Ghost Douluo stood tall and straight, showing no sign of panic in the face of Dai Hao's intimidating gaze, his voice low and hoarse.
"This was given to you by the Elder of the Spirit Hall. How you do it is entirely up to you. The Spirit Hall is just giving you a reminder."
Dai Hao frowned, pondering the purpose of the Spirit Hall.
"Your Majesty, His Highness Ghost Douluo has come from afar. I think we should let him go and rest first, and let the servants take good care of him."
Duke Youming stepped out from among the courtiers and gave Dai Hao a reminder.
Upon hearing this, Dai Hao nodded slightly and said, "Someone, take Ghost Douluo Mianlu away to rest properly, and don't neglect him!"
"No need, Your Majesty. I have other matters to attend to, so I won't stay any longer."
Ghost Douluo waved his hand, refusing Dai Hao's arrangement.
"In that case, I shall see Your Majesty off."
Dai Hao didn't try to stop him. In fact, he was more eager for the other party to leave. As long as there were more experts from the Spirit Hall around him, the risk of his secret with the evil spirit master being exposed would increase.
"No need. I hope Your Majesty will take the elder's reminder to heart."
After saying that, Ghost Douluo disappeared from the spot, turning into a ghostly shadow and leaving the Star Luo Imperial Palace.
"Your Majesty, we wonder what the Elder of the Spirit Hall said in his letter. Could you please tell us so that we may share your burden?"
After Ghost Douluo left, Duke Youming respectfully asked.
"Show it to the Duke of the Underworld."
"Yes."
Dai Hao raised his hand, and the eunuch beside him immediately stepped forward respectfully, took the envelope with both hands, walked down the steps, and handed the envelope to Duke Youming.
Duke Youming took the document, examined it carefully, and suddenly chuckled, "This elder of the Judgment is truly concerned about the common people."
"Your Grace, this..."
"Take them all and have a look."
After receiving Dai Hao's approval, Duke Youming handed the envelope to the ministers who were eagerly awaiting his arrival.
After everyone saw it, they all shook their heads and laughed.
"Haha, still so young. It's just a snowfall, yet they claim there's famine and plague. How absurd!"
"Yes, yes, I heard that the Spirit Hall's adjudication elder is only in his early twenties. What could he possibly know?"
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this matter may not be an exaggeration. We should at least inform the duchies under our empire so that they can stockpile more supplies to cope with unforeseen circumstances."
"Haha, Lord Zhang, how can you believe such absurd remarks? In previous years, it snowed heavily, but we didn't see any famine or plague."
In the imperial court, everyone had their own opinions. Although a few suggested taking some precautions, most people dismissed the idea.
"Your Majesty, this matter still requires your decision."
Duke Youming left the final decision to Dai Hao.
Upon hearing this, the few ministers who had suggested taking precautions immediately looked at Dai Hao, their eyes filled with anticipation.
Dai Hao smiled and said, "My Star Luo Empire is rich and powerful, we have nothing to fear from these things, there's no need to pay attention to them."
"Your Majesty, this matter concerns the stability of the nation. I urge you to reconsider!"
Lord Zhang was a veteran official and was quite sensitive to these matters. Seeing that Dai Hao didn't take the matter seriously at all, he immediately disregarded the crime of disobeying the officials, stepped out of the ranks, and knelt down to remonstrate.
"Your Majesty, although our Star Luo Empire is rich and powerful, it is because our predecessors loved their people like their own children and were cautious in everything they did. Your Majesty, this concerns the common people, so Your Majesty should make more preparations. Even if the elders of the Spirit Hall are exaggerating, we will not lose anything by making more preparations."
"Lord Zhang, are you questioning His Majesty?"
"You must understand what it means to say that all previous emperors were wise rulers. Are you implying that His Majesty is not wise?"
An obese minister stepped forward and immediately began to put a hat on Lord Zhang.
“Your Majesty, that’s not what I meant.” Minister Zhang pressed his head to the ground and continued, “What I meant was that Your Majesty should make preparations, firstly to guard against unforeseen circumstances, and secondly, if nothing happens, to replenish the national treasury.”
Upon hearing this, Dai Hao remained silent, and the fat man immediately took over the conversation again.
"Lord Zhang, you readily believe the words of a mere youth from the Spirit Hall, yet you oppose His Majesty's words. What are your true intentions?"
"Could it be that Lord Zhang received some benefits from the Spirit Hall?"
"Hmph! Lord Li, are you trying to slander me? We, as your subjects, are here to constantly remind His Majesty that the people should be the foundation of the nation, not someone like you who only knows how to curry favor and slander loyal ministers!"
Lord Zhang raised his head and looked at the fat man with icy eyes.
"Commoners, Lord Zhang, have you forgotten that since the founding of my Star Luo Empire, we have always relied on Soul Masters, not those lowly people you speak of?"
"You bastard! It's true that Soul Masters are the pillars of the Star Luo Empire, but without the people, can the empire still be an empire?"
"Why can't it be?"
"Enough! This matter need not be discussed further. That's all. Court is adjourned!"
Seeing that the two were about to start fighting, Dai Hao immediately slapped the armrest, shouted, stood up, and left without looking back, ignoring Lord Zhang's calls.
"Lord Zhang, you have angered His Majesty. You must be careful when you go out in the future."
"Hmph! I don't need your reminder, His Majesty is not that kind of person!"
Lord Zhang gave the fat man a cold look, waved his sleeve, and walked out of the court.
The fat man sneered, waved his sleeve, and strode away.
