Douluo: The blue phoenix cries loudly, and the wind whistles through the air
Chapter 468 Self-defeating
Previously, Davis Ken cooperated with Chen Ping's actions because he had this in mind.
On the surface, Dai Mubai is indeed a complete fool, but is Tang Xiao of the Haotian Sect also a fool?
the answer is negative.
Tang Xiao was able to take over the entire Haotian Sect when it was in turmoil, and develop it from a complex situation to its current state, even producing six Title Douluo.
Davis doesn't believe that he lacks skill.
According to the Clear Sky Sect, Dai Mubai "disappeared" because he went out with Tang San and others to seek opportunities to quickly improve their strength.
This matter is most likely true. If it's a lie, it will be of no benefit to the current development of the Clear Sky Sect.
It's okay that Dai Mubai is a hands-off manager; the important thing is that Tang Xiao will plan some things for him.
Davis is indeed currently riding high, but all his actions are undoubtedly in the open. Dai Mubai, on the other hand, is secretly accumulating power with the help of the Haotian Sect.
Over time, the situation of the enemy being in the dark while we were in the light became very unfavorable for Davis.
This attack was unexpected, and the enemy was truly intent on killing him.
Fortunately, he had met Chen Ping at the Soul Master Competition, and since the other party had no intention of killing him, he had the opportunity to operate in the shadows.
As for Chen Ping himself, he hadn't thought that far ahead.
The Duke of Doron and his group of clever men complicated the problem and even changed its nature.
……
During the few days he hid in the cave, Davis thought a lot.
The Spirit Hall was behind this attack on him. As for whether Wang Tian was a member of the Clear Sky Sect, he didn't know yet.
However, he is now a dead man. Investigating the truth of this matter would inevitably lead to a direct encounter with the Star Luo Royal Family's investigators. If the Spirit Hall discovers that he is still alive, Chen Ping's warning would likely come true.
Davis wasn't stupid, and naturally didn't want Dai Mubai to get a huge advantage for nothing.
Next, he planned to lie low for a while and secretly do some things through Zhu Zhuyun.
After that, it was time to wait for Wu Qi to appear.
According to Chen Ping's account, Wu Qi must be one of the high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall, and the Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect are mortal enemies.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Joining forces with Wu Qi to destroy the Haotian Sect doesn't seem like a bad idea. And without the Haotian Sect, Dai Mubai's other supporters will hardly amount to anything.
Thus, the overall situation is settled.
Chen Ping is not good at the behind-the-scenes maneuvering, but his act of kindness has indeed had a significant impact on the situation on the mainland.
On one side, Davis's supporters were targeting the Clear Sky Sect, pressuring the Star Luo Emperor to pressure them. On the other side, some of Davis's staunch supporters were secretly plotting a major event for him.
Of course, these are all for later.
……
Davis's fate is unknown, and Zhu Zhuyun has lost her appetite and lives alone in the garden, completely losing her spirit.
After several days of investigation, Duke Doron packed up the evidence and brought it back to Star City. His soldiers, along with the local soldiers, searched for Davis's whereabouts in the mountains.
For this reason, there were very few people protecting Zhu Zhuyun, and the courtyard was not well-defended.
Meanwhile, seeing that the search efforts were weakening, Davis couldn't wait to leave the cave.
After all, there was no food in the cave, and if they continued to starve, they would probably really die.
Not long ago, he spent some time in the military and was very familiar with its structure and unit designations.
When he changed into a soldier's uniform and blended into the search party, he did not reveal any flaws.
After learning where Zhu Zhuyun lived, he rushed to the courtyard that very night. Due to the weak defenses, Davis easily slipped into the courtyard during a shift change.
Zhu Zhuyun had lost her appetite for many days and was extremely weak.
Perhaps due to hunger, she had fallen into a coma.
When she woke up and noticed Davis in front of her, a wave of emotion surged through her heart.
But she didn't have time to think and immediately said, "Weiss, you shouldn't be here."
Being caught in the vortex, Zhu Zhuyun's abilities had already been honed.
The weak security around the courtyard was a deliberate act by Duke Doron.
Firstly, it was to test whether Davis was still alive; secondly, it would make it easier for Davis to convey his plan to Zhu Zhuyun.
After their conversation, Zhu Zhuyun's face immediately turned ugly. "Weiss, isn't this a fake death escape plot you arranged?"
Davis nodded emphatically, then took some food from the table. "Zhuyun, have something to eat first."
"This time, there was an acquaintance among the assassins. He was probably forced to participate in the assassination mission, so he spared my life before the other assassins arrived."
"As for some of the details, I cannot say for the time being. It involves a wide range of issues, and there are some things I cannot verify yet."
"However, Duke Doron's idea is good. I can take advantage of this by staying in the shadows and doing a lot of things."
As a prince, the most important thing is to maintain influence.
The Duke of Doron was his most loyal supporter, and letting him know that he was still alive was no big deal.
Furthermore, they can leverage the Duke of Doron's influence to stabilize the emotions of other supporters.
This assassination attempt had to be staged for real. But they couldn't announce Davis's death publicly, or his political career would be over.
Disappearance—that's a good reason.
……
Pope's Palace.
Wang Tian led his team back to report.
As expected, the Star Luo royal family was furious and did not take action against the Haotian Sect, but this did not happen.
On the contrary, Dai Tianfeng intended to smooth things over.
In response, Bibi Dong questioned Wang Tian, "Did you kill Davis or not?"
Wang Tian responded repeatedly, and at the same time took out all the soul tools and other items that proved Davis's identity.
Chen Ping stepped forward, bowed, and replied, "Your Holiness, I personally witnessed Davis fall off the cliff, and my tortoise shell severed his heart meridian; he has no chance of survival."
Bibi Dong certainly didn't trust Chen Ping, since they weren't on the same side.
But right now, based on Wang Tian's explanation, she couldn't find any reason to refute it.
Hu Liena suddenly realized something and asked, "Wait, Senior Wang, you said that after finding Davis's body and confirming his identity through the soul tool, you burned the entire body; and then brought back the soul tool, and even the token that proved his identity?"
Wang Tian nodded in confirmation.
Davis's body was like a ripped-out watermelon, his features completely unrecognizable. Without these tokens, how could he possibly return to report?
Hu Liena's expression froze. She turned to Bibi Dong and said, "Teacher, this is troublesome. Senior Wang and the others cleaned up the scene too thoroughly. I'm afraid the Star Luo Empire won't be able to find any trace of Davis."
If no body was found after digging three feet into the ground, then the only explanation is that the person is missing. In that case, the Star Luo royal family would certainly not go to great lengths to punish the Haotian Sect, nor would there be any internal strife.
Wang Tian, unaware of the problem, hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, is there a problem?" (End of Chapter)
