Hu Liena did not dare show Chrysanthemum Douluo any attitude and immediately bowed in acknowledgment.
Salas then took Yan and Xie Yue away for treatment, while Hu Liena followed them.
"Elder Ju, may I have a word with you?"
"Alright."
Xiao Chenlong and Chrysanthemum Douluo went to a secluded place. Xiao Chenlong got straight to the point. "Elder Ju, do you think Bibi Dong is a qualified Pope?"
The question left Chrysanthemum Douluo too afraid to answer, and he could only stammer.
"I know you have your concerns, so I'll speak, and you just listen."
Xiao Chenlong's gaze seemed to pierce the distance, looking toward the Pope's Palace in Spirit City.
"My teacher, Great Enshrined Qian Daoliu, had no choice but to make Bibi Dong the Pope.
"The Previous Pope was simply too disappointing, Qian Renxue was still too young, and my teacher himself did not wish to take up the Pope's position again.
"But Bibi Dong harbors hatred toward Spirit Hall. For someone like her to sit in the Pope's seat would bring Spirit Hall nothing but harm."
Cold sweat broke out across Chrysanthemum Douluo's forehead. He truly did not want to hear any of this.
"Your Highness the Saint Son, Your Excellency the Pope is probably not as..."
"Elder Ju, let me tell you another secret. The Previous Pope, Qian Xunjie, did not die at Tang Hao's hands. He died at Bibi Dong's hands. Do you understand now?"
Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo nearly jumped up.
"Your Highness the Saint Son, y-you must be joking."
"I am not joking. Ghost Douluo and you are both people I think highly of, and I hope you will make the right choice.
"Besides, you have rendered many services to Spirit Hall and are even considered Bibi Dong's trusted aides, but has Bibi Dong ever given you the slightest reward?
"Not to mention anything else, with the Pope's authority, she could still obtain several Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones.
"Do not waste your time on someone who is not worth your devotion."
Xiao Chenlong patted Chrysanthemum Douluo on the shoulder. Since he was too short, Xiao Chenlong was floating in the air.
"Just take these words to heart, Elder Ju. There is no need to dwell on them too much. Spirit Hall will eventually be handed over to Qian Renxue and me."
"Yes, Your Highness the Saint Son. I will remember your words."
Afterward, Chrysanthemum Douluo continued taking the Golden Generation out for training. At Xiao Chenlong's suggestion, he threw them into the Great Soul Arena.
For training in actual combat, the Great Soul Arena was undoubtedly the best place.
In Spirit City's Worship Hall, Qian Daoliu had already received Qian Renxue's letter.
He summoned Golden Crocodile Douluo and handed him the letter.
"Elder Brother, is this true?"
"Xiao Long would not joke about something like this."
"Then what is there to hesitate about? We can settle it in one stroke, and Xiao Xue will not need to continue undercover in Heaven Dou City."
"Sigh, you know that I sent Xue'er to Heaven Dou City as an undercover agent not for some Nation-Snatching Plan."
"Elder Brother, can Bibi Dong truly not be touched? If she continues serving as Pope, I fear..."
"I will keep an eye on her and will not let her act recklessly. I agree to this plan, but Xue'er must remain in Heaven Dou City for now, at least until Xiao Long and Xue'er have both grown up.
"Golden Crocodile, make the trip yourself and convey my intentions."
"Yes!"
After Golden Crocodile Douluo left, Qian Daoliu rubbed his brow. He felt that things might not end so easily.
Bibi Dong had already begun threatening him. Naturally, Xiao Chenlong would not sit around waiting to die. Qian Daoliu might fear the Rakshasa God behind Bibi Dong, but Xiao Chenlong did not.
"It is time for that naive little girl to learn the truth. I hope she can bear it."
Xiao Chenlong began writing stories again. This time, the stories were Blind Saintess and Shameless Trash and How a White-Eyed Wolf is Raised.
The two stories naturally pointed to Bibi Dong. However, Xiao Chenlong concealed the real names and Spirit Hall, though Bibi Dong would definitely realize it at once.
By the time he finished writing the two stories, it was already night. Xiao Chenlong stretched lazily. Tonight would be an interesting night.
The Goat Talisman flashed in Xiao Chenlong's eyes, and then his soul left his body and departed Spirit Hall for the Crown Prince's Mansion.
After arriving at the Crown Prince's Mansion, Xiao Chenlong headed straight for Qian Renxue's room.
Qian Renxue was already asleep. Xiao Chenlong immediately entered her dream, curious about what she would dream of.
In Qian Renxue's dream, the setting was Spirit City. She was playing freely while Bibi Dong and Qian Xunjie watched her gently from the side.
In her dream, Bibi Dong and Qian Xunjie were a loving couple, and their family of three was incomparably happy.
Is this what she longs for even in her dreams? How foolish. Sorry, but I can only tear apart this false dream of yours and show you something real.
Under Xiao Chenlong's control, Qian Renxue's dream instantly changed in style.
This was a Secret Chamber. Qian Xunjie sat there, looking utterly dispirited.
Bibi Dong slowly approached, smiling.
Qian Renxue had become an observer at this moment, bewildered and at a loss.
"My good disciple, what have you come here for?"
"To collect a debt!"
"How dare you!"
Qian Xunjie had barely tried to move when spider silk bound him tightly, while sharp Spider Spears unfolded behind Bibi Dong.
"You shameless beast!"
The sharp Spider Spears pierced Qian Xunjie's body, and Bibi Dong's eyes were filled with the pleasure of revenge.
Qian Renxue wanted to stop her, only to discover that it was as if she did not exist in this Space-Time. She rushed forward, but passed straight through Bibi Dong and Qian Xunjie's bodies.
"No! No!"
Qian Renxue screamed loudly, yet she could not make a sound at all.
She could only watch helplessly as Bibi Dong devoured Qian Xunjie completely.
Having taken her revenge, Bibi Dong let out wild, unrestrained laughter.
At the corner of her eye, Qian Renxue also saw someone she could not believe was there.
"Grandfather?!"
Qian Renxue jolted awake, gasping heavily, her eyes full of terror.
Xiao Chenlong's soul also withdrew.
"That was a bit too stimulating. I wonder whether she is willing to believe this truth. If she refuses to believe it, then I'll just do it a few more times."
Xiao Chenlong's soul returned to his body first, and he stopped paying attention to Qian Renxue. Qian Renxue, however, suffered from insomnia and did not sleep all night.
The next day, a new newspaper went on sale, and Xiao Chenlong's two stories spread across the Douluo Continent with it.
By coincidence, when Chrysanthemum Douluo brought the Golden Generation back to Spirit City, the newly released newspaper happened to arrive as well.
Bibi Dong set the newspaper aside first and said to Chrysanthemum Douluo, "Elder Ju, how did this trip go?"
"They performed well, and their strength has improved as well."
"Mm, not bad. You may withdraw for now."
"Yes!"
Hu Liena and the other two left Spirit Hall first.
"Elder Ju, did the Holy Son send any message?"
"This..."
Cold sweat broke out on Chrysanthemum Douluo's forehead again.
"What is it? Speak!"
"Your Excellency the Pope, His Highness the Holy Son tore up your handwritten letter."
