Yuwen Huai'an Became the Public Enemy of Women?

On the Douluo Continent, the viewers began roaring with laughter.

"Ha ha ha! Are these women sick in the head? They abandoned such an outstanding husband as Yuwen Huai'an just to mess around with black men."

"Good thing my wife is ugly. No one would want her."

"Is that something worth bragging about?"

"Old Xu, I just saw a group of black slaves coming out of your house. Hurry home and see whether they stole anything."

Old Xu was the man who had claimed his wife was ugly.

"What? Bullshit! My wife is at home. How could black men possibly get inside?"

The man who had brought the news panted heavily, his expression anxious as he explained, "Old Xu, why would I lie to you? We're neighbors. If those black men hadn't been so big and strong, I'd have stopped them for you long ago. I was just afraid they'd beat me up."

The man called Old Xu instantly darkened. He became imposing and aggressive, striding hurriedly toward his home.

The people around him burst into laughter again.

"Ha ha ha! Even ugly ones don't get spared!"

Elsewhere, inside Old Xu's home, a woman covered in fat, her face full of acne scars, lay naked on the bed.

Her pockmarked face was flushed, as though she had just been thoroughly satisfied.

"Those royal women really know how to enjoy themselves. Those black dogs were quite capable. Compared to that useless Xu, what just happened was simply heavenly bliss."

The obese woman muttered to herself.

"You shameless bitch!" Old Xu, who had rushed back and happened to hear her words, grabbed a wooden stick from the doorway and swung it at the fat woman.

Yuwen Huai'an became the target of some women's abuse.

"You damned thing, what would it hurt to endure it? You worthless wretch."

"A disgusting man like him is obviously useless."

"We women should enjoy equal rights. Otherwise, don't blame us for establishing a Republic Empire for women only and slaughtering all you stinking men."

The curses rose and fell. It could not be denied that extreme feminism was contagious. There were certainly many outstanding women on the continent who were independent and self-reliant, but extreme women definitely outnumbered normal women by far.

Compared with the Heaven Dou Empire, there was not much turmoil in the Star Luo Empire.

That was because the Star Luo Empire revered martial strength and had never loosened its restraints on women. The women there had long grown accustomed to being men's possessions.

The cruel laws and systems there had made these women obedient at their very core.

Dai Lie sat high upon the throne, and contemptuous words spilled from his mouth.

"A group of women can actually influence the court officials? Such a Heaven Dou Empire is no longer worthy of being my enemy. It seems the day I unite the continent is close at hand."

"Your Majesty, it seems the men of the Heaven Dou Empire are all spineless fools. They cannot even keep their own women under control. I believe Your Majesty will certainly seize the Heaven Dou Empire with ease." The voluptuous woman behind him draped herself over Dai Lie's shoulder and spoke with fragrant breath.

"Ha ha ha! The Empress certainly knows how to talk!"

Within the Star Dou Great Forest, a man dressed in a yellow robe sat cross-legged on the ground.

His body was ravaged by the violent power within him. His skin had cracked, and blood stained his yellow robe red.

A glimmer of golden light at his heart wrapped around his life force.

At last, a purple soul ring appeared around him. He had successfully absorbed his first soul ring.

The yellow-robed man struggled to his feet and looked up at the sky. "I said it before: I, Zhang Jiao, am inferior to no one!"

Faith Red Lotus condensed into a massive phantom behind Zhang Jiao, and the injuries on his body rapidly healed.

During this time, Zhang Jiao had continuously contemplated the power of faith in his spare time, following in Bai Fan's footsteps.

Their situation had become even more dire. The Heaven Dou Empire had begun a full-scale search for rebels like them.

Zhang Jiao skillfully employed hit-and-run tactics, evading the Heaven Dou Empire's pursuit time and time again.

A young man around twenty ran up to Zhang Jiao and said breathlessly, "Brother Zhang, spies from the Star Luo Empire contacted us. They said they could provide us with equipment. Should we agree?"

Zhang Jiao stroked his chin in thought and muttered, "The Star Luo Empire wants us to destroy each other so they can reap the rewards. What a fine scheme."

"Brother Zhang, then we'll reject them!"

The young man had just turned to leave when Zhang Jiao stopped him. "Wait. Who told you to reject them? Since the Star Luo Empire wants to watch tigers fight from the mountain, then we'll let them watch."

Zhang Jiao's eyes gleamed as he plotted against the Star Luo Empire.

Inside the Heavenly Screen.

It was now the twelfth lunar month, and heavy snow drifted down from the sky.

The people of the Sylvis Kingdom missed their children terribly. Under the guidance of Bai Fan's forces, they now understood that they had been deceived and regretted handing their children over to Yuwen Huai'an.

Bai Fan stood atop the city gate, a trace of melancholy in his eyes.

"Sister Dong, are you doing well? Wait for me. I'll soon have the strength to contend with Spirit Hall."

The bitter cold of winter soon passed.

After enduring a harsh winter, the Republic Empire's image in the hearts of the people grew even greater.

In the past, many elderly people and children would always die after winter. But during this harsh winter, with the Republic Empire's care, not a single person lost their life to the freezing wind.

Spring returned, and nature displayed a vibrant scene full of life.

As all things revived, countless streams of green energy poured into Bai Fan's body.

His soul power, originally at level 74, rapidly surged to level 76.

The reason his soul power could improve so quickly was entirely due to the lotus at his heart.

The power of faith continuously flowed into the lotus at his heart, eventually transforming into pure soul power that nourished his body.

"Our next stop: the Barak Kingdom!"

At Bai Fan's command, the vast army advanced toward the Barak Kingdom.

The Barak Kingdom was the foremost of the four great kingdoms. Unlike the first two capitals they had conquered, its soldiers were strong and its people lived prosperous, vigorous lives.

According to the original story, there were fewer impoverished people in the city. It was a developed city, where even ordinary people without soul power could at least eke out a living.

But none of that mattered to Bai Fan. His goal now was to completely overthrow the Heaven Dou Empire and establish his own Republic Empire.

Within the Heaven Dou Empire, the things Yuwen Huai'an had left behind were presented to Emperor Xue Ye.

What Yuwen Huai'an had left was a letter, one that made Emperor Xue Ye's blood boil with fury.

Yuwen Huai'an's wife had given this letter to Emperor Xue Ye. The envelope bore the words, "For the Emperor's Personal Reading."

The letter had been lying beneath Yuwen Huai'an's pillow, only discovered by his wife today.

Emperor Xue Ye opened the letter. The moment he finished reading the first sentence, he slapped Yuwen Huai'an's wife across the face.

"Your Majesty, by the time you read this letter, I will already have given the Sylvis Kingdom to the rebels. I will have left the Heaven Dou Empire for a place you will never find."
