Chapter 164 - Chapter 164: “I Want to Progress So Badly! Even in My Dreams!”

"This problem is enormous. Is there any way to save it?"

Qian Renxue grabbed Chen Ming's arm somewhat anxiously, unconsciously using a bit of Spirit Power.

Logically speaking, under normal circumstances, she should have been fully able to notice that Chen Ming's physical body was absurdly tough.

But because she had spent a long period of time wrangling and maneuvering with all sides, while also thinking from multiple angles about how to handle the problem in the northeastern corner, she had long since become exhausted in both body and mind. As a result, she completely failed to notice anything abnormal about Chen Ming's body.

"These are no ordinary vermin anymore. Heavy fists must be brought down in order to salvage the current situation. Right now, the biggest problem is not even the Spirit Beasts, but the internal problems of the Heaven Dou Empire. Otherwise, with the Heaven Dou Empire's military strength, it absolutely would not have fallen into its current state."

Yes, the Heaven Dou Empire was indeed weak, and among the two great empires, it was indeed the weaker one. Its imperial authority was also not that stable, and centralization had no small number of problems as well.

But the Heaven Dou Empire was still, at any rate, a true empire in the genuine sense.

The unique structural environment and strange ecology of the Douluo Continent meant that within the Heaven Dou Empire, which had a population exceeding a hundred million, the standing troops alone surpassed two million. All sorts of miscellaneous soldiers and conscripted forces could not even be counted among them.

Although their strength was not great, with such numbers, as long as a portion of them could be mobilized, then unless it was an existence at the ferocious beast level, even a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast would be encircled and killed by human wave tactics.

Furthermore, although the Heaven Dou Empire lacked top-level powerhouses, it did not lack people at the middle and lower levels. At necessary moments, it could also directly borrow top powerhouses from the various great clans to assist. It was merely a matter of how great the price paid would be.

As long as the price offered was sufficient, forget a ninety-thousand-year Spirit Beast leading a beast tide. Even if a true hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast were rampaging, it could still be slain by powerhouses.

However, in reality, if there truly were a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast rampaging, then the Heaven Dou Empire would not even need to directly open its mouth and ask for help.

Instead, the various great powerhouses would directly begin displaying the demeanor of experts, immediately heading to the northeastern corner to provide support, then conveniently slaying the hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast and obtaining a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone. Among them, Bibi Dong might even be the most active one, because she could also conveniently harvest a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring.

"Then, what can I do?"

Qian Renxue was truly extremely distressed.

"Right now, first go ask Sect Master Ning to mobilize the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's connections in the business world to stabilize domestic prices. First find the most aggressive troublemakers and slaughter them. Hand a portion of their interests to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, then have the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect suppress those merchants."

"After that, your imperial family should intimidate those leading great nobles. At the very least, make them stop causing trouble on the surface."

"Then after that, you can only mobilize experts from all sides, and then mobilize the army to begin direct military suppression. But your movements must be fast, steady, and ruthless. You must immediately resolve the northeastern corner's problem before those who are hesitating or have been temporarily intimidated can react. Otherwise, all kinds of problems will only emerge again."

"Although saying this might be a little hurtful, if this were the Star Luo Empire, and something like this happened domestically, the various great nobles and the various chambers of commerce would all hurriedly offer all kinds of wealth and manpower to the imperial family, seeking to stabilize the situation inside the country as quickly as possible."

"Even if you gave them seven or eight heads, they would not dare cause trouble at a time like this. Otherwise, the Dai family of the Star Luo Empire would really kill people."

This was not a joke. The Hell White Tiger inherited by the imperial family of the Star Luo Empire was the most stable Martial Soul Fusion Skill in the world, bar none.

On the surface, the Star Luo Empire currently had two pairs of Spirit Douluo-level Hell White Tigers. As for Spirit Saint-level Hell White Tigers, there were a full five or six pairs.

In the original story, when Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, two high-level Spirit Douluo, used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, the power they erupted with even reached the level of Tang San after he had become a god, allowing them to directly confront Golden Crocodile Douluo.

Among this, it was true that the qualities of the two were higher than normal Spirit Masters. Under the enhancement of divine trials and immortal herbs, their various indicators had already reached a level no weaker than ordinary Titled Douluo. A normal Spirit Douluo-level Hell White Tiger would definitely not be that strong.

But a pair of Spirit Douluo-level Spirit Masters using the Hell White Tiger could at least erupt with combat power equivalent to a Level 93, Level 94, or even Level 95 Titled Douluo.

Powerful strength, combined with the Star Luo Empire's long-standing internal bloody elimination system, meant that the emperor of the Star Luo Empire truly would kill people if he felt displeased.

Although not everything could be solved with the single word "kill," in any case, the efficiency was more than one level higher than the current Heaven Dou Empire.

Moreover, with the Star Luo Empire's internal centralization ability, although directly taking action to kill people was certainly not the best of all possible choices, it was almost always an extremely good one.

Qian Renxue had no words to respond with. The reason she had come to infiltrate the Heaven Dou Empire in the first place was precisely because the Heaven Dou Empire's elimination process was relatively mild, and because all aspects were comparatively easy to penetrate.

During the period when she was infiltrating the Heaven Dou Empire, this was good news. But after she had established her footing, this became a major problem.

"Brother Chen, do you have a way to resolve it? This is my first request of you. If you have the ability, please help this brother."

"Yes, yes. In truth, this will take a great deal of time and energy, and it will also require Your Highness the Crown Prince and me to personally go there and conduct an on-site investigation before it can be resolved. Has Your Highness truly made such a decision?"

"As long as it can be resolved, that is good. As long as it can be resolved."

Qian Renxue held Chen Ming's hand and nodded seriously.

At present, Emperor Xue Ye's performance in this matter had been quite incompetent. Within the entire empire, there were no good methods for dealing with such chaos.

If she could pacify all matters, recover the northern lands, and display sufficient strength and ability,

then with her accumulation over these years, plus her merits, her current identity and status would rise another level. At that time, even Emperor Xue Ye would no longer be able to continue suppressing her. She might even have a real chance to directly ascend during this opportunity!

Conversely, however, if she performed poorly at this time, then the difficulty of ascending the throne in the future would also become slightly higher.

Although Qian Renxue did not feel that something like Xue Beng could compare with her, at the very least, she would once again have to spend a very, very long time in this regard.

She truly wanted to progress so badly. Even in her dreams, she wanted to progress!

"With Brother Chen here, I can set everything at ease. I must ask Brother Chen to make time and travel with me to the northeast. For the sake of all the people under heaven, I ask Brother Chen to come out of seclusion."

Qian Renxue's eyes were practically glowing. Her entire person almost wished she could directly knead Chen Ming into her own body, then bring him away immediately.

Feeling that scorching gaze, Chen Ming took a slight step back before nodding.

"Since it is a request from Your Highness the Crown Prince, then I will not refuse."
