Chapter 421: Ning Fengzhi’s speculation
"This... the Star Luo Empire is not weak. Isn't it too risky?"
Although Qian Renxue knew that Ye Chen was very strong, she really couldn't tell how strong he was and to what extent.
Youdao said that 'two fists are difficult to defeat with four hands'. Qian Renxue couldn't help but feel a little worried when one person could challenge the entire empire's high-level combat power.
"It doesn't matter, you have to believe in the strength of your man! If all the masters on the continent were to fight shoulder to shoulder, I might lose, but if it's just the Star Luo Empire, I will definitely win!"
Ye Chen is still very confident about his own strength.
Moreover, the Xingluo Empire did not have Tang Chen's level of powerhouses. If it were just an ordinary titled Douluo, even if there were dozens or twenty of them, he would not be intimidated.
It can be said that as long as the god does not appear, he is a symbol of invincibility on the mainland.
"Okay then, I'll let you know when the time comes."
Qian Renxue was infected by Ye Chen's self-confidence. Since Ye Chen said so, she would not persuade him.
When Ye Chen had not yet advanced to the title level, he was able to fight back when faced with the siege of the seven title Douluo from the Haotian Sect.
Now that he has advanced to the title of Douluo, even if he cannot defeat all the masters of Xingluo, he will not be in any danger and his life safety is still guaranteed.
......
After leaving the palace and returning to the mansion, Ye Chen found that Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin were drinking tea in their living room.
"Uncle Ning, Grandpa Jian, you are here."
Ye Chen greeted the two of them.
Ning Fengzhi put down the tea cup in his hand and asked, "Did you just go to the palace?"
"Well, I just came back from the palace."
Ye Chen nodded.
"What do you think of the Xingluo royal family?"
Ning Fengzhi asked Ye Chen.
"What do you think? Of course they will be destroyed~! Anyway, the Dai family has a grudge against me, and now they have assassinated old man Xue Ye. The war between the two empires is inevitable."
Ye Chen shrugged.
"Do you also think it was the Dai family who did it?"
Although the assassin who assassinated Emperor Xue Ye possessed the White Tiger Spirit unique to the Dai family, in Ning Fengzhi's view, the murderer was not necessarily the Dai family, or the assassin was not sent by the Dai family.
As an emperor, Dai Yutian could not have thought of the consequences of sending an assassin to kill Emperor Xue Ye. Would the Dai family do such a useless thing?
What's more, even if Dai Yutian wanted to assassinate Emperor Xue Ye, he couldn't send his own titled Douluo! Otherwise, wouldn't it be obvious that they did it?
"Besides the Dai family, who else can be the titled Douluo of the White Tiger Spirit?"
Ye Chen was not surprised that Ning Fengzhi could detect something fishy in this.
After all, Ning Fengzhi is an old fox, and he still has some brains.
"There are so many weird soul skills on the mainland. It's not surprising that there are soul skills that can transform martial souls."
Ning Fengzhi stared at Ye Chen and said seriously.
In fact, Ning Fengzhi suspected that the assassination of Emperor Xue Ye was closely related to Ye Chen.
This suspicion is not unfounded. With Ye Chen's strength, he will definitely be able to detect it immediately when there are masters using weapons in Tiandou City.
After the assassin assassinated Emperor Xue Ye, he was able to escape Tiandou City safely. Apparently Ye Chen didn't stop him.
So the question is, why didn't Ye Chen stop it?
Could it be that this martial spirit was White Tiger's assassin, someone disguised by Ye Chen himself?
After all, Ye Chen only arrived at the scene of the assassination after the assassin left.
Since Ye Chen can disguise the year of his soul ring, is it not impossible to disguise his martial soul and soul skills?
However, Ning Fengzhi couldn't figure out why Ye Chen wanted to assassinate Emperor Xue Ye?
Ye Chen: "..."
Look at what this father-in-law means, have you guessed that his son-in-law did this?
But it’s okay to guess. As the father-in-law, it’s impossible to report on his son-in-law, right?
After thinking for a moment, Ye Chen said: "I can only say that the assassin is indeed a titled Douluo of the Dai family."
Although he didn't tell the whole story, Ye Chen told the truth. Dai Kun was indeed a direct member of the Dai family, and he was also the third elder of the Xingluo royal family!
"Is it?"
Ning Fengzhi raised his eyebrows. On the surface, his expression did not change much, but in fact, he breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the assassination of Emperor Xueye is not a conspiracy of Wuhun Palace to divert trouble from the east, it will be fine.
Ning Fengzhi actually didn't care about Emperor Xue Ye's death.
After all, the one who has an ally relationship with the Qibao Glazed Sect is the Tiandou Empire, not Emperor Xueye.
And for Ning Fengzhi, it would not be a bad thing for his disciple Xue Qinghe to become the Emperor of Tiandou.
At the very least, with this level of master-disciple relationship, the alliance between the Tiandou Empire and the Qibao Glazed Sect can become stronger.
In addition, from Ye Chen's answer, Ning Fengzhi also knew that this matter really had something to do with Ye Chen that he didn't know about, otherwise Ye Chen wouldn't have answered like this.
"You want the Tiandou Empire to annex the Star Luo Empire?"
Suddenly, Ning Fengzhi thought of this.
If this was Ye Chen's purpose, then everything would be explained.
In Ning Fengzhi's view, Ye Chen used unknown means to control a titled Douluo of the Dai family. After assassinating Emperor Xue Ye, he took the blame to the Xingluo royal family and used the assassination of Emperor Xue Ye to trigger a scandal. The great war between two empires.
Then Ye Chen left the field and sniped at the masters of the Star Luo Empire. Without the masters, the Star Luo army would definitely not be a match for the Tiandou army, allowing the Tiandou Empire to annex the entire Star Luo Empire.
However, what Ning Fengzhi was worried about was whether his disciple Xue Qinghe was behind the assassination of Emperor Xue Ye.
If Xue Qinghe is also involved, then Ning Fengzhi will have to deal with the master-disciple relationship with Xue Qinghe from a different angle.
After all, I can do anything to him. He is just a teacher. He might be sold one day without even knowing it.
"Why can't Tiandou annex Xingluo?"
Facing Ning Fengzhi's question, Ye Chen said calmly.
Regardless of whether it was for his own selfish reasons or not, Ye Chen felt that there was no need for the Star Luo Empire to continue to exist.
Having experienced a stable social order in his previous life, Ye Chen knew that perhaps the unification war would be cruel and many soldiers would die on the battlefield.
But in the long run, a continental unification war is necessary.
Because a unified society is definitely more beneficial to the hundreds of millions of civilians on the mainland than two or three military groups competing for hegemony.
In the original work, Bibi Dong established the Wuhun Empire, sent an army of soul masters to sneak attack on the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, destroyed the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus family, declared war with Tiandou and the Star Luo Empire, and wanted to unify the Douluo Continent. In fact, she did everything right.
Wrong, it was just that her strength was not enough, or she failed to pay attention to Tang San from the beginning.
As for whether the new empire after the unification will decay in the future, that is not something that should be considered now.
