Douluo Continent: Martial Soul - Dragon Pattern Staff, Inherited from the Azure Dragon of the East

Chapter 226 The world is not allowed to have any forces other than 'nations'?!

The Spirit Hall sent troops to provide support, but they were blocked by a mysterious army of men in black. In the ensuing battle, the Spirit Hall forces were completely wiped out.

The Spirit Hall is quite powerful in this regard, so the Li family has secretly dispatched a large army to destroy the Spirit Hall's branch offices outside the region, thereby weakening the Spirit Hall's overall strength.

The Li family's goal was to weaken the Spirit Hall's external strength to a level comparable to that of other forces.

With the intervention of the Li family, it was also successful.

Within the original territory of the Heavenly Dou Empire, those who controlled the cities declared independence and became small countries.

The Heavenly Dou Empire now controls only Heavenly Dou City; it has lost control of all the other cities.

The underlings all started disobeying orders.

The Heavenly Dou Empire exists in name only.

Now it has become the Heavenly Dou Kingdom, guarding its own little corner of the land.

All troops were withdrawn, and large-scale construction of the Great Wall was undertaken to defend against foreign enemies.

The same applies to the Star Luo Empire.

A once vast empire has been reduced to the Star Luo Kingdom, which now only occupies its most prosperous and powerful cities and maintains its own military power.

On the continent, there are no longer empires, only small countries.

The Li family still feels that the number of fragmented small countries is not enough, and they continue to cause them to split apart and cause wars to break out between these countries.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Li family seized the opportunity to use powerful means to acquire and control everything that these countries needed for daily life.

This is the Li family's biggest conspiracy, and the whole world has been kept in the dark.

Countless refugees fled, some dying and others escaping.

The Li family secretly recruited these people, fed them pills, controlled their minds, and turned them into puppets of the Li family.

Then give them power, disperse them, and let them go out and cause trouble.

The more chaotic the world becomes, the happier the Li family is.

Eight Treasures Glazed Tile School.

The entire sect was now surrounded by a powerful force.

However, no one died inside.

The mission assigned to the Eastern Azure Dragon Sect was to keep these people trapped in place, preventing them from leaving to rescue the Heavenly Dou Empire.

The plan is now complete.

Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong were very anxious and fought back, but they were suppressed by Flander, Liu Erlong, and others.

Several battles at the Title Douluo level had already taken place during this period, but Ning Fengzhi and his two companions still ended in defeat.

The strength of the Eastern Azure Dragon Sect is terrifying.

"What exactly is your purpose?"

Inside the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong confronted Flander, Liu Erlong, and others.

The Eastern Azure Dragon Sect, which they had never heard of before, now possessed such terrifying combat power, which truly shocked and terrified them.

Such an unknown existence is hidden on the mainland!

The waters of this continent are deeper than they imagined!

And this war was orchestrated by a huge, unseen force!

"I'll say it again, we've received orders from above to keep you in check and prevent you from going out to support the Heavenly Dou Royal Family," Flander said calmly.

Li Fei considered that Ning Rongrong was his woman, so he did not destroy or kill the people of the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School.

The most severe punishment for those who resist is to knock them unconscious and lock them up.

If it weren't for Ning Rongrong, the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School would have met a very tragic end.

"We can leave at any time as long as you promise not to interfere with the Heaven Dou Royal Family."

"However, judging by the time, things outside are about to reach the expected stage."

Flanders said calmly.

"What do you mean?"

"What exactly are you planning to do to the outside world?!"

Ning Fengzhi questioned.

"To split the empire, to make the world devoid of empires, to allow countless forces to become independent small states, and to make the world more diverse and colorful."

"The Star Luo Empire and the Heaven Dou Empire have existed and ruled for too long, so we want to see a different world."

"That's our goal."

Flanders said calmly.

"You have quite the ambition to split the empire!" Ning Fengzhi and the other two's pupils shrank, and their expressions changed drastically.

They couldn't control what happened to the Star Luo Empire.

However, the interests of the Heavenly Dou Empire and its people are very significant.

If the Heavenly Dou Empire were to split into countless small countries, it would not be good news for them.

Given the immense resistance, it's practically impossible to bring those smaller nations back together.

"We have asked me to deliver a message to you from above."

"Would you like to listen?"

Flanders said calmly.

"What did you say?"

Unable to defeat them in a fight, Ning Fengzhi and the other two simply sat down and waited for the outcome.

The power disparity between the two sides is significant, and naturally, the sect will prioritize protecting its own sect over the empire.

These people possess such terrifying strength that they could easily launch a devastating attack on the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School, yet they chose not to.

Although their path forward was blocked, no disciples in the sect died, and very few were seriously injured.

This shows that the other party does not want to completely break ties with the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School.

So everything is negotiable.

Ning Fengzhi was originally a businessman.

The Heavenly Dou Empire is gone, but we can always support another one in the future.

Let's focus on stabilizing our core business first.

"My superiors instructed me to tell you that the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School cannot be a sect. You need to establish your own small country and change the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School into the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Kingdom. You will be the ruler of the kingdom, not the sect leader."

"Our plans and blueprints for the future are already in place. The goal is to eliminate sects, factions, and other forces from the entire continent, leaving only nations."

"So it's not just you, but also the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the Clear Sky Clan, the Lower Four Clans, and other sects and forces. We will intervene and persuade them to establish their own kingdoms and abolish the sect system that exists outside of the kingdoms."

Flanders began to speak while sipping his tea.

"You want to overturn the world's order and create countless nations. Aren't you afraid of having too big an appetite and dying from overeating?" Ning Fengzhi and the other two were shocked and said in a deep voice.

"We have enough power above us to suppress everything, and no one in the world, including the Spirit Hall, can cause any trouble."

"Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School, do you accept our conditions?"

"Once the conditions are accepted and the contract is signed, we will withdraw immediately."

"Moreover, I know that you have always wanted to change the flaws of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. The Pill Pavilion has not produced any new pills yet, but unfortunately, our superiors have developed a pill that can evolve the Eight Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda."

"We can sell it to you if you agree."

"Furthermore, we can supply pills that can evolve Seven Treasures into Eight Treasures and Eight Treasures into Nine Treasures on a long-term basis. Think about it yourselves. If you miss this shop, there won't be another one. We have monopolized the materials, and the Pill Pavilion will never be able to refine them."

Flander began to speak.

He's not going to be foolish enough to give it away for free.

If you can make money, you'd be a fool not to.

Ning Fengzhi, who was still trying to struggle, was greatly shocked after hearing these words.

Their lifeline was in their hands.

"You can also make medicine?" Ning Fengzhi was shocked.

"Naturally, alchemy is not too difficult."

"The power behind us is far greater than you can imagine."

Flanders said calmly.

"If you've thought it through, then sign this contract and leave your thumbprint in blood."

A contract fell into Ning Fengzhi's hands.
