Ghost Douluo had remained hidden for a long time, but he had not been idle.
Through the soul power fluctuations transmitted by the black crows, he had determined the direction of the mastermind.
Without betraying anything, he sent Qin Yuan a voice transmission, informing him of the mastermind's approximate location.
In his eyes, Qin Yuan was an expert on Spirit Hall's side and would naturally work for Spirit Hall.
Dugu Bo's appearance would only interfere with Spirit Hall's efforts to win Ye Tianxin over. They had to be separated.
"Little brother, go find Old Ye first. I'll hold him off," Dugu Bo likewise reminded him through a voice transmission.
Both sides considered Qin Yuan their ally. For Qin Yuan, choosing either camp was difficult.
But compared with Spirit Hall's scheming and deceit, he preferred the carefree ease of spending time with Dugu Bo.
Qin Yuan made his decision. After handing the Hundred Treasures Pouch to Ghost Douluo, he immediately rushed toward the mastermind's location.
Meanwhile, outside Dragon-Locking City, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Bone Douluo crossed paths.
"It seems the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect still hasn't given up." Chrysanthemum Douluo's smile was soft and effeminate, but his strength was more than enough to keep Bone Douluo from shaking him off.
"Chrysanthemum Guan, Spirit Hall really does haunt us like a restless ghost. What do you intend to do now? Shall we fight, or wait here for Ye Tianxin's final decision?" Bone Douluo folded his arms across his chest. He was irritated, but there was nothing he could do.
Chrysanthemum Douluo had worked alongside Ghost Douluo for years and naturally trusted his investigative abilities. Thus, he was in no hurry.
"If you want a fight, Bone Douluo, I'll gladly oblige. If not, I'm equally happy to stay and trade tall tales."
