Chapter 203 Three Mice in the Dark_1

After hearing the words of Blood Fiend Douluo, Herculean Douluo couldn't help but shrink his neck.

"Are you calm now?" Blood Fiend Douluo asked indifferently.

"I'm calm, very calm."

Herculean Douluo nodded frantically like a pecking chick, then he said somewhat awkwardly, "The way I spoke earlier was just too impulsive, caring only about the thrill of charging in to kill the target, thinking it would be over once and for all, but I forgot how to get out.

Um, if it's as Blood Fiend Douluo said, there's a very high chance we won't make it out.

Everyone, please don't mind. It's just my impulsive nature, and I still need everyone's guidance."

"It's good that you're calm, but remember, no repeat of this.

This isn't Xingluo Empire, it's Ming City, the capital of Sun-Moon Empire. We are deep in enemy territory, and any slight misstep could lead to a catastrophic demise," Blood Fiend Douluo said coldly. "I don't know what you were thinking, but I'd like to return the way I came. I don't have any intention of dying for the country at the moment, so if anyone thinks to drag me down, I will deal with them without mercy."

His words caused Xuanyu Douluo, who was beside him, to frown deeply.

What kind of talk is that?

Too mercenary!

However, once he recalled Blood Fiend Douluo's identity, he found it to be normal.

After all, Blood Fiend Douluo wasn't one of their own from Xingluo Empire.

The reason he could serve as a guest elder of Xingluo Empire was that Xu Jiawei had spent a great deal to win him over.

Their relationship was a very pure transaction.

There were no personal feelings involved at all.

If you really wanted him to be dedicated, that wasn't realistic.

If one day Xingluo Empire fell, he might be the first to run.

After all, business is business, no need to risk one's life, right?

Upon hearing Blood Fiend Douluo's words, Herculean Douluo also looked a bit ugly.

He had repeatedly given in, and to still speak like that was a bit too hurtful.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something in rebuttal?

But he was startled by Xuanyu Douluo beside him.

"Look, this young man walking out from Imprerial Sun Moon Soul Academy, doesn't he look familiar to you?"

Hearing this.

Blood Fiend Douluo and Herculean Douluo both directed their gaze over there.

Where their eyes landed was none other than the grand entrance of Imperial Sun Moon Soul Academy.

However, the young man walking out the door at that moment captured all their attention.

"Shua shua shua."

Herculean Douluo quickly pulled out a piece of paper from a Spatial Soul Guidance Device, which, once unfolded, showed a portrait of a person.

The youth in the picture bore an eight-point resemblance to the person emerging from the door.

"It's him, it's him, it's definitely him. Huo Yuhao!"

Herculean Douluo was so excited that his whole body trembled.

"Hahaha, finding something without even looking, what a stroke of luck. We were worried about how to get in to find him, and yet the lad comes out on his own."

"Eh, look at him looking around in all directions, completely unguarded. He's wholeheartedly out for a stroll."

"Hehe, then don't blame me. Today I'm going to teach him a lesson."

As he said this, he crumpled up the piece of paper, rolled up his sleeves, and readied his fists, about to move forward.

"Wait."

Suddenly, the hand of Blood Fiend Douluo landed on his shoulder, stopping his advance.

"What's wrong?" Herculean Douluo turned to look at Blood Fiend Douluo, his brows furrowing together.

His expression was very unpleasant.

"He's already come out, and you still want to stop me?"

```

He was never a kind person to begin with.

Besides, which Titled Douluo would lack self-respect?

The Blood Fiend Douluo had been pointing fingers and directing him multiple times, and he had long been in a bad mood.

"Wait a bit longer, we're still near the academy. If something happens, Titled Douluo-level experts can quickly react. By then, we would still be in danger," the Blood Fiend Douluo said gravely.

In fact, he was somewhat annoyed in his heart.

The Herculean Douluo was indeed too impulsive.

He felt like he would be doomed by him sooner or later.

On the side, the Xuanyu Douluo also slowly nodded, saying in a deep voice, "Blood Fiend is right, since Huo Yuhao has already come out, he probably won't go back for a while. We might as well follow him for some distance, set up some measures to block external perceptions, and then make our move against him."

"Then, it shouldn't be a problem for us to escape unscathed."

Who wouldn't want to live a good life instead of dying?

Only a thoughtless person like Herculean Douluo would have such impulsive thoughts.

"Well, since you also say so, let's do as you suggested," the Herculean Douluo compromised.

"That kid is getting away, let's follow him," he said.

At that moment, the Blood Fiend Douluo coldly spoke and then walked forward.

The streets were bustling with people.

Qin Xiao moved through the crowd, a cold smile unwittingly appearing on the corner of his mouth.

"Three rats lurking in the shadows, took the bait, didn't you?"

...

On the other hand.

In a forest several dozen miles from Shrek Academy.

Zhong Liwu was lying on a rocking chair, with Feng Ling's slender jade hands gently pressing on Zhong Liwu's forehead.

He enjoyed this feeling very much.

"Sect Hierarch, has there been any news recently, Vice Sect Hierarch?"

Just then, a discordant voice sounded, interrupting the comfort between the two.

Zhong Liwu sat up straight and looked toward where the voice originated.

There, the Crow Douluo in a black robe was approaching rapidly.

"There hasn't been any news yet, please wait a moment longer, guest elder," Feng Ling hesitated for a moment before replying in a low voice.

"Ah, it's been so long, there should have been some news. Hopefully, nothing has gone wrong," the Crow Douluo said with disappointment, sighing helplessly, "Opportunity knocks but once, a delay could mean a change. I always feel a bit uneasy, always afraid that Shrek Academy has some other preparations. If we're too late, we might never have the chance to wipe them out..."

It has to be said.

The Crow Douluo was a decent man.

Wholeheartedly committed to his cause.

As if it was his personal mission to destroy Shrek Academy.

"Normally, that should be the case. But with no reply, I don't know what's happened..." Zhong Liwu also couldn't help but frown at his words.

However.

Just at that moment, as if sensing something simultaneously, the three turned their gazes in a certain direction.

"It seems a powerful presence is approaching at an astonishing speed," said the Crow Douluo in a heavy voice, "I don't know if the newcomer is friend or foe! If it's reinforcements called by Shrek Academy, then we could be in trouble."

He also felt an alertness in his heart.

However.

The tense expression on Zhong Liwu's face suddenly relaxed, and he burst into a slight smile, "Guest Elder Crow, don't be nervous, the person you've been longing for has finally arrived."

The person I've been longing for?

The Crow Douluo was first taken aback, then a look of surprise appeared in his eyes, "Ah, are you talking about the Great Priest?"
