"There's no need for that. The Wolf Bandits are a bloodthirsty and savage lot. They must be completely eradicated.

If our soldiers retreat now, the bandits will surely regroup and pose a threat to us again. Today, I will uproot this malignant tumor—once and for all, permanently!"

Upon hearing this, Lie Tianhu nodded in agreement. "Your Highness is wise. It was my own shortsightedness."

Currently, every soldier was equipped with grenades and repeating flintlock rifles, more than capable of exterminating the Wolf Bandits with lightning speed. Even if outnumbered ten to one, the worst-case scenario would be detonating the grenades and perishing together with the enemy.

"Your Highness, General Lie, we've discovered many desiccated corpses in the Wolf Bandit camp, along with more than two hundred women."

"Oh?" Dai Weisi frowned. "Take me there."

"Yes, sir!"

Under the soldier's guidance, Dai Weisi entered the Wolf Bandit camp and indeed saw numerous dried-out corpses hanging from the large trees within the camp. They had been turned into jerky, presumably stored as rations for the bandits.

Dai Weisi sighed deeply, a look of sorrow on his face. "Sigh… pitiful souls. Not only were they killed by the bandits, but even in death they were treated as dried meat…

Uncle Tianhu, have them buried. Let them rest in peace."

"Yes, sir!" Lie Tianhu promptly gave orders for the corpses to be taken down and buried on the spot.

Dai Weisi then made his way to the dungeon. As expected, more than two hundred women were imprisoned inside. All of them were naked, their bodies covered in wounds, and their eyes void of spirit—they were clearly numb to pain and emotion.

The women varied in age—some were in their sixties, while others were just teenagers. A few among them were even soul masters.

One soldier by Dai Weisi's side asked, "Your Highness, how should we handle these women?"

"Release them and bring them back to the military camp. After recording their identities, allow them to leave. Also, make sure that each of them receives fifty gold soul coins upon departure.

They are citizens of our Star Luo Empire, yet they have suffered such cruelty. This compensation may not erase their pain, but it's the least we can do."

Dai Weisi could not bear to see such tragedy. After giving the orders to rescue the women, he returned to camp. It was time to begin absorbing the Hurricane Right Leg Bone of the Bloodthirsty Berserker.

Having previously absorbed a soul bone, Dai Weisi was now proficient in the process. He silently infused soul power into the bone, merging it with the bones of his right leg.

Three hours later, the fusion was complete. The Hurricane Right Leg Bone of the Bloodthirsty Berserker had fully integrated into his leg, making his right leg stronger and more agile. His strides now carried the power of a tiger, and his running speed had significantly increased. Most importantly, he could now use the soul bone's special ability!

What mattered even more was that after absorbing the soul bone, Dai Weisi's soul power surged rapidly, pushing him right to the threshold of Rank 60!

"This is amazing! I've finally broken through!"

Dai Weisi's eyes lit up with excitement. At not even twenty-one years old, he was already a quasi-Soul Emperor. Such talent—was there anyone in the history of Douluo Continent who could compare?

Yet despite this breakthrough, he did not become complacent. He immediately began meditating to stabilize his new realm, a process that took more than a week.

Afterwards, Dai Weisi entered the command tent to assess the current situation. If the Wolf Bandits had been fully eliminated, they could begin their triumphant return—and he could pursue his sixth soul ring.

However, the moment he stepped into the tent, he noticed that Lie Tianhu and the other generals all wore heavy expressions, brows furrowed and spirits low.

When Dai Weisi entered, everyone quickly saluted.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

"At ease. Now, what's going on? Why does everyone look so grim? Did something happen to our troops?"

"Not exactly," Lie Tianhu replied, shaking his head. He then pointed to a map of the Douluo Continent and explained to Dai Weisi, "After a week of hard-fought battles, we've succeeded in driving all the Wolf Bandits out of the Heavenly Calamity Mountain Range and out of the Star Luo Empire."

"Hmm. That's good news, isn't it? Then why the long faces…?"

Beyond the mountain range lay the Kingdom of Bakla, and to the northwest of the border mountains were Nuoding City and Saint Soul Village of the Fasno Province.

Although called the Border Mountain Range, its main ridges were within the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire, meaning the mountain range technically belonged to the Heaven Dou Empire.

"According to intelligence from our scouts, the Wolf Bandits have already attacked over a dozen villages, including Saint Soul Village. Many villagers have been abducted and turned into dried rations. There's no doubt about it—this group of bandits is preparing for a prolonged war against us."

At that moment, another general added, "Of course, we also wanted to pursue them and wipe them out entirely. But since the border mountain range is Heaven Dou Empire's territory, advancing further might be seen as an act of invasion by their higher-ups. That's why we haven't moved rashly."

"Moreover, Your Highness, our provisions will only last for one more week. If we run out of food, we'll be forced to withdraw. But the moment we retreat, given how vengeful the Wolf Bandits are, they're bound to return with a vengeance. That's what's troubling us."

"Short on supplies, huh…" Dai Weisi frowned slightly. He suddenly regretted not bringing that little fox Anna along. If she were here, there would've been no need to worry about supplies at all.

After a moment of thought, Dai Weisi made a firm decision and said, "Order our soldiers to remove their uniforms and disguise themselves as civilians. Send them into the border mountains in groups of ten. We must completely eliminate the Wolf Bandits.

As for what the higher-ups in the Heaven Dou Empire think, let them think whatever they want. Ignore them. Right now, the Star Luo Empire stands tall with a powerful army and three Titled Douluo holding the line.

If the Heaven Dou Empire wants to start a war over something this minor, then I can only say that Emperor Xue Ye has lost his mind."

Dai Weisi's motive for sending troops to eliminate the Wolf Bandits wasn't just to prevent their return—it was also because he intended to make a trip to Saint Soul Village himself.

The Blue Silver Emperor's original body and the Blue Silver Emperor's soul bone were most likely hidden within the waterfall near Saint Soul Village.

Even now, Dai Weisi couldn't wrap his head around one thing.

Tang Hao, a Titled Douluo, didn't even possess a single soul tool. And yet, he chose to hide the incredibly valuable Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone in a waterfall?

Not having a soul tool was one thing. Hiding the soul bone in a waterfall was questionable but still understandable. But what was truly baffling was that he also hid Ah Yin—the transformed body of the Blue Silver Emperor—inside that same waterfall. Now that was truly puzzling.

Anyone with common sense would know that plants require sunlight to grow. Yet he chose to hide the Blue Silver Emperor in a place where light barely reached. If it weren't for the Blue Silver Emperor's extraordinary vitality, it might've withered and died long ago.

No wonder there were so many conspiracy theories about Tang Hao—because this guy genuinely didn't do anything the normal way!

"The Blue Silver Emperor… Forget the right leg bone for now. If Nana can absorb the essence of the Blue Silver Emperor, her Black Jade Divine Grass martial soul might undergo a second evolution. It's even possible she could awaken the Blue Silver Domain…"
