NOVEL WEB Chapter 254: The Concerns of the Amorous Douluo
For the Amorous Douluo, the situation had somewhat exceeded his expectations.
During the spatial transfer, the Divine Domain Douluo suddenly intervened, leading him into a forest.
However, the Amorous Douluo seemed prepared as he looked at Enci and coldly said:
"Not going to keep up the act?"
"..."
The Divine Domain Douluo remained silent.
Seeing this, the Amorous Douluo frowned, "Actually, before today, I never understood what your Star Luo Empire was really aiming for. If you just wanted to keep our envoy members, you could have gathered an army to surround and eliminate us before we could react. Why go through all this trouble?"
While an army might not be decisive against strong individuals, not all members of the envoy sent by the Federation were strong. If they were attacked upon entering Star Luo City, he and Huo Yuhao might escape, but others might not.
Moreover, with those without cultivation or weaker spirit masters among them, they might be restricted or hindered, making Star Luo's plan easier to execute.
However, judging from Star Luo's series of actions, their goal was clearly not to annihilate everyone...
Hearing this, the Divine Domain Douluo finally spoke:
"The Amorous Douluo said he didn't understand our plan before today, but now he does?"
The Amorous Douluo snorted, "You created the Dawn Society as an enemy, collaborated with the Holy Spirit Cult to stage this siege, all to expose the Tang Sect, making the Federation condemn them, right?"
Previously, during the siege of the Dawn Society's branch base, the Amorous Douluo saw no signs of their envoy being targeted.
But the siege of the Dawn Society's headquarters was different.
Upon closer thought, it was clear that the Dawn Society's headquarters being in the Tang Sect's branch exposed the relationship between the Tang Sect and Star Luo, causing significant trouble.
And if there was evidence against the Tang Sect placed there, which was revealed during their attack, the Tang Sect's collusion with Star Luo and even evil spirit masters would be confirmed. The forces in the Federal Parliament, always eyeing Shrek Academy, would surely seize the opportunity.
"Among the fleeing super Douluos of the Dawn Society, someone mentioned that the Tang Sect branch had prepared a surprise for me, referring to the evidence against the Tang Sect, right?"
"The Douluo sees clearly." The Divine Domain Douluo nodded, sighing, "But what can you do even if you know this? Star Luo colluding with the Holy Spirit Cult? Without evidence, no one would believe it. After all, we Star Luo have always treated you with courtesy and never attacked you. You will return safely to the Douluo Federation."
The Amorous Douluo's eyes turned cold, but he couldn't refute this point.
Because Star Luo had indeed acted this way. No matter how many underhanded actions they took, on the surface, they were always fighting against evil spirit masters, opposing the Holy Spirit Cult, and treating the Federal envoy with courtesy, maintaining a good posture.
The Amorous Douluo understood why Star Luo did this. They didn't want to make themselves a target at this time, drawing the Federation's attention to themselves.
Although the Douluo Federation could find excuses to act against Star Luo regarding human elixirs, as long as Star Luo didn't attack the Federal envoy, once their plan succeeded, the Federation would surely focus on Shrek Academy first.
And thus, what would happen within the Douluo Federation was something the Amorous Douluo could already predict.
This was a conspiracy laid bare!
The Amorous Douluo's eyes flashed coldly, and the Passionate Sword in his hand trembled slightly, emitting a clear sword hum: "What a brilliant plan to kill two birds with one stone! Not only diverting the Douluo Federation's attention, giving your Star Luo a breather, but also dragging the Tang Sect and Shrek into the mud. However... that level-nine fixed soul cannon shell was beyond your expectations, wasn't it?"
"Indeed, because of it, our plan was disrupted. But the Amorous Douluo doesn't think we only had one plan, does he?"
The Divine Domain Douluo nodded in acknowledgment, but had other thoughts.
Yes, the plan was disrupted, but not regarding the Tang Sect and Shrek. It was about Huo Yuhao.
The Tang Sect's plan had other execution methods. With the Federal Acting Secretary Pan Wen, related plans would proceed smoothly.
The evidence against the Tang Sect in the Tang Sect branch was just the icing on the cake and a diversion. After all, Star Luo had put in great effort to design this siege plan. If they didn't show their purpose to the Douluo Federation, it would raise suspicions.
But now it's different.
With the Tang Sect and Shrek as huge shields, no one would think the ultimate goal of this siege plan was actually just Huo Yuhao.
After all, from an outsider's perspective, their plan to target Shrek was based on ensuring the safety of the Federal envoy members, not making themselves the target. But who would have thought they had planned to act against Huo Yuhao from the beginning?
Thinking this, the Divine Domain Douluo seemed to let go of something and smiled, "Amorous Douluo, since it's all clear now, why don't we wait here for the result? You should understand, they won't come to harm. At most, they'll find evidence against the Tang Sect during the pursuit. We Star Luo will ensure your safety!"
Facing the Divine Domain Douluo's almost mocking words, the Amorous Douluo's gaze turned even colder, "I don't think that's a good suggestion."
As he spoke, a layer of armor appeared around the Amorous Douluo like flowing light, made of translucent crystal clusters tempered by thousand-year-old profound ice, with fine starlight flowing in the void. Inside the armor, a golden mist seemed alive, flowing like a veil within the crystal, casting mottled shadows around.
The pair of spirit crystal wings nearly ten zhang wide behind him were the most dazzling, refracting countless rainbows under the light.
With the four-word battle armor equipped, the Passionate Sword in his hand suddenly burst into radiant light, a fierce energy storm erupting around Zang Xin. Under the full power of this four-word battle armor-equipped Limit Douluo, the entire world seemed to clear. The dazzling light swept across the land, obliterating all dust and mist, turning the area within several miles into a clear realm.
The Divine Domain Douluo's eyes narrowed, and he sighed helplessly, equipping his four-word battle armor, preparing for battle.
At that moment, a gentle laughter echoed through the air.
"Since the Amorous Douluo wants a fight, how about a match with me? I've long heard of your reputation as the continent's number one controller."
Before the voice faded, a dark middle-aged man appeared like a ghost, the surrounding space distorting instantly, a cold aura spreading.
The Amorous Douluo looked at the suddenly appearing middle-aged man, his pupils contracting, his expression turning extremely grave.
To suppress Star Luo, the Holy Spirit Cult indeed had a quasi-god stationed here.
Seeing this, the Divine Domain Douluo also felt a hint of surprise.
Why is the Ghost Emperor here?
The Ghost Emperor looked at them with a smile but gave them no time to think, nine soul rings suddenly appearing around him.
Black, Black, Black, Black, Red, Red, Red, Red... Orange!
"Amorous Douluo, no need to worry. As Enci said, this battle is just a spar, not a fight to the death. You will return safely to the Douluo Federation..."
Hearing this, the Amorous Douluo's expression darkened.
Facing a quasi-god and a semi-god who were cooperating, would he return safely?
Even if it wasn't a death sentence, he had no room to argue!
