Douluo Continent: Starting with the inheritance of the God of Destruction, we will destroy Tang San.

Chapter 302 The Great Battle Is Imminent

Great meeting!

Since His Majesty the Emperor took a break and handed over full power of the Sun and Moon Empire to the Crown Prince, the court has become the Crown Prince's personal fiefdom.

Previously, they had worked together with Ye Yulin to purge a bunch of corrupt officials in the imperial court and the army.

The empire is now in a state of peace and prosperity.

When Crown Prince Xu Tianran proposed to send troops to attack the Brilliant Duke, all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.

The Brilliant Duke is a duke who guards the northern part of the Sun and Moon Empire and is deeply trusted by the emperor, but for some reason, he decided to establish his own kingdom.

How could the Sun and Moon Empire agree to this?

However, no action was taken until the Crown Prince was made, in order to establish the Crown Prince's authority.

I just didn't expect it to happen so quickly; he had to go to war before even ascending the throne.

What will His Majesty think? His Majesty isn't dead yet!

But now that Xu Tianran has brought it up, no one is thinking about it anymore, and everyone agrees with what Crown Prince Xu Tianran said.

The entire court is under the control of Crown Prince Xu Tianran, and it is the perfect time for him to establish his authority. Who would dare to say no at this moment?

Isn't that like walking right into the line of fire?

Thus, the discussion on the topic of "conquering the glorious Duke" has entered its final stage.

Suppressing the rebellion of the glorious Grand Duke was neither particularly difficult nor particularly easy.

After all, he was a duke who guarded a region and even declared himself king; his power was certainly not to be underestimated.

But for the entire Sun Moon Empire, it's not worth mentioning.

Xu Tianran planned to use a feint to seize control of the Holy Spirit Sect with overwhelming force, thus gaining a good reputation.

They have both a sufficient pool of experimental "talents" and a reputation.

Kill two birds with one stone!

Therefore, it was immediately decided to send troops to advance.

Not only that, after the grand assembly ended, Xu Tianran also privately communicated with Ye Yulin.

Tell him to prepare to wipe out the Holy Spirit Cult in one fell swoop!

……

The Northern Region of the Sun and Moon Empire, the Glorious Grand Duke's Mansion.

The illustrious Grand Duke, who was stationed in the north, suddenly rebelled, only because the emperor was about to die and the court was in turmoil.

The imperial court was too busy to care about its own problems, so even if someone rebelled, it wouldn't pursue the matter.

Therefore, they boldly declared themselves an independent nation.

However, still fearing the power of the Sun and Moon Empire, they only requested to establish their own duchy, while all other tributes remained unchanged, and they were even willing to double their tributes.

We only wish to be a vassal state of the Sun and Moon Empire, hoping to gain its recognition.

But now, the illustrious Grand Duke, who is over seventy years old, is incredulous when he hears that the imperial army is going to eliminate the rebels.

Were they labeled as traitors?

Didn't we agree that as a vassal state, they would pay tribute every year? Why are they attacking now?

"Empire? What does that mean?"

The magnificent Grand Duke, seated on the dragon throne, held the declaration of war presented by the special envoy of the Sun and Moon Empire, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

This is a total of five Soul Master Corps, including two Guardians of the Nation (Terror Claw Soul Master Corps and Imperial Dragon Soul Master Corps), which can be called a nation-destroying army and can be used to attack the Douluo Three Kingdoms!

The envoy from the Sun Moon Empire was arrogant, showing no regard for the other party as if they were an emperor.

Because he doesn't deserve it!

Enjoying the empire's preferential treatment and His Majesty's trust, he actually committed such a treacherous act; he deserves to die!

"No!" Grand Duke Glorious hurriedly explained, "We are doing this for the safety of the empire. Establishing ourselves as a nation gives us more autonomy to fight against the Heavenly Soul Empire from the north. We have no intention of disrespecting the empire!"

However, the special envoy looked directly at the Emperor of the Heavenly Soul Empire and said leisurely, "You'd better wait until you've said that to the Crown Prince and His Majesty!"

"Insolence!" A young man standing next to the Brilliant Duke couldn't stand it any longer and drew his sword, charging towards the envoy.

However, the special envoy remained calm and unhurried.

Although it is said that one should not kill envoys in a war, it is inevitable that the other side may become enraged and kill you directly.

Therefore, he was well-prepared for his missions and would always make sure to explain his affairs clearly beforehand.

He really hoped that the other party would cleave him in two with a single sword strike.

This gives the empire even more reason to attack the Brilliant Duke; as for its own safety, that is not important!

So, with a calm expression, she didn't take him seriously at all: "So, who are you?"

"I am Zhao Yang, the eldest son of the illustrious Grand Duke, the first in line to the title, and the Grand General of the Duchy!" The man said arrogantly, pointing his sword at Zhao Yang's neck, "Do you want to die?"

"Me? You want to die? Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"

"Hey! Stop! Get out of here!" Grand Duke Glorious shouted hurriedly.

"Father, since we've already turned against the Empire, what difference would it make if we killed him?"

"Besides, with the emperor on his deathbed, would the crown prince really dare to attack us? Isn't he afraid the emperor will think he's seizing military power and trying to ascend the throne?"

"Enough! Get out of here!"

I'm currently reading the latest chapters!

The Brilliant Duke naturally wouldn't let him kill the man, and directly ordered him to step back.

"Okay!" Zhao Yang took a deep breath.

"Special Envoy, may you speak to the Crown Prince and ask if we may relinquish our title and submit to his rule?" The Brilliant Grand Duke clapped his hands, and four servants brought in a chest of gold.

The envoy merely glanced at it before turning and leaving, leaving behind the words "Take care of yourself" before departing.

The people in the main hall looked at each other.

Even the Magnificent Duke felt that he was about to die.

How should we deal with this?

However, only Zhao Yang stepped forward and said, "Father! Your son is willing to lead the army and fight against the Empire!"

No matter what, the Brilliant Duke was a duke trusted by His Majesty, ordered to guard the northern part of the Sun Moon Empire to prevent the invasion of the Heavenly Soul Empire. His soldiers were not cowards either, and he believed that he could defeat the Empire with his leadership of the Empire's Soul Master Corps.

Otherwise, what right do they have to establish themselves as a country?

Looking at his eldest son's confident demeanor, the Brilliant Duke felt utterly exhausted. He had listened to slander and established his own kingdom.

Hoping that His Majesty is on his deathbed, at the very moment of power transfer, the Crown Prince will not rush to send troops.

Even if he were to send troops, it would only be after he had stabilized the situation and used himself as an example to establish his authority.

How could it be so fast!

He hasn't even finished communicating with the Douluo Three Kingdoms yet!

Now that the empire refuses to accept their submission, don't blame me for uniting the three kingdoms!

"Very well! I hereby appoint you as Grand Marshal of the Army, to command the entire Glorious Army!"

"Thank you, Father Emperor!"

The Magnificent Duke looked at the resplendent hall and took a deep breath.

This time, he's going to have to spend a fortune on Douluo Three Kingdoms!

At the same time, the troop movements of the Sun Moon Empire attracted great attention from the three kingdoms of Douluo.

Apart from the dormant Douling Empire, which does not border the Sun Moon Empire, it does not harbor much hostility towards the Sun Moon Empire.

It's not as intense as their covetousness of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

After all, the two great empires were once one family.

Everyone wants to devour the other and become the vast Heavenly Dou Empire of ten thousand years ago.

The Heavenly Soul Empire, which borders the territory of the Glorious Duke who has established his own country, was the first to receive this news.
