Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 254: The Confusion of the Girl Who Confesses with Meng Hongchen

After hearing what Meng Hongchen said, Yuwen Tuo was a little stunned.

She asked the spirits of the Ice and Snow Emperors within her body, "Sisters, is Meng Hongchen speaking the language of Douluo Continent? Why can't I understand a single word?"

"I don't know, maybe it's the dialect of the Sun and Moon Continent?" Xue Di said.

Bingdi suddenly had an idea, "Wait, Xiaotuo, this little girl, doesn't she think you are trying to win the throne?"

"Struggle for the throne?" Yuwen Tuo asked in shock. "Did I do anything to cause her to misunderstand? Who wants to seize the throne without being close to the emperor and openly scolding the crown prince all day long? Aren't all my actions just intentional trouble-making?"

He came to the Sun-Moon Empire, not only to complete his own goal and investigate the evil soul master who destroyed the village, but also to help Emperor Xuexin of the Sky Soul Empire to disrupt the Sun-Moon Empire court.

"No, from your own perspective, you are indeed making trouble, but from the perspective of others, it is indeed an alternative way to seize the throne." The Snow Emperor also figured it out. After all, the Ice and Snow Emperors were originally kings of the Far North.

"Xiao Tuo, I can see that the Sun-Moon Emperor is seriously ill and will not live long. He only has a few years left. If he were in his prime, forbearance and biding his time would indeed be the best option. But now, if he wants to seize the throne, he can no longer wait. He must take drastic measures and strike hard to establish a strong foothold in the court. I'm afraid your previous series of actions have inadvertently given rise to such thoughts."

"So that's how it is. If the emperor thinks so too, then I might have accidentally been included in the list of candidates for the throne." Yuwen Tuo pondered.

"Then, Xiao Tuo, what are you thinking?" Bingdi asked. "Given your current situation, you have two choices. The best option is to go with the flow. Since they think you're trying to seize the throne, why not take advantage of it and seize the throne first? Then, use the power of the Sun-Moon Empire to destroy the Holy Spirit Cult. Once the dust settles, you can give the Sun-Moon Empire to your senior sister. This way, you can achieve your goal without bloodshed, retire after your victory, and focus on becoming a god!"

"The second option is to make things clear with this Miss Xiaomeng and be sincere with her. Don't lie to her."

Xue Di said, "Little brother Xiaotuo, no matter which one you choose, Bing'er and I will support you. The first method has the greatest benefits, but..."

Xue Di hesitated to speak. She acknowledged the superiority of the first method. If Yuwen Tuo chose the first method, she would have no objection, but if he chose the second method, she would be more relieved.

She didn't want the person she chose to be someone who would do anything for the sake of profit. After all, Meng Hongchen had no grudges against him, and she shouldn't be deceived into giving away her girlish heart.

The plan provided by Bingdi made Yuwen Tuo hesitate for a moment. Indeed, this should be the best way.

However, that does not suit Yuwen Tuo's personality.
He walked up to Meng Hongchen and said, "Xiao Meng, whether you believe it or not, I have no interest in the throne of the emperor. So, if you want to help me win the throne, or even bring Mingde Hall to help me win the throne, you should give up as soon as possible."

He decisively chose to give up. Indeed, Bingdi's method was effective.

However, he had to deceive a large group of people first, such as Meng Hongchen and others, and let them help him complete the fight for the throne, and then they would expect him to become his loyal ministers.

But he handed all his efforts to Vina. How could he be worthy of those who sincerely helped and protected him along the way to the throne? Where would that put them?

After the Sun Moon Empire was given to the Sky Soul Empire, how would Meng Hongchen and his group react? How would they feel about supporting an emperor who betrayed the country? At that time, they might even want to commit suicide to apologize.

And even if they choose to live in disgrace, in that situation, can Vina really tolerate such destabilizing factors as them?
Maybe it’s possible while I’m here, but what about after I’m gone, or what about Vina’s next generation?

