Douluo Jueshi: Who made him a soul mentor!

Chapter 104 Your Majesty, Spare My Life!
Zhongli Wu said to Ye Xishui, "Mother, Wang Chen is now staying in the powerful and privileged area with strict security and many powerful people. It's hard to find an opportunity to attack him."

Ye Xishui's eyes were sharp. "Can he stay in Mingdu forever? Send strong men who are good at hiding their bodies to monitor him. When he reaches a bottleneck and leaves Mingdu, and goes to the soul beast gathering place to hunt soul beasts and add soul rings, then eliminate him."

Ye Xishui's voice was cold and firm, and she obviously felt greatly threatened by Wang Chen's existence.

As the Supreme Leader of the Holy Spirit Church, she was well aware of the potential threat posed by a young man with such terrifying talent.

Especially since Wang Chen has already demonstrated the ability to kill a Titled Douluo, if he is allowed to continue growing.

In the future, if the power balance between the Sun-Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Church becomes unbalanced, the Holy Spirit Church will inevitably be besieged and incorporated by the Sun-Moon Empire.

Ye Xishui knew Xu Jing very well. That man had a strong desire for control and had always had ulterior motives towards the Holy Spirit Cult, which was beyond his control and had the ability to threaten the Sun-Moon Empire.

The reason why they could live in peace was not because Xu Jing didn't want to, but because Xu Jing was afraid of the strength of her Holy Spirit Church and didn't want to suffer losses on both sides. Otherwise, he would have turned against her long ago.

There can't be two tigers in one mountain, and I won't allow others to snore beside my bed.

Ye Xishui sneered, "Emperor, this kind of thing will treat you well when it needs you. When it doesn't need you and thinks you are a threat, and you are unable to resist, then it is the day of your death."

Therefore, it is necessary to ensure a balance of strength, otherwise...

Ye Xishui looked at Long Xiaoyao, who had been silent, and asked, "Xiaoyao, what do you think?"

After a moment's silence, Long Xiaoyao said, "Wang Chen's talent is truly astonishing, especially now that he has been conferred the title of Duke and entered the Imperial Court. His status is truly extraordinary. If we were to attack him, I'm afraid it would draw Xu Jing's full-force revenge."

Ye Xishui snorted coldly, his tone filled with disdain: "Revenge? Although the Sun Moon Empire is powerful, we, the Holy Spirit Church, are not vegetarians.

The Holy Spirit Church has two Extreme Douluos, you and me, in charge. Do they dare to act rashly?

As long as Wang Chen dies, even if the Sun-Moon Empire wants to retaliate, it will have to consider the pros and cons.

Could it be that Xu Jing and Kong Deming would go to war with my Holy Spirit Church over a dead man, regardless of the serious damage done to the Sun Moon Empire?"

Long Xiaoyao sighed, knowing that Ye Xishui had made up her mind, and said no more.

Although he felt sorry for Wang Chen's talent, who made his beloved Ye Xishui the supreme leader of the Holy Spirit Sect and an evil soul master?
When Long Xiaoyao thought about how he had ruined Ye Xishui's innocence and the harm he had caused her, he no longer felt any regrets.

Seeing that Long Xiaoyao stopped talking, Ye Xishui continued to instruct Zhongli Wu, "Wang Chen is quite powerful, and it is difficult for the elders of the Holy Spirit Church to monitor him, so you should not send the elders of the Holy Spirit Church to monitor Wang Chen anymore.

Leave the task of eliminating Wang Chen to me. I will dispatch the priests in the worship hall who are good at concealment, assassination, and surveillance to monitor Wang Chen.

You will continue to be responsible for connecting with Xu Tianran and secretly supporting that useless prince to become emperor. Remember, you must not provide support openly.

Otherwise, if Xu Jing finds out, the investment will be wasted. Although Xu Jing is in poor health, he can still hold on for a few years. He still needs to be cautious when operating in Mingdu.

Zhongli Wu nodded and said respectfully, "Don't worry, mother. I understand."

Ye Xishui waved his hand to signal Zhongli Wu that he could leave.

After Zhongli Wu left, only Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao were left in the room.

Ye Xishui looked at Long Xiaoyao, her voice becoming a bit softer. "Xiaoyao, have the Dark Spirit Douluo from the Worship Hall monitor Wang Chen. Once Wang Chen leaves Mingdu, have him contact the experts from the Xishui League and eliminate him."

In the Holy Spirit Church, the soul masters of the Offering Hall are the most powerful. Among them, Long Xiaoyao is the head of the Offering Hall and the leader of the Offering Hall.

Below Long Xiaoyao, there are eleven other worshippers, six of whom are Super Douluo. (In the original novel, Zhang Peng, the ninety-sixth-level Scorpion Tiger Douluo, is not even among the top five in the worship hall.)
These worshippers have an extraordinary status in the Holy Spirit Church, and even Zhongli Wu, the leader of the Holy Spirit Church, cannot command them.

Because the worshippers in these halls were not trained by the Holy Spirit Church since childhood, and they are not even evil soul masters.

