Douluo Dalu:Breaking Clan

Chapter 266: Chapter 266: The Three Strategies of Borrowing a Knife to Kill



Bibi Dong looked puzzled: "Three strategies? Let's hear what methods you have to deal with the fierce beasts and the dangers facing the Spirit Empire?"

Yang Podi glanced at Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue: "The first strategy is to become a god before Tang San does, and not just before him but faster and stronger. By then, even if Di Tian wants to protect Tang San, he might not have the power to do so."

Qian Renxue sneered: "Isn't that nonsense? If it were that easy to become a god, we wouldn't even need to discuss this deal."

Yang Podi shook his head: "Gods also vary in strength. Angel God and Rakshasa God are merely first-level gods. Above them are divine kings, and even entities surpassing divine kings. What you two need to do is ascend to godhood as quickly as possible and uproot your enemies. Remember, uprooting them completely is the key."

Bibi Dong pondered for a moment before speaking: "What are your other two strategies? They can't be as trivial as this one, can they?"

"Of course not. Right now, the Spirit Empire should gather all its strength and annihilate either the Heaven Dou Empire or the Star Luo Empire in one fell swoop. Then, by leveraging the unified momentum, eradicate the soul beast clan's schemes."

"Yang Podi, what kind of idea is this? Both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire command armies of millions, while our Spirit Empire is constantly under threat from them. How could we easily annihilate these two empires?"

Yang Podi glanced around at the group and couldn't help but shake his head: "I just called you all clever people, but when it comes to this, why do you suddenly become so foolish?"

The group at the scene turned dark-faced upon hearing Yang Podi's words. Everyone present was a high-ranking Titled Douluo and could not tolerate such insults.

Qian Renxue immediately flew into a rage: "What do you know, Yang Podi? I've been in the Heaven Dou Empire for so many years, and I still returned empty-handed. The foundations of these two empires are far stronger than you can imagine."

Yang Podi couldn't help but shake his head: "I find you all quite amusing. You love to compare your weaknesses with the strengths of the two empires. Can't you use your brains a little?"

"The Spirit Empire has a total of fifteen or sixteen Titled Douluo, more than both the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires combined. Especially in terms of high-level soul masters, your numbers are overwhelming."

"Can't you gather all your Titled Douluo, along with dozens of Soul Douluo and hundreds of Soul Sages, concentrate your power, and strike directly at Star Luo City or Heaven Dou City? Uproot the royal families of the two empires in one fell swoop. By then, the two empires would be leaderless, and their armies of millions would just become a farce."

"But instead, you squander your advantage and compete with the two empires in terms of national strength, engaging them in direct warfare. It's simply nonsensical."

The crowd was speechless upon hearing this. If they really did as Yang Podi suggested, using over ten Titled Douluo along with dozens of Soul Douluo and hundreds of Soul Sages to attack Heaven Dou City or Star Luo City, it would indeed be a walk in the park.

At this moment, Qian Daoliu spoke lightly: "Back then, our Spirit Hall had agreed with the two empires not to take action in their capitals. This was also a rule set by the soul master world."

Yang Podi looked at Qian Daoliu, thinking this man might be an idiot. With the situation as dire as it was, he was still talking about rules set by the soul master world and the two empires.

Yang Podi said exasperatedly: "Senior Qian Daoliu, if the armies of the two empires invade Spirit City, do you think they will spare the Angel Clan or leave any survivors in the Spirit Empire?"

"As for the so-called rules of the soul master world, this world is governed by the law of the jungle. History is written by the victors. If the two empires destroy the Spirit Empire, won't the Spirit Empire become a so-called evil force in their history books?"

"Even if you awaken martial souls for ordinary civilians or organize soul masters to hunt down so-called evil soul masters, in the eyes of the two empires, you are nothing but a threat—a force that disrupts their rule."

Qian Renxue suddenly interjected: "Is this why you want to cooperate with our Spirit Empire?"

Yang Podi sighed: "Indeed. Whether or not the Spirit Empire has committed evil deeds or eliminated other sects, at the very least, it has contributed to the soul master world by supporting civilian soul masters. It is also the only path for ordinary soul masters to rise."

"Neither the two empires nor the upper three sects truly care about civilian soul masters. To them, these ordinary soul masters are nothing more than tools to be used. They would never allow them to truly rise."

"Many of you here are from civilian backgrounds. Did the upper three sects ever give you such opportunities to rise? I hope your Spirit Empire will maintain this tradition and continue to provide a path for civilian soul masters."

Aside from Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue, the others fell silent. As Yang Podi said, many of them came from civilian backgrounds. Neither the two empires nor the upper three sects would have allowed them to grow to their current levels.

Even Bibi Dong's expression softened slightly. It seemed she, too, came from a civilian family—not from the upper three sects or the two great empires. The Spirit Empire had indeed spared no effort in nurturing her.

Qian Daoliu spoke with a grave expression: "What you said makes sense, but how can you guarantee that the fierce beasts won't side with the Clear Sky Sect? If they ambush us, wouldn't we suffer heavy losses?"

Yang Podi couldn't help but question Qian Daoliu's intelligence: "Fierce beasts and humans are fundamentally opposed. Back in Heaven Dou City, Di Tian didn't dare to reveal his full strength. If fierce beasts openly intervene, you can accuse the Clear Sky Sect of colluding with fierce beasts and betraying humanity. Rally all soul masters under the heavens to crusade against the Clear Sky Sect. Even the two empires wouldn't dare shield them lightly."

"Besides, Di Tian isn't protecting the Clear Sky Sect; he's protecting Tang San. Since Tang San is far away on Sea God Island, why not take advantage of his absence to destroy the Clear Sky Sect?"

