Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 326 Holy Spirit Cult: Loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor, Loyalty to the Grand Preceptor

After a day of indulging in idleness and waiting to die, Emperor Douling, who was about to take a good nap with his beauty but was tragically struck by misfortune, is now extremely clear-headed, his brain working faster than ever before.

Zhongli Wu said that the title of Douluo in the Hall of Worship had been reversed, but the Douling Emperor did not believe it at all.

But he didn't dare to refute.

Because Zhongli Wu really did as he said, he twisted off the head of the Hall Master of the Offering Hall, the strongest person in the Douling Empire, and the level 97 Heavenly Sun Douluo.

It was thrown right in front of him. Tianyang Douluo's face was filled with terror; he probably died with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

To kill this level 97 Super Douluo, the opponent must have been at least level 97, or at most a level 98 Super Douluo or even the legendary Limit Douluo.

In short, Emperor Douling knew he was no match for them, so he dared not refute their words. Instead, he wore a bitter expression and chose to back down.

"Gentlemen of the Soul Masters, please have mercy! Take whatever you fancy from my palace, just spare my life, okay?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, Your Majesty, you must be really frightened. Wuyun, what did you do? Weren't you supposed to appease His Majesty?"

Zhongliwu cursed.

Wu Yun Douluo, quite sensibly, knelt down and echoed Zhong Liwu, saying, "Reporting to the Sect Master, your subordinate acted improperly and alarmed His Majesty. We beg the Sect Master's forgiveness!"

"Go to hell! What good is it for me to forgive you? You should beg His Majesty for forgiveness!" Zhongli Wu kicked him, seemingly genuinely angry.

"From now on, we will all have to make a living for His Majesty. Whether I can become the Imperial Advisor depends on His Majesty's mood, understand?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Wu Yun Douluo, possessing formidable strength, was completely unharmed despite being kicked by Zhongli Wu. He turned and bowed respectfully to the Douling Emperor in apology, then coldly stated:

"Your Majesty, our leader is loyal and powerful. I believe that if Your Majesty wishes for long-term peace and stability, and even to defeat the Heavenly Soul and recover the old capital, the position of Imperial Preceptor must be held by our leader."

Emperor Douling trembled with fear, cautiously shifting his gaze to Zhongli Wu. Then he saw the mysterious cult leader throw away Tianyang Douluo's head and then somehow acquire a scepter, holding it with an imposing air, truly possessing the demeanor of a national advisor.

Normally, he would be more than happy to have such experts willing to come to the Douling Empire to enjoy wealth and glory, but the group of people in front of him are clearly abnormal!
These guys' arrogant demeanor and eerie entrance effects practically screamed "I am an evil spirit master." The guy in front of me who wants to be the national advisor is probably the legendary Holy Spirit Cult Master.
Even the mighty Emperor Douling dared not allow this group to control the court, and was even more worried about angering them and having them kill him. So he carefully stepped back and said in a humble voice:

"My esteemed sir, how could our Douling Empire, with its limited territory, possibly accommodate such a wondrous figure as yourself? I, the young emperor, am willing to empty the national treasury for you all, but I beg you not to make things difficult for me, is that alright?"

"Oh?" Zhongli Wu's eyes lit up, as if he were seriously considering it: "His Majesty said he was willing to empty the national treasury?"

"Yes, everyone, take whatever you want!" Seeing that the other party was somewhat interested, the Douling Emperor immediately showed a fawning smile, inwardly cursing Shrek Academy for being incompetent.

They even claim to be monitoring the continent, yet these evil spirit masters have already stormed into my palace!

Unfortunately, things continued to go wrong. After exchanging a few words with the Emperor Douling, Zhongliwu lost interest in teasing him and started laughing loudly, his laughter disdainful and rampant.

"Foolish, foolish! Even if I kill you, your money will still be mine! Your Majesty, you don't really think you're some kind of supreme emperor, do you? Hahahaha..."

Wu Yun was also laughing, but soon received a fierce glare from Zhongli Wu. His expression turned cold, and he grabbed the Douling Emperor by the neck, lifting him up and warning him:
"Your Majesty, if you wish to maintain your dignity, you can continue to sit on your throne and be your emperor; if you do not wish to maintain your dignity, we have plenty of ways to help you do so!"

"See this lake? The only one who can save you now is our leader. He's in a bad mood because he can't become the Imperial Advisor. When he's in a bad mood, he won't restrain us. And when I'm not restrained, I like to throw people into the lake..."

"After you die, we can also turn your corpse into a puppet. We'll do some superficial work, and it won't be too different from a living person. As for your soul... hehehe, have you ever heard of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner?"

Emperor Douling was lifted into the air, his legs thrashing about, his face deathly pale with fear, and he repeatedly cried out:
"I want to be dignified, I want to be dignified! Imperial Advisor, please come and save me..."

