Douluo Dalu: The Frozen Throne

Chapter 177 Progress and Results, Working Day and Night Ling Luochen

In the Starlight Hall, Xu Jiawei looked at the information sent from various places. A hint of anger rose on his dignified and stiff face, and then he laughed out loud for no reason out of anger.

"Okay, okay, these guys are really not honest. Some of them even dared to collude with Sun and Moon to sell out their country's intelligence. They are really brave. If we hadn't acted suddenly this time, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to find out these things with a cursory glance..."

Below, Shu Yan and Xu Jiujiu sat together. The two listened to what Xu Jiawei said and were not surprised at all.

Xu Jiujiu stepped forward and poured a cup of tea for Xu Jiawei, then said softly:

"Brother, don't be angry. Over the years, the Sun-Moon Empire has been infiltrating our Xingluo and Tianhun Empires. It is not uncommon for nobles to be brainwashed and willing to work for them. Everyone can see that our soul guidance technology is at least a thousand years behind that of the Sun-Moon Empire. The gap in national strength is obvious. Many people want to leave a way out for themselves. What's more, according to A Yan, the Sun-Moon Empire even has soul guides that can threaten extreme Douluo-level masters, while our original Douluo Three Kingdoms, except for the Quenching Star Tower in your hand, have no self-produced ninth-level soul guides."

Xu Jiawei put down the information in his hand, took a sip of tea, and then said:

"In the past half month, the aristocracy of Xingluo City has been almost completely cleared out. All the families or forces that have shown signs of resistance have been liquidated, and the wealth confiscated is an astronomical figure! Good news has also come from all over the country. According to A Yan, the first people to be liquidated by the empire are those leaders with the highest status, the greatest power, and the strongest voices of resistance. Once these leaders are liquidated, the group of guys who follow behind them are nothing more than a mob. Even if they want to resist, they can never cause any trouble with their limited power."

"It's better to be careful. No one knows if these guys will do something desperate. Although the soul masters we have are powerful, they are scattered all over the place. The army needs to cooperate with them. Remember, we must cut the grass and root it out. No matter whether the problematic families or forces are men, women, young or old, as long as they can be traced, we would rather kill them by mistake than let them go."

Shu Yan said softly that this liquidation that swept across the entire Xing Luo had been going smoothly so far. More than a dozen Titled Douluo led the action. The forces without Titled Douluo had almost no power to resist. Even if there was, they would lose their composure when they were attacked. The smarter guys surrendered on their own initiative after hearing the news. If there were no major problems, they could be considered for acceptance, but if it was discovered that they had done something too outrageous, they would have no choice but to be liquidated.

The hall was silent for a moment, and Shu Yan suddenly asked:
"How have other empires reacted recently?"

Xu Jiujiu glanced at Xu Jiawei, then said softly:

"There was no major reaction from the Heavenly Soul and Douling Spirits. The Sun and Moon Empire is not sure, but according to what our people in the Western Legion said, everything is normal."

Shu Yan nodded. At this time, countries would not tear each other apart. The old emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire was seriously ill, the crown prince Xu Tianran was ambitious, and other princes who were qualified to compete for the throne were also ready to make a move. The domestic situation of the Sun-Moon Empire was in turmoil, and the pressure of the succession of the throne made it difficult for them to foolishly start a war in a short period of time.

"Let's speed up everything. We need to deal with all the families or forces that need to be liquidated within at least half a year. All their remaining property should be deposited into the national treasury. The empire has no shortage of talents who want to climb up the ladder. We should pick some to fill the vacancies. Only then can we start the second stage naturally."

Shu Yan gave a final warning, then he stood up, looked at the sky outside the palace, and continued:
"Brother, it's getting late. Jiujiu and I will go back first. Although official duties are heavy, health is also our capital. Let's rest early."

Xu Jiujiu came to Shu Yan and bowed gently to Xu Jiawei. Xu Jiawei looked gentle, then nodded and watched the two of them leave before continuing to review the memorials on hand. …

After returning to the princess's mansion, Ruan Qinyu and Su Tong had been waiting for a long time.

