The System Gave Far Too Much!
A faint smile suddenly appeared on Bibi Dong's frost-covered face.
The hearts of everyone below tightened at once.
Why had she suddenly smiled?
Had the sun risen in the west today?
At the sight of that smile, an inexplicable dread gradually rose in their hearts.
They knew Bibi Dong well.
This woman could go ten days or half a month without smiling once, wearing a stern expression all day long.
She was even exceptionally strict with her own disciple, Hu Liena.
Yet today, the woman had suddenly smiled, and everyone couldn't help suspecting that something bad was coming.
For the past few years, Bibi Dong had been steadily strengthening her own authority.
Everyone agreed on that.
In the past, many matters had been decided jointly by the people of the Elder Hall and the Worship Hall.
But today.
At this monthly assembly.
Bibi Dong had given her own answers to the issues Spirit Hall had recently encountered.
And.
Judging by the look of her.
She apparently wouldn't allow any objections from those below her.
This was a textbook attempt to weaken the authority of worshippers and elders like them!
Coupled with the wicked smile Bibi Dong now wore.
Everyone couldn't help wondering.
Had Bibi Dong come up with some new trick to further weaken the little authority they still held?
They didn't have much authority to begin with. If it were weakened any further, they might soon be unable to pay even the servants they employed at home!
Everyone below lowered their heads slightly, bitter expressions appearing on their faces.
They had only one thought at that moment.
Let's end this meeting already!
On the throne.
A foxlike glint of cunning in her eyes, Bibi Dong looked at the people below.
Then her alluring scarlet lips parted slightly:
"Qian Daoliu, tell me, what do you think of the solutions I just gave to those problems?"
At the very front of the crowd below.
Qian Daoliu, who had been called upon, felt a pang of bitterness.
Why call on me?
How would I dare have an opinion?
If I dared have an opinion, wouldn't you be displeased again?
Though those were his thoughts.
Qian Daoliu maintained a solemn, serious expression:
"I also believe what His Holiness the Pope just said was entirely reasonable."
"The solutions you gave were all perfectly suited to the problems and expressed what we all had in mind. I have no better suggestions."
Bibi Dong nodded at Qian Daoliu's words.
Below the platform.
Seeing Bibi Dong nod, Qian Daoliu breathed a sigh of relief.
I finally managed to fool her!
Just then.
A voice only Bibi Dong could hear rang out beside her ear again.
Damn, Qian Daoliu really is worthy of being the Worship Hall's top dog!
He can actually kiss up with a perfectly serious face. I admire him from the bottom of my heart; I'm utterly convinced!
Bibi Dong frowned, but then relaxed, her brow smoothing out.
Now.
She had ruled Qian Daoliu out.
The voice belonged to someone else!
At that thought.
Bibi Dong couldn't help turning her gaze to the person standing to Qian Daoliu's right, the second worshipper, Golden Crocodile Douluo.
"Elder Golden Crocodile, do you have any different suggestions?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo's expression stiffened at the question.
Then he stole a glance at Qian Daoliu beside him.
Qian Daoliu was the top dog of the Worship Hall, so naturally he had to listen to Qian Daoliu.
However.
Qian Daoliu shook his head so slightly it was barely noticeable.
Seeing Qian Daoliu's expression, Golden Crocodile Douluo immediately understood.
Then he cupped his hands and said:
"His Holiness the Pope's wisdom is unmatched. You have already thought of everything I could think of, so I cannot come up with any other suggestions."
And at that moment.
Among the people standing below.
In the last row, in the furthest corner, a fairly handsome man whose presence was the least noticeable wore a miserable expression.
Watching Bibi Dong question a third person, Li Mubai couldn't help growing somewhat impatient.
What is this?
A third one?
Is this woman going to question everyone here one by one?
This stupid woman, did her brain grow entirely into her chest? Is that why she's so big-chested and brainless?
What's the point of asking the same question?
Would anyone dare say something that would cost them their head?
I'm really so Q!
It's already noon. I want to go home and eat!
The demure maid at home is still waiting for me to return and have a candlelit lunch with her.
Li Mubai complained inwardly.
If it weren't for the system's rewards.
He, Li Mubai, wouldn't have come to Spirit Hall to be its tenth elder even if he starved to death!
That's right.
Li Mubai had not originally belonged to Spirit Hall.
An accident had caused him to transmigrate to this Douluo World.
He had then become a baby in a slum.
At six, he had awakened his Martial Soul and shown exceptional talent.
He was only twenty-seven this year, yet he had already attained the rank of Titled Douluo.
But just then.
His Sign-In System had awakened.
However.
The system only allowed him to sign in once a month, and the sign-in location could only be inside the Pope's Hall.
Moreover, the time it gave him to sign in.
Happened to coincide with Spirit Hall's monthly meeting of its upper ranks.
As a result, Li Mubai had to attend the meeting.
He could actually have slacked off at home and chosen not to come.
But he had no choice.
The system gave far too much!!!
No matter how indifferent Li Mubai was to fame and fortune, he couldn't help being tempted by the sign-in reward.
This was his first time signing in.
The reward the system offered was actually a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring!
A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring.
That wasn't some common cabbage!
Even Bibi Dong, the Pope, didn't have two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings.
Therefore.
No matter how proud and unyielding he, Li Mubai, was, he couldn't resist this temptation.
And so.
He came.
