The Ultimate Fire Master of Avatar

Chapter 185 What happened this year? He was actually the mastermind behind it all!

In short, Azura's propaganda attack made the White Lotus Cult a universally condemned entity, and the entire organization subsequently disintegrated.

As elders of the White Lotus Cult, they were also targeted. Zhengzheng, who was originally one of the leaders of the resistance, was ostracized by the resistance, and Kupa was captured by the Arctic Water People. However, they all escaped, and only Bumi was captured.

However, it is said that Bumi went to prison voluntarily without any resistance. This action did salvage some of the reputation of the White Lotus Sect after the Fire Kingdom captured Omashu City, but it was only a drop in the ocean.

Furthermore, this incident not only dealt a heavy blow to the White Lotus Sect, but also plunged the Tu Qiang Kingdom and the Arctic Water Good Tribe into a vortex of suspicion, which gave Azura an opportunity to order his army to launch a large-scale invasion.

"I had heard before that Azura was exceptionally intelligent and resourceful, and she certainly lived up to her reputation. Her abilities probably far surpass those of her father, Aozai."

Bi'an sighed.

"Anyway, she's a cunning and treacherous little girl who's hard to deal with."

Cooper shook his head, then looked at Kahn and said bluntly:

"You little rascal, you really screwed us over."

The newcomers, including An Ang, were a little confused by Cooper's words, but Kahn knew what Cooper meant.

If he hadn't revealed too much information about the White Lotus Sect to Azura, they wouldn't have ended up like this. He couldn't refute that, and even he himself thought so, so he could only smile bitterly.

At that moment, he recalled what Azura had said to him in the royal palace that day—

"Do you really think those people from the White Lotus Cult are simply here to help? Bumi, Cooper, Zhengzheng—don't they have their own interests at stake? Don't they have their own ulterior motives?"

He really hadn't thought about those things.

His only goal was to defeat Ao Zai, so the White Lotus Cult was a partner with shared interests for him. Also, because Ai Luo was an elder of the White Lotus Cult, he naturally had a favorable impression of the White Lotus Cult.

As for whether the White Lotus Sect had other motives, to be honest, he didn't care much.

However, in Azura's eyes, who wanted to ascend to the throne and conquer the world, the existence of the White Lotus Cult was more of a disadvantage than an advantage. Therefore, she destroyed it without hesitation after discovering that the White Lotus Cult had no further use.

But given the current situation, what choice should he make?

What will she choose?

"It can't be entirely Kahn's fault; part of it was due to my misjudgment."

The meeting was still ongoing. After speaking up in defense of Kahn, Airo continued:

"Getting back to the main topic, we'll now talk about how Azura conquered the world."

"Besides our defeat and the demoralization within various countries that I just mentioned, I think the more important point is that she made a very bold decision—"

The colonists were conscripted into the army, and colonists were permitted to serve as generals.

At this point, a hint of amazement and emotion couldn't help but show in Ai Luo's tone.

Colonies are a unique entity in the Fire Nation as well.

The laws of the Flaming Kingdom clearly stipulate that colonies are also Flaming Kingdom territory, and colonists are also Flaming Kingdom citizens, with no difference in rights and obligations.

But it's just a rule.

In reality, from the native inhabitants of the Fire Kingdom to the vast majority of noble officials, and even the Fire King himself, the attitude towards the colonies and the colonists remained one of contempt, and the Earth Masters born in the colonies suffered even more discrimination.

People from colonial backgrounds can only be cannon fodder at the bottom of the army, with no chance of promotion. Even firemasters can only serve as squad leaders at most, and no matter how great their achievements, they can never become generals.

Furthermore, magistrates within the colonies were forbidden from joining the army, as many generals discriminated against them, believing they might defect at any time.

If Kahn knew what Elo was thinking at this moment, he would definitely agree. After all, even his friend Corrie, as the daughter of the governor, had to hide her identity as a Clay Master when she came to study in the capital of the Fire Kingdom.

In fact, Aero himself had proposed adding the Earth Masters from the colonies to the army, because the Earth Masters' abilities could undoubtedly play a huge role in attacking and defending cities.

If he had had a squad of Earthshakers under his command when he attacked Everlasting City, the world would have been under the control of the Fire Nation long ago, and Azura would have had nothing to do with it. His life trajectory would not have turned out this way.

However, when he put forward this proposal, he was met with strong opposition from everyone, including his confidants.

In the end, he had no choice but to give up.

It's worth noting that his proposal only included allowing the Masterminds to join the army, and he didn't even consider having people from the colonies serve as generals, yet it already met with such strong opposition. He really couldn't imagine how Azura managed to push these two decrees through.

He could only sigh, realizing that he was indeed far inferior to Azura in this respect.

Kahn listened with a sigh, because he knew how much resistance Azura would face in implementing these two laws, but she still managed to do it.

Another point of interest is that these two laws were actually introduced by Azura, since when it comes to discrimination, no one understands it better than Azura.

She looks down on everyone except herself.

Oh, and we also need to get rid of him.

But the next moment, Kahn's expression suddenly froze; he remembered something:

That was after Kori helped them find clues about Ershu's whereabouts hidden in the palace's secret passage. He remembered Azura saying something thoughtfully—

"I didn't expect the Earth Master to be so useful."

Is it because of this incident that Azura took the existence of the Earth Master to heart?

No, really?

Kahn felt inexplicably guilty.

If that's really the case, then wouldn't he have become one of the driving forces behind it?

Speaking of which, the methods Azula used to launch a propaganda attack against the White Lotus Sect seem to be something he had mentioned to Azula when he was just idly bragging.

No way?!

Kahn was on the verge of tears.

He was just bragging, I didn't expect Azura to actually do it!

Thinking about this, Kahn felt increasingly guilty. He had originally thought that Azura had grown into the Great Demon King on her own, but suddenly he discovered that Azura was the real mastermind behind it all?!

Oh no, this is all happening behind the scenes now.

"What's wrong with you?"

Suddenly noticing that Kahn's expression was a little off, Airo asked with concern.

"It's nothing."

Kahn forced a smile and decided to bury this secret deep in his heart, as if it didn't exist.

Ai Luo gave him a somewhat suspicious look before continuing her story.

But there's not much more to say after that.

Regardless of how Azura successfully implemented those two decrees, after the Earth Master joined the army, the Fire Nation's army was like a tiger with wings, advancing triumphantly and having no equal in the face of any enemy.

Originally, Yonggu City was intended to serve as the last line of defense for the Tuqiang Kingdom, but to everyone's surprise, shortly after the White Lotus Rebellion broke out, internal strife erupted within Yonggu City.

Changfeng, the prime minister of Yonggu City, betrayed the kingdom and led the Imperial Guards under Dai Li to capture the King of Tuqiang. He then offered Yonggu City to the Huolie Kingdom.

In exchange, Changfeng became the lord of Yonggu City under the rule of the Fire Blaze Kingdom.

And so Azura conquered Everlasting City without losing a single soldier, and successfully conquered the world.

Immediately afterwards, she began a worldwide manhunt for Kahn and cracked down on the remaining forces of the White Lotus Cult, forcing them to retreat and eventually hide here.

This is what happened in the world during the year that Kahn disappeared.

The Flash, emmm, it's okay for fans, but for casual viewers it's just a passable popcorn movie, watchable or not.

Although the Super Girls' appearances don't match the original characters, they're really beautiful! I'm definitely getting my new waifu!
