Douluo: I am ready to leave the Spirit Hall. The system will come.
Chapter 214 The new emperor ascends the throne
"Dean, in the end you still don't believe me!?"
"Mu Bai, what are you doing!?"
"You don't believe me, do you? Look carefully here!"
"Mu Bai!?"
"So I said, it was Tang San who caused me harm!"
"Mu Bai, are you lying?"
"Yes, I did say a little too much...! Dean, you must make the decision for me!"
The LCD screen was playing the scene where Dai Mubai took off his pants and cried in front of Flanders.
The person who broadcast this footage was even cruel and cunning enough to give a close-up of Dai Mubai's abdomen.
At this moment, Dai Mubai's face had turned the color of liver.
Even if life has not ended, the imperial election must have ended...
When Ettore saw this scene, he was speechless for a while.
Originally, he wanted to analyze why the situation was not favorable to Dai Mubai, and what the influence of public opinion was...
It's meaningless now.
There is no need to say more.
Ettore had a complicated expression: "Mu Bai..."
As soon as he uttered two words, Dai Mubai's body softened and he fell to the ground.
Dai Mubai has fainted.
He no longer wanted to think about how this scene was recorded and how it was shown in the Imperial City. It was not just the Imperial City that was broadcasting it...
……
Imperial city and palace.
"Monardo, you need to give me an explanation."
The emperor's majestic voice sounded.
Amona looked confused: "Explain, what do you mean? Nothing I did was against the rules of the game, right?"
The emperor slammed the armrest heavily, and his face, which had always been calm, suddenly showed a rage: "What you did was indeed in accordance with the rules, but where do you put the face of the royal family!?"
In front of the emperor, an elder looked at Amona dangerously: "Monardo, I doubt whether you take the royal family seriously."
In front of him on the right, the majestic face of the military minister was also gloomy: "Your Highness, the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce may have indeed given you many gifts, but you must not forget your roots! Moreover, as the heir to the throne, you can only show favors! Don't let others control you because of small favors!"
The emperor, royal family, and military, the three most powerful people in the Xingluo Empire attacked at the same time!
It’s easy to imagine their dissatisfaction with Amona.
In fact, even the emperor would not object to Amona's victory in the imperial election, but she or the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce behind her openly exposed the royal scandal to the public, causing a huge blow to the reputation of the royal family and the empire, which naturally caused great resentment.
This phenomenon further extends to the fact that Amona does not care about the reputation of the royal family.
Not caring about the royal family's reputation and doing such things made Amona's inclination towards the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce more obvious in their eyes.
Dai Mubai had lost his fertility and naturally had no chance of becoming emperor, but they hoped to resolve the matter privately, quietly strip Dai Mubai of his title as crown prince, and imprison him as a criminal.
The "explanation" that the emperor asked at the beginning was what he wanted Amona to answer. She had no prior knowledge of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce knowing that Dai Mubai had been eunuched.
They hoped that Amona had not known in advance that Dai Mubai had no chance of becoming emperor, and had cooperated with the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce to allow Dai Mubai to participate in the competition for the emperor's election, and then eliminated him in this way.
Even if this choice is indeed a good strategy, from the perspective of a country's leader, there are huge hidden dangers.
These...Amona naturally knew.
Knowing that such a move would exacerbate his conflict with the Imperial authorities.
But if you don't do this, can you become the emperor smoothly?
Unless she becomes the only candidate for the crown prince, gradually weakens the influence of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce, and then quietly waits for the current emperor to abdicate voluntarily, it will be impossible for her to ascend the throne smoothly.
The shortest time required is ten years.
ten years? Twenty years?
How could she possibly wait that long!?
Moreover, everything she does after taking office will subvert the original traditions and structure.
All of this means that conflict is inevitable.
At this moment, a mocking voice sounded.
"Are you saying that my disciple has done something wrong? Or are you accusing our Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce of interfering too much and accusing us of wanting to control the Xing Luo Empire?"
It was a figure dressed in black, whose face seemed to be distorted by an invisible force and could not be seen clearly.
