Chapter 118: Xiao Mo and Xiao Xue
"Weiss, did you say you're going to Heaven Dou City?"
Dai Pojun frowned. Heaven Dou City was the main city of the Heaven Dou Empire.
If ordinary citizens from the Star Luo Empire visited the Heaven Dou Empire, that would be fine. But Dai Weis was the prince of the Star Luo Empire—if he went there recklessly, something could easily go wrong.
"Yes, Father!" Dai Weis nodded slightly, then explained, "According to the intelligence provided by Senior Yang, the son of Clear Sky Douluo has appeared in Heaven Dou City, and Mu Bai has become his classmate. They are known as the Shrek Six Monsters..."
The moment he said this, Dai Pojun's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "Clear Sky Douluo?!"
His shock was understandable. Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Douluo, was the youngest Titled Douluo in history—a peerless expert!
Wielding the unmatched Clear Sky Hammer, he represented the pride of the Clear Sky Sect!
In Tang Hao's hands, the Clear Sky Hammer was practically invincible. Even the previous Pope of the Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji, had died tragically as a result of Tang Hao's actions.
Although Tang Hao hadn't delivered the final blow, in the eyes of the people of Douluo Continent, Tang Hao was the one who killed Qian Xunji.
Such a powerful soul master—every move he made could shake the structure of the entire continent!
"It's been more than ten years... I never expected Clear Sky Douluo to reappear in the soul master world." Dai Pojun sighed with emotion. As an offense-type Titled Douluo himself, who didn't want to possess the earth-shattering power of Tang Hao?
"Weiss, is this information accurate?"
"Father, this came directly from Senior Yang—it's definitely reliable."
"I didn't expect that Mu Bai, that kid, would become friends with Clear Sky Douluo's son. That's quite a stroke of luck for him..."
"Father, I plan to meet Clear Sky Douluo's son, and then lure out Tang Hao, so I can find the specific location of the Clear Sky Sect."
Dai Weis laid out his plan. He didn't intend to approach Tang San directly, nor Tang Hao, since neither of them were the kind of people who could be manipulated. On top of that, he held personal grudges—Tang Hao had stolen his mother and humiliated his father. Trying to win them over would be suicidal.
Instead of wasting time on them, it would be better to go after the five elders of the Clear Sky Sect.
As the emperor of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Pojun was no fool. He instantly saw through Dai Weis's intentions and asked seriously, "Weiss, you intend to win over the Clear Sky Sect?"
"Exactly. Before the Clear Sky Sect went into seclusion, they had tacitly supported us. If we can win them over again, we'll have far more leverage when confronting the Spirit Hall in the future!
Aside from the Clear Sky Sect, I also want to try approaching the Seven Treasure Glazed Tiles Sect. If both of these sects join our alliance, we won't have to fear the Spirit Hall at all."
Dai Pojun wasn't too optimistic about getting the Seven Treasure Glazed Tiles Sect on their side. Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader, wasn't an easy man to deal with. However, if they could win over the Clear Sky Sect, he'd still be pleased.
Especially now, after years of seclusion, the Clear Sky Sect—with their pride and ambition—must be itching to reestablish themselves as the number one sect on the continent.
The only thing holding them back was fear of the Spirit Hall. But with the support of the Star Luo Empire, they might finally break their silence and rise again.
"Alright, Weiss. Since you've made your decision, give it a try. But remember—you are the Crown Prince. We've already offended the Spirit Hall before. You must be cautious on this trip."
"Don't worry, Father. I've made all the arrangements. I'll bring Uncle Li and Dean Lin with me."
Dai Weis smiled. After over half a year of cultivation, Li Hu had broken through level 80. With the addition of his eighth spirit ring, he had reached Spirit Douluo rank at level 81, with significantly enhanced strength.
Lin Qiuyang had broken through to level 88, making him second only to Emperor Dai Pojun himself in the entire Star Luo Empire.
Dai Pojun even believed that Lin Qiuyang had the potential to become the fourth Titled Douluo of the empire.
"That's not enough. If the Spirit Hall sends someone to ambush you, those two alone might not be enough. I'll assign two more people to accompany you."
With that, Dai Pojun turned to two palace maids beside him and instructed: "Xiao Mo, Xiao Xue—you've been by my side for many years. I'm sending you to accompany Weiss and ensure his safety. If there's no danger, consider it a vacation and enjoy yourselves."
"Yes, Your Majesty. We swear to protect His Highness's safety."
The two young women bowed respectfully in unison.
Dai Weis frowned slightly and glanced at them. Xiao Mo and Xiao Xue were twin sisters, named Chen Mo and Chen Xue respectively. As far as he knew, both were auxiliary-type spirit masters with no real combat strength.
If a fight really broke out—who would protect whom?
Sensing his confusion, Dai Pojun smiled knowingly and said, "Hahaha, Weiss, don't underestimate Xiao Mo and Xiao Xue. Do you know what their spirits are?"
"What are they?" Dai Weis asked curiously. There were too many maids in the palace for him to keep track of them all.
"Let me introduce them. Xiao Xue's martial spirit is the Light Crystal—an auxiliary-type spirit that can enhance all attributes of a soul master by a percentage.
It's somewhat similar to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tiles Pagoda, though its amplification isn't quite as strong. But compared to the Pagoda, the Light Crystal has a major advantage—it can stack its effects infinitely."
"Oh?"
Dai Weis was surprised. The Pagoda's buffs could not be stacked—its soul skills could only enhance a soul master's attributes by up to 80%. After that, no matter how many buffs were used, the increase would cap out.
If those boosts could stack, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tiles Sect could theoretically produce a god through sheer support skills.
The Light Crystal's individual boosts weren't as powerful, but they could be stacked. So with enough Light Crystal users, one could forge a god of war.
Unfortunately, Light Crystal spirit masters were extremely rare. Chen Xue was the only one in the entire palace.
Dai Weis nodded slightly. Chen Xue's spirit was certainly impressive—but what about Chen Mo?
Dai Pojun continued, "As for Xiao Mo, her martial spirit is the Fallen Crystal—a mutated form of the Light Crystal.
Unlike the Light Crystal, the Fallen Crystal doesn't boost allies—it inflicts negative states on enemies. It can proportionally weaken all attributes of its targets."
"It can impose debuffs and reduce enemy combat power?" Dai Weis was stunned. He looked closely at Chen Mo and Chen Xue again. Their martial spirits were seriously incredible!
If they weren't already over 25 years old, he would've recruited them into the Star Luo Royal Team without hesitation.
Not only were their martial spirits rare and powerful, their spirit power cultivation was impressive too—both were level 50 auxiliary-type Soul Kings.
While level 50 might not seem high at first glance, it was already a top-tier level for auxiliary masters on the continent. After all, there were even some so-called "masters" past 40 who were still stuck at level 29...
