Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 365 Nine Sections of Jade
“Earl Asson, you do have the ability to foresee things.”

The Earl of Goren's disheveled voice caused the Earl of Asson's face to darken.

How come he didn't die inside?
Earl Asson was tempted to kill him to silence him, but upon seeing the guards beside Earl Goren, he immediately changed his story.

"I only realized something was wrong when I was inspecting the supplies, and by the time I wanted to inform you, it was too late; in military campaigns, miscalculations are inevitable, and I can only offer suggestions. The final decision rests with you, the commander-in-chief."
While I certainly bear some responsibility for miscalculations in this operation, the one who truly needs to take responsibility is you, the commander-in-chief.

"you……"

Count Goren was furious and wanted to kill Count Asson right in front of him, but his guards stopped him in time.

“My lord, if we kill Earl Asson and return to the Heavenly Dou Palace, we will truly have no way to defend ourselves.”

Earl Goren forcibly suppressed his anger and planned to return to the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace to report the whole matter. Since he could not investigate Earl Yason's purpose himself, he would leave it to His Majesty to handle.

Count Goren, being able to represent the Goren family in court, was by no means a useless fool.

Although I am furious at this moment, it is clear that keeping Earl Asson alive would be more useful.

"Why did you kill them all?" Lei Zhen couldn't help but ask when he saw that Viper had deliberately spared them.

"I'm not sure if my judgment is correct, so I need to test it again and again. As it stands, it seems to be pretty much what I guessed."

The Viper Clan excels at espionage and infiltration, which allowed them to obtain a wealth of secret information for the Thunder God Sect.

Recently, the relationship between the Heaven Dou royal family and the Thunder God Sect has deteriorated, so it's natural to pay close attention to the situation in Heaven Dou City.

Viperthorn sensed something was amiss from the intelligence he had gathered and immediately took action.

Unable to be sure if his guess was correct, he needed to test the waters step by step, but everything was unfolding as he had foreseen, which made Viper even more certain of his guess.

Normally, Viper would discuss things with Bingju, because Beast Mountain and Thunderclap's ideas were too simplistic and not suitable as people to discuss things with. Thunderclap was better, as he could occasionally offer different perspectives.

Viper watched as Earl Goren left with his guards and then spoke to one of his clansmen beside him.

"You protect him from the shadows; you must ensure his safe return to Tiandou City."

"Yes."

Afterwards, Viper Xin and Lei Zhen quickly returned to the Thunder God Sect.

Before even returning to the sect's territory, they could already sense the lingering soul power in the air.

"This soul power..." Lei Zhen's pupils contracted; this level of soul power...

Viper Xin also sensed the residual soul power. His situation was the same as Lei Zhen's, but he reacted earlier and headed towards the sect's territory.

When they returned to the sect, they saw that the five secondary peaks had been damaged to varying degrees.

"Elder Viper, Elder Lei." Meng Shu had just sensed two powerful auras again, which really startled him. Fortunately, it was Viper Xin and Lei Zhen, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lord Long, what happened at the sect?"

Meng Shu recounted what had happened, but when facing Ghost Leopard Douluo and Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo, seven of the fourteen Soul Douluos were severely injured, four were killed, and all seventeen Soul Saints perished at the hands of Ghost Leopard Douluo.

"What? The Spirit Hall's Soul Masters attacked the sect?" Viper Xin's face showed surprise. He had suspected something was wrong, but thought it was unlikely and subconsciously ignored it.

Viper Xin was already 80% certain about the situation inside Tiandou City, given that the Spirit Hall's Soul Masters had attacked the sect.

"Damn it, from now on, I will kill any Soul Master from the Spirit Empire that I see."

Lei Zhen was furious. Not only were his clansmen killed, but the foundation of the Thunder God Sect was also damaged.

"I am very grateful for Lord Long's help in this matter," Viper Xin said to Meng Shu. To step in and lend a helping hand in a time of crisis, despite the pressure from the Martial Soul Empire, was a truly genuine favor.

In today's world of Soul Masters, how many Soul Master factions dare to offend the Spirit Hall?

"That's how it should be, no need to be polite."

Viper Xin nodded, understanding what Dragon Lord meant.

When the two returned to the main hall on the main peak, they saw Tie Li in the main seat. Beast Mountain was seriously injured, but with his physical strength, he recovered quickly after taking the pills. Bing Ju's condition was much more serious. He looked listless, and if he encountered any special circumstances, he could not exert less than 60% of his combat power.

"Lord."

"metropolitan."

"How's it going with you?" Tie Li asked calmly.

In his confrontation with Qian Daoliu, he was injured by the holy fire and purification power of Qian Daoliu's Angelic Martial Soul. Fortunately, the destructive attribute of the Black Prison Extinction Dragon was even stronger and could not erode his soul power. He was only injured and the impact was not significant.

"There is indeed a problem within the Heaven Dou royal family."

Viper Xin recounted his discoveries over this period, along with the current situation of the Heavenly Dou army, including his analysis of the internal affairs of the Heavenly Dou royal family.

The Giant Python Canyon was not only used to ambush the Tiandou army, but also to observe the situation of the army's high command.

Tieli nodded, saying that having grasped this much information was enough.

As for the rest, that's up to the Heavenly Emperor to investigate.

After talking with Viper and the others, Tie Li temporarily returned to the Thunder Pool on the main peak.

The nine-sectioned jadeite lay on a pile of rubble, its scarlet eyes fixed on Tieli.

"You're becoming more and more extraordinary," Tie Li said calmly.

He took out a storage ring, a soul tool, wrote down the situation and analysis that Viper Xin had discovered on a piece of paper, put it in the ring, and put the ring on the snake's tail. He believed that Dugu Bo would receive it soon.

Nine-section jade tightened its grip on the ring's tail, then quickly disappeared from Tieli's sight.

Yang Wudi was skilled in alchemy and poison making, and often borrowed Nine-Section Jade from Dugu Bo. During this process, the Nine-Section Jade was nourished by some immortal herbs, and its bloodline changed, making it more and more spiritual. It was no longer just a simple Nine-Section Jade.

From the Thunder God Sect to Heaven Dou City, the Nine-Section Jadeite can travel in just half a day.

"hiss!"

Nine-sectioned jadeite entered the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace with great familiarity and was able to sense Dugu Bo's exact location.

"Come back so soon?"

Dugu Bo was a little surprised; such efficiency was beyond his expectations.

Immediately remove the ring from the nine-section jade tail and take out the envelope inside.

Soon, Dugu Bo's expression changed repeatedly. The contents of the letter were so numerous that even he, a titled Douluo, could not have discovered more than a tenth of it through secret investigation.

A hint of fear appeared in Dugu Bo's eyes, a fear of both the Spirit Hall and the Thunder God Sect.

Despite the Heaven Dou Emperor's meticulous precautions against the Spirit Hall, the Spirit Hall still managed to seize the opportunity to infiltrate, and even members of the royal family betrayed him.

How long has the Thunder God Sect been around? Yet they managed to gather so much intelligence without anyone noticing, without any disturbance. If it weren't for the information provided by Tie Li, he wouldn't have believed that the Thunder God Sect could achieve this.
