Douluo: Peerless Righteous Douluo
Page 279
However, there is another important thing before looking for the angel throne.
Lin Yi's previous statement in Sun and Moon that Shrek would always remain neutral and not interfere in the conflicts on the continent actually attracted the temptation of several major empires.
Not only the Three Kingdoms, to which Douluo originally belonged, but also the Sun and Moon Empire was under trial.
Especially, in the Sun-Moon Empire, Lin Yi unleashed a combat power even higher than that of an Extreme Douluo, which aroused the vigilance of several major empires.
At present, when soul guides have not yet developed to the point where they can resist the Ultimate Douluo, a strong man whose strength is even above that of the Ultimate Douluo can undoubtedly change the current situation on the continent.
In recent years, the atmosphere on the continent has become increasingly tense. Lin Yi, the rapidly growing genius who has reached the pinnacle in a short period of time, has undoubtedly stirred up the tense strings of several major empires.
The test of Douluo Dalu originally belonging to the Three Kingdoms is very interesting.
They chose to send envoys to Shrek to discuss how to rescue the elites who were forcibly abducted by the Sun-Moon Empire.
If Shrek Academy, which has always been the leader of the Douluo Three Kingdoms in competing against the Sun-Moon Empire, is indifferent to these abducted elites, or is unwilling to take action, then it can be basically concluded that the current Shrek is no longer the world's number one academy that once stood on the front line against the Sun-Moon Empire.
To save or not to save, this choice is placed before Shrek and Lin Yi.
Compared to Douluo Three Kingdoms, Sun and Moon's temptation is more radical.
The Sun-Moon Empire directly launched a war against the Star Luo Empire in the Mingdou Mountains.
It is no longer the small-scale fighting that was mainly harassment and probing, but a real war.
But it cannot be said that this is a war aimed at destroying Xingluo. Compared with the previous one, the scale has expanded significantly, but the intensity of the battlefield remains the same as before.
Although the pressure on Xingluo side increased, they could still hold on.
The reason why the Sun-Moon Empire launched this war was very simple. It was to test whether Shrek would take action. If not, then the Sun-Moon Empire might expand the scale of the war little by little and start a real war of annihilation.
If Shrek intervenes, the Sun-Moon Empire can stop at any time, or even protest against Shrek's interference in the empire's internal affairs, nominally suppressing Shrek.
To intervene or not to intervene, this is another choice.
However, it is obvious that the Sun-Moon Empire's attempt this time is a bit too radical, which is slightly different from its previous style.
After listening to the intelligence casually, I found that some situations had indeed occurred within the Sun and Moon Empire.
Before, Lin Yi revealed the true form of the World Tree in the sky above Mingdu. Under the thousand-meter-high giant tree, all the defenses in Mingdu were powerless. Even Kong Deming, the biggest trump card of the Sun and Moon Royal Family, was momentarily stunned when he saw the thousand-meter-high giant tree and had no will to resist at all.
The Emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire was already seriously ill and bedridden, holding on with only his last breath. A thousand-meter-high giant tree towered over the sky, its pressure spreading throughout the entire Mingdu. The old emperor, in shock and anger, finally breathed his last and passed away completely.
Because the incident happened suddenly, and several powerful people from the Holy Spirit Church were injured by Lin Yi, they were unable to react in time and were unable to proceed according to plan.
Moreover, after seeing Lin Yi's strength, Ye Xishui and Zhongli Wu didn't know whether Lin Yi would react if the evil soul master took control of the sun and the moon, and the matter of replacing Xu Tianran and letting the fate demon ascend to the throne was delayed.
In the end, the Holy Spirit Church chose to temporarily support Xu Tianran. In the absence of other heirs, Regent Xu Tianran successfully ascended the throne and became the new emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire.
According to Xu Tianran's previous plan, after ascending the throne, he would immediately launch a war that would sweep across the continent and unify the Douluo Continent. However, due to the strength displayed by Lin Yi, Xu Tianran had no choice but to test it out for the time being.
However, even this absolute advocate of war was quite radical, even when he was testing the waters.
He made no secret of his ambition and laid bare his idea of launching a war that would sweep across the continent without the intervention of Shrek Academy.
This makes the thing that Douluo Yuan and the Three Kingdoms least want to happen come true.
Two choices were placed before Lin Yi.
Whether it was the Three Kingdoms or the Sun-Moon Empire, they all wanted to know whether Lin Yi's statement that Shrek was neutral and would not interfere in the disputes on the continent was true or false.
Each of their temptations was also very tricky.
No matter which of these two things Lin Yi chooses or how he chooses, as long as Lin Yi makes a decision, the four empires can use it to judge Lin Yi and Shrek's inclinations, and thus determine the future of the empire.
The Three Kingdoms elites, to save or not.
The war escalates, should we take action or not?
In the meeting room of the Golden Pavilion, several elders were arguing loudly.
At this time, Lin Yi, Moon En, and Xuan Zi were all in the conference room.
