"It would be even better if we could seize the Heaven Dou Empire without shedding a drop of blood."
"Hahahaha..." At this moment, Qian Xun'an laughed, looking at Qian Daoliu and saying, "Father, you really are naive!"
"If you truly acted for the sake of humanitarianism, for the ancestral teachings of the Angel clan, for justice and tolerance, then why would you need to invade other countries at all?"
"If it were for the benefit of Martial Soul Hall, wouldn't it be better to let Xiao Xue grow up under the cultivation of Martial Soul Hall and only invade after she has become a peerless powerhouse?"
"Yet, you wasted Xiao Xue's talent by sending her to the Heaven Dou Empire as an undercover agent?"
"What a truly 'great' plan that is!"
Qian Xun'an glared at Qian Daoliu with a cold snort. If it weren't for the fact that the old man before him was his own father, given his temper, he would have already taken action to teach him a lesson.
"Xun'an, don't be so agitated. Although Xiao Xue did indeed waste a few years of her talent, I have received news that Xueye the Great should not have many years left to live."
"As soon as he dies, Xiao Xue can logically inherit the throne, thereby seizing the Heaven Dou Empire without shedding a drop of blood!"
Qian Daoliu explained immediately.
"Not agitated? How could I not be agitated?"
Qian Xun'an looked at Qian Daoliu and said, "Father, in doing this, have you ever considered Xiao Xue's feelings? You are letting her waste over twenty years of her youth on this matter!"
"If you truly want to seize this Heaven Dou Empire, with your power as a Limit Douluo, why not mobilize all the Seven Great Elders and simply strike directly?"
"With your strength, who in that Heaven Dou Empire could possibly stop you?"
Qian Xun'an continued angrily.
Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Xun'an, a helpless expression appearing on his face, and then continued, "Actually, I have never thought about invading other countries."
"If I wanted to unify the continent, from the very beginning, I would not have allowed Bibi Dong to ascend to the position of Pope."
"Xiao Xue choosing to do this is more because of her mother, Bibi Dong."
Qian Xun'an understood from Qian Daoliu's words that his father did not want to unify the continent, so the one who wanted to do so was that Bibi Dong.
Qian Xun'an did not think that unifying the continent was a mistake; this world was one where the strong preyed on the weak, and the weak had to endure the blows.
However, what made Qian Xun'an resentful was the stupidity of this undercover plan.
Xiao Xue's talent was second only to his own, so those twenty-plus years of youth could have long since allowed Xiao Xue to become a powerful expert.
In a few more years, she could have become a Titled Douluo. Wouldn't cultivating Xiao Xue into a powerhouse be a hundred times better than this stupid plan?
Letting Xiao Xue go undercover?
It sounded like a decent plan, but who among them had considered Xiao Xue's safety?
Who was responsible for Xiao Xue's youth?
"Father, do you mean that Bibi Dong is the one who sent Xiao Xue?" Qian Xun'an asked, looking at Qian Daoliu.
Qian Daoliu nodded slightly and said, "The relationship between the mother and daughter is not good. Because your elder brother insulted Bibi Dong, Bibi Dong does not acknowledge this daughter."
"Since she was a child, Bibi Dong has regarded Xiao Xue as a sin, never treating her well."
"Therefore, from a young age, Xiao Xue has wanted to prove herself. She chose this plan this time in order to please her mother."
"As long as she completes this plan, it would be equivalent to helping her mother resolve an empire. In that case, her mother would surely treat her well."
Hearing this, Qian Xun'an became even more furious.
"Heh..."
Qian Xun'an looked at Qian Daoliu and said, "Is this the good daughter-in-law you defend?"
"Admittedly, my elder brother was at fault back then, but the child is innocent. It is one thing for her to dislike Xiao Xue, but to push Xiao Xue into the tiger's den?"
"In my eyes, she doesn't care about Xiao Xue's life or death at all, so she deliberately let Xiao Xue go undercover."
"In her eyes, even that trash Saintess is a hundred times better than Xiao Xue; otherwise, why would she have held a new election for the Saintess?"
At this moment, an extremely powerful aura erupted from Qian Xun'an's body.
He looked at Qian Daoliu and said, "Father, I don't care about how things were before, but now that I have returned, Xiao Xue is my elder brother's only flesh and blood, and she is the heir to our Martial Soul Hall."
"I must seek justice for Xiao Xue!"
At this moment, Qian Daoliu immediately said, "Xun'an, whatever you want to do, you must not be impulsive!"
Qian Xun'an looked at Qian Daoliu and said, "Father, you don't need to worry about anything, and as for what I do, you don't need to worry about that either!"
As Qian Xun'an spoke, he walked out of the Worship Hall and headed straight for the Pope Hall.
Pope Hall.
