Douluo: Evolution from the Human-Faced Demon Spider

Chapter 149 The war begins

"Ah? Emperor Xue Ye, are you asking me this?" Fang Chang pretended to be at a loss. "We in the Spider God Cult have always longed for world peace, so we naturally don't want to see war."

After the incident at Xue Qinghe, Emperor Xue Ye ordered the establishment of the Spider God Cult as the state religion, invisibly tying them to his own Tiandou Empire.

How could Fang Chang not see through his thoughts? On the one hand, he secretly cursed Emperor Xue Ye as an old fox for daring to plot against him, and on the other hand, he was also thinking about how to plot back.

The leaders of the various forces sitting in the hall all understood his words tacitly.

Longing for peace, what a lie! Back then, this Spider God messenger caused quite a stir in Hanhai City.

This time he will come forward to expose Xue Qinghe's conspiracy, and no one will think that he has good intentions. He probably just wants to strike at his mortal enemy, the Spirit Hall.

If the Tiandou Empire really went to war with the Spirit Hall, then apart from the Xingluo Empire, the happiest ones would probably be the Spider God Cult.

As expected, the Spider God's messenger changed the subject before he finished speaking, "Although we long for peace, when the time comes when we have to fight, blindly tolerating will only cause the people to suffer more."

"Moreover, the people are already furious. If we do nothing, I'm afraid your prestige among the people will be greatly damaged."

What a great move for the people! On the surface, Fang Chang said that he was very reluctant to go to war, but in fact he was persuading people to go to war. He also brought up public opinion as the core point to stimulate Emperor Xue Ye.

Emperor Xue Ye is now old, and he has clearly felt that his health is deteriorating in recent years. He is afraid that he can't hold on for a few more years.

Given his status, he naturally does not seek power or money. All he wants is a false reputation, or in other words, the reputation of the people.

Just as Fang Chang said, now that things have developed to this point, if he continues to avoid fighting, the people will definitely complain about him. Even after his death, there will still be people who will continue to scold him for being incompetent and stupid.

This is something that no one who claims to be a wise ruler can accept.

Emperor Xue Ye looked troubled, and it was obvious that some of his inner thoughts had begun to waver.

Seeing his performance, Fang Chang quickly added fuel to the fire, "As for what the generals said just now, the combat power of the Heaven Dou Empire at the level of soul masters is still far behind that of the Spirit Hall."

"For this issue, my Spider God Cult can support the Tiandou Empire. With our current influence on the mainland, we can still gather one or two thousand spirit masters, if not many."

Today, the number of soul masters directly under the Spirit Hall is estimated to be at least over 10,000. If we add in the various branch halls and some large and small forces that have affiliated with them, this number will probably increase significantly.

As for the Tiandou Empire, there are an estimated 4,000 to 5,000 soul masters directly under the royal family. Add in the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and some large and small forces within the empire, and it is estimated that at most they can gather around 10,000 soul masters.

This is just the difference in numbers, the difference in soul master levels is even greater. If the Spider God Cult is willing to stand on the side of the Tiandou Empire at this time, it will definitely be a great help to them.

Emperor Xue Ye's frown gradually relaxed. Seeing his attitude, another imperial general stepped forward to advise him, "Your Majesty, the Xing Luo Empire..."

Although he didn't say all the words, the implication was very clear.

There are more than just the Tiandou Empire and the Spirit Hall on the continent. If this matter is not handled properly, it may lead to the Xingluo Empire becoming the only dominant force, and even the foundation they have accumulated over hundreds of years will be handed over to others.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry too much about this matter." Fang Chang stood up again at this time, "Since the Spirit Hall dared to act like this towards the Heaven Dou Empire, would it not take any action towards the Xing Luo Empire?"

"Let's take a step back and say that we are not the only ones who are worried about this problem. Isn't Spirit Hall worried that after going to war with us, the Xing Luo Empire will take the opportunity to settle accounts with us?"

"Instead of worrying about it, we might as well throw this problem to the Spirit Hall. With their style of doing things, they will definitely drag the Xingluo Empire into it. Even if they fight with the two empires at the same time, there will be no hidden dangers."

After listening to Fang Chang's words, Emperor Xue Ye suddenly realized. Yes, when they were worried about this issue, the Spirit Hall must have had the same idea.

Being targeted by two major forces at the same time, it is impossible for the Xingluo Empire to remain immune and take the opportunity to hide behind and reap the benefits.

After being led by him, the generals of the Tiandou Empire were speechless for a moment, and could only express that they were willing to lead the army to the front once the war broke out.

At this point, there was no more resistance for the Tiandou Empire to declare war on the Spirit Hall. Seeing this, Emperor Xue Ye no longer hesitated and immediately issued a holy decree, announcing the official start of the war with the Spirit Hall.

In the following few days, there was a lot of movement in the Tiandou Empire. All the soul masters, big and small, in the empire received invitations from the royal family, and a large number of troops also went to the border. War was about to break out.

The Spirit Hall is obviously not to be underestimated. After they discovered the intention of the Heaven Dou Empire, they responded immediately and mobilized a large number of spirit masters to the border with the Heaven Dou Empire.

Some forces secretly controlled by them also followed suit, inciting emotions everywhere and constantly harassing the food supply of the Tiandou Empire army.

At this time, the Xing Luo Empire also transferred a large number of troops and spirit masters to the border. Although they had no intention of going to war with the Spirit Hall, they had obviously strengthened their vigilance.

There were constant frictions between the Tiandou Empire and the Spirit Hall on the border, and the conflict escalated at one point, but neither side actually took action.

They are all waiting, waiting for the top fighters at the top to take action first.

The Tiandou Empire was led by Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo and Fang Chang, while the Spirit Hall had five Titled Douluos.

After testing each other for a long time, they finally came into combat, and a real war broke out among their soldiers.

Various soul power fluctuations flashed by, and the soul masters in both camps attacked together, pouring a large number of long-range attacks into the opponent's camp.

At this time, ordinary soldiers were like cannon fodder. They were blown to pieces by the soul power attack before they could rush to the other side.

Even the lower-level spirit masters felt powerless at this moment. In such a war, the role of a spirit master was at least equivalent to that of ten ordinary soldiers, and a high-level spirit master could at least outperform hundreds of people.

It is precisely because of this that, although the military strength of the Tiandou Empire was more than ten times that of the Spirit Hall, it was temporarily at a disadvantage when the actual battle began.

As for the high-level combat forces, Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong each led a Soul Emperor-level member of the Seven Treasures Glazed Clan into battle.

With their increased power, they were fighting one against two, against two Titled Douluo from the Spirit Hall, and the battle was difficult to determine for a while.

On Fang Chang's side, his opponent was a Spirit Hall priest with a spirit power of level ninety-six. At this time, the two were facing each other, with a distance of less than ten meters between them.

While Fang Chang was sizing up this Title Douluo, he was also sizing up Fang Chang. Until a certain moment, this Spirit Hall worshiper finally couldn't hold back and took the lead.

He really wanted to try out the strength of this Spider God Messenger who was said to be so powerful in their Spirit Hall.

As he made his move, Fang sighed, a pair of blood wings spread out behind him, flames ignited on one hand, and ice formed on the other hand.

Just when the Titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall was about to touch him, Fang Chang's figure flashed ghostly, and two phantoms of ice and fire cut through the sky.
