#320 - Davis's Purpose
“Fourth Grandfather, I need to trouble you. Please lie in ambush on the route that Star Luo Crown Prince will definitely take to the Heaven Dou Empire. When the time comes, take down Davis, Ye Lingling, and the others in one fell swoop!”
After seeing Xue Beng off, Xue Qinghe couldn't help but have a splitting headache. He frowned and stared in the direction Xue Beng and Dugu Bo left, even though he could no longer see their departing figures.
He never expected that this useless younger brother he had ignored would cause him so much trouble!
When he was undercover in Heaven Dou City, Xue Qinghe successively made moves against the Second and Third Princes of the Heaven Dou Empire. Originally, he planned to completely obliterate Xue Beng as well, but considering the deaths of the Second and Third Princes, some people had already begun to suspect him.
If he were to kill Xue Beng as well, even Emperor Xue Ye would suspect him. If that were the case, it would be a greater loss than gain, so Xue Qinghe did not attack Xue Beng.
Xue Beng also behaved like a纨绔子弟, a useless good-for-nothing, which gradually made Xue Qinghe lower his guard against him.
He had planned to quietly execute Xue Beng after he ascended the throne and became emperor, but he never expected that Xue Beng would suddenly become enlightened and invite the Star Luo Empire's royal physician to assist him, putting him in a dilemma.
“Now that I've finally managed to confuse that old fogey Xue Ye and gradually seized military and political power, if Xue Ye wakes up, then all my arrangements will have been in vain.
At such a crucial moment, I can't let this piece of rat dung, Xue Beng, affect my plan. Fourth Grandfather, I'm counting on you!”
“No problem! Leave it to me, Young Master!”
With that said, the Majestic Lion Douluo transformed into a red figure, soared into the sky, turned into a streak of blood-colored light, and stirred up the罡wind of the Nine Heavens, rushing towards the Star Luo Empire.
Even though he was a Power Attack-type Super Douluo, his speed was as fast as lightning. In a short while, he had rushed hundreds of miles away!
After the Majestic Lion Douluo left, the Light Plume Douluo, who was hiding behind the screen, swayed his small feet, smiled faintly, and said, "Young Master, do you want me to go and obliterate that useless Xue Beng!"
As he spoke, a majestic longbow appeared in his hand, emitting the aura of ice and light. It was his martial soul—the Light Plume Longbow!
The Light Plume Douluo's lips curled up slightly, revealing a handsome and cute smile. His left eye, covered in ice and snow, narrowed slightly, as if he could see Xue Beng returning to the mansion.
“I can… just gently pull the bowstring…”
Before he could finish speaking, his words were interrupted by Xue Qinghe.
“Fifth Grandfather, not yet!” Xue Qinghe shook his head slightly. “With Dugu Bo's personal protection, even you would find it difficult to kill Xue Beng with 100% certainty, right?”
“That's true…” The Light Plume Douluo's face turned ugly and said, “I just tested his strength and found that this old thing is indeed very strong. His soul power has reached level ninety-five. Even Chrysanthemum Pass and Ghost Charm, those two little brats, may not be his match, and his deadly poison is too troublesome…”
“That's right, so we can't alert the enemy yet! Besides, even if Fifth Grandfather, you can kill Xue Beng with one arrow, if he dies inexplicably as soon as he leaves, the officials and civilians in Heaven Dou City will definitely suspect me. This will be a huge disadvantage for me to completely control the Heaven Dou Empire!”
Speaking of this, a hint of determination and ambition flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes.
“I want to take every inch of the Heaven Dou Empire into my hands! I want to make everyone in the Heaven Dou Empire submit to me! I want to use my strength to prove my ability to that woman!”
“Alas…”
Just as Xue Qinghe was full of ambition, the Light Plume Douluo inside the screen sighed deeply. As a direct descendant of Qian Daoliu, he naturally knew about the events of that year.
“The most urgent task is to quickly notify Prince Xue Xing and let him send his patrol army to protect His Highness's safety. Otherwise, if Xue Qinghe plays dirty, it will be troublesome. Don't forget the lessons of the two princes!”
Thinking of the bizarre deaths of his two older brothers, Xue Beng suddenly woke up. The joy on his face disappeared, and he bowed and said, “Your Excellency Dugu is right. I was a little carried away.”
As he spoke, Xue Beng quickly wrote a letter to Prince Xue Xing and sent a trusted guard to deliver it to Prince Xue Xing, asking him to immediately send someone to protect him.
After learning of Xue Beng's entire plan, Prince Xue Xing's eyes lit up, and he immediately sent his patrol army to surround Xue Beng's mansion three layers inside and three layers outside, like a hard iron barrel, impenetrable!
At the same time, he also sent ten Soul Emperors to protect Xue Beng's safety in the courtyard, as well as Dugu Bo's personal protection.
Even in order to prevent Xue Qinghe from using poisoning methods, Prince Xue Xing personally went to purchase food. For the next month, Xue Beng's food, drink, and bowel movements were all carried out in the courtyard, as if he was under house arrest, but this was also the best protection for him.
It just so happened that Xue Beng could also take this opportunity to work hard on his cultivation. Looking in the direction of the Star Luo Empire, Xue Beng couldn't help but mutter to himself.
“I'm counting on you, Your Highness!”
… …
Most ⊥ New ⊥ Small ⊥ Say ⊥ In ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥ Book ⊥ Bar ⊥ First ⊥ Hair!
A month passed quickly. After parting ways with Xue Beng and the others, Davis took Zhu Zhuyun and the four girls back to the Star Luo Empire as quickly as possible!
Originally, he only planned to bring Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing sisters, but considering that Tang Yuehua and Anna might not be safe staying in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, after all, Dugu Bo had to protect Xue Beng closely.
So he simply took the two of them home together. After half a month of traveling, the group successfully returned to Star Luo City. At the same time, Davis told his father, Dai Pojun, about his plan.
Dai Pojun and Dai Tianxing naturally fully supported Davis's plan and proposal!
Therefore, Davis also found Ye Lingling and Yang Wudi and asked them to cooperate with his plan to "weaken Heaven Dou and obtain the Vast Sea Barrier". The two naturally agreed happily.
In order to ensure the safety of the two, Davis also specially brought the Gengjin Douluo Lin Qiuyang and the Sixth Elder of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Wenze.
Ning Wenze was an eighty-level Support System Battle Soul Douluo who had just broken through the Soul Douluo realm a month ago. His martial soul was the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. His position in the Seven Treasure Blue Lightning School was second only to Ning Fengzhi. His support ability was also very strong, and he was proficient in the Distraction Control Technique and the Soul Fusion Technique.
With Ning Wenze, the combat power of Davis and others could definitely be increased several times. After being ready, the group set off in a mighty manner.
They did not take the small road, but instead set off openly from the official road. After all, their purpose was to lure Xue Qinghe to take action, take the opportunity to weaken Xue Qinghe's power, and then instigate Xue Beng to fight with him internally, so as to weaken Heaven Dou or even split the Heaven Dou Empire.
If he could really split the Heaven Dou Empire, Davis would not only be able to obtain the Vast Sea Barrier, but the Star Luo Empire would also be able to obtain many benefits.
