Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Clay, the Creator of All Things

From any perspective, Xue Qinghe is an outstanding successor.

Unfortunately, he was just too outstanding!

His talent was so outstanding that even the emperor was wary of him.

He's still young on this snowy night!

Xue Ye had secretly planned to slow down the growth of Xue Qinghe's forces.

The growth rate of the delay relief association.

Unfortunately, he failed.

Those nobles are really not up to any good.

The support that the Spirit Hall gave to Xue Qinghe far exceeded his expectations.

Even now, the snowy night has been forced to this point.

If Xue Qinghe had relied solely on his own strength to grow and become powerful to where he is today, that would be one thing.

Unfortunately, Xue Qinghe was backed by the power of the Spirit Hall.

With such strong support from the Spirit Hall, one can imagine what they want.

Xue Ye was truly worried that Xue Qinghe might accidentally destroy the entire Tian Dou Empire.

We must be careful!

How could the vast empire of the Heavenly Dou Empire be destroyed by Xue Ye?

Thus, Xueye also began to consider a way to maintain a balance of power.

Chapter 230 Get out!

Currently, a significant portion of the military power in the entire Heavenly Dou Empire is in the hands of Xue Ye.

This is also why he was able to maintain his position on the throne.

However, even with hundreds of thousands of troops, the limited military power he held was far from enough to put Xueye at ease.

The military is important, but strength is fundamental.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so wary of the Spirit Hall.

If the entire Heavenly Dou Empire were to reach a critical moment, it would not be difficult to mobilize an army of millions.

But what can a large army do?

If a powerful figure like a Title Douluo were to truly attempt to assassinate and behead him on Xue Ye's behalf...

Even amidst a large army, one would still feel terrified on a snowy night.

Why did the Heaven Dou Empire split up, and why has the royal family been weak for so long?

Xue Ye knew perfectly well that the problem lay in the martial spirit inheritance of his Xue family.

Without producing a powerhouse at the level of a Title Douluo, relying solely on political maneuvering is ultimately limited.

Of course, military power was equally important, so Xueye recruited his younger brother, Prince Xueye, to join his cause.

There are some things we still need to do by borrowing Xuexing's power.

For example, Dugu Bo.

Xueye is now unsure of the attitude of this guest retainer of the royal family.

Logically speaking, Dugu Bo should be on Lu Yan's side, which is equivalent to being on Xue Qinghe's side.

However, Dugu Bo's attitude towards Prince Xuexing was quite subtle.

This left Xueye somewhat uncertain, making it imperative to win over Prince Xuexing as an ally.

Moreover, Prince Xuexing's power and wealth are not to be underestimated.

Of course, all of this is just an add-on.

After much deliberation, Xueye ultimately chose the Upper Three Sects.

Only the three upper sects possess the power to rival the Spirit Hall.

At the very least, if she could win over the three upper sects and combine them with her own strength, Xue Ye was confident that she would be able to protect herself.

However, the problem is that the Haotian Sect is a useless piece of trash!

After Tang Hao's incident, who was the person most worried about at the Haotian Sect?

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon School, both of which are among the top three sects.

Or should the Haotian Sect decisively cut off its own limbs and seal itself off from the mountains?

No, that's not it!

The person I'm most worried about is him on this snowy night! It's him on this snowy night!

No one knew better than Xue Ye how terrifying a force the Spirit Hall would be without checks and balances.

If the Spirit Hall were to unleash its full power, it would have the capacity to overturn the entire continent.

Doesn't Xue Ye know? Doesn't the Dai family of the Star Luo Empire know?

As the emperors of the two great empires standing at the top of Douluo Continent, they knew this better than anyone else.

But what can be done?

No one expected that the Haotian Sect, the number one sect in the world, would be so cowardly!

If the Haotian Sect had been a little more assertive, it would have had the support of the other two major sects, plus the covert efforts of the two empires.

And the support of the two great empires and various sects.

