More importantly, she didn't dislike Lin Chuan; in fact, she admired him to some extent.
After all, when Xue Ke was still a princess, she had met Lin Chuan several times at celebration banquets.
Especially after learning about the other person's heroic deeds, they had already developed a sense of admiration for him.
It was only after he inherited the throne that he concealed this emotion.
But now that Ning Fengzhi said that, his former admiration surged back into his heart.
However, it was still a little embarrassing for Xue Ke to agree to this.
"Ning Qing, let's discuss this matter later."
"Also, has the Star Luo Empire been acting strangely lately? I heard that there have been evil spirit masters causing trouble there."
Xue Ke abruptly changed the subject.
Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi seemed to have guessed something, chuckled slightly, and continued the conversation.
"Your Majesty, this is indeed true."
"Send people to be on high alert. We absolutely cannot allow evil spirit masters to infiltrate the territory of our Heavenly Dou Empire and endanger our people!"
Xue Ke's expression was serious, clearly showing her deep hatred for evil spirit masters.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will continue to pay attention to this matter."
Xue Ke nodded gently, "With Ning Qing here, I can feel much more at ease."
At this point, she sighed softly again.
"It hasn't been long since the change of imperial power in the Star Luo Empire. The newly enthroned Dai Mubai's foundation is unstable. Perhaps in order to establish his authority, he might do some things."
"We must pay close attention. If the Star Luo Empire makes any unusual moves at this time, the Empire should also react as soon as possible."
"I obey!"
Ning Fengzhi nodded seriously.
Although he knew that Dai Mubai had once been a member of Shrek Academy and even a classmate of his daughter.
But that was several years ago.
It's hard to say what the other person looks like now.
Moreover, according to the information Ning Fengzhi collected, Dai Mubai abandoned Zhu Zhuqing, with whom he was engaged, and ran away alone, twice.
It's hard to believe that someone like that would cherish old friendships.
Just as the emperor and his minister were discussing important matters.
A sudden ripple came from the space.
An ancient banyan tree suddenly appeared.
"Your Majesty, Feng Zhi, something has happened!"
Ning Fengzhi's expression immediately hardened. "Uncle Gu, what happened? Has the Spirit Hall made another move?"
Gu Rong shook his head. "It's not the Spirit Hall, it's the Star Luo Empire."
"Your Excellency Bone Douluo, what happened to the Star Luo Empire?"
Xueke couldn't help but ask a question as well.
Gu Rong stopped keeping them in suspense, "According to the news sent back by the border guards, there seem to be signs of a large-scale military operation by the Star Luo Empire, and they have begun to move towards the empire."
"what?!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Ke and Ning Fengzhi's expressions changed almost simultaneously.
"What is the Star Luo Empire trying to do? Is it going to start a war with my Heavenly Dou Empire?"
Xue Ke couldn't help but let out a soft roar.
It should be noted that Dai Mubai has only been in power for a few months, less than half a year.
The mobilization of such a large army at this time is bound to raise suspicions.
"Your Majesty, now is not the time to speculate about what the Star Luo Empire is planning. We must make preparations as soon as possible."
Ning Fengzhi immediately reminded him in a loud voice.
Xue Ke snapped out of her daze, took a deep breath, and her expression became unusually serious.
Her originally beautiful face now exuded a strong sense of heroism.
"Pass down the order: the border troops must be on high alert and closely monitor every move of the Star Luo Empire. If they have any intention of invading our Heavenly Dou Empire, they must stop the Star Luo army at the border."
"Furthermore, Marshal Xuan Gelong has come to see me!"
The actions of the Star Luo Empire naturally attracted the attention of the entire continent.
Lin Chuan had just returned from the Star Dou Great Forest when he learned of this news from Shui Lanxin.
"Are they already preparing to make their move? They really have no patience at all!"
Is he already planning revenge after only a few months since Dai Mubai ascended to the throne?
Has Tang San already become a god?
After all, that guy was able to escape from Xiong Jun back then, so his strength after being resurrected is obviously not weak.
With his ability to devour, his cultivation level will likely advance by leaps and bounds.
The fact that they've suddenly made such a big move clearly shows they're confident in their plans.
"Xiao Chuan, what should we do now?"
Shui Lanxin couldn't help but ask.
Lin Chuan gently shook his head, "No need to worry about it, I'll take care of everything. Besides, the Star Luo Empire's primary target should be the Spirit Hall."
"If they really intend to deal with Snowfield City, they either need to communicate with the Heavenly Dou Empire or declare war."
"It's still early!"
It's just a small commotion; there's no need to make such a fuss.
"Dean, please keep an eye on the situation in Tiandou City."
"Xiao Chuan, are you worried?"
Shui Lanxin realized what was going on and couldn't help but show surprise.
Lin Chuan smiled and shook his head. "It's just a guess. Although it's unlikely, it's always better to be safe than sorry."
Hearing this, Shui Lanxin nodded.
"Don't worry, I will have someone keep an eye on Tiandou City."
"Then I'll have to trouble the dean!"
After reporting the matter, Shui Lanxin hurriedly turned and left.
The peaceful days are almost over.
Now is a crucial time that will determine whether they can survive this turmoil, so they cannot afford to be careless.
"Was the Star Luo Empire the first to make a move?"
"It looks like we need to find a time to set off, but before that, there's one more thing we need to take care of."
Lin Chuan quickly returned to his own courtyard.
A thought came to my mind.
A light suddenly shone between his brows.
The blue-patterned cauldron landed steadily on the ground.
Lin Chuan reached out and grasped, and the fiery red elixir from the Azure Patterned Cauldron appeared in his palm.
The next moment, a red phantom appeared to the side.
"Human, why did you call me out again?"
Lin Chuan responded softly, "Fire Dragon King, now it's time for you to fulfill your promise!"
"You've broken through level 100?!"
The Fire Dragon King's dragon soul sensed something and showed a look of surprise.
Lin Chuan nodded, "That's right, now it's your turn to become my spirit ring."
"You wouldn't change your mind at the last minute, would you?"
"of course not!"
The Fire Dragon King responded without hesitation.
"Okay, let's start now!"
"Furthermore, just like the Water Dragon King, I will imbue your most powerful divine skill into your soul ring, which contains all your understanding of the power of the fire element!"
Lin Chuan put forward his demands.
The Fire Dragon King's expression changed. "Human, you really are incredibly greedy."
