Chapter 220 The Butterfly Effect "Little Lord." It took nearly half a month to finally convince Emperor Xue Ye to replace the members of the Royal Fighting Team 2 with Xue Qinghe, the substitute of the Royal Fighting Team 1. As soon as Xue Qinghe returned to the study, he saw Snake Spear Douluo walking out of the nearby secret room. "Have you checked it out?" "The Xingluo Royal Family's Nether White Tiger Battle continues." Snake Spear Douluo reported truthfully, "Other situations, there are basically no changes, but this time the Xingluo Royal Team came to Tiandou Royal Academy for exchanges, and it seems that they changed their route halfway and passed through a small town called Notting City." Although Notting City is located in the Fasno Province of the Tiandou Empire, there are countless small towns like this, so Xue Qinghe naturally doesn't have much impression of it: "Is there anything special there?" "According to the records of the Spirit Hall, more than two hundred years ago, a Soul Saint walked out of a small village near the city of Nottingham." Snake Spear Douluo said. "That's it?" Just a Soul Saint, and a Soul Saint from more than two hundred years ago, Xue Qinghe naturally would not think that this was the main reason why the Xingluo Royal Team changed its route to that place. "What is the geographical location of Notting City?" Xue Qinghe guessed that Notting City might be a strategic location that had never been noticed by high-ranking officials and generals of Tiandou. The Xingluo Empire might be planning another route to invade the Tiandou Empire.
"It's located at the border of Tiandou and Xingluo, and is surrounded by hills and basins. It's not a strategic location. Even if the two empires go to war, the flames of war will hardly reach there." Snake Spear Douluo knew a little about military tactics. He shook his head and denied Xue Qinghe's guess. "That's strange. Why would the Xingluo Royal Team change their route and pass by there?" Xue Qinghe couldn't figure it out. "Rumor has it that soul bones appeared in Notting City. This may be related to this." Snake Spear said, "Besides that, Xiao Lang, the Lord of Notting City, has a good personal relationship with Darles, the Lord of Luoxing City in the Xingluo Empire. Perhaps there is some conspiracy between them." "Dalles?" Speaking of this person, Xue Qinghe had some impression of him. After all, he was once a noble in Xingluo City. Because he was ostracized, he came to a small town near the Tiandou border to serve as the city lord. The top leaders of the Tiandou Empire also sent people to collect information about him in order to prevent the Xingluo Empire from secretly planning anything related... But later they discovered that he seemed to be just an excluded and impoverished nobleman. "The guy who has a perverted hobby of sharing his wife and daughter with others?" Xue Qinghe recalled some information about Darles that he had seen before, his face frosty, "He was also very domineering. It is said that when he first took office, in order to crack down on the vendors who set up stalls in the city, he directly beheaded a country couple who had just delivered food into the city gate, as a warning to others?" Six years ago, the story of Darles beheading a country couple who had just arrived in the city was so widely circulated that spies recorded it and passed it on to the top leaders of Tiandou City. Xue Qinghe usually wouldn't deliberately remember such minor characters, but the thundering methods displayed by Darles when he first took office were much more powerful than those of many powerful people in Tiandou City. But she has no good feelings towards such people... "It's him." Snake Spear Douluo affirmed, "That guy must be unwilling to stay in Luoxing City, and has been secretly looking for opportunities. This time, he may be using Xiao Lang in Notting City, and when the Xingluo Royal Team came, they changed their route to go there. It is possible that this is just Zhong Dingxiu's next move to make the border of Tiandou unstable, create conflicts, and then accumulate reasons to invade Tiandou." The Xing Luo Empire has always had the ambition to unify the continent, and even has the corresponding military strength. If the Spirit Hall had not secretly created trouble within the Star Luo Empire, causing the Star Luo Empire's top leaders to be busy regulating domestic affairs, the Star Luo Empire would probably have already pointed its sword at the Tiandou Imperial City six years ago. Xue Qinghe knew this very well. As for the battle for the prince that was about to start in the Xing Luo Empire, the Spirit Hall actually wanted to obstruct it at the beginning, so as to make the Xing Luo Empire lose the opportunity to have a true "Netherworld White Tiger".
