Douluo Dragon King: Doumu's Blessing, I Am the Star Lord

Dare not to participate in the war?

Then they only have one way out—either be slaughtered by the Abyss or be purged by the Federation after the war.

Cao Dezhi's plan truly embodies ruthlessness, binding protons...

"Xingluo... still needs careful planning."

If a hardline approach is taken, Saint Dragon Douluo Enci will be a problem. The Federation will not and cannot show weakness; if Star Luo gives them a little encouragement, they'll really take advantage of it.

Qian Gu Xing Ci said, "I have a plan that can bring light back from this dark situation, but..."

“Speak freely,” Cao Dezhi said immediately. “There are only the three of us here, we can’t get out of this door.”

Zhang Huanyun nodded as well.

Qian Gu Xing Ci still looked uneasy, giving a heads-up, "It might be a bit rebellious."

“One thing at a time. Saying something doesn’t mean it has to be adopted,” Zhang Huanyun said firmly.

“I participated in the Star Luo Continent Youth Soul Master Competition, which gathered the top geniuses of the Star Luo Empire this generation.” Qian Gu Xing Ci recounted in detail, “Among them, the eight most outstanding people were known as the Eight Heavenly Kings of Monster Academy, and these eight people had one thing in common.”

Cao Dezhi and Zhang Huanyun have been stationed in the Endless Mountains for many years and have not paid much attention to the affairs of the Tang Sect and the Federation. The younger generation on the other continent is completely outside their knowledge.

"Because the Star Luo Emperor attempted to deepen ties with the Tang Sect and better nurture future generations,"

They are all disciples of the Tang Clan!

Chapter 195 Xingci vs. Cao Dezhi? Dongfeng vs. Zang Xin! (Happy Children's Day!)

The future pillars of the Star Luo Empire will all join the Tang Sect, and Cao Dezhi is now intentionally suppressing Star Luo, leaving a lot of room for maneuver.

Cao Dezhi pondered for a moment, then said, "If the Star Luo Emperor wants to issue an order from the Soul Fighting Hall to send them to the Blood God Legion in order to control the Star Luo Empire, then he is not stupid and will not send anyone over."

That would lead to those eight people betraying the Tang Sect, and according to the sect rules, the Tang Sect's secret techniques would have to be revoked. However, the Tang Sect's deployment in the Star Luo Continent is far from being able to fulfill the sect rules under the command of a Limit Douluo.

It will ultimately escalate into a decisive battle between the Tang Sect and the Star Luo Empire, returning to the starting point of a direct assault.

Regardless of the outcome of this battle, the authority of the Tang Clan's rules has been completely destroyed, and Cao Dezhi will not do anything meaningless that would jeopardize the Tang Clan's reputation.

Seeing the awkward silence, Zhang Huanyun eased the tension by saying, "Old Cao, Xingci was just suggesting an idea, don't take it to heart. Isn't Xingluo known for its martial spirit? I read in records that they have a custom..."

“Your Majesty, that’s just your conjecture, not my real suggestion.” Qian Gu Xing Ci shook his head, looked at Cao Dezhi, and said with a half-smile, “After all, this can’t really be considered a serious act of treason.”

"The reason why Xingluo will not follow Tangmen's orders is that they see Tangmen and the Empire as equals. Who would willingly obey the orders of another when they are of equal rank?"

But if the ruler commands the subject to die, the subject has no choice but to die.

There are differences even among monarchs.

In the mortal world, no one is more noble than an emperor or a Limit Douluo. Xingluo possesses both of these qualities, but only within the mortal realm.

The ancient star bids farewell, pointing a single finger to the sky.

There are gods watching over you from above!

Zhang Huanyun vaguely guessed something, "Gods of the divine realm? But the divine realm has disappeared."

"After the gods ascended to the divine realm, when have they ever descended to the mortal world in their true forms?" Qian Gu Xing Ci smiled slightly. "What we need has never been real gods, but merely a pretext. Besides, someone has already set an example for us!"

Cao Dezhi's pupils contracted, and he blurted out, "A divine oracle! Are you trying to fabricate a divine oracle to intimidate others?"

“That’s right, this isn’t exactly borrowing someone else’s power, since we don’t really need that power. It’s just that this way we can achieve the optimal solution.” Qian Gu Xing Ci nodded frankly. “It all depends on whether you can accept fabricating a divine decree that would allow the entire Douluo Star to unite against external enemies, and that it comes from the mouth of our beloved Sea God!”

