Chapter 18 The Secrets of the Sun and Moon, the Wisdom of King Na'er!
Ten thousand years ago, the Douluo Continent was dominated by four great empires, with Shrek Academy holding a superior position.
As soul guidance technology developed, the Sun Moon Empire gradually became stronger than the original three great empires. Just then, a powerful and ambitious ruler named Xu Tianran emerged in the Sun Moon Empire, and thus launched a war against the original three great empires.
As a result, the Douling Empire was the first to be destroyed by the blitzkrieg, followed closely by the Tianhun Empire, and in the end, only the Xingluo Empire was left struggling to survive.
But in the end, the most dramatic twist is that the child born to Xu Tianran by Ju Zi, the then-commander of the Sun Moon Empire and the God of War Empress, was not of the Sun Moon royal bloodline, but was the child of Huo Yuhao, the founder of the Spirit Pagoda.
In the end, Huo Yuhao turned the tide and the Sun Moon Empire withdrew its troops. However, by then Xu Tianran had already died, and Huo Yuhao's child had already been made crown prince. Ju Zi had also firmly controlled the military power of the Sun Moon Empire.
"Haha, you can't say that. When Xu Tianran, the emperor of the Sun Moon Empire, ascended to the throne, he killed many of his own brothers. It's only natural that a royal coup would occur later."
Leng Yaozhu shook her head slightly and chuckled softly.
Upon hearing this, Mu Ye and Han Tianyi also looked somewhat saddened. Back then, every emperor of the Sun Moon Empire had been chosen through bloodshed, and killing brothers had almost become a traditional custom.
Later, because the Crown Prince of Sun Moon was Huo Yuhao's child, and because Shrek Academy, which was related to Huo Yuhao, the Tang Sect, which was gradually rising, and for various other inexplicable reasons, the real Sun Moon royal family gradually disappeared from the public eye.
Even after the Sun Moon Empire unified the Douluo Continent and changed to a federal system, the Xu family members rarely appeared. The three top-tier martial souls they inherited gradually declined. As for the reason, the major powers that are now in power in the Federation all know it in their hearts.
"But what is your intention in bringing this up now, Tower Master Leng?"
Makino's eyes revealed a probing look, and he asked in a deep voice.
"As I said before, I have no ill intentions. The grudges from ten thousand years ago do not affect the present. Your sect is in dire need of rebuilding, and I am willing to provide you with assistance. I hope that in the future, when the Body Sect becomes strong, it can form an alliance with my Phoenix Clan."
After a moment's consideration, Leng Yaozhu laid out her thoughts. Their Phoenix Clan seemed powerful now, but there was no leader among the new generation, and her sister…
Based on Jiang Xiu's talent, Leng Yaozhu wanted to invest in him in advance. After all, the world is not just about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and social interactions. Moreover, nowadays, an individual's strength can indeed surpass many things.
Even if the investment fails, with the current power of her Phoenix Clan, it will only be a drop in the ocean.
"Okay, it's a deal."
After thinking it over, Han Tianyi and Mu Ye exchanged a glance and nodded in agreement.
Their main sect is currently penniless, so they can't possibly lose money.
"Oh, right, Master Leng, I forgot to tell you, I am just one of Xiao Xiu's masters, while his master is Dong Zi'an, the commander of the Western Legion."
Finally, perhaps feeling that the current size of the Body Sect was insufficient, Mu Ye directly brought up Dong Zi'an.
"Oh? It seems the Phoenix Clan will indeed gain a powerful ally in the future."
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Leng Yaozhu's beautiful eyes.
The ancient family, which now holds power in the Spirit Pagoda, has been secretly weakening her power as the deputy tower master, and Qian Gu Dongfeng is plotting against her.
The reason why the Qian Gu family is so powerful is not only because there are many strong people in their own clan, but also because they have many allies in the Federation. If they can befriend Jiang Xiu, they might be able to win over the behemoth that is the Western Legion.
"Jiang Xiu, you are truly a lucky star to this tower master."
Leng Yaozhu's red lips curled into a cold, beautiful smile as she murmured to herself.
"To show our sincerity, the Phoenix Clan has its own street in Shrek City, which we are now giving away to the Body Sect for free. You can establish your own sect headquarters there."
Having made his decision, the decisive Leng Yaozhu immediately spoke, taking out a pre-prepared contract and handing it to Mu Ye.
