Douluo Continent: Refresh the entry, start with boundless good fortune!

One week later, at the Tian Dou Royal Palace.

The towering palace appeared even more oppressive under the gloomy sky.

"Have you heard the news lately? Prince Xuexing sold most of our royal family's assets to the Divine Dragon Sect?"

Several servants who were serving outside the Emperor's palace on a snowy night gathered outside the door and whispered among themselves.

"What? Didn't we say it was a joint venture? When did you say it was being sold?"

Another servant, looking puzzled, couldn't help but interject.

"Hey, what do you guys know? It was clearly given to the Divine Dragon Sect for management."

An older servant shook his head slightly.

"You don't know that the Divine Dragon Sect now monopolizes almost every industry in the entire empire."

"Prince Xuexing did this because he wanted to get the Divine Dragon Sect to accept his offer, and then use this favor to curry favor with the Divine Dragon Sect."

A thin servant, his eyes darting around, whispered a guess.

Meanwhile, inside the palace...

With a loud bang, Emperor Xueye once again slammed the teacup in his hand onto the ground.

The teacup shattered into pieces instantly, and tea splashed everywhere.

"Xue Xing, look what you've done! What does the Divine Dragon Sect mean by this?"

"Now I've ordered the forced return of the former royal property, but it all belongs to the Lin family, and none of them are obeying orders."

Emperor Xueye, his eyes wide with anger, stared intently at Xuexing, his facial muscles twitching slightly with rage, and he shouted sternly.

"Brother, I never expected Lin Feng to treat us like this."

Xuexing looked at Xueye innocently, spreading her hands with a helpless expression on her face.

"Furthermore, didn't you tacitly agree to handing over the assets to the Divine Dragon Sect for management back then?"

As Xue Xing spoke, she secretly observed Emperor Xue Ye's expression, inwardly groaning.

He had only intended to act in the interests of the royal family, but who would have thought that Lin Feng would pull such a stunt?

"You dare talk back?"

Emperor Xueye was so angry that he was blowing his beard and glaring, his chest heaving violently, and he raised his hand to hit Xuexing.

"Hey, Your Majesty, I have an idea."

Xue Xing hurriedly raised her hand, a sly look on her face, and looked at Emperor Xue Ye.

"Um?"

When Emperor Xueye heard Xuexing say this, he was also drawn in by his words and lowered his hand again.

"Now that things have come to this, what other options do you have?"

"The money the Divine Dragon Sect has given us is enough to sustain us for three years."

"Why don't we take this opportunity to bring the Divine Dragon Sect under the control of the royal family?"

Xue Xing raised her eyes, a hint of ruthlessness in them, and said.

Upon hearing these words, Xueye fell silent for a moment.

Bringing the Divine Dragon Sect under the royal family's control was something he had always wanted to do.

Even now, the titled Douluo Dugu Bo is the father-in-law of Lin Feng, the sect leader of the Divine Dragon Sect.

But their Heavenly Dou royal family has hundreds of thousands of soldiers; how many could he possibly hold off by himself?

Once the Divine Dragon Sect is brought under the control of the royal family, they will have everything they want.

"Xuexing, I'm leaving this matter to you!"

After a period of deep thought, Emperor Xueye slowly spoke.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Having received consent, Xuexing immediately stood up, bowed, and echoed her agreement.

A month later, Tian Dou arrived at the border.

The sky over the border was gloomy, and the thick clouds gave one a feeling of being unable to breathe.

The cold wind howled, blowing through the dilapidated tents with a mournful sound.

"General Lin, by royal decree, your title of Heavenly General is hereby revoked today."

"Given the Lin family's generations of merit in guarding the frontier, Lin Ye is hereby ordered to return to his fiefdom to live out his remaining years."

A messenger dressed in royal attire, with a stern expression, held a bright yellow order and announced in a cold voice.

"What? Why would they suddenly remove General Lin from his post?"

"Yeah, why should we?"

"General Lin has been stationed at the border for many years, making great contributions to the Heavenly Dou Empire. The royal family just lifted the ban with a single word?"

Upon hearing the order, Lin Ye's subordinates gathered around, their faces filled with anger and confusion, chattering amongst themselves.

"What, are you trying to disobey military orders?"

Upon hearing this, the royal family member holding the transfer order immediately darkened his face, glared at the man, and shouted sternly.

"Alright, shut up, all of you."

Lin Ye's face was calm at this moment, but his eyes revealed a hint of loneliness.

"A soldier's duty is to obey."

"Go back and report, I will return immediately."

Slowly raising his hand, Lin Ye took off the general's sword, a symbol of his status, from his waist, held it with both hands, and handed it to the messenger.

At that moment, his eyes inadvertently became moist.

When he was at home, his son Lin Feng had already foreseen that he would soon lose the royal family's favor.

At that time, he scoffed at Lin Feng's words and did not believe them at all.

And now, things are exactly as Xiao Feng said.

The Lin family has guarded the borders for generations, fighting bloody battles and making outstanding contributions to the Tiandou Empire.

Now, due to the royal family's suspicion and the ulterior motives of some people, they have come to this end.

"Sigh, it's time to go home and spend time with my children now that I'm getting old!"

After a sigh of regret, Lin Ye turned around and looked at the battlefield where he had once shed his blood, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

Then, with heavy steps, he slowly walked away.

Meanwhile, inside the Heavenly Dou Royal Family.

A secret organization's medical department was thus established.

Inside a spacious room, various bottles and jars and exotic herbs were displayed, and a rich medicinal aroma filled the air.

"Listen up, all of you."

"At Prince Xuexing's request, you must quickly prepare an antidote to alleviate the venom of the Jade Serpent."

A thin, middle-aged man with sinister eyes stood in the center of the room, his hands behind his back, coldly surveying the crowd as he spoke.

A month later.

Inside the Prince's Mansion, the courtyards are deep and secluded, with artificial hills and flowing water.

"Your Highness, General Lin Ye from the border is already on his way back."

A trusted aide hurriedly entered the main hall and reported to Prince Xuexing.

"Uh-huh."

Xuexing waved her hand, put down the documents she was working on, and looked calmly into the distance.

This time, our opponent is the Divine Dragon Sect, so we must be fully prepared.

He now controls the royal forces, and his men are secretly preparing an antidote for Dugu Bo's snake venom.

Although Dugu Bo's snake venom was formidable, the Heavenly Dou Empire was not lacking in unconventional talents.

The previously established medical department secretly dispatched many people in just over a month to recruit healing-type Soul Masters and physicians proficient in herbs to the royal family.

Even Ye Lingling's grandfather, Ye Nantian, was found by the royal family and brought to the palace.

With his Nine Hearts Begonia Martial Soul, dealing with Dugu Bo would be a piece of cake.

However, the abilities of healing-type Soul Masters are still limited. Once the great battle begins, there will definitely be quite a few people who die from injuries or poisoning.

For now, let's wait for them to develop an antidote to alleviate the toxins.

As for the border, Lin Ye's trusted confidants must be replaced as soon as possible, and no hidden dangers should be left behind.

"Someone, prepare the carriage."

"Depart for the border immediately."

Thinking of this, Prince Xuexing gave an order to his waiting confidants. (End of Chapter)