There's nothing wrong with being sweet-talking. You can address a powerful person as "Your Majesty" or call the Sea God "Eternal Star" in front of the Tang Clan members without any psychological burden.

No wonder they say it's outrageous; this is trying to use their ancestors' reputation to their advantage!

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate... to use the name of a deity without permission?" Cao Dezhi seemed possessed by Zang Xin, appearing somewhat indecisive.

"The Sea God is perfect in every way, performs countless good deeds every day, and accumulates so much merit that the list in the merit book is probably so many pages long that he might not even notice it."

Besides, we're doing this for Douluo Star. The Sea God is also an outstanding graduate who came from here. Those who went out from Douluo Star are all fellow countrymen, and there's a senior-junior relationship between them. The plan is also to promote the Sea God's faith, so it's not a bad thing for Him.

After the return of the God Realm, the Sea God will be able to distinguish right from wrong. Our starting point was to protect Douluo Star, and the Sea God will even reward us. At the very least, our merits and demerits will cancel each other out.

After a series of manipulative tactics, Qian Gu Xing Ci's eyes instantly filled with tenderness as he asked his old flame to play for him!

He was silent for a moment, then stood up: "I'm going out to calm down and think things through."

Qian Gu Xing Ci also stood up: "Perfect timing, I also need to make a phone call."

On the east side, Qian Gu Xing Ci held a communicator and discussed the specific wording with Qian Gu Dong Feng on the other side. This idea was proposed by Qian Gu Xing Ci, but his experience was insufficient to support the specific arrangements. However, the actual implementation was decisively handed over to professionals. Qian Gu Dong Feng's understanding of human nature was unparalleled in the world!

"The precautions have already been taken; the fact that he didn't directly refuse means there's a chance." Qian Gu Dong Feng's voice was calm and experienced. "Next, let's also tie the Spirit Pagoda to this ship. I also believe that our ancestors won't hold these trivial matters against us."

Emmm, from what you said, he also found an excuse to calm down. It's very likely that Cao Dezhi is currently discussing with Zang Xin about finding an opportunity to bring the Poseidon family along to bolster their courage. The law doesn't punish the masses; once there are enough people, he naturally won't have any worries.

I think Commander Zhang will be our wingman...

An old artist is an old artist; his experience far surpasses that of Qian Gu Xing Ci, and his plans are meticulously organized!

The ancient star narrator couldn't help but sigh in admiration, "Wonderful, wonderful!"

In the western tent, Cao Dezhi had already set up a spatial barrier to isolate himself from all detection, while he and his partner were deeply in love.

“It is feasible. Since it is said that Qian Gu Xing Ci is favored by the Golden Tree, then this kind of plan involving gods must have come from Qian Gu Xing Ci. Qian Gu Dong Feng does not have such courage, and there may even be the tacit approval of the Golden Tree spirit.”

The way you're conveying your message doesn't sound like something a young person with little experience would say. To speak so shrewdly, you must have had some expert guidance behind you. I'm probably really up against the legendary East Wind...

There are two major problems: First, the Tang Sect cannot represent the Sea God Ancestor alone.

Second, how do we convince everyone that we truly received a divine message? If they can provide an explanation, it might be worthwhile to accept it.

……

The two, who had sought advice from the strategist, sat down again and began their ultimate duel!

Zhang Huanyun sensed a change in the two men's auras, especially Cao Dezhi, who now seemed confident.

"My Tang Clan cannot represent our Sea God Ancestor." Cao Dezhi cut to the chase, looking directly at the ancient star text.

Qian Gu Xing Ci did not respond directly, but instead focused his gaze on Zhang Huan Yun.

Zhang Huanyun was well aware of the feasibility of this plan and said loudly, "We can communicate with the Sea God Family through me and Xue Er, and contacting Shrek Academy shouldn't be too difficult either."

"The Spirit Ice Douluo Ancestor has countless connections with the Dai family, and he himself is the son-in-law of the Sea God. The Spirit Pagoda is willing to facilitate the will of the two gods!"

Seeing that everything was developing in a positive direction, Qian Gu Xing Ci seized the opportunity to join the group and help Cao Dezhi strengthen his confidence.

