Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 1053 Intimidation of Heavenly Battle
"That went a bit too far."

Seeing the entire southern city wall of Tiandou City collapse, Zhou Qing's eyes twitched slightly. He said to Tang San, "Didn't we agree to only damage the city gates?"

"Um... since the entire south wall has been destroyed, there's no need to destroy the other three walls." Tang San was a little guilty, but he quickly came up with an excuse for himself.

To be honest, since opening up his inner realm, he hadn't tested the power of this self-generated martial soul combination technique. Who knew it would be so powerful, actually collapsing the entire wall—

Since things have come to this point, there's no point in bringing it up again, especially since it's not a big deal.

“In that case, why don’t you destroy the other three as well? That would balance things out a bit,” Zhou Qing suggested after thinking for a moment.

Tang San rolled his eyes:
Then what were you saying just now?
Immediately, Tang San released the Blue Silver Emperor again, but unlike before, this time he condensed three Blue Silver Overlord Spears in his hands, which was also a combination skill of his martial soul:

The plant instincts possessed by the first four soul skills—Life Accumulation, Blue Silver Spirit, Sun and Moon Light, and Moment of Bloom—that is, accumulating energy, sprouting and growing, absorbing light, and reproducing and blooming, were integrated into the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, making it a seed.

call out!
Tang San hurled three Blue Silver Overlord Spears, which fell from the sky and accurately embedded themselves in the center of the east, west, and north city walls, penetrating into the ground.

Then——

hum!
The earth trembled, and blue silver emperor plants grew on the city wall, squeezing the gaps between the blue bricks, causing the city wall to crack and fall off.

Zhou Qing blew another gust of wind in the Xun position, scattering the rubble into dust, so that the soldiers falling from the city wall would not suffer fatal injuries... at most, they would suffer broken bones.

Xue Qinghe, Ning Fengzhi, and the others were dumbfounded.

Ning Fengzhi, in particular, now seriously doubts whether Emperor Xueye's 800,000-strong army has been completely wiped out!

With Zhou Qing and Tang San's combined abilities, they could easily sweep through the Douluo Continent!
What's the point of fighting?

【Let's tie Xue Qinghe up!】

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo kept giving Ning Fengzhi meaningful glances.

Ning Fengzhi was indeed hesitating.

reputation!

However, he still made a plan.

Just as he approached Xue Qinghe, preparing to tie her up with Sword Douluo, Zhou Qing spoke up, saying, "We only have a little over ten thousand people; we can't control the vast Heaven Dou City. Even if we take it, it won't make a difference, so—"

Xue Qinghe, we're here to negotiate!

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi quickly removed his hand from the storage soul tool at his waist and helped Xue Qinghe up.

Xue Qinghe then shouted, "What are the conditions?"

"We're going to auction off these teachers and students of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy right here. Are you willing to buy them?" Zhou Qing shouted, and the Red Turban Soldiers brought out the teachers and students of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

This greatly surprised Xue Qinghe, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and the students from the advanced academies who had been temporarily summoned from the city.

Selling to the nobility?
How could someone come up with such a thing as a deficit! Even if one were to buy and sell nobles, the nobles would first have to be stripped of their noble status, reduced to commoners, and made into slaves before they could be sold!

But what about the teachers and students of Tiandou Academy?
Apart from a very few exceptionally gifted commoners, most of them are powerful and influential, and even if they are not nobles, they have considerable influence behind them.

[The Red Society is really determined to carry out their ideals to the end!] Ning Fengzhi sighed inwardly.

"Your Highness, what do you think?" Ning Fengzhi asked her before Xue Qinghe could even ask.

If we can't defeat the Red Society, then we can only temporarily submit to their wishes.

However, this matter cannot be agreed to by him, the sect leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, nor can he even make a suggestion, otherwise it will arouse the resentment of the forces behind those noble teachers and students.

Seeing this, Xue Qinghe had no choice but to agree.

“In that case, let Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and Brother Xue start.” Zhou Qing smiled, ordering someone to identify Xue Beng as the first to be mentioned. He then produced a list and said, “We don’t want money, just all sorts of rare treasures collected by the royal court, soul tools with a history of over a hundred years, diamonds, crystals, flame agate, ten-thousand-year-old dragon blood fungus, the Vast Ocean Universe Cover…”

As Zhou Qing listed the rare treasures from the Heavenly Dou Treasury, Qian Renxue gritted her teeth, glared fiercely at Xue Beng, and wanted to give up on this unreliable "brother" from a different father and mother.

But now that she is Xue Qinghe, she must redeem her younger brother, Xue Beng.

This matter concerns the dignity of the royal family!
Even if she wished Xue Beng to die, what choice would the other nobles in the city make if he, as the crown prince, did this? Would they follow her example and abandon their own offspring?

trouble!

so troublesome!
very troublesome!

At this moment, Qian Renxue, who had been put on hold and forced to set an example, finally understood from the bottom of her heart why Chi wanted to implement reforms. The network of interests among the nobles was simply too intricate, and the Crown Prince, as the next emperor, was at the center of this entanglement. Every move he made had to consider not only himself but also the interests of other nobles and families connected to him—it was truly troublesome!
"Okay! I'll give it!"

Xue Qinghe gritted his teeth and ordered his men to retrieve the treasures Zhou Qing had requested from the imperial treasury.

When the treasure was delivered, the soul tool that hindered the flow of soul power on Xue Beng's body was also removed, and he was pushed towards Xue Qinghe's side, where the "city gates were wide open".

Xue Beng was about to say something, but Xue Qinghe stopped him and called out to Zhou Qing, "I am willing to redeem all the other teachers and students of Tiandou Royal Academy. Just tell me what you want."

The four walls of Tiandou City have collapsed. In order to stabilize the people's hearts, she must stabilize the emotions of the nobles and officials in the city and win over a group of people.

"Sorry, we want all the treasures from these noble families."

Zhou Qing showed his appreciation, but then took out a list and said leisurely, "If Your Highness is willing to believe us, you can let us into the city. We guarantee that we will not take a single needle or thread from ordinary people, only the various rare treasures on this list. What do you think?"

Letting you into the city would be out of the question!

wrong!

Even if they want to enter the city, we can't stop them!

So what exactly are these guys here for? Could it really be just to extort money? Why not just ask them for compensation? Why do they want rare treasures, or even antiques?
Unable to understand, Xue Qinghe could only ask Ning Fengzhi to help contact all the nobles in the city and bring them everything Zhou Qing had requested.

In the blink of an eye, half a day had quietly passed.

All the rare treasures on the list had been delivered. Zhou Qing checked them one by one, sent most of the teachers and students back, and then spread his hands to put all the items into his palm and into his inner world.

Upon witnessing this, the soul masters from Heaven Dou City were bewildered as to how Zhou Qing had managed to store these items without using a storage soul tool, and their hearts were filled with even greater fear.

But they also realized that Tian Dou had completely lost face at this moment!
Zhou Qing didn't care; he had already led the others and headed towards the Heaven Dou Royal Academy with Tang San...