"Understood, Your Majesty, I will come to your rescue immediately!"

Zhongli Wu's spirits lifted, and he waved his hand to send Wuyun Douluo flying. He then stepped forward and grabbed the hand of the Douling Emperor, appearing utterly loyal.

"Your Majesty, there are treacherous officials and villains both inside and outside the court, who constantly harbor thoughts of deceiving the emperor and plotting rebellion. We beg Your Majesty to share your burdens!" Emperor Douling trembled violently, his face pale, and said in a trembling voice, "I am incompetent; I do not know who those treacherous officials and villains are..."

Zhongli Wu said solemnly, "Of course, it refers to all members of the royal family except for His Majesty's lineage. Your Majesty, I request to exterminate the Xue family royal family!"

"Huh?" Emperor Douling was stunned. Slaughtering all his relatives? You're even more ruthless than the Sun Moon Empire.

“Those nobles, big and small, who hold real power in their fiefdoms, act like local emperors and don’t respect His Majesty at all! These people do whatever they want in their respective fiefdoms, ruining the reputation of the country. They all deserve to die!”

Zhongli Wu raised his hands, his face filled with grief and indignation, and said, "Your Majesty, how can the Douling Empire be governed well while surrounded by these insects?!"

"We, your humble servants, are willing to lead our troops to slaughter all the nobles, high and low, within the kingdom for Your Majesty! We will utterly exterminate these treacherous and disloyal individuals!"

"Even those nobles, big and small, who fled from Tianhun, Xingluo, and even the Sun and Moon Empire, dare to come to our country to leech off our wealth and feast on us. It's simply outrageous! Your Majesty, it's time to take action! Slaughter them all, confiscate their property and exterminate their entire families!"

"In this way, Your Majesty can regain control of the country, nationalize all the land, enrich the national treasury, build the Soul Guidance Legion, destroy the Heavenly Soul, contend for supremacy in Star Luo, shatter the Sun and Moon again, and rebuild the glory of Heavenly Dou!"

"At that time, His Majesty will be the greatest sage ruler in the history of the Xue family, whose achievements will be remembered for all time!"

Zhongli Wugan loved whatever he did, and he especially loved being the national advisor. He didn't care which country it was from, as long as he was the national advisor. His compassionate and empathetic nature made him a truly loyal and devoted minister.

Emperor Douling's mind nearly exploded after hearing the other party's plan. Even the Sun Moon Empire hadn't gone so far as to crack down on all the nobles in the country, had it? And you've gone straight to the point?

As for the promise of "meritorious deeds that will last for generations and a name that will be remembered in history," Emperor Douling really wanted it, but he knew his own limitations and knew that he would only be a puppet for the other party.

However, he had no choice. It was better to live a miserable life than to die, not to mention that his death would be pointless anyway.

"Then let's do as the Grand Preceptor says. From today onwards, all state affairs will be entrusted to the Grand Preceptor. From now on, this palace..." Emperor Douling decisively backed down, hoping to preserve his good fortune in the future.

"Hahaha, Your Majesty, rest assured, I will send enough Title Douluos and Soul Douluos to guard the palace day and night from now on, and I will never allow any treacherous officials or petty villains to disturb Your Majesty's happy days!"

Zhongli Wu turned around and summoned four Title Douluos, ordering his subordinates to protect the palace. Then, he smiled and offered a brilliant plan:

"Next, Your Majesty, please issue a decree ordering all the nobles of earl rank and above, as well as those exiled nobles, to come to Lingdou City. I will prepare a grand banquet for them..."

Emperor Douling readily agreed, thinking to himself that this grand banquet was probably not meant to be served with them as food.

But... my ministers, I have no choice. Blame Shrek Academy for their ineffective bandit suppression and for allowing these evil soul masters to develop to this extent.

Emperor Douling quickly found a scapegoat in his mind, which greatly alleviated his pain.

"Furthermore, the soul guidance technology of your Douling Empire is too poor. Our sect has a ninth-level soul guidance master who has studied in the Sun Moon Empire. I request Your Majesty to allocate domestic resources to build a sufficient research environment for the soul guidance masters."

"We also need to collect rare metals from across the country; these resources are indispensable for building the Soul Guidance Legion..."

"Everything is as the Imperial Advisor said."

"Hahaha, His Majesty is truly a peerless emperor who governs through non-interference, hahaha..."

Zhongli Wu laughed heartily, turned around, and issued a kill order:

"What are you all waiting for? Hurry up and offer your loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor! From this moment on, every Title Douluo must retrieve the head of a prince from the Xue family. Those who act quickly will be richly rewarded by His Majesty, and you can choose any high-ranking official position you like..."

"His Majesty the Emperor is loyal! The Grand Preceptor is loyal!"
