Douluo: The Son of Martial Soul, Deceiving All the Women

Chapter 247 Finding the Treasure

Three months later, in the Papal Palace of Wuhun City, Bai Yu looked at the letter in his hand and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Tsk, what a crushing defeat. After two months of fighting, they've lost twenty-one cities. The Haotian Sect is quite formidable, having just emerged from the mountains."

"However, now that the little angel's letter has arrived, I should go to Tiandou. It just so happens that Rongrong and the others are tired of staying in Wuhun City. I'll take them out to have some fun and experience battlefield life."

When Tang San brought back the news that the Haotian Sect had come out of seclusion to help Xingluo attack Tiandou, the Xingluo Emperor immediately organized a ceremony to welcome the Haotian Sect.

After the ceremony, without saying a word, they immediately dispatched troops. The army marched for about a month and arrived at the border between the two countries, where they officially engaged in battle with Tiandou.

Of course, Xingluo's military action could not be kept secret from Tiandou, and Tiandou Empire also reinforced its borders in an attempt to stop Xingluo.

At first, the noble lords of Tiandou didn't take this battle seriously at all, thinking that Xingluo would just take some spoils and go back like before.

Unexpectedly, from the start of the battle, Xingluo made unstoppable progress, capturing cities and territories. Two months later, Tiandou has lost twenty-one cities.

Now, the noble lords of Tiandou were not happy. They thought the Xingluo people had no martial ethics and were trying to deceive and ambush them!

Therefore, they all wrote to Qian Renxue, asking her to invite the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant School to help them in the battle.

At the same time, they generously donated money and people, hoping that Tian Dou could win this battle, at the very least, by driving Xing Luo back.

After all, if Tian Dou's territory shrinks, their sources of income will also decrease, so why would the nobles be happy about that?

Although the nobles unanimously petitioned Qian Renxue, hoping he would find reinforcements to launch a counterattack against Xingluo, they never expected that their new emperor would give them such a big surprise.

During the court assembly, she directly asked them, "If she could get the Martial Soul Hall to intervene, what do you think, my dear ministers?"

Upon hearing this question, everyone in the court fell silent. They did want to find help, but this helper seemed a bit too powerful.
If they really invite them, will Tian Dou be able to send them back?
However, although many ministers of the Heavenly Dou Sect were worried, this was not a reason for them not to invite them. After all, if the Spirit Hall intervened, they could take a big bite out of Xingluo.

So after much wrangling, everyone reached a consensus: first, they would invite the people from the Spirit Hall to Heaven Dou City for a meeting, and then discuss how to help them later.

In the Papal Palace, Bai Yu muttered to himself while holding the letter, then got up and went back to the Holy Son's Palace.

"Bing'er, Zhuqing, why are only the two of you here? Where are the others?"

In the training ground behind the Holy Son Hall, Zhu Zhuqing and Shui Bing'er were sparring, and the two were having a lively match.

Hearing Bai Yu's question, they stopped and said with a somewhat helpless expression:
"They went to the back mountain. I don't know which swindler Xiaowu bought a treasure map from, and they're all going to look for treasure."

"Besides Sister Erlong going to find Lingyuan Douluo and thus escaping disaster, even Sister Ayin was dragged along, supposedly because Sister Ayin's domain could lend them a hand."

Bai Yu's lips twitched. He thought to himself, "These guys are really bored out of their minds. What treasures could there be in the back mountains of Wuhun City, apart from some free-range soul beasts?"
If there really was treasure, would they even have a chance to dig it up? The Spirit Hall would have unearthed it long ago.

"Fine, if they want to go out and have fun, let them have some fun. Staying in Wuhun City for the past two years has indeed been quite boring."

"However, things won't be boring after tomorrow. You'll get to experience what excitement is."

"White Fish, what's so exciting? Are you going to take us out?"

After Bai Yu finished speaking, before Zhu Zhuqing and Shui Bing'er could ask any questions, a voice came from behind them. It was Ning Rongrong and the others returning. Bai Yu turned around, looked at the group who hadn't found any treasure but were covered in dust, and smiled.

"Hehe, didn't you guys go treasure hunting? How was it? Did you find anything?"

Xiao Wu looked indignant and raised her hand to wave her fist.

"What treasure? We dug for ages and all we found were ants and bugs. If that guy was selling a treasure map, even if it was fake, he should at least have buried something!"

"It's fun when treasure hunters dig up something, isn't it? But I didn't expect to find nothing at all. I hope I never see him again, or I'll smash his head in!"

"Forget about that, let's talk about your business. What was that 'exciting' thing you mentioned earlier?"

Baiyu shook his head. People shouldn't be too idle, otherwise they'll want to try everything. Even knowing that the so-called treasure map is fake, they still have to try it.

"Xingluo is attacking Tiandou, so the current Tiandou emperor, Xue Qinghe, wrote to me asking for help."

"I have a fairly good relationship with him, so I agreed to this. The Spirit Hall will send people to help you soon. You can think about it yourselves and see who wants to go to the battlefield for a spin."

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, the women opened their mouths in surprise.

However, they already knew something about this beforehand, so they didn't ask too many questions, but instead discussed whether or not to go.

Fortunately, Baiyu wasn't in a hurry. He went out and asked the guards to prepare some food, and the group ate and talked at the same time.

After Liu Erlong returned from Ling Yuan's place, everyone had finished their discussion. In the end, everyone except A Yin wanted to go and see for themselves.

After all, they had never witnessed a large-scale war between the two countries.

“Ah Yin, they’re all going, aren’t you going? I probably won’t be back much before the war between the two countries ends, and then you’ll be all alone here.”

While everyone else went to prepare, Baiyu turned to look at Ayin, who was tidying up the table, and asked her a question.

Ah Yin shook her head and said softly:
"I won't go. I'll stay at the Spirit Hall. But war between two countries is no child's play. Baiyu, you must protect them."

At this point, Ah Yin paused, looking at Bai Yu with a strange expression.

"Besides, it's not like I'm the only one left, is it? Bibi Dong will stay in Wuhun City too, won't she?"

Bai Yu's lips twitched. How could this be the same? His affair with Bibi Dong hadn't been exposed yet. Apart from the two people involved, only Hu Liena and A Yin knew about it.

"Fine, if you don't want to go, then you don't have to. Anyway, with your personality, you probably don't like those bloody scenes."

Seeing that Baiyu was a little embarrassed, Ayin couldn't help but smile. Then, as if she had thought of something, her smile faded and she frowned.

"Baiyu, you just said you're going to participate in this war, right? But if you go, what will happen to the Spirit Hall?"

"I heard that Bibi Dong hasn't come out of seclusion yet. If you leave, won't there be no one to handle the Spirit Hall's affairs?"
