Chapter 261 The Storm Is Brewing
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong remained silent for a moment, seemingly weighing the pros and cons. After a while, she slowly stood up and said in an icy voice:
"Those two beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest can't escape. Let's deal with the people from Tianxing Academy first, then we can head to the Star Dou Great Forest."
As she spoke, her gaze shifted to Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei beside her.
"Ghostly Demon, Moon Pass, this mission to wipe out the Heavenly Path Academy is entrusted to you two. Make sure to eradicate it completely and leave no future trouble."
Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of seriousness in each other's eyes. After a moment of silence, Chrysanthemum Douluo spoke first, his tone cautious:
"Your Majesty, Ning Fengzhi and the others from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School have already fled into Heaven Dou City. If they join forces with Dugu Bo from Heavenly Path Academy, then the enemy will consist of three Title Douluos."
"I'm afraid that the two of us, Old Ghost and I, will be unable to handle this."
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong frowned slightly, clearly aware of the problem.
She nodded, agreeing with Chrysanthemum Douluo's assessment.
"Hmm, you're right. I didn't consider things thoroughly enough."
After a moment's thought, she made additional arrangements, saying:
"Alright, I'll add Ghost Leopard Douluo and Demon Bear Douluo to support you two. Four against three, we have the advantage in numbers."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Bibi Dong still felt somewhat uneasy.
She knew that there were differences even among Title Douluos. The Sword Douluo Chen Xin in the opposing camp had unparalleled attack power, the Bone Douluo Gu Rong had unpredictable defense, and the Poison Douluo Dugu Bo's poison was a real headache. The actual combat power of these three was probably far beyond that of her four ordinary elders.
With four against three, the odds of winning still seem low.
After a moment's contemplation, a resolute glint flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes, and she made an even more significant decision. She said in a deep voice:
"Very well, this Soul Hunting Operation concerns the long-term plan of our Spirit Hall, and cannot be allowed to fail. The Grand Elder also fully supports this matter."
She raised her head, her gaze seemingly piercing through the roof of the hall, looking towards the direction of the offering hall.
"I will personally inform the Grand Elder that the core members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School have escaped and may be hiding in Heaven Dou City, joining forces with Heavenly Path Academy to put up a last-ditch resistance. I will ask him to send two more Elders to assist you in this mission!"
To relocate the offerings in the main hall?!
These words shocked both Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.
The old monsters in the Hall of Offerings are far stronger than ordinary elders. They rarely make a move. If they take action, this trip will be foolproof!
"Yes! As His Holiness the Pope commands!"
Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo responded in unison, their voices filled with confidence this time.
Bibi Dong's move was undoubtedly intended to crush Tianxing Academy, along with the remnants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who might be hiding there, in one fell swoop with overwhelming force!
.........
Meanwhile, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus family.
Tonight, the sky is as if it has been splashed with thick ink; the stars and moon are nowhere to be seen, and it is exceptionally dark.
The castle and manor of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, one of the once-powerful three sects, have now been reduced to a raging inferno.
The towering flames illuminated the broken walls and scattered corpses, while agonizing screams mingled with the sounds of collapsing buildings, creating a hellish scene.
On the edge of the raging inferno, a group of men in black stood silently, coldly watching their masterpiece. They were the Spirit Hall team carrying out the Soul Hunting Operation.
This attack on the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family was far more successful and thorough than the attack on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. All of this was thanks to the inside help of a traitor.
And this traitor who betrayed the entire clan was none other than its deputy clan leader, Yu Luomian!
At this moment, Yu Luomian was bowing and scraping, his face full of fawning smiles, frantically trying to please the several captains of the Spirit Hall, as if the ruins in front of him had nothing to do with him.
Among these elders, there was one figure that caught his attention.
It was none other than the Demon Bear Douluo, with whom he had a complicated relationship!
The two stood quite close to each other, their eyes occasionally glancing at one another, only to meet again after a brief moment.
Yu Luomian's eyes held an indescribable complexity, a mixture of ingratiation, embarrassment, and perhaps even a hint of...resentment?
When Demon Bear Douluo's eyes met Jade Luo Mian's gaze...
His body seemed to shift slightly unnaturally, and his large, round eyes were filled with turbulent emotions—anger, frustration, and a hint of something indescribable.
The strange atmosphere between them.
How could they possibly hide it from the other, more perceptive elders around them?
An elder from the Spirit Hall nudged his companion with his elbow, lowered his voice, and said with undisguised mockery:
"Hey, look at those two... the way they're exchanging glances. It seems all those rumors circulating outside, like chasing each other in the woods and being completely open with each other, might not be entirely unfounded!"
