"Grandpa."
Tang Xiao hui reports:
"Except for the entire fleet, September Autumn, which was protected by my father and Elder Sword, there was no loss. All the supplies on the other ships have been lost."
"If we can no longer find supplies, not only those with the surname Soul Master will not be able to sustain it, but even our own disciples Clear Sky Sect will no longer be able to persist."
Tang Chen Listening to Tang Xiao's report, his face, which was already so dark that it was almost dripping with water, became even more gloomy.
He was silent for a while, and then slowly said, "You continue to set off with the fleet. I will leave first and check out Deep Sea ahead to see if there are any islands that can be supplied."
"As for food and water, gather those water-type Soul Master and food-type Soul Master, and let them give priority to our Clear Sky Sect disciples."
"As for those whose surname is Soul Master, don't care too much about them, as long as they are still alive."
"Yes!" Tang Xiao responded immediately and turned around to make arrangements.
Tang Chen stood on the bow of the ship, his eyes falling on the increasingly deeper sea level in the distance, and he whispered to himself, "I hope I can find an island where I can supply supplies, but if that doesn't work, I'll have to grab it..."
The time comes half a month later.
During this period, Tang Chen mobilized all the Storage Soul Tool in the entire fleet, and then secretly sneaked into Sea God Island and secretly purchased a batch of food and fresh water, which finally solved the urgent need.
Since Bo Saixi was still having sex with Zhao Linchuan, she did not notice this change.
By the time she knew the situation, Tang Chen's fleet had already fled.
Now that the person has gone far, Bo Saixi has no intention of chasing her. After all, there are more important things waiting for her.
Now, Zhao Linchuan is back to the Spirit Hall.
The furnishings in the palace are as usual.
Zhao Linchuan just came to the desk and sat down, leaning into the back of the chair, resting his fingers casually on the armrest, and glanced at the neatly stacked files.
He hasn't sat in this position for a long time...
Ling Yuan happened to come over with a report at this time. She glanced at the figure Pope on the throne and almost thought she had seen it wrong.
She blinked, and after confirming that the face was indeed Zhao Linchuan, she immediately said angrily:
"Tsk tsk... What a rare visitor."
"Our His Holiness the Pope... has actually taken office?"
"Look what you said." Zhao Linchuan leaned back in the chair, crossed his hands on his abdomen, and replied with a smile, "I am also the apparent controller of the Spirit Hall, shouldn't I be responsible for managing government affairs myself?"
"Then you Pope are really pragmatic." Ling Yuan chuckled, and said in a still sinister tone, "Since the eldest sister and Dong'er got pregnant, I haven't seen you for almost half a year."
"If that girl A-Yan hadn't come back often to tell me about your situation, I would have thought you, Mr. Pope, were missing."
"Look, are you naughty again?" Zhao Linchuan waved to Ling Yuan, motioning for her to come forward.
Ling Yuan rolled his eyes at Zhao Linchuan when he saw this, but still walked obediently behind the desk, bent his legs, and sat sideways on Zhao Linchuan's lap.
Her long hair swayed on her shoulders, and a few strands fell down, falling on Zhao Linchuan's shoulders.
Zhao Linchuan raised his hand and smoothed Ling Yuan's scattered hair, tucked them behind her ears, then straightened his expression and said:
"I, Pope, will be in charge today. If you have anything to do, just ask and I will make the decision."
"Haha." Ling Yuan heard this and spread out the report in his hand flatly and placed it on the desk.
Her fingers clicked on the page, landing on the rows of numbers and markings, and her voice became serious:
"At present, the remaining Soul Master on the Douluo Continent is only about 40% of the previous one."
"Among them, more than 70% of the 40% are close to our Spirit Hall."
"And among the remaining 30%, most of them are people from some sects and aristocratic families. They were not favored by Tang Chen due to their strength, so they stayed with the Douluo Continent."
"Now, this group of people are aggressively acquiring those ownerless lands, and are clamoring to rearrange Seven Great Sects, while asking us Spirit Hall to give them loans and let them Rebuild Homeland Plan."
After saying that, Ling Yuan turned sideways and looked at Zhao Linchuan, her eyes fell on his face, waiting for his words.
"Alas, these people..." Zhao Linchuan sighed softly, reached out and picked up the report and glanced at it.
His eyes quickly passed over the places marked with numbers and notes, and there was a hint of coldness in his calm tone:
"Do they think we are too kind now and won't do anything to them. So they dare to make these demands unscrupulously?"
"They are confident."
Ling Yuan continued what Zhao Linchuan said:
"These people are now convinced that we, Spirit Hall, are about to unify the mainland. They feel that we will not do anything drastic at this time. Instead, we will win over them at all costs in order to win people's hearts."
"That's why they dare to be so arrogant."
"Sure enough, a dog can't change its habit of eating shit." Zhao Linchuan shook his head, put down the report in his hand, and his tone became a little colder, "These worms are still a scourge if they are left alive. If that's the case, let's kill them all."
"No one will be left behind who makes trouble. At the same time, we will revise our Spirit Hall external Soul Master policy."
He tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said slowly:
"We retain the policy of awakening Martial Soul for the masses for free, but they must be people under our rule and must have household registration information distributed by the Spirit Hall."
"At the same time, we launched the 'Rebuild Homeland Plan' plan, and used this as an excuse to publicize the financial shortage, stop unconditionally providing Gold Soul Coin subsidies to Soul Master, and only continue to provide Gold Soul Coin subsidies to Soul Master who join Spirit Hall."
"We need to build more houses and distribute them to our people for free."
"We don't ask for anything else. As long as they recognize themselves as our people and sign the document, we will give it to them directly."
"In addition, the current education and medical systems have been broken down. We need to reconstruct the system, re-establish the education and medical systems, and explain this history to them."
"We don't need to deliberately guide, we just need to tell history truthfully, and the hearts of educated people will naturally turn to us."
"In this way, in three to five years at most, the world will be able to return to its heart."
"By then, even if you don't want to unify the continent, those people will probably force us to ascend the throne and proclaim ourselves emperor."
"This method is wonderful." After listening to Zhao Linchuan's words, Ling Yuan nodded vigorously, "I heard from the eldest sister that common people can produce something called the power of faith..."