Seeing You Chen appear silently, as if he had been standing next to Amona from the beginning, but none of them noticed it, whether it was the emperor, the elders or the military ministers, they all showed shock.
The other party appeared here openly, but the formations and defense measures of the palace did not respond at all.
If the word "disciple" had not made them realize the identity of the visitor, they would probably have been unable to restrain themselves and attacked at this moment.
But even so, those in power will not look happy.
This is especially true for the emperor.
"I guess this must be Senior Beast Soul, right? I naturally respect your status and strength. If it were in another setting, I believe we would have a pleasant conversation. But... isn't it a bit too much for you to interfere in the dispute over the crown prince of our Xingluo royal family?"
The emperor's tone was unfriendly.
It's not that he didn't fear or respect You Chenfeng's strength.
Rather, it is a matter of the royal family's reputation and their status and interests, which means that he cannot retreat.
This is different from the time with the Heaven-level killer. The other party has intervened so deeply in the Xingluo Emperor Selection. If he really wants to dig up the roots, there is no room for retreat.
You Chen shook his head and sighed softly: "I have given you a chance."
The emperor frowned slightly. He was very unhappy with You Chen's condescending attitude and tone.
But such a look was almost non-aggressive to You Chen. He sneered and said, "You sent two Soul Saints to bully the weak. Since the imperial election involves Xingluo's imperial power, I did not take action. This has given you enough face. Even the treasure that healed my apprentice's foundation was paid for by me out of my own pocket. Now that things have come to this, Monardo just did what you said within the rules of the game, and you are questioning us?"
At this moment, You Chen looked at the emperor as if he was looking at a dead person.
Such well-reasoned words made the emperor and other powerful officials present change color and look embarrassed.
"You are so shameless... Since you don't want to play by the rules, don't blame me for flipping the table."
You Chen grinned and smiled slightly.
"you!?"
The emperor slammed the table and stood up, his anger not concealed at all.
An old woman quietly came to the side of the clan elder in front of the left of the emperor, their eyes met, and their soul power surged.
The military minister narrowed his eyes and stared at You Chen, paying extra attention.
But You Chen pointed his finger into the void, and a seemingly ordinary ray of starlight with no energy fluctuations shot out from his fingertips.
No one had time to react before the light beam hit the emperor, vaporizing him instantly.
A great hero, a top Soul Fighter, died so casually.
This incredible scene shocked everyone present.
Even the two elders who had already prepared their martial soul fusion skills were horrified and stopped the fusion of their soul power.
They simply could not understand how You Chen killed the emperor.
This means that even if their martial spirits are fused and they possess title-level combat power, there is no guarantee that they can survive a single move from You Chen.
'How could the president of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce be so powerful!? '
This was what everyone present was thinking.
The emperor had just died, but the ministers, nobles, and royal guards present had no reaction at all.
For a moment, it was as if someone had pressed the pause button, and the scene was extremely quiet.
"Remember, if you want to play by the rules, then we will play by the rules. But if you don't respect the rules... next time, I will just start a fight without rules."
When the words fell, everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to find that the figure had disappeared.
The smart people present all knew exactly what the so-called "rules" meant.
……
It can be said that the death of the emperor was planned by the Beast Soul Alliance from the very beginning.
Even if there was no reason in the imperial palace, You Chen would find other excuses.
The reason was simple. He didn't have the time to wait for the emperor to slowly transfer power to Amona.
In order to get Amona to the throne as quickly as possible, of course it would be easier to just kill the emperor.
With You Chen's ability, he could assassinate the emperor quietly without being noticed by anyone.
But even if it was an assassination, anyone with a bit of common sense in the empire would know that it was his work.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to kill the emperor instantly in public, showing the absolute and irresistible strength, so as to have a deterrent effect.
Those who believed that the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce was using Monardo as a puppet would not dare to act.
However, continuing to kill people is not a good thing, at least not at this stage.
A certain amount of terror is a deterrent, but absolute terror brings despair and will directly drive people crazy.
Even if the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce develops for another five to ten years, it will not be able to gather the manpower to perfectly take over the management of the Star Luo Empire.
