Douluo Jueshi: Who made him a soul mentor!

Chapter 187 Taking Control of the Sun and Moon!

After witnessing the empire's high-ranking officials bowing and kneeling to Wang Chen to pledge their loyalty, Xu Jing...

The rage in his chest erupted like a volcano. An endless fury surged into his heart.

Consumed by rage, crimson blood spurted from Xu Jing's mouth.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Jing staggered, his expression became dazed, his face turned ashen, and then his vision went black as he plummeted from the sky above Mingdu.

"His Majesty!!"

"Oh no! His Majesty has fainted from anger!"

Upon seeing Xu Jing faint, two loyal, clean-shaven, white-faced attendants immediately rushed down and caught Xu Jing as he fell from the sky.

Although the two eunuchs were rootless, they were loyal to Xu Jing and did not change their allegiance to Wang Chen despite the changing situation.

The two servants looked at Xu Jing with concern, then one of them took out a spirit pill from his storage soul tool and fed it into Xu Jing's mouth.

Another person infused their soul power into Xu Jing's body to help him refine the elixir.

The two servants looked extremely grim. They were inseparable from Xu Jing and knew a great deal about his physical condition.

Xu Jing's health has been deteriorating in recent years because he suffered a severe blow when he plotted to seize power.

He has been relying on medication to stay alive, but now he is consumed by anger, which is damaging his health, and his condition is not optimistic.

You must rest quietly, otherwise, you might just collapse from a sudden fall.

While Xu Jing was so angry that he fainted, Wang Chen and many other level-nine soul masters who had pledged their loyalty to Wang Chen also shifted their attention to Xu Jing.

After discovering that the emperor had fainted from anger, some of the level nine soul masters lowered their heads in embarrassment, clearly feeling ashamed for betraying Xu Jing.

Some had dark eyes, with a hint of murderous intent in their gaze.

After all, they had already betrayed Xu Jing and sided with Wang Chen. Naturally, they didn't want Xu Jing to live, and they even planned to purge the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire.

Otherwise, if something really happens in the future and the royal family turns the tables, then these traitors will definitely not have a good ending.

Wang Chen looked at the unconscious Xu Jing, his deep, bright eyes, as clear as the starry sky, revealing a slight ripple.

Xu Jing, whom he used to treat with utmost caution and even had to accept a marriage alliance to avoid losing his life, is now nothing more than an ant to him, and even his life and death are in his hands.

Let them live if they will, let them die if they will.

This change in status and position made Wang Chen feel a surge of joy, just like enjoying an ice-cold soda on a hot day.

Wang Chen was naturally not worried about Xu Jing and the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire. They were too weak; he could destroy them with a single slap and they couldn't harm them in the slightest.

If he wanted to make a move, a mere thought of his divine sense would be enough to subdue any member of the royal family.

Of course, considering that the Xu family of the royal family has ruled the Sun Moon Empire for too long and has too much prestige, destroying them like this would have too great an impact, and the people of the Sun Moon Empire would probably be thrown into chaos.

Therefore, Wang Chen plans to first subdue the high-ranking officials of the Sun Moon Empire, and then effectively rule the entire Sun Moon Empire.

Then, through strategies such as the upcoming war against the Douluo Three Kingdoms, he will enhance his own prestige and weaken the influence of the Xu family.

Once we conquer the three kingdoms of Xingluo, Tianhun, and Douling, and unify the world, the Black Book might be able to be fully restored.

Wang Chen's status, power, and prestige will reach their zenith, unmatched by anyone.

When the time comes, we should take action against the Xu family, control them using soul contracts, and kill those who are ignorant.

Frankly speaking, whether or not Wang Chen deals with the Xu family is irrelevant to him and will not affect him in the slightest.

However, Wang Chen had to consider the Wang family members and the powerful individuals who had pledged allegiance to him.

He is destined to ascend to the realm of gods, and may even travel to other worlds with the help of the Black Book.

If he doesn't deal with the Xu family properly and resolve this hidden danger, the Wang family members might not be able to stand up to the Xu family.

