Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

"Beast!"

Unable to pretend to be asleep, Liu Erlong could only open his eyes and mutter a curse.

Although she was furious with this little wolf, she had to admit that he was very strong, extremely powerful, and even a titled Douluo like herself couldn't withstand him.

"get out!"

Seeing that the person was still not leaving after the hot water was prepared, Liu Erlong glared at him in embarrassment and annoyance.

"Senior sister, you're not feeling well right now, let me help you wash."

Tian Hao was full of tenderness. Since his father-in-law was treating this Soul Master Competition as their honeymoon, he naturally couldn't let his father-in-law down.

I absolutely must win over this Senior Sister Long'er during this competition and officially become a Dragon Knight.

And he wasn't lying; the drug did indeed have some side effects, such as temporary weakness and soreness.

Seeing that she couldn't stop the little wolf, Liu Erlong could only helplessly close her eyes and stop looking at that hateful face, but she soon couldn't stand it anymore.

"You're shameless!"

He glared angrily, feeling a bit scared inside. Why was this little wolfhound here again?

……

After another fierce battle, Tian Hao finally carried his senior sister Long'er, who had fallen into a coma again, out to another room, gently placed her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then returned to the previous room to clean up.

It must be said that this is a top-tier hotel run by the royal family. The interior is luxuriously furnished, and even the suites are extraordinary, with a total of four bedrooms that can be used in rotation.

After all, the smell of the sea generated by each battle doesn't dissipate so easily; it takes two or three days to open the windows for ventilation.

After finishing the cleaning and changing the sheets, Tian Hao went to the balcony and admired most of Xingluo City.

This room has a great location, offering a view of most of Xingluo City, and even the Imperial Palace.

Compared to Tiandou City, Xingluo City is in no way inferior, but the atmosphere is more serious.

This is mainly related to the ruling philosophy of the Star Luo royal family. Just look at how cruel their struggle for the throne is, and you'll understand how their emperors became emperors. It's far beyond what the Heaven Dou family can compare to.

Correspondingly, the Star Luo royal family has a stronger control over the country, and even the kingdoms and duchies under its jurisdiction do not have much disloyalty.

There's no way around it; the Star Luo Empire not only has formidable military strength but also a very tough stance. If you don't behave, they really dare to send troops to attack you.

Of course, the most important thing is that the Star Luo royal family has titled Douluo, plus their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, which makes it no problem for them to contend with Super Douluo. This is a major source of their confidence.

After the cataclysmic changes in the world, the achievements of the Star Luo royal family's powerful members will be elevated to a higher level.

"It's not easy to cause trouble here, so we can only start with the Youming Zhu family."

While sipping his tea, he kept an eye on the area where the Zhu family was located.

As a family chosen for marriage alliances by the Star Luo royal family, the Zhu family naturally held a high position in the Star Luo Empire. They not only possessed the hereditary title of Grand Duke, but their family mansion was also located next to the imperial palace. There was even a special gate there, making it no exaggeration to say that it was part of the imperial palace. This demonstrates the favor the Star Luo royal family bestowed upon the Youming Zhu family.

However, no matter how much favor he receives, he is still just a subject.

“Ambition needs sufficient strength to be stimulated, and the Youming Zhu family is still a bit weak.”

Thinking it over, Tian Hao didn't want the Star Luo Empire to be too harmonious, as that would be quite detrimental to their plan for the future unification of Martial Soul City.

"It's time to cultivate the dark attribute."

Tian Hao decided to focus his next training on the dark attribute, intending to use this opportunity to strengthen the Netherworld Zhu family and fuel their ambitions.

He didn't believe that the Youming Zhu family had no ambitions at all, but that they were just suppressed by their own rationality. As long as they had enough strength, those suppressed ambitions would grow rapidly sooner or later.

As long as the Netherworld Zhu family and the Star Luo royal family can be sown apart, the Star Luo Empire will be no threat.

"It seems there's a dark god from the divine realm who belongs to the Asura God's camp. Should we arrange something for Zhu Zhuqing?"

Recalling the information about the gods in the divine realm, Tian Hao felt that he could plot against the god of darkness.

It could even be said that the positions of the gods under the command of the God of Asura could be planned.

As long as they show enough resistance, making it impossible for the Shrek Seven Devils to handle the situation with their original strength, the God of Asura will definitely try to improve, and demoting more gods is an efficient approach.

Among the seven elemental gods belonging to the Asura God, there is a God of Darkness, whose name alone suggests that he must be a master of the dark element.

There aren't many dark element martial souls in the Douluo Continent. The strongest one is Ghost Douluo. However, Ghost Douluo is one of them and cannot come into contact with the divine inheritances, otherwise all their secrets will be known to the gods.

This is also a major reason why they are not in a hurry to unify the continent. They want to use the powerful geniuses of the two great empires and various forces as bait to lure more gods from the divine realm to descend to their divine positions.

Moreover, the central hub of the divine realm was shattered by that piece of jade, and so much spiritual power was transferred from the divine realm. Life there must be difficult, and more gods will inevitably want to abdicate their divine positions and run away.

This is the opportunity.

