Spirit City.
Qian Daoliu stood in front of Angel God Statue with his back to everyone, his golden robe hanging down like a waterfall, and a faint sacred halo lingering around him.
He turned around slowly and said in a calm tone, "Xue Qinghe killed seven old nobles in the Heaven Dou Empire, took back the fiefs of the twelve nobles, and expanded Royal Knights to 30,000 Dai Weisi was even more ruthless in the Star Luo Empire. He directly bloodbathed three vassal kings who had strong military support and confiscated the homes of all nobles with more than 500 private soldiers in the Star Luo Empire."
Golden Crocodile Douluo frowned. "Brother, these two juniors are moving too fast. If this momentum continues, within five years, the two empires will be able to completely take back local power. By then, the number of troops in their hands will have tripled, posing a considerable threat to us Spirit Hall."
"Threat?"
Bibi Dong chuckled lightly, with no trace of confusion in his eyes. "What can a group of royal families who don't even have a few Titled Douluo do, even if they hold a hundred thousand troops in their hands?"
"If I wanted to, I could put their heads on their own house tonight."
Qian Daoliu nodded slightly, with no emotion in his golden eyes. "Under Limit Douluo, we are all ants. No matter how powerful the two empires are, they can't stop the beheading of the three Limit Douluo. The more ferocious they make, the more power they gather, and when we take them down, the more we will get."
"That's right."
Bibi Dong picked up the tea cup and took a sip. "It is a waste of time to argue with them now. Xue Qinghe and Dai Weisi are willing to help us clean up those intertwined nobles, which saves us a lot of effort, why not?"
"When the time comes, it will be a matter of minutes to find someone to replace them."
To put it simply, win at the lowest cost.
It's nothing more than personnel replacement, ending everything with a silent battle.
For example, the original Xue Qinghe was replaced by Qian Renxue.
Qian Daoliu nodded. "If necessary, you can add some fuel to their fire."
Everyone responded in unison, "Understood."
Yes, they can also start with Otherworldly Visitors.
By counterfeiting Otherworldly Visitors, the two empire areas were attacked, making the water even more muddy.
Different from the turmoil in the outside world, Magic Academy of Suotuo City is still a peaceful scene.
No one mentioned the "Otherworldly Visitors" turmoil outside, and no one was worried that a mob would storm the college.
Because the first wave of "Otherworldly Visitors"'s attack was launched by Locke himself, even if Chu Xiu was launched on the Tianbang List, it would not have any impact on him.
In addition, there were many people who secretly plotted against Locke during this period, but in the end they all disappeared and no one dared to take any chances with him.
What's more, Dean Locke has never done anything bad except that he looks younger and can use some strange magic. He also often uses various magical magic props to help the people of Suotuo City.
In the hearts of Suotuo City people, Dean Locke is not a "devil from another world" at all, but an angel who brings good luck.
Heaven Dou Empire The celebration banquet in the imperial palace had just ended. Xue Qinghe stood on the terrace at the highest point of the imperial city, looking at the brightly lit Heaven Dou City under his feet.
In one month, just one month, in the name of "clearing out Otherworldly Visitors", he beheaded seven old nobles, took back twelve hereditary fiefs, and expanded the size of Royal Knights from 8,000 to 30,000. Those old people who once dared to point fingers at the royal family now knelt in front of him without even daring to raise their heads.
He thought that he had grasped the lifeblood of the Heaven Dou Empire, and thought that this chaos directed by him would eventually end with the complete concentration of imperial power.
But he didn't know that a storm more terrifying than any army or any Titled Douluo had quietly taken root at the bottom of the empire.
The first one to show any abnormal movement was Bluestone Town on the southwest border of the Heaven Dou Empire.
This border town, which relies on mining for a living, has always been a barbaric place in the eyes of the nobles. The townspeople have been working in the dark mines for generations, working eighteen hours a day, and the money they earn is not enough to buy half a bag of coarse grains.
The mine owner is Earl from Heaven Dou City. If a miner is killed, he only needs to pay three silver coins.
That evening, a ragged wandering storyteller sat in front of the town. He did not tell the old stories about talents and beauties and heroes saving beauties. Instead, he told a story about "another world" in a hoarse voice.
"It was a beautiful world. There was no emperor or nobility. The people who were in charge of the country were elected by the people themselves. If anyone dared to bully the people, the people would get him out with a vote."
"Children there, whether from poor or rich families, don't have to spend a single coin to go to school; when they get sick, they don't have to pay money to go to the hospital. All the money is paid by the state."
"As long as you are an adult, the state will give you a house for free, so you don't have to work as a landlord for the rest of your life. When you are old and can no longer work, the state will also give you pension money so that you can live the rest of your life in peace."
"There, no one is born superior to others, and no one is born to be stepped on. Nobles who kill common people must pay with their lives, and officials who steal people's money must be beheaded."
He was gradually surrounded by people. At first it was just a few idle children, then farmers carrying hoes, and finally even miners who had just finished get off work at the mine came over.
Everyone held their breath, their eyes widened, and their faces were filled with disbelief.
"Storyteller, you're not lying, are you? How could there be such a good place?" A young miner with a face covered in soot couldn't help but speak, with a tremor in his voice.
"There is no emperor, no nobility, and the people have the final say in the country. How is it possible?"
"That's right, you don't have to pay for medical treatment and schooling, and you get a house for free? How can there be such a good thing in the world?"
The storyteller smiled and took out a crumpled manuscript from his arms, which was filled with dense content in crooked words. "Why did I lie to you? These are all said by people from other worlds. This is how their world is."
"Otherworldly Visitors?" There was a commotion in the crowd, and some people subconsciously took a step back, but more people moved forward, their eyes shining with desire.
"What about Otherworldly Visitors? Even if they make a huge fuss, it's none of our business."
An old farmer with gray hair spoke tremblingly. His son's leg was broken by the mine owner last month. The mine owner only paid five silver coins in compensation, which was not even enough to buy medicine.
"It would be great if we could live in such a world."
"Yeah, it's better than now! We work so hard every day that in the end we can't even have a full meal. Those nobles don't do anything, but eat delicacies from all over the world, and even beat our children to death!"
