Douluo Continent: I Have a Nameless Law

Dongfang Lingyun snorted coldly, and her fifth spirit ring lit up, with a crimson flame spreading from her right arm to the gun.

"Ahhhh!!!"

The crimson flames spread across Li Dou's entire body in an instant, igniting him like a candle. The terrifying heat caused Li Dou to let out an extremely painful scream, and within three breaths, he was completely reduced to ashes.

This is one of the uses of her fifth soul skill, "Aggressive as Fire".

This soul skill was obtained by her master after searching for a full month in an extremely hot volcanic area, where they finally found an incredibly rare ten-thousand-year-old Crimson Flame Phoenix Python.

When her soul skill is activated, a layer of crimson flames will ignite on her body. The flames are of the highest grade under the ultimate fire and can be changed at will.

It also increases her strength and speed by 80%, and her attack power by 70%, and these effects can be stacked.

It also has a berserk state, which increases all attributes by 50% and adds 20% fire damage to each attack.

That move was one of the uses of her soul skill. She could change its shape at will, and the power of her soul would spread from the spear to Li Dou's body, instantly igniting him.

Holding the spear upright beside her, Dongfang Lingyun muttered coldly, "I was planning to have some fun, but who told you to break the spear Master gave me?"

To her, her master not only saved her life, but also raised and taught her, and was like a father to her. She naturally cherished the weapon that he had carefully commissioned to be made for her.

During each battle, a great deal of soul power is used to reinforce this spear.

From the direction they came from, several figures rushed towards them; they were none other than the Soul Emperors who had arrived late.

"Miss, are you alright?"

Although Dongfang Lingyun was not well-known on the continent due to Gu Han and Bibi Dong's considerations, she was still a princess within the Spirit Hall. These Soul Emperors were from Spirit City, so they naturally knew each other.

"Hmph!" Dongfang Lingyun snorted lightly upon hearing this, "Now you should call me General."

"Uh, yes, General, are you alright?"

The Soul Emperors had no choice but to go along with the other party, but judging from their appearance, they should be fine.

Back in Jincheng, defenses were already being built, and another 30,000 men were stationed in the valley of Jincheng, forming a defensive triangle with Jincheng, allowing them to attack or defend as needed.

The construction of the checkpoint in Jincheng Valley will take time, but the military camp can be set up quickly.

Upon arriving at the city lord's mansion, Shi Dong was discussing defense matters with a group of generals in the main hall. When they saw Dongfang Lingyun enter, everyone turned around.

Dongfang Lingyun blinked, gave an awkward smile, and carefully waved to Shi Dong: "Hi, senior brother, I'm back."

Shi Dong sighed and asked, "Have you caught up with the person who escaped?"

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Lingyun smiled confidently: "Of course, Senior Brother, you don't even know who I am. A mere Soul Saint and two Soul Kings are nothing but chickens and dogs, and I have already killed them all."

Nodding, Shi Dong showed no surprise at all upon hearing that Dongfang Lingyun had killed a Soul Saint, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Then Shi Dong resumed the previous topic, properly assigning tasks to the generals regarding defense.

Dongfang Lingyun sat to one side, listening attentively and nodding occasionally.

After all the generals had left, Dongfang Lingyun hurriedly asked, "Senior brother, what about me? What should I do?"

Shi Dong pondered for a moment and said, "You are responsible for protecting the commander-in-chief."

"Ugh, so boring."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Lingyun immediately sat back down, feeling bored. What "protect the commander"? It was clearly just telling her to stay by your side and not wander off.

However, Dongfang Lingyun obediently calmed down.

Not long after, people in Häagen-Dazs learned that Jin City had been occupied by the Spirit Hall and that Li Dou, the general sent there, had died.

They did not react to this. His Majesty sent them to guard against the Spirit Hall's movements, not to launch an attack.

Jincheng is just a small city; losing it is no big deal.

But Häagen-Dazs is different; it's a large city and the capital of a principality, so it can't be lost again.

These days, Häagen-Dazs City is under heavy guard and extremely tense, but for the next half month there was no news at all, and the Soul Douluo powerhouse breathed a sigh of relief.

