"Oh?" Dai Weisi raised an intrigued brow. "Lady Yuehua, your domain talent has evolved as well?"

"Indeed," Tang Yuehua replied. "My Noble Ring not only purifies impurities but now also enhances my attack power. For every level I raise my soul power, my attack increases by one percent within my domain. The higher my soul power, the stronger my attacks become. I've named it the 'Gengjin Domain.'"

At her words, Dai Weisi nodded slightly. Tang Yuehua was now a level-10 quasi-soul master, and her Gengjin Domain would grant her a tremendous advantage in battle—an ability that certainly couldn't be wasted.

"Since you wish to become an assault-type battle soul master, I will help you hunt a soul beast known for its offensive prowess."

"Hee hee, thank you, Your Highness," Tang Yuehua replied sweetly, her heart already filled with faint anticipation.

At her command, the carriage changed direction, speeding toward Sunset Forest. It was a place teeming with soul beasts, where they would certainly find a suitable one for her.

Not far away, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, who had been trailing them in secret, exchanged excited looks. Chrysanthemum Douluo pointed at the departing carriage and grinned.

"Old Ghost, this is perfect! They're going to Sunset Forest! Let's hurry after them. There were too many people on the main road earlier, giving us no chance to strike. Now they've gone to Sunset Forest—they've walked right into our trap! The area is deserted, and there are many ten-thousand-year soul beasts. The forest is without a doubt the most suitable place to make our move!"

"Indeed," Ghost Douluo rasped. Then, frowning, he asked, "I just don't understand why Prince Dai Weisi and Tang Yuehua would suddenly change direction and head for Sunset Forest."

"Perhaps one of them hit a bottleneck and needs to hunt a soul beast for a soul ring. In any case, that's not important. What's important is that we hurry and follow them to eliminate this major threat, Dai Weisi!"

In his heart, Chrysanthemum Douluo sneered coldly: Once I've killed that little brat Dai Weisi, I must study his corpse thoroughly. A soul master who has consumed the Transcendent Chrysanthemum is simply of immense research value!

Ghost Douluo, unaware of Chrysanthemum Douluo's thoughts, simply said, "Let's go."

With that, Ghost Douluo leaped into the air, using his soul power to keep pace with the carriage. Chrysanthemum Douluo followed close behind.

Trailing them were twenty soul masters from the Spirit Temple in Heaven Dou City, a group that included fifteen Soul Emperors, four Soul Saints, and one level-81 Soul Douluo.

The Spirit Temple, after all, was not Spirit City; the experts within it were pitifully few. Of course, Emperor Xueye would never allow the Spirit Temple to be filled with masters—otherwise, he wouldn't be able to sleep. How could one allow others to snore beside one's own bed?

An hour later, the carriage finally entered the outskirts of Sunset Forest. Through the windows, they could already see several ten-year soul beasts.

Seeing this, Tang Yuehua grew even more excited in anticipation of her first soul skill. Dai Weisi took the opportunity to activate his Ice and Fire Eyes, scanning the surroundings for a suitable soul beast for her. Her first soul ring had to be at least four hundred years old.

However, at that moment, disaster struck! Dai Weisi's pupils suddenly dilated. He shot up and pulled Tang Yuehua into his arms.

"Ah!" Tang Yuehua cried out, startled. "Ow! What are you doing?!"

"Lady Yuehua, get down!"

Boom—

A golden throwing knife shot forward like a cannonball, blasting the carriage canopy to pieces and sending countless wood splinters flying.

If Dai Weisi hadn't pulled Tang Yuehua into his embrace in time, her head would have been severed by the blade.

"What…"

Watching the throwing knife slice past where her head had just been, Tang Yuehua was overcome with fear. Her hands gripped Dai Weisi's shoulders tightly, her face deathly pale, and her sensual body trembled like a leaf.

"This throwing knife…"

Looking at the blade lodged in the carriage frame, Dai Weisi's expression suddenly changed. He muttered, "Chrysanthemum Pass? It seems they've come for me."

"Your Highness, are you all right?!"

At that moment, Li Hu and Lin Qiuyang, having heard the commotion, galloped up to Dai Weisi's carriage, anxiously asking about his condition.

"Don't worry, I'm fine! Uncle Li, Dean Lin! It's people from Spirit Hall! Let's go! Head deeper into Sunset Forest!"

Dai Weisi commanded urgently. Dugu Bo had set up a poison formation there. If Dugu Bo was present, they would be saved. Even if he wasn't, the poison formation itself would make Chrysanthemum Douluo and his group wary of acting recklessly, buying him some time.

"Yes! Full speed ahead!" Lin Qiuyang shouted. He and Li Hu rode on their swift horses, guarding Dai Weisi's carriage. In an instant, the carriage sped through the forest, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Although they were fleeing at full speed, Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and their subordinates caught up. Through the shredded canopy, Dai Weisi's and Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes met.

"Heh heh heh, Your Highness, we meet again, don't we?" Chrysanthemum Douluo sneered sinisterly.

"Elder Chrysanthemum, long time no see."

Dai Weisi's lips curled slightly as he spoke with feigned calmness. As the Prince of Star Luo, he absolutely could not lose when it came to presence.

"I wonder why Elder Chrysanthemum attacked our carriage. Perhaps you wish to be thrown into the sky-jail again? Or is it that Spirit Hall wishes to go to war with the Star Luo Empire? Let me state this in advance, Elder Chrysanthemum: the excuse of being drunk and making a mistake won't work this time! If you are caught, you will be beheaded and displayed to the public!"

"Hmph, cut the crap!" Chrysanthemum Douluo shouted. "You little brat, today is the day you die! But don't you worry, after you're dead, I will do everything I can to extract the medicinal power of the Transcendent Chrysanthemum from your corpse. Dai Weisi, your body will be my stepping stone to the Super Douluo realm! Brothers, get them! Kill them all, leave no one alive! Whoever takes Dai Weisi's head, I will report it to the Supreme Pontiff, who will reward them with a ten-thousand-year soul bone, and I will personally add a hundred thousand gold soul coins!"

"As you command!"

Learning that they could obtain a ten-thousand-year soul bone and a hundred thousand gold soul coins, the twenty soul masters became as hyper as if they'd been injected with chicken blood.

Like afterimages, they vied to be the first to rush toward Dai Weisi's carriage. They were all agility-attack type soul masters; no other type could carry out missions of pursuit and assassination.

"Hahaha, the ten-thousand-year soul bone and the gold soul coins are all mine!" a Soul Emperor whose spirit was the Gale Demon Wolf shouted, charging toward Dai Weisi's carriage like a fierce gust of wind.

"Fool!"

Dai Weisi handed the trembling Tang Yuehua to the two purple-robed female soul masters. "Take care of Lady Yuehua!"

With that said, a repeating flintlock gun instantly appeared in his hand. He aimed at the approaching Gale Demon Wolf Soul Emperor and pulled the trigger.

"Hmph, a mere fire poker won't be able to hurt—"

Bang—

The gunshot echoed abruptly. A bullet shot out of the barrel toward the Gale Demon Wolf Soul Emperor. Before he could finish his sentence, the bullet pierced through his head.

A bloody hole suddenly appeared on his forehead. White brain matter mixed with blood sprayed out, looking just like soft tofu pudding with chili oil added.
