Chapter 209
The emergence of soul-guided weapons has made the turmoil in this world more obvious; some scheming and reckless people have begun to provoke the empire's majesty. Marshal Zhang, I appoint you to lead the troops and eradicate all reactionary elements that have recently appeared within the empire's territory.
In the Tiandou Imperial Palace, above the court, the Snow Night Emperor was flipping through memorials, speaking in a low voice.
I will obey your orders! A tall and mighty man clad in heavy armor stepped forward, received the decree, and then departed.
Because today's meeting is special, Titan, this Elder who protects the state, was also invited to come and listen; he sat beside the Snow Night Emperor.
But he never voluntarily speaks up about court affairs; his mere presence serves as a deterrent to all civil and military officials.
It must be said, he just sits there, and all civil and military officials dare not raise their heads.
The oppressive force was intense; some people didn't even dare to breathe, thinking only of cooperating well, quickly withdrawing from court, and leaving this place that made them uncomfortable.
Titan's gaze swept over the civil and military officials.
What the Snow Night Emperor didn't know was that many people here had already been secretly replaced by Li family undercover agents.
Some were directly bribed, some were directly planted; among all these people under them, there were Li family undercover agents.
The Li family's warriors each possessed the strength of a Title Douluo; they concealed their cultivation and would not reveal it unless absolutely necessary.
Now that the plan hasn't started yet, they are all accompanying the Snow Night Emperor in putting on an act.
If the Snow Night Emperor were to find out about this, who knows if he'd be so angry as to vomit blood and die.
Good fellow, I promoted you, and you're playing this with me? 'Power Protector Dharma, what do you think about this? Feel free to speak.'
Suddenly, the Snow Night Emperor looked at Titan, smiled slightly, and asked.
Everyone's gaze turned toward them.
In the eyes of Prince Snow Star, a flicker of complex light also passed.
Now, if one wants to turn the tide against the wind, to take the crown prince position from the already-confirmed Crown Prince Snow Qinghe and have Snow Avalanche seize it to become the future emperor of the the Heaven Dou Empire, then the support of this important figure is essential.
If we can win him over, this matter will surely succeed.
But he also understands that the difficulty of this matter is great.
If he were to act himself, it would expose his purpose.
The other party would likely tell the Snow Night Emperor that this is not what he wants to see; the imperial family's waters are deep, and Qian Renxue, disguised as Crown Prince Snow Qinghe, is intentionally or unintentionally sizing up Titan.
«This guy's aura is indeed terrifying; truly worthy of being a Super Douluo with a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring. »
Qian Renxue thought to herself.
Now the Divine Craftsmen Pavilion is heavily guarded; Titan's strength is great, already having alerted the enemy, so they cannot continue acting against Titan for the time being, at least in the short term.
They must wait for the opponent to relax their guard before striking with full force.
Next, they are plotting the Star Luo Empire's Dan Pavilion.
But, considering various reasons, they did not act immediately.
Because the Spear Snake Douluo and the Spiny Pig Douluo need to protect her safety and cannot leave.
Therefore, the Thousand Jin Douluo and the Subduing Demon Douluo can only first send a message back to the Spirit Hall to regroup.
Titan thought for a moment, smiled slightly, and said: «I support Your Majesty's resolute crackdown, determined to exterminate all reactionary elements within the empire at any cost; I have no objections to other matters, and will follow Your Majesty's will. »
Now we must completely confuse the Snow Night Emperor.
Play the act well.
Everything is cooperating with you.
Meanwhile, I secretly keep arranging people to cause trouble, then gather land, scatter land, and stir up divisions among the princely states.
That is where his purpose lies.
The Snow Night Emperor was very pleased with Titan's answer.
The emperor is most suspicious; once Titan publicly utters something that doesn't align with him, it will arouse his inner displeasure, worsen his impression of Titan, and even cause him to be on guard everywhere.
Titan's answer, which takes him as the main point, not only shows it before him but also lets everyone see that this Protector Dharma Elder follows the emperor's opinion in everything.
This further deepens the emperor's awe-inspiring authority in the hearts of the civil and military officials.
«The army must not move about; guarding the borders is a heavy responsibility. From now on, I will establish the Counter-Reaction Department, directly under my control, reporting directly to me; their task is to purge all covert and overt reactionary forces within the empire. »
The Snow Night Emperor spoke.
«The head of the Counter-Reaction Department shall be Titan, the Guardian Elder! » As soon as the Snow Night Emperor said this, the hall erupted in an uproar.
Everyone looked toward the Snow Night Emperor and Titan.
Although some harbored objections in their hearts, they dared not speak them, for no one would dare offend a Title Douluo.
Moreover, this is a Super Douluo possessing a red hundred-thousand-year spirit ring.
His strength is terrifying beyond compare.
Titan was also somewhat surprised by the Snow Night Emperor's sudden decision.
Yet inwardly he revealed a sly smile.
Just as he was feeling drowsy, a pillow was brought to him.
He was still wondering how to reasonably arrange a large batch of Li family members to enter, but now the other party directly appointed him publicly as the head of the Counter-Reaction Department.
Thus, he could covertly control even more matters.
The reactionary forces are those backed by the Li family behind the scenes.
You are obstructing the progress of my Li family.
How could I possibly let you succeed?
What the Snow Night Emperor is doing is actually also an effort to better win over Titan, making him thoroughly a person of the the Heaven Dou Empire.
This is also a kind of trust and test toward Titan.
«Thank you for Your Majesty's trust; I will surely not disappoint expectations, and will definitely lead the Counter-Reaction Department to purge all reactionary forces within the empire's borders! »
«As long as they dare to show their heads, they will certainly be slain without mercy! »
Titan nodded slightly, giving the Snow Night Emperor full face.
For now, we still can't let the other side become suspicious.
He also needs to appear very loyal to the the Heaven Dou Empire.
Anyway, everything is for a better performance.
Good!
The Snow Night Emperor is very pleased.
Looking down at the civil and military officials below, he asked: "Do you have any objections to my arrangements?"
We have no objections!
Everyone present are old foxes of a thousand years; they still don't know this is a show put on by the Snow Night Emperor and Titan, specially staged for them to see.
If Titan finds out what they're thinking, they'll surely cry injustice. I really don't know.
Moreover, many of the people here are from the Li family.
They are even less likely to oppose.
The Counter-Insurgency Department holds high rank and great power, its strength is quite terrifying.
Qian Renxue's eyes flashed with brief panic, but she quickly composed herself.
I didn't expect the old Snow Night thing to pull this trick; the next move won't be easy, but this is also my first opportunity.
Suddenly, she calmed down and came up with a plan against Titan.
In her eyes appeared a gleam of wisdom.
Hehe, Titan, you will surely die this time!
Her plan has already been rehearsed in her mind; as long as things proceed smoothly, that guy Titan will surely die! After Titan dies, the remaining affairs of the the Heaven Dou Empire will return to the planned track and continue.
Very well, court is dismissed!
The Snow Night Emperor nodded satisfactorily and waved his hand.
Everyone bowed and took their leave.