Most of these worshippers are followers of Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao. They only listen to Long Xiaoyao and do not listen to Ye Xishui. They will not help the Holy Spirit Church to do evil.

Some of the worshippers were extremely hostile to the evil spirit masters of the Holy Spirit Church and hated them. It was only because of Long Xiaoyao that they joined the Holy Spirit Church and became worshippers in the worship hall.

Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao is a level 99 Extreme Douluo. He has been on the Douluo Continent for a long time. Although he has not established any power, he has many followers.

Therefore, if Ye Xishui wanted to command the people in the Worship Hall to do something, he had to instruct Long Xiaoyao first.

Long Xiaoyao's heart was tied to Ye Xishui, so naturally he would obey her in everything she said.

When Long Xiaoyao heard Ye Xishui's request, he nodded in agreement without hesitation. If it meant helping Ye Xishui do something that was against the will of heaven and earth.

He would hesitate and shake his head when it came to killing unarmed civilians, but he naturally wouldn't hesitate when it came to monitoring Wang Chen.

Seeing that Long Xiaoyao was still obedient to her, Ye Xishui's despicable heart was filled with joy.

In her youth, Ye Xishui was the Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult. Under the orders of Zhongli Laogui (Zhongli Wu's father and the previous leader of the Holy Spirit Cult), she approached Moon En and Long Xiaoyao, and then made both Moon En and Long Xiaoyao fall in love with her.

Then she pretended to be with Moon and became his girlfriend.

Then she planned to seduce Long Xiaoyao into bed, but was caught in the act by Moon En, which led to the breakdown of the relationship between Moon En and Long Xiaoyao and they no longer had any contact with each other.

Since then, Long Xiaoyao felt guilty towards Ye Xishui, thinking that he had hurt Ye Xishui and his good brother Moon.

From then on, Long Xiaoyao became Ye Xishui's loyal lackey, accompanying Ye Xishui to protect her.

Ye Xishui thought to himself, "Dark Spirit Douluo's soul power is as high as level ninety-five, and he has received Xiaoyao's guidance, so he is very powerful.

Wuhun is especially adept at hiding at night. With him watching Wang Chen, I think nothing will go wrong."

After receiving Ye Xishui's instructions, Long Xiaoyao immediately went to the worship hall.

A moment later, in the Holy Spirit Church, the Worship Hall, the main hall where the five worshippers of Dark Spirit Douluo were located.

Dark Spirit Douluo Shen Kang is a handsome middle-aged man with long black hair, thick eyebrows, big eyes, regular facial features, and an imposing aura.

Shen Kang saluted Long Xiaoyao and said, "Teacher."

Long Xiaoyao looked at Shen Kang and saw that his aura was deep and harmonious with the surrounding world. He nodded and said, "Yes, you have mastered the state of unity between man and nature.

If you want to take a step further and break through to level ninety-six, in addition to accumulating soul power, it is more important to deepen your mastery of the martial soul."

Then, Long Xiaoyao gave Shen Kang some instructions before handing Ye Xishui's instructions to Shen Kang.

Shen Kang watched Long Xiaoyao leave and thought to himself, "Spying on Wang Chen? Humph, it's probably about that bitch Ye Xishui again."

Shen Kang's martial soul, the Dark Spirit, has dark attributes, which are consistent with the attributes of the Dark Holy Dragon Long Xiaoyao's martial soul. Therefore, he was accidentally appreciated and guided by Long Xiaoyao who was traveling around the continent, and he had a teacher-student relationship with Long Xiaoyao.

Shen Kang really couldn't understand why the teacher wanted to get involved with Ye Xishui, that evil bitch who had committed countless evil deeds.

He and several others had tried to dissuade him before, but it was of no use no matter what they said, so they stopped trying to dissuade him now.

Shen Kang really didn't want to do anything about Ye Xishui, but it was Long Xiaoyao's words after all.

"Forget it, just consider it as repaying the teacher's kindness."

Shen Kang turned into a black shadow and disappeared from the spot.

In the evening, in the palace, in the study.

Xu Jing sat on a chair, looking at an old man in a black robe, and asked, "Have you found out which prince is colluding with the Holy Spirit Church?"

Xu Jing was very dissatisfied with the Holy Spirit Church's blatant killing in Mingdu.

The people of the Holy Spirit Church dare to attack the Wang family in Mingdu now, and they may even dare to attack his palace in the future.

Such a heinous act must be deterred by thunder and lightning, otherwise, in the future, everyone will regard the majesty of the Sun and Moon Empire as nothing.

In the past two days, Xu Jing not only sent people to crack down on the Xishui League, an affiliated force of the Holy Spirit Church in Mingdu, but also sent people to investigate which prince was colluding with the Holy Spirit Church.

"I am incompetent and have not been able to find evidence that the prince is colluding with the Holy Spirit Church. Please punish me, Your Majesty." The old man with the cultivation level of a Titled Douluo knelt on one knee and bowed his head in salute.

The leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, Zhongli Wu, is an evil soul master with super Douluo cultivation and is incredibly powerful. He and Xu Tianran have always been in secret contact, and Zhongli Wu has never used the Holy Spirit Cult's material resources to assist Xu Tianran, so naturally there is no evidence.

Xu Jing put his arm on the armrest of the chair and said calmly and nonchalantly, "Get up."

"Yes, Your Majesty." After the old man stood up, he looked at his nose and his heart, quietly waiting for the emperor's instructions.

Xu Jing waved his hand to signal the old man that he could leave. The old man bowed to the emperor and left the study.

Xu Jing's eyes were deep. He actually had some guesses in his mind about which prince was colluding with the Holy Spirit Church. It could be either the eldest prince Xu Tianran or the third prince Xu Tianshi. Both of them could be possible.

Originally, Xu Jing planned to have someone check to see who it was, but to his surprise, the person was actually hidden quite well and no direct evidence was found.

In that case, there is no need to look for one anymore. Eliminate all the candidates for the crown prince and just let the second son Xu Tianyu be the crown prince.

As the emperor, Xu Jing holds great power, so just having suspicion is enough.

The evidence was found by others and shown to him by his ministers to prove their innocence and prevent him from slapping him.

Instead, he, the emperor, had to look for evidence to prove whether the minister was wrong or not.

If no one found it, he would not waste any more time. He had sent a strong man to investigate before, just because he did not want his innocent son to suffer any injustice.

If you really suffer some injustice, just bear with it.

Xu Jing thought to himself, "It's time to decide on the position of Crown Prince.

The Wang family is a close supporter of the second son Xu Tianyu, so Wang Chen is naturally close to the second son.

After Wang Chen and Tian Zhen got married, their relationship became even closer...

If another prince ascended to the throne, it would inevitably create a rift with the Wang family who supported the second prince...

If this leads to a bad relationship between Wang Chen and the new emperor, it would be bad."

After careful consideration and weighing the pros and cons, Xu Jing decided to make the second prince Xu Tianyu the crown prince and inherit his throne.

After Xu Jing decided to let his second son inherit his throne, he said, "Come here, draft an edict for me!"

Xu Jing's voice echoed in the study, and the young eunuchs immediately took action to prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

Xu Jing pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "The Second Prince, Xu Tianyu, possesses both talent and virtue, and possesses a righteous character. He has won my heart. I have appointed him Crown Prince to succeed the throne. I hope he will diligently govern the country and live up to my expectations. I decree this."

The eunuch in charge quickly wrote the imperial edict. Xu Jing took it, checked it carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he stamped it with the imperial seal.

Xu Jing handed the imperial edict to the attendant who was protecting him closely and was wearing the robes of the imperial court, and ordered: "Announce it to the world. The grand ceremony will be held in three days."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The attendant took the imperial edict respectfully and immediately turned around to issue it.

Just now.

"Cough, cough, cough." Xu Jing's face flushed, he covered his mouth and coughed violently twice.

"Your Majesty!" The two attendants who were protecting Xu Jing closely hurriedly supported Xu Jing, their faces full of worry.

Xu Jing slowly released the hand that was covering his mouth, and looked at the blood on his palm, his eyes becoming colder.

His body is getting worse and worse...

One of the two attendants went to call the imperial physician, while the other took out the elixir and fed it to Xu Jing.

Seeing this, the ordinary eunuchs and palace maids around all knelt on the ground, lowered their heads, looked at each other with fear, trembled, and dared not even breathe.

These eunuchs and palace maids were all well aware that the emperor's physical condition was a secret. If they saw the emperor vomiting blood, they would most likely be silenced.

When it comes to life and death, who wouldn’t be afraid?
Xu Jing looked at the trembling eunuchs and palace maids and said slowly, "It's all been dealt with."

"Your Majesty, spare my life!!"

"Your Majesty, spare my life!!"

The eyes of the Titled Douluo attendant narrowed, and in an instant, all the eunuchs and palace maids present disappeared without leaving even a drop of blood.

Xu Jing sat in a chair, his eyes deep. There was still enough time, enough for him to arrange everything calmly.

Xu Jing instructed the attendant beside him, "Please ask Master Kong to come over."

...........................

At the same time, the Wang family.

Wang Chen sat on the sofa, with two stunning beauties, Juzi and Ye Guyi, behind him. One was massaging his shoulders, and the other was rubbing his legs. Wang Chen felt so comfortable that his brows relaxed and his eyes narrowed.

During the day, he got to know Ye Yulin and several other priests and learned about the palace's worship hall.

It was discovered that the palace offering hall was divided into two parts.

Some of them are the top ninth-level soul mentor researchers in the Sun-Moon Empire. Their main task is to work with Kong Deming to conduct cutting-edge scientific research in the Sun-Moon Empire.

On weekdays, when they were not attending court and had nothing else to do, the emperor would not disturb them unless it was absolutely necessary.

The other part was to obey the emperor's orders and serve him.

Wang Chen thought to himself, "Joining the Palace Worship Hall, I can get Kong Deming's guidance. I'm really curious about what powerful skills Kong Deming has..."
