At that moment, Gui Mei's low, hoarse voice sounded from beside them:
"Human-Form Spirit Beast!"
Bibi Dong nodded and said:
"If I'm not mistaken, that little girl is very likely a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that only recently took human form."
Yue Guan and Gui Mei exchanged glances, a flash of greed appearing in both their eyes before quickly fading. A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was not something they could lay their hands on.
The Pope was watching them like a hawk from above.
At that moment, Bibi Dong fixed her beautiful eyes on Gui Mei and ordered:
"Elder Gui, you're fast. I'll trouble you to make the trip personally. Take the captain of that Soul Hunting Group and investigate."
"That Human-Form Spirit Beast is still in its juvenile stage and cannot conceal her Spirit Beast aura at all. This is the best time to capture and kill her."
After pausing to think for two seconds, Bibi Dong continued:
"First, find out where she is staying. Remember not to alert the enemy. She dared to run around Star Dou Forest when she was only two years old. I suspect there may very well be other Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts around her."
"The Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python may also be connected to her. Judging from those two roars, they at least knew each other."
"Once you've investigated everything, return to see me immediately. Oh, and bring that Soul Hunting Group captain back with you as well."
"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope!"
Gui Mei bowed to accept the order. His figure immediately turned into Ghost Mist and vanished from the Council Hall, racing toward Xingyue Town, the outer-area town near Star Dou Forest.
Afterward, Bibi Dong coldly gave Yue Guan an order:
"Elder Ju, go select your men as well.
