Chapter 162 Devouring Ma Hongjun

Dozens of days later, Yan, Shui Bing'er and Ye Lingling came to Tianshui City together.

Yan knew that with Bibi Dong's personality, she would definitely not give up and would send someone to find him.

Therefore, in order not to implicate Tianshui College, he did not go to the college with the two girls, but stayed in a small hotel in Tianshui City.

In the evening, Shui Bing'er came to find Yan.

"Brother Yan, the dean handed me a letter, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked him to pass it on to you."

"Crown Prince? Xue Qinghe?"

"Yeah. I also find it strange why he would write to you."

"Let me take a look."

Yan finished reading the letter and grinned.

"Brother Yan, what's in the letter? Can I know?"

"Of course, you can see for yourself."

Shui Bing'er was delighted after reading the letter.

"Brother Yan, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have a traitor in the Spirit Hall? He seems to know that you have offended Bibi Dong, and he said that he will provide you with protection. There is a hint of recruitment in his words."

"Yeah, I know what he means."

"He also said that he knew a secret of the Spirit Hall and invited you to discuss it in person. This might just be a cover, and he wanted to recruit you in person."

Yan shook his head.

"No, the secret he was talking about really exists."

"Really? Are you going to meet him then?"

"Yes. It would be good to meet him. This way, Bibi Dong's anger will not burn on your three academies, Tianshui, Chihuo, and Shenfeng."

Shui Bing'er was a little confused.

"Brother Yan, does this matter have anything to do with our three colleges?"

"Yes. If Bibi Dong attacks the Tiandou Empire, all forces that do not submit to her will be eliminated, and even Emperor Xue Ye will not be able to protect you. But if the person in charge of the Tiandou Empire is Xue Qinghe, then the situation will be different."

After hearing this, Shui Bing'er was confused.

"Emperor Xue Ye couldn't do it, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince do it?"

Yan nodded and smiled:
"Bing'er, the secret Xue Qinghe mentioned in the letter might be his own secret. Actually, I know it, and it doesn't hurt to tell you now, because you will know it sooner or later anyway."

"What is it?"

Shui Bing'er looked at Yan with some anticipation.

Yan continued:

"The real Xue Qinghe is no longer alive. The person under Xue Qinghe's skin is actually the Spirit Hall's young master Qian Renxue."

"What? This."

Shui Bing'er found it unbelievable.

"Bing'er, this is the secret of the Spirit Hall, and few people know it. Qian Renxue lurked in the Heaven Dou Empire in order to seize the power of the empire and realize the Spirit Hall's plan to unify the Douluo Continent."

"Do you, Spirit Hall, really want to destroy the two great empires of Tiandou and Xingluo?"

"Well, I think there is nothing wrong with doing this. The two empires have always been in constant conflict. If it weren't for the checks and balances of the Spirit Hall, who knows how many wars would have broken out. In wars, the people at the bottom are always the ones who suffer, while the nobles can still sit back and relax. The Spirit Hall wants to unify the Douluo Continent, end all wars, and let the people live a stable life."

After listening to Yan's words, Shui Bing'er seemed to understand.

The purpose of their Tianshui Academy is to be open to the public, which is the same as the Wuhun Hall Academy.

The Spirit Hall's approach is to protect the interests of ordinary people and to maintain world peace. However, thinking of Bibi Dong, Shui Bing'er still has some doubts.

"Brother Yan, Pope Bibi Dong also represents the Spirit Hall. So between Qian Renxue and her, who is the real master of the Spirit Hall?"

"In fact, there are two major camps within the Spirit Hall. One is headed by Pope Bibi Dong, and the other is headed by Qian Renxue's grandfather Qian Daoliu. But in the final analysis, the Spirit Hall still belongs to the Qian family."

"I see. If you join Qian Renxue's camp, Bibi Dong won't be able to embarrass you anymore."

"Yes. My parents died when I was young, and it was the Spirit Hall that adopted and trained me. I can escape the control of that crazy woman Bibi Dong, but I can't ignore the Spirit Hall."

Shui Bing'er understood what Yan meant.

"Brother Yan, will you help Qian Renxue seize power in the Tiandou Empire?"

"Yes. Just launching a palace coup can change the ruler of the Tiandou Empire, minimize the losses caused by the war, and save the people from the suffering of war. This is also the purpose of Qian Renxue lurking in the Tiandou Empire for many years."

Shui Bing'er nodded to show her understanding.

"So when do you plan to go to Tiandou City?"

"Tomorrow, I will stay in Tiandou City for a while. What I just talked about with you is confidential, so don't tell anyone yet."

"Okay, I understand. Be careful on the road then."

"Don't worry, it'll be okay."

Early the next morning, Yan left Tianshui City and headed for Tiandou City.

Yan knew that it was not that simple that Emperor Xue Ye had been seriously ill and bedridden, but was suddenly cured.

Even if Tang San came back, he couldn't cure the poison in Emperor Xue Ye's body, because Dugu Bo's medicine garden was long gone.

The Power Clan was destroyed. Without Titan to act as a go-between, it would be unlikely for Tang San to come into contact with Yang Wudi of the Po Clan, and Yang Wudi would not be able to detoxify Emperor Xue Ye.

Therefore, there is only one possibility, Ning Fengzhi used a secret technique to cure Emperor Xue Ye and restore him to his original state.

Once Emperor Xue Ye regains control of the Tiandou Empire, Qian Renxue's plan will face great challenges and may be exposed prematurely, resulting in failure.

Moreover, during this period of time, Bibi Dong might declare war on the Tiandou Empire and take it down by force.

Bibi Dong's ultimate goal is to destroy the Spirit Hall and even the entire world, but Yan will not let her succeed easily.

Therefore, no matter what, we must help Qian Renxue take over the Tiandou Empire.

~~~~~~~~~
Another hundred miles ahead is the prosperous and powerful Tiandou City.

Yan was alone, walking forward with steady steps.

A sudden strong wave of soul power surged from behind, instantly breaking the tranquility around.

Yan turned around suddenly, his eyes as sharp as torches, locking onto the two figures that were approaching at an alarming speed.

When his vision became clear, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then a complicated smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The people who came were Ma Hongjun and Flanders!
The two men stared at Yan, with murderous gleams in their eyes, as if they wanted to devour Yan.

Yan once defeated the Shrek Seven Devils on his own. In the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, he joined forces with Yue Guan to kill Dugu Bo and defeated Flanders, Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang, who were known as the Golden Iron Triangle.

These undoubtedly made Ma Hongjun and Flanders hate him to the core.

Now that they met on a narrow road, the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Flanders looked around, trying to find any companions who might be with Yan, but there was nothing unusual around except for the occasional flying birds and gently swaying trees.

Faced with Flanders' actions, Yan not only did not show any fear, but grinned instead.

This is a good opportunity to devour Ma Hongjun.

"What are you looking for? Are you worried that I brought helpers with me, or are you afraid that you can't beat me alone? To tell you the truth, I'm the only one here. If you really have the guts, just come at me."
