Chapter 1264 It's you who should protect the empire, Kong Deming.
Chapter 1264 It's you who should protect the empire, Kong Deming.
"You should go back now."
Inside the dungeon, Kong Deming spoke to Xiao Ye No. 1, who had returned to his cell.
"What are we going back for?" Little Leaf No. 1 was still lying on the haystack.
"Go back and inform your main body that an abyssal creature has appeared in the Sun Moon Empire!" Kong Deming vaguely realized that Xiao Ye No. 1's calmness might be because Ye Nanxiao already knew about this.
But he wanted Ye Nanxiao to provide more information.
Xiao Ye No. 1 could naturally see through Kong Deming's grand scheme, but he had not received a summons from the main body.
"No rush, no rush. Even the main body isn't in a rush, so why should I?"
"Besides, you've known me for quite some time now. Do you think I'm someone who's indecisive?"
Kong Deming looked at Xiao Ye No. 1 with a mixture of anger and helplessness.
He has now been dismissed from his position as Grand Master and his power has been taken back. In the past, he would have ignored it, but now he feels immense pressure.
Beating the king whip has no effect.
He could only wait for the right opportunity to capture Xu Tianran.
The best solution would be to make Xu Tianran lose the support of the people, but the cost of that would be too high.
Therefore, Kong Deming has been suffering every moment these past few days.
"You know, this is a troublesome matter, but since the main body is already taking action, forcibly seizing it won't be a good solution," Little Leaf No. 1 said seriously.
Even now, the Sun Moon Empire is still ruled by Xu Tianran's absolute authority.
It's unlikely that the people of the Sun Moon Empire will see Xu Tianran's true colors.
Therefore, Ye Nanxiao's plan was not to expose Xu Tianran.
Instead, they were waiting for Kong Deming.
Kong Deming, who possesses the bloodline of the Sun and Moon royal family, is the most reasonable candidate to "crash the party".
But Kong Deming himself doesn't seem to realize it.
This shows that, Lao Kong, his bottom line is still not flexible enough, nor is it low enough.
Xiao Ye No. 1 was the secret weapon that Ye Nanxiao left for Kong Deming.
Kong Deming remained silent, seemingly pondering how to deal with the abyssal creatures.
"I say, old man Kong, you can't stop the invasion of abyssal creatures by yourself. Right now, there's no way to stop it," said Little Leaf No. 1.
With the current level of soul tools in the Douluo world, it is not yet possible to inflict a significant blow on the Abyss.
There are too few high-end combatants, and the creatures of the abyss are not afraid of death.
The most dangerous situation is when we get caught in a vortex where our high-end combat capabilities are crippled.
As for Kong Deming's concern about why abyssal creatures would appear in the Douluo World.
Isn't the answer obvious? It's none other than Zhongli Wu, the top leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, who can scare vampires to death.
Xiao Ye No. 1 lay down for a while, then suddenly got up and looked at Kong Deming, who had been staring at him.
"What are you looking at?"
"Wait until you come up with a solution."
Kong Deming is now acting like a rogue. He knows that if Little Ye No. 1 doesn't disband, it means it's still part of Ye Nanxiao's plan.
He himself was too caught up in the situation to see clearly, so it was best for Ye Nanxiao to guide him.
Xiao Ye No. 1 stared at Kong Deming for a while, then said, "Old man Kong, do you know you're wasting your time?"
"I roam freely wherever I please, yet here I wait—waiting for whom? For you!"
"The one who should protect this empire, the one who should safeguard everything in this empire, is you, Kong Deming."
The words struck Kong Deming like a bolt of lightning, sending a jolt through his body.
Is striking the king's whip really that important?
"That's just an opportunity for you, but the choice is always in your hands."
"Why did I agree to help you train Xu Tianzhen!"
"The soul tool technology I gave you, and everything the Audu Chamber of Commerce did in secret."
A mask suddenly appeared in Xiao Ye No. 1's hand.
"If you can't let go of your identity as Kong Demingde, then become Ming Dekong."
Kong Deming stared at Xiao Ye No. 1 with an expressionless face, practically as if the word "speechless" was etched on his forehead.
He turned and left, ignoring Xiao Ye No. 1's clamor.
However, Xiao Ye No. 1's words did give him a slight reminder.
"If I can't let go of my status."
He is Kong Deming, the father of the soul guide device of the Sun Moon Empire, a member of the Sun Moon royal family, a Grand Elder, and a former general.
With so many identities, his will was firmly bound together.
Kong Deming returned to his residence and then took out the intelligence sent to him by the palace spies from a hidden compartment.
"Is Zhongli Wujia going to be appointed General and take over Little Orange's identity?"
After reading the intelligence report, Kong Deming burned it.
Then, the soul power within his body began to circulate rapidly, producing muffled thunder. His somewhat aged face quickly became younger, and his figure grew taller.
Zhongli Wu is a member of the Holy Spirit Cult, a malignant tumor. He must not be allowed to touch the army or the core strength of the empire.
Kong Deming could roughly guess what Xu Tianran was thinking. It was nothing more than Xu Tianran being too confident and thinking he could control Zhongli Wu.
What is the source of Xu Tianran's confidence?
Besides himself, besides the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Corps being able to utilize the massive war beasts beneath the palace, there is also him, the Guardian Douluo of the Sun Moon Empire, Kong Deming, the Bright Moon Douluo.
