Douluo: From Rusted Spear to Emperor-Slaying Spear

Chapter 164: Encirclement and Killing Xiao Wu
At the same time, Ji Wuming and his group had already taken advantage of the opportunity of Tang Hao's battle with the Spirit Hall to leave the Spirit City.
Although Bibi Dong would not attack them under Xue Qinghe's protection, for safety's sake, Ji Wuming had to take advantage of this chaotic situation and leave Wuhun City as soon as possible.
Fortunately, they were protected by Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi along the way, and nothing unexpected happened. They successfully arrived at a small town 20 miles away from Wuhun City.
"Ji boy, shouldn't we be heading north back to Tiandou City? Why are you asking me to ride west?"

Dugu Bo, who was sitting on the front of the carriage, looked at Ji Wuming beside him, very puzzled. He continued,

"Are we going to Hanhai City, or to the Sea God Island you mentioned?"

"Neither. Actually, I need to complete something. I will not be returning to Tiandou City with you on this trip."

"What did you say? If you don't go back, do you know how dangerous it will be after the Soul Master Competition? If Tang Hao finds you, there's no way you'll survive."

After Dugu Bo defeated Tang Hao, he told Ji Wuming about the battle between the two. He only hoped that he would stay in Tiandou City and stay by his side so that he could better protect his life.

But unexpectedly, Ji Wuming now wants to escape from his protection?
Ji Wuming looked at the extremely nervous Dugu Bo and explained,

"I understand your concerns, but I have to do this. If I miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to get it again."

Dugu Bo was confused by these words, but soon he understood something.
"No, going alone is no different from committing suicide. Have you considered Yanyan's feelings? I'd better go with you."

"Of course I have considered it, that's why I discussed it with you outside the car."

He turned around and smiled at Dugu Yan and the others sitting in the car. Zhu Zhuqing was absorbing the right leg bone of Jifeng he had given her, while Ye Lingling was absorbing the wisdom skull that was the result of 5 years of spiritual concentration.
In his initial thoughts, Ji Wuming wanted to directly absorb the wisdom skull of spiritual concentration, which was also one of his ultimate goals in participating in the Soul Master Competition.

But after repeated consideration, he decided to give up absorbing the wisdom skull that condensed the spirit, and it was at the request of the three women that Ye Lingling absorbed this soul bone.

"And you must stay in Tiandou City at all times, just in case. This is not only to protect my little sister and the others, but also to deter the Spirit Hall."

Ji Wuming was also quite helpless about this. Xiao Wu had separated from the Tang family father and son, and Tang Hao had no experience to protect Xiao Wu again. Therefore, this period of time was the best opportunity to hunt Xiao Wu.

As Dugu Bo is half his relative, Ji Wuming certainly wants Dugu Bo to stay by his side all the time, but this idea is not feasible. Dugu Yan and the others must return to Tiandou City first, so they will miss the time.

"I will be very careful this time. If I encounter something I cannot do, I will flee immediately. Moreover, I am carrying a poison that is strong enough to threaten a Titled Douluo. How can a mere Tang Hao kill me?"

"The most important thing is that we can't catch up on time when we go back and forth."

"This……"

Dugu Bo didn't know what to say for a moment. According to the talent he had shown now, if he was not a Soul Douluo or above, he would not be able to catch Ji Wuming at all. Even if he was caught up, the poison he developed could cause considerable interference.

"Well then, after I send Yanyan and the others back, I'll come look for you again."

Dugu Bo was still a little worried about Ji Wuming's safety.

"Then I'll go first. Take care."

Ji Wuming didn't hesitate and quickly used his spirit bone skills to fly into a dense forest, while Dugu Bo led the rest of the group and galloped towards Tiandou City.

As night fell, Tang Hao sat by a campfire, roasting food while watching Xiao Wu wake up.
"Child, you miss Xiao San's mother very much. You and she are both 10-year-old transformed soul beasts. Your current strength is low and you haven't reached maturity. Staying with Xiao San is not only dangerous for you, but also for him."

"You should go back to where you belong. When you reach maturity and have the ability to protect yourself, and Xiao San has the ability to protect others, we can meet again."

Tang Hao has been kind enough to Xiao Wu. If it were in the past, when he discovered Xiao Wu's true identity, he would not hesitate to knock Xiao Wu unconscious, and wait until Tang San breaks through to the Soul Saint level, and then let him absorb the 10-year soul ring to maximize the benefits of the soul ring and soul bone.

But now the relationship between Xiao Wu and Tang San is not that of ordinary teammates, so as a father, I have to give up my previous immature idea.

"That mistress..."

Before Xiao Wu finished speaking, Tang Hao spoke first.

"Xiao San is fine. With my help, he will become stronger in the future. Then you two can be together openly."

"Let's go quickly while the night is still dark."

Xiao Wu rushed towards the Star Dou Great Forest with reluctance to leave.

After Tang Hao came out of Wuhun City, the place he stayed was less than ten miles away from the Star Dou Great Forest. For Xiao Wu, it was undoubtedly the safest distance to return.
At this moment, Xiao Wu was rushing back to the Xingdou Great Forest. However, at this moment, she relied on the keen perception of her soul beast to discover that there were two sturdy men approaching her quickly about a mile or two away.

"No, I have to run."

Although Xiao Wu didn't know whether those two were friends or enemies, it was a turbulent time! Maybe the Spirit Hall was unwilling to accept this, and those two were the Soul Hunting Team, who came specifically to hunt him down.

Xiao Wu immediately ran quickly towards the Star Dou Great Forest, using the teleportation soul skill as she ran to increase the distance between her and the pursuers.

However, a flare was launched into the sky above the forest, and the next second, a Soul Emperor had already flown behind her, the distance between the two was less than 300 meters.
"Third soul skill, Eagle cry."

Sharp sound waves shot towards Xiao Wu, but she dodged them with her nimble and flexible skills, and turned around to release the Zhuge Divine Crossbow towards the attacker.
Although the Zhuge Divine Crossbow is quite powerful, its power is severely reduced when used against the Soul Emperor, and it can even be said that it has no killing effect at all.
"Fifth soul skill, air blast."

The Soul Emperor flew at a high speed, causing the surrounding air to be rapidly pumped, thus producing a dull and powerful sonic boom.
Xiao Wu was on the edge of the air explosion. She was affected and flew away, falling under a huge tree.

The Soul Emperor saw the opportunity and released his third soul skill towards Xiao Wu again.

"The fourth soul skill, the invincible golden body."
