Douluo Continent: Gretchen at the start, empowered by the Star God.

Chapter 104 Discussing Details

"Unify the continent?" Qian Renxue was slightly surprised, but that was all.

After all, the Spirit Hall originally had this plan.

Her plan to seize the country was preparation for this goal.

As for why the Spirit Hall has so many Title Douluos, it still takes so much effort to deal with the Heaven Dou Empire, which has no Title Douluos who are absolutely loyal to it.

The fundamental reason is that the titled Douluo in Douluo Continent are actually not that great.

A top expert from a continent could be killed by sheer numbers of ordinary people, and the number of ordinary people was not even that many; compared to the number of ordinary people in the Douluo Continent, it was just a drop in the ocean.

The cultivation methods of the Title Douluo in Douluo Continent and Lang Lei are quite different. Their combat power is basically all in their Martial Soul, and the operation of the Martial Soul requires the support of Soul Power. Once the Soul Power is exhausted, ordinary people can kill them with swords with a little effort.

Lang Lei, on the other hand, takes the path of honing his physical body. Even if his soul power is exhausted, if he stands still, ordinary people cannot break through his defenses.

Moreover, with the support of being "down-to-earth," there's no need to worry about this issue at all.

Therefore, the Spirit Hall came up with this method to counter the Heaven Dou Empire, which had a large number of ordinary troops.

"That's right, I will provide you with appropriate assistance in the process." Lang Lei nodded.

This was the result of his careful consideration. In his mind, only when the mainland was unified could many ideas be realized more smoothly; otherwise, a lot of effort would be wasted, which would be very uneconomical.

As for why Qian Renxue was chosen...

Perhaps it's because the other party is one of the few normal strong individuals he knows from the Douluo Continent...

As for the series of love-struck behaviors in the later parts of the original work...

Lang Lei is more inclined to believe that it was the gods of the Douluo Continent world who intervened.

Otherwise, how could a brilliant person who could have infiltrated the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire for nearly ten years since childhood become like that?

"I'm fine with it." Qian Renxue nodded, then looked at Lang Lei strangely. "In fact, this was our Spirit Hall's original goal, you didn't know that, did you?"

If it weren't for the angelic beauty Alicia by Lang Lei's side, Qian Renxue would have suspected that Lang Lei had feelings for her.

"Of course I know." Lang Lei smiled. "What I just said was merely a prerequisite for our cooperation, while the assistance I provide to you is equivalent to an upfront investment."

Tell me about it?

"After unifying the continent, give me the position of Imperial Advisor. Also, whatever policies I promote, you must fully implement them," Lang Lei said. "Don't worry, I won't do anything that would anger heaven and man, nor will I try to sideline you or anything like that."

"After all, with my strength, it wouldn't be difficult for me to establish my own power and unify the continent, it's just a bit troublesome."

Qian Renxue nodded in agreement. In the end, strength determines everything in this world. If Lang Lei establishes a power, then Alicia and Little Gresh will definitely join. The two women are like the sky, pressing down on their power.

Leaving aside Alicia, Little Gresh, and Langlei himself, the Xuanbing and Lihuo alone are enough to place Langlei and his group above the three upper sects.

"Of course I have no such concerns," Qian Renxue said. "I can agree to that request. Is there anything else?"

"That's all." Lang Lei shook his head. All he needed was the absolute support of a country's top leader.

As for the rest...

He doesn't lack it, nor does he need it.

As for the possibility that Qian Renxue might go back on her word...

Lang Lei felt that Qian Renxue's mind was still relatively normal, and she wouldn't choose to antagonize him before she had the strength to confront him.

Furthermore, Qian Renxue is unlikely to be the type of person to go back on her word.

"Alright... If you need anything later, just let me know, and I'll be happy to help you anytime," Qian Renxue promised.

"Okay, I got it." Lang Lei nodded. "Just don't go back on your word later."

"No, it won't happen," Qian Renxue said confidently.

"Then you'd better grow up quickly, at least reach the Title Douluo level first, right?" Lang Lei teased. "You're the only one on the continent with innate super soul power, someone who awakened with level 20 soul power. Being at this level now is a bit of a waste of your talent..."

"It's all because I'm busy with the plan to seize the country!" Qian Renxue was also quite troubled by this. "I'm busy dealing with those ministers all day long, and I also have to handle government affairs. There's just too little time for cultivation."

"There's nothing I can do about that. Good luck to you." Lang Lei shrugged.

"So, how do you plan to help me?" Qian Renxue decided to stop thinking about it and asked.

"I can't keep my visit here today a secret. By the time I leave, those people will probably be getting restless." Lang Lei smiled. "You can tell the outside world that you've already gained my initial support. I'm sure Xue Ye, that emperor, hasn't been in power for nothing all these years; he'll understand the implications."

"Of course, if anyone asks me, I will give a positive answer," Lang Lei said. "Of course, we can't talk about our deal, but if we achieved results so easily without any conditions, most people probably won't believe it. Here's what you'll do: tell Xue Ye that I've set my sights on the Heavenly Dou Empire's national treasure, the Vast Ocean Universe Cover. If you can get it, I will truly support you. This way, we can dispel most people's doubts."

The Vast Ocean Universe Cover was like a useless item to Lang Lei, but he still had reasons to want to get his hands on it.

Firstly, as mentioned earlier, it dispels external doubts.

Secondly, Lang Lei didn't know whether the Vast Ocean Universe Cover was essentially a mineral, or whether the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda could absorb it, but it was never a loss to give it a try.

Thirdly, it also conveniently cuts off another important opportunity for Tang San.

Lang Lei believed that Xue Ye would agree, after all, in the original work, when the other party gave it to Tang San, they were incredibly willing to offer it up.

Moreover, the value that Tang San demonstrated back then was far less than that of Lang Lei now. There's no reason why Tang San could do it but Lang Lei couldn't.

"You dare to say that? Although I don't know where you got the knowledge of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover from, it is a national treasure of the Heavenly Dou Empire. How can it be given away so easily?" Qian Renxue lightly punched Lang Lei.

"Give it a try, I think it's possible," Lang Lei said confidently.

"Alright, I'll do as you say." Qian Renxue agreed.

"Oh, by the way, to show my sincerity, I'll give you these two items."

Lang Lei gave Qian Renxue the rabbit that Xiao Wu had transformed into and the rooster-crest phoenix sunflower.

After all, the rabbit had been kept as a pet by little Gretsch. Lang Lei had asked Gretsch's opinion beforehand and took it away only after receiving her consent, and said that he would find her a better one later.

"This is?"
