Qian Daoliu's Threat
Xu Mingxi sat at the bow of the Swordfish, leaning against the railing behind him, looking at the boundless ocean in front of him. He took out the black Crystal Ball given to him by the Sun Moon Dual Gods and examined it carefully.
He had tried Crystal Ball, but to no avail. Perhaps he should prepare for the worst.
If one cannot pass the test of the Sun Moon Dual Gods, one will not be able to inherit their divine positions. Perhaps in the end, one will still have to return to faith and become a god. The two can be carried out simultaneously and do not conflict.
Xu Mingxi left Douluo Continent after Tang San was born, and now, nearly nine years later, she is finally embarking on her journey home.
The Swordfish is faster than the Shark Tooth, and if all goes well, they will return to the Douluo Continent in about a year. There is still time.
Xu Mingxi's plan was as described, but at this moment, a completely unexpected change occurred on the Douluo Continent.
Inside the Star Crown Sect, the Sect Master tossed the intelligence report in his hand onto the table, leaned back in his chair, and closed his eyes.
"I'm too old to keep up with the ideas of young people. What's going on? When is Mingxi coming back? I can hardly carry this burden anymore."
It's no wonder the Sect Master complained; the changes that have taken place on the Douluo Continent in recent years have left even a 97-year-old Super Douluo somewhat overwhelmed.
Since the Spirit Hall destroyed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, all the major sects have been living in fear. Powerful sects like the Star Crown Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can barely protect themselves, while sects without Titled Douluo have begun to align themselves with the Spirit Hall in order to preserve their own lineage.
After such a long period of time, the ambitions of the Spirit Hall have become obvious to the major powers, but they have not yet revealed themselves.
Acting Pope Bibi Dong held a re-election of the Seven Great Sects in Spirit City. The Clear Sky Sect, Star Crown Sect, and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were all absent and were stripped of their titles Upper Three Sects.
The newly Upper Three Sects, ranked first, are the Elephant Hu Yanzhen Elephant Armor Sect, who broke through to the Titled Douluo with the help of the Spirit Hall, is located. He is also the only Titled Douluo among the new Upper Three Sects.
The other two of the Upper Three Sects are the Saint Dragon Sect Wind Sword Sect, which emerged victorious by defeating other sects.
The Lower Four Sects were also four large sects with Soul Douluo who had submitted to the Spirit Hall: the Fire Leopard Sect, the Rock Antelope Sect, the Sparrow Peak Sect, and the White Tiger Sect.
The alternation of the seven old and new sects also meant changes in the continent's structure. Although this had little impact on the semi-reclusive sect, Star Crown Sect, Ning Fengzhi's letters became more and more frequent.
The actions of the Spirit Hall also caused changes in the Two Great Empires. Xue Ye of the Heaven Dou Empire, whose health was not good to begin with, has been getting worse and worse recently, and his physical condition is even deteriorating.
The princes of Heaven Dou died for various reasons, leaving only Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and Fourth Prince Xue Beng. In comparison, the calls for Xue Qinghe to ascend the throne grew louder among the people.
The duchies and kingdoms under the Heaven Dou Empire were also stirring, but Xue Ye's prestige remained, and Grand Marshal Ge Long guarded the four directions, so no one dared to openly break away.
The Star Luo Empire is also making preparations in secret. Due to pressure from the Spirit Hall, they are currently maintaining a delicate balance with the Heaven Dou and accumulating strength.
Inside the palace, Star Luo Emperor sat on his throne, reading the intelligence reports from his spies. The Empress gracefully approached, carrying a bowl of stew, and placed it on the table in front of him.
"Your Majesty, please have something to eat first. The Star Luo Empire still needs you."
"How can I possibly eat? The situation on the continent is chaotic, and the ambitions of the Spirit Hall are blatantly obvious. I really don't know what to do."
"Your Majesty need not worry too much. My Star Luo Empire is strong and powerful. The Spirit Hall would not dare to risk being attacked by the whole world. Moreover, the matter you instructed us to do earlier is progressing well."
Attacking the Star Luo Empire is different from attacking the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. If the Spirit Hall were to take action against the Two Great Empires, all forces that do not want to be governed by it would unite to resist.
Star Luo Emperor Dai Feng looked at his wife in surprise. He hadn't expected that the matter would actually make progress. It seemed that she was also under considerable pressure.
"Your Empress, I heard that our relative's wife is from the Star Crown Sect."
"Yes, his wife's Martial Soul is Star Crown, and she has already become Soul Saint. Presumably, she once held a high position in the Star Crown Sect."
"Alright, maintain good relations with them. The Star Crown Sect of our Star Luo Empire is no simple matter."
These changes don't actually affect the Star Crown Sect for the time being. What troubles the Sect Master the most is that he received a letter from the Elder Hall of Spirit City, signed by Qian Daoliu, the true head of the Spirit Hall.
He has now recalled almost all of the Star Crown Sect disciples, Dugu Bo has even brought his family to reside permanently in the Star Crown Sect. The area around Starfall Mountain is filled with poison arrays, making it extremely difficult for the Spirit Hall to invade.
However, Qian Daoliu is different. He is known as the strongest Level 99 Limit Douluo in the sky. The Sect Master grew up listening to his legends. In his heart, he and the Star Crown Sect absolutely cannot offend him.
"Forget it, let those Elders who have nothing to do all day worry about it. If this matter is not handled properly, it will be troublesome."
The person the Sect Master feared was currently sitting in the Elder Hall drinking tea, and sitting opposite him was none other than the Golden Crocodile Douluo, who had lost an arm.
Since the Spirit Hall was handed over to Bibi Dong, they have completely retreated to the sidelines, spending their days either drinking tea and having fun or worshipping in front of the Angel Statue, living a very happy life.
Golden Crocodile Douluo put down his teacup and looked at Qian Daoliu. If he didn't have something to do, he wouldn't want to sit here and drink tea with him.
"Grand Elder, why did you personally write the letter and send it to the Star Crown Sect? Although they have Titled Douluo, my Spirit Hall has plenty of Title Douluo."
"They are not simple. Although the Star Crown Sect has never produced Limit Douluo in its history, it has produced Super Douluo of Level 98."
If I'm not mistaken, the current Sect Master has already reached Level 97. Apart from you and me, even Azure Luan and Xiong Shi wouldn't dare say they could definitely defeat him.
Moreover, they are not like the Clear Sky Sect, which rose to prominence because of Tang Chen. They have been stably passed down for thousands of years, and their Titled Douluo are definitely not limited to just Star Crown Douluo.
Moreover, Dugu Bo has now also pledged allegiance to them. If they join the camp of the Two Great Empires, the losses to us will be enormous.
Qian Daoliu picked up his teacup and took a sip. In the letter he sent to the Sect Master, there were almost no polite words. The entire letter contained only one request, or rather, one threat.
Do not interfere in matters concerning the mainland, or I will personally come to your door.
