Although Bibi Dong had ascended to the position of Pope, not everyone in Martial Soul Hall took orders from her.
The Worship Hall went without saying, but even within the Elder Hall, Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo did not regard her as their Pope; in their hearts, the only masters of Martial Soul Hall were the Qian family!
They listened to Qian Daoliu, they listened to Qian Xunji, they listened to Qian Renxue, but Bibi Dong...
Sorry, unless the Qian family tells us to help you, we won't listen to a word you say.
"That bitch Bibi Dong, she sees that we only listen to the Great Protector and the Young Mistress, not her, so she plans to kill us in the future to weaken the Young Mistress's influence. Now that I know, I will never let her succeed!" Snake Lance Douluo gritted his teeth, a wave of killing intent radiating from his body.
He wanted to kill Bibi Dong and clear the threats for the Young Mistress!
"Pull back your aura, don't let Chen Xin discover us!" Seeing his old partner so enraged that he had even released his killing intent, Porcupinefish Douluo, who had been silent until now, hurriedly spoke up to warn him.
Hearing this, Snake Lance Douluo came to his senses; he closed his eyes and hurriedly reined in his killing intent.
Once he had calmed his aura and opened his eyes again, he whispered to Porcupinefish Douluo, "Chi Xue, what are your plans? We can't just sit here and wait for death."
"Bibi Dong's strength is immense; even if we joined forces, we couldn't defeat her. Let's wait until we return to the Crown Prince's Mansion and hear what the Young Mistress has to say," Porcupinefish Douluo replied.
Snake Lance Douluo nodded, feeling somewhat unreconciled.
He wanted to kill Bibi Dong—that wasn't just empty talk—but... he truly couldn't beat her. It seemed he would have to plan this carefully.
[On the Sky Screen, the images continued to play. The figures of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo gradually elongated under the setting sun, and then, the Sky Screen turned black, followed by the appearance of another scene. In a dark, secret chamber. Bibi Dong arrived here holding her scepter, scanning the environment. A vast, booming voice echoed in her mind. "Bibi Dong, Martial Soul Hall raised you, yet you betrayed it for the sake of a piece of trash who could never break through level thirty. Your teacher punished you in a filthy manner, and to take revenge, you killed him, and you even wanted to kill your own child." "Your heart has been completely occupied by hatred; dark, negative emotions shroud your soul, nourishing your power while twisting your spirit." "You wish to grow stronger through corruption to take revenge on this world, but as long as I am here, you will not succeed!" "Even if you inherit the Rakshasa God position, you will ultimately be no match for my Sun God power!" "Shut up!!!!" Bibi Dong could no longer hold back, opening her mouth to scream. "Boom! Boom! Boom!..." A powerful sonic shockwave swept through the entire chamber, shaking it violently. When the scene returned to calm, Bibi Dong gripped her scepter tightly and spoke coldly to the empty air: "You cannot stop me. I am Xue'er's mother; you dare not kill me, but I dare to kill you! Just wait, once I become a god, I will destroy you along with this world!" With that, Bibi Dong closed her eyes, beginning to refine her rage and amplify her hatred, drawing upon this negative power to bolster her strength. The image slowly shifted. Another building appeared—a wooden house built on the edge of a cliff. In front of the house, a young man in red robes sat in a chair, brewing tea for himself. The afterglow of the setting sun shone upon him, and even through the Sky Screen, it felt warm and peaceful. The image zoomed in, revealing the man's appearance. Short black hair, exquisite and handsome features, with a mole at the corner of his right eye. Yuan Qi! Although he looked much more mature than when he appeared on the Sky Screen last time, everyone could still recognize him at a glance through his silhouette and features. "Speak, what do you want to ask me?" Yuan Qi said softly. A figure standing not far from him appeared on the Sky Screen, and as the view zoomed in, his appearance was magnified. This was a middle-aged man wearing a black cloak, with a stubbly beard and messy hair. "I wish to ask you about the cause of Qian Xunji's death. Was he truly mortally wounded by my Clear Sky Hammer and died of his injuries, or was he killed by Bibi Dong?" the middle-aged man asked. "You consorted with a soul beast and gave birth to a half-beast; your conduct is despicable! I did not intend to answer your question, but seeing as you have come all this way and suffered much for this matter... very well, I will tell you. The answer is as you suspect. Your ring detonation impact back then was not fatal to Qian Xunji; the one who truly killed him was Bibi Dong's Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor!" As he spoke, Yuan Qi picked up his teacup and took a light sip. Hearing this answer, the middle-aged man stumbled back a few steps, then tears streamed down his face as he burst into hysterical laughter. "Hahaha, it really is true, it actually is true! What a Bibi Dong, what a Bibi Dong indeed! You caused my Clear Sky Sect to be forced into seclusion, you caused my father to resent me for disregarding the sect's safety for Ah Yin's sake, leading him to die in a fit of rage, and you made me an outcast abandoned by my family!" "Yet she was also your benefactor; without her, how could you have avenged your wife?" Yuan Qi said indifferently. The man's weeping laughter stopped abruptly. "Go now, leave me," Yuan Qi waved his hand, and a golden light enveloped the middle-aged man, after which his figure vanished within it. The image ended there. A vast, seemingly emotionless voice resonated across the Sky Screen. I am the Sky Screen. Previously, I revealed the existence of Xue Hen, Tang San, and Yuan Qi. Today, I reveal the cause of death of the former Pope of Martial Soul Hall, Qian Xunji, and the future destruction of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Since the future is known, it can be changed; everything lies in your own hands.]
"Hum~" A humming sound resonated across the continent, and just like the previous two times, the Sky Screen slowly vanished, and the firmament began to return to its original state.
Across the continent, everyone was left in a daze.
Although many had already harbored this suspicion, a guess remained just a guess; yet, what did the Sky Screen say this time?
The previous Pope, Qian Xunji, was actually killed by the current Pope?!
This, this... this is massive news!!!
On the streets of Heaven Dou City.
Qian Renxue did not know when she had slumped to the ground, her eyes vacant, her body shivering uncontrollably.
It was her, it really was her, she was the one who killed Father... Qian Renxue repeated this sentence over and over in her mind.
"Hahaha~" Just as she was on the verge of a breakdown, a burst of laughter suddenly rang out beside her.
It was Ning Fengzhi.
"This isn't just a shadow war; Martial Soul Hall is about to be torn apart by a fierce internal conflict! Bibi Dong killing Qian Xunji has been confirmed by the Sky Screen. Yuan Qi personally verified it to Clear Sky Douluo on the Sky Screen, so now everyone knows. Can those Martial Soul Hall spirit masters loyal to the Qian family still accept such a Pope? Bibi Dong has been Pope for twelve years; she must have her own power base by now. When the two sides clash, the strength of Martial Soul Hall will inevitably be greatly depleted. How could they possibly come to deal with our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect then?" Ning Fengzhi said, looking extremely pleased.
He felt that the future where the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was annihilated by Martial Soul Hall had been changed at this very moment.
Beside him, Sword Douluo nodded in agreement.