It was as if she had already anticipated what would happen today.
"Lord Leng, you are a man of principle."
Makino nodded slightly, accepted the contract, and praised it.
Leng Yaozhu possesses both great courage and strength to become the leader of the Phoenix Clan.
Seeing that the dust had settled, Han Tianyi was also slightly pleased, as if the heavens were favoring their Body Sect. Since Jiang Xiu arrived, everything had been developing in a positive direction.
"Now that this matter is settled, let's see how Xiaoxiu and Na'er perform."
Han Tianyi pointed to the soul guidance screen on the wall and reminded him.
"Right, judging from Xiaoxiu and Na'er's performance, I wonder what Na'er's first spirit is?"
"She saw Xiaoxiu fuse with the Unyielding Soul yesterday and insisted on trying it herself, so she fused with one. She's such a worry."
Leng Yaozhu seemed to be complaining, but her tone was full of laughter and a hint of arrogance, as if to say that Na'er was no worse than Jiang Xiu.
"Na'er... what a good girl."
Looking at the graceful Na'er on the screen, an idea popped into Mu Ye's mind, and his heart immediately stirred.
……
Inside the Primary Ascension Platform.
Ancient trees reach for the sky, lush and verdant everywhere, the sky is a clear blue, the fresh air is invigorating, and the ethereal chirping of birds can be heard from afar from time to time.
Just then, the space rippled slightly, and Na'er and Jiang Xiu appeared.
"Let's go, let's begin our journey of advancement."
Na'er's beautiful eyes lit up, and with a wave of her hand, endless silver light gathered, forming a slender silver-white spear. The spear was covered with strange dragon patterns, and its end had a touch of purple. The moment it appeared, the surrounding elemental fluctuations rippled.
"Is this the divine weapon, the Silver Dragon Spear?"
Jiang Xiu's eyes narrowed, and he secretly observed that the Golden Dragon Spear was in Tang Wulin's hands, while the Silver Dragon Spear was in Na'er's hands.
"Okay, let's go."
Jiang Xiu summoned the Shadow King, who followed beside him, and then headed towards the forest ahead.
In the initial Spirit Ascension Platform, after killing a soul beast, one-tenth of the soul beast's energy will be used to increase the age of the soul ring. For example, if Jiang Xiu kills a hundred-year-old soul beast, then Jiang Xiu's first soul ring will increase in age by ten years.
"Xiao Xiu, what are your thoughts on the soul beast race?"
Na'er walked lightly beside Jiang Xiu, pointing to a ten-year-old fancy squirrel that appeared in front of them and hinting at something.
With her own strength, it would be very difficult for her to revive the soul beasts in the human world, so she needed helpers, and Jiang Xiu in front of her felt great.
Young and inexperienced, with the extraordinary wisdom of Queen Na'er, she could definitely abduct him.
"What do you mean 'Little Xiu'? Call him Brother Xiu."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiu's lips twitched, his handsome face hardened, and he spoke in a serious tone.
Although he didn't know what Na'er, the little silver dragon king, wanted to do, it seemed that she definitely had something on her mind, after all, she practically had "come to my bowl" written all over her little face.
"Hugh?!"
Upon hearing this, Na'er's beautiful eyes widened instantly. She was the Silver Dragon King, the ruler of all soul beasts, a powerful figure who led soul beasts to revival! And now she was being asked to call him "brother" by a human child? How could this be allowed!
But before Na'er could speak, the howls of wolves rang out all around them. A pack of ferocious Gale Wolves was attacking them from a distance, exuding a murderous aura. The pack consisted of nearly thirty wolves, some of which were a hundred years old and some were ten years old.
"Hey! See those Gale Wolves? Whoever kills more will be the boss from now on, how about it?"
Na'er's eyes lit up, and she brandished her spear.
"OK."
Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered, a hint of a smile flashing across them. He wondered what kind of expression Gu Yue would have if he came to the Spirit Transmission Platform in the future and found that Na'er had become his little brother.
Moreover, Gu Yue and Na'er are also part of Jiang Xiu's future plans, as they are huge helpers in the future.
"Whoosh!"
Jiang Xiu was enveloped in dark power, and he instantly moved forward with the Shadow Monarch.
"Hmph, you human brat, you'll be under Queen Na'er's command in the future."
Na'er murmured to herself, then swept her spear horizontally, following closely behind.
"The advantage is in my hands in this bet!"
