The God's Son Wants to Strip the Pope of Her Power? The Truth Comes to Light
"What did you say?"
Bibi Dong's face darkened.
As Pope, she was being scolded like this by a little brat?
And he had even called her love-brained?
It was an utter disgrace!
Qian Daoliu looked thoughtful.
He knew a thing or two about Bibi Dong.
He also knew that his son had actually been killed by her.
He had been furious at the time, but his son had been the one in the wrong first, and Bibi Dong already had a daughter.
So he could only redirect his hatred toward the Clear Sky Sect.
He also knew full well that the person Bibi Dong loved was Yu Xiaogang.
But why had the God Child called Yu Xiaogang an old scumbag?
From every indication, Yu Xiaogang's feelings for Bibi Dong had been genuine. He would never have thought of betraying her.
When Yu Xiaogang was driven out of Spirit City, Qian Daoliu had even felt that he owed him an apology.
So what was going on?
"God Child, I don't want to say much about my private affairs."
Bibi Dong's face was dark. She truly did not want to think about what had happened all those years ago.
Every time she did, her heart throbbed with pain.
She could have had a beautiful romance and been with the man she loved.
But what had happened in the end?
Qian Xunji had ruined it!
Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo exchanged a glance and chose to remain silent.
The God Child held the highest status. Now that he was questioning her, they, as elders, could only watch. They did not dare interrupt.
The other worshippers, however, found it interesting.
Pope Hall and the Worship Hall had been at odds for years.
Seeing Bibi Dong suffer a setback seemed quite entertaining.
Chu Xuan laughed. "If it were only your private affair, I naturally wouldn't interfere."
"But your private affairs will affect Spirit Hall, even its survival. As the God Child, I naturally have to intervene."
"Bibi Dong, do you really think Yu Xiaogang is any good?"
"Since you're the Pope now, let me give you a word of advice. Either set your mind straight or resign as Pope."
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
Good grief, did he mean to strip the Pope of her power?
Even the Worship Hall would never have dared dream of such a thing.
Bibi Dong was indeed highly capable.
After becoming Pope, she had secured her footing with thunderous measures.
By now, she was essentially able to stand on equal footing with the Worship Hall.
So the Worship Hall wanted to strip her of her power?
It simply could not be done.
But the God Child wanted to do just that the moment he arrived. What could they, as worshippers, do?
Support him, of course!
Qian Daoliu silently walked behind Chu Xuan, making his position clear.
The gods had been very clear: they had to fulfill every request and every command unconditionally.
They were true gods, great beings who could easily wipe them all out.
With Qian Daoliu having made his stance clear, the other worshippers naturally followed him behind Chu Xuan.
The sight made Bibi Dong grit her teeth in hatred.
Did he really think he could do whatever he wanted just because he had become the God Child?
She had spent years painstakingly building her position in Spirit Hall. She was no pushover.
"I don't understand what you're saying, God Child. I won't accept baseless speculation."
As she spoke, she straightened up. She looked ready to break rather than bend, possessing the bearing of an empress of her generation.
Chu Xuan chuckled. Just as he was about to put her in her place, the system notification sounded again.
[Ding! God-Level Choice triggered. Please choose one option!] [Option one: improve relations with Bibi Dong. Reward: one Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, which may be given to another person!] [Option two: expose Yu Xiaogang's true colors. Reward: Wheel of Time!] [Option three: angrily rebuke Bibi Dong and expose her plan. Reward: a five-thousand-year torso bone!]
The three choices appeared.
The first choice seemed pretty tempting. The Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring could even be given to someone else.
He could use it to build connections and improve relationships.
But he himself was the strongest connection anyone could have now. Others should be the ones coming to curry favor with him.
Why would he need to curry favor with anyone else?
The third choice offered only a five-thousand-year torso bone as its reward. It was pathetically weak.
The Wheel of Time in the second choice, however, gave him quite a shock after he read its description.
The Wheel of Time was the God of Time's origin divine artifact.
By turning the Wheel of Time, one could learn about the past, present, and future.
It could be turned once a month!
Moreover, the Wheel of Time contained the God of Time's origin. After absorbing it, one could inherit the God of Time's divine position in the future.
Inheriting the God of Time's divine position was not the most important thing.
The most important thing was his Martial Soul, Myriad Origin.
Myriad Origin could absorb the God of Time's origin.
After absorbing it, Myriad Origin would possess the origin of time.
When he became a god in the future, he would also possess the power of time.
What a bargain! Too much of a bargain!
Even a fool would know what to choose. God-Level Choice was simply amazing.
"Option two!"
Having made his choice, the next thing he had to do was expose Yu Xiaogang's true colors.
For him, a transmigrator, it was an easy task.
The choice said to expose Yu Xiaogang, not prove the case.
In other words, he only had to say what kind of person Yu Xiaogang was. He did not need anyone else to believe him.
Then it was time to begin!
He looked down at Bibi Dong, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
That look filled Bibi Dong with a powerful sense of unease, as though something bad was about to happen.
He was clearly only a boy of eleven or twelve. How could he make her feel this way?
"Baseless speculation? Very well. Since everyone's here, let's talk today about what kind of person Yu Xiaogang really is."
"I'm sure that after hearing this, everyone will have a detailed understanding of that old scumbag."
"Yu Xiaogang, the former young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Because of his Martial Soul Mutation, his Soul Power could not break through to rank thirty."
"To solve the problem of his Martial Soul Mutation, he came to Spirit City..."
Drawing on his memories, Chu Xuan promptly told them about Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang had come to Spirit City for the materials in the central library, hoping to find a way to resolve his Mutated Martial Soul.
To that end, he had even enrolled in Spirit Hall Academy.
However, he could only access the library's first three floors.
Only Spirit Hall's upper echelons could enter the floors above.
Yu Xiaogang refused to accept it, convinced that the materials inside could help him.
So he tried every possible way to get in.
By chance, he learned of Bibi Dong, who was the holy maiden at the time.
To get close to Bibi Dong, he arranged countless chance encounters and staged scenarios like a hero saving a beauty. In the end, he won her heart.
Because Bibi Dong liked Yu Xiaogang, she granted all his requests and took him to the fourth and fifth floors.
After reading the materials on those floors, he still found nothing useful.
So he chose to leave and look for opportunities elsewhere.
As for his feelings for Bibi Dong?
Why care about something that had never existed in the first place?
Qian Xunji noticed this at the time, so he moved against Yu Xiaogang.
In the end, Yu Xiaogang left Spirit City.
Of course, he also fashioned himself into a tragic lover and presented himself as the victim.
Bibi Dong knew nothing of this and had been kept in the dark the whole time.
She had always believed that she had dragged Yu Xiaogang down, and had been burdened with guilt ever since.
"So, Bibi Dong, that white moonlight in your heart—is his heart red or black?"
"That good-for-nothing old scumbag used the central library's materials to put together the so-called Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul. Did he ever consider your position?"
"When he asked you to take him to the fourth and fifth floors, did he ever think he might harm you by doing so?"
