The Star Dou Great Forest is located in the southeast of the Lima Plain of the Barak Kingdom, with a small portion bordering the kingdom.
The Barak Kingdom extends south to the Star Luo Empire.
The border between the two great empires, Heaven Dou and Star Luo, is where Spirit City is located, so Spirit City is not far from the Star Dou Great Forest.
A well-constructed road in the southeast of the Lima Plain leads directly to Spirit City.
A man dressed in white robes and a bright red tuxedo walked slowly forward, the gold and silver patterns on the tuxedo making his appearance even more alluring.
Walking beside him was a gaunt man with a pale face and faint black markings, exuding a chilling aura.
These two were none other than Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei.
They walked unhurriedly towards the Spirit Hall, but their expressions were not good.
"Old Ghost, if we go back empty-handed, what will His Holiness the Pope do?" Yue Guan asked hesitantly.
Two years ago, Pope Bibi Dong ordered them to find and capture Dongfang Jing.
However, they found it troublesome and used the mission as an excuse to enjoy themselves, traveling all over the Star Luo Empire.
Now, the mission has made no progress, and even reporting back to the Spirit Hall is a problem.
They only know that the young man they are looking for has the spirit of Shattered Mirror and silver hair; all other information is missing. They have also searched within the Star Luo Empire, but without any leads.
"That kid might be hiding in some unknown village in the Heaven Dou Empire, and we just had bad luck not running into him," Ghostly's voice was hoarse. "But no matter what, we are Title Douluo; personally capturing a mere brat would be beneath us. If we just go back like this, His Holiness the Pope won't dare do anything to us. At worst, we can go to the Hall of Offerings and talk to him."
Yue Guan nodded in agreement.
He coveted the wealth and glory offered by the Spirit Hall, which is why he worked diligently under Bibi Dong, but he wasn't willing to do every menial or menial task.
His goal was merely to become a two-ring Soul Master. Even if he achieved a title in the future, with the Spirit Hall's immense power, why would they need to go to such lengths?
Ghostly suddenly sneered: "Do you remember when Her Majesty the Pope was still the Holy Maiden, she was infatuated with a piece of trash who couldn't even break through level 30?"
"Hiss—now that you mention it, I remember. The former Pope was still alive then, and he was quite angry about this."
So, Bibi Dong's eagerness to capture that kid who could absorb Soul Rings beyond his level wasn't just to force him to reveal how he did it, but also to find out if he had a method to break through the level 30 bottleneck.
After all, absorbing Soul Rings beyond one's level already defies common sense. If that kid had other extraordinary methods, it wasn't impossible!
"Damn it! She sent us out here for that piece of trash? What's wrong with her brain?" Yue Guan couldn't help but curse.
"Shh, keep your voice down. If she hears us, we're both in trouble."
"This place is near the Star Dou Great Forest, and she doesn't need a soul ring, nor does Nana need one for the time being. How could she be here?"
Just then, a buzzing sound came from afar.
The two turned their heads at the same time and saw a huge, dark purple creature speeding towards them, causing them to freeze in surprise.
"Old Ghost, is that a soul beast? I've never seen one before!" Yue Guan pointed with his orchid finger, somewhat astonished.
Ghost shook his head: "Doesn't seem like it. There seem to be people inside. There are several people following behind him."
The SUV sped along the road.
Dongfang Jing had already passed the target town and was getting closer and closer to the Star Dou Great Forest. His soul power was being consumed rapidly, but he dared not stop.
The surrounding plains were open and there was no cover.
Through the rearview mirror, he could clearly see six figures chasing closely behind him.
There were five disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, all of whom were stronger than him.
Another figure, clad in a tattered cloak, moved with heavy yet extraordinary speed, closing in even without exerting full force.
The vehicle and the figure raced past the two Douluo, Chrysanthemum and Ghost, like the wind.
"Is that a vehicle? Who's inside? Why are they being chased by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?" Yue Guan blinked, more curious about the uniquely designed dark purple vehicle.
Ghost, however, frowned, keenly noticing more details: "The person in that car is very young, with silver hair... and being chased by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, could it be?!"
The two exchanged a glance, instantly understanding! Had they really run into that kid?
Yue Guan was about to summon his martial soul to give chase when Ghost stopped him: "Wait. Besides the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, that cloaked man in black is also chasing him. His aura feels very familiar."
As an agility-type Title Douluo, Ghost possessed a special martial soul, making him extremely sensitive to auras.
"Familiar? Is it good or bad? Friend or foe?" Yue Guan pressed.
"Bad, and an enemy. Follow him quietly first, and figure out the situation before making a decision."
On the other side,the five Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School disciples responsible for tracking also noticed the presence of the man in black.
What alarmed them even more was that they couldn't fathom the depth of his strength at all.
"Captain, what do we do? He's not one of ours! Which faction does he belong to?" A disciple hurried along, whispering to the Pure Agility Soul Emperor in charge.
The Soul Emperor was also unsure.
They were ordered to track Dongfang Jing, heir original intention being simply to ensure he didn't escape the sect's sight, since the sect leader had clearly stated his intention to win over the brother and sister.
The strange vehicle created by the silver-haired boy was indeed incredibly fast; although his soul power was clearly lower than everyone else's, he forced them to use their soul skills to keep up.
And this suddenly appearing man in black had obviously been following all along, only forced to reveal his presence because there was nowhere to hide on the plains and the vehicle's speed was too fast.
"You four continue to follow, avoid conflict. I'll go back and report to the sect master!"
"Yes!"
Before the Soul Emperor finished speaking, his sixth soul ring lit up, and he was already several feet away.
The speed of a pure agility type was indeed terrifying; he disappeared from his original spot in the blink of an eye.
However, on his way back at full speed, he brushed past the two Douluo, Chrysanthemum and Ghost.
Ghost's eyes flashed, and he sneered, "Trying to escape?" He was about to capture them.
"Old Ghost, wait!" Yue Guan immediately stopped him.
"I remember that man; he's a reconnaissance Soul Master trusted by Ning Fengzhi. We can't act rashly. Wherever Ning Fengzhi is, he's there!"
"Since he's here, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, or Gu Rong are probably nearby. Instead of wasting time questioning him and getting into a conflict with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, we should hurry and catch up, capture that kid first, and return directly to Spirit City to report to His Holiness the Pope." Ghostly nodded, "You're right, let's go!"
The pure agility-type Soul Emperor, running at full speed, looked back and saw that the other party wasn't chasing him, and breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"That's Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo? How come they're here? Could it be that the man in black isn't from the Spirit Hall?"
He didn't have time to think further; his Soul Rings lit up again, and he accelerated towards Soto City.
