"Two Elders, aren't we going to Ning Clan Castle?" Hu Liena asked, somewhat confused, seeing that Devil Bear and the other directly led them towards Heaven Dou City.
Devil Bear Douluo answered his own question, "Why go? To ask for trouble?"
"With Dugu Bo and Gu Rong protecting him, if he doesn't want to act, can we force him? We don't know if we'll survive if we fight, but you definitely won't."
"Uh…"
Hu Liena was speechless. It seemed to make sense.
With Dugu Bo there, let alone the few of them, even if Spirit Saint or Spirit Douluo came, it would be a dead end.
Going there really seemed like asking for trouble.
Yan said, "Are we just going to let it go?"
Ghost Leopard Douluo smiled and said, "Little fellow, haste makes waste. This kind of thing needs to be done slowly. Let's go back to Heaven Dou Holy Palace first and then slowly figure out a way."
Yan sighed, as it seemed there was no other way.
As soon as they returned to Heaven Dou Holy Palace, Devil Bear and the other learned from Saras that Snake Lance Douluo had arrived. The two exchanged glances before entering an office.
Snake Lance Douluo looked at the two with a half-smile and said, "Li Qing isn't that easy to kill."
Devil Bear Douluo frowned and asked, "Did the young lady send you?"
Snake Lance said to himself, "To be able to force Ju Gui to defect, it shows how difficult this matter is. Whether you succeed or not, the outcome might not be too good."
Ghost Leopard Douluo said angrily, "What exactly do you want to say?"
Snake Lance Douluo said, "If you want to get rid of Li Qing without being punished by the High Priest, there's only one way: get rid of Dugu Bo as well."
Devil Bear Douluo: "???"

Ghost Leopard Douluo: "???"
Snake Lance Douluo continued, "The reason the High Priest doesn't allow you to act is simply because it's not worth provoking Dugu Bo and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for a useless person like Yu Xiaogang."
"But if Dugu Bo is also taken care of, then there's no problem."
"The reason Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School allied with Dugu Bo isn't because of Li Qing's potential and Dugu Bo's strength? If both of them die, what do you think Ning Fengzhi will do?"
Devil Bear asked, "You want to avenge Porcupinefish?"
Snake Lance nodded and said, "That's right, but this is indeed your best option, because if you don't do this, Li Qing won't fall into your trap at all."
"And if you follow what I say, even if you can't eliminate Dugu Bo, you can still complete your mission."
"If you can even eliminate Dugu Bo, you can avoid accountability from the High Priest, and I can avenge my brother. Everyone benefits."
Devil Bear and the other exchanged glances before looking back at Snake Lance.
Ghost Leopard Douluo asked, "How do you plan to do it?"
Snake Lance looked at Ghost Leopard: "Your speed is fast, so you're responsible for holding back Gu Rong. Old Bear and I will fully deal with Dugu Bo. Li Qing will be left to Saras and the others."
"Four Spirit Douluo are more than enough to deal with a mere Li Qing."
"But before they act, we must lure Dugu Bo and them away, otherwise Dugu Bo could take them out with one move, and we can't afford to lose four Spirit Douluo."
Ghost Leopard said, "You seem to have forgotten Chen Xin."
"We came to Heaven Dou City with such a grand display and even went to Heaven Dou Academy to find Li Qing. Why do you think they won't call Chen Xin over?"
Snake Lance said speechlessly, "You still have the nerve to say that? Who told you to be so careless?"
"I really don't know what you were thinking. Even if you want to kill Li Qing, you don't need to be so obvious, do you? Do you really think Dugu Bo and the others are just decorations?"
Ghost Leopard Douluo: "…"
Devil Bear Douluo said impatiently, "Stop with these hindsight nonsense. Just tell us what to do. If we can't handle Chen Xin, we won't go crazy with you."
"Simple!"
Snake Lance said with a smile, "As long as Chen Xin realizes that the young lady might be in danger, he will naturally bring Chen Xin to guard her."
Devil Bear and the other frowned slightly.
The method was good, but would it arouse Ning Fengzhi's suspicion afterwards? Qian Renxue's mission was much more important than theirs. If something went wrong because of them,
Then they would be in big trouble.
Snake Lance seemed to see their worries and said easily, "Don't worry, I know what's important. I will absolutely not expose the young lady's identity."
Devil Bear said, "Elaborate."
Snake Lance did not hide anything and immediately explained his idea. Devil Bear and the other nodded in agreement, thinking that if that were the case, there would indeed be no problem.
Provided the young lady was willing to cooperate.
"Wait for my notification!"
After finalizing the preliminary plan, Snake Lance left Heaven Dou Holy Palace, sneaked into the imperial palace, found Qian Renxue, and informed her of his plan, blaming it on Devil Bear and the other.
Qian Renxue frowned tightly: "Didn't I tell them to stop the plan? Why are they now targeting Dugu Bo?"
"Sigh!"
Snake Lance sighed, "Because they have no choice. Since they'll be punished whether they do it or not, all they can do is minimize the aftermath."
Qian Renxue fell into deep thought upon hearing this.
To be honest, she was a bit reluctant to let Li Qing go. For such a genius to die like this would be too regrettable.
He should have become her aid.
It was all that crazy woman's fault.
If it weren't for her, Li Qing would probably have become a part of Spirit Hall long ago. She had just managed to build a good relationship with him, but now she was causing trouble again.
Was that useless Yu Xiaogang really so captivating to her?
Now she had two choices: one was to have her grandfather completely dismiss that crazy woman, so Devil Bear and the others wouldn't have to worry about punishment.
The second was to give up on Li Qing.
After much thought, Qian Renxue still chose to give up on Li Qing. After all, even if her relationship with Li Qing was good now, it would be useless. He might not acknowledge her once her identity was restored.
Qian Renxue asked, "Where are Grandpa Qianjun and the others?"
Although Devil Bear's plan was decent, just the three of them wasn't very safe. If Dugu Bo couldn't be eliminated, the consequences would be severe.
And it would also be a waste of a genius like Li Qing.
Snake Lance Douluo said, "A few days ago, they followed Ju Gui out to sea. Their exact location cannot be determined, so it's probably not feasible to ask them for help."
Never mind, three it is.
If they failed and Dugu Bo went mad, then she would ask her grandfather to personally eliminate him. With her grandfather around, there was nothing that couldn't be handled.
Qian Renxue said, "Then proceed with your plan."
"Remember, if Dugu Bo cannot be killed, there's no need to force it. Always prioritize your own safety. I will explain any future troubles for you."
"Yes!"
Snake Lance Douluo felt warmth in his heart after hearing Qian Renxue's words, thinking that if Bibi Dong were as considerate to her subordinates as Qian Renxue, Ju Gui would not have defected.