"Furthermore, fierce beasts are limited in number. If you dare not attack Heaven Dou City, can't you target Star Luo City instead? There are no fierce beasts protecting Star Luo City."

Qian Daoliu was momentarily speechless, his face darkening. Others, however, seemed lost in thought.

Yang Podi continued: "If you're still worried, you can deploy large forces near the Clear Sky Sect. First, send a small number of Titled Douluo to feign an attack and lure them out. If Di Tian doesn't intervene, immediately launch an all-out assault and eradicate the Clear Sky Sect before Di Tian has time to react."

"And another thing: if you encounter one or two relatively weak fierce beasts rather than Di Tian himself, you can unite your forces to kill them. Wouldn't that be free soul rings and soul bones?"

Hearing about the potential for soul rings and bones, Bibi Dong's eyes lit up: "Good idea. I'll personally visit Heaven Dou City to see just how powerful these fierce beasts are."

Yang Podi rolled his eyes at Bibi Dong. This woman was far too opportunistic, eager to seize any advantage she saw.

Qian Renxue seemed doubtful: "Yang Podi, from the beginning, you've planned not to get involved yourself but instead use the Spirit Empire's strength to eliminate the Clear Sky Sect. What exactly are you up to?"

Yang Podi shook his head: "My Heavenly Academy is weak. If the soul beast clan goes all out and organizes a beast tide, our Heavenly Academy would be in big trouble."

Qian Renxue was furious: "If your Heavenly Academy fears a beast tide, does that mean the Spirit Empire doesn't?"

Yang Podi looked at Qian Renxue with disdain: "Young lady, what are you even thinking? The Angel Clan is the leader of the soul master world. It was by pacifying the world that the Angel God achieved godhood and elevated your clan's status in the soul master world."

"If fierce beasts dare to launch a beast tide against the Spirit Empire, wouldn't that be the perfect opportunity to solidify your leadership in the soul master world?"

"Besides, Spirit City is protected by the Angel God. With the Angel God's power, even if the soul beasts attack with all their might, it would only be a gift of soul rings and soul bones."

"As the inheritor of the Angel God, how can you lack the spirit of the Angel God? With your mindset, I doubt you'll ever become a god."

Qian Renxue nearly spat out blood in anger, her face darkening considerably.

At this moment, Bibi Dong suddenly spoke: "You have a point. As the leader of the soul master world, our Spirit Empire naturally has the duty to organize humanity's soul masters to resist the soul beast clan. Otherwise, we wouldn't deserve the title of the Angel Clan."

Hearing Bibi Dong's words laced with hidden meaning, Yang Podi couldn't help but complain inwardly: "Are Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong really mother and daughter, or are they enemies? Why are they so keen on undermining each other?"

Qian Renxue's eyebrows twitched upon hearing these words, seemingly about to refute Bibi Dong.

Qian Daoliu hurriedly interrupted the conversation. "Young friend Yang Podi, let's hear your third plan. Perhaps you have another good idea."

Yang Podi glanced at Bibi Dong and said, "Your Majesty, you can immediately dispatch an agility-type Titled Douluo to the Star Dou Forest to locate the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python as soon as possible. These two soul beasts are clearly deeply connected to Xiao Wu, who is by Tang San's side. They are most likely part of the soul beasts' plan to prepare soul rings and soul bones for Tang San in the future."

"We can strike before Tang San returns, using swift and decisive action to kill these two soul beasts. In doing so, we can foil the soul beasts' plans and simultaneously hinder Tang San's growth."

Bibi Dong's expression turned somber. "Are these the two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts you promised to cooperate on earlier? And the soul bones from them are supposed to go to you?"

Yang Podi shook his head slightly. "I know you've been sending people to search for these two soul beasts, but ordinary Soul Saints would be walking to their deaths. It would be better to send Ghost Douluo or Ghost Leopard Douluo. Even if they encounter Di Tian, they could still retreat quickly."

"And it's crucial to act now. If we wait until Tang San returns from Sea God Island, these two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts will undoubtedly sacrifice themselves to him. By then, you will have gained nothing and would only be aiding the enemy."

Qian Daoliu's expression grew grave. "Empress, is what Yang Podi said about these two soul beasts being particularly close to Tang San true? Is there a risk of aiding the enemy in the future?"

Bibi Dong nodded. "Back when I arranged for someone to capture the hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast Soft Bone Rabbit Xiao Wu, these two soul beasts did indeed risk everything to protect her."

"But Yang Podi, when I sent people to capture Xiao Wu last time, we were disrupted by fierce beasts. How can you ensure we won't be interrupted again?"

Yang Podi sneered coldly. "This problem is simple. Fierce beasts dare not openly oppose someone undergoing a God Trial. They are also wary of being discovered by the gods in the Divine Realm. If Your Majesty personally acts, and if Miss Qian Renxue and I accompany you, no fierce beast will dare to appear."

Bibi Dong nodded. "Very well. I will immediately arrange for Ghost Douluo to head to the Star Dou Forest to search for these two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts. As for your other two suggestions, we will quickly determine their feasibility."

Yang Podi nodded. "Then our cooperation is almost settled. Now, Your Majesty, you should take us to the Rakshasa Secret Realm first, followed by Miss Qian Renxue accompanying me to handle my matter."

"What about the immortal herbs? When will you provide them?"

"That shouldn't be a problem for now, right? I've already demonstrated my sincerity. Once I've completed my matters, I will naturally hand over the immortal herbs to Miss Qian Renxue."

"Did you forget that one of the immortal herbs is meant for Nana?"

"Your Majesty, you're overthinking this. With your strength, do you think I would dare to default on my promise?"

After hearing this, Bibi Dong silently nodded, though Qian Renxue's expression remained unpleasant.
