Douluo: The Son of Martial Soul, Deceiving All the Women

Chapter 306 Smoothing Down the Little Angel

As the scent of the white fish brushed past her ear, Qian Renxue's struggles grew increasingly feeble.

But actions speak louder than words, so Qian Renxue strongly refuted Bai Yu's words.

"Who's worried about you? I'm just afraid you'll die here, and then your dear teacher will come after me!"

"And you'd better let me go right now, or I'll call for backup!"

"As the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, how can you be so rude? Is this how your Pope taught you?"

Bai Yu's lips twitched. He thought to himself, "This little angel is getting more and more impulsive. How did she even learn to make personal attacks?"
However, even though I got a good scolding, I can't let go. If I let go, it will be a lot of trouble to hug me back.

Then Bai Yu picked up Qian Renxue and stood up, walking towards the bedroom in the side hall, saying as they went:
"Not worried about me? I don't believe it! I know that someone used to hang around the door of my secluded chamber every day."

"Little angel, who is that person? I feel like I know them. Do you know them?"

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Qian Renxue's face flushed red. She bit Bai Yu's shoulder, slapped his back hard, and sobbed:

"I don't know! There's no such person. Did you ruin your brain by going into seclusion? Let me go right now, or I'll never forgive you!"

Baiyu didn't take Qian Renxue's reaction seriously at all. If it wasn't over yet, it wasn't over yet. If it were over, then it would be truly over.

After Bai Yu carried Qian Renxue into the bedroom, he closed the door behind him, then went to the bed and placed Qian Renxue on it.

"Baiyu, what are you trying to do? Let me tell you, I haven't forgiven you for what happened between you and Bibi Dong yet. Don't go too far!"

"Ugh...! No...don't do this, let me go, give me some more time..."

Bai Yu nodded but didn't agree to Qian Renxue's request until they were completely honest with each other. Then, Bai Yu patted Qian Renxue and said in a detached tone:

"Come on, lift it up a bit."

At this moment, Qian Renxue, somewhat dazed, actually complied with Baiyu's wishes. By the time she realized what was happening, it was already too late.

"Hmph~, you bastard! White Fish, you just wait... hmm~, you just wait!"

Nearly two hours later, the smoke-filled battle finally ended with the victory of the white fish.

Looking at Qian Renxue, who was still whining with a mixture of satisfaction and reluctance on her face, Bai Yu's lips curled up slightly, and she said with a smile:

"Xiaoxue, you lost again. Now tell me, what happened outside while I was in seclusion?"

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Qian Renxue rolled her eyes and thought to herself, "Who's competing with you, you beast? Didn't you force us to compete?"
But Qian Renxue didn't want to argue with him about this, afraid that she would be punished again.

He then slightly turned over and said in a somewhat lazy tone:

"Nothing major happened. It's just that Xingluo tried to launch a sneak attack on Tiandou, but I managed to stop them."

"After that, Xingluo changed its strategy. Instead of retreating and shrinking its forces, it began to put up a tough resistance and fight for every inch of land."

"However, with the support of the Spirit Hall, the Heaven Dou army still cannot defeat the Star Luo army on the front lines."

"The reason they've been able to hold out for so long is because the Star Luo Royal Family has misled some powerful families, making them want to take advantage of the situation and gain a huge benefit."

"Heh, but is it so easy to take advantage of others? If the Heaven Dou and the Spirit Hall were really that easy to deal with, the Star Luo Royal Family wouldn't be going around deceiving people." At this point, Qian Renxue paused slightly and turned her head to look at Bai Yu.

"Even with some clueless forces intervening to help, Xingluo is still suffering repeated defeats and is about to retreat to Xingluo City."

"What do you plan to do next? Will you proceed with the original plan, after destroying Xingluo, and take the opportunity to abolish the various kingdoms and duchies?"

"If that's the case, this great war will probably continue for some time, after all, those kingdoms and duchies won't let us do as we please."

In response to Qian Renxue's question, Bai Yu looked up and let out a long sigh, saying with a somewhat helpless expression:

"Let's continue. We've come this far, there's no reason to give up halfway. Otherwise, wouldn't all our previous research on state, county, and town plans have been for nothing?"

That's right, Baiyu plans to modify and promote the county system of their ancestors in Douluo Continent.

The previously established kingdoms and duchies were abolished, and the land was divided into states, replaced by a five-tiered system that included the capital.

The central government governed all the prefectures, and then the prefectures were divided into counties, towns, and districts.

Township and county officials are replaced every three years, prefectural officials every five years, and governors every ten years. This system helps to prevent unnecessary chaos from arising in various places.

At the same time, the previous independence of various places was eliminated, so that the common people on the mainland could live a slightly better life.

After all, with the existence of the Kingdom and Duchy, even the two great empires of today have no right to interfere in its internal affairs.

Whether the common people under his rule lived well or not depended entirely on the king's reign. If the king was calm and composed, they would live better lives.

If the king can cause trouble, then it's all over. Add to that the exploitation by the nobles, and life or death will be entirely up to fate.

As for rebellion? Impossible! What kind of place is this? There are supernatural powers here, after all.

How many ordinary people do you need to gather to kill a high-level Soul Master?
They don't need to be too high-level. Just have a Soul Saint who plays with poison, and an army of ordinary people. How many of them will die?

That's why Baiyu wanted to unify the continent. After all, with only one country, the power within the court was mutually restrained, so the extent to which each person could cause trouble was very limited.

After all, if you go too far, your opponents will seize the opportunity and attack you fiercely. Even the emperor is no exception; he cannot do whatever he wants as some people imagine.

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Qian Renxue nodded, indicating that she understood.

"In that case, you should go to the front line for a while. With you in charge of the army, I can start dealing with the vassal states within the Tiandou territory."

"Otherwise, when Xingluo is destroyed and they start to abolish the ducal kingdoms, the front line will probably be in chaos."

"After all, more than half of the current Heavenly Dou Army are from various vassal states. If they hear that their country is going to be abolished, it is hard to guarantee that something will not happen."

"Moreover, there are also the vassal states of Xingluo. The destruction of Xingluo does not mean that those vassal states have also been destroyed."

"If it weren't for the abolition of vassal states, they would probably have changed their status and continued as nobles."

"But once this gets out, they will surely stir up trouble and try to restore the monarchy. After all, no nobleman is as appealing as a king."
