Qian Renxue Captured, Snake Lance Douluo Killed in Battle! Bibi Dong Shocked: Impossible! Absolutely Impossible!
Spirit City, Pope's Palace.
The blood-covered Porcupinefish Douluo knelt before the Pope and recounted the course of the battle.
The more Bibi Dong listened, the more stunned she became. In the end, she even rose to her feet!
The Jeweled Scepter smashed fiercely against the floor, producing a crisp clash!
"You're saying that the two of you Titled Douluo failed to defeat a single opponent, and Qian Renxue was even captured?"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Bibi Dong burst out laughing.
Her ample chest heaved continuously from her overwhelming agitation.
Spirit Hall had long since infiltrated the Tian Dou Empire on every front.
In her eyes, Qian Renxue's campaign this time had been foolproof as well.
How could Snake Lance Douluo possibly have died?
Before long, another Spirit Hall spy came to report.
His report matched what Porcupinefish Douluo had said!
Bibi Dong's vision went black, and she nearly collapsed!
She was worried not only about Qian Renxue's safety.
She was even more concerned that their plan to control the Tian Dou Empire had failed!
Qian Renxue was the most important piece Spirit Hall had placed within the Tian Dou Empire!
Years of painstaking planning had actually been ruined in a single stroke!
That was why Qian Renxue's mishap enraged her so greatly!
"Damn it! We secretly investigated every powerful Soul Master in the Tian Dou Empire. When did a Titled Douluo like this emerge?"
"Xue Luochuan had been under our surveillance all along. What exactly is going on?"
Bibi Dong was utterly baffled.
That was why she had sent people to stop the Xing Luo Empire from stirring up trouble.
Yet Snake Lance Douluo had died, and Qian Renxue had been captured.
Such an outcome was completely beyond her expectations!
"Your Holiness, the Young Master is in grave danger. We need to rescue her as soon as possible!"
Porcupinefish Douluo pleaded through tears.
"She will be rescued, but we won't need to act."
Bibi Dong waved her hand and sat down again.
"The Tian Dou Empire has already mobilized troops to rescue her, and the commander this time is the clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
"They will probably rescue Qian Renxue very soon. Let us not make a big show of it for now, or it will arouse the Tian Dou Empire's suspicions."
The Tian Dou Empire was suppressing a rebellion. If Spirit Hall joined in, it would instead provoke the Tian Dou Empire's resentment.
Though the Chang'an Empire had some ability.
Wanting to contend against the Tian Dou Empire was still nothing more than wishful thinking!
The Tian Dou Empire had an army of a million soldiers!
On one side of the Pope's Palace stood the Elder Hall, while on the other was the most mysterious and noble Worship Hall.
Within it resided Spirit Hall's highest combat power and ultimate decision-makers.
The Seven Worships!
Every Worship possessed strength at or above that of a Level 96 Super Douluo!
Upon the holy Angel Throne, which radiated golden light.
Great Enshrined Qian Daoliu sat with his hands clasped, the backs of his hands supporting his chin. His gaze was fixed on the Soul Master reporting the news, and his expression was so gloomy it seemed water could drip from it.
No one could be happy upon hearing that his granddaughter had been captured alive.
Though he was already one hundred and fifty years old.
He looked only thirty or forty, and his features remained exceedingly handsome.
He was tall but not particularly muscular. He wore a simple gray robe, and his golden hair fell loose behind his back, neatly groomed.
Although his attire was so plain, merely standing there gave others the urge to prostrate themselves before him.
Because his cultivation level was Level 99, a Limit Douluo!
The highest Soul Power level a Soul Master could attain!
One step further, and he would become a god!
"Xue Luochuan, that little bastard, dared lay a hand on my precious granddaughter?"
Icy killing intent radiated from Qian Daoliu's sharp eyes.
A young man whose name he had once not even bothered to remember.
Had now captured his most beloved granddaughter!
Ferocious killing intent spread through the air.
