Chapter 171 The Plan to Blow Up Mingdu
Poison Undying firmly opposed Huo Yuhao's plan to bomb Mingdu.
Putting aside the dangers of Huo Yuhao going to Mingdu, the very fact that Mingdu might not have a large arms depot raises questions about whether he could be poisoned to death.
"As the imperial city of the Sun and Moon Empire, it is impossible for a large armory to exist in Mingdu."
"The Sun Moon Empire is not stupid. If such an armory were to explode, the entire imperial city would suffer unpredictable and devastating damage."
"Blowing up some small arms depots won't hurt them much, and we don't know where their real core is."
"What good will your rash journey to Mingdu do, other than increase your own risk?"
If the poison didn't kill him, Huo Yuhao fell into deep thought.
Indeed, as the core of the Sun and Moon Empire, Mingdu could not possibly store weapons of mass destruction within its city walls.
But for some reason, Huo Yuhao had a vague feeling that the plan to bomb Mingdu was extremely feasible.
Huo Yuhao didn't want to blow up all the residents of Mingdu.
He only wanted to severely damage the military strength of the Sun Moon Empire.
Xu He has returned to the Sun Moon Empire and is now competing with Xu Tianran for the throne.
However, Huo Yuhao did not believe that Xu He's political acumen could keep up with Xu Tianran for long.
Even the matter of revealing his Sun Martial Soul and completely confirming his identity as the Crown Prince was only accomplished with Tianmeng's secret guidance.
It's really too difficult to get him to restrain Xu Tianran's ambition.
After more than four thousand years of development, no one knows how terrifying their accumulated wealth has become.
After listening to Huo Yuhao's words, Du Busi fell silent.
What Huo Yuhao said is true.
Linghu's status in the Sun Moon Empire was merely that of a junior researcher, destined to have limited access to many secrets.
Huo Yuhao, with his disguise skills, was indeed the perfect person to gather intelligence on the core secrets of the Sun Moon Empire.
"Teacher," Huo Yuhao said, "no one on the Douluo Continent knows what Elder Yi looks like."
"And under his protection, it wouldn't be difficult for me to infiltrate the Ming Dynasty."
"Besides, even if I am exposed in Mingdu, there is still a demiplane, isn't there?"
"The level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon doesn't just blast a single point; it targets the entire surface of space, making it effective against teleportation in a demiplane."
"But would the Sun Moon Empire dare to detonate a Level 9 fixed-mount soul-guided cannon in Mingdu?"
"Elder Yi's current strength can be said to be invincible below the limit, which is enough to protect my operations in Mingdu."
Poison didn't kill him, and he fell even more silent.
He could sense Electrolux's strength.
This high priest, who possesses attributes of ice, light, spirit, and even space, is undoubtedly the most formidable opponent on the Douluo Continent.
If he really gets serious, even a Limit Douluo can achieve a one-for-one trade.
After all, he only fell from that realm, not that he never reached that realm.
Moreover, he can summon the power of the Ice God one last time.
That is a terrifying force capable of changing the landscape of the continent.
After pondering for a long time, Du Bu Si finally relented: "We'll discuss this matter after your succession ceremony. But whatever the outcome, you must remember that your survival is the primary objective."
"Intelligence gathering can fail, the armory can be spared, and Mingde Hall can be spared, but you must survive."
Poison Undying stared intently into Huo Yuhao's eyes: "You need to know that if something happens to you, it won't just be the original body of Zong Bei who goes mad. At that time, the chaos on the continent will definitely be more intense than it was four thousand years ago."
Huo Yuhao understood what "poison cannot kill" meant.
The situation on the mainland is currently turbulent, and even though Shrek Academy's decline is inevitable, their top combat power remains.
As long as they hold fast to the Golden Tree, they can still maintain a certain level of power.
If Huo Yuhao were to die in Mingdu, then the Body Sect, the Far North, and the Heavenly Soul Empire would inevitably launch a bloody war.
This time, Shrek Academy will not side with the Heavenly Soul Empire.
Moreover, there is also the Holy Spirit Church lying dormant overseas.
Du Bu Si was unaware of Di Tian's existence.
