In Douluo, Already the Pope, Joined the Chat Group

Of course, while it was impossible to go up against the Ruthless Empress for the sake of Qian Xunji.

However, considering that Qian Xunji had treated her reasonably well, giving him a heads-up was still doable.

Hmm, this was just in case! It was also to ensure her own conscience could rest easy.

Thinking this way, Dongfang Bai organized her thoughts and then sent a message in the chat group.

Sunrise in the East, Invincible: "Ahem, the Heaven Swallowing Devil Art! That is a legacy second only to the Immortal Heaven Art. You really should cultivate it well, Group Leader!"

Seeing Dongfang Bai's words, how could the Ruthless Empress not know that the other party had misunderstood her, thinking she intended to scheme against Qian Xunji.

However, she had no intention of explaining.

After all, she didn't need to explain what she wanted to do to anyone!

What's more, Dongfang Bai wasn't anyone to her, so why should she explain herself to her!

Not to become an immortal, only to wait for your return in this red dust: "There is no need for 'Master', but since you have already cultivated the Heaven Swallowing Devil Art, you can be considered my successor. If you have any questions in the future, you can ask me directly."

Martial Soul Hall Pope: "Hmm, alright!"

While replying to the Ruthless Empress's message, Qian Xunji organized the doubts he had encountered during his cultivation, preparing to ask the Ruthless Empress via private message in a moment.

As for the problem Dongfang Bai was worried about, he didn't really care.

Not to mention that the Ruthless Empress wasn't the type of petty person who loved to scheme, he was just a weakling she could crush with a single finger—there was simply nothing worth her scheming for!

One had to know that even a God King level figure in the Douluo Continent might not be a match for the Ruthless Empress.

And he was still far from becoming a low-level god, let alone a high-level god, a main god, or even a God King above that.

Besides, would the dignified Ruthless Empress condescend to scheme against a weakling like him?

Was he worthy?

No, he was not worthy!

Furthermore, if the Ruthless Empress truly wanted to scheme against him, it wouldn't matter if he were the group leader; even if he were the King of Heaven himself, he would likely be helpless.

After all, the gap between them was too vast!

To call it a difference of heaven and earth was an understatement!

Therefore, Qian Xunji decisively set his mind at ease.

However, just as Qian Xunji finished organizing his questions and before he could ask them, he heard a light, familiar sound of footsteps coming from outside the secret chamber.

At the same time, a crisp and pleasant voice, also quite familiar to him, rang out from outside the door.

"Teacher, are you alright?"

It was Bibi Dong, who had sensed the commotion in the secret chamber where Qian Xunji was in seclusion and had turned back.

Hearing Bibi Dong's "concerned" greeting, Qian Xunji's eyes turned cold.

So impatient to see me meet with disaster—what a truly good disciple I have!

It seems it is time to let this rebellious disciple know what "fatherly love"—bah, what "masterly love as heavy as a mountain"—is all about.

Thinking this, Qian Xunji rubbed his face to soften his expression, then stood up and opened the door to the secret chamber. "Dong'er, why have you returned?"

At the same time, he didn't forget to leave a message for the group members, so they wouldn't worry if he disappeared for a while.

Martial Soul Hall Pope: "Everyone, keep chatting. I'm going offline to handle a private matter."

Seeing that Qian Xunji didn't look like he had met with disaster as she had imagined, and that his state even looked better than before, a trace of disappointment flashed imperceptibly in Bibi Dong's eyes.

She had thought the poison she administered had taken effect, and that Qian Xunji had lost control of the soul power in his body and self-destructed, causing the spiritual energy riot near the Martial Soul Hall.

Who would have thought it wasn't at all what she had imagined.

No, she couldn't jump to conclusions so easily.

Perhaps this was all just a disguise? And his better-than-before state could be a final burst of energy before death?

Thinking of this, Bibi Dong's eyes flickered slightly, and she replied with a respectful look, "Reporting to Teacher, the spiritual energy near the Martial Soul Hall just rioted. Disciple was worried that something had happened to you, so I..."

Waving his hand casually, Qian Xunji said with a gratified look, "I appreciate your concern, Dong'er, but your teacher is fine!"

"If Teacher is fine, then that is for the best!" While her words were full of filial piety, in secret, Bibi Dong was calmly sizing Qian Xunji up.

Could it be that he was really fine?

But no matter how she looked at him, Qian Xunji appeared completely unharmed. Seeing this, Bibi Dong felt quite disappointed.

Could it be that the poison she used was useless? Was that spiritual energy riot just now not caused by her teacher at all?
