Spirit City, the Papal Hall.
Bibi Dong was listening to Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo report on the Heaven Dou Empire's coronation ceremony.
After hearing them out, even Bibi Dong could not help feeling bewildered.
It was truly unbelievable.
Xue Qinghe had proposed an alliance with Spirit Hall at his coronation, and Ning Fengzhi, Yu Yuanzhen, and Ye Cixin had actually seconded it?
Unable to find a reason despite racking her brains, Bibi Dong asked, "...Proposing an alliance with Spirit Hall at the coronation, with Ning Fengzhi, Yu Yuanzhen, and Ye Cixin stepping forward to support her... what do you make of it?"
Even as she spoke, she refused to say Qian Renxue's name.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo did not know where their pope's hatred for Qian Renxue came from. They could only answer cautiously, "Your Holiness, those three seconding the proposal was certainly unusual, but we do not know why either."
Bibi Dong gave a slight nod.
Very well, that is not the main issue. Since the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect know what is good for them, perhaps I can spare them from the purge in the future and instead allow them to retain their positions among the Upper Three Sects of the Seven Great Sects, supporting me in founding my own nation.
But...
At that thought, hatred and disgust crept into Bibi Dong's expression.
That old fellow Qian Daoliu probably will not allow the current Heaven Dou Empire to fall entirely under my control.
That old fossil rarely leaves Spirit City, but the Worship Hall's faction is still a considerable nuisance...
Clearly, Qian Renxue's accession was a mixed blessing for Bibi Dong.
The blessing was having one fewer powerful opponent; the worry was whether Qian Renxue would obey her.
