Think of an Excuse

"So it seems we have no choice but to give up this Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud!" Xue Ye's face showed a hint of bitterness. Even if he was the ruler of a country, he still had to compromise when facing a true powerhouse.

Xue Ye really didn't dare to take the risk of facing a level 99 Ultimate Douluo, especially since the other party was currently in the Heaven Dou Imperial City. If things didn't go his way, the other party might come to the palace and take his head. How could he not be afraid?

The Heaven Dou Imperial Family doesn't even have two Titled Douluo, so how could they possibly withstand a level 99 Ultimate Douluo? If Long Xiaoyao wanted to kill him, it wouldn't be much of a struggle.

"Qinghe, then let's do as you say!" Xue Ye sighed, and despite his reluctance, he still issued the order.

"Your subject obeys!" Qian Renxue replied, her head slightly lowered, but a hint of barely perceptible joy flashed in her eyes.

"Now that this matter is settled, what do you think we should do next regarding our relationship with Lu Yuan?" Xue Ye asked.

Actually, he was also a bit troubled. This Lu Yuan was clearly at odds with the royal family and disliked them very much, but he was accompanied by two Titled Douluo, one of whom was a powerful figure like the Ultimate Douluo. Xue Ye was really worried that Lu Yuan would cause trouble in the Heaven Dou Imperial City, which would make him uncomfortable.

Prince Xue Xing's expression changed, but he remained silent. He wanted Lu Yuan dead the most, but Lu Yuan had such a powerful figure standing behind him, so he dared not go against Lu Yuan. He wanted to live a few more years.

But he couldn't bring himself to say anything about being on good terms with Lu Yuan.

"Your subject believes we can befriend Lu Yuan. Even if we cannot gain his friendship, we cannot allow him to harbor ill will towards us. After all, he has an Ultimate Douluo standing behind him, which is a terrifying power," Qian Renxue said.

"Hmm!" Xue Ye nodded. Although Lu Yuan had humiliated the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, a qualified politician could always endure what ordinary people could not. If they could bring Lu Yuan to their Heaven Dou Imperial Family, their Heaven Dou Empire would have one Ultimate Douluo- level supporter. Compared to that, what did a little face matter?

Therefore, Xue Ye not only did not blame Qian Renxue, but also thought highly of his suggestion.

But given Lu Yuan's terrible impression of the royal family, who should be sent to contact him?

Xue Ye raised his own question.

"Your Majesty, I think His Highness the Crown Prince is a very good candidate. He is capable in handling affairs and has excellent interpersonal skills. Moreover, Lu Yuan does not seem to dislike the Crown Prince. Therefore, I believe His Highness the Crown Prince is the best choice."

"Meng Shenji said."

"What the Education Committee member said is correct. His Highness the Crown Prince is indeed a good candidate. If His Majesty does not mind, I can also lend His Highness a hand!" Ning Fengzhi said.

He also had his own plans.

"Then I'll have to Sect Master Ning. Qinghe, this task is entrusted to you. You must bring Lu Yuan into our Heaven Dou camp. Even if you can't, you must at least make him have some goodwill towards Heaven Dou. Are you confident you can do it?" Xue Ye said.

"Your Majesty, I am confident that I will do my utmost to make this happen!" Qian Renxue said, her eyes filled with anticipation. This way, she would finally have a chance to meet that scoundrel face to face.

When she sees that jerk again, she'll definitely interrogate him thoroughly to find out just how many things he's been hiding from her.

"Very good!" Seeing Xue Qinghe's confident appearance, Xue Ye felt a sense of relief. Fortunately, among his sons, there was one who was quite outstanding. Qinghe was indeed very excellent, and the empire had a worthy successor!

He's much better than that Xue Beng brat, Avalanche!

Speaking of Xue Beng, Xue Ye seemed to remember something and said, "The Heaven Dou Royal Academy suffered such a crushing defeat this time, and you all bear inescapable responsibility. Qinghe, the task of reorganizing the Heaven Dou Royal Academy is entrusted to you. You don't need to worry about anything, just go ahead and do it boldly. I will give you my support."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey!" Qian Renxue was overjoyed. Sure enough, everything was going in the direction that brat had predicted.

"Xue Xing!"

"Your subject is here!" Upon hearing Xue Ye's words, Prince Xue Xing's body trembled, and he knew he was about to be in trouble.

"You used to be in charge of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but such problems have arisen, and the defeat has been so devastating. This cannot be blamed on Qinghe, because he has only been in charge for less than two months. You still have to bear most of the responsibility. Do you have anything to say?" Xue Ye asked.

"Your Majesty, I have nothing to say!" Prince Xue Xing lowered his head. The facts were right in front of him, and he could not refute them. Who knew that the Heaven Dou Royal Academy would be defeated so miserably, and Xue Qinghe had performed so brilliantly this time, so he was the only one who was unlucky.

"In that case, you should no longer interfere in the affairs of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. Withdraw your people!" Xue Ye said.

"Yes!" Prince Xue Xing nodded helplessly, his face dejected. He knew that from now on, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy would belong to Xue Qinghe alone.

"You stinky guy, you're really something!" Qian Renxue lowered her head, everything was proceeding according to Lu Yuan's script.

Looking at Xue Ye, Prince Xue Xing, and Ning Fengzhi, this scoundrel managed to manipulate so many intelligent people with a single scheme. It has to be said that his wisdom is truly admirable and even somewhat endearing!

Star Blue Hotel!

Both Long Xiaoyao and Mad Rhino Douluo were in Lu Yuan's room.

Lu Yuan glanced at Mad Rhino Douluo: "You seem to have something to say?"

Mad Rhino Douluo glanced at Long Xiaoyao, then at Lu Yuan, before cautiously asking, "Young Master Yuan, if I may be so bold as to ask, may I ask about the origins of this Senior Dragon Emperor?"

The sudden appearance of such a powerful figure beside Lu Yuan prompted Mad Rhino Douluo to voice his doubts out of a sense of duty, despite his fear.

"I will explain this matter to Xue'er myself, so you don't need to worry about it. Don't worry, I am also a member of the Spirit Hall!" Lu Yuan said calmly.

"Yes!" said Mad Rhino Douluo.

Since Lu Yuan had already said so, there was no need for him to say anything more. As long as it didn't harm the Spirit Hall, he was too lazy to care about Young Master Yuan's affairs, and of course, he couldn't care less anyway.

"Young Master Yuan, I shall take my leave now!" said Mad Rhino Douluo.

"Okay, then go ahead, and while you're at it, ask for a room for Old Long!" Lu Yuan's voice rang out.

"Yes!" Mad Rhino Douluo responded, then turned and left.

"What is your master worried about?" Long Xiaoyao asked, seemingly noticing that Lu Yuan was preoccupied.

"Sigh, Old Long, I'm having trouble figuring out how to explain today's events to Xue'er. I know Xue'er's temper very well. If I don't explain things clearly, things could get really serious. I need to come up with a perfect excuse!" Lu Yuan scratched his head in frustration.
