Chapter 113

~7 min read 1,314 words

Unifying the whole continent, with Li Fei's current strength, it is actually possible to do so.

But he did not choose to do so.

At least not in the short term.

Unifying the continent is simple, but managing a great empire is extremely difficult.

These are all insights he gained from studying history in his previous life.

No dynasty has ever been able to escape the three-hundred-year cycle of fate.

He also cannot remain on the Dou Luo Continent forever.

So the plan to unify the whole continent is put aside for now.

He intends to continue building a large batch of the Li family's true foundations before making further plans.

Moreover, splitting the entire continent into many small states.

Countless states stand side by side, countless states contend for supremacy.

In that case, the whole world would become extraordinarily exciting.

Moreover, we must not allow them to have any thought of unification.

From the perspective of thought and the microscopic, we directly erase their idea of unification, wanting only to seize land one by one as kings, not to become emperor.

To achieve this, it's actually simple: wait until someone among them wants to become emperor, then eliminate them.

Make everyone psychologically feel that becoming emperor will bring death, a curse bestowed upon them by heaven.

Over time, no one will have the thought of unification again.

When the future opportunity arrives and the Li family fully controls every aspect of the continent, they can quickly achieve the unification of the whole continent, creating an unparalleled super empire! Achieving the title of the first Li First Emperor, and leaving fame for posterity!

Afterward, the Li family can then completely retreat behind the scenes, no longer in the open.

Only then can it exist for a longer time.

However, the biggest problem is that this will definitely touch the interests of the Spirit Hall.

After all, the Spirit Hall wants to unify the continent.

Their first target is the Heavenly Battle Empire, to turn it into a Martial Soul Empire, then take the Star Net Empire, completing the great unification of the continent.

Therefore, Li Fei definitely cannot do that.

"Looks like I need to get more of my own people into the Spirit Hall."

Li Fei's eyes shifted; these people will, at the critical moment, cause the Spirit Hall to fall apart.

And Li Fei will be behind the scenes, reaping the benefits of the fisherman's gain.

You spokespeople do the dangerous work; the benefits naturally go to me, the head of the Li family.

Heavenly Battle Hall.

The general, burdened with worries, walked in from outside.

Upon seeing the Snow Night Emperor, he paid respects: "Your subject, I greet Your Majesty!"

"Rise." The Snow Night Emperor's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise: "Beloved minister, how did the matter of that villain in Heavenly Water City go?"

From the general's attire and bloodstains, it is clear they experienced a fierce battle in Heavenly Water City; otherwise, it would be impossible for a high-ranking Soul Douluo to end up in such a sorry state.

The general lowered his head, showing shame, and began to speak the words Li Fei had taught him.

On the way here, the rest of the army had unified their statements.

"What!? The losses are actually so heavy!!"

"This matter actually also involves a mysterious Titled Douluo!!"

Upon hearing this, the Snow Night Emperor's pupils contracted; he jumped up from his seat in shock, cold sweat pouring down.

Who would have thought that the killing of the little Heavenly Water City prince would involve a Titled Douluo.

"Northern End King, you bastard, what damned thing have you provoked for me?!"

If he had known the enemy had a Titled Douluo, or that the Northern End King himself had provoked it, he would never have sent troops; this time, the elite forces suffered losses so severe that only a hundred remain!

He feels heartbroken!

"That exalted one's appearance caused us heavy losses; the deputy commander, in the battle to buy time for me, took a hit from the Titled Douluo with his body and died heroically. Please, Your Majesty, erect a memorial tomb for the fallen soldiers."

"That exalted one also said, this is a personal grudge between them and the Northern End King, with no intention of being hostile to the Heavenly Battle Imperial family; this time, out of respect for Your Majesty, they will not exterminate us. I hope Your Majesty will let this pass, not pursue it, for they will also leave Heavenly Water City and not appear again."

The general continued speaking.

After hearing this, the Snow Night Emperor sat down, leaning on the dragon throne, feeling utterly dejected; this breath is hard to swallow, but he must swallow it.

"They are all martyrs who died heroically for the Heavenly Battle Empire; naturally they should have memorial tombs. Let this matter rest here; suppress it, do not spread it abroad."

After much thought, he slowly opened his mouth; his whole person seemed to have aged ten years.

"Your subject obeys your order!" The general lowered his head; in a place unseen by others, his eyes flashed with a sharp light.

"Step back, I am weary." The Snow Night Emperor waved his hand.

"Your subject takes his leave!" The general quickly departed.

From now on, no one knows that the mysterious Li family has already reached into the military authority of the Heavenly Battle Imperial court; with the Li family's covert assistance, it will only spread even faster.

This is a very terrifying dark force, whose purpose is to dismantle a vast empire and control a state.

"This matter, it seems I need to discuss it with Dugu Bo and Sect Master Ning; the three Titled Douluo, if we can find that mysterious Titled Douluo, we might not be unable to take revenge; this anger, I still cannot easily swallow it."

"Where is my face? I must find a way to take revenge!"

After the general left, the Snow Night Emperor suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of unwilling cold light.

Now the only people I can think of to help me solve this thorny problem are these three.

He then immediately wrote two letters, having his most loyal confidants secretly deliver them to Dugu Bo's residence and to the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect's residence.

However, he did not realize that this was also inviting the wolf into the house.

Dugu Bo had long been the Li family's greatest protector.

All the calculations still didn't anticipate this development.

At the Crown Prince's residence, Qian Renxue frowned and asked, "She Shu, why haven't we received any news about the people we sent?"

"No news yet, but rest assured, he's a Soul Fighter, nothing will happen," She Long said confidently.

For some reason, Qian Renxue had a bad premonition: "You'd better go verify it."

"Alright." She Long left.

But he returned very soon.

"Young master, this matter has become complicated; we just received a report from a court spy, please have a look."

She Long handed the envelope in his hand to Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue's heart inexplicably lifted; when she opened the envelope, her pupils instantly contracted: "The Tian Dou army was defeated, only 101 survived? A mysterious titled Douluo appeared in Tian Shui City!?"

"That person actually has a titled Douluo behind them!?"

"Bad, the people we sent out are likely to meet a disastrous end!"

Qian Renxue felt her bad premonition growing stronger.

One must know that a Soul Fighter is nothing before a titled Douluo; they can be killed instantly with a casual strike!

They never imagined the opponent had a titled Douluo behind them.

It's simply absurd.

"Hmm, most likely they're gone." She Long nodded with a grim face.

A Soul Fighter is still very important in the Spirit Hall.
