Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

"If the Star Luo Empire can keep its word, that would be the best. The Heaven Dou Empire doesn't want many young, passionate men to die on the battlefield for some meaningless disputes."

Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue] glanced casually at the representative of the Star Luo Empire, but the imperial majesty in his pupils made them feel a chill run down their spines.

A few seconds later.

Once Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue]'s gaze shifted to Hu Liena, this woman, whose entire being exuded charm, finally spoke.

"Your Majesty Qinghe, the Spirit Hall's news and newspaper department has prepared a front-page headline for you. Within a week at most, hundreds of millions of people across the continent will know that Your Majesty has ascended the throne and become emperor."

While Hu Liena was speaking, she never let go of Dong Qing's arm, as if she were asserting some kind of sovereignty.

However, Qian Renxue wasn't angry. Anyway, Dong Qing couldn't escape that night, so she focused her attention on the representative of the last force.

"Your Majesty, Sea Dragon, hasn't Sea God Island always refrained from interfering in or participating in mainland affairs?"

Hearing Qian Renxue's question.

The Sea Dragon Douluo, who was drinking tea, slowly raised his head, revealing the curved dragon horns on his forehead, and a hint of understanding in his crimson pupils.

His lips curled into a forced smile as he said, "Your Majesty Qinghe, we have come here naturally in accordance with the wishes of the Sea God Douluo Grand Priest Poseidon. Without her approval, we would not have come to the mainland rashly."

"As for not interfering in mainland affairs, well... you might have to ask Dong Qing, the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall. He infiltrated Seagod Island half a month ago and spent most of the day in a room with the Grand Elder."

"Later, the Grand Elder summoned the Seven Holy Pillars and changed his previous decision not to have any contact with the mainland. He specially arranged for one of the Seven Holy Pillars to come to the mainland today to congratulate His Majesty Qinghe on his ascension to the throne."

These words were spoken.

Three terrifying killing intents suddenly erupted, pointing directly at Dong Qing, who was watching the show from the sidelines.

The first murderous aura came from Hu Liena. Her first thought was that it must be that scoundrel Dong Qing who went to Seagod Island to harm innocent women again.

But soon, she felt something was wrong. The high priestess of Seagod Island was known as the invincible Seagod Douluo, a terrifying woman with a soul power of level ninety-nine.

The second killing intent came from Qian Renxue. She knew Dong Qing's true power. She even felt that her mother, Bibi Dong, couldn't withstand that punch back then.

In other words.

If Dong Qing really got carried away, it wouldn't be impossible for him to forcibly bully the legendary High Priest of Sea God Island.

Moreover, she had heard about it from some rumors.

My grandfather, Qian Daoliu, was also fascinated by the Grand Priest of Sea God Island for a period of time decades ago, although he later gave it up for some unknown reason.

But this also shows that the high priestess of Poseidon Island must be an exceptionally beautiful woman.

The third wave of murderous intent came from Ning Rongrong.

She knew a little about Dongqing, although she didn't know what Seagod Island was or what status the Grand Priest of Seagod Island held in the hearts of Sea Soul Masters.

However, she greatly admired Dong Qing's ability to attract women. Considering the accidental encounters and some unexpected factors that brought her to his doorstep, this guy actually managed to win over all three beauties of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

When she returned to Tiandou City recently, she made a special trip to find Dugu Yan. Others might not know what the suddenly eccentric Dugu Yan was thinking, but how could she not know what this stupid snake was struggling with?

It was nothing more than a mixture of dislike and liking, and she herself couldn't quite distinguish her feelings for Dongqing.

I can't help but get angry as soon as I see him, and I put on a fierce look on my face, as if to say "I hate you". But my body is very honest, and I feel a little weak when I see him.

If Dongqing were even slightly bolder, she would immediately cling to him, and there wouldn't be any way to pull her away.

And this is the Dugu Yan of today, the Dugu Yan who seems a bit eccentric in Dugu Bo's eyes.