Several days later, Lord Zhang died suddenly at home.
A few days later, the fat man was stabbed to death in the street by an unknown Soul Emperor.
In contrast to the Star Luo Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire was different.
The Heaven Dou Dynasty, controlled by the Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, naturally reacted.
However, although the decree was issued, the officials in charge in various places only went through the motions and even took the opportunity to increase taxes.
For a time, public resentment was boiling over in various places.
However, due to the immense power of the Soul Masters and the fact that everyone had a stutter, no one dared to do anything and could only swallow their anger.
The heavy snow lasted for more than a month before finally stopping, turning the entire continent into a world of ice and snow.
The temperature reached an extremely low level. Forget about waiting for next year, a large number of people froze to death in just this one winter.
Fights broke out frequently in various places, with people vying for his family's grain and firewood.
After arriving in Wuhun City, Gu Han kept Old Master Gu there. The old man didn't want to disturb him and Bibi Dong, so Gu Han arranged a private courtyard for him.
With Gu Han's help, Qian Renxue's foundation has also basically reached a perfect level.
The little girl grew up eating whale glue, and her physique was stronger than that of ordinary soul masters, so her first and second soul rings were at the thousand-year level.
Moreover, the energy she had accumulated before, along with the energy from the two thousand-year soul rings, also helped her reach level 30.
They obtained another soul ring that was nearly ten thousand years old.
Of course, the choice of soul beasts is still the best soul beasts of the Angel lineage over the past ten thousand years, only they are a bit older.
This is the difference between a genius and an ordinary genius. Qian Renxue awakened at level 20, and after absorbing the soul ring, she reached level 30, a very high starting point.
Even those with innate full soul power can't envy this. If you cultivate diligently, you might become a Title Douluo even earlier than Gu Han and Bibi Dong.
Chapter 285 Yu Xiaogang: The Clan Member Jitian's Magical Power is Boundless
Inside the City of Slaughter, Yu Xiaogang had already undergone a complete transformation. With the help of cultivating with evil spirits, his cultivation level had improved rapidly, and he had now reached the Soul Emperor level.
Now, Yu Xiaogang is no longer afraid of this environment. On the contrary, he likes it very much because he doesn't have to worry about the Spirit Hall here and can kill people and cultivate at will.
He was also different from others; he had protection and would not be killed.
"No, it's too slow, still too slow."
Yu Xiaogang felt that his cultivation was still too slow. If this continued, when would he be able to trample Gu Han and Bibi Dong under his feet, and when would he be able to stand at the pinnacle of the continent?
"Oh right, I remember there's a way to improve your cultivation level faster."
Yu Xiaogang recalled a cultivation method of evil soul masters that he had accidentally seen before. It was that the blood of those connected by blood was more compatible with one's own, and absorbing the blood of one of them was equivalent to ten times, or even a hundred times, the blood of others.
What? Those are your own people?
No, they are not qualified. They only bring pain to themselves and despise themselves. What right do such people have to be members of their own people?
Yu Xiaogang has an advantage that most people don't have: he's shameless enough. His skin is thicker than the ground. He can always shift all the blame for his own problems onto others. He never thinks he's wrong and he's always right.
This kind of person is very unlikable, but he himself is completely unaware of it, and only feels that he is not wrong, and that others are the ones who are wrong.
"However, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family still has some experts. With my own strength, I'm afraid I can't fight them, and I'll probably end up being hunted down by my father."
Are we just going to give up like this?
No, I can't give up. How can I, Yu Xiaogang, give up a chance to become stronger?
Once I become the strongest on the continent, I believe my father will no longer blame me.
I'm doing this so I can get stronger faster. Once I absorb enough of my clan's blood to become a Title Douluo, I can find a woman to reproduce with, and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan won't be wiped out because I'll still be alive.
Having thought this through, Yu Xiaogang made up his mind. He turned around and went to the current Holy Temple, where he found the various Holy Douluo and told them his decision.
Upon hearing this, the nine titled Douluo raised their eyebrows. They hadn't expected this kid to be so ruthless, actually setting his sights on his own clansmen and intending to use them to improve his own cultivation.
"Hahaha, good, good, good."
The leader of the Hell Douluos laughed heartily, stepped forward, patted Yu Xiaogang on the shoulder, looked at him with appreciation, and said with a smile, "This is how a cultivator of our Holy Sect should be. I'll help you with this favor."
Yu Xiaogang was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Thank you for your kindness, Master!"
Skeleton Douluo stepped forward and said, "My lord, we have only recently set up a scheme to deceive the Spirit Hall. Is it too risky to rashly destroy a sect, especially one of the three upper sects?"
"That's true, but there's no need to worry too much. The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan does have members who have gone out. We just need to capture those who have gone out. After a while, their clan leader will definitely check the situation. As long as they come out, we can kill them without them knowing!"
Hell Douluo's eyes were sinister and vicious. The exit they left was covered up by that person's power, so the Spirit Hall would never be able to find it.
That place was also the tomb he prepared for the leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan.
Since this kid is going to rely on the blood of his clansmen to cultivate, how can we not catch this big fish?
Yu Xiaogang hesitated for a moment, but the desire to become stronger quickly overshadowed his hesitation. His father had said he would do everything he could to make him stronger, and now that there was a way, he believed his father wouldn't refuse, he definitely wouldn't!
Yu Xiaogang's eyes were bloodshot. He had long been blinded by bloodlust in the killing city, and had become twisted, brutal, crazy, and greedy. In the free world he pursued, all humanity had been lost.
