Chapter 245 The Unknown Darkness of the Tiandou Imperial Family and Emperor Xueye
On the way back to Tiandou Imperial City, Luo Ling couldn't help but think of the plot of Dou Er many years later.

At that time, evil soul masters were already rampant, and there was even a sect called the Holy Spirit Church, where the evil soul masters were even more violent and cruel.

They do not have a safe method of training like the Blood Demon Ritual, and they have developed into a terrifying existence relying solely on the characteristics of their martial spirits.

But now Luo Ling released the Blood Demon Ritual.

Luo Ling's eyes became deep. He could foresee that if the Blood Demon Ritual really spread, the entire Douluo Continent would be in turmoil.

Killing, death, and evil may become the norm.

Because if you are not evil, you will become a sacrifice to evil.

But these have nothing to do with him, he is not a native of Douluo Continent.

And before the world is destroyed, he will become a god.

Not a god from the divine world, but a real god.

……

The Tiandou Imperial City has been in a precarious situation recently.

Three months ago, Spirit Hall investigated the imperial palace and found no evidence that the royal family was hiding a cult.

However, this result did not dispel the rumors that Emperor Xue Ye was suspected to be an evil soul master. Instead, such rumors became more and more numerous.

Some people say that there is an evil secret room under the back garden of Emperor Xue Ye's palace, which is filled with corpses and internal organs.

Others said that the royal prison in Tiandou City had become a slaughterhouse, and those caught there had become sacrifices in evil rituals, never to be reborn.

In addition, the disappearance of the Royal Knights is also related to the royal family, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family and the Tiandou royal family are in cahoots, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family secretly protects the evil spirit master Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaogang's disciple Tang San, and even the closed-off Haotian Sect is secretly doing evil things, etc...

Rumors like these are rampant.

The Tiandou royal family has repeatedly clarified the rumors, but to no avail.

More rumors have spread out of the Tiandou Imperial City and to other cities in the Tiandou Empire.

……

"Trash! They're all trash!"

Inside the Tiandou Palace, Emperor Xue Ye roared in rage.

The vases, tables and chairs around were crushed to pieces by the terrifying fluctuations of soul power.

The ministers and guards standing by were silent as a mouse, not daring to move.

They could no longer remember how many sets of furniture Emperor Xue Ye had destroyed this month.

As the rumors continued to spread, such things happened almost every day.

"What do you all do for a living? I asked you to clarify the rumors, what did you do?"

After smashing the tables and chairs, Emperor Xue Ye looked at the ministers below with red eyes, "It's been three months, and those rumors have not only not been eliminated, but have spread more and more!"

"You all call yourselves noble aristocrats, but can't you even handle those lowly commoners?" Emperor Xue Ye roared again.

The hall fell into silence. After several seconds, a minister who looked powerful stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, it's not that we are inactive. Those rumors actually have nothing to do with the common people. It's someone who is trying to ruin the reputation of our Tiandou Empire!"

Emperor Xue Ye was silent. After thinking carefully, he felt that something was indeed wrong. He looked at the minister and asked:
"Then tell me what's going on?"

Upon hearing this, the minister took out a thin piece of paper from his arms and opened it.

When folded, it's about the size of a notebook, but when opened it's very large.

"Your Majesty, this is something that became popular in the Imperial City more than two months ago. It's called a newspaper, and people sell it every day at a very low price." "It contains a lot of knowledge about soul beasts and the theories of soul masters, so it was very popular among the residents of the Imperial City from the beginning."

Emperor Xue Ye listened quietly, took the newspaper, and was a little confused.

The minister handed the newspaper to Emperor Xue Ye and continued without pausing:

"This is the latest newspaper. In addition to the theoretical knowledge of spirit masters, there is another section. This section contains some small stories, many of which are related to our Tiandou Empire..."

The minister was unable to continue speaking. It was not appropriate for him to talk about those things in front of Emperor Xue Ye and the ministers.

Emperor Xue Ye's expression became extremely gloomy at this moment. He didn't need his ministers to explain, as he already knew the reason.

He saw the page in the newspaper.

[The Unknown Darkness of the Tiandou Imperial Family and Emperor Xueye 23]

If he doesn’t understand such a blatant title, he is an idiot.

"Is this the kind of thing that spreads rumors?" Emperor Xue Ye suppressed his anger.

The minister was sweating profusely and said tremblingly:

"This newspaper did not have those contents more than a month ago. These contents only appeared in the past month or so."

"In addition to newspapers, there are also pieces of paper posted on every door every morning, with the same content on them..."

As the minister spoke, he was already cursing in his heart at the person who did such a thing.

Every morning, there would be small notes on the doors of every household, describing the darkness of the Tiandou royal family, the evil secrets of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, the mysteries hidden by Emperor Xue Ye, and so on.

He didn't know which lunatic had so much free time.

Although paper is not expensive, it is still a considerable expense if it is done for more than a month.

Even the ministers had to admire him for going to such lengths to ruin the reputation of the Tiandou royal family, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, and the Haotian Sect.

And recently these small pieces of paper and newspapers seem to be spreading to other cities in the Tiandou Empire. If they really spread throughout the Tiandou Empire...

The minister shuddered all over, he didn't even dare to think about it.

You have to know that ordinary people are ignorant. If this kind of rumor continues for a long time, white will turn into black.

Besides, the minister was not sure whether it was evil or not.

He glanced at Emperor Xue Ye carefully, then quickly looked away.

We dare not ask, nor do we dare to say.

The terrifying soul power fluctuations spread out, and Emperor Xue Ye instantly shattered the newspaper in his hand into pieces.

"You said this kind of newspaper has been around for more than a month? Why don't you stop it?" Emperor Xue Ye was furious.

The minister froze in his place for a long time before he said, "Your Majesty, we have already stopped this newspaper. That was the last issue half a month ago."

Of course they knew that the newspapers had already reported this, but when they saw these short stories, they just thought they were funny and didn't take them seriously at all. They only reacted when the situation became serious.

Emperor Xue Ye took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then asked:
"Has the person who made this newspaper and the small piece of paper you mentioned been found?"

The minister said timidly: "Not yet... not yet."

As the minister finished his words, terrifying soul power erupted in the hall, and the minister was immediately knocked to the ground by the soul power.

"I'll give you three days. If you can't find the person who spread the rumors, you can die and atone for your crime!" Emperor Xue Ye said his last words.
