Chapter 42: Imperial Vassals

The Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

"The crown prince was assassinated by the Titan, the patriarch of the Liyi clan?" When the Snowy Night Emperor heard the news, he almost didn't jump up.

Although he gave birth to many children in his life, many of his children "died early", and in the later years of his life, he has only two sons, one daughter and three heirs.

Although the world of Douluo Continent is more similar to Lu Yuan's previous Western medieval worldview, the two empires of Douluo Continent do not consider female heirs among the heirs who are considering inheriting the throne.

Therefore, Princess Xue Ke is not qualified to inherit the throne of the Snow Night Emperor at all.

And among the remaining two heirs of the Snowy Night Emperor, Avalanche behaves more like a gentleman, without any ability, in short, in a word, "I don't look like a human king".

Judging from the current performance of Avalanche, unless there is no one to inherit the situation, the Snowy Night Emperor will not pass on the throne to Avalanche.

The performance of "Xue Qinghe" in all aspects makes the Snow Night Emperor impeccable, and he is the heir he identifies.

But if the "Snow Qinghe" was really killed by the assassins, the Snow Night Emperor would definitely be furious, and under the anger of the Snow Night Emperor, it would definitely set off a bloody storm within the empire.

And when he heard the news, the first thing that the Snow Night Emperor thought of was whether this would be his younger brother, that is, Prince Xuexing, who had always not supported Xue Qinghe, but supported Avalanche.

Over the years, the contradictions between the Xuexing Friends and the princelings have almost been put to the fore in the court.

If you wait until the day when "Xue Qinghe" really takes the throne, I am afraid that the henchmen of Prince Xuexing's faction will be fiercely cleansed.

Although "Xue Qinghe" may not do that, but the Xuexing faction may plan this kind of assassination of Xue Qinghe, so as to make Avalanche take the throne under the condition of "not afraid of 10,000, just in case".

After all...... If this is done, it is impossible for the Snow Night Emperor to blame Avalanche, because he is such an heir, even if he doesn't like him anymore, he can't pass on the throne to another person.

As soon as he thought of this, the Snowy Night Emperor's face suddenly turned cold.

"This matter happened on the side of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, so let the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect handle it with full authority." He snorted coldly and said, "Spread the decree to Ning Fengzhi, let him be fully responsible for this matter, and be sure to arrest all the assassin accomplices, the remnants of the traitorous party, and the behind-the-scenes commanders......"

"Your Majesty!" Before the Snowy Night Emperor could finish speaking, at this moment, the voice of the leader of the Praetorian Guard came from outside the hall.

"What's the matter? In! The Snowy Night Emperor frowned slightly, but still said lightly.

The leader of the Praetorian Guard suddenly walked in slowly, came to the main hall, and knelt down on one knee, "Outside the palace, the Liyi clan...... The current patriarch of the Liyi clan, Tai Nuo, led a group of members of the Liyi clan to kneel naked and shouted for His Majesty's forgiveness. ”

"And they say...... The Titans have been separated from the Liyi clan for a long time, and I hope that Your Majesty will forgive them for their great disrespect for the sake of the Liyi clan for many years of service to the empire! ”

"For this reason, they are willing to give up all the property in the clan and become vassals of the royal family!"

In an instant, the Snowy Night Emperor was stunned, and then his eyes moved slightly.

This condition is indeed a bit tempting, don't look at the Snow Night Emperor is the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, it seems that the wealth and power are unmatched in the whole empire, but in fact, the empire does not mean that it belongs to the imperial family.

I think it's the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, although the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect obeys the orders of the Snow Night Emperor, but the wealth and personnel of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, can the Snow Night Emperor directly call it?

No.

There is a world of difference between the imperial and the royal.

Moreover, the Heaven Dou Empire was originally different from the Star Luo Empire, the Star Luo Empire had many strong royal families, and he could rule the entire Star Luo Empire by himself.

The Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, on the other hand, mostly relied on external forces that were loyal to them, and without those strong who were loyal to them, the Heaven Dou Empire royal family would not be able to rule the huge empire.

Therefore, in later generations, the Heaven Dou Empire was finally split into two empires, while the Star Luo Empire has always been an empire as a whole, although the imperial family has changed halfway, the imperial family that can rule the empire has always been strong.

The Heaven Dou Imperial Family is weak, and ruling the empire depends on external forces, and the Snowy Night Emperor actually doesn't know that this is a hidden danger, but he is powerless to change this status quo.

The resources of the Heaven Dou Empire had long been divided among the major sects and nobles, and the Heaven Dou Imperial Family not only lacked genius soul masters.

The Snowy Night Emperor's own cultivation talent was mediocre, and a person who sat on the throne of the Heaven Dou Empire actually only had forty-six levels of soul power, which was probably difficult for anyone to imagine.

And his heirs, Avalanche and "Xue Qinghe" cultivation, are also quite mediocre, and his daughter Xue Ke is even very likely to be an ordinary person according to the description of the original text, at most the cultivation of the soul master to the great soul master.

Even the most powerful soul master in the royal family, that is, Snow Night's younger brother, Prince Xuexing, is only a soul emperor of about sixty levels. (I really can't find out Prince Xuexing's cultivation, so I made it up casually, probably at the level of a short man like the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, but I basically didn't see him shoot in the back, and it is estimated that it is the level that can't be taken in the later stage when the Soul Saint is a basic combat power unit.) )

Moreover, Xuexing has been staying in this cultivation for many years, and it is impossible for the cultivation to continue to improve.

The strength of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family itself is a foregone conclusion, but if some excellent soul masters can be introduced to marry and improve their bloodline from generation to generation, then maybe in the future generations of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, many genius soul masters will be born to support the Heaven Dou Empire.

But generally speaking, the outstanding soul masters of the Heaven Dou Empire basically came from the sect family, and it was impossible for the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, the Haotian Sect, and the Blue Electric Overlord Sect to allow their bloodline martial souls to leak out.

Passive illegitimate children are not good, let alone active marriages with the royal family.

The Snowy Night Emperor could only look at those outstanding soul masters who did not have a family sect, but the excellent soul masters of this mutated martial soul would be absorbed by the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect.

Therefore, the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect is indeed a vampire lying on the back of the Heaven Dou Empire in a sense......

This is also the reason why the Snowy Night Emperor wanted to snatch Lu Yuan with Ning Fengzhi before, Lu Yuan's talent is so strong that he doesn't need to look forward to the future generations at all.

When Lu Yuan grows up, he will be able to support the next emperor to compete with the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, the Blue Electric Overlord Sect and other sect families.

It's a pity that when Ning Fengzhi is the first to strike, the Snow Night Emperor will rob people again, that is, he will directly tear his face with the Seven Treasure Liuli Sect.

Under the restrictions of some rules, it is impossible for the Snow Night Emperor to forcibly marry Lu Yuan.

And now that he heard the request of the Liyi clan to become a vassal of the royal family, his thoughts about a strong royal family itself resurfaced.
