"Old poison! Die!"

After escaping by means of a shady trick, Dugu Bo was not able to be happy for long, as the ghosts soon caught up with him.

After all, Guimei is a Titled Douluo of the Agility Attack system, and his soul power level is also higher. In terms of speed, Dugu Bo is no match for him.

Although the ghosts were afraid of Dugu Bo's poison and could not take him down directly, they were more than capable of entangling him.

During this period, Yue Guan also caught up.

The poisoned Yue Guan attacked more fiercely than before, obviously he was angry.

"Yue Guan! Do you want to die?" Dugu Bo was also depressed.

Yue Guan was caught off guard by the attack just now, and had already been poisoned by his snake venom! Instead of taking the time to detoxify, he kept chasing after him?

"Old poison creature, you think too highly of yourself!" Yue Guan said coldly.

"I am a level 94 Titled Douluo. That little bit of poison can't kill me!"

The reason they were unable to capture Dugu Bo was that they were worried about the poison caused by the old poisoner's self-explosion, not because they were afraid of the poison in his hands.

"Damn it!"

Facing the serious siege of the two Titled Douluo, Dugu Bo was no match at all. Coupled with the injuries on his body, he could hardly suppress the backlash of the poison.

Seeing the seriously injured Dugu Bo, Yue Guan and the other two restrained their attacks and deliberately kept their distance.

They may be angry, but if Dugu Bo goes crazy and explodes himself, they won't be able to withstand it.

"Are you going to die?" Xuan Ming asked suddenly.

Dugu Bo groaned, "If I die, you can't escape!"

Just when Dugu Bo was about to activate his eighth soul skill to gamble with Yue Guan and the others, he seemed to sense something and accelerated again, rushing towards the depths of the jungle.

After a while, the dense forest began to become sparse, and bursts of fire appeared before our eyes again.

"Military camp?" Xuan Ming saw several military flags of the Tiandou Empire at a glance.

This is the border between the Tiandou Empire and the Xingluo Empire. Could this be the stationing place of the Tiandou Empire's army? Seeing the military camp, Dugu Bo not only did not slow down, but plunged in.

He no longer had the strength to continue fighting with Jugui. If he continued to fight, he would be killed by the backlash of the poison before Yueguan could kill him! The only way to survive now was to use the Tiandou Empire's military camp to entangle Yueguan and the others.

"alert!!"

After Dugu Bo rushed in, the originally quiet military camp suddenly became active. Densely packed soldiers gathered together, and the firelight quickly illuminated the entire camp.

"What's going on?"

In the central army camp, the most heavily guarded area, Prince Xue Xing, upon hearing the noise, immediately summoned his generals.

"A sneak attack by the Xingluo army?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, someone saw Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo from the Spirit Hall." said a soldier.

"They seem to be hunting someone."

"Hunt?" Prince Xue Xing frowned.

Who is worthy of being hunted down personally by the two Titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall?

"Your Highness, they are rampaging in our military camp. If we don't stop them, the army will be in chaos and Xing Luo may take the opportunity to launch a surprise attack." said a general.

Prince Xue Xing thought about it and led a group of generals out of the tent.

"I wonder what brings Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo to our camp?"

Xue Xing's voice, empowered by her soul power, quickly spread, and Dugu Bo, who was fleeing in front, happened to land not far from the big tent.

"The Spirit Hall is arresting wanted criminals, and I hope you will cooperate!" Yue Guan said loudly.

"Criminal?" Prince Xue Xing and a group of generals vigilantly surrounded Dugu Bo's location.

The seriously injured Dugu Bo no longer had the strength to run, and could only stand still and suppress the backlash with all his strength.

"Poison Douluo?" Prince Xue Xing was stunned.

Why did Ju Gui chase Dugu Bo?

"Prince Xue Xing?" Dugu Bo was also a little surprised.

Before the two could say anything, Yue Guan and Gui Mei caught up with them.

"You old poison, you have no way to escape."

Yue Guan realized that Dugu Bo was already at the end of his strength so he didn't waste any more time and took action directly.

Upon seeing this, Prince Xue Xing raised his hand, and the generals surrounding him stepped forward and blocked the Yue Guan.

The leading general was an eight-ringed Soul Douluo, and the remaining generals were all seven-ringed Soul Saints. Faced with such a situation, Yue Guan had no choice but to stop.

"Prince Xue Xing, what do you mean?" Yue Guan asked.

"Ju Douluo, please calm down." Prince Xue Xing walked to Dugu Bo.

"Poison Douluo and I are old acquaintances. I don't know what happened to cause you two to act like this. You're willing to attack us even if you break into our camp?"

Dugu Bo did not speak. Although he knew Xue Xing, it was because of his son who died early from poison, so they did not have much friendship.

He was very surprised that Xue Xing came forward to help at this time.

"You don't need to worry about the affairs of the Spirit Hall." Yue Guan said lightly.

When recruitment fails, the person is attacked and killed. It is not a glorious thing to make it public.

"Of course, I am not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Spirit Hall. However, this is the central military camp of my Tiandou Empire. Since your two princes have barged in here, I cannot just ignore it." Prince Xue Xing said.

"Moreover, Poison Douluo is a guest of the royal family of our Tiandou Empire. Since the two Your Majesties want to kill him, there should be an explanation."

"Guest?" Yue Guan was stunned and turned to look at the ghost.

Guimei shook his head. He had never heard of this matter.

Dugu Bo was busy suppressing the backlash of the poison and had no time to speak.

"Xue Xing, don't talk nonsense. I haven't heard when Dugu Bo became a royal guest of your Tiandou Empire." Yue Guan said.

"Ju Douluo doesn't know that I used to be good friends with the son of Poison Douluo. This happened many years ago. At that time, Poison Douluo had not yet been promoted to Titled Douluo, so naturally it was not spread out." Prince Xue Xing said.

Yue Guan frowned, "Even so, this matter is..."

"Your Majesty, this is the military camp of our Tiandou Empire's 200,000-strong army!" Prince Xue Xing reminded.

"Your Excellencies, as the highly respected Titled Douluo elders of the Spirit Hall, I believe you will not act recklessly, right?"

"You!" Yue Guan's face changed.

If a fight breaks out between an army of 200,000, he and Guimei may be able to escape, but they cannot afford the responsibility of rashly going into war with the Tiandou army!

"Xue Xing, do you really want to go against the Spirit Hall?" Yue Guan asked coldly.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. How dare Xue Xing do this?" Prince Xue Xing bowed.

"Xue Xing has absolutely no intention of opposing the Spirit Hall, but this is our army's camp. If your majesties start a fight here, our soldiers won't be able to withstand it. So, I hope your majesties will think twice."

"…"

Yue Guan was silent for a long time, then turned around and looked at the ghost.

The ghost just shook his head.

Xue Xing obviously wanted to protect Dugu Bo. If the two of them continued to take action, they might have a chance to kill this old poisonous creature, but the trouble that would be caused afterwards was not something they could afford.

Things have come to this point, so we have no choice but to report the matter to the Elders' Hall for further discussion.
