This is easy to understand; cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents.

Even after the Northern Song Dynasty became the Southern Song Dynasty, factional strife did not cease, and the final outcome was that everyone perished together.

The Star Luo Empire happens to be located in the south, and it has a tradition of fighting between each generation of princes, which makes Chen Feng think twice.

He wasn't worried about his personal safety, but rather about not being able to get things done in this situation, because the so-called party struggles were mostly about interests, and what he wanted to do would inevitably infringe on the interests of others.

“What if I don’t go back?” Dai Mubai suddenly asked.

"What do you think, Oscar?" Chen Feng didn't answer, but looked at Oscar instead.

He can't shoulder everything in the future alone, so naturally he needs to cultivate some helpers. Judging from his previous answer, Oscar seems to be a good choice.

Oscar thought for a moment and said:

“I don’t think it will have a fundamental impact whether you go back or not, because as your teammates, we are already labeled as such. Feng just said that partisan struggles are about interests. As long as we do things that harm people’s interests, these people will definitely use you as a scapegoat.”

"Even if I'm not even in the country?" Dai Mubai frowned deeply.

Chen Feng nodded. "Yes, even if you're not in the country, if you go back, they'll say we're helping you seize the throne. If you don't go back, they'll say you're remotely controlling us to help you seize the throne."

"Is this even reasonable?" Xiao Wu couldn't help but complain.

"Reason?" Chen Feng laughed. "Xiao Wu, if one day someone wanted to steal something from your White Cloud Smoke, but didn't take it all, and only took a third to build their own territory, what would you do?"

"Of course we should kill him! How dare he steal my things!" Xiao Wu realized something as soon as she finished speaking, scratched her head, and fell silent.

Dai Mubai looked somewhat irritated, and he couldn't help but say:

"I have long since abdicated the throne, which is common knowledge. Anyone who wants to smear me for vying for the throne should at least provide evidence, right?"

Chen Feng laughed somewhat sarcastically, "Evidence? Completely fabricated."

Dai Mubai felt a chill in his heart, as if he sensed endless darkness from those three words, and finally fell silent.

Chen Feng continued:

What I just said is a prediction of the future, and it may not necessarily happen. When it comes to which path we should choose, the two main things we need to focus on are authority and resources.

"The so-called authority, to put it bluntly, is the support of those in power. In this respect, the two sides of Tian Dou Xing Luo are actually quite similar, but the gap between the two sides in terms of resources is widened because of the existence of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"There's something you might not be aware of: although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's World Warehouse is nominally the sect's private property, it is actually the foundation of the Heaven Dou Empire. This is a tacit understanding between Uncle Ning and the Emperor. Without the Emperor's trust and support, the World Warehouse could not have become so wealthy."

Everyone nodded in agreement. They knew that Chen Feng had asked Ning Rongrong to go home to get her things, but if they went to the Star Luo Empire, they probably wouldn't be able to do that anymore. This made the scales in everyone's hearts gradually tip.

"Therefore, in terms of both authority and resources, the Heaven Dou Empire has a greater advantage. So my opinion is that we should make the Heaven Dou Empire the main development site for the Soul Guidance System, but the Star Luo Empire should not be neglected. They can conduct technical exchanges with us. We will discuss the specific arrangements for this later. As for how the Star Luo Empire will apply the Soul Guidance Technology, that is up to them to work on." Chen Feng concluded.

In short, the Hydra organization is based in Tiandou, where it conducts research and development, promoting the implementation and expansion of the Soul Guidance System. Xingluo only provides the technology, and it's not free. After obtaining the technology, Xingluo's leaders have to figure out how to use it themselves.

After hearing these words, Dai Mubai breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was not clear about the future prospects of the Soul Guidance System, he believed that Chen Feng would not waste his time on useless things. Therefore, he was afraid that Chen Feng would simply abandon the Star Luo Empire and not include it in his plans.

Since he's still willing to help out, Dai Mubai is already satisfied. After all, he's just a prince, not the crown prince, so this is about enough.

If you want to achieve more, as Oscar just said, you have no choice but to fight for the throne even if you don't want to.

After reaching a consensus on the route, the atmosphere of the meeting became more relaxed, and everyone began to chat about the interesting things they had experienced these past few days.

Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief. The reason he brought up this topic today was to unify their thoughts and goals.