...

In the Taiji Hall of the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace, on the main hall...

Qian Renxue, seated on the dragon throne, was furious inside, but her outward expression remained calm. She couldn't help but ask, "So that's how it is, Your Highness Dongqing. Could it be that you have a close relationship with that legendary Sea God Douluo?"

Upon hearing this...

Dong Qing quickly explained, "It's just so-so. Our relationship is very ordinary. I visited the Grand Master of Sea God Island half a month ago, and we just happened to get to know each other."

Without waiting for Qian Renxue's reply, he turned to the Sea Dragon Douluo sitting opposite him and said, "Damn it, Sea Dragon, don't talk nonsense. Was that infiltration? I walked up there upright and honestly, and I also accepted your so-called island entry assessment."

"And what do you mean by 'staying in a room for most of the day'? You call that a room? It's a grand hall! The most mysterious Sea God Temple on your Sea God Island."

“It’s fine if you slander me, but it’s wrong for you to slander the High Priest. What age is she? What age am I? How could there be such a thing between us?”

In response to Dong Qing's explanation, Sea Dragon Douluo said calmly, "Your Highness Dong Qing, as you know, our Seagod Island is not open to the public. Any Soul Master who comes to Seagod Island must pass a test before entering the island. You have only passed the test to enter the island."

"However, anyone who passes the test, whether they are a native Sea Soul Master of Seagod Island or any other Soul Master from outside, must never leave Seagod Island for the rest of their lives. Otherwise, they will suffer the wrath of the Seagod and be killed by the Seven Sacred Pillars and all the Sea Soul Masters on the island."

"In other words, Your Highness, you persuaded the Grand Elder to leave the island on your own, persuaded the Grand Elder to establish diplomatic relations with the Heaven Dou Empire, and even as an outsider, you successfully entered the Sea God Temple, which even the Seven Sacred Pillars rarely have the opportunity to enter."

After being bombarded with criticism by Hailong Douluo, Dongqing was speechless, but he couldn't bring himself to reveal the details of that day.

That day, he and Poseidon at the Temple of Poseidon were just... not as dirty as you, Sea Dragon, think!

Just because your name contains the character for dragon doesn't mean that all men in the world like to talk with their lower bodies.

......

At this time.

Just as Qian Renxue was about to press Dong Qing for details about what happened after he entered the Sea God Island, she unexpectedly discovered that the people in the Taiji Hall seemed to be quite agitated.

"Unexpectedly, Seagod Island, a major power second only to the Spirit Hall, is willing to establish diplomatic relations with our Heavenly Dou at this time. His Majesty Qinghe truly deserves to be called a wise ruler."

"Originally, with the support of the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, we were completely unafraid of the Star Luo Empire. Now, with the addition of Seagod Island, the Star Luo Empire probably won't dare to provoke us again."

"Poseidon Island never participates in any affairs of the mainland. This time, it has sent the first of the Seven Sacred Pillars Sea Dragon Douluo. I believe there is no need to question its sincerity in establishing diplomatic relations with our Heavenly Dou."

These were merely whispers among the civil and military officials. The princes of the four great kingdoms and the ten dukes of the empires standing nearby were already so shocked by the news that they were speechless.

To know.

Even if Poseidon Island doesn't usually interact with the mainland, that only applies to ordinary people. It's normal for people at the bottom to not know about Poseidon Island.

But the upper class always needs to eat and drink, and they need beautiful clothes. They can't live without the supplies from the mainland, so they naturally know about the existence of Poseidon Island.

Because they knew of the existence of Seagod Island, they understood its significance even more; it was a top-tier power second only to the Spirit Hall.

"I remember this nephew of mine never leaving his home and spending all his time studying policies for governing the country. I never imagined that he would have such a connection with the Grand Master of Seagod Island."

This is the heartfelt message from the Queen of the Kingdom of Sylvester.

