Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Saint Master, Twelve Talismans Chaotic the Continent

Chapter 78 I am not very talented

……

"What exactly do you want?" Tang Yuehua asked, puzzled.

She really couldn't understand what benefit Nan Feng would gain from doing all this.

"So that I can see a more distant future in my lifetime," Nan Feng said.

"I want to see where this world is headed, but I can't wait that long, so I can only do my best to speed things up."

"But doing this will attract countless resentments," Tang Yuehua said.

Change means the collapse of the old order. The outcome of change may be good, but the process is definitely painful!

"I don't care," Nan Feng shrugged.

"Whether they resent me or respect me, it doesn't affect me at all. All I care about is getting what I want."

"Alright, enough of that, I should get down to business."

Tang Yuehua was a little nervous. "What?"

"Help me summon the nobles of the Heaven Dou Empire to Heaven Dou City. I want to have a heart-to-heart talk with them," Nan Feng said.

Tang Yuehua wielded considerable influence within the aristocratic circles of the Heaven Dou Empire, not only because of the Haotian Sect, but also because of her own social skills. Yuexuan was an institution dedicated to teaching etiquette and music, and the nobles who graduated from there respected Tang Yuehua, not the Haotian Sect.

"Don't refuse. I'm just asking you to do it, not forcing you to do it," Nan Feng said.

"Whether you invite them or not is your business, whether they come or not is their business. You just need to do your own thing."

"Also, please help me contact the four major single-attribute families and ask them to come over as well."

"What do you want to do?" Tang Yuehua asked.

"Have a heart-to-heart talk with the nobles. As for the four sects with single attributes, I was the strategic commander in that war, and I should learn about my grudges with them," Nan Feng said.

Tang Yuehua hesitated. "I can help you, nobleman, but I don't have the ability to form four sects with a single attribute."

"I told you, all you need to do is do it. Whether they come or not is their own business," Nan Feng said.

"What if they don't come?" Tang Yuehua asked nervously.

"If they don't want to come, they don't have to come. Can I force them?" Nan Feng said.

"At worst, I'll go there in person."

As the old saying goes, if the mountain won't come to me, I'll go to the mountain.

……

Qibaozhai.

"Elder Nanfeng, could you please discuss this with me before you speak?"

Ning Fengzhi looked at Nan Feng, who had just entered the room, picked up Ning Rongrong, and sat down to play with toys, with a pained expression.

Now, news has come from all the nobles of the Heaven Dou Empire, asking him what he means, whether he wants to start a war, or whether he is colluding with the Spirit Hall.

How could they possibly join forces with the Spirit Hall to carry out that kind of reform?

"What are you discussing?" Nan Feng asked, puzzled.

"Those rules you mentioned at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy," Ning Fengzhi said.

"How could you do something so big without saying a word? Even if you want to make changes, you should do it step by step. There's no need to use such radical methods. You could have taken it slowly."

The Heavenly Dou Empire has long suffered from deep-seated problems and cannot be dealt with rashly, otherwise this already tottering empire will collapse in an instant!

If you can only slowly boil a frog in water, you should at least set up the stage first and then invite these nobles onto the table, instead of kicking them up directly!

"It's too slow," Nan Feng said.

"I know you have a way to change the current state of the Heaven Dou Empire, but it's too slow."

"Your method will take at least twenty years to begin to show results."

Ning Fengzhi's eye twitched. "But my method is reliable."

"My method is quick," Nan Feng said.

"But this is too dangerous," Ning Fengzhi said.

"You don't understand the situation in the Heaven Dou Empire. Those regulations do not motivate the nobles at all; on the contrary, they make them more and more unstable."

"I know, that's why I'm going to make an example of someone," Nan Feng said.

Soul Masters are indeed strong, but not to an insane degree. Moreover, powerful Soul Masters almost always have families to support, so they can't possibly lower themselves to engage in assassinations. Reputation is a very important thing.

Once your reputation is ruined, it's irreparable.

Moreover, once the war starts, no one will stand there like an idiot waiting to be killed. If there's even the slightest hint of trouble, they'll disappear without a trace.

Anyone who has fought in a war knows that the most difficult part of a decapitation strike is not getting in, but finding the location of the "head".

"To make an example of someone?" Ning Fengzhi was taken aback.

"Elder Nanfeng, please think twice. If this causes a riot in the Heaven Dou Empire, it will lead to widespread suffering and death."

Why doesn't Xueye dare to initiate reforms on his own?

What I fear most is that if he makes a move, all the people below will rebel!

If one person rebels, everyone else will follow suit in no time!

"No," Nan Feng said.

"I can suppress these things."

Ning Fengzhi's eye twitched. "Elder Nanfeng, you have to understand that wars between Soul Masters are different from wars between armies. Title Douluos are not invincible. They get tired and they die."

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"I know." Nan Feng put Ning Rongrong aside, took out a small jade bottle, and handed it to Ning Fengzhi.

"But some things are different."

Ning Fengzhi nervously took the jade bottle and tentatively opened it.

However, Ning Fengzhi's expression froze halfway through peeling off the cap. He quickly put the cap back on the bottle and placed it back on the table.

Poison! Extremely poisonous!!

"Elder Nanfeng, it seems that Poison Douluo... hasn't joined the Spirit Hall, has he?" Ning Fengzhi had already thought of Nanfeng's plan.

The power of a Title Douluo is indeed formidable, but it's practically useless against a sheer number of opponents.

But poison is different!

Numbers are meaningless when it comes to something like poison!

"I didn't say that Dugu Bo should do it," Nan Feng said.

"I am not talented, but I have plenty of strength and means."

"Resistance and war are merely born from the belief that there is still a glimmer of hope, but what if there is no hope at all?"

Nan Feng picked up the jade bottle. "Guess how many people this little bit of poison could kill?"

Ning Fengzhi's expression stiffened. "I don't know."

"I don't know either," Nan Feng smiled.

"But perhaps we can test it next."

"..."

"Elder Nanfeng, is it really necessary to use this method?" Ning Fengzhi asked.

"Sect Leader Ning, I know what kind of person you are. Although merchants are known for their profit-driven nature, you, as a merchant, still have some conscience. However, some things cannot be delayed," Nan Feng said.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is one of the few soul masters with a conscience, because commerce is the prototype of capital. The two great empires, the Spirit Hall, and other sects are all purely feudal landlords.

The two great empires promoted the progress of social order in the Douluo Continent, while the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School promoted the development of the basic economy.

The commercial network of Douluo Continent was built entirely by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. After all, they were support-type Soul Masters and did not have the power to fight and kill. If they wanted to develop and grow, they naturally had to find another way.

When it comes to doing business, stability is paramount. Would you rather do business with someone who has a Seven Treasures Pagoda and at most swindles you out of a little money, or with someone who carries a hammer, has claws, or even a holy sword and could kill you at the slightest provocation?

"But your methods are too radical," Ning Fengzhi sighed.

Drastic reforms do indeed yield quick results, but behind these quick results lies a bloodbath.

When nobles die, it's not just nobles who die.

If a mountain collapses, it will crush many people.

"That's why I brought you in too," Nan Feng said.

"I'll charge in and fight, you clean up the mess. Brother Ning, I'm just trusting in your abilities!"

Ning Fengzhi's eyes twitched violently; he was really about to unleash a torrent of curses.

How do you manage to say such shameless things with such confidence?
