Ji Siyuan and Wang Dong'er's return journey was very smooth, without any obstacles.

The speed has also increased considerably.

The advantage of the soul power brought by the Goddess of Light Butterfly of the Third Ring is not just the longer flight time, but also the increased flight speed.

She clung to Ji Siyuan's body and flew through the air. Although it wasn't as fast as flying alone, it was still a bit faster than walking.

Ji Siyuan: "So you're saying that your third soul skill is Butterfly God Slash? If it were an enhancement-type soul skill, we could get back much faster."

After saying that, Wang Dong'er shook Ji Siyuan to express her dissatisfaction: acquiring soul skills is not something she can decide.

Tang San: "Be careful, there are people ahead, twelve in number, the strongest of whom is a Soul Saint."

Ji Siyuan immediately stopped Wang Dong'er.

The twelve people, including a Soul Saint, were hiding and waiting for the two of them. This was not a surprise; rather, they were preparing to kill them.

The trap has been set up, just waiting for Ji Siyuan and Wang Dong'er to slip inside.

"Run in the opposite direction, full speed ahead!"

Wang Dong'er immediately understood the difference when she heard "escape" instead of "run".

The butterfly flaps its wings, displaying its most beautiful wings at its fastest speed.

With enemies ahead, they had no choice but to run away.

Fortunately, they had just finished resting and had only just started flying again. Wang Dong'er's soul power was abundant, allowing her to fly for a while.

Dai Huabin, who was lying in ambush, was still hidden under the effect of the soul tool. He had been waiting for two days.

When doing bad things, one never feels tired. Dai Huabin was in this state. He went berserk and wanted to ambush Ji Siyuan, so he chose to hide himself on the road from Tiandou City to Shrek Academy.

He ambushed at not just one location, but several.

After careful deduction, the guards identified several potential ambush locations and dispersed to prepare for interception.

Each interception point was equipped with specific fireworks.

Dai Huabin only knew about the notification fireworks, but he didn't know about the evacuation fireworks.

Because Dai Huabin would never agree to let them retreat, but they were human after all and knew that special circumstances might arise, so a small number of them agreed to retreat with fireworks, even though it wouldn't be of any use.

Dai Huabin, as the boss, was also the weakest person in this interception plan, while he was surrounded by the most powerful members.

Eleven members stayed by his side as his guards to prevent any unexpected situations.

He was also very lucky, as he directly blocked Ji Siyuan and Wang Dong'er's way back to Shrek Academy.

"The wings of the Goddess of Light Butterfly definitely belong to Wang Dong'er." Dai Huabin was absolutely certain, because he had never seen a second Goddess of Light Butterfly martial soul, and only Wang Dong'er met the criteria.

"Prepare for an ambush!"

The guards around him sensed something was wrong: "Young Master, they don't seem to be coming in our direction, but rather flying towards Tian Dou City."

"What?" Dai Huabin immediately stood up. The difference in their cultivation levels made it impossible for him to tell whether the wings were flapping towards him. But after such a short time, the wings hadn't grown any larger, so it was almost certain that they were flapping in the opposite direction.

"How could that be? Did I forget something?" Dai Huabin was very confident in his ambush and refused to believe that he had been discovered.

If they hadn't discovered him, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er would still have had a chance to return. But if they had discovered him, finding a target later would have been much more difficult.

He couldn't afford to gamble. If he failed to seize this opportunity, he didn't know when another chance would come. Moreover, Ji Siyuan and Wang Dong'er were both geniuses, and their growth would be even more unpredictable.

Opportunity knocks but once.

Dai Huabin gave the order: "Fire the signal flare! All troops, attack! Make sure to kill them. We must find them alive or dead. For each living person found, the reward is one million gold soul coins or a thousand-year soul bone! For each dead person, the reward is five hundred thousand gold soul coins plus a thousand-year spirit item."

This was completely beyond his capabilities. Even within the White Tiger Duke's mansion, only his father was qualified to allocate such a reward. Giving him a soul bone was entirely different from rewarding a guard.

He offered this reward solely for revenge, a vengeful act of retribution against Ji Siyuan. The excruciating pain of comminuted fractures, the agonizing agony of flames burning his body inch by inch—he had no doubt that if they hadn't been outside Yan Shaozhe's office, without a suitable weapon, those three would have surely severed his limbs, ensuring he would never grow back.

Even if it is not completely broken, a comminuted fracture can be considered as a severed hand.

It was only because his family could find a powerful healing soul master that he was able to recover. But there will definitely be aftereffects.

If they can be captured alive, Ji Siyuan and Wang Dong'er must experience the agony of having all their bones broken, and be subjected to slow slicing, with pieces of flesh being cut off. Only in this way can his suffering be balanced.

The more he thought about it, the more frantic he became. Dai Huabin abandoned his reason and had only one thought in his mind: to capture Ji Siyuan and Wang Dong'er.

Several Soul Emperors began their charge, while Soul Saints stayed behind to protect Dai Huabin.

Several Soul Emperors began their charge, while Soul Saints stayed behind to protect Dai Huabin.

As fellow Soul Masters, Dai Huabin's speed is definitely no match for Wang Dong'er's ability to fly. Even if Wang Dong'er needed to carry Ji Siyuan, Dai Huabin still couldn't catch up.

A month wouldn't be enough for Dai Huabin to fully recover, and even under the protection and guidance of the Soul Saint, his recovery speed wouldn't be much faster.

Wang Dong'er also sensed several new presences behind her: "You seem to have quite a few enemies."

Ji Siyuan: "Is it possible that they are our enemies?" He didn't even need to think to know who was hunting them down; it was definitely that idiot Dai Huabin.

His other future enemies are currently completely unaware of him. Even if they were to notice him, it's highly unlikely they would only send a few Soul Saints.

Wang Dong'er is responsible for flying; she's the power source. Ji Siyuan is responsible for interception.

How can a Grand Soul Master intercept a Soul Emperor's pursuit? There's absolutely no way.

All he could do was throw out three crimson lotuses, waiting for the Soul Emperor to arrive before they bloomed. For a second-ring Soul Emperor, that was about all he could do with the Blazing Crimson Lotus; even planting three lotuses in a pre-planned burst was already quite impressive.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up: "It's true that the mind is clearest when facing life and death." He threw out a few bottles of wine, using his soul power to place them securely on the ground, waiting for the enemy to arrive.

The Soul Emperor, who was chasing behind, saw Ji Siyuan throw something away and scoffed, "Hmph, thinking you can escape our pursuit by lightening your weight?"

Only high-level soul tools can intercept the objects thrown by a Grand Soul Master.

However, what Ji Siyuan threw out didn't seem like a high-level soul tool at all. The Soul Emperors naturally assumed that Ji Siyuan was trying to reduce the weight of his attack.

Tragically, their logic is completely flawed. With a spatial soul tool, why would they need to throw things out to reduce weight?

They may have considered obstructing the hunt, but in the face of the credit for capturing the prey, nothing else matters.

They weren't the only one at the encirclement point; Soul Emperors were also present at other encirclement points, and they've now converged. With so many people, they're bound to vie for the top credit!

A reckless charge will not bring success, but rather a blooming red lotus.
