Douluo Continent: Newcomer Yuhao, thank you Lan Xuanyu

Chapter 208 We must strike hard against the Douling Empire!

'

The air freezes.

When the Haotian Sect disciple saw Lan Xuanyu twirling around in a skirt, looking narcissistic, he almost vomited on the spot.

Girls wearing men's clothes are considered cool, while boys wearing women's clothes are considered perverted. Of course, if you are good-looking enough and look perfectly natural in them, that's another story.

But the key issue is that Lan Xuanyu's appearance is just too jarring.

Lan Xuanyu quickly reached out his hand, "Hey, hey, I... I can explain—"

"What a pervert!!!"

The Haotian Sect disciple didn't give Lan Xuanyu a chance to explain and closed the door without hesitation.

He felt like he was about to throw up his lunch. Seeing such a disgusting scene, he wished he could gouge out his own eyes.

"It's over—" Lan Xuanyu slumped to the ground, feeling utterly hopeless.

He quickly tore off his skirt, changed back into his own clothes, and then chased after her.

No matter the cost, even if it means killing him, this secret must be kept.

But they didn't see the Haotian Sect disciple at all.

Unfortunately, bad news travels fast, and in less than an afternoon, everyone in the entire Haotian Sect knew that this Lan Xuanyu was a pervert who secretly wore women's clothing!

The disciples he encountered at the Haotian Sect whispered among themselves and looked at him with disdain, their gazes so intense that Lan Xuanyu wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground.

Back then, when he dressed as a woman, he was so stunningly beautiful that a bunch of clueless cavemen couldn't see it!

Even Da Ming and Er Ming specifically called him over for questioning, their words carrying a hint of strangeness and warning.

Unable to bear staying at the Haotian Sect any longer, Lan Xuanyu set off for the Sun Moon Empire overnight, without even saying goodbye to Wang Dong.

As for Princess Dong—for some reason, she has been sleeping most of the time and hasn't been cultivating. When she wakes up, she is in a daze, as if she is sleepwalking, and she mutters something from time to time.

Erming asked with some concern, "Big brother, what exactly is wrong with Xiaoqi? Could it be something to do with his soul—"

Da Ming immediately glared at him fiercely, which frightened Er Ming so much that he quickly shut his mouth and dared not say anything more.

"Her father is protecting her; it's not something we should worry about. Besides, it's not time yet. Based on the calculation of the sealing time, even if something goes wrong, it should happen around the age of twenty."

"But—" Da Ming hesitated, "I don't know what to do. Should I really go find that Huo Yuhao and ask him to pick the Acacia Heartbreak Red for Xiao Qi?"

Niu Da and Hou Er naturally knew the harsh conditions for picking the Acacia Heartbreak Red, but the key point was that Huo Yuhao and Xiao Qi had no emotional foundation at all!

On the other hand, regarding Lan Xuanyu—never mind, let's not consider that for now.

Erming swung his fist, as big as a clay pot, and shouted, "Why worry about so much! Just grab him! Xiaoqi is so beautiful, she'll definitely charm him. If all else fails, we can use the Light of the Sea God to brainwash him!"

Da Ming looked at his brother with a strange expression.

This really is my super wisdom telling me to use my super power!

Da Ming also didn't hold back in pouring cold water on the idea, asking, "Do you even know where he is?"

"I know them! The Body Sect, of course. We'll go find them and raze their headquarters to the ground. I refuse to believe we can't find them!"

"Let me think about this first."

Nighttime, Xingluo Palace.

Xu Jiawei stood there, lost in thought, before an exquisite map of the mainland. The fine tea on the table had gone cold.

As emperor, his position was not easy; he faced immense pressure.

Fortunately, the internal troubles brought by the White Tiger Dai family have been resolved, but the external troubles have not been resolved. Although the soul guidance technology in the country has made some progress, even a fool would know that the gap between China and the Sun Moon Empire is not small.

Among the four nations of Douluo Continent, apart from the Sun Moon Empire, the Star Luo Empire is the strongest in terms of overall strength, followed by the Heavenly Soul Empire, and the weakest is the Douling Empire.

First and foremost is the threat from the Sun and Moon Empire. Over the past four thousand years, no one knows the extent of their accumulated power.

As the head of the Star Crown Xu family, and with the intuition of a titled Douluo and the former emperor, Xu Jiawei was certain that the Sun Moon Empire would not be at peace for long.

If war breaks out again, can he save the Star Luo Empire?

Not only does the Sun Moon Empire aspire to unify the continent, but Xu Jiawei does too. What ambitious emperor wouldn't want to lead his army, wielding swords and galloping across the land, to expand his territory?

But in the current situation, let alone expanding territory, just being able to preserve the territory of the Star Luo Empire would be considered a stroke of good fortune.

Thinking of this, his gaze irresistibly fell on the Douling Empire located in the northeast.

He couldn't help but raise his hand, his fingers tracing every border of the Douling Empire, muttering to himself, "This location is really good."

ah----"

The Douling Empire is separated from the Sun Moon Empire by the Star Luo Empire and the Heavenly Soul Empire, as well as Shrek Academy. In other words, if the Sun Moon Empire wants to reach the doorstep of the Douling Empire, it must first get past the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Star Luo Empire.

If the Sun Moon Empire is blocked by the Heavenly Soul and Star Luo Empires, their Fighting Spirit Empire can continue to play music and dance.

If these two empires are destroyed by the Sun and Moon Empire, we can simply open the city gates and surrender.

Those who understand the times are wise; this is an eternal truth.

This natural geographical advantage allowed the Douling Empire royal family, the Xue family, the legitimate royal family of the Tiandou Empire ten thousand years ago, to rest easy all year round. Not only was it the weakest of the three kingdoms in the original Douluo Continent, but it was also the slowest to develop soul tools. Even when the Tianhun Empire in the original timeline was destroyed, they were still "playing music and dancing" until the entire royal family was wiped out by a single level nine fixed-position soul tool cannonball—truly a hopeless case.

If it weren't for the Sun Moon Empire eyeing the country covetously from the outside, and Shrek Academy acting as a troublemaker internally, organizing the war between the three kingdoms of Douluo under the guise of supervision...

Perhaps the Heavenly Soul Empire has already launched a war against the Fighting Spirit Empire.

Xu Jiawei narrowed his eyes slightly. Shrek Academy was much more well-behaved than usual. According to the news from the Sun Moon Empire, the emperor was seriously ill and bedridden, and several princes were fighting each other for the throne. It was a good opportunity.

The Douling Empire is occupying a position without fulfilling its duties, with its nobles indulging in extravagance and wasting resources, causing considerable resentment among the people. This situation is quite advantageous for Xingluo.

Should we test the waters? Even if we can't take it, we can try to seize a few pieces of territory as preparation. We can also check the combat effectiveness of the domestic army. After all, only the Northwest Army Group has been fighting in recent years, and the other standing corps have not been involved in any large-scale wars.

Thinking this, Xu Jiawei clenched his fists.

Looking at the map, you'll find that during World War II, there was a country whose situation was very similar to that of the Douling Empire.

That's Poland.