Lin Yi sat in the main seat, with Mu and Xuan sitting on his left and right.
The three ultimate combat forces gathered together.
These three people alone are enough to make any person or any force on the mainland obey.
It is no exaggeration to say that with these three around, Shrek's combat power is out of sync with all other forces. In the past ten thousand years of Douluo Continent, there has never been a force with such outrageous combat power.
As long as these three spoke, everything could be confirmed. But at this moment, these three were sitting there calmly, and no one of them spoke.
No one dared to force the three to speak, so they each expressed their own views.
Below are the three elders Song, Lin and Zhuang.
They didn't talk much, but they all expressed their own ideas.
Mr. Song’s idea is to maintain stability. Peace is not easy to come by, and there should be no disputes on the mainland.
The people imprisoned by Sun and Moon will be released, and the war in the Mingdou Mountains will also be settled.
In essence, Mr. Song still stands on the side of the Three Kingdoms to which Douluo originally belonged.
This is not difficult to understand. After all, for thousands of years, the contradiction between Shrek and the Sun-Moon Empire has been almost irreconcilable. Before Lin Yi came to power, the people of Shrek were hostile to the fact that the Sun-Moon Empire belonged to Zheng Zhizheng.
Even after Lin Yi came to power, he never expressed his intention to give up his hostility towards Sun and Moon.
Only those few words he said in Mingdu before vaguely revealed Lin Yi's bias.
No one was surprised, after all, Lin Yi and Ri Yue had no enmity.
In both competitions, Lin Yi had a crushing advantage over Sun and Moon. The only time that Sun and Moon's people caused Lin Yi some trouble was when the Sun and Moon Empire assassinated Lin Yi during his travels.
But apart from Lin Yi, the only person who knew the truth had died, and the others who didn't know the inside story naturally thought that Lin Yi didn't have much hostility towards Ri Yue.
Some people also believe that Lin Yi is full of malice towards the Sun-Moon Empire. After all, the alliance between the Sun-Moon Empire and the evil soul masters is now an open secret, and Lin Yi's disgust for evil soul masters is known to the world.
That's what Mr. Lin is like.
In her opinion, the Sun-Moon Empire should release the elites of the three kingdoms and immediately stop the war in the Mingdou Mountains. On this point, she agrees with Old Song.
But as the head of the Treasure Pavilion who controls Shrek's financial power, Mr. Lin believes that although Shrek can come forward, the Douluo Three Kingdoms must give Shrek reasonable compensation. After all, Shrek is "neutral".
It’s different if you get paid to do things.
Making money is not against the sun and the moon.
Then why would the wealthy Shrek choose to attack Sun Moon for a little money? Naturally, it was because Lin Yi disliked the Sun Moon Empire because Sun Moon had allied with the evil soul master.
But on the surface, they are collecting money.
Not convinced? Think about the name Shrek and its several limits.
Through this incident, Shrek's position on the mainland can be established.
True transcendence.
Old Zhuang was much more easygoing. As one of the most senior elders, he had invested in Lin Yi's father, Lin Qingxuan, early on. After Lin Yi was accepted as a disciple by Mu En, he spoke out to defend him several times. Although he seldom expressed his opinions, everyone knew that his words carried weight.
Then, Mr. Zhuang's way of dealing with the world is there. He almost never makes any extreme remarks. Most of the time, he is in a detached state, and his only concern is his own medicinal herbs.
It's the same this time.
Mr. Zhuang is the only one among the three senior elders who did not express his own opinion.
In a word, follow the arrangements.
Although everyone was helpless, they could do nothing about it because this person's golden body was too thick.
As for the four disciples of Moon who came out of retreat, Yan Shaozhe, Xian Lin'er, Cai Meir, and Qian Duoduo, the competition was much more intense.
After the first three expressed their opinions, they kept silent and watched the other four quarrel.
Yan Shaozhe was the first to start the group. After his previous retreat, the aura of light around him was noticeably stronger, and it was obvious that he had gained a lot of insights during this period of retreat.
"The simultaneous actions of the four countries are clearly a test, and the choice must be made carefully."
Xian Lin'er sneered: "No one can see this. Just tell me what you think, don't show off here."
Despite being bullied by Xian Lin'er, Yan Shaozhe's expression did not change at all. Moon, who was sitting on the left, nodded secretly.
This highly anticipated disciple has made some progress after all.
"My idea is that the elites of the Three Kingdoms must be saved. They are the future of the various sects and academies of the Three Kingdoms. If anything happens to them, the impact on the Douluo Three Kingdoms will be too great. They must be saved. As for the war in the Mingdou Mountains..."
Yan Shaozhe paused and said, "My opinion is not to interfere. Let them fight. If the war escalates or an evil soul master appears, I, Shrek, will be responsible for mediating."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes in the conference room immediately focused on Yan Shaozhe.
