Yue Guan and Gui Mei emerged from the Papal Hall together.
It was noon, and the sunlight was blazing.
Gui Mei walked over to stand in the shade, having already guessed what Yue Guan intended to do next.
"You're planning to find that child yourself ahead of time?"
Gui Mei did not support Yue Guan doing this.
The two had known each other for many years. Even if Yue Guan so much as farted, Gui Mei would know what he planned to do next.
"Old Ghost, she's a plant-type Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power. You have no idea how great a temptation that is to me."
Yue Guan's eyes gleamed. Right now, all he wanted was to meet that child.
If possible, he wanted to take that child as his disciple.
"His Holiness the Pope has taken an interest in her. I suspect His Holiness intends to take that child as a disciple."
In other words, Yue Guan had no chance.
"That may be true, but things like this have to be fought for. Old Ghost, after working diligently for so many years, can't I even take a disciple according to my own wishes?"

After all, Bibi Dong would not start a fight with them just to compete for a disciple.
"Are you going alone, or shall I go with you?"
Gui Mei asked.
"I'll go by myself. Stay here in case His Holiness the Pope needs us
