Chapter 325 The Stalemate Between the Three Great Empires

Whether it was the Heaven Dou Empire, the Martial Soul Empire, or even the Star Luo Empire far away at Tianmen Pass, all three were now in an eerie silence. None of them continued fighting; instead, they arranged for their troops to be stationed silently.

In the Heaven Dou Empire, after the deaths of Emperor Xue Ye and Marshal Ge Long, the internal morale was unstable. Empress Xue Ke had only recently ascended to the throne and needed to stabilize the situation and win over the people.

Recently, Empress Xue Ke has been communicating a lot with Tang Xiao, Ning Fengzhi, and Lin Gong, and has been promising great benefits in an effort to gain the support of the three major sects.

Lin Gong and Yang Wudi came to see Yang Xiong several times. Yang Xiong only told them to deal with these matters as they saw fit, and to handle them in the usual way, unless it was a matter of life and death for the sect.

Yang Xiong has been establishing the Body Sect for many years, but he has not been meticulous in handling every little thing. Instead, he has established a relatively complete set of sect rules, including the specific direction of the sect's development.

Within the sect's rules, everyone should focus on cultivation and support the younger generation. Internal strife and bullying are strictly prohibited. There is also a clear division of benefits. These are the sect's ironclad rules, and Lin Gong, Yang Wudi, and others have grown accustomed to Yang Xiong's hands-off approach.

Moreover, the Body Sect has suffered considerable losses recently. Although no experts have perished, nearly half of the thousand Soul Masters brought from the sect have been killed or injured. As a result, Yang Wudi and Lin Gong have become much more cautious in their actions.

Another important point is that, as the controller of intelligence for the entire Heaven Dou Empire, Bai He would often communicate with Lin Gong and Yang Wudi as soon as possible to minimize the sect's losses and protect the safety of the sect's disciples.

Otherwise, given the fierce battles that have taken place during this period, the Body Sect would have suffered far more losses than this.

It should be noted that the Haotian Sect had a relatively small number of members, and it lost half of its ordinary disciples, as well as two titled Douluo.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School primarily focuses on support roles, with many Soul Masters wielding the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul positioned at the rear of the battlefield. In fact, the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's formation was located towards the back, yet even so, the losses still exceeded 50%.

The Heaven Dou Royal Family suffered a loss of nearly 70% of its Soul Masters, making it the team with the highest loss rate among all Soul Master teams.

Moreover, Yang Wudi and Lin Gong knew that Yang Xiong was injured, so they tried not to disturb him. After all, Yang Xiong was the mainstay of the entire sect, the backbone of the sect, and even the backbone of the entire Heavenly Dou Army.

Even Ning Rongrong complained to Yang Xiong that Empress Xue Ke had not only paid a huge price to win over the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but had also talked about their childhood friendship, wishing she could call Ning Rongrong her sister.

However, according to Ning Rongrong's analysis, Empress Xue Ke is extremely dependent on the Haotian Sect. She consults Tang Yuehua on many matters, big and small, which shows that she trusts Tang Yuehua, her teacher, very much.

After a series of orderly actions, the Heavenly Dou Empire's army gradually stabilized, unlike the chaos that followed the death of Emperor Xue Ye.

Yang Xiong used all his strength to heal his injuries. His body seemed to be surrounded by a red sphere of light. Within this sphere of light, the power of the Asura God and the power of the Angel God collided and dissolved each other continuously.

Given Yang Xiong's robust physique, healing his injuries shouldn't be too difficult. The main thing is to recover as quickly as possible and not leave any hidden dangers for himself.

Compared to the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire and the Spirit Empire are relatively more mysterious.

Since Bibi Dong returned to Wuhun City, the entire Wuhun Empire has fallen silent.

Currently, the Spirit Empire is openly led by Golden Crocodile Douluo and Qian Renxue. Qian Renxue is now the Angel God, holding an incomparably high position in the Spirit Empire and being the faith of everyone.

Unfortunately, Qian Renxue was also busy healing her injuries, while the Holy Maiden Hu Liena was trying her best to appease everyone. After all, changing commanders in the middle of battle is a major taboo, and many ordinary soul masters in the Spirit Empire are Bibi Dong's loyal followers.

The Star Luo Empire had been launching a fierce attack on Tianmen Pass, but after news of Qian Renxue's ascension to godhood reached the Star Luo Empire, the Star Luo Empire's army retreated thirty kilometers and ceased all interference with Tianmen Pass.

The current situation is beyond Xingluo Dali's control. Even though the Xingluo Emperor and Empress are powerful, they dare not provoke the only level 100 True God in the world.

Since Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong were crippled, Yu Xiaogang's status in the Heaven Dou Empire has plummeted, and he is now only recuperating in his room.

Both Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong looked decades older.

Originally, Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong were both over fifty years old. If it weren't for the nourishment of their soul power, they would have been considered old men long ago.

