Ye Tianxing sighed again and said, "At that time, I was present with Crown Prince Xue Qinghe. The Spirit Hall, disguised as Prince Xue Xing and Xue Beng, were planning to ambush Sect Master Ning and Sword Douluo. However, before they could make a move, Senior Sword Douluo had already taken care of the two who were trying to ambush them."

"And then what happened? How did my father and Grandpa Jian die?" Ning Rongrong pressed.

" The Spirit Hall had been operating in the Heaven Dou Empire for many years. Due to Xue Ye's serious illness and bedridden condition, they could only use the Crown Prince Prince's forged edict to dispatch soldiers of the Royal Knights to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's headquarters, claiming that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had rebelled. Thus, a great war was about to break out."

"Those Royal Knights soldiers were not ordinary people at all. We later learned that they were all Spirit Master, numbering in the thousands."

" The Spirit Hall has paid a heavy price for today's actions."

As Ye Tianxing finished speaking, he took another big gulp of water.

"At that time, the Spirit Hall dispatched a total of six Titled Douluo. Sect Master Ning and Sword Douluo stayed behind to cover the retreat, while I took Xue Qinghe and fled to Xue Ye's palace. Only Xue Qinghe could be entrusted with this mission in a time of crisis, after all, he is Xue Ye's only living son and the only heir."

"In the end, I witnessed Xue Ye pass the throne to Xue Qinghe. Then, when the reinforcements from Heaven Dou City arrived, the situation was already settled."

After Ye Tianxing finished speaking, he remained silent for a while before saying, " Sect Master Ning and Sword Douluo died in battle. They endured the combined attack of six Titled Douluo."

Ning Rongrong's tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably. She cried and gradually became unable to speak.

"Then why? Xue Qinghe killed my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciples as soon as he took power!" Ning Rongrong asked angrily.

"Every emperor's ascension to the throne is accompanied by bloodshed. Due to the Spirit Hall's disguise as the Royal Knights, they suddenly claimed that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had rebelled, causing soldiers from the former Heaven Dou Empire who were unaware of the reason to join the battlefield."

"During the battle, the disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were actually fighting two against one. The Spirit Hall did this to mislead the soldiers of the Heaven Dou Empire, making them mistakenly believe that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had rebelled."

After Ye Tianxing finished speaking, Ning Rongrong added, "Then he can explain afterward! He's the emperor, and people should believe the emperor's words!"

Ye Tianxing stared at Ning Rongrong for a long time, which made the other woman shrink back a little.

" Ning Rongrong, you are really too naive. If Xue Qinghe doesn't do this, his throne will not be secure."

Just then, Dugu Bo suddenly said, "Even if we know that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is innocent, everyone else in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect must die. Otherwise, the soldiers who quelled the rebellion for the Heaven Dou Empire will mutini."

This is the cruel reality, and Ning Rongrong had nothing more to say.

Reality is always crueler than fantasy. The rebellion that the soldiers had worked so hard to suppress was pardoned as soon as the new emperor took the throne.

In the end, who is the rebel?

What were the soldiers who died fighting for in the "suppression of the rebellion"?

Therefore, upon ascending the throne, Xue Qinghe's first act was to slaughter the remaining disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, which served as a deterrent and stabilized morale. This was a necessary measure.

"What about my Strength Clan? The Strength Clan hasn't offended anyone, has it? Why were we wiped out!" Tai Long was filled with murderous intent, his mind set on revenge.

"In the letter I sent earlier, I already made it clear that the Strength Clan was Yu Xiaogang with the Spirit Hall. The Spirit Hall sent him to sea, where he cultivated his own Avengers Alliance. Then, he targeted the Strength Clan first, all for the sake of the humiliation he suffered back then."

"This has drawn the attention of my sect, leaving us no time to attend to what is happening in Heaven Dou City. Among the major powers near Heaven Dou City, apart from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and my Ye Clan, the other small sects and families are simply not worth mentioning."

Ye Tianxing said with a stern face, " Yu Xiaogang is a ruthless character. He knows that the Avengers Alliance he brought back from overseas are not enough to take revenge on me."

"Therefore, he planned to destroy the Strength Clan, using Strength Clan as bait, because he knew that the old Tai Tan patriarch had a good relationship with Yang Wudi and others. This is also why they did not stop you from going to ask for reinforcements."

Yang Wudi then asked, "But the problem is, after we arrived at the Strength Clan, all that was left were broken walls and ruins, the corpses of all the Strength Clan, and Yu Xiaogang's head."

"Let me state first, that dog's head was truly disgusting to me, so I've already cleaned it up." After saying that, Dugu Bo pointed to a pool of blood not far away and said helplessly.

Ye Tianxing didn't take it seriously; Yu Xiaogang's death was part of his plan.

" Yu Xiaogang's death was expected, Xue Qinghe successfully ascended the throne, and the Spirit Hall's plan completely failed. Keeping Yu Xiaogang around would only be a hot potato, after all, no one knows what kind of person he is."

" The Spirit Hall's plan has failed completely, and nothing major is expected to happen in the short term."

After Ye Tianxing finished recounting everything, he solved the mystery in everyone's hearts.

Ning Rongrong and the remaining disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were left homeless. The entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was wiped out, and the few remaining members had nowhere to go but to join the Ye Clan.

Tai Long was in the same boat. His Strength Clan was wiped out, and the Spirit Hall was a behemoth. He began to train hard every day, waiting for the day when he could personally seek revenge against the Spirit Hall.

Ye Tianxing sat in the sect leader's chair of the Ye Clan and began to ponder the path ahead.

" The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has been completely eradicated, and the Ye Clan is now the number one sect in the Heaven Dou Empire. However, there is still the Clear Sky Sect. Although they have gone into seclusion, Tang San is still alive. In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the Clear Sky Sect must also be arranged in advance."

"Metropolitan."

Just then, Dugu Bo walked over.

" Senior Dugu, is there something you need?"

After the two were seated, Dugu Bo took out a letter from his pocket, handed it to Ye Tianxing, and said, "This is a letter from the Star Luo Empire. The recipient is you. The sender is anonymous. This letter arrived half a year ago."

Ye Tianxing nodded and opened the letter after seeing Dugu Bo off.

" Dai Weisi?"

"The struggle for the throne in the Star Luo Empire is so fierce. The letter that should have been released half a year ago was left unwritten when I was cultivating at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Judging from the current situation, the Star Luo Empire must also make arrangements as soon as possible."

Time was of the essence, so Ye Tianxing immediately went to the palace.

Because of the brutal fighting last night, the bloodstains on the street have been cleaned up, but a faint smell of blood still lingers in the air, and no matter how hard you blow, it won't dissipate.

"Brother, it seems like things have changed in Heaven Dou City." Tang Yuehua stood at the highest point of the Moonlight Pavilion, looking worried.