Therefore, as long as You Chen does not want the Xing Luo Empire to fall into turmoil, he must leave hope for the powerful people of Xing Luo.
That is to say, "continue to play within the rules of the game."
If the emperor is killed directly, even if there is an absolutely strong person to suppress and deter him, the bad influence cannot be completely eliminated.
You Chen could guess that after that, some nobles were afraid of him and secretly spread the bad reputation of him, Amona and the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce.
This is also the reason why Qian Renxue did not let Qian Daoliu or the Super Douluo of the Worship Hall directly kill the Emperor Tiandou.
If Qian Renxue dares to kill him, the Tiandou Empire will be torn into pieces.
But Xingluo’s current situation is a little different.
The Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce does not have enough manpower to completely take over the entire empire, but taking over on the surface is not a problem.
That is to say, it is impossible to send a large number of personnel to every city, but it is not a problem to send a certain number of personnel to each district and province to control the core cities.
Moreover, the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce has now established interest ties and deep ties with more than 30% of the nobles in the empire.
Even if they wanted to sever this relationship, they would not dare to do so considering the powerful strength of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce.
Unless these nobles are connected and mobilized by one will.
But this is obviously close to impossible.
In addition, there are naturally more nobles with superficial connections.
Simply put, the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce is now too big to be eliminated.
Even if the rulers of the empire wanted to get rid of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce, many nobles and people would hold them back and oppose it.
In this way, Xingluo welcomed its new emperor.
The day a new emperor ascends the throne is also his wedding day.
Amona became the emperor and Zhu Zhuqing became the queen.
The first thing the new emperor did after ascending the throne was to abolish the old imperial election system, which naturally aroused fierce opposition from the royal family.
The outcome of the matter was ultimately that Amona won.
The royal family was angry and unwilling, but also somewhat relieved.
Because this time, the powerful Beast Soul Guild President did not show up. Just as he said himself, as long as the game is played within the rules and his disciples are not bullied, the Beast Soul Guild does not care about the struggle for imperial power.
Perhaps it was this kind of concession that prevented them from taking any other actions after the failure of this struggle, and from pursuing the emperor's death any further.
Many dignitaries also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Because the great upheaval they expected did not happen.
It was as if the person who was openly killed in the palace before was not the former Xingluo Emperor, but an insignificant passerby.
……
"Look, you have been lurking in Tiandou for many years, and you are still the crown prince. Not to mention your control over the country, you haven't even dealt with all the potential competitors who could threaten your throne."
In Tiandou Imperial City, You Chen looked at Qian Renxue with a look of disappointment: "What have you been busy doing all these years? First, your master has no support from the Spirit Hall, and second, he started from scratch, but it only took two years from the actual action to the completion of stealing the country."
Qian Renxue lowered her head, her body shaking uncontrollably.
There is a feeling of being speechless.
When You Chen looked at the completed task prompt, he knew that his eldest disciple's defense had been completely broken.
But he did not feel the satisfaction of completing his revenge as he had imagined. Looking at Qian Renxue whose face was pale, pupils were out of focus, and who was speechless, he felt a little disappointed.
Snake Spear and Thorn Pig stood behind Qian Renxue, sweating profusely as they watched You Chen drinking tea with a look of disappointment on his face.
It is said that if the master is humiliated, the servant will die. However, the one who brought the ultimate humiliation to their master was his most respected teacher. What else could they do except sweat profusely?
You Chen sighed softly, put his index and middle fingers together, pressed against Qian Renxue's chin, and made her look up and look at him.
He met Qian Renxue's absent-minded eyes and said in a cold voice: "Don't you understand yet? In this world where the strong are respected, power is only a subsidiary of strength. You have the potential to reach the peak directly. Instead of going through all the trouble of lurking and disguising, wouldn't it be more convenient and quicker to directly usurp the country by force after reaching the peak of your cultivation than to resort to this thankless trick?"
You Chen suddenly raised his voice, glared, and scolded: "Qian Renxue! It's time to wake up!" (End of this chapter)
