DD2- Chapter 252: Should Huo Yuhao Be Handed Over to the Holy Spirit Church?
Kong Deming's opinion at this moment is presented on the screen.
[After leaving the Holy Spirit Church, Xu Tianran returned to the Sun Moon Imperial City.]
[He went directly to the palace, and after the report was over, he came to the palace to meet the Sun Moon Emperor.]
[After meeting the Sun Moon Emperor, Xu Tianran first asked about his well-being.]
[After that, the Sun Moon Emperor noticed that Xu Tianran's intentions were not pure, so he did not continue to waste time with Xu Tianran.]
[He directly asked Xu Tianran in front of him, "Okay, Tianran, if you have anything to say, just say it. Don't worry."]
[After hearing what Sun Moon Emperor said, Xu Tianran replied respectfully, "Yes!"]
[Then, he did not delay any further and directly expressed his thoughts: "Father, I wonder what you think of Huo Yuhao?"]
[After hearing what Xu Tianran said, Emperor Sun Moon replied directly, "Huo Yuhao? A super genius with extraordinary talent. He helped our Sun Moon Empire win the Soul Master Competition and made great contributions to our Sun Moon Empire."]
[Xu Tianran said, "But he is too dangerous, isn't he?"]
[After hearing what Sun Moon Emperor said, he smiled and replied, "Tianran, you still know how to figure out my thoughts, as always!"]
[He said to Xu Tianran, "Yes, Huo Yuhao is indeed dangerous."]
["I have been worrying about how to treat Huo Yuhao in the future."]
["If we don't use him, it would be a waste of talent, and my Sun Moon Empire does lack such talents."]
["But if we use him, he is not a member of my Sun Moon Empire."]
["This matter has always troubled me."]
[After hearing what the Sun Moon Emperor said, Xu Tianran replied directly, "Father, I came here today at the request of my teacher."]
[Upon hearing this, the Sun Moon Emperor's expression suddenly became solemn.]
["Master Ye? What does she want?"]
[Xu Tianran said, "My teacher is interested in Huo Yuhao and wants to recruit him into the Holy Spirit Church. She said that if you are willing to let him go if the war with the Three Kingdoms of Douluo really breaks out, their Holy Spirit Church will support our Sun Moon Empire unconditionally."]
[After hearing this, the Sun Moon Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly. "What she means is that if you don't agree, once the war breaks out, they will simply stand by and watch, or even attack us in secret?"]
[After the Sun Moon Emperor finished speaking, he turned to Xu Tianran and asked, "Tianran, what do you think?"]
[Xu Tianran replied to the Sun Moon Emperor, "I think I should listen to my teacher's advice."]
["Not to mention that the Holy Spirit Church is currently powerful in our country; even if our Sun Moon Empire is fully committed, it would be hard to win if we were to attack."]
["Let's just consider whether Huo Yuhao is worth the Sun Moon Empire turning against the Holy Spirit Church for him."]
["If he were a native of our Sun Moon Empire, it would be fine because he would work wholeheartedly for our country."]
["But he is not. Who knows if he is willing to contribute to the construction of our country? Who even knows if he will help the Douluo Three Kingdoms to counterattack our country in the future?"]
[Xu Tianran grew more and more fervent. By the end, he said to the Sun Moon Emperor, "So, I think it's better to heed my teacher in this matter. It's not that I want to boost others' ambitions and destroy my prestige, but the current Huo Yuhao is not enough for us to offend the Holy Spirit Church."]
[After listening to Xu Tianran's words, the Sun Moon Emperor remained silent.]
[He did not make a direct decision but replied, "Okay, I understand your opinion."]
[Then he spread his hands and said to Xu Tianran, "However, this kind of thing is not trivial after all, so it cannot be dealt with casually. You go back first and let me think about it."]
["Yes!" Xu Tianran agreed immediately after listening and then left.]
[With Xu Tianran's departure, the Sun Moon Emperor promptly sent someone to invite Kong Deming over.]
[He informed Kong Deming about everything that had happened and then began to ask him,]
["Mr. Kong, this is what happened."]
["The Holy Spirit Church has now set its sights on Huo Yuhao, and the prince advocates that I hand him over."]
["I wonder what your opinion is, Mr. Kong?"]
[Kong Deming pondered for a long time after hearing this.]
[In fact, he also recognized the gravity of the matter.]
[It's just that Kong Deming's attitude towards Huo Yuhao is very different from a few months ago.]
[After exhaling, he said to the Sun Moon Emperor, "Your Majesty, in fact, a few months ago, Dean Jing Hongchen had already raised this concern with me."]
["At that time, he was reluctant to truly teach Huo Yuhao because of his identity."]
["But back then, my opinion was to teach him patiently because I was sure that Huo Yuhao would never be a spy from the Douluo Three Kingdoms, and I also wanted Dean Jing Hongchen to engender a sense of gratitude in Huo Yuhao through the teaching at the academy so that he would ultimately join Illustrious Virtue Hall and be useful to my Sun Moon Empire."]
[The Sun Moon Emperor asked again after hearing this, "What about now? Has Mr. Kong changed his mind?"]
[Kong Deming nodded and said, "I have changed."]
[The Sun-Moon Emperor asked, "Why?"]
[Kong Deming replied, "Because of Shrek Academy."]
[He continued, "It was not until a competition that I learned that Huo Yuhao is originally from Shrek."]
["Although he has nothing to do with Shrek now, his previous experience in Shrek Academy demonstrates that this person is indeed extremely difficult to subdue."]
[Speaking of this, Kong Deming expressed great regret: "If this person could be subdued, then my opinion would be to keep him at all costs."]
["After all, our Sun-Moon Empire is now cooperating with the Holy Spirit Church. To put it bluntly, it's like driving a tiger to swallow a wolf!"]
["But whether it is a wolf or a tiger, they are both dangerous. If our Sun Moon Empire wants to develop sustainably, we must not put the knife into the hands of the Holy Spirit Church. Therefore, under the premise of being able to subdue Huo Yuhao, I must advocate for keeping him, as he is likely to become our trump card against the Holy Spirit Church in the future."]
["However, what the prince said is also reasonable. Huo Yuhao today is not worth making us hostile to the Holy Spirit Church."]
["So I have a suggestion."]
[The Sun Moon Emperor replied to Kong Deming, "What suggestions does Mr. Kong have?"]
[Kong Deming replied, "I suggest that Your Majesty confer a title upon him and grant him the qualification to join Illustrious Virtue Hall on the grounds of their victory this time."]
["If Huo Yuhao is conferred, it means that he is willing to join our Sun Moon Empire, and we must protect him at all costs this time."]
["But if he is unwilling to be crowned, it means that we cannot subdue this individual. In this case, we might as well do him a favor and leave his affairs alone."]