Now that their martial souls have been destroyed, they no longer have any soul power, which is why they look quite old.

Yu Xiaogang's hair was completely white, and he seemed to have lost all strength. He had always lacked exercise, spending his time reading and studying, and now he looked more like a frail old man with muscular arms and abs. Liu Erlong was in slightly better shape, but having lost her martial spirit and soul power, she no longer resembled the beautiful middle-aged woman she once was; her hair was now streaked with white, making her appear naturally aged.

Empress Xue Ke was far too busy. Although she sent a lot of nourishing medicines and even met with Yu Xiaogang in person, unfortunately, she was of no help to Yu Xiaogang with her strength.

Flander silently took care of Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong, and seeing them like this, he was heartbroken.

The Golden Iron Triangle has been famous in Douluo Continent for decades. The three of them traveled the world together, experiencing all kinds of life and death. Their bond is extremely deep, and they can be said to be true brothers who have been through thick and thin together.

Flander always regarded Yu Xiaogang as his best brother and always loved Liu Erlong the most. He had to leave back then so that the two of them could be together.

Unfortunately, both of them are now disabled, and the golden trio will no longer exist.

Since being crippled, Yu Xiaogang has fallen silent, losing his former arrogance and his determination to seek revenge.

As Qian Renxue said, all her greatest support in this life was gone. Her family was wiped out, and her father, who verbally rejected her but secretly protected her, was gone. And one of the reasons her father was killed was because of her.

Bibi Dong returned to Wuhun City, and the boy's affection for her disappeared, as did his hatred.

His wife, Liu Erlong, who had been with him for so many years, was also ruined.

From this day forward, all her pride has been crushed. Even her years of research on Soul Masters were nothing more than a summary of the experiences of her predecessors, merely a borrowing of knowledge from the Spirit Hall and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. Qian Renxue has ripped away her last fig leaf.

Although Liu Erlong herself had her martial soul destroyed and went from a dignified Soul Douluo to an ordinary Soul Master, she still felt extremely sorry for Yu Xiaogang when she saw his old and dejected appearance.

"Xiao Gang, you must pull yourself together. Don't forget the hatred of our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. Don't forget that you are a world-renowned master. Even if your martial soul is destroyed, it will not affect your many years of research and contributions."

Yu Xiaogang shook his head helplessly: "Erlong, I know my current situation better than you do. At my age, I'm afraid I won't live for many more years."

“Qian Renxue is right. My father died because of me. The knowledge I published affected the interests of too many people, which is why I was expelled from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and even ostracized by all Soul Master families back then.”

"Back then, the Spirit Hall took me in and even made me an elder of the Spirit Hall, but I never made any contribution to the Spirit Hall, and I even hurt the woman who once loved me the most."

"As Qian Renxue said, everyone has the right to condemn the Spirit Empire, but I alone do not. I hurt Bibi Dong, and I hurt you. From beginning to end, I was just a coward, a coward who only knew how to run away."

Liu Erlong quickly interjected, "Xiao Gang, it's not like that. You are the strongest man in the world. Even if you are despised by the world, you still want to spread that knowledge. For ordinary soul masters, it is because of your knowledge that they can develop better."

"Don't forget Shrek Academy. It's the culmination of the three of our efforts. For so many years, I've run Shrek Academy and only admit commoners as disciples. I want to prove to the world that you were right back then, and I want the world to recognize you."

"Besides, even if your martial spirit is destroyed, with your knowledge, I don't believe there's no way to restore it."

Yu Xiaogang's lips curled into a bitter smile: "Erlong, you don't need to comfort me anymore. Qian Renxue is a god, and she won't give me any chance to recover. In this world, apart from a god, there is probably no way for me to recover my martial spirit."

Liu Erlong said, "Xiao Gang, don't forget that although Qian Renxue is powerful, she is not invincible. Yang Xiong can contend with her. With Yang Xiong's knowledge, he should have a way to help you recover."

Yu Xiaogang shook his head: "Erlong, there's no chance. Although Yang Xiong is strong, he is just an ordinary soul master after all. He probably can't reach the level of a god. Besides, I haven't had any communication with Yang Xiong. He can't possibly do too much for me, especially at this critical moment, with Qian Renxue still eyeing me covetously."

Liu Erlong's eyes suddenly lit up as if he had thought of something: "Xiao Gang, don't forget, Xiao San has also achieved the inheritance of a god. As long as Xiao San becomes a god, given what you have done for him, he will definitely help you reshape your martial soul."

Yu Xiaogang froze, a glimmer of hope appearing in his eyes, but it quickly faded away.

“Xiao San, Xiao San has had such a hard life. His father was killed by Qian Renxue, and his mother was forced to her death by the Spirit Hall. Qian Renxue sees him as a thorn in her side. Even if he becomes a god, he will still have to face Qian Renxue’s attacks. I can’t let Xiao San sacrifice too much for me.”
