Douluo: The blue phoenix cries loudly, and the wind whistles through the air

Seahorse Douluo moved swiftly.

According to Duke Connor, he knew that the entrance to the vault was beneath one of the collapsed houses.

Now that we've decided to take action, we can't afford to drag things out.

With his title of Douluo, he was extremely fast and easily took down an outer patrol team in a single encounter.

At the same time, he rushed toward the entrance of the treasure vault at an extremely fast speed, easily killing any obstacles he encountered along the way.

Arriving at the entrance to the treasure vault, Seahorse Douluo stared at the iron gate before him, unsure of what to do.

It's clear that this iron gate is a special kind of soul tool; without the corresponding key, it's very difficult to open it.

Seahorse Douluo clenched his fist, about to strike, when he noticed a weak point where the door frame met the wall. He punched out, and the wall shattered, revealing the passage inside.

Seahorse Douluo was overjoyed and quickly darted into it.

Meanwhile, on a small road three hundred miles outside of Tiandou City, Yang Wudi, along with a group of powerful members of the Juyi Sect's Guardian Hall, had been waiting for a long time.

Tang Shang was no young man; he was already an adult when the Haotian Sect closed its gates. Now, upon seeing Yang Wudi, he recognized him at a glance.

To avoid giving himself away and to conceal his identity, he stepped forward with a smile and asked, "Are you Elder Yang Wudi?"

Upon receiving an affirmative reply, he smiled and said, "Elder Yang Wudi, have you just finished a mission? Unfortunately, we have just received a major mission from His Majesty and need to get to the mission location as soon as possible."

"Elder Yang Wudi, farewell."

Seeing that the other party showed no intention of making way, Tang Shang asked with some confusion, "Elder Yang Wudi, what is the meaning of this?"

He was very worried that Yang Wudi would start a fight here because Seahorse Douluo had stolen the Juyi Sect's attention from the royal family.

Yang Wudi remained expressionless and said in a cold tone, "Coincidentally, we have just gone out on a mission. But unfortunately, our target is you."

Tang Shang paused for a moment, then said, "Elder Yang Wudi, I don't understand what you mean. Our elder brother is right behind us. He is a close friend of your sect leader. I hope you won't put our elder brother in a difficult position."

Yang Wudi chuckled, "If I'm not mistaken, Seahorse Douluo hasn't left Heaven Dou City. Let me guess again, Seahorse Douluo is probably stealing from the royal treasury right now. Sending you out on a mission is actually a way for you to escape."

Tang Shang immediately realized that this was all a scheme set up by Dugu Bo.

He no longer cared about how his identity was exposed, and immediately shouted, "Brothers, let's fight our way out!"

It is highly likely that the Juyi Sect is in cahoots with the Spirit Hall, otherwise how would they know their origins and then secretly take action against them!

Turning back to Heaven Dou City to inform Seahorse Douluo was no longer feasible. At this moment, how many people could escape depended entirely on their own fate, but as long as they managed to escape, they could bring the news back to Seagod Island.

But if Yang Wudi dared to tell the truth, how could he not have any backup plan?

This time, not only did the Gathering Righteousness Sect send three Soul Douluos, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also sent several Soul Douluo powerhouses.

While the Soul Masters on Seagod Island could be considered elite, they were utterly insignificant in the face of these Soul Saints and Soul Douluo powerhouses.

This one-sided massacre did not last long. Yang Wudi and the others' only task was to ensure that all of these people died here, leaving no one alive.

……

Seahorse Douluo walked through a long passageway, but the end was not the Heaven Dou Empire's treasure vault, but a large natural cave.

After searching with his spiritual power to no avail, Seahorse Douluo instantly realized he had been tricked.

He felt a pang of regret; he shouldn't have trusted Duke Connor, whom he'd only met once. It was too late to say anything now; thankfully, he'd moved the people out beforehand, otherwise the losses would have been devastating.

The mission has failed, and there's no point in continuing. We need to return to Seagod Island as soon as possible and discuss countermeasures with the other Holy Pillar Douluos.

With this thought in mind, he no longer had any lingering attachment to the Vast Ocean Universe Cover and quickly rushed out through the passage he had come from.

When he stepped back onto the ground, what he saw horrified him.

Ning Fengzhi not only didn't leave Heaven Dou City, but he even brought Sword Douluo to ambush him. Furthermore, the Royal Knights had been mobilized, completely surrounding the street.

Ning Fengzhi sighed and shook his head. "It's truly disappointing. I never expected that a titled Douluo would engage in such petty theft. It's a complete disregard for His Majesty's expectations of you."

Whether it was a test or a setup, Seahorse Douluo had no time to care.

He had only one thought in mind right now—run!

Before Jian Daochenxin could make a move, he flashed away, activated his Martial Soul True Body, and quickly broke through the encirclement.

Even so, Jian Daochenxin still had no intention of making a move.

Ning Fengzhi said repeatedly, "Uncle Jian, don't make a move inside the city. Wait until we're outside the city before taking his head!"

……

Seeing that there were no pursuers behind him, Seahorse Douluo breathed a slight sigh of relief, but before he could stop and rest, he ran into Dugu Bo head-on.

Previously, Dugu Bo did not make a move because he was wary of the spies that Seahorse Douluo had planted in the shadows. Making a rash move would expose their relationship with the Spirit Hall.

Now, all the men brought by Seahorse Douluo have been killed, and they are still attacking the royal family's important territory in broad daylight.

Legally, he then had a reason to take action.

"I am truly disappointed. I thought you could be patient and wait a while before revealing your weakness. I did not expect that you would be so impatient after I had only let out a few hints."

Seahorse Douluo, belatedly realizing what was happening, angrily cursed, "Dugu Bo, you were the one who secretly orchestrated all of this!"

"I have no grudge against you, why are you doing this?"

Dugu Bo shook his head slightly. "The people of Seagod Island are truly arrogant. On your very first day in Heaven Dou City, I figured out your background. You don't really think that my Juyi Sect's intelligence department is just for show?"

"If you were truly dedicated to serving the Empire, I would be happy to have another colleague. Unfortunately, you are wicked and possess the Empire's secrets, so I cannot keep you here."

Before he could make a move, Jian Daochenxin arrived in an instant.

"Old Poisoner, you talk too much."

After saying that, the Seven Kill Sword rose up from the ground, its tip pointing directly at Seahorse Douluo.

Dugu Bo shrugged. "I'm too lazy to take action. I'm too lazy to waste my soul power on such a despicable person."

Chen Xin didn't say much, making no attempt to conceal his aura as a level 97 peak Douluo.

Seahorse Douluo felt immense pressure. Even in his Martial Soul True Form state, he was powerless against the almost materialized sword energy.

They tried to escape, but found that the battlefield was blocked by the sword energy of Jian Daochenxin, making it impossible to break through the encirclement.

He died without ever knowing how Dugu Bo had discovered his identity, nor did he ever suspect any connection between the two men and the Spirit Hall. Or rather, he simply didn't believe the Spirit Hall knew of his arrival. (End of Chapter)