It is impossible to allow the Spirit Hall to be so rampant. That incident may well be resolved peacefully through the mediation of all parties.

At least, the world of Soul Masters wouldn't be like it is now, a disorganized mess, completely dominated by the Spirit Hall.

A mere commoner like him is not worth discussing things with!

The Haotian Sect is truly hopeless; they've wasted their top-tier bloodline inheritance.

However, Xueye still secretly met with Tang Yuehua, the representative of the Haotian Sect stationed in Tiandou City.

Tang Yuehua's Yuexuan was able to gain a foothold in Tiandou City, naturally thanks to Xue Ye's support.

However, this meeting only brought Xueye utter disappointment.

The group of useless people from the Haotian Sect refused all his offers, citing the need to close the mountain.

Seriously, they're courting death.

If the Haotian Sect is unreliable, then what about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?

Xueye had considered it, but quickly gave up.

There's no other reason than that Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, is Xue Qinghe's teacher.

Lu Yan is a core disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and the cooperation between the Rescue Association and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is so close that they are intertwined.

Xue Ye knew perfectly well what Ning Fengzhi was planning.

Knowing that Lu Yan was an elder appointed by the young master of the Spirit Hall and that his relationship with the Spirit Hall was extraordinary.

But they consistently turned a blind eye, and went even further by linking the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School with the Rescue Association, or rather, Lu Yan.

He even went so far as to enroll his own daughter in the charity's affiliated college for this purpose.

Ning Fengzhi's intentions were self-evident.

Since neither the Haotian Sect nor the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can be relied upon, the only one Xueye can count on is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.

This time, Xueye was not disappointed, although the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had a rather large appetite.

But ultimately, a consensus had already been reached two years ago.

This is all thanks to the pills from the Lu Clan Chamber of Commerce, and the whale glue medicinal cuisine passed down from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

It was precisely because the royal family possessed a collection of ancient whale glue that everything proceeded so smoothly.

It was precisely because of the whale collagen medicinal cuisine and the Lu Clan Chamber of Commerce's top-grade elixirs that this was possible.

Only Yu Luomian of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was able to break through the bottleneck and reach the level of a Title Douluo.

Of course, what delighted Xueye even more was that the Soul Douluo secretly cultivated by the royal family also broke through through this opportunity.

Two Contra players have broken through to level 90.

With the help of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, he successfully hunted a soul and completely advanced to become a Title Douluo.

This is also the source of Xueye's confidence now.

With these two royal titled Douluo, the Tian Dou Empire's foundation is now at least no worse than that of the Dai family of the Xing Luo Empire.

Moreover, after the Qi and Blood Guiding Exercise became popular, Xueye immediately arranged for people to study it.

The results have been remarkable.

Despite the fact that the royal treasury and the royal captive soul beasts were almost emptied during the snowy night, a royal elite knight order of 20,000 men was still able to be assembled.

Among them, the elites have all reached a level of Qi and Blood cultivation comparable to that of a Great Soul Master, and those with exceptional talent are even capable of fighting against Soul Masters without being defeated.

With two titled Douluo and this elite royal knight order at his disposal, Xue Ye was finally able to calm his restless mind.

Otherwise, he would be filled with anxiety and unable to sleep at night.

Even the finest delicacies and finest wines would taste bland and tasteless.

"We've already received a reply from Sect Master Yu," Xue Ye said slowly, her voice tinged with a tired hoarseness.

"The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan's forces are already on their way."

"The date is set for the grand court assembly seven days from now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Imperial Study fell silent.

Standing to the left of Prince Xuexing, Xue Beng spoke first, his tone tinged with a sinister undertone: "Father is wise! The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is one of the three upper clans, with a profound foundation. With the assistance of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan..."

"This time, we will surely be able to make Xue Qinghe surrender without resistance. He has colluded with the Spirit Hall, and he is completely unworthy of the position of Crown Prince!"