It's possible that members of the Wang family and other powerful individuals who have pledged allegiance to Wang Chen will suffer a backlash from the Xu family.

Now that Wang Chen has reached his position, he can't just think of himself anymore. If he were to simply leave without doing anything, countless people would be harmed. Wang Chen thought to himself, "Before I ascend to the God Realm and leave Douluo Star, I must resolve all potential threats."

The Wang family also needs to be improved, and we should also leave them some means to deter the mainland.

Otherwise, if I ascend to the God Realm with my family, the ordinary members of the Wang family, without the protection of a powerful figure and lacking sufficient strength themselves, will inevitably suffer greatly.

Wang Chen glanced at the unconscious Xu Jing, then scanned him with his divine sense, gaining a clear understanding of Xu Jing's background.

Judging from his physical condition, Xu Jing doesn't have many days left to live; at most, he will die of old age within a year.

Then, Wang Chen turned his gaze to Kong Deming and several level-nine soul masters from the Sun Moon Royal Family.

These are the few who haven't yet submitted to him.

Wang Chen calmly asked, "Teacher, are you going to object to me?"

The level nine soul masters who had already submitted to Wang Chen immediately stood behind him and tried to persuade Kong Deming.

They had all received guidance from Kong Deming, so naturally they couldn't let Kong Deming make the wrong choice.

After all, Wang Chen's strength is too terrifying; it's simply beyond human capability to defeat. Going against Wang Chen is pure suicide.

Ye Yulin said eagerly, "Elder Kong, Lord Wang Chen is invincible and truly deserves the title. Only under Lord Wang Chen's rule can the Sun Moon Empire prosper and conquer the world!"

Luanfeng said, "Master Kong, you are not surnamed Xu, and the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire has little to do with you, so there is no need for you to side with the royal family."

Jing Hongchen said, "Elder Kong, let me give you a piece of advice: recognize the situation. Wang Chen is the one destined for greatness!"

"........."

Faced with the words of Wang Chen and many other level-nine soul masters.

Two loyal servants protected the unconscious Xu Jing, looking around with solemn vigilance.

They both felt that neither of them was a loyal subject, and that both were about to betray His Majesty.

Kong Deming looked at his disciple Wang Chen and sighed deeply.

He knew that the Sun Moon Empire's royal family was now at a critical juncture of life and death; if things went wrong, the entire clan could be wiped out.

Judging from the situation, Wang Chen didn't intend to kill them; otherwise, he wouldn't have used spatial confinement to restrain them, but rather spatial collapse to crush them.

However, just because things are fine now doesn't mean they will be fine in the future.

He was all too aware of the cruelty of power struggles; not to mention the distant past, just look at Xu Jing in recent times.

After seizing the throne and wielding power, he killed all of his brother's wives, sons, daughters, and confidants, leaving none alive.

Now that Wang Chen's strength has increased dramatically, he wants to surpass the emperor and take control of the Sun Moon Empire.

Therefore, the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire inevitably became a thorn in Wang Chen's side.

What he needs to do now is to leverage Wang Chen's status as a teacher and play the emotional card.

Furthermore, it represents the absolute submission of the Sun Moon Empire's royal family to Wang Chen, fully cooperating with Wang Chen to dominate the Sun Moon Empire and rise above the emperor.

In short, we must do everything in our power to persuade Wang Chen to show mercy, to avoid a major purge, and to give the royal family a way out.

Kong Deming was fairly confident about this, after all, the royal family and Wang Chen had no enmity between them.

Furthermore, Wang Chen married Princess Xu Tianzhen. Since they are all relatives, they can talk things over easily.

Kong Deming said, "Chen'er, on behalf of the Sun Moon Empire's royal family, I promise that from now on, the Sun Moon Empire's royal family will be supreme under your authority, obey your commands, and follow your orders without question!"

After saying this, Kong Deming led several level-nine Soul Masters with the bloodline of the Sun and Moon Royal Family to bow to Wang Chen, expressing their submission.

At the same time, deep within Wang Chen's soul, the black book suddenly trembled, and its damaged parts rapidly began to heal...
