"Additionally, you are to lead a portion of Spirit Emperor-level and above powerhouses to seek opportunities to assassinate Lin Yu.
I want him to die outside; he absolutely cannot return alive!"
"Do you understand?!"
Bibi Dong's killing intent soared as she issued two commands to the black-clad individual.
"Yes, Supreme Pontiff, this subordinate takes his leave." The black-clad person responded coldly, his tone devoid of emotion.
This black-clad person was a death warrior cultivated by Bibi Dong for many years, a powerhouse of the Spirit Douluo level.
Bibi Dong, starting as a mere figurehead, had by now gained significant power and influence within the Spirit Hall.
Whether openly or covertly, she had naturally cultivated a large number of subordinates and loyalists absolutely devoted to her.
Openly, she placed her cultivated talents in various departments, organizations, and important positions within the Spirit Hall, inserting as many of her own people as possible.
This is a fundamental strategy for those in power, or emperors.
It involves clearing out mid-to-high-level personnel holding important positions and replacing them with individuals absolutely loyal to oneself.
Only then can one truly control power; simply sitting on the Supreme Pontiff's throne does not mean complete control over Spirit Hall's power, especially since the High PriestQian Daoliu is still there.
If you don't put your own people in place, and they don't listen to you, wouldn't the Supreme Pontiff still be a mere figurehead?
Bibi Dong had been on the Supreme Pontiff's throne for many years, and her own forces and loyalists had long begun to infiltrate numerous important positions, departments, and organizations within Spirit Hall.
This is also why in the original work, Qian Daoliu would say that the power and influence Bibi Dong controlled were already no less than his own.
Behind the scenes, Bibi Dong had naturally cultivated quite a few powerhouses in secret.
These powerhouses would specifically do things for her that Spirit Hall was unaware of.
For example, assassinating Lin Yu now!
Bibi Dong wasn't bold enough to let Spirit Hall's people make a move, so she naturally wouldn't let Ghost Douluo make a move, as this would immediately trace back to her.
By having her secretly cultivated death warriors assassinate Lin Yu, even if they failed, no one would know they were her people.
Because, as long as Bibi Dong spread the news that Lin Yu was a God Position successor, she believed that both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire would certainly send a large number of cultivated assassins to kill Lin Yu.
As professional assassins, they would naturally seek the best timing to launch an assassination.
Even if Lin Yu had a Titled Douluo powerhouse protecting him, it's impossible for them to maintain high concentration and protection 24 hours a day, right?
There will always be moments of carelessness!
"Heh, Lin Yu, I'd like to see if you have the life to come back alive." Bibi Dong sneered.
At this moment, Lin Yu and the others had already left Nuoding City early and were on their way to Luli City.
Lin Yu didn't know that Bibi Dong had already spread the news of him being a Divinity successor in order to eliminate him; he was currently discussing with Qian Renxue how to kill the next target.
Lin Yu said: "Wang Ba, Spirit: Black Demonic Bear, an attack systemSpirit Master.
Seven years ago, he was level 63, and his current spirit power level is unknown, but since seven years have passed, I imagine he's at least level 65 or above, right?"
This Wang Ba was the notorious flower thief Qian Renxue had designated as a primary target before their departure.
His criminal record included defiling over a hundred women.
Qian Renxue nodded: "Hmm, he should be level 65 after seven years.
And according to the information we currently have, this Wang Ba has no fixed abode and his whereabouts are unknown.
Our people only know he's in Luli City, but haven't yet found his tracks."
"Moreover, this person acts extremely cautiously.
Several of our Spirit Saint-level reconnaissance personnel have investigated for many days and still haven't found any clues about him.
It will probably not be a simple matter to find him in a short time."
Zhu Zhuqing thought: "Is it possible he has already left Luli City?"
"No, he should still be in Luli City." Lin Yu shook his head, analyzing: "Based on the information we currently have, this Wang Ba only started committing crimes frequently again in the last year, and this bastard has a clear pattern of crime."
"That's right, he commits crimes three times consecutively in one city, and only after three times does he move to the next city to continue committing crimes.
And the news we received is that he only committed his first crime in Luli City.
Therefore, Wang Ba should still be in Luli City." Qian Renxue said.
"Not only that, look, Wang Ba's crime times are all on the fifteenth of every month."
"It's true!
What kind of perverted trash is this Wang Ba, specifically choosing days to sexually assault women?" Dugu Yan said angrily upon seeing this.
"However, this is good news for us.
Now what we need to think about is how to find him." Lin Yu said in a deep voice.
Dugu Yan said: "After entering the city, just have the Spirit Hall Branch send out a large number of people to search all over Luli City, wouldn't that do it?"
"Absolutely not!
We are in the open, they are in the dark.
This would only alert him and force him to flee Luli City.
If he continues to hide and stops committing crimes, it will be as difficult as ascending to heaven for us to find him."
"Then what should we do~"
Lin Yu pondered: "Based on the recent victims, this Wang Ba specifically targets young girls under 20 years old who are exceptionally well-built and beautiful."
"After entering the city, we can only proactively pay attention to the exceptionally beautiful girls in Luli City and see if we can detect him in advance when Wang Ba commits a crime."
"This is indeed a method, but Luli City is after all a medium-sized city, and there are quite a few exceptionally beautiful girls!
The base is too large.
If the target he locks onto on the night of the crime happens to be far away from us, I'm afraid we won't make it in time!"
Qian Renxue suddenly became serious: "I have a plan."
"Oh?"
Lin Yu, Dugu Yan, and Zhu Zhuqing all looked at her.
Qian Renxue's lips curved slightly upward, and she smiled confidently: "I can put myself in the situation and lure this scoundrel.
With my looks, there aren't many girls in the city who can compare to me, right?
Once we enter the city, I'll show myself more often on the streets, and I don't believe he won't set his sights on me."
"It seems this is the simplest method." Lin Yu secretly nodded.
Forget Luli City; there aren't many girls more beautiful than Qian Renxue in the entire Douluo Continent.
If she were to appear, a pervert like Wang Ba would definitely take the bait.
"Then it's settled.
Let's enter the city."
"Mm-hmm."
Half an hour later, Lin Yu and the others finally stepped into Luli City.
Upon entering the city, Lin Yu saw many trademarks with seven-pagoda shaped patterns, indicating that these were all properties of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was located near Luli City, so Luli City could be said to be the territory of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, where they existed like overlords.
Lin Yu's carriage was driving normally on the street, but it wasn't long before a panicked cry came from the street ahead.
"They're here!"
"They're here!"
"The Little Demon Girl of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Rongrong, is here!!"