This place isn't exactly close to Wuhun City, but it's not far either. If a real battle were to break out, putting aside the logistical issues, the sheer number of experts on the other side would be terrifying, making it extremely difficult to hold out.

Before long, an armored soldier came to the Soul Douluo and knelt on one knee.

"My lord, a group of soul masters have arrived outside. They claim to be from the Spirit Hall, delivered a letter, and then left."

"Oh, where's the letter?"

Upon hearing this, the Soul Douluo immediately pressed for details, saying that the letter from the Spirit Hall must be related to Jin Cheng.

"My lord, here it is, please take a look."

The armored soldier took out an unopened letter from his bosom and presented it with both hands.

The Contra Douluo reached out and took the letter, then waved for the man to leave.

After the armored soldiers withdrew, Contra opened the envelope and began to read it.

"The Spirit Hall had no intention of being enemies with Star Luo, but Star Luo started the war first. The Spirit Hall is not one to be bullied. Today, we will take a small city from Star Luo as punishment. If war breaks out again, the Spirit Hall will completely ally with Heaven Dou and march south to capture the dragon!!"

Contra opened his eyes wide. Below it was written: "Started by the Star Luo Emperor."

His lips twitched. "No, you wrote it to His Majesty, so what's the meaning of sending it to me?"

Well, thankfully it's just an ordinary envelope with no writing on it. He can just get a new one and put it back in.

This letter was Gu Han's idea; he wanted to provoke Dai Hao so that if Dai Hao acted rashly and sent people to attack Wuhun City, then Wuhun Hall could take the opportunity to continue its southward advance.

If they don't dare to fight, hehe, that's even better. We can gain a city for free, develop stealthily, and watch the two great empires tear each other apart. Once the Spirit Hall's military strength is fully developed, it will be time to strike.

This was actually out of necessity. Although the Spirit Hall had powerful spirit masters, it was not a country before and had a small army. The power of spirit masters alone was not enough to control the entire continent, so a sufficient army was still needed.

Gu Han estimated that it wouldn't actually cost that much; 300,000 would be enough.

Contra pondered for a moment, then had an envelope prepared, put the letter in it, and sent a Soul Emperor back to Star Luo City.

Chapter 307 Yu Xiaogang Takes Action Again

Gu Han's move was actually just a little trick, all to annoy Dai Hao.

However, Dai Hao was furious at Gu Han's little trick.

"Ugh, I'm so angry! Gu Han, that brat, he's gone too far!!"

With a loud bang, the stone platform in front of Dai Hao was shattered into pieces by a single palm strike, startling the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs who turned around repeatedly, lowered their heads, and quickly lined up to slip away.

This is nothing! This is blatant provocation! It's a blatant disrespect for Dai Hao and his Star Luo Empire!

Several figures entered the back garden, and from afar they could hear Dai Hao's furious outburst.

Yu Xiaogang spoke first: "Your Majesty, please calm down and listen to what I have to say."

Dai Hao glanced at Yu Xiaogang, remembering that this was the guy who caused this incident, but due to the other party's strength and the Holy Sect behind him, he suppressed his anger and said.

"explain."

"Your Majesty, may I take a look at that letter first?"

Yu Xiaogang appeared calm and composed. Although he had previously been furious when the truth about the destruction of Blue Lightning was revealed, he had returned to his usual self after venting his anger.

Dai Hao frowned slightly, but still handed the letter to the other party.

Yu Xiaogang glanced at it a few times, chuckled, and shook his head: "Your Majesty, it's just a small city. Since the Spirit Hall wants it, just give it to them. Besides, with our Holy Sect here, as long as we deal with the Heaven Dou Empire, then let alone just that small city, the entire Spirit City will be groveling at the feet of the Star Luo Empire."

Upon hearing this, Dai Hao's expression relaxed, clearly pleased with Yu Xiaogang's words.

Yes, it's just a small city. If the Spirit Hall wants it, then give it to them. After we deal with the Heaven Dou Empire, we'll make them pay back tenfold or a hundredfold.

"I wonder what important matter brings you to see me, Master?"