Bibi Dong sat on the throne of the Pope, her face full of sorrow.
Her fair, beautiful face was filled with extreme worry. She wore a bright golden gown, the Nine-Curved Purple Gold Crown on her head shone with ten thousand rays of light, and she held a scepter about two meters long, inlaid with countless gemstones.
Seeing Bibi Dong so sorrowful, the Chrysanthemum Douluo on the side immediately asked, "Your Holiness the Pope, what is it that makes you so sorrowful?"
Bibi Dong said calmly, "What else could it be?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately said, "I understand, it must be because of that matter regarding Qian Xun'an!"
Bibi Dong nodded and said, "This Qian Xun'an is extremely powerful. Moreover, he is bent on taking back the Martial Soul Hall, which makes him a major threat to me!"
"Your Excellency, why don't we devise a plan to..."
Bibi Dong shook her head and said, "Like Qian Daoliu, he is a Limit Douluo. How could a Limit Douluo be killed so easily?"
"Then, what should we do?" Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately asked.
Bibi Dong reached out and rubbed her temples.
Soon after, she murmured, "There will always be an opportunity!"
Bibi Dong pondered in her heart; she was close to passing the Rakshasa God Trial. Once the Nine Rakshasa Trials were completed, she would become a god.
At that time, she could kill whoever she wanted. She would naturally have a way to deal with a mere Qian Xun'an.
For now, the only plan was to keep Qian Xun'an steady.
Just as Bibi Dong was lost in worry, an extremely powerful aura suddenly erupted outside the Pope Hall, surging directly into the hall.
A terrifying sound of the Dao echoed through the air.
"Bibi Dong, get out here! I am here to seek justice for Xiao Xue!"
Bibi Dong, accompanied by Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, arrived outside the Pope Hall.
They saw Qian Xun'an standing in mid-air, his golden armor shimmering with a sacred light that complemented his handsome and resolute face.
His long hair danced in the breeze, and six golden wings unfurled behind him. A terrifying aura swirled around him; at this moment, Qian Xun'an looked like a god descended to the mortal realm.
Bibi Dong, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Ghost Douluo stood outside the Pope Hall, stunned by Qian Xun'an's appearance.
They widened their eyes, staring at his figure floating high in the sky.
Everyone felt the terrifying power emanating from Qian Xun'an, as if they were standing within a sacred domain.
At this moment, Bibi Dong stepped forward with Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, looked up at Qian Xun'an in the sky, and said, "Oh, isn't this the Head of the Enforcement Hall of the Judgment Hall?
Hmph... I wonder, what business do you have with me?"
A look of contempt appeared on Bibi Dong's face; she seemed to have little reverence for Qian Xun'an.
Qian Xun'an's cold voice rang out, "Bibi Dong, I want to ask you: was it you who sent your daughter to the Heaven Dou Empire to act as a spy?"
Bibi Dong chuckled lightly and said, "Oh, so you came for that little bitch. Daughter? I, Bibi Dong, have no daughter!"
"As for her going to the Heaven Dou Empire, that was her own decision. I certainly didn't force her!"
Hearing Bibi Dong's attitude, Qian Xun'an understood that in her eyes, there was no maternal love at all.
Qian Xun'an looked at Bibi Dong calmly and asked again, "Do you have no maternal affection for your daughter at all?"
Bibi Dong looked at Qian Xun'an with cold eyes and said, "That is a matter between her and me. What does it have to do with you? Or are you trying to be a busybody and meddle in others' affairs?"
Qian Xun'an looked at Bibi Dong's expression and asked once more, "If you don't even care about your own daughter, I want to know, what do you care about? Is it this position of Pope?"
Bibi Dong replied calmly, "My pursuits have nothing to do with you, and I am under no obligation to tell you!"
Qian Xun'an looked at Bibi Dong and said, "True, you are under no obligation to tell me these things, and I have no need to manage your mother-daughter affairs. However, you have forgotten one thing.
Qian Renxue bears the surname Qian; she is my eldest brother's daughter and a descendant of my Qian family.
Since she has been bullied, I, as her uncle, naturally must seek justice for her!"
"Seek justice? I wonder how you intend to seek justice for her?" Bibi Dong asked, looking at Qian Xun'an without a hint of fear.
Qian Xun'an looked at Bibi Dong calmly and said, "I am a simple man. Whoever I don't like, I beat!"
As he spoke, Qian Xun'an flew directly toward Bibi Dong. Bibi Dong looked at him and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Qian Xun'an looked at her and said, "What do I want to do? Naturally, I am going to teach you a lesson!"
With that, nine soul rings instantly manifested around Qian Xun'an. All nine rings were a brilliant crimson red, glowing upon his body.
At this moment, Bibi Dong, as well as Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo standing to the side, were utterly shocked and could not believe their eyes.
