The black-haired man who had landed in the building had a somber expression.
A glimpse of him revealed blood at the corner of his mouth and a golden petal mark on his chest.
Upon seeing Chrysanthemum Douluo pursuing him closely, his figure transformed into a thick mist, losing all human form. The black mist of soul power coalesced into a solid shield, intending to block his pursuer.
However, to others, this seemed like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Although the man who attacked was also a Soul Douluo and very strong, compared to a Titled Douluo, being able to kill someone under their watch was already quite impressive, a surprise attack.
Chrysanthemum Douluo's golden figure had already surged in front of the black-misted man.
Yet, a figure, moving as swiftly as a meteor, crashed down, blocking his path.
"Yue Guan, you're the one seeking death, aren't you?"
Dugu Bo, clad in green armor, descended overbearing from the sky, creating a crater in the ground.
With his martial soul unleashed and nine soul rings flashing, his eyes gleamed with malice.
His dragon horns were sharp, and his claws were clamped tightly around Yue Guan's wrist.
"Are you trying to start a war with the Spirit Hall?"
"Dugu Bo!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo's face darkened as he stared at Dugu Bo's hundred-thousand-year soul ring and felt the immense force on his wrist, uttering a threat.
"Let him go!"
Ghost Douluo, who had been observing the battle from a distance, also unleashed his soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black. His figure moved rapidly, leaving afterimages in the air, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Dugu Bo, his sharp blade slashing towards him.
A cold glint flashed, causing Dugu Bo to flick his hand, throwing Yue Guan towards Ghost Douluo, forcing Chrysanthemum Douluo to intercept Ghost Douluo's blade.
"Do you really think this old man is afraid of the Spirit Hall?!"
The opponent's attack was swift; he could have dodged it, but the people behind him might not have been so lucky.
So, he could only use Chrysanthemum Douluo as a shield.
This made Ghost Douluo quickly retract his weapon and catch Chrysanthemum Douluo.
The two flipped over and hovered in mid-air.
"Two Titled Douluo bullying a junior, how shameless."
"If you really want to fight, try me, old man."
"Let me witness the power of the Spirit Hall's Titled Douluo!"
Even facing two opponents, Dugu Bo exuded confidence and an overwhelming aura, pushing the figure behind him towards Lan Zhen. He then floated up, positioning himself in front of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.
The aura of a Titled Douluo in confrontation caused many figures, already in a state of readiness, to spring into action.
"Dugu Bo, you…"
Demon Bear Douluo, standing at the entrance of the Spirit Hall, watched the situation unfold, his eyes wide. He took a step forward, about to say something.
He then sensed figures appearing elsewhere; Lan Xiu, Lan Zheng, and Lan Lu also arrived at the scene one after another.
"You don't need to worry about things over there. We can chat. Were you just bothering my brother?!"
Lan Xiu even stood directly in front of Demon Bear Douluo, and the words he spoke made the latter's expression stiffen, preventing him from continuing his sentence.
The others also kept their eyes on the people from the Spirit Hall.
As a result, more and more people gathered, as if they were going to besiege the Spirit Hall branch here.
The atmosphere was tense, and people from other forces and soul beasts watched with anticipation, eager for a fight to break out.
The Demon-Eyed Tree, hidden in the shadows, hoped for a war between the two major forces, which would simplify its actions.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and other sects also wanted to weaken both factions, and a mutually destructive outcome would be ideal.
In this situation, any casualties would clearly prevent either side from backing down.
They even wanted to take action and stir up some trouble.
"Fight, fight…"
Yu Xiaogang, who had rushed to the scene, found a place to hide from danger, full of anticipation.
If both sides started fighting, his chances of convincing others would be even greater.
This way, his plan could succeed, allowing him to see an opportunity to destroy Blue Silver City and avenge Tang San.
"Heichuan, how are you?"
Lan Zhen, holding the man who had been flung over by Dugu Bo, asked about his condition. Seeing that his life force was still strong, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"I have fulfilled my mission. All those who insulted Blue Silver City are dead."
Heichuan, whose eyes seemed to hold only his mission, responded.
Heichuan was an orphan whose martial soul had undergone a slight mutation.
After demonstrating his strength in Blue Silver City, he received training. His martial soul was a misty soul beast called a Cloud Mist Beast, not strong in attack but extremely powerful in escape and assassination.
During this operation, he discovered that people from the Spirit Hall were obstructing him, so he decisively dealt with those they were pursuing. Since they didn't want to be captured, they wouldn't need to go to a prison; they could go straight to hell.
He just hadn't expected that after taking action, he would be discovered and attacked by Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, who were hiding in the shadows observing the situation at the entrance.
He hadn't anticipated two Titled Douluo hiding in the dark.
It was only because of his special abilities that he managed to hold on.
"Don't be so impulsive in the future."
Lan Zhen handed the man over to a healing-type soul master.
He looked at the figures of the Spirit Hall members around him, thinking that if a fight broke out, he would clear out everyone from the Spirit Hall here.
Anyway, the Titled Douluo would be handled by others.
Those people also seemed to realize that the situation was very wrong. Many of them turned pale, worried about being completely wiped out.
Meanwhile, at the standoff between Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and Dugu Bo.
"Spirit Hall is obstructing our business. Is this a declaration of war?"
Lan Zheng and Lan Lu stared at the two, completely unfazed by the name of Spirit Hall.
Just a few fragmented words nearby were enough for them to piece together a general idea.
Regardless, the Spirit Hall was definitely in the wrong.
"That's what we should be saying to you! You just ran into the Spirit Hall and killed people without a sound. What are you trying to do?"
"Do you still have any respect for the Spirit Hall?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were almost laughing from anger.
He had just said similar words to Dugu Bo, and now he was being accused in return.
It was truly annoying.
Given the Spirit Hall's status on this continent, how could they tolerate such a thing?
At the same time, they also felt that they might have truly messed things up this time.
Originally, they had intended to use the people from Blue Silver City to pursue those individuals, forcing Lan Tian to come out.
It would be best if the matter of the hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast could also be definitively resolved.
However, they hadn't expected that instead of forcing anyone out, someone would run into their Spirit Hall, kill people, and slap them in the face.
Moreover, they hadn't even managed to kill a Soul Douluo, leading to this situation.
Fighting seemed difficult.
But not fighting, having failed to kill a Soul Douluo who had killed people inside the Spirit Hall, made the Spirit Hall feel somewhat disgraced.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were caught in a dilemma.
The situation here was basically all within Xiao Lan's observation.
At this moment, she was also very conflicted and troubled, wondering whether to make a move or wake up the old man?
This matter could be considered both big and small. Currently, if they wanted to take down the Spirit Hall members with a small cost, it would be best for her or the old man to act. Otherwise, there might be many casualties, or the other party might escape.
