Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 1111 Cooperation
Seeking common ground while reserving differences?

Bibi Dong was taken aback.

Zhou Qing continued, "Forcibly controlling people's thoughts like Xingluo is the worst option. We will not interfere with people's freedom of thought."

Just like the students trained by our college of education, many of them have also found loopholes and shortcomings in it.

Firstly, if they are willing, they can remind us to correct our mistakes.

Secondly, it can also help us identify members who dare to abuse their authority for personal gain and oppress others.

Thirdly, as long as the spirit is passed on, even without us, those who have been oppressed and deceived will eventually be led by someone to resist the Red Society, which has deviated from our original intentions and is unable to keep up with the times.

Xue Qinghe opened his mouth wide, his eyes looking strange, and said, "This is the first time I've ever seen a ruler expect his subjects to rebel against his rule."

"Well, I'm not the ruler... but I'm certainly looking forward to it." Zhou Qing smiled slightly, picked up his teacup, and cleared his throat. "If there isn't even the slightest problem at the beginning of a nation's establishment, then there's a real problem."

Cultivation follows the same principle; it requires constantly resolving various problems, both large and small, encountered when the soul power circulates within the body. This process also involves understanding the human body.

You can't just dig out the meridians and flesh of a blocked area when your soul power is circulating in your body, can you?
If the affected area is small, it's alright; the flesh can grow back, it'll just leave a scar. But if it's large, let alone losing an arm or a leg, even having a fingernail pulled out would break my heart.

Hearing these pointed words, Bibi Dong felt a headache coming on, but she didn't want to think about it too much. She simply said, "The way of governing a country is indeed different between my Martial Soul Empire and the Crimson Flower Kingdom. We may learn from each other, but we will not copy them and cut off their limbs like the Star Luo Empire did... Let's get down to business."

Having attained the Rakshasa Dharma body and cleansed my soul, giving my evil thoughts and resentments a place to reside, and having refined the Rakshasa Dharma form, I was already capable of inheriting the divine position.

However, after becoming a god, one is not allowed to interfere in the human world... In addition, I wanted to use a small plan to achieve a big goal, to draw on the faith of the masses, and to elevate my divine position from that of a chief god to that of a god-king, which is why I was delayed for so long.

Now that the God Realm has severed ties with Douluo Star, I can act more boldly.

Zhou Qing nodded, put down his teacup, and said, "Just don't let it affect our Chihua."

Bibi Dong's expression darkened: "Is cooperation possible?"

"content."

"After I become a god, we will destroy Star Luo and kill Tang Chen together."

"The former has no legitimate reason to act; the latter should indeed be held responsible for his crime of killing 600,000 people." Zhou Qing only indicated that they could target Tang Chen.

Star Luo Empire?

They do not invade Chihua, so Chihua does not interfere.

Unify the continent...
To reiterate, the Red Society has too few members, it's not the right time, and besides, he doesn't want to be emperor, otherwise he wouldn't be much different from the original Heavenly Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire.

The Douluo Continent is roughly the size of the Eurasian continent in the previous life. Before productivity is further improved, it would be impossible to fully manage it immediately after it is conquered.

It's impossible for Romantina to cooperate with him in using his psychic sphere clone to take control of the entire continent, right?
He hasn't reached the primordial spirit realm where he can manifest countless clones yet!

Furthermore.

The Crimson Flower Kingdom doesn't need any enfeoffment for "reclamation." The writing and language on the continent are already unified, so the foundation for unifying the continent already exists. The key is what policies to implement after unification to ensure that it will not split again.

Pure force is absolutely not enough.

The current policy of the Red Flower Kingdom is to continuously build and improve its framework while also encouraging people to have children and increase the population.

With enough people, great things can be accomplished!
Only with a larger population can we gradually expand outwards... no, we should gradually integrate the other kingdoms into Crimson Flower.

“Then let’s talk about Tang Chen.” Bibi Dong didn’t think Zhou Qing would agree to cooperate with the Spirit Empire to attack the Star Luo Empire. Going to Seagod Island, he could find a reason to “pioneering” or “explore”, or even propose the absurd excuse of “killing the Seagod and rescuing Poseidon”. In other words, they were not on the same side as the gods.

But it is truly unacceptable to infringe upon the sovereignty of an empire without cause.

Those who are of the Red Society, if they have convictions, may be cynical, easygoing and quiet, and even swindle and deceive, but they will never do anything to deceive themselves.

“I actually sensed the spatial fluctuations before, as if something had fallen into our world, but not on Douluo Continent, but on another continent.” Bibi Dong said solemnly, “That should be a divine artifact. Tang Chen must have sensed it as well.”

“That’s the weapon of the extraterrestrial demon that fought Tang Chen. In terms of quality, it’s a level higher than your Rakshasa Demon Scythe,” Zhou Qing said.

This indirectly reveals their involvement in the rupture of the spatial passage between the God Realm and Douluo Star.

"You do not want?"

Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes, surprised by Zhou Qing's composure, as he didn't even care about the super artifact.

"It's best to have it, but it doesn't matter if you don't."

Zhou Qing casually remarked, "Compared to the super artifacts, the plants, animals, soul beasts, mines, and population of the other continent are the real resources."

As for divine artifacts and super divine artifacts, for Zhou Qing and others, only their materials and characteristics are worth studying.

“In that case, we can work together to develop the maritime industry and explore another continent.” Bibi Dong crossed her legs and casually offered her bargaining chip, saying, “The Crimson Society can open branches throughout the Spirit Empire, and my Spirit Hall only needs 30% of the profits. How about it?”

"can."

Zhou Qing agreed.

"So happy?"

Bibi Dong thought Zhou Qing would still doubt whether the conditions she offered were a trap, and that she would have to spend a lot of time explaining, but she didn't expect that the other party would not hesitate at all.

"Then I'll lower the price; how about the Spirit Hall taking 10%?"

Zhou Qing was joking.

Although Zhou Qing hadn't had much contact with Bibi Dong, he understood her well. She didn't care about power. Now that the God Realm was separated from Douluo Star, she hoped to use this gap to gather faith and achieve the position of Rakshasa God King—the chaos within the Spirit Empire had already exhausted her both physically and mentally!

It's better to borrow a hen to lay eggs.

Furthermore, instead of worrying about the future of the Spirit Empire being controlled by the Crimson Society, we should think about how to transcend worldly affairs.

Since truly becoming emperor, Bibi Dong realized that the days when she could focus solely on cultivation were getting further and further away from her... In the Spirit Hall, she was a qualified pope who only needed to remain powerful, beautiful, and noble. However, in the Spirit Empire, during her reign, chaos reigned throughout the country, which was suppressed by the Spirit Legion with violence, causing widespread fear and unease—she was a complete tyrant!
Only Hu Liena and a few others have some ability and are painstakingly working to restore order...

But it's just a drop in the ocean.

In addition, to develop the ocean, it is necessary to learn about the Red Society, after all, the overlords of the ocean, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, Demon Whale Queen, and Blue Buddha, are under the command of Zhou Qing and Ariel.

Although the three demonic whales no longer actively attack ships at sea, it's still best to cooperate with the Crimson Society just in case...
"Thirty percent."

Hearing Zhou Qing try to lower the price, Bibi Dong turned hostile and refused to budge.

"In that case, it's a pleasure to cooperate."

Zhou Qing reached out and shook hands with Bibi Dong, thus setting the tone for cooperation.
