Chapter 80: Time for change

Once he decides on what to do next, Bai Long asked his women to collect as much information about the Zhu Kingdom as possible, and began carefully studying them to try and understand as much of it as possible. 

Cao Ning, on the other hand, was in the process of easing the tension and fears of the prominent clans inside the Bai Kingdom, by using Yailing who was the current head of the Zheng Clan. 

After which, she planned on getting rid of everyone whom she suspected to be a spy working for the other Kingdoms. 

Linxin and Zhenya, however, were considerably much freer, and only had to double check the reports Linxin's slaves brought her before giving it to the even more free Bai Long. 

Reading through the books and books of information, which was collected by all the spies who had managed to infiltrate the Zhu Kingdom, Bai Long came to a conclusion that their military strength wasn't much higher than the Bai Kingdom's. 

However, if he used the techniques, pills, and arrays from the Ring of Darkness, Bai Long was confident in reducing the losses of the army when fighting by at least 70%.

But, if Bai Long's plan to destroy the Zhu Kingdom from the inside out worked out, the losses would be further reduced by another 20%, and open up the possibility to conquer the Zhu Kingdom without even having the need to fight. 

Still, even after spending a whole day without sex and reading reports upon reports to understand as much about the Zhu Kingdom as possible, Bai Long didn't find the smallest clues which might point him in the direction of the mysterious treasure which may or may not exist. 

Thinking about this, Bai Long stopped reading the reports and came to a decision. 

"I'm going to sneak into their palace."

Turning around in surprise, Linxin was about to say something when her eyes widened in realization. 

"You're going to use a Yin Puppet to find out what you want to know."

"Yup."

Indeed, Bai Long wasn't personally going to put himself in danger to find out if the treasure existed or not. 

He was just going to turn a cultivator who had an acceptable strength into a Yin Puppet, and then use him to sneak inside the Zhu Kingdom's Palace. 

Next, he'd try to secretly snoop around and find out if there was a vault, a hidden room or any such thing without getting found. 

But even if he did get found, Bai Long wouldn't think much about it and just destroy the connection between him and the Yin Puppet. 

And then, depending on what he found out, Bai Long would decide if he was going to launch a war on the Zhu Kingdom, try and steal the treasure, send a second Yin Puppet to continue snooping, or completely forget about the Zhu Kingdom. 

Thus, Bai Long told Linxin to find him a cultivator who was in the Martial General stage, so that he could turn them into a Yin Puppet. 

... 

The very next day after the King, and two princes died, most of the Bai Kingdom's residents gathered inside the capital city near the palace and waited for their next ruler, Queen Cao Ning's coronation ceremony. 

The ceremony was quite simple and straightforward, since Cao Ning didn't want anything exaggerated and useless. 

All that happened was Cao Ning praying to the Heaven and Earth, after which she was gowned with the traditional dragon robes and a crown. 

Once this was all over, Cao Ning set out to deliver the speech she promised to do so. 

"My subjects, it is time for change."

"I know that the previous King, and the princes passing away yesterday was a terrible and devastating event."

"However, we cannot let that hold us back!"

"It is not the time for us to grieve, but time to move forward!"

"If we don't start moving forward now, we'll forever remain as the weakest Kingdom in the Xiao Dao Continent!"

"And I'm not satisfied, with it!"

"I'm not satisfied with ruling the weakest Kingdom of the Continent!"

"I'll only be satisfied when my Kingdom, rules the CONTINENT!!!"

"But this can only happen when I, you, and everyone changes!"

"Only then can we become the Kingdom which rules this continent!"

It might be due to the fact that Cao Ning was a woman, or her ideas were well received, but either way, once she finished speaking, the whole crowd erupted in loud cheers showing their support to her idea.

As for the about the details about the possible war against the Zhu Kingdom, Cao Ning didn't say anything about it.

This was because right now the Kingdom's morale was pretty high, and maintaining this morale was important.

And knowing about the possibility of a war happening in the future, even if it was against the second Kingdom in the continent, it would definitely cause the morale of everyone to plummet.

Thus, Bai Long told Cao Ning to not say anything about the war until he knew that a war would happen.

...

Looking at all of this from top of the palace, Bai Long began thinking about how much his Constitution would've benefited if he was standing up there as the new King.

Still, even if he was given the chance to go up there ad the King, Bai Long wouldn't have taken it.

After all, he prioritized his future goals, over the growth of his current strength.

And right now, him laying low was quite necessary for his future plans to proceed as smoothly as possible.

Furthermore, rule the continent.

Those words sounded quite sweet and tempting to Bai Long, who began seriously considering if he should try and do it.

Bai Long had only told Cao Ning to make a speech which would make the citizens feel excited, and want to live in the capital city.

But, even though he hadn't expected for her speech to be about ruling the continent. It did manage to achieve the goal he wanted. 

This was because for a Kingdom to grow stronger, it had to go to war against the neighbouring Kingdoms.

Doing so would make the cities which were on the outskirts of the Bai Kingdom more susceptible to becoming war zones. While, the capital city, on the other hand, would be the one which would prosper the most when a Kingdom grew.

Therefore, even though the possibility of the Bai Kingdom going to war was not guaranteed to happen at any time soon, the population living inside the capital city was sure to rise.
