Golden Soul Power gathered behind him, forming an angelic manifestation. Then, Qian Daoliu made a summoning gesture with one hand, and a long sword burning with golden Soul Power was also held in his hand.
Due to the worship of the Angel God in the Palace of the Pope, this sharp aura did not spread to the Palace of the Pope.
Not a single brick or tile inside was damaged in the slightest.
However, Bibi Dong, who was directly facing Qian Daoliu's sharpness, was clearly not in a good state at this moment.
"As expected of the Angel God's High Priest. Although there is no possibility of becoming a god and one can only remain at the Limit Douluo realm for their entire life, this power is indeed not to be underestimated.
However... that's all there is to it!"
Because of the Rakshasa God Trial, even though Bibi Dong's Soul Power cultivation had long reached level 99, the strength she could exert at this moment was at most level 98.
To resist Qian Daoliu at full power with such cultivation was no different from a fool's dream.
Moreover, Bibi Dong did not want to give up the Rakshasa God Trial.
Fortunately, Qian Daoliu had spoken too boastfully, giving her a way to break through the situation.
The golden greatsword, piercing the heavens and earth, pressed down. Under the astonished gazes of Ghost Leopard and the others, Bibi Dong did not use her Soul Power to resist. Instead, she charged straight ahead.
"Screech~"
The scorching golden light tore down. In an instant, Bibi Dong's flesh and blood were vaporized on the spot.
"Your Eminence the Pope!" Ghost Leopard exclaimed in surprise.
As for the Bear Demon Douluo, seeing this scene, the corners of his mouth instead curved into a smile.
His previous guess was indeed correct; Bibi Dong was no match for the Great Enshrined.
Since he had already decided to switch allegiances, this made things even more convenient.
"Because of the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking, my current Soul Power cultivation has reached level 96, meeting the minimum standard for entering the Worship Hall. At most, it's just a lack of seniority.
While Bibi Dong was alive, wanting to join the Great Enshrined would inevitably be seen as disloyal.
But now..."
What the Bear Demon Douluo was thinking was self-evident.
The person was already dead, how could they still restrain him?
On the other hand, Chrysanthemum Ghost and Ghost Leopard had originally decided to betray Martial Soul Hall and defect to the rapidly rising Qingyun Sect.
They had already made their plans, but after witnessing Qian Daoliu's combat power with their own eyes, the two generals now felt uneasy.
"With such cultivation, if Qian Daoliu doesn't pursue the matter, then so be it.
But if he does, with Qingyun Sect's strength and that Blue Robe Your Excellency's cultivation, can they truly withstand Qian Daoliu?"
"Alas~ Since things have come to this, it's better to make long-term plans. At worst, we'll just continue to work for Martial Soul Hall as dogs!"
However, as everyone present was lost in their own thoughts, witnessing Bibi Dong's death with their own eyes.
Suddenly, as a stream of dark green Soul Power condensed, it first formed a giant energy cocoon in the air.
With a "crack," as the energy cocoon shattered, Bibi Dong emerged from it before everyone's disbelieving eyes.
Not only was her flesh and blood intact, but even her Pope's ceremonial robe had not a single crease.
It was as if Qian Daoliu's previous attack had never landed on her.
How could this be possible!
Under everyone's astonished gazes, Bibi Dong let out a contemptuous smile.
As a Titled Douluo who had cultivated her Twin Martial Souls to Grand Perfection, her methods were not that simple.
The ninth Soul Skill of her Death Spider Emperor Martial Soul was enough to bring her back from the dead.
Although the conditions for its use were somewhat harsh, it was not difficult to use it to block Qian Daoliu's attack!
After all, in the original Douluo story, this Soul Skill had blocked a halberd strike from the Sea God's phantom!
"Old senior, I concede!"
"Just as you said before, all that has happened previously is now settled!"
Qian Daoliu: "..."
This is bad!
He had spoken too boastfully and was now put in a difficult position.
But then again, she was the Saintess carefully chosen by Martial Soul Hall back then. If she couldn't even withstand one move from him, then Martial Soul Hall's judgment in choosing people would be too poor.
Moreover...
No matter what, Bibi Dong was Qian Renxue's mother.
He could disregard her life or death, but he had to consider Xue'er's feelings.
"Then... this is good!"
Collecting his thoughts, Qian Daoliu casually dispersed the golden longsword in his hand and waved his hand, saying.
"A gentleman's word is his bond, and even four horses can't chase it down!
You killed my son once, and I'll kill you once. That seems fair enough.
From this day forward, neither you nor my Qian family owes the other anything!"
Qian Daoliu's meaning was clear: he was ready to let Bibi Dong go.
It was a pity, though. It was easy to invite a god, but hard to send one away. How could Bibi Dong be someone who would willingly suffer a loss?
"Heh heh, Senior, your words are truly laughable. Your accounts are settled, but mine are far from it!"
"Bibi Dong, what do you want?"
"It's simple. Nominally, I am not only the Pope of Martial Soul Hall, but also Qian Xunji's wife. You can't deny that, can you?
Since that's the case, then when I leave, Qian Xunji's possessions naturally belong to me as well.
Senior, do you acknowledge this or not!"
Bibi Dong was willing to address Qian Daoliu as "Senior" as long as she hadn't gotten what she wanted.
It wasn't that she respected the old and loved the young, or that she truly saw Qian Daoliu as an elder out of respect for Qian Xunji.
It was because the old man across from her was simply too powerful.
Because he was an honest person, as long as Qian Daoliu was put in a position where he had to agree, he naturally would.
But if you pushed an honest man too far...
If Qian Daoliu truly wanted to act, with Bibi Dong's current cultivation, she absolutely wouldn't be able to leave Martial Soul City alive!
"You never said such a thing when my son was alive. Now that he's dead, you suddenly remember you're the Qian family's daughter-in-law.
Fine. If you want it, then take it!
Anyone from my Martial Soul Hall who wishes to follow you, I will not stop them.
I, Qian Daoliu, say this, and I will not cause trouble afterward!"
Martial Soul Hall was a force gathered by the faith in the Angel God.
Qian Daoliu was confident that even though Bibi Dong had been Pope for over a decade, and had promoted many of her confidantes to consolidate her rule.
Her power was at its peak!
But Qian Daoliu also believed that not everyone would be willing to follow her!
Just like now.
Upon hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Bibi Dong signaled with her eyes. She had originally intended to take all her direct forces with her and seek a new path.
Loyal followers like Hu Liena and Ghost Leopard Douluo were indeed reliable. They immediately stepped forward, standing resolutely behind Bibi Dong.
However, what made her frown was.
Those who were fence-sitters, like Bear Demon Douluo and Ghost Leopard, Chrysanthemum Ghost, became indecisive.
"Hmph!" Bibi Dong snorted coldly.
"Truly a group of ungrateful wretches!"
However, in a way, it was a good thing.
Adversity reveals true friendship. Those willing to follow her now were naturally her loyal subordinates, whom she could trust and use boldly in the future.
After some back and forth, with both of them frowning, the group willing to follow Bibi Dong packed their belongings and stood outside the walls of Martial Soul City.
One was surprised by how many people were willing to follow.
The other was surprised by how few confidantes she had after being Pope for so many years.
Several Titled Douluo, Soul Masters with not low Soul Power, and Martial Soul Hall's Golden Generation.
Admittedly, for Martial Soul Hall, this strength was nothing.
As long as Qian Daoliu was present, Martial Soul Hall would always be Martial Soul Hall!
But no matter how much she tried to deceive herself, she couldn't change the truth that Martial Soul Hall had been split!