Yan Shaozhe seemed unaware of it. Although he did not continue speaking, he did not take back his previous words. He was obviously sticking to his own ideas.
Lin Yi couldn't help but look at Moon En, but saw that Moon En was looking at Yan Shaozhe with a complicated look in his eyes.
Yan Shaozhe’s words are not difficult to understand.
Nothing can go wrong in the future of Douluo Three Kingdoms, but Douluo Three Kingdoms can suffer a little in the present.
Saving the elites of the Three Kingdoms is the key to ensuring that the Douluo Three Kingdoms can compete with the Sun and Moon Empire in the future.
But leaving aside the battle in Mingdou Mountains for now, this sentence is worth pondering.
First of all, with the soul guides of the Sun-Moon Empire, the Star Luo Empire will definitely not be a match for it, and it is inevitable that it will suffer some hardships.
Yan Shaozhe then said that when the war escalates, or when an evil soul master appears, Shrek will mediate...
What does this mean? It means that Yan Shaozhe wants to place Shrek Academy above the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire, or in other words, above the Douluo Three Kingdoms.
The appearance of the evil soul master was obviously to save the face of the Pavilion Master Lin Yi. After all, Lin Yi hated evil soul masters.
But putting Shrek above the four countries is not something you can say casually.
This is putting another father on the heads of the four countries. Will the four countries agree to this?
They must be unwilling, but Yan Shaozhe said so, which obviously means he doesn't care about the opinions of the four countries. Shrek is now capable of doing so.
The overall idea is obvious, similar to what Mr. Lin meant by giving Shrek a transcendent status, but it goes a step further.
This means using the four great empires as pawns.
The four countries were hostile to each other, and Shrek mediated, so that the four countries remained hostile but generally stable.
Everyone suddenly looked at Yan Shaozhe, and then Lin Yi looked at Moon En for the same reason.
After all, it was Moon who asked Yan Shaozhe to go into seclusion because Dean Yan was too narrow-minded and always calculating in his mind, which was not in line with the bright and vast spirit.
Now Yan Shaozhe has come out of seclusion and successfully broken through to level ninety-seven, and it is obvious that he has gained some insights.
These things I realized...
You asked whether his vision has expanded. Of course it has. With the four countries as chess pieces and Shrek as the chess player, not only is his vision grand, but it is also quite ambitious.
But seriously speaking, is this still a calculation? Of course it is.
Moon En had previously said that Yan Shaozhe lacked the broadness of light, had a narrow vision, and his gaze was always limited to the martial spirit system, and asked him to retreat to gain insights. Yan Shaozhe did not miss a single thing and changed everything.
After the changes, everyone discovered that Dean Yan was still calculating, but the scope of his calculations had become considerably larger.
No wonder Lin Yi felt that Yan Shaozhe's light was much greater, but it seemed that there was no change. So that's it.
Changed, but not completely.
Yan Shaozhe: Calculating is my true nature.
That's why Moon's eyes were complicated.
The light that he wanted Yan Shaozhe to understand was not like this. In the past, he always felt that Yan Shaozhe had gone astray. Now Yan Shaozhe told him that there is a way to go astray. Tell me, is this a big deal?
If they were not in the conference room now, Lin Yi would have given this senior brother a thumbs up and praised him sincerely, "Senior Brother Yan, you are awesome."
With Yan Shaozhe's idea, the ideas of the others generally did not escape the framework of the ideas of the previous few people.
But one thing is certain, that is, the elites of the Three Kingdoms must be rescued.
Whether it was because Shrek had always been the leader of the Three Kingdoms, or because Sun and Moon's capture of these people was an unconventional move - it was an unspoken rule for the organizers of the competition to guarantee the safety of the participating teams - Shrek had to rescue these people.
As for the battle in Mingdou Mountains, everyone has different attitudes.
Elders Song and Lin tended to stop it, while Yan Shaozhe persuaded Cai Meir, Xian Liner and Qian Duoduo to mediate after the war escalated.
Yan Shaozhe's words of persuasion were simple. Once the Sun-Moon Empire was completely suppressed, the difficulty of obtaining the Sun-Moon Empire's soul guide technology and rare metals would inevitably be greatly reduced. Shrek's desire to develop soul guides would enter a truly rapid development period.
Qian Duoduo chose to agree without hesitation. Compared with the development of the soul guide system, his dissatisfaction with Yan Shaozhe, the peacock, was nothing.
The same goes for Xian Lin'er. Although she is no longer the dean of the Soul Guidance Department, she cannot just give up the hard work she has put in for half her life. Especially after several years of seclusion, Xian Lin'er has figured out a lot. Instead of dwelling on the past, it is better to cherish the person in front of her. If her husband agrees, then naturally she will follow suit.
Cai Meir had a similar idea. Moreover, the combat power of the current Shrek students had skyrocketed after integrating with soul guides, and their safety had been increased several times. As a responsible dean, it was not difficult for her to agree with Yan Shaozhe's idea.
