The Pope Hall.
Bibi Dong sat upon the lofty papal throne, the Purple-Gold Scepter leaning against its armrest. One soft, jade-white hand propped up her pale, delicate cheek, and her long, rounded legs were crossed, lending her graceful figure a sensual air.
In her free hand, she held the intelligence sent back from Dragon City over nine months ago.
"She only became a Titled Douluo nine months ago, yet her soul power is no weaker than mine. And her younger sister went all the way from level seventy-nine to the ninety-fifth rank. It seems she must have stumbled upon some opportunity in the Far North." Bibi Dong's narrow, violet eyes studied the report in her hand. The opportunity Shui Qinghan had obtained was quite tempting.
If she could obtain it, her progress in the Rakshasa God Assessment would accelerate considerably.
The Rakshasa God had no High Priest. To begin the ninth trial, she needed to accumulate the entire soul power reserve of someone at level 99.
That was effectively the same as cultivating from scratch to level 99 all over again. The difficulty was easy to imagine.
Even with her twin martial souls, which allowed her to rapidly increase her soul power by adding soul rings to her second martial soul, she found it enormously taxing.
"If her opportunity really can be used by others, there's no reason she wouldn't use it on her daughter and disciple. I could have Nana and the others sound them out."
If her guess proved correct, she would trade the Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones that Spirit Hall had stockpiled for it.
They were the Qian Family's soul bones anyway. She felt no pain spending them.
As for seizing it by force...
Quite apart from the Rakshasa God Trial suppressing her to level 98