Seeing Cao Dezhi's moved expression, Qian Gu Xingci seized the opportunity to reassure him: "Hasn't Haotian Sect already proven the final point for us?"

The Super Douluo's devout demeanor was incredibly believable, let alone that of a Limit Douluo.

Before Cao Dezhi could ask a question, Qian Gu Xing Ci had already given his answer. The two seemed to have activated their martial spirit true forms, with the imposing Qian Gu Dong Feng and Zang Xin Dharma Images standing behind them!

Every Limit Douluo possesses great fortune; they are all arrogant geniuses. Their servile bows and three prostrations would leave anyone stunned.

"What's more, we also have true gods..."

Qian Gu Xing Ci pointed to himself.

Zhang Huanyun and Cao Dezhi, drawing on the memory of that life-giving gift, deduced the meaning behind the ancient star poem.

Golden Tree!

Zhang Huanyun stared intently at his old friend. The rule that every generation of the Cao family would have someone with the character "Yun" in their name or courtesy name was reversed in this timeline.

This plan must be pushed forward!

"I will do my best," Cao Dezhi replied.

“Then we need to change the policy targeting the Douling Empire. If they want to listen, they can listen; if they don’t, we can stop talking about fighting.” Zhang Huanyun’s eyes were deep.

Qian Gu Xing Ci stated his position, "In terms of fighting spirits, all elders in the family can make this trip!"

"Moreover, the fact that the leader previously lacked a breakthrough point in Star Luo doesn't mean we should give up. That could be the opportunity to transform the wartime alliance into a future unification of Douluo Star..."

Chapter 196 Xingluo's Predicament, the Crimson Compass, Cross-Server Chat

More than half a month later, in the Star Luo Empire.

Dai Tianling, sitting on the throne, frowned. His plan to swallow Shrek Academy was progressing slowly, and the root of the problem lay in the contents of the memorial.

'People spontaneously held a march...'

'The people are dissatisfied with the Dai family's rule...'

'The local rebel forces have been suppressed...'

The Federation's only substantive activities these days in getting the Star Luo Empire to contribute to the Blood God Legion have been bribing immigration inspectors, arresting death row inmates, and bribing locals to stir up trouble and spread the message that the Dai family has no sense of the big picture.

For six thousand years, they stood by and watched as the world faced a critical moment of survival, yet now they still think they can reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

Dai Tianling knew this was the work of the Federation, and the Federation's actions were not exactly honorable, but his thoughts could not withstand scrutiny.

From the beginning, Xingluo intended to sit back and watch the two sides fight, treating the Federation as the first line of defense against the Abyss. But now that the Federation is willing to break off relations to force Xingluo to send troops, it can only mean that the situation on the front line has become extremely critical.

He understood better than anyone the principle that when the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact; Xingluo couldn't possibly escape unscathed. However, he still wanted to use this opportunity to raise his price, at least to ensure that the Federation wouldn't target Xingluo once the pressure from the Abyss was gone.

Now that the idea has spread, the citizens of Xingluo make up the vast majority of the resistance forces. Apart from those who are obviously rebelling, Dai Tianling cannot use harsh methods to resolve the situation.

Commoners rebelling is rare in the secular world. In the past, those who intended to cause a change of regime were undoubtedly another faction of nobles outside the royal family, just like the love-hate relationship between the Xu family of Xingguan and the Dai family of Baihu.

Dai Tianling was completely baffled by this.

In a world where strength reigns supreme, where does one get the courage to rebel without a powerful martial spirit? Public discontent usually remains only in their hearts and in words, but this time it's too abnormal.

"Was it driven by the Federation? No, ordinary people aren't stupid, they won't seek death. The Federation doesn't have the ability to influence ordinary civilians in Star Luo."

"Report—"

"Neither the imperial physicians nor the chief priests noticed anything unusual!"

A eunuch's shrill voice rang out, followed by a report.

"Step down." Dai Tianling waved his hand wearily.

"Yes." The eunuch respectfully withdrew, and the imperial study fell silent once again.

Dai Tianling pinched her throbbing temples, feeling utterly cold inside.

“Those people don’t have any mind control abilities, they’re not evil spirit masters…” Dai Tianling pondered which force had caused this situation.

"The teacher went to confront that Limit Douluo who suddenly appeared in the Star Luo territory. I hope nothing bad happens."