However, the Netherworld Cat's grade is a bit low, not a top-tier martial soul. We need to find an opportunity to strengthen it, otherwise, that ambition might not grow.

"Let's go shopping later."

Hearing the commotion inside the room, Tian Hao turned around and made a suggestion.

"Not interested!"

With a cold expression, Liu Erlong decisively refused.

How long has it been since you last dressed up?

Tian Hao's question caused Liu Erlong to fall silent.

Since that day, she has never cared about her appearance. She simply washes up every day and has never used the lipsticks and face powders she used to like.

"Since I have to wear the mask all the time anyway, it's pointless to use it."

After a long pause, she replied coldly, "It's not that Liu Erlong doesn't want to go shopping, it's that she doesn't want to go shopping with that little wolfhound."

She had been tormented by that little wolfhound before, and the thought of his antics still makes her heart race and her teeth itch with anger.

Moreover, her identity cannot be revealed for the time being. She has to wear a mask during the Soul Master Competition, and no one can see her even if she dresses up.

"Show me."

Tian Hao countered that although he didn't like women to wear heavy makeup, making them look like completely different people, a simple touch-up of light makeup could undoubtedly improve their appearance.

Liu Erlong was already quite beautiful, which she probably inherited from her mother. After all, it was no easy feat to be captivated by someone like Yu Luomian. A little light makeup would definitely enhance her appearance.

In the end, Liu Erlong couldn't outmaneuver the little wolf, and was dragged away from the hotel to wander around Xingluo City.

Shopping may truly be a woman's nature. Although she may not be very willing at first, once she starts, she can't help but get involved and quickly buy a lot of things. Even when night falls, she still feels like she hasn't had enough.

After shopping for four days in a row, they bought so much stuff that they filled a storage soul tool.

"Someone has been following us for most of the day."

After walking out of a clothing store and glancing to the side, Tian Hao reminded Liu Erlong.

He had noticed he was being followed earlier and quickly identified the person as someone he knew.

Liu Erlong was stunned. She turned her head and looked over. When she saw that familiar back, she couldn't help but tremble. She instinctively pulled her hand back from the little wolf dog's leash.

"Boss Francis?"

"Go back to the hotel yourself, I'll wander around a bit more."

After saying something to a certain little wolfhound, Liu Erlong chased after the figure that was quickly leaving.

After watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Tian Hao smiled but didn't chase after them, continuing to stroll around alone.

On the other side, Liu Erlong followed Flander and hurried along, soon arriving at a secluded tavern.

After ordering a drink, Flander sat down by the window and drank it silently.

"Long time no see, Mr. Francis."

Liu Erlong walked over and sat down, his mind filled with complicated emotions.

Looking back now, they realized that it had been eleven years since they last met, and they never expected that their reunion would be like this.

"It's been eleven years."

After downing the drink in his glass, Flanders sighed, a bitter and gloomy expression immediately settling on his face.

"I can tell you're doing well, which puts my mind at ease."

His original intention in coming to the Star Luo Empire was to watch the preliminary rounds of the Star Luo region, assess the level of the academies here, and see if it was suitable to open an academy here.

There was no other way; things were too complicated in the Heaven Dou Empire. Shrek Academy, which he founded, couldn't recruit any outstanding students, so he had no choice but to come to the Star Luo Empire to see if there was any opportunity for development.

Unexpectedly, he saw Liu Erlong in Xingluo City. Although she was wearing a mask, he recognized her at a glance.

He was overjoyed and excited when he first saw the third sister, but his mood immediately changed when he saw her holding hands with a man.

Seeing that Flander was in a bad mood, Liu Erlong didn't know what to say, and the two fell into silence.

"Aren't you going to ask how Xiaogang is doing? Have you forgotten about him?"

Finally, Flander couldn't help but break the silence, and his tone even involuntarily carried a questioning tone.

How could Erlong so quickly fall into the arms of another man?

Have you really forgotten Xiaogang and me?

What good will it do to not forget?

A bitter look appeared on Liu Erlong's face; she had truly come to terms with it now.

“He has parents, brothers, family, clan, ideals, and revenge. If I insist on being with him, then everything he has will be over.”

I can disregard the world's opinions, but I can't selfishly make Xiaogang bear all that burden. Perhaps our meeting was a mistake from the very beginning.

Although I don't want to admit it, that little wolfhound was right. I was too stubborn and selfish before. I only thought about my love for Xiaogang and never put myself in Xiaogang's shoes.

It was precisely because of her deep love for Xiaogang that she was even more unwilling to hurt that man; she couldn't be so selfish.

Flander was surprised by Liu Erlong's answer and wanted to refute it, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute it.

Are you suggesting we try to persuade the brother and sister to get together?

If Erlong were still obsessed with Xiaogang, he could say so, but now that Xiaogang has let go, how could he have the face to say it?

"Perhaps you are right."

After a long silence, Flander sighed.

He couldn't find any reason to blame Erlong, because Erlong had made the right choice; perhaps their initial encounter really was a mistake.

If everything starts wrong, the process and the ending can't possibly be right either.

"How is Xiaogang doing now?"
