Chapter 903 Is this guy addicted to being roasted?
"We will become the first ruler and his minister in history to conquer the entire world!"
"We will stand shoulder to shoulder with all the rulers and ministers of ancient times, and even surpass them!"
"The entire continent will be adorned with the flags of the sun and moon!"
Xu Tianran became more and more excited as he spoke, even gesturing wildly.
"Wherever the sun and moon shine, that is our territory! A true empire on which the sun never sets!"
"Join me, Nanxiao!"
"Click~"
The only response to Xu Tianran was the sound of Ye Nanxiao munching on sunflower seeds.
The sound of sunflower seed shells cracking was extremely faint, but in this situation, Xu Tianran heard it clearly.
Ye Nanxiao didn't even bother to acknowledge him.
This person has an exceptionally large ambition, so large that he wants to devour the entire world.
He has no shortage of skills, abilities, and cultivation, and even commands a large elite force.
Not only does he have his own power, but he also has a large inheritance left by his father. Kong Deming alone is a super strong fighter.
However, this seemingly perfect situation was completely ruined by the protagonist.
Ye Nanxiao slowly munched on sunflower seeds, watching the boy wearing boxing gloves swinging his fists at the match.
In fact, let alone a teenager, Huo Yuhao's bulging muscles made him look anything but youthful.
Seeing that Ye Nanxiao ignored him, Xu Tianran's lips twitched violently. Although he was annoyed, he suppressed it and gave up.
Anyway, for him, if he could win Ye Nanxiao over by saying a few words, he would make a huge profit; if he couldn't, he would still be satisfied with disgusting Ye Nanxiao.
Xu Tianran had specifically studied the business model of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce and discovered this mindset principle: "You may make a fortune, but I will never lose money."
"Nanxiao is truly indifferent. The more I am in a high position, the more I feel that it is a place that chills people's hearts."
"Then you can sit on the floor instead of the dragon throne."
"..."
"In this vast imperial court, all I see is intrigue and backstabbing, and unspoken deals among officials. There is not a single person who truly cares about the empire!"
"Then you should chop them all up and confiscate their property, get rich quick and enjoy it for ten years."
"..."
"I can see, Nan Xiao, your innovations in soul tools are enough to lead soul tool technology down a completely new path! The Hall of Offerings has sufficient resources, and even the resources of the entire Sun Moon Empire can be opened to you!"
"Innovation doesn't belong to individuals. Since Your Majesty is so interested, why not support the Tang Sect in purchasing tens of thousands more soul tools? Rare metals are fine as payment. This will still promote the development of soul tools. I'll make the decision and give you a 20% discount, how about that?"
"..."
Xu Tianran knew that Ye Nanxiao was deliberately ignoring the meaning behind his words and had never even considered his invitation.
Is it possible that the resources of the mighty Sun Moon Empire are inferior to those of a small sect like the Tang Clan?
When discussing the Sun and Moon Dynasty, can't you find an official who can compare to Ye Nanxiao?
Actually not.
As emperors, they were born with a desire to conquer, expand their territories, recruit talented people, and control the army. Emperors throughout history have hoped to grasp these things firmly.
As for Xu Tianran, Ye Nanxiao's work style and personality were exactly to his liking.
The ministers of the Sun and Moon Dynasty are all old. They have been living in comfort for too long under the protection of the previous Sun and Moon Emperor. They only think about how to make money and bleed the empire dry, and only think about strengthening themselves!
However, the suggestion to raid other people's homes, cut prices, and get rich quickly for ten years is not bad.
Xu Tianran needs a few knives to eliminate those ministers in the imperial court, and he also needs powerful new-generation generals like Ju Zi to expand his territory.
Xu Tianran may appear to be the rightful heir to the throne of the Sun and Moon Emperor, but those ministers who lived longer actually knew how he obtained the dragon throne.
It was this group of people who knew of his notorious reputation.
They obeyed because they were afraid of Xu Tianran's terrifying methods.
But in places far from the capital, where the emperor is far away, how many people remain truly loyal?
He needs to cultivate a large number of his own knives, that is, his core team.
Even if he's the emperor, can he still do everything himself?
Xu Tianran wanted that when he conquered the world, he wouldn't need to worry about anything, whether it was the front line or the rear.
Faced with Xu Tianran's long-winded recruitment speech, Ye Nanxiao picked at his ear and realized that what this cunning man really wanted was a perfect tool.
A perfect tool who can fight, withstand attacks, do research, make money, and is loyal and righteous.
If it were someone else trying to recruit him, even if it were Xu Jiawei, Ye Nanxiao would listen attentively.
However, Xu Tianran is a notorious schemer who prioritizes profit above all else. He is willing to use any resource at his disposal for a transaction, and he is ruthless and merciless.
If you do things for him, you might end up being traded away as part of a deal someday.
Xu Tianran wasn't in a hurry. He hadn't really thought Ye Nanxiao would agree anyway, but he was still happy to continue if it affected Ye Nanxiao's mindset.
He smiled slightly and asked, "Nanxiao, if you don't agree, is there something you're worried about? If it's about your family, I will bestow upon you the best mansion, located on First Avenue, patrolled day and night by the Imperial Guards."