"The abyss brought by Zhongli Wu is full of terror, and I am not confident that I can restrain it."
Kong Deming took out a mirror and looked at his youthful face.
He then took out a piece of metal and melted it directly in his hand.
After a cup of tea, a person wearing a blue robe and a dark metal mask took over Kong Deming's identity.
"Ming Dekong? Hmph, my name is Ming Ye!"
"Mingye" took a step and disappeared from the spot.
Hunters still roam the lands of the Sun and Moon Empire.
In the Great Sun Hall, after reading the intelligence relayed by the secret guards, Xu Tianran raised a ball of purple flame in his right hand and burned it away.
The purple flame was very hot, which made Feng Rong, who was busy working under the table, involuntarily step back.
"Hmph, serve me well!"
Xu Tianran's eyes were bloodshot. He grabbed Feng Rong's head and pressed it down.
A strong sensation surged up from his tailbone.
When the lingering effects of the sensation dissipated, Xu Tianran finally released Feng Rong, letting her go to wash up.
"Dark One," Xu Tianran said.
A dark shadow immediately appeared in the hall.
The latest novel is first published here!
"Investigate who this Xu Lai is," Xu Tianran said with a gloomy expression.
According to intelligence, there is still a large amount of rare metals being traded both inside and outside the empire. The reason why the Heavenly Soul Emperor was able to possess so many advanced soul tools was because of a man named Xu Lai.
"Xu Lai, Xu Lai? Xu Lai!"
Xu Tianran's eyes turned red again, like a demon crawling out of hell.
"How dare you obstruct my conquest of the world!"
"I will make you pay the price!"
At first, Xu Tianran wondered if Xu Lai was a member of the royal family.
But upon closer inspection, it turned out not to be so, because all the male members of the royal family had been monitored and imprisoned by him.
There is no trace of the name Xu Lai in the family genealogy.
Who is it?
Xu Tianran closed his eyes slightly and leaned back on the throne.
His thoughts raced.
Xu Lai seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, leaving no trace.
However, this person was able to obtain a large number of high-end soul tools.
The surname Xu is not common in mainland China.
Xu Tianran knew that there was a sect in the Heavenly Soul Empire called the Xuanming Sect, and all its disciples were surnamed Xu.
However, the Xuanming Sect has no relation to the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire; their family trees are separate.
Could they be from the Xuanming Sect?
Xu Tianran pondered this possibility.
A quarter of an hour later, a guard came to report.
Zhongliwu summoned another batch of abyssal creatures.
Xu Tianran waved his hand, instructing him to take the offering to the hall, and to continue supervising Zhongli Wu and the Holy Spirit Cult.
He wanted to ensure that Zhongliwu's every move was under his surveillance.
If anything goes wrong, the crushing cannon aimed at Zhongliwu will fire.
That's right, Xu Tianran allocated a piece of land to the Holy Spirit Cult.
Nominally, he was funding the empire's Grand General, but in reality, he was monitoring him.
Zhongli Wu didn't care and simply handed over the integrated Holy Spirit Cult.
Furthermore, to avoid trivial matters, they used spiritualism as a cover name.
Under Xu Tianran's instructions, Zhongli Wu spent most of his time in the Holy Spirit Cult's secret chambers, except for integrating the Holy Spirit Cult and occasionally opening a spatial rift to have the Lava Lord send some cannon fodder over.
This relieved the guards overseeing the Holy Spirit Cult.
After all, Zhongli Wu was considered an extremely dangerous individual by them.
Inside Zhongliwu's secret chamber, a bodyguard delivered the intelligence and then quickly withdrew.
"Can't find Ye Nanxiao? You're all utterly useless! You don't even dare go to Shrek Academy!"
Zhongli Wu crushed the intelligence report in his hand.
Ever since he returned, he has been searching for Ye Nanxiao's whereabouts.
He had a premonition that this guy would definitely disrupt his plans.
Just like the previous invasion and encirclement plans, they were all ruined by Ye Nanxiao who suddenly appeared.
Zhongli Wu couldn't understand how many eyes Ye Nanxiao had.
Why is it always him?
As a dignified Death God Douluo, it seems I've always lived in Ye Nanxiao's shadow?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
"Even if Ye Nanxiao cultivated from the womb, it's impossible for him to repeatedly scheme against me!"
Zhongli Wu snorted coldly, and a terrifying killing intent surged within the secret chamber.
Suddenly, a malevolent spirit master broke into Zhongli Wu's secret chamber.
A red light emanated from his body, blocking Zhongli Wu's ferocious killing intent.
"Zhongli Wu! You summoned me here; you'd better have good news! Otherwise, be prepared to pay the price of a thousand lives to quell my anger!"
Zhongli Wu glanced at the man, then stood up and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
The Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler was summoned by Zhongli Wu.
"My lord, I have discovered a new world..."
Zhongli Wu depicts the Abyss World as a world filled with nothing but energy and cannon fodder.
This immediately piqued the interest of the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord.
If it can absorb the energy of this world, why would it fear Di Tian?
No, directly become the ruler of that world, and then cultivate to become a god!
It is an evil god!
"Very good! Zhongli Wu, you did a great job! You lured that giant stone monster here! I'll devour its soul! Then I'll help you deal with Shrek Academy!"
Zhong Liwu's lips curled into a cold smile.
He can also use one tiger to devour another. (End of Chapter)