The few people in the hall instantly felt as though they had fallen into an icy abyss!
At the foremost seat among the Worships beside him.
An elderly man in golden robes embroidered with silver, his beard and hair both snow-white, spoke up to ask:
"Big Brother, do we need to rescue the Young Master?"
The old man wore golden armor. His face was weathered, with several strange patterns etched upon it.
Though he was older than Qian Daoliu, his strength was somewhat inferior.
Spirit Hall's Second Worship, the Level 98 Super Douluo, Golden Crocodile Douluo!
"There's no need. Bibi Dong will handle this properly. If she cannot even handle this, what right does she have to be Pope?"
Qian Daoliu withdrew his killing intent and shook his head.
He still acknowledged Bibi Dong's capabilities.
And unless Spirit Hall faced a catastrophe that threatened its very existence.
The Worships generally would not reveal themselves lightly.
"What if the Pope's rescue attempt fails?" Golden Crocodile Douluo asked after some thought.
"She will not fail. No matter how formidable Xue Luochuan is, he has only one insignificant Titled Douluo under his command. What does he have to contend against Spirit Hall and the Tian Dou Empire?"
Qian Daoliu closed his eyes.
When he opened them again, all killing intent had vanished.
It had been replaced by tranquility and calm.
Only because something had happened to Qian Renxue.
Had he become anxious and lost his composure just now.
A minor figure like Xue Luochuan could not stir even the slightest emotion in him.
"Qian Renxue will definitely be fine."
"If anything happens to her, I will personally act and slaughter every last person in Chang'an."
"Xue Luochuan and that mysterious Titled Douluo, what was his name, Li Xin—I will use their blood to offer sacrifice to the Angel God."
His tone was calm, as if he were describing something utterly ordinary.
Yet every word was filled with ruthlessness enough to make one tremble in fear!
Golden Crocodile Douluo said no more.
After this battle, the Chang'an Empire had become renowned across the continent.
But at the same time, every detail of the Chang'an Empire had been thoroughly investigated by all the major factions!
Xue Luochuan had only a single Titled Douluo stationed under his command.
Across several cities, he had no more than ten thousand soldiers in total.
At most, his strength was comparable to that of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
There was nothing to fear.
The Tian Dou Empire had suffered only because it had not paid attention to this Titled Douluo before.
This time, they would absolutely be able to wipe him out with ease!
Qian Renxue was still the crown prince of the Tian Dou Empire.
Everything remained under Spirit Hall's control.
After the Chang'an Empire had routed the Tian Dou Empire's army of thirty thousand and captured Xue Qinghe alive.
It swiftly dispatched troops to occupy the five nearest cities.
The Chang'an Empire now had the beginnings of a small nation.
It was no longer a solitary city standing alone as before.
The empire seemed to have a bright future ahead.
Yet the Tian Dou Empire's suppression had not ended there.
Xue Ye's order soon spread across the continent.
Yu Yuanzhen was appointed commander, leading the heads of the Four Element Academies and two hundred thousand Heavenly Dou Army soldiers in another attack!
When the people of the Chang'an Empire heard that Yu Yuanzhen, the leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan of the Upper Three Sects, was personally coming, panic immediately spread among them!
"We're finished. The Tian Dou Empire is serious this time—they actually brought in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan of the Upper Three Sects!"
"Yu Yuanzhen, the clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, is a Level 95 Titled Douluo!"
"His martial soul, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, is a top-tier beast martial soul!"
"And there are four Soul Douluo as well!"
"Only General Li Xin can fight on our side. We can't possibly stop them!"
"The Chang'an Empire was just established. We shouldn't have rushed to expand. Now we've drawn the Tian Dou Empire's Wrath of Thunder, with the Five Route Army advancing together. What are we supposed to do?"
"Why don't we surrender back to them? Surrendering to anyone is still surrendering!"
The people in several cities were all gripped by panic.
With no one stationed to guard several of the newly conquered cities, many people were already plotting to defect back.
