"Okay, go out first and let me think for a while."

"Yes Yes!"

The man felt as if he had been pardoned and quickly left the room.

Xu Tianran sat in a wheelchair, looking at his reflection in the window, his breathing gradually becoming unsmooth.

The impact of this incident is really too great.

Just looking at the apparent losses, there were dozens of high-level soul masters including Ye Yulin.

Ye Yulin is the third-ranked soul engineer in the Sun-Moon Empire, and is also the most proficient genius in the production of high-altitude soul guides in the entire Sun-Moon Empire. In the field of high-altitude soul guides, even Kong Deming may not be able to surpass him.

The loss caused by his death cannot be glossed over.

In addition, the deaths of people from the Ordinary Alliance and the Aodu Chamber of Commerce also gave Xu Tianran a headache.

The death of the two Soul Douluos, An Litong and Shangguan Weiler, would not cause any harm to Xu Tianran.

The problem is that An Litong and Shangguan Weiler are not only Soul Douluo, but also the leaders of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce and the Ordinary Alliance.

Behind them stand the military and the aristocracy. Once they join hands, even the Sun and Moon royal family will have to give them some ground.

This underground soul guide competition was initiated by Xu Tianran. Part of the responsibility for the deaths of these two people must be attributed to him. If the people behind these two forces make trouble, Xu Tianran will definitely not feel good.

Besides this, there are more important things.

Thinking of this, Xu Tianran's face became even uglier.

Who are the attackers? How did they get the ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shells?

Even Long Xiaoyao, who specialized in martial spirit cultivation, could tell that the explosion was caused by a ninth-level fixed-type spirit guide shell. Of course, the spirit guides of the Sun-Moon Empire would not be wrong.

Just as Zhongli Wu immediately ruled out the possibility that Douluo originally belonged to the Three Kingdoms after learning that the explosion was caused by a ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shell, Xu Tianran also found it difficult to figure out where the attackers got such strategic weapons.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. From the sound of the knock, one could tell how hesitant the visitor was.

Xu Tianran frowned and asked in a deep voice:

"Who?"

"Your Highness, it is you, Jing Hongchen."

"Lord of Hongchen Hall?"

Xu Tianran was slightly startled, then quickly adjusted his expression and said with a smile:

"Come in."

Originally, it was almost certain that he would inherit the throne, but after this incident, it is no longer certain.

It is foreseeable that those opponents who had been defeated by him would take this opportunity to rally themselves and try to make a comeback.

Therefore, a neutral character like Jing Hongchen is particularly important at this time.

Although Ye Yulin is the third-ranked soul engineer in the Sun-Moon Empire, there are people who approach him. Jing Hongchen is one of them. The two of them once had a competition, and the result of that competition was a draw.

If Jing Hongchen could be brought into his camp, then he would be able to at least recover some of the losses caused by this incident.

However, what surprised Xu Tianran was that Jing Hongchen, who entered the room, looked extremely pale.

Xu Tianran suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Jing Hongchen's eyes wandered for a while, and finally he gritted his teeth and said sadly:

"Your Highness, you must make the decision for me!"

"...What's wrong? Speak slowly."

Xu Tianran's ominous premonition became stronger.

Jing Hongchen suddenly knelt on the ground with a plop and said sadly:

"Our Mingdetang warehouse was robbed."

"What did you say?!"

If Xu Tianran wasn't a disabled person, he would have jumped out of his wheelchair by now.

He knew very well what the theft at Mingde Hall meant.

As the largest soul guide workshop in the Sun-Moon Empire, the wealth accumulated by Mingdetang is something that even the Sun-Moon royal family is very wary of. It is also one of the biggest reasons why Xu Tianran dared to start a war.

It is no exaggeration to say that Ye Yulin's death is nothing compared to the theft of Mingde Hall, which could really shake the foundation of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Xu Tianran squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.

"Any clues?"

"Have."

Jing Hongchen suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with resentment.

"It's the Holy Spirit Church."

After noticing the explosion caused by Huo Yuhao, Jing Hongchen also noticed that it was caused by a ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shell.

With the idea of ​​being prepared for the worst, Jing Hongchen went to take a look at Mingdetang's underground warehouse.