It's best to do this sooner rather than later, otherwise disagreements will definitely arise, and then it won't be something that can be resolved with just a few words.

Although Chen Feng named the organization Hydra, he didn't want it to actually be like Hydra with nine different ideas. It was obviously the most appropriate thing to set a course while everyone's feelings were still strong.

After everyone left, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing stayed behind.

Chen Feng squeezed Zhu Zhuqing's hand and said:

"Zhu Qing, I did not choose the Star Luo Empire. I hope you don't mind."

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head. "Of course I don't mind. You did the right thing. This place is indeed more suitable for your development. Besides, you didn't kick Xingluo out of the game. That's enough."

Ning Rongrong then leaned over and asked:

"What would you do if the two countries went to war one day?"

Zhu Zhuqing paused for a moment, then smiled and looked at Chen Feng, saying:

"I believe Xiaofeng will have a proper solution."

Ning Rongrong pouted, and Chen Feng poked her forehead with his finger, "You, don't even think about causing trouble."

"What do you mean by causing trouble? I was just stating the facts," Ning Rongrong said, rubbing her forehead in dissatisfaction.

She glanced at Chen Feng, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but ask:

"Xiao Feng, don't you think what I said in the meeting just now was a bit too harsh?"

"A bold and decisive approach?" Chen Feng found it somewhat amusing; it was the first time he had ever heard someone use the word in this way.

"Oh dear, I just said that subconsciously. You...you shouldn't think I'm a ruthless person," Ning Rongrong said somewhat nervously.

I don't think so.

"Really?"

Chen Feng didn't answer directly, but pointed to the woods ahead and said:

“Rongrong, this grove of trees is a shared memory for all of us. But what if one day it withers and decays, and pruning, fertilizing, watering, and spraying pesticides are no longer effective? What do you think we should do?”

Ning Rongrong slowly lowered her hand from her forehead, her expression becoming calm, and Zhu Zhuqing's eyes also became much more serious.

After a while, Ning Rongrong said, word by word:

"They should all be eradicated."

......

The experiment on the Foundation Ring was scheduled for two days after the symposium.

That day, everyone gathered again in the forest of the academy, and the siblings Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu also came.

Seeing the others looking so serious, Huo Wu couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Could it be that these people are truly confident in creating a Foundation Building Ring?

Huo Wushuang didn't have many thoughts on it; he was just following his sister to join in the fun.

Not far from them stood Bai Chenxiang and a little boy. The little boy was holding a wind slime, and Bai Chenxiang was whispering instructions to the boy:

"Bai Yang, don't be nervous when you go up there. We will do our best to ensure your safety."

Although Bai Yang was young, he acted like a little adult. "Don't worry, Sister Chenxiang. I know this experiment is dangerous, but I'm prepared. This is a great thing that will go down in history. Even if I die, people will remember me."

"What do you mean by 'no life'? Say such unlucky things! Say 'pui pui pui'!" Bai Chenxiang tapped Bai Yang on the head.

Bai Yang: "Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"

While the two were talking quietly, Tang San had already taken out the soul-guided metal frame he had been forging over the past two days and placed it on the open ground.

The frame was made to be just the right size, large enough for an adult to sit cross-legged inside. It also had five grooves on it, which were for placing foundation-building materials. To prevent the experiment from failing due to a lack of foundation-building materials, Tang San had specially reserved two more spaces.

"Let's begin," Chen Feng gestured to Dai Mubai and Bai Chenxiang.

The two arrived at the Soul Guidance Frame and placed their respective Foundation Building items into the frame.

"Is this all there is to it?" Bai Chenxiang asked.

"Let's try it first, and if it doesn't work, we'll see if we're missing anything," Chen Feng said.

"Then come here, Bai Yang." Bai Chenxiang turned around and waved to the little boy.

Bai Yang licked his lips, walked up nervously, handed the wind slime in his arms to Bai Chenxiang, and then stood in the middle of the soul-guided metal frame.

"Bai Yang, before we begin the experiment, let me confirm one more time: are you aware of the potential risks involved and are you willing to participate?" Chen Feng asked Bai Yang with a serious expression.

Bai Yang swallowed hard. He had been so righteous before he came up, but now he suddenly felt a little flustered.

He looked at Chen Feng and nodded, then stammered, "Yes, Mr. Chen Feng, I know this experiment may be life-threatening, and I know it may give me a bad spirit ring, but I... I am still willing to participate."