"I heard that there was an explosion in the soul tool forging furnace last time. Are your guards aware of that?" Ye Nanxiao chuckled.
Xu Tianran's expression changed slightly; it was a false explanation that was only released after the news of the Xu Zhong incident had been suppressed.
In reality, it was Xu Zhong's underground vault that had the problem.
This old codger actually tried to cover it up after the incident, until the secret guards came to his door yesterday and revealed what had happened.
Xu Tianran didn't care how much Xu Zhong lost; the main concern was that this guy knew some of the strategic plans, and if those were leaked, his plans would be disrupted.
The thought of this incident flashed with murderous intent in Xu Tianran's eyes.
Xiao Nanye was also someone who refused his offer to recruit him.
It should be said that his secret guards couldn't even find out anything about this person.
It's as if he vanished from the face of the earth, never having been born.
The latest novel is first published here!
Xu Tianran was very confident in the bodyguards he had trained, most of whom had followed him through the bloody battles of the past.
If even his secret guards couldn't find Xiao Nanye, he had a guess: this Xiao Nanye didn't actually exist, or perhaps it was a false identity used by someone to travel the martial arts world.
The intelligence gathered by the Dark Guards from the three great empires revealed that among the high-level geniuses between the ages of twenty and thirty, none met the goal of dual cultivation as a Soul Master and Soul Instructor!
Looking at Ye Nanxiao in front of him, Xu Tianran suddenly had a bold guess.
What if Xiao Nanye is Ye Nanxiao?
After the idea suddenly popped into his head, Xu Tianran didn't find it absurd.
Because he always trusted his intuition. If he hadn't trusted his intuition back then, he would have died in the Second Prince's conspiracy and wouldn't have sat on the dragon throne carved with the sun, moon and stars.
However, what is currently lacking is more direct evidence.
What is the connection between the name Xiao Nanye and Ye Nanxiao?
Xu Tianran was unaware that Ye Nanxiao possessed a language that did not belong to this world.
Ye Nanxiao glanced at the shadow beneath Xu Tianran's hovering seat, and felt a sense of being watched.
That old codger, Shadow Douluo Xue Chen, must have been watching him the whole time. I wonder how this guy survived last time.
"Xiao'er, that shadowy figure is the same human expert who ambushed us last time," Xue Di warned.
"I understand. This old bastard can only glare at us now. Although I don't know how he survived last time, it won't be so easy for us to make a move next time. He knows about you and Bajiao, but he doesn't know about soul spirits and thinks they are my soul skills," Ye Nanxiao replied in his mind.
He didn't focus his attention on Xu Tianran, that cunning person; the competition had already reached a fever pitch.
After realizing that Vina's martial soul possessed mental abilities, Huo Yuhao quickly made adjustments.
Although Vina's martial soul is the brain, and she has also practiced the special development ability of the Body Sect, awakening her Body Martial Soul, her spiritual power is still not enough in front of Huo Gua Mian, especially in front of Brother Gua who is carrying a million-year-old worm!
We still need to practice!
After Huo Yuhao figured out Vina's abilities, the powerful spiritual energy bestowed by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm directly turned into an overwhelming force.
Before Jiang Nannan could break through, Vina had already exhausted her mental energy and slowly collapsed.
Without Vina's command, the rest of the Snow Demon Sect team began to fall apart.
Even though Long Aotian took over command, Huo Yuhao, undisturbed, activated his precision strike mode.
Every move of the Snow Demon Sect team was clearly visible under the enhanced mental detection.
Later in the fight, He Caitou and Huo Yuhao temporarily held off Long Aotian, while Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi worked together to create opportunities for Jiang Nannan and Wang Dong'er, gradually defeating the other members of the Snow Demon Sect.
Long Aotian understood that ever since the team's first commander, Vina, fell, their chances of losing this match were sealed.
Even after using his trump card and transforming into a Silver Martial Soul, he still couldn't withstand the Martial Soul Fusion Technique of Huo Yuhao and the woman with the butterfly wings.
"It's really frustrating, thank you all, it was a great game."
After the match, Long Aotian and his team members came to congratulate the Tang Clan and shake hands with them.
As the team captain, Bei Bei shook hands with Long Aotian and said, "You guys are amazing too! This competition was a great opportunity to get to know each other, and I hope that our two sects can have exchange activities in the future."
"Of course, I'm very familiar with your sect's vice sect leader. I'll ask him to help me order soul tools next time."
After saying that, Long Aotian patted Bei Bei on the shoulder, looked at Huo Yuhao, nodded, and said, "You are also very strong. In terms of mental strength, you are even stronger than Nan Xiao. With you two brothers here, I'm afraid no one in this era can defeat you."
Huo Yuhao felt elated; finally, someone admitted that he was stronger than Ye Nanxiao.
He had always been overshadowed by Ye Nanxiao, but now that he was being acknowledged and praised, he became more talkative and engaged in friendly conversation with Long Aotian.
This scene was witnessed by Xu Tianran and Ye Nanxiao.
After the match ended, the soul-guided shield on the arena was removed, and the sounds from the audience naturally reached the arena. Since both of them had high cultivation levels, they were able to hear the conversations between the two teams on the arena.
