Douluo: Dragon King Huo Yuhao Lives Ten Thousand Years Later

Chapter 240 The bait prepared by Xingluo is too tempting.
Xu Chengzhi's eyes gleamed as he gazed at the Tang Clan's encampment in the distance.

Dragging Shrek Academy into the mire was a plan that Xingluo had been preparing for hundreds of years. From the Tang Sect's support for Xingluo to the flow of human pills into the Tang Sect's branches for corruption, they had been preparing for hundreds of years.

Now, the Tang Sect branch can no longer get rid of the Human Pill and has completely become a bargaining chip for them to scheme against the Federation.

How tragic, Shrek Academy.

Compared to the newly formed Holy Spirit Church and Federation, you are like remnants of the old era, immersed in past glories, giving aid to Xingluo with an almost condescending attitude, unaware that you yourselves are the pawns.

Before you leave the stage of history, give one last bit of effort for the Starry Sky and the Holy Spirit Teachings.

Whether you are suppressed by the Federation or you cause chaos in the Douluo Federation, it is the Federation's power that is being consumed!
For us, Xingluo, this is victory!
Mo Yan also looked in that direction, a look of regret on his face. "It's a pity that the Spirit Pagoda was smarter than Shrek Academy in this respect, and didn't give us any leverage. Otherwise, if the Spirit Pagoda and Shrek Academy, two major powers, had a falling out with the Douluo Federation, the plan would have gone much more smoothly."

Xu Chengzhi looked away and shook his head.

"Once the Holy Church welcomes the Holy Son and Holy Daughter back, it can use other methods to drag the Spirit Pagoda into the game. We can just wait for a while."

Upon hearing this, Mo Yan frowned and said, "Your Majesty, forgive my ignorance. If we act against them and are detected as suspicious, it will be a formal declaration of war against the Douluo Federation. Are we truly prepared? Even including the Heaven Dou Continent, we are still far behind the Douluo Federation, not to mention that the Holy Spirit God has not yet been revived..."

Over tens of thousands of years, the gap between the two sides has indeed widened considerably.

If it weren't for the fact that the Holy Spirit Church excels at quick results, the gap would only be greater.

Even if Shrek Academy is outmaneuvered and causes internal strife within the Federation, it doesn't mean they can gain the upper hand.

In his view, this exchange was enough to bring Shrek Academy into the game; they could actually accumulate strength for a while longer.

"The Douluo Federation is brimming with talent this generation; if we wait any longer, we'll miss a golden opportunity."

With a confident smile on his face, Xu Chengzhi walked to the window and looked down at the brightly lit Star Luo City. "Shrek Academy's strength is naturally inferior to that of the Federation, but once the conflict between the two sides fully erupts, it will be enough to set off a fierce war within the Federation. More importantly, this will bring chaos, and then we can take the opportunity to do more things."

"After all, the internal troubles of the Douluo Federation are not limited to Shrek Academy alone. Shrek is just the first force to be eliminated, but it is by no means the last."

The night breeze brushed against Xu Chengzhi's face, carrying a slight chill, but it could not extinguish the burning ambition in his eyes.

After internal strife with forces like Shrek Academy, how will the Douluo Federation resist us, the Star Luo Cult, the Heavenly Dou Cult, the Holy Spirit Cult, and... the Abyss?

Thousands of years ago, you used more than half of your power to resist the abyss. In the future, when you face us and deal with the abyss at the same time, will you still have such power left?
The Star Luo Federation cannot find its own savior, and so can your Douluo Federation...

……

Pan Wen looked at the documents in his hand, his expression growing increasingly serious.

"Is this true? Is the Tang Sect really consuming the Human Pill? And providing support to the Star Luo Sect?"

In front of Pan Wen, a member of the secret service nodded solemnly, "Yes, this is the result of my personal investigation."

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, even this member of the secret service who followed Pan Wen's orders wouldn't have believed that the Tang Clan had actually done these things.

Treason and betrayal, and the internal soul masters degenerating into evil soul masters, are all serious crimes. If proven true, Shrek Academy's reputation of tens of thousands of years will be ruined in an instant.

Pan Wen's fingers dug deep into the edge of the document, his knuckles turning white with excitement.

This is what he wants, and it's also what some of the federal high command need!
He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down: "Is the evidence conclusive?" The Dark Guard took out a soul-guided video recorder from his pocket. After injecting soul power, the image clearly showed Tang Sect disciples exchanging human pills and weapons at a secret stronghold. Even more chilling was that several figures dressed in Star Luo Empire military uniforms were prominently featured among them.

Besides the scene captured on camera, there were also numerous documents. Pan Wen opened the encrypted file handed to him by the Dark Guard, his pupils suddenly contracting. It contained a detailed list of supplies that the Tang Sect branch had transported to Xingluo over the past three years, including even the design blueprints for seven unique soul tools from Shrek Academy.

"good, very good."

Despite the intelligence being information that could potentially plunge Shrek Academy, one of the four major powers in the Federation, into the abyss, Pan Wen couldn't help but smile.

He wanted to see what expressions the doves and neutrals in the Federation would have now.

"My lord, should we deliver this information to His Highness the Amorous One? He and the higher-ups at Shrek Academy may not know about what's going on here."

After the secret agents left, Pan Wen's trusted secretary came over and said hesitantly.

He knew Pan Wen was happy right now, but he had to pour cold water on his enthusiasm.

If Secretary-General Pan Wen, a strong contender for the next Speaker of the Federal Parliament, is allowed to exert his influence, those charges could very well be pinned on Shrek, and the Federation would then face a civil war.

Given Shrek Academy's influence and strength, if things go wrong, the Federation could be severely damaged.

Pan Wen paused, glancing meaningfully at his secretary.

“I know you’re worried about the Federation, but this message must get back. After all, we’ve waited too long; this is the best opportunity to get rid of Shrek!”

Outside the door, Nanali, who was about to knock, paused upon hearing this, sighed softly, and turned to leave.

These are turbulent times; we're going to be busy from now on.

……

"The bait prepared by Xingluo is too tempting; this is an open conspiracy."

After leaving the theater, Huo Yuhao had a conversation with Xue Di in the Sea of ​​Spirit, saying, "The hawks and the Federation's high-ranking officials who want to purge Shrek will push forward the Star Luo plan."

If the hawks want to start a war, they can't avoid the neutral faction led by Shrek and the doves. Now that an opportunity to suppress the representatives of the neutral faction is right in front of them, they will naturally not let it go.

Those high-ranking officials in the Federation who are dissatisfied with the Shrek Kingdom within a Kingdom will also take the opportunity to cause trouble, and even some people inside the Spirit Pagoda will participate.

All Xingluo needs to do is dig a hole, and numerous forces will each kick Shrek Academy into it and bury it.

Xue Di nodded slightly with her divine sense, "You were prepared for the purge of Shrek Academy, weren't you? That's why you left that kind of information for the Holy Spirit Cult and the Dark Division through Lan Fuzi and the Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master."

"It takes more than one day for ice to freeze three feet deep. The conflict between the Federation and Shrek Academy was bound to erupt sooner or later."

Huo Yuhao's gaze narrowed slightly. "And I need to take something from Shrek Academy that poses a deadly threat to us..."

The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

It's still unclear who schemed against whom and who took advantage of whom.