Xue Di had personally guided Su Tong once these days. Of course, she was also very surprised when she learned that Su Tong also possessed the Ice and Snow Girl Martial Spirit. However, the first time she saw Su Tong, she realized that although Su Tong's Ice and Snow Girl Martial Spirit was from the same source as hers, the bloodline level was much lower. However, after all, they were half of the same clan, so she was still very happy to guide Su Tong.

With the guidance of Xue Di and Su Tong's own comprehension, after half a month, Su Tong had shown signs of breaking through to the Soul Emperor.

After she enters the Soul Emperor realm, Snow Empress will have to consider whether to teach her the Three Wonders of Snow Empress. In terms of martial soul and talent, Su Tong is undoubtedly qualified to learn these three soul skills that she developed based on the essence of the Ice and Snow Girl. Moreover, the other party has a special identity as Shu Yan's biological sister, so there is no need to worry that she will pass it on to others. Thinking of this, Snow Empress has made a decision.

When Su Tong was about to break through, Xu Jiujiu also stepped into the 59th level, and Ling Luochen was almost the same. The octagonal black ice crystal had a remarkable effect. It helped her martial soul enter the ultimate ice and there was still nearly 40% of the energy left. These energies accelerated her cultivation speed a lot in a short period of time, but after she broke through to the Soul Emperor, this acceleration would automatically disappear.

It was still a bit stressful to search for suitable sixth soul rings for the three people at the same time. Among them, Xu Jiujiu needed a hundred thousand year sixth ring. She had gained the most benefits from following Shu Yan over the years. With the fairy grass and top-level soul bones, her body had long reached the point where it could absorb a hundred thousand year soul ring independently.

Su Tong and Ling Luochen also need powerful soul beasts of more than 50,000 years. Meng Ning received the eight-petal fairy orchid from Shu Yan. Her soul power level is about to break through the Soul Sect. After tempering her body, she can try to absorb the ten thousand year soul ring. Her black demon martial soul itself has spiritual attributes, which makes her mental power surpass the strength of her body cultivation. Her problem lies more in her physical fitness.

Of course, if she starts to practice her second martial soul, the Heavenly Star Furnace, her physical disadvantages will be made up for at a very fast speed, and her soul power level will begin to grow explosively.

Shu Yan's request to her was very simple. She needed to wait until she advanced to Soul Saint before adding soul rings to her second martial soul. In this way, even if her second martial soul could not obtain a 100,000-year soul ring, it would at least be nine black soul rings of more than 50,000 years. After that, it would be extremely easy for her to advance to Titled Douluo or even Super Douluo.

Later, Ling Luochen came back from outside. She looked a little tired, which was just as Shu Yan had expected. Qiangu Yueyin's strength was almost at the same level as hers. Although the Unyielding Stick Technique in this era was not as concise and powerful as in later generations, it had reached a new level after Qiangu Chaosheng's refinement for more than a hundred years. The power of heaven and earth itself was an extremely powerful energy, and the unyielding nature of the Evil-Breaking Dragon Soul made her fight more and more courageous. In the end, Ling Luochen might even be at a disadvantage.

Qiangu Yueyin reminded Ling Luochen of the Shrek Inner Court. The geniuses there were all as difficult to deal with as Qiangu Yueyin. They were all the best in the same level, with top-notch martial spirits and personalities. But she had to admit that she did have a conflict with Qiangu Yueyin, whose personality was somewhat similar to hers.

Thinking of this, Ling Luochen pinched the big hand that secretly touched her thigh. Shu Yan was getting bolder and bolder. These days, she practiced fighting during the day and had to be dragged by someone to practice at night. The key point was that Xu Jiujiu lived next door to her. She didn't even dare to make a sound. Shu Yan often played tricks on her. Sometimes she couldn't control her emotions, so she could only cover her mouth and suppress the sound... The most outrageous thing came. After the initial sense of shame passed, the key point was that she herself gradually felt happy in it, and always felt a strange sense of excitement...

　I caught a cold this morning because of the huge temperature difference while riding in the car. I had a low-grade fever all day and I still have a headache now. This is the only chapter I'll write today. I'm going to ask for leave because I'm not in a good condition and I really can't write anymore. My throat hurts, my head hurts, and my skin is too brittle. I'll make up for the words tomorrow if I recover.