Upon hearing this, the elders all revealed tacit, strange smiles, their gazes sweeping back and forth between Yu Luomian and Demon Bear Douluo, full of amusement.
The once desolate edge of the battlefield was now filled with an absurd and eerie atmosphere.
Upon hearing the discussion, Demon Bear Douluo's face instantly turned red, like a pig's liver. He glared fiercely at the elders, only to be met with even more unrestrained laughter.
Yu Luomian was even more embarrassed, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. However, at this moment, he could only bury his head even lower, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
Just then, a cardinal strode over and respectfully reported:
"Elders, His Holiness the Pope has issued a new order, commanding Elder Demon Bear and Ghost Leopard Douluo to depart immediately for Heaven Dou City to await further instructions and carry out subsequent missions."
Upon hearing this, Yu Luomian, who had been standing to the side trying to keep a low profile, suddenly brightened up. He immediately stepped forward, forced a sincere smile, and bowed towards the elders, especially the Demon Bear Douluo, saying:
"Elders, my daughter, Liu Erlong, is currently in Heaven Dou City. She... she founded an academy called Shrek Academy. I wish to accompany you two elders to Heaven Dou City so that I can persuade them to recognize the times, follow the trend of the world, and submit to the Spirit Hall as soon as possible. I believe that with my involvement, we can save a lot of trouble."
His words were presented in a grand and righteous manner, portraying him as a person of great integrity who was willing to persuade his own daughter to surrender for the sake of the greater good.
Standing to the side, Ghost Leopard Douluo frowned slightly, instinctively wanting to refuse.
Bringing an outsider who has just betrayed his family and whose background is not yet fully known to participate in a secret operation is obviously against the rules and is full of uncertainty.
However, before he could utter his refusal, the Demon Bear Douluo beside him, as if afraid he would object, preemptively agreed in a booming voice:
"Okay! Then you can come with us later."
Demon Bear Douluo's response was quick and urgent, and it seemed less like he was approving Yu Luomian's request and more like he was subconsciously protecting him.
Or rather, some inexplicable entanglement prevented him from simply refusing.
"puff--"
As soon as he finished speaking, an elder who had been struggling to hold back his laughter finally couldn't help but burst out laughing first.
This was like lighting a fuse.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Ouch!"
"Yes, yes, this arrangement is perfect!"
Immediately, the elders of the Spirit Hall present could no longer hold back and burst into laughter, laughing so hard they were doubled over, their laughter filled with mockery and amusement.
Their gazes swept back and forth between Yu Luomian, who looked embarrassed, and Mo Xiong Douluo, whose face had turned a deep purplish-red and who wished he could swallow back what he had just said.
Looking at the chaotic scene, Ghost Leopard Douluo shook his head helplessly, swallowing back the refusal that was on the tip of his tongue. Well, since that fool Demon Bear agreed, he might as well take him along. He just hoped that nothing more outrageous would happen.
Amidst an uncontrollable burst of laughter.
This strange squad heading to Tiandou City was thus formed.
…………
Meanwhile, within Tiandou City, all was silent.
Two figures stood silently on a high rooftop, their robes fluttering in the night wind. They were Dugu Bo and Ning Fengzhi.
Both remained silent, gazing up at the crescent moon in the night sky, obscured by thin clouds, appearing somewhat hazy and cold. Their expressions were unusually solemn under the moonlight.
A suffocating sense of oppression filled the air.
It has a sense of impending doom and impending storm.
The destruction of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was still fresh in their minds, making the Spirit Hall's next target obvious. This once bustling capital city now seemed to harbor countless deadly threats in their senses.
Suddenly, Ning Fengzhi seemed to remember something, paused slightly, and turned his calm gaze from the moon to Dugu Bo beside him, speaking softly:
"Poison Douluo, are you waiting for that kid to come back?"
"But...but even if Tang Chuan can really get back in time, with his own strength, if the Spirit Hall is determined to attack your Tianxing Academy, I'm afraid he will be powerless to reverse the situation."
"Listen to me. To save the academy and the lives of those children, why don't you disband the academy in advance and take the core members to your Sunset Forest for a while? It's full of poisonous formations there, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Perhaps there's still a glimmer of hope there."
However, faced with Ning Fengzhi's reasonable advice, Dugu Bo slowly shook his head. Then, he looked up at the sky and let out a loud laugh. The laughter carried far into the silent night sky, carrying an indescribable arrogance and certainty.
"Hahahaha! Sect Leader Ning, what are you saying?"
"For some reason, I have a lot of confidence in this lad."
"I have a strong feeling that he will definitely come back. And he will bring us, and the Spirit Hall... a huge surprise!"
