Chapter 246: The Destruction of Gengxin City

After expanding through multiple fronts, the Spirit Hall basically occupied almost all the kingdoms and principalities of the Star Luo Empire. After the demise of the Barak Kingdom, some of the surrounding cities that had not yet surrendered were basically taken over by it.

The living space of Avalanche and his men is getting smaller and smaller, and there are many different voices within the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom. Some people think that the Wuhun Empire is too powerful. Although its overall strength is not as good as that of the Xingluo Empire, their soul masters are very powerful.

After several wars, the Wuhun Empire occupied those countries with a crushing force.

At present, the Wuhun Empire's reconnaissance cavalry has appeared on the border of the kingdom, and there has even been friction.

But now Avalanche and his men cannot go to war with the Wuhun Empire. Their army still needs training, and their current combat power is not enough. Moreover, their soul masters still need training, and they have to recruit more soul masters.

The most important point is that they have to wait for Tang San to come back.

Bibi Dong was quite satisfied with the result of this expansion. When she annexed these countries, the Holy Soul Empire had only annexed two countries, and those two countries are still unstable.

Inside the Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong looked at the expansion results and nodded. Although she didn't have any expression, one could still feel that she was quite satisfied.

However, when she saw that Gengxin City had not been conquered yet, she immediately became dissatisfied.

"What's going on in Gengxin City? It's been so long, why hasn't it been conquered yet?"

Facing Bibi Dong's questioning, Xie Yue bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the resistance of the Gengxin City Blacksmith Association is very fierce. We have tried several times, but all failed. And it seems that there is a force that can help them in secret."

After hearing this, Bibi Dong thought about it and concluded that the only force secretly helping the Blacksmith Association was probably Yu Xiaogang and his group. The Holy Soul Empire had tried to recruit the Blacksmith Association but failed. It was impossible for them to help the other party, so Yu Xiaogang and his group were the only ones left.

As far as she knew, the president of the Blacksmith Association, Lou Gao, seemed to have joined Yu Xiaogang's side, and it seemed that he was in the Tang Sect founded by Tang San.

"They are just a group of blacksmiths. Xie Yue, take a team of soul masters with you and don't bring shame to the Wuhun Empire."

"Yes." Xie Yue bowed and retreated behind Hu Liena. Although he was her brother, Hu Liena was the Holy Maiden of the Empire and the future Empress of the Empire, so there should still be respect for her.

"The military defenses of the subordinate principalities are not yet stable. Nana, send some more people to garrison them strictly." Bibi Dong looked at her favorite disciple. She really treated Hu Liena as her own daughter.

"Yes." Hu Liena also bowed to Bibi Dong.

Then Bibi Dong looked at Yan again.

"What's happening in the Holy Soul Empire recently?"

Yan said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the Holy Soul Empire has not taken any action at the moment. They seem to be still sorting out their internal affairs and digesting the expanded territory. The troops that were originally on the front line of defense against the Barak Kingdom have retreated again."

"Yeah." Bibi Dong nodded with satisfaction. The Holy Soul Empire still had sincerity, but she also knew that all this was only temporary. The two empires had the same goal. They had no conflict for now, but after she annexed the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom and destroyed Avalanche and the others, and then marched south to annex the Star Luo Empire, the Wuhun and Holy Soul empires would face off in a decisive battle.

There can only be one master in Douluo Continent.

There can only be one empire.

"We still need to keep an eye on the Holy Spirit Empire, but don't get into conflict with them. We can't go to war with them directly right now."

"Yes." Yan took two steps back after performing the salute.

After leaving the Pope's Palace, Xie Yue went to prepare for the action against Gengxin City. Hu Liena also dispatched troops to consolidate the military defense. Only Yan was relatively free. Even though he was the most idle, he still had other things to do.

Di Yuan and Qian Renxue are now practicing against each other almost every day, because they are going to challenge the ninety-nine-level Extreme Douluo, so they must have enough strength.

The two's sparring matches basically ended in a draw, as their strength was almost the same.

After today's sparring, Di Yuan looked at the damaged ground and the rolling heat waves emanating from the surroundings and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Xiaoxue, I feel like if we continue to practice like this, the Douluo Palace will be destroyed."

Qian Renxue didn't care. "Don't worry, it won't be destroyed."

"Come on, continue." Qian Renxue immediately got ready again.

"Come on." Di Yuan didn't waste any words, and the two of them started practicing again.

The expansion of the Spirit Hall has temporarily stopped, but the pace of recruiting spirit masters has not stopped. A large number of spirit masters have joined the Spirit Empire. Of course, some spirit masters are unwilling to join the Spirit Empire. They either join the Xing Luo or Holy Spirit Empire, or join Yu Xiaogang.

Some were simply killed by the Spirit Hall.

Tang San and his companions have now completed the fourth test of the Sea God, successfully killed the Evil Demon Killer Whale King, and Tang San also absorbed its spirit ring.

The Spirit Hall once again launched an attack on Gengxin City. This time, Xie Yue led the team personally, and was assisted by the Holy Dragon Sect and the Sparrow Bee Sect.

Soon they broke through Gengxin City. Although people from the Tang Sect rescued them, the people from the Blacksmith Association still suffered heavy casualties. Only a small number of people escaped successfully. The Wuhun Empire successfully occupied Gengxin City.

After learning about the destruction of Gengxin City, Lou Gao was naturally heartbroken. However, he could only turn his grief into strength and create better hidden weapons. However, the Buddha's Wrath Lotus and the Torrential Pear Blossom Needles were really difficult to create.

So far progress has been slow.

The Min clan also sent people into the Holy Soul Empire, but these people lost contact after entering. Bai He estimated that they were in great danger.

In a secret dungeon in Holy Soul City.

A female disciple from the Min clan was hung here by chains. Her body was covered with wounds and blood was dripping on the ground. Her martial soul had been destroyed and she was almost a useless person.

The dungeon door opened and Di Ming walked in with his men.

The smell in the dungeon was really unpleasant and very humid. Di Ming covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief with a look of disgust.

Came to the female disciple of the Min clan.

"Hasn't she made a move yet?"

"Your Highness, no." Someone behind him shook his head.

Di Ming snorted coldly.

"She is not only pretty, but also strong."

Pinching the female disciple's chin, Di Ming lifted her drooping head.

"Tell me, after all, this concerns your life. If you don't tell me, you will lose your life."

"So many people have died, haven't they died enough?"

"If you keep dying like this, there won't be many of you in the Min clan left."

Bai He had placed more than twenty disciples in the Holy Soul Empire, but almost all of them were captured by Di Ming.

The female disciple opened her eyes and stared at him intently, with a look that seemed to want to tear Di Ming to pieces.

"It's that look again. I've seen it too many times."

"Forget it. Let's send her off, then find a good place to bury her and go interrogate the others."

After saying that, he turned around and left. He didn't want to stay in this place any longer. It was dirty, smelly, and damp, and the dampness was mixed with a strong smell of blood.