Having calmed down, Dai Hao's tone also became more composed.

Although Yu Xiaogang was already a titled Douluo-level powerhouse, he preferred to be called "Master" rather than "Your Majesty" to highlight his uniqueness.

"Your Majesty, we can put the matter of the Spirit Hall aside for now. Our current target is the Heaven Dou Empire. On the front lines, a Title Douluo from the Spirit Hall has already appeared, repeatedly obstructing our Holy Sect's Title Douluo experts. Therefore, I would like to offer Your Majesty a strategy that will surely catch Heaven Dou off guard."

"Oh, please speak, Master."

Upon hearing this, Dai Hao asked with great interest. Although this guy in front of him had lost 50,000 of his troops, he was indeed quite capable.

Yu Xiaogang spread out the map and pointed to the easternmost part of the Star Dou Great Forest. There was a mountain range there, and on the east side of the mountain range was a winding and narrow path that was not far from the coast. The terrain was almost identical to that of Shanhaiguan.

"Your Majesty, I have sent people to scout this road many times. The defenses are sparse. We only need to send 20,000 light cavalry, along with a few Soul Douluo and Soul Saint experts, to ride at full speed from the Lingdou Plain through the night, bypassing the mountains around the Ancient Lei Kingdom and Jialing Pass, and crossing the Frost River under cover of darkness to directly reach Tiandou City."

"At that time, we can take them down by capturing their leader first, and seize the Heavenly Dou royal family in one fell swoop. This war can then be ended sooner."

"A brilliant plan!"

Dai Hao's eyes lit up, and after a moment of contemplation, he realized that Yu Xiaogang wanted to use this opportunity to avenge his previous defeat. So he went along with it and asked, "However, all of our generals are fighting on the front lines. Does the master have any suitable candidates?"

Sure enough, the next moment Yu Xiaogang smiled confidently and volunteered, "I am not talented, but I am willing to personally lead the troops to share Your Majesty's burdens."

Dai Hao pretended to think for a moment and said, "In that case, I will leave it to you, Master. I will personally see you off in three days."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."

Yu Xiaogang smiled to himself, thinking to himself, "Heh, Gu Han, this time, you've miscalculated one thing, and that one thing will cause you to lose everything!!"

Three days later, Yu Xiaogang mobilized 20,000 cavalrymen, and then took away ten Soul Saints and five Soul Douluo powerhouses from the Holy Sect. Under the watchful eyes of Dai Hao and the entire court, he left Star Luo City.

Along with Yu Xiaogang, the second-in-command of the Li family of Xingluo City and several experts from his family also left Wuhun City, heading straight for Jincheng.

Upon learning that Li Dou had been killed on the front lines, the Li family was furious. However, the empire showed no intention of sending troops. In a fit of rage, the second-in-command of the Li family left Xingluo City with several experts, intending to avenge his third brother.

Of course, this was just a minor incident.

At this time, within Wuhun City, Gu Han was also constantly monitoring the movements of the two great empires.

At this moment, with the intervention of experts from the Spirit Hall on the front lines, the two sides were locked in a stalemate.

Meanwhile, the experts on the Spirit Hall side received orders not to actively kill the experts on the Star Luo side, resulting in a stalemate between the two sides.

“The cohesion of Xingluo is obviously higher than that of Tiandou, and their military strength is also higher than that of Xingluo Empire. Now that they cannot break through on the front line, they will definitely resort to surprise tactics.”

"If it were me..."

Gu Han's gaze turned to the corridor on the east side of the Star Dou Great Forest, at the junction of Tian Dou and Xing Luo.

"There are no passes or barriers here. The road leads out of the western mountains, and the eastern corridor is flat and mud-free. Once we cross here, we can directly enter the plains east of Tiandou. If we ride at full speed, we can probably reach the foot of Tiandou City in less than half a month."

Although Gu Han found the military strategies of this world somewhat childish, he would not underestimate the enemy because of that. If any of the enemy had a sudden lapse in judgment and thought of leaving through here, then Tian Dou City would be in danger.

"Forget it, tell Tian Dou to be on guard."