This inspection was not a big deal. When Jing Hongchen saw the empty warehouse, he almost fainted.

This was the wealth accumulated by Mingdetang over hundreds and thousands of years, and it all disappeared in an instant. Even if he used his life as collateral, he could not afford to pay for it.

After finally coming back to his senses from the feeling of despair, Jing Hongchen immediately investigated the seemingly empty warehouse.

Even if he had to dig three feet underground, he would definitely find the clues left by the thief.

Soon, he found the clues left by Huo Yuhao.

It was true that Huo Yuhao originally intended to put the blame on the Benti Sect.

But during the semi-final match with the Holy Spirit Church, Huo Yuhao discovered through various clues that the relationship between the Sun-Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Church was not as harmonious as it seemed.

It makes sense. Many of the evil soul masters in the Holy Spirit Church can no longer be considered human. Even if the Sun-Moon Empire is willing to cooperate with them, both sides must have a trick up their sleeve.

After discovering this, Huo Yuhao temporarily changed his mind and changed the clues he left behind to those unique to evil soul masters.

Facts have proved that the effect is outstanding. At this time, Jing Hongchen is almost mad with anger. He came to Xu Tianran this time on the one hand to apologize for his crime, and on the other hand to ask for an explanation from the Holy Spirit Church.

Hearing the three words "Holy Spirit Church", Xu Tianran's mind suddenly went blank.

Yeah, how could he forget about these guys.

Considering the various suppressions he had inflicted on the Holy Spirit Church in recent days, Xu Tianran suddenly realized that this group of guys might indeed do such a thing to weaken the power of the Sun-Moon Empire.

The Sun-Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Church are both partners and have always been checking and balancing each other.

This is because they all believe that the other side will never let them go after the war.

Judging from this, that group of evil soul masters must have already used some uncanny means to escape early.

Evil soul masters generally have strong ability to preserve their lives, which Xu Tianran had already witnessed.

"Your Highness!"

At this moment, Jing Hongchen's shrill scream woke Xu Tianran up again. Xu Tianran blinked and came to his senses.

He was in no mood to pretend anymore. His expression turned completely cold as he said to Jing Hongchen:

"I understand, Master Hongchen, don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you in the future."

"Later? How long is later?"

Jing Hongchen was very keenly aware of the most critical point.

Xu Tianran's expression became even uglier. He sighed and said:

"I don't want this to happen either, but the country is in need of manpower right now, and we can't fall out with the Holy Spirit Church yet."

The theft of Mingde Hall and the recent explosion have dealt a heavy blow to the Sun and Moon Empire.

Originally, they were not absolutely sure of dealing with the Holy Spirit Church, let alone now.

If those two Extreme Douluo escape, it will be an endless nightmare for the Sun-Moon Empire.

Extreme Douluo are beings who can easily destroy a city, and they are absolutely invincible when fighting guerrilla warfare.

"...I understand."

Jing Hongchen was silent for a long time, and finally answered like this.

The Holy Spirit Church is simply too powerful. There is really no chance of winning by confronting this extremely powerful evil soul master organization head-on.

He stood up and said in a somewhat disheartened tone:

"Then I will leave first."

"Ah."

Watching Jing Hongchen leave the room, Xu Tianran's face became expressionless, as if he was wearing a mask.

He thought for a moment, called his subordinates in, and ordered:

"Go call the Imperial Master, I have something to discuss with him."

So time went back to the present, and Xu Tianran didn't have to wait too long. Soon, Zhongli Wu came to his room.

"Your Highness, do you have something to ask me?"

For some reason, Xu Tianran always felt that Zhongli Wu's voice was a little hoarse.

The same was true for Zhongli Wu. In his opinion, the coldness in Xu Tianran's eyes was about to overflow.

Both people in the room thought they were being tricked by the other, but they were both afraid of the other's power and did not dare to reveal their cards.

A strange misunderstanding thus occurred.

Xu Tianran forced a smile and asked:

"National Master, how are the preparations for the secret realm you mentioned for dealing with the powerful men from the Three Kingdoms progressing?"

Zhongli Wu said coldly:
