Ghost Leopard Douluo Finally "Caught"

Early the next morning, on the main street of Spirit City.

Ghost Leopard Douluo was humming a little tune, strolling about in boredom.

Thinking back on yesterday's terrifying scene, he still felt a lingering sense of fear.

However, he figured that Chrysanthemum Douluo had just been acting on impulse and wouldn't come looking for trouble again today.

Yet, no sooner had this thought flashed through his mind than he froze, his pupils constricting violently.

Not far ahead, two familiar figures were walking side by side, heading straight toward him.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo!

Ghost Leopard Douluo's heart skipped a beat.

Something was wrong!

Even from a distance, he could clearly sense that the soul power aura radiating from the pair was more than a notch stronger than it had been yesterday!

That pressure was as deep as the sea, making even him, a level 94 Title Douluo, feel a sense of trepidation!

Those two shameless lovebirds... had they actually both broken through?!

Ghost Leopard Douluo had no way of knowing that Chrysanthemum and Ghost had both stepped over the threshold into level 96, thanks to the immortal herbs and soul bones they had obtained at Maple Dye Pavilion the night before.

Before he could think it through, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo had already spotted him.

The two exchanged a glance, and a matching look of delight appeared on their flamboyant and gloomy faces!

That look was exactly like a hunter seeing prey deliver itself to their doorstep.

Another fresh leek!

To Ghost Leopard Douluo, however, that look of delight instantly turned into sheer terror.

Holy crap!

Ghost Leopard Douluo's scalp tingled!

This Chrysanthemum Douluo was truly a petty bastard!

A whole day had passed! Not only was he still angry, but he'd even brought his old flame along to ambush him?!

They had even pulled an all-nighter to break through just to beat him up?!

Was it really necessary?!

No way!

Of the thirty-six stratagems, running away is the best!

And so, a truly absurd scene unfolded on the streets of Spirit City.

"Yo~ Ghost Leopard..."

Chrysanthemum Douluo had just raised his signature orchid finger, and only three words of his greeting had left his lips.

Across from him, Ghost Leopard Douluo's figure flickered, instantly turning into a black afterimage as he turned tail and bolted!

He was moving even faster than he had when he'd seen a ghost yesterday!

The smile on Chrysanthemum Douluo's face froze instantly.

The next second, that flamboyant face turned so dark it looked like it could drip water.

"That son of a—!"

Beside him, Ghost Douluo glanced at Ghost Leopard Douluo's fleeing back and asked calmly, "Shall we chase?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo gritted his teeth, his voice squeezed out from between them.

"Chase!"

"Even if we have to break his legs today, we must drag him to the senior's restaurant!"

Before the words had even faded, the two figures had already vanished from the spot!

Having broken through to level 96, their strength was no longer what it used to be.

Furthermore, Ghost Douluo was an expert in agility and stealth; catching a Ghost Leopard who was solely focused on fleeing through Spirit City was as easy as pie.

It didn't take long.

"Let me go! You two lunatics!"

"I was wrong! Can't I just admit I was wrong?!"

Ghost Leopard Douluo was being held by the arms on either side by Chrysanthemum and Ghost, his limbs flailing wildly, but he couldn't break free from their iron-like grip, looking for all the world like a captured stray cat.

The three were heading in the direction of Maple Dye Pavilion.

On the way, they happened to run into another figure rushing along in a flurry.

The person arriving was none other than Spirit Kite Douluo.

Only, she was dragging along a "pig's head" whose face was bruised and swollen, eyes blackened, and whose eyebrows had been burned away entirely.

Seeing Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, the pig-headed man subconsciously tried to squeeze out a flattering smile, only to pull at his wounds and wince in agony.

That pig-headed man...

Pah!

Wasn't that guy Yan?

Seeing the three of them, Spirit Kite Douluo was no longer in a hurry to reach her destination; instead, she walked alongside them with a beaming smile.

She glanced at Ghost Leopard Douluo, who was being carried and looked utterly hopeless, and a look of genuine, heartfelt gratitude appeared on her face.

"Ghost Leopard, come to think of it, I really must thank you."

"If you hadn't run so fast yesterday, causing Yue Guan to bump into me, I truly wouldn't have known that a divine place like Maple Dye Pavilion existed in this world."

"And I certainly wouldn't have received that supreme opportunity bestowed by the senior."

Spirit Kite Douluo's voice was filled with joy and sincerity.

However, these words fell upon Ghost Leopard Douluo's ears and caused his already chaotic brain to shut down completely.

What the hell?

An opportunity?

Was this woman, Spirit Kite Douluo, also beaten by that madman Chrysanthemum Douluo yesterday? And beaten so badly that her brain was turned to mush?

But the moment this thought arose, Ghost Leopard Douluo extinguished it himself.

No!

He stared fixedly at Spirit Kite Douluo, his heart pounding uncontrollably.

Even though her soul power level was one rank lower than his own, the aura currently radiating from her made him, a level ninety-four Title Douluo, feel a terror that originated from the depths of his soul!

It was as if the person before him was no longer a colleague from Spirit Hall, but an ancient, man-eating beast capable of burning mountains and boiling seas!

What the hell was going on?!

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo paid no mind to Ghost Leopard Douluo's crashed brain, instead looking at Spirit Kite Douluo with great interest.

Chrysanthemum Douluo flicked his orchid finger and asked with a smile.

"Spirit Kite, how much are you planning to eat today?"

Hearing this, the corners of Spirit Kite Douluo's mouth curled into a satisfied arc.

Her phoenix eyes, burning with golden divine flames, were full of delight.

"Last night, this Elder personally took the field and spent the whole night 'instructing' my newly accepted precious disciple."

She extended her slender hand and patted her flat, toned abdomen with feigned casualness, her smile deepening.

"I'm already famished."

"Today, I must order one more dish than yesterday!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the gazes of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo subconsciously fell upon the nearly unrecognizable "pig-head" behind Spirit Kite.

The two exchanged a look, their lips twitching violently at the same time.

"Instructing"?

Was this "instructing" for an entire night, or was it a one-sided beating for an entire night?!

The sympathy in their eyes as they looked at Yan was practically overflowing.

Just then, a figure as sturdy as a mountain ran past them with a dull, rhythmic thudding sound.

That figure was none other than Demon Bear Douluo!

Ghost Leopard Douluo's eyes, which had already been filled with despair, instantly erupted with a glimmer of hope!

"Old Bear! Demon Bear! Save me!"

His voice was incredibly shrill, filled with endless grievance and desperation.

The sturdy figure paused at the sound and slowly turned his head.

When Demon Bear Douluo's gaze landed on the carried Ghost Leopard Douluo, his rugged face showed not a shred of shared indignation, but rather...

A mysterious, complex expression mixed with pity and gratification.

Ghost Leopard Douluo's heart sank into an bottomless abyss.

This look... it wasn't right!

Demon Bear Douluo didn't make a move; instead, he gave Chrysanthemum and Ghost a knowing smile.

"Yo, you finally caught this slippery leopard?"

Hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo flicked his orchid finger and complained indignantly.

"Don't even mention it. This stubborn mule acts like he's seen a ghost whenever he sees us."

"If we hadn't reacted quickly today, I'm afraid this heaven-sent opportunity would have slipped through his fingers again!"

Hearing their conversation, only two words remained in Ghost Leopard Douluo's brain.

It's over!
