Tang San and his core forces evaporated, leaving the Justice Alliance with an empty shell of the Star Luo Empire.
This news, under Ning Liu's deliberate control, did not spread throughout the mainland immediately, but first caused intense discussions among the top leaders of the coalition.
In the main hall of Xingluo Palace, the atmosphere was solemn.
"Tens of thousands of people, as well as mountains of supplies, just disappeared out of thin air?"
Yang Wudi still found it incredible, he sat down on the chair and said in a dull voice,
"Where can they hide? Although the continent is large, it is impossible to hide so many people without leaving any traces!"
"Could they be hiding in some special space, such as a world like the Killing City?"
Poison Douluo Dugubo guessed.
"Impossible."
Bibi Dong immediately rejected the idea,
"The energy and law power required to build an independent space that can accommodate tens of thousands of people would probably be at the god level."
"Even if Tang San defies the will, there is no way he can do it in such a short period of time."
"What's more, if he has such strength, why should he run?"
Everyone's eyes are focused on Xiao Wu.
"Tang San is a serious problem for us and must be eradicated. But now, our more important thing is to take care of the situation in front of us."
"In addition to the three basic points just now..."
His eyes swept over Ning Fengzhi and the officials sent by the Tiandou Empire.
"The Xingluo Empire has ceased to exist in name only. The core members of the Dai royal family have been taken away by Tang San, leaving only a bunch of outsiders. Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to unify the continent. We must act immediately to truly merge the two empires into one!"
Ning Fengzhi nodded, his eyes shining with excitement.
As the leader of the Qibao Glazed Sect, his lifelong wish is to bring the sect to glory.
A unified continent will undoubtedly bring unprecedented development opportunities to the sect.
"Ning Liu is right! We should immediately send people back to Tiandou City to discuss the merger with Emperor Xueye! With our current prestige and strength, he has no reason to refuse!"
"No, there is no need to discuss."
Ning Liu Shaking his head,
"Emperor Xueye has handed over all the military and political power of the Tiandou Empire to me. Now, as the 'Grand Marshal who protects the country and protects the people', I can decide this matter with full authority."
He stood up and walked to the center of the hall, his voice spreading to every corner.
"I announce that from now on, the Tiandou Empire and the Star Luo Empire will merge to form the "Douluo Federation"! The monarchy will be abolished and a federation will be formed, which will be jointly governed by Liulitian, Wuhundian, Haotian Sect, Qibao Liuli Sect, and other meritorious sect families!"
This decision shocked everyone present.
Abolish the monarchy?
Form a federation?
This is the first of its kind!
"Who dares to cause chaos in the current continent? Who can cause chaos?"
"The old era has passed! Imperial power will only bring disputes and corruption. In the future, the Douluo Federation will respect strength and merit, with the capable ones at the top and the mediocre ones at the bottom!"
His eyes glanced at Bibi Dong and Tang Chen.
Bibi Dong's eyes were full of brilliance. She didn't expect Ning Liu to be so courageous.
Whundian has always wanted to replace the two empires, but it also wanted to establish a new "Martial Soul Empire".
Ningliu, on the other hand, jumped directly out of this framework and proposed a brand new model.
Tang Chen stroked his beard and smiled, his eyes full of admiration.
This young man does not stick to tradition and has great courage!
Ning Liu ignored the consternation of the old ministers and continued to announce his governing policy.
"First, benevolent rule! After the establishment of the Federation, taxes on civilians will be greatly reduced, especially agricultural taxes, so that every hard-working common people can have food and clothing!"
"Second, rule of law! Promulgate the Federal Uniform Code, and princes who break the law will be treated the same as the common people. Sin! All soul masters, no matter which sect they come from, must abide by the law. It is strictly forbidden to kill innocent people and oppress civilians! Violators will be severely punished by the federal law enforcement team! "
"Third, disarm and return to the fields! The war is over, and there is no need for the bloated armies of the two empires."
"Except for retaining the most elite federal legions, the remaining millions of soldiers will all be disarmed and returned to their fields! The federation will distribute land and resettlement allowance to them, allowing them to engage in production and create value for the federation!"
Policies one by one came from Ning Liu's mouth, each one pointed directly at the mainland's long-standing shortcomings, and each one was full of courage and foresight.
The atmosphere in the hall slowly changed from the initial shock to excitement and yearning.
The eyes of those soul master generals who were born as civilians lit up when they heard "cutting taxes" and "distributing land".
And people with an upright personality like Yang Wudi couldn't help but cheer loudly when they heard that "princes who break the law are guilty of the same crimes as the common people"!
Ningliu's combination of fists not only appeased the lower class, but also restrained the upper class, and drew an unprecedented and beautiful blueprint for the future federation.
· Under the strong promotion of Ning Liu, the integration of the mainland is proceeding at an unprecedented speed.
Three days later, the news of the official announcement of the establishment of the Douluo Federation spread to every corner of the continent.
At first, people still had a skeptical and wait-and-see attitude.
But when the federal decree was actually implemented, the entire continent was boiling.
Barak Kingdom, a remote town.
A former Star Luo Empire soldier named Li Si returned to his hometown dragging a leg injured in the war.
He thought he would be greeted by poverty and contempt, but he did not expect that the federal official at the town hall would personally hand over a fertile land contract and a heavy bag of gold soul coins into his hands.
"This is the settlement allowance and land given to you retired soldiers by the Federation. Marshal Ningliu said that you have shed blood for the mainland, and the Federation cannot let the heroes cry anymore!"
Li Si took the land deed and looked at the gold soul coins in the bag. A seven-foot-tall man knelt on the ground on the spot, facing the direction of Soto City, wailing loudly.
Soto City, once the branch of Wuhun Palace, has now been transformed into the First Federal Law Enforcement Court.
A soul leader who molested women on the street because he was the son of a certain small sect leader was captured on the spot by the patrolling law enforcement team.
In court, no matter how he moved out of his family background, he was eventually sentenced to three years of hard labor.
The civilians watching burst into loud cheers.
For the first time, they felt that the law could really protect them.
Tiandou City, the largest chamber of commerce.
The president, Fatty Zhang, looked at the new trade route plan in his hand and smiled from ear to ear.
After the merger of the two empires, all tariff barriers were removed.
His goods can be transported from the northernmost tip of the continent to the southernmost tip without any hindrance.
The profits from this have more than doubled than before!
"Grand Marshal Ning Liu, what a god!" Fatty Zhang sighed sincerely.
In just half a month, the entire continent has taken on a completely new look.
In the fields, there are farmers working hard; in the city, there are caravans traveling back and forth; in the academy, there are young soul masters who are full of vigor.
Everything is prosperous and full of hope.
Ning Liu stood at the highest point of Liuli Tian, overlooking everything, and his heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
However, he was not fooled by the peace in front of him.
He knew that somewhere unknown, a huge threat was quietly growing.
"Ning Liu."
Bibi Dong's figure appeared beside him.
“Any news?”
Ning Liu asked.