If she thought so, the other three princes, the ten dukes of the empire, the ministers and generals were naturally also shocked by Xue Qinghe's political skills.

They didn't believe that Poseidon Island had taken the initiative to establish diplomatic relations; it was all Dongqing's doing. Even if they were close friends, they would never go to such lengths for each other.

That's hilarious!

These are two grown men, not a couple.

They are more willing to believe what they believe, which is part of Xue Qinghe's (Qian Renxue's) personal charm.

......

This is the end.

When Qian Renxue first ascended the throne, the people's hearts were slightly unsettled. However, Dong Qing's sudden move to win over Seagod Island and establish diplomatic relations completely overwhelmed them under the prevailing trend.

at this time.

Having also figured this out, Qian Renxue didn't press Dong Qing on how he persuaded the Grand Elder of Seagod Island; instead, her gaze towards him softened considerably.

"It's so good to have you!"

Chapter 510, Dong Qing? He...hehe...is actually the same as me!

The main hall of the Tiandou Imperial Palace, Taiji Hall.

Seated on the dragon throne, Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue] spoke eloquently: "Today, the three great sects—Haotian Sect, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect—have all come to participate in the enthronement ceremony. I am extremely gratified..."

She rattled off a whole bunch of official jargon, and Dongqing, sitting below, couldn't help but sneak a yawn.

but.

Only Dong Qing could act so casually, since everyone knew that he had a close relationship with Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue], and others would not dare to act so recklessly on such an important occasion.

"Your Majesty Qinghe, Tang Yongren, the Fifth Elder of the Haotian Sect..."

"Your Majesty Qinghe, Chen Xin, the swordsman of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School..."

"Your Majesty Qinghe, the Jade Crown of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan..."

Representatives from the three upper sects began to speak one by one, and the main hall gradually became noisy again.

Of course, even if it's noisy, it's only relative. As soon as Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue] speaks, the entire hall will return to deathly silence.

"Your Majesty Sword Douluo, you are ascending the throne today. Why is my teacher not here?" Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue] asked.

The voice just fell.

Overwhelmed by the majesty of the Qinghe Emperor, the hall fell into complete silence.

Only Sword Douluo Chen Xin stood up and said, "The sect leader is unwell and unable to come in person this time, so his daughter Ning Rongrong is here on his behalf."

He had long known that Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue] would ask this question, after all, Ning Fengzhi was the nominal teacher of this Emperor Qinghe.

The other three sects can send their second-in-command and sect elders, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School shouldn't just send Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

"Is the teacher unwell?" Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue] asked with a hint of worry in her voice.

Although Ning Fengzhi was only his teacher in name, this teacher was not someone like Yu Xiaogang.

Perhaps this teacher could offer little help in cultivating soul power, but in teaching the art of imperial strategy, even Qian Renxue had to admit that he was a good teacher.

Because she could sense that this Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School Master truly wanted to train her into a qualified emperor, and genuinely wanted to see the Heaven Dou Empire reborn under her leadership.

"It's like a cold, with a persistent cough, but I believe I'll recover soon," Sword Douluo Chenxin said calmly.

However, although he appeared calm, he couldn't help but feel worried, because he couldn't understand how a level 79 Soul Saint could be infected with a disease similar to a cold.

Moreover, he had a vague feeling that this was not a simple cold.

Hearing Sword Douluo Chen Xin say this, Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue] finally felt relieved. It was nothing more than a cold and cough, the kind of illness that only ordinary people get.

These were all minor illnesses. Although she had no idea how a Soul Master of this level could contract these diseases, she was able to put her worries to rest.

Moreover, she believed that Sword Douluo Chenxin had no reason to lie to her, since Ning Rongrong's identity itself represented Ning Fengzhi to a certain extent.

the reason is simple.

If this teacher was really faking illness and didn't want to come, he wouldn't have needed to send his own daughter over.