Chen Feng noticed that Bai Yang's legs were trembling slightly, so he said:

"Sit down first, cross your legs, and once you're ready, channel your soul power into this frame."

“Okay.” Bai Yang sat down, staring blankly at the frame in front of him.

The others didn't urge them, but waited quietly. Tang San and Xiao Wu went to a spot not far from Bai Yang, ready to provide first aid at any time.

After a while, Bai Yang finally mustered his courage and reached out his hand toward the soul-guided metal frame.

Tang San and Xiao Wu summoned their martial souls, ready to fuse them immediately if anything went wrong.

But after a dozen seconds, Bai Yang opened his eyes and said with some confusion:

"It seems... there's no reaction?"

Chen Feng was not surprised by this situation at all; he never thought the experiment would succeed on the first try.

“Mistress, just like before, provide him with some life energy.”

"Hmm." Tang San nodded, letting the Blue Silver Grass spread over and wrap around Bai Yang's waist. "Let's try again."

Bai Yang curiously touched the Blue Silver Grass on his waist, feeling a sense of comfort from it, as if the soul power he had just lost was slowly recovering.

Feeling much more at ease, Bai Yang reached out his hand towards the soul-guided metal frame again. This time, the frame reacted, and the three foundation-building items emitted a faint white light, with small vortices appearing.

However, these strange phenomena quickly subsided, and nothing happened on the field again, just like before.

"There was some reaction, but not much," Ma Hongjun commented.

"Xiangxiang, go and input your soul power into the frame with Bai Yang," Chen Feng instructed once again.

His experiment was to try all the possibilities to determine the necessary conditions for the formation of the Foundation Ring, or rather, the necessary conditions for the formation of the Soul Ring.

Bai Chenxiang went up to try, but the experiment still failed. The only change was that the white light and cyclone on the foundation-building item became a little more obvious.

"Let the soul beasts give it a try," Gu Yueling suggested at this moment.

Chen Feng nodded, and was about to call the Dark Soul Cat over when he heard Bai Chenxiang say:

"How about letting Xiaobai give it a try?"

Chapter 266 The matter of Cao Pi may be feasible.

noob?

Chen Feng glanced at the big white dumpling in Bai Chenxiang's arms and nodded, "Alright, let's give it a try."

Although he felt that Xiaobai's intelligence was insufficient to cooperate with the experiment.

But experiments are all about trying out all sorts of possibilities.

After receiving permission, Bai Chenxiang placed Xiaobai on the ground and then demonstrated by channeling her soul power into the frame in front of it.

But no matter how Bai Chenxiang demonstrated, Xiao Bai just stared at her with her big, innocent eyes, showing no sign of trying to do it.

This made Bai Chenxiang a little discouraged. "Brother Feng, why don't we let Xiao Hei do it? Xiao Bai isn't smart enough."

Chen Feng stroked his chin, and an idea suddenly came to his mind. "No rush, let me try again. Inputting soul power is not as complicated as ring expansion. Soul beasts with lower intelligence may not be unable to learn it."

"Then what should we do?" Bai Chenxiang asked curiously.

Huo Wu, who had been observing from the sidelines, also had a question at this moment: What is Tuo Huan?

She instinctively felt that this was a very important question, but she didn't ask it at that moment, instead continuing to be a quiet observer.

Chen Feng approached Bai Chenxiang and asked, "Xiangxiang, do you still have any of the fruits that Xiaobai usually eats?"

"Yes, Brother Feng, do you want some?" Bai Chenxiang asked blankly.

"No, I want to use it as a teaching tool."

"Oh." Although Bai Chenxiang didn't understand, she still took out two apples from the Indigo Sea and handed them to Chen Feng.

"Xiaobai loves to eat apples the most, so I buy some every day, and I also eat them myself when I have nothing to do."

Chen Feng took the apple and asked, "Has it been washed?"

"It's been washed."

"Alright, Xiangxiang, you'll follow my instructions from now on." Chen Feng squatted down, holding an apple in each hand.

"Okay." Bai Chenxiang also squatted down, looking ready for battle.

At this moment, Xiao Bai's gaze had shifted to the apple in Chen Feng's hand, his big, innocent eyes filled with longing.

Chen Feng ignored it and pointed to the soul guidance frame in front of him, saying, "Input soul power."