But after discovering Dai Mubai's incompetence, the Spirit Hall decided not to waste any more time on him. After all, Dai Mubai is a prince and lives in the palace. It would be several times more difficult for the Spirit Hall to interfere in the inner affairs of the Xingluo royal family than to interfere in the Tiandou royal family. "Do you need me to send someone to Notting City to investigate the specific situation?" Seeing Xue Qinghe fall into a long silence, Snake Spear Douluo suggested. "Okay, send someone to investigate, just in case." Xue Qinghe said. "As ordered." Snake Spear Douluo retreated. In the shadows, another middle-aged man with a slightly fatter figure came out and said to Xue Qinghe, "Young Master, Xue Xing secretly took Dugu Bo to check the body of Emperor Xue Ye. I'm afraid he has noticed something." "Emperor Xue Ye, even though he is old, his insight is still so sharp. But he would never have thought that my son is not his biological son." Xue Qinghe didn't care, but just said, "We can't rush this matter. Don't give him the drug for now. We'll do it later. By then, the dosage of the drug will need to be diluted again." "As for Dugu Bo, can he create an antidote?" The middle-aged man shook his head: "I heard from Ju Douluo that Dugu Bo's most powerful poison is his own green phosphorus snake venom. Although he is also proficient in various herbs and medicine, he is best at detoxifying snake venom. He pales in comparison to ordinary lead and mercury poisons, not to mention the mixed poison called colorful that incorporates various plant poisons, metal and stone poisons, insect poisons, etc.?" "Haotian Sect's ambitions are not small." Xue Qinghe sighed softly. This mixed poison originated from Yang Wushuang, who was born into one of the four former affiliated families of Haotian Sect: the Pozhi Clan. It was just because of the Tang Hao incident that the Haotian Sect closed its mountain and had to expel these four single-attribute affiliated families from the sect. Strength, agility, defense, and destruction. Each family has its own specialized skills: The Power Clan is powerful and good at forging; The Min clan is fast, can fly, and has the ability to detect; The defensive power of the Plate Armor Giant Rhino Martial Spirit of the Yu Clan is comparable to the Diamond Mammoth, one of the Lower Four Sects, and it is good at construction. The last one is the Po Yi clan, whose martial soul is the Po Soul Spear, which is the most suitable long weapon for galloping on the battlefield. Moreover, the people of this clan are also good at making medicine, especially Yang Wudi and Yang Wushuang, who are even better than Dugu Bo in terms of medicine and poison. From this we can see that the Haotian Sect had grand ambitions back then. Lenovo Haotian Sect supports the Xingluo Empire—— If it weren't for Tang Hao, even if the Spirit Hall was secretly interfering in the Xingluo Empire, Dai Tianran would probably have forced contact with the Haotian Sect and sent troops to Tiandou together, aiming for the goal of unifying the continent. "pity--" "The world is unpredictable..." At this point, Xue Qinghe's eyes were a little confused. If Tang Hao hadn't severely injured the former Pope of the Spirit Hall, causing him to die, the war between the two empires would have broken out within these six years, and he would not be able to control the current situation. However, the former Pope was his... Thinking of this, Xue Qinghe immediately cut off this thought, his eyes regained clarity, and he said to the middle-aged man behind him: "Cilitun, go down, and contact Ju Douluo by the way. They are old rivals, but they should not be mortal enemies who will never stop until one dies, right? Let him talk to Dugu Boduo and see if he can convince him." "Yes." The Thorny Porpoise Douluo agreed, but he did not have any expectations in his heart. Even though there is no mortal hatred between the two, when Poison Douluo does not use poison, he is always suppressed by Chrysanthemum Douluo. Even if there is no hatred, he has to fight to make it happen. There is no way that Poison Douluo can join the Spirit Hall! As for Titled Douluo like Poison Douluo who has no sect or family background, the Spirit Hall secretly holds the attitude of "If you don't use me, you will be killed by me".
The same is true for most other sects and families. Dugu Bo is still alive today only because the threat posed by his own Green Phosphorus Snake venom is too great. Once it spreads, it will be a natural disaster similar to a plague. If it cannot be killed in one blow, it will escape and then sneak into Wuhun City to release the Green Phosphorus Snake venom. No one can bear the consequences. Nowadays, in this Douluo Continent, all the major Titled Douluo belong to certain forces, and the Titled Douluo who can be relatively independent and do not really join any force, such as Dugu Bo, do not have to be extremely powerful in combat, but they must have the ability to be feared by others.