However, Huo Yuhao had a vague feeling that if something happened to him, the Star Dou Great Forest would probably also erupt in chaos.
The reason is simple: Di Tian's level of attention to Huo Yuhao is abnormally high.
It is even higher than the auspicious beast Gu Mingxi.
Once Di Tian, the Beast God, enters the scene, the entire Douluo Continent will be plunged into unprecedented chaos.
Because the Demon Forest will inevitably enter the fray, no one will sit idly by and watch the Evil Emperor reap the benefits.
"Don't worry, teacher, I understand the importance of this," Huo Yuhao replied.
After the group returned to the Heavenly Soul Palace, Xue Heng stood before the table for a long time without saying a word.
Xue Heng had known about the tsunami that had submerged the northeastern territory of the Sun Moon Empire several days earlier.
This is something the Sun Moon Empire can't hide no matter what.
The tsunami that swept across the continent further intensified the already frequent uprisings within the Sun Moon Empire.
Before the Heavenly Soul Empire's plan to split the Fighting Spirits could be realized, the Sun and Moon Empire was already showing signs of splitting into two separate kingdoms.
Xu Tianran's princely brothers, using Xu He's name, denounced Xu Tianran as cruel and tyrannical, which is why the Ice Sea riot was triggered.
Those who bet on Xu Tianran accused Xu He of being the old Yang.
It was precisely because Xu He, who came from Shrek Academy and trained evil soul masters, returned that he incurred the wrath of the heavens.
The higher-ups at Sun Moon Palace know perfectly well what exactly the evil spirit masters are all about.
However, this is a battle for public opinion, and neither side can or should admit it.
Therefore, they can only desperately try to smear the overseas Holy Spirit Church.
Although the Holy Spirit Church is not short of this dirty water, and is even happy to accept it.
Xueheng had considered many possible outcomes, but he never imagined that this natural disaster would be caused by human intervention.
The reason for this was that the Sun and Moon Empire wanted to blow up the far north.
His gaze toward Electrolux was filled with deep shock and contemplation.
"The Sun Moon Empire is currently embroiled in internal strife," Xue Heng mused, "which is indeed the best time to gather intelligence."
"Their internal strife won't last long. Although the princes who support Xu He are numerous, they are all a rabble."
"Given Xu Tianran's previous control over the sun and moon, this internal strife should be quelled within a year at most."
"Therefore, we must seize this window of opportunity."
Xue Heng looked at Huo Yuhao: "Azure Dragon Marquis, has the Far North agreed to your plan?"
Since Xue Di proposed forming an alliance with Tian Hun, Huo Yuhao, as the core of the connection between the two sides, must obtain the consent of both parties before taking any action.
After a long silence, Xue Di finally looked at Electrolux and said, "The Far North agrees."
"With a demiplane containing a high priest, Yuhao's safety is not a problem."
"Then the Heavenly Soul is also fine."
Xue Heng said directly, "But there is one condition. You must ensure your own safety and evacuate immediately if things go wrong."

"Blow up the armory if you can, but don't force it."
"I understand," Huo Yuhao said solemnly.
Subsequently, Xue Heng and Xue Di engaged in a three-day discussion regarding the matter of the Far North and the Heavenly Soul Alliance.
Electrox, the nominal High Priestess of the Ice God, did not participate in the discussion.
This was a matter between the Far North and the Heavenly Soul. He claimed that he had long ago relinquished power to the Snow Emperor, and only acted as a witness with Huo Yuhao.
Finally, the two sides reached a number of agreements, including but not limited to intelligence sharing, dispute resolution mechanisms, clear boundaries and the establishment of buffer zones.
Meanwhile, Xue Heng established a trade zone in the northern border of Tianhun, appointing Su Tong as acting district head and the Prime Minister as the de facto district head.
The Heavenly Soul Society, under the pretext of promoting the large-scale development of the Northern Territory, secretly provides the far north with necessary supplies such as medical care and food.
In the far north, some mineral veins will be opened up, and as long as the living environment of the soul beasts is not damaged, the Heavenly Soul can send miners to mine them.
This mineral deposit, coveted even by the Sun and Moon Empire, is now undergoing its first full-scale development.