But it is impossible for Yuwen Tuo to become the emperor.

Firstly, he had no interest. He only wanted to become a god, and then surpass the gods until he surpassed the limits of this world and broke through the limitations of the plane. Secondly, in his heart, he was a citizen of the Tianhun Empire from beginning to end in this life. How could he become the emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire?
Meng Hongchen and the others will not become traitors, but will Yuwen Tuo?
Instead of doing this, it would be better not to let them help him from the beginning. He will take over the Sun and Moon Empire, but not by deceiving Meng Hongchen's feelings, letting them help him win the throne first, and then betraying them in the end. Such despicable means.

While deception is permitted on the battlefield, outside of it, unless facing a deep hatred, one might resort to any means necessary. As for an innocent person like Meng Hongchen, with no grudges or animosity, it would be wiser to be fair and square with her. Yuwen Tuo also knew that his thinking was destined to prevent him from becoming a leader. After all, since ancient times, how many people who aspired to the throne were clean? But that was simple: if it couldn't happen, then so be it. "You don't want to fight for the throne?" Meng Hongchen was startled. She had always believed that Yuwen Tuo's goal was to take the throne, but now, from his tone, it didn't seem like he was joking.

"Then why have you been deliberately targeting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Why would Yuwen Tuo do such a thing for no reason? Could it be that he really hated the Crown Prince so much just because he found him too late, causing him to suffer for so many years?

Meng Hongchen didn't know what Xu Tianran had done. Yuwen Tuo's village was massacred because of him, and he would never forgive him for this.

"This is my business, Xiao Meng. If you just want to be friends with me, I, Yuwen Tuo, welcome you at any time. But if you approach me because you want to help me win the throne, I still want to tell you, give up. The more you help me now, the greater the disappointment in the future." Yuwen Tuo shook his head, picked up his luggage, walked out of the room, and left Mingde Hall.

Meng Hongchen stood alone quietly in Yuwen Tuo's room, completely confused.

After leaving Mingde Hall, Yuwen Tuo did not go directly to Prince Yan's Mansion, but came to the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. He was looking for someone here.

Since he already has the power to kill the evil soul master without reporting to the authorities later, he must of course use it.

The Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, as the first academy of the Sun-Moon Empire, although not as large as Shrek Academy, its sense of technology is second only to Mingde Hall.

Compared to here, Shrek Academy’s soul guides seem to be just getting started.

One still has an old-fashioned tiered classroom, while the other is a modern college.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Yan!"

Yuwen Tuo has been extremely high-profile recently, and many people know him. It was not surprising that he came to the academy, whether students or teachers.

Because they heard that the emperor had always wanted Yuwen Tuo to enroll here, so that in the future he could represent the academy and participate in the Continental Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition in more than three years.

Although the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy is well-known throughout the continent, it can only be ranked second in everyone's mind. After all, they have been suppressed by Shrek Academy for thousands of years.

If this incredibly powerful Prince Yan, who has already killed two Titled Douluo, joins in, they will definitely be able to change history next time.

Yuwen Tuo casually grabbed a young man and asked, "Classmate, do you know a girl named Nana? She should be in the Soul Control Instructor class."

"So Your Highness wants to find Senior Nana. She should be testing new soul guides at the soul guide test site now. I'll take you there." said the young man.

It seems that Nana is also a big shot in the academy, you can tell by asking.

This is also an opportunity to please the prince, and most people will certainly not miss it.

However, the young man was still a little confused. Was this Prince Yan familiar with Senior Nana? Hadn't he just returned to the Sun Moon Empire not long ago? Wasn't this even his first time at the academy?

Could it be that he has taken a fancy to Senior Nana?

Although Senior Sister Nana is very talented, she is not a peerless beauty in terms of appearance. In any case, she is not as beautiful as the school belle Meng Hongchen. With the status of Prince Yan, he can have any kind of beauty he wants, so why should he look for Nana?
