Frankness

"Speaking of which, if I want to settle down here, what procedures do I need to go through?" Dugu Bo changed the subject and brought up the matter of settling down.

"What? Old Monster, you don't want the manor in Heaven Dou City and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well anymore?" Zhou Qing asked with a smile.

"The manor? My granddaughter is siding with that kid from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, what can I do? The manor will definitely have to be given to her in the future."

Dugu Bo wanted to stroke his beard, but found that it had all fallen out. However, he could not change this habit in a short time. "As for the treasure land of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well... it is guarded by those Immortal Herbs, so I don't need to worry. Moreover, I can take this time to learn more about pharmacology, as well as the so-called Feng Shui Qi Field, human Meridians, acupoints, etc., so that it will be convenient for me to cultivate there in the future."

Helpless, Zhou Qing could only ask Old Jack to select a piece of land near the Worker-Peasant Council site to build a small courtyard for Dugu Bo.

Of course, Dugu Bo to pay his own wages.

After the matter was settled, Dugu Bo asked again, "So, what exactly do you want to do?"

Wealth, riches, money, and beauty...

To gain a status and position that surpasses others?

It doesn't seem like it.

Otherwise, there was no need to act so recklessly in the Preliminary Competition, and even more so, to show no respect for Xue Ye at the end...

Rebel?

It doesn't really look like it.

Zhou Qing is meticulous and his talent has already begun to show. His strength is also remarkable. If he wants to become king and even replace Heaven Dou, obtaining Xue Ye's reward is the most convenient choice. Noble forces from various kingdoms and duchies, including sects and families of all sizes, will invest in him as long as they have something to ask of him. It is not impossible for him to change the name of Heaven Dou in the future.

Judging from the current situation, Zhou Qing and his partners have chosen the most difficult and rather absurd path: starting from scratch.

Moreover, the main group following them is not Commoner Soul Master, but ordinary civilians.

But--

What's even more absurd is that, right now, the towns and villages along the road leading from Holy Soul Village Vast Sea City are gradually developing.

Furthermore, rather than admiring Zhou Qing and others for being champions of the Continental Elite Tournament, the people in this area do not worship Zhou Qing's strength, but rather admire his wisdom.

The people in this area still hold outsiders in awe of Soul Master, but when it comes to Soul Master who are born and raised here, like Zhou Qing, even if he has reached the Soul King realm, the villagers can still chat with him about everyday matters in their spare time... This is definitely not the kind of person who wants to become a king or emperor.

So, you want to keep breaking through in terms of realm?

Perhaps that's the idea, after all, Zhou Qing and his partners are researching topics such as Martial Soul growth and Soul Power cultivation.

However, Dugu Bo knew very well that Zhou Qing would never regard cultivation as the main goal. Cultivation and power were merely an indispensable process and a result to achieve what they wanted to accomplish, rather than the fundamental purpose.

Moreover, aiming for "constantly breaking through realms" is too empty. One day, one will become mentally exhausted. Otherwise, one will become a true monster with a heart of stone and no longer be a "human".

Based on his observations of Holy Soul Village over this period, Dugu Bo was certain that Zhou Qing was ambitious, and extremely so, especially given his class theory, which directly addressed the essence of how the empire operated...

He actually knew what Zhou Qing was up to.

Problem discovered...

The problem naturally needs to be solved.

"What do I want to do?" Looking at the young men of Holy Soul Village who had already begun laying the foundation for Dugu Bo, Zhou Qing smiled slightly. "Whoever lives on this beautiful land is its master. What I want to do is simply return the land to its rightful owner, nothing more."

Dugu Bo was taken aback. After staring at Zhou Qing for a long while, he said Youyou, "Do you want to make enemies of the whole world?"

"What do you mean, the whole world? At most, it's just being an enemy of the current beneficiaries on the mainland." Zhou Qing chuckled. "There are quite a few people willing to stand on my side."

"Heh, do you know how many of the Commoner Soul Master who have come to Nuoding City are hiding their true identities?" Dugu Bo sneered.

"I know, but so what? I'm not worried about my thoughts and theories spreading. It would be better if they passed my thoughts back to me. Once the forces behind them learn about my ideas, some of them will think about them. Even if it's just a few, that's good."

This is not a fabrication.

Judging from Yu Xiaogang's example, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the Upper Three Sects, has a great deal of freedom for its disciples.

It is estimated that if these undercover agents bring back his educational model and ideology, and one person knows about it, then the rest will likely know as well.

Why is it that all the sects in the Douluo Continent are established based on the inheritance of Martial Soul?

They are naturally close by blood.

These kinds of sects also have the characteristic of chivalry and justice. When their disciples travel across the continent, they will eliminate some of the local ruffians and hooligans they encounter along the way.

Young people, in particular, are the most impulsive. Once they realize that they are essentially in a class that oppresses the common people, they are very likely to go against the elders and clan elders in the sect in a moment of impulsiveness.

It is precisely because of the Martial Soul that the blood ties between direct disciples are extremely close, and the elders in the sect would not make an example of other disciples.

Um--

The Spirit Hall is acceptable.

However, currently only the Spirit Hall on the entire continent has zero requirements regarding the bloodline of Soul Master. As long as a Soul Master is not Fallen Ones, the attitude is the same: all comers are welcome.

"You're just stirring up trouble!" Dugu Bo's lips twitched.

"The world is already chaotic enough. I just want to offer my blessing so that the mainland can develop peacefully!" Zhou Qing shrugged and extended an invitation to Dugu Bo, "Want to come and help?"

"I knew it, you can't just take the benefits for free."

Dugu Bo remained silent.

But saying this also shows his attitude:

Agreed.

After all, Zhou Qing and the others not only solved his problem, but also gave him the possibility of advancing to the peerless realm and breaking through to Level 100. This kindness can probably only be repaid by standing on their side and being an enemy of the whole world.

But--

"Xue Xing's life must be spared."

Dugu Bo stated his conditions. "I don't have much of a relationship with him, but he saved my life. The only thing I can be proud of in my life, besides poison, is my commitment to keeping my promises."

This also means that Dugu Bo believes Zhou Qing can overthrow Heaven Dou.

After all--

He knew a thing or two about the power struggles within the Heaven Dou Royal Family... He didn't know much about politics, but that didn't mean he couldn't see that the Heaven Dou Empire was already in decline.

Although Xue Qinghe was a good man, his personality meant that after ascending to the throne, he would probably only be a dedicated emperor, incapable of expanding the territory.

The Star Luo Empire has already produced a "Hell White Tiger," which is bound to be eyeing the Heaven Dou... When chaos erupts on the continent, it wouldn't be unreasonable for Zhou Qing and his group to seize the opportunity to rise up.

"Don't worry, he has to live..."

Reason?

Someone is needed in the future to describe to the world the founding history and the history of the fall of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Xue Xing, this prince who strikes hard against the weak but is subservient to the strong, and who has a debt of gratitude to Dugu Bo, is bound to survive to the end. Isn't he the most suitable candidate?
