Chapter 211 - Chapter 211 - Support and Decision

Currently, the Douluo Continent is divided into two. The Elder Hall, led by Qian Renxue, holds the final say in the Wuhun Empire, and no one dares to question the imperial edicts of Xu Mingxi in the Star Luo Empire.

With their approval, two giant war machines began to turn, and many powerful individuals and soul master corps gathered in Tianxing City and Zhenxing City.

These two cities, facing each other, would be the final battleground to determine the true ruler of the Douluo Continent, and nearly every power was involved to some extent.

As one of the parties in this war, the Lord's Mansion in Zhenxing City was currently silent, and the expressions of every soul master and general were cold and resolute.

Qian Renxue, sitting in the main seat, wore a gloomy expression as she flipped through the intelligence reports in her hand, but she couldn't find any breakthrough.

She had clearly used the foundation of soul bones to force some Soul Douluo to break through their bottlenecks, but unexpectedly, compared to the lineup of the Star Luo Empire, their side was still vastly inferior in both quality and quantity.

The Wuhun Empire held many titles, yet it still couldn't defeat the Star Luo Empire, which had retained numerous titled experts. This realization reaffirmed Qian Renxue's earlier thoughts.

"Everyone, you've now seen the strength of both sides. We are no match for them at the top-tier level. If we want to defeat the enemy, we must start with the Soul Master Corps.

General, I want you to lead many Soul Douluo to hold off or even kill their titled experts. This is possible."

The only advantage the Wuhun Empire had was the number of soul masters at the Soul Saint and Soul Douluo levels. Thanks to the former Spirit Hall foundation, they were much stronger than the Star Luo Empire in this aspect.

The generals of the Soul Master Corps looked grim but still accepted the mission. In this situation, only they could take the stand.

In addition, relying on some high-level Soul Douluo, even if they couldn't win, they could still barely hold off weaker titled experts.

"Hahahaha! I laugh out loud. You're still dreaming of fighting the Star Luo Empire?

Qian Renxue, wake up. Whether in terms of titled combat strength or soul master troops beneath them, the Wuhun Empire is no match."

This voice was Bibi Dong's. How could that be? Didn't she say she wouldn't participate in this war?

Qian Renxue frowned and looked at Bibi Dong, who was walking in from outside. Disgust and surprise flashed in her eyes at the same time.

"What are you doing here?"

"What am I doing here? I am the Empress of the Wuhun Empire. How could this war happen without me? It's just that you seem stuck in the past and fail to see the current situation clearly."

"What do you mean by that?"

Bibi Dong didn't answer directly. She wiped her hand over a soul guidance storage device, and a level 5 soul-guided cannon and several soul-guided shells were casually thrown to the ground.

The sound of the impact struck the hearts of everyone present, especially Qianjun Jiangmo Douluo, who immediately stood up and stared in astonishment at the soul guidance device before him.

When Xu Zilong had produced a level 9 soul-guided shell, they had seized it from the chief priest and recognized it.

"Bibi Dong, where did you get this stuff? Is it from that so-called foreigner Xu Zilong? He dares to return after deceiving us?"

"Xu Zilong? Who's that? These items were taken from the Xingluo camp. There are plenty more. I think everyone here knows what that means."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the soul masters who had witnessed the power of soul-guided weapons were horrified, especially Lion Douluo, who had once considered building a soul-guided army. He now had no hope for this war.

But what confused them was: when the Star Luo Empire had secretly built so many soul-guided weapons, where did they get the designs? And why didn't they use them in the last war?

These questions were asked by Qian Renxue, and many eyes turned toward Bibi Dong.

"Look at what I've done. Don't you know which force is the most secretive in the Star Luo Empire?

And if I remember correctly, the Xu Zilong you mentioned came to the Douluo Continent to hunt down the Star Crown Sect's Douluo God."

That's right!

Lion Douluo suddenly realized that since the Star Crown Sect had offended Xu Zilong and caused him to travel all the way here, they must have had contact with foreign forces.

The Xu family abroad possessed powerful soul-guided weapons, so it wasn't surprising that the Star Crown Sect, who had dealings with them, obtained related blueprints.

He vaguely remembered hearing that the Star Crown Sect's ships had returned from overseas years ago, but he hadn't paid much attention at the time. Now it seemed they had likely acquired soul-guided weapon designs back then.

He didn't expect that, after all these years, the Star Crown Sect would finally reveal them. They had hidden it well, and their plans ran deep.

And the blacksmiths who had gone missing in Gengxin City before the Wuhun Empire's attack might also have been taken by the Star Crown Sect. Yet they had the audacity to condemn the Wuhun Empire alongside other powers. How foolish.

Lion Douluo clenched his right fist and slammed it hard on the table in front of him. As he vented his anger, he also awakened everyone else in the room.

"Young Master, the most important thing now is to discuss how to counter the Star Luo Empire's attack. We don't have much time left to prepare."

Qian Renxue came back to her senses with a bitter expression on her face. The power gap was there — what else could she do?

However, she quickly put aside her hesitation. Fear before battle is taboo on the battlefield. As the leader of the titled elders, she couldn't show even a hint of doubt.

"Bibi Dong, since you're here, does that mean you want to participate in this war?"

"Of course. I am the Empress of the Wuhun Empire. Without me, you're just a bunch of ants easily crushed by the Star Luo Empire."

"Fine. Remember your promise."

Even if what Bibi Dong said was true, Qian Renxue still felt a bit repulsed. She never imagined she would one day have to rely on this woman.

If her grandfather were still alive, he would never have compromised. He would have driven her away with the Angel Sword and charged into the Star Luo camp to slaughter everyone.

Still, with Bibi Dong joining, at least there was someone who could counter the Star Douluo God on the enemy's side, giving Qian Renxue one less worry.

Being in a disadvantaged position was still better than being completely defeated. At least they could preserve the dignity of the Wuhun Empire.

Qian Renxue stood tall, her Angel Spirit possessing her. The Angel Sword in her hand radiated dazzling brilliance, filling all the soul masters who believed in the Angel God with hope.

She looked at the soul masters below, raised the Angel Sword above her head, and announced her final decision:

"Everyone, I've decided to forfeit all battles below the Soul Douluo level in this war. If we lose, then the Wuhun Empire will declare complete surrender."
