Chapter 189: Thorny Porpoise Douluo, Snake Spear Douluo
As expected, as the caravan entered the valley, Dai Weis, with his Ice and Fire Evil Eyes, spotted the enemies lurking on the outskirts.
Among the Spirit Hall's assassins seemed to be earth-attributed spirit masters, skilled at digging holes underground and in the rock faces, allowing other spirit masters to hide in caves and tunnels.
Once the leader gave the order to attack, they transformed into a cavalry force, swarming over and dispatching the enemy in a single blow.
Dai Weis was puzzled that these men hadn't ambushed the caravan even after it entered the valley. But
Dai Weis soon understood the reason, muttering, "Are they waiting for us to fall into their trap, then attacking us from both sides and annihilating us all in one fell swoop?"
Dai Weis had already guessed Ju and Ghost Douluo's intentions. They planned to wait until everyone entered the valley and then immediately surround them! A two-pronged attack would prevent them from escaping and prevent them from fleeing.
But now that Dai Weis had spotted the ambushed enemy, he naturally wouldn't let the Spirit Hall's plot succeed.
He stepped out of the carriage and approached General Lie Tianhu, the leader. Seeing him approach, Lie Tianhu quickly saluted and said, "Your Highness, any instructions?"
"Uncle Tianhu, halt the army! The enemy is approaching! Prepare for battle!"
"What?"
Lie Tianhu was shocked and looked at the standard-bearer beside him. The standard-bearer immediately understood and waved the White Tiger Legion's flag, signaling the army to halt.
The golden flag fluttered in the wind, and upon seeing the raised White Tiger flag, the army instantly stopped. At the same time, Dai Weis suddenly attacked.
He turned his head to look at a rock face in the front left of the valley, and instantly concentrated his soul power. His second purple soul ring suddenly flashed!
"Second Soul Skill: White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!"
Whoosh—
in an instant, Dai Weis exhaled ten golden beams of light, piercing the void and blasting towards the hard, smooth rock wall.
Boom!
The beam struck the rock wall with a resounding explosion, instantly shattering it, reduced to countless rubble by the onslaught of the beam. The remaining beams then pierced through the rock wall, striking the enemies hidden within the cave entrance.
The soul masters had never expected Dai Weis to discover them, let alone his sudden attack. Furthermore, the cave was narrow, only five meters long and one meter wide, accommodating only four or five people. They had no place to hide.
Furthermore, the golden beams were moving at an extremely fast speed, leaving them no time to evade.
"Ah!"
"Save me!"
Accompanied by painful cries, the enemies within the cave were completely slain, their bodies riddled with bloody holes, from which crimson blood flowed like streams...
Dai Weis opened his icy, fiery eyes and peered into the cave, only to see the bodies of five men in black lying in a pool of blood.
To ensure the success of the assassination, they had donned masks. To Dai Weis' surprise, among the five were two Soul Emperors and three Soul Kings.
One could only say that the Spirit Hall was indeed worthy of its name. It was indeed filled with experts, so extravagant that it could even use Soul Emperor and Soul King level Spirit Masters as cannon fodder.
Dai Weis raised his lips slightly and sneered, "Everyone! Now that you're here, why are you hiding here? Wouldn't it be better to come out and see us?"
Empowered by his soul power, Dai Weis's voice echoed throughout the valley. The White Tiger soldiers guarding the sixteen academies heard his voice and prepared for battle.
They held sharp spears in one hand and loaded flintlock rifles in the other, with three grenades strapped to their waists.
"Hmph, as expected of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! So cautious!"
A gentle voice echoed through the valley, and four figures flew out from either side. Soaring through the air—the hallmark of a Titled Douluo!
Dai Weis gazed at the four figures in the air, his brow furrowed slightly. Two of those Titled Douluos were his most familiar figures, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei.
Yue Guan had uttered the gentle voice.
After looking away from Yue Guan and Gui Mei, Dai Weis looked at the two men beside him: one fat, the other thin.
The one was portly, with short, blood-red hair and an aged, wrinkled face. He must have been at least fifty years old.
He was a burly figure, stronger than the other three! He wore a suit of golden armor, the chest of which was etched with a blood-red pufferfish, while the shoulder armor on each side also resembled two pufferfish covered in poisonous spines.
Dai Weis recognized him the moment he saw him: one of the Spirit Hall's elders, the Thorny Porpoise Douluo. His real name was Cixue, and his spirit was the Thorny Porpoise, a Level 92 Control-type Titled Douluo.
The thin figure beside Cixue was his old partner, Shelong, Snake Spear Douluo, whose spirit was the Snake Spear and a Level 92 Attack-type Titled Douluo.
"Bibi Dong is truly cautious! Last time, she sent Juhuaguan and Guimei to assassinate me, but they returned unsuccessful. This time, she's dispatched four Titled Douluo at once. She truly thinks highly of me!"
Dai Weis glanced back at the carriage in the middle of the convoy and murmured, "Luckily, I summoned the two elders from the Clear Sky Sect this time. Otherwise, even with just my grandparents, we might not have been able to defeat them."
Gazing at the ant-like Dai Weis, Yue Guan couldn't help but chuckle. "Your Highness, the Crown Prince is so cautious. It seems that nearly dying at our hands last time has left a deep psychological scar on you!"
In contrast to Yue Guan's relaxed expression, Gui Mei's face was ashen, and he gazed at Dai Weis solemnly.
He had just discerned that Dai Weis's second spirit ring was a purple, thousand-year spirit ring.
Five days ago, Bibi Dong had sent her maids to pay close attention to Dai Weis's spirit ring configuration, explaining that there might be something wrong with his second and fourth spirit rings.
That's why Gui Mei had taken a special look earlier. Dai Weis's second spirit ring was indeed a thousand-year spirit ring. This discovery sent shockwaves through Gui Mei's mind. Could spirit rings be absorbed beyond one's level? Could the Star Luo Empire have mastered the method of absorbing spirit rings beyond one's level?
These doubts lingered in Gui Mei's mind like a shadow, unable to be shaken off. Not only him, but also Cixue and Shelong beside him had solemn expressions.
Looking at Yue Guan in the air, Dai Weis shrugged, bowed and said with a smile: "Elder Ju, long time no see! I wonder why the princes are ambushing us here? It can't be to escort us to Spirit City, right? Or does the Spirit Hall want to go to war with the Star Luo Empire?
Elder Ju, I still say the same thing. This time, the excuse of being drunk and making mistakes will not work. If you are caught, wait for your two horses to tear your bodies into pieces and parade them through the streets! Is it okay to do that?"
"Huh, brat, you were lucky last time. You happened to meet the old poison who saved you. This time he is not here, you will definitely die!"
"That's not necessarily true!"
In an instant, a loud shout came from the carriage in the middle of the convoy, and Dai Tianxing and Zhu Lingyun soared into the sky and flew in front of Yue Guan. They stared at Yue Guan with anger on their faces and shouted coldly:
"A chrysanthemum, a little devil, want to kill my grandson! Step over my body first!"
