Qian Daoliu's Proposal

After her mood improved, Bibi Dong's mind became much more normal than before.

Looking at Yue Guan, who was still kneeling before her, she returned to the papal throne and casually said in a languid tone:

"Get up first. Tell me in detail what exactly is going on with that kid."

The moment those words were spoken, Yue Guan felt as though he had been granted a pardon. He hurriedly thanked her and rose, but before he could begin his account, Bibi Dong suddenly remembered something as she looked at Qian Daoliu beside her:

"Wait! I remember you just said that beside the kid who refined that pill was a little girl suspected of being a descendant of the Angel Clan?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu's attention was instantly captured, and he immediately turned to Yue Guan:

"What is going on? Explain in detail!"

With two of Spirit Hall's most powerful figures questioning him at once, how could Yue Guan dare conceal anything?

He hurriedly recounted every detail he knew about that little girl.

After hearing it all, Bibi Dong directly questioned Qian Daoliu:

"Grand Worshipper, does the present Angel Clan have any younger generation members matching Yue Guan's description?"

Qian Daoliu thought it over seriously, then shook his head:

"At least in my memory, there is no one who fits those conditions."

Qian Daoliu's response caused Bibi Dong to narrow her eyes, her tone turning grim as well:

"In other words, the little girl beside that kid is very likely Qian Renxue, whose body shrank after taking this Soul-Gathering Pill?"

As soon as she said that, the entire Papal Palace fell silent once more.

Yue Guan was completely dumbfounded.

What had he just heard?

What did she mean, that the little girl beside Jiang Xuan, who seemed so close to him, was Qian Renxue, the young mistress of Spirit Hall?

Qian Daoliu carefully considered Bibi Dong's words, and agreement gradually appeared in his eyes:

"Your reasoning makes sense! After all, soul masters possessing the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul are exceedingly rare, and your body has shrunk as well..."

"Based on my judgment, the girl Yue Guan saw is very likely Xue'er! The reason Xue'er has disappeared these past few days is presumably because she is following that kid and seeking a way to return to normal. In her current state, she simply cannot remain undercover in the Heaven Dou Empire."

After hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Bibi Dong nodded as well.

This deduction was perfectly logical.

The only question now was where those two were.

At that moment, Bibi Dong could not wait to find Jiang Xuan.

A precious talent capable of refining a "Rejuvenation Pill" had to be recruited into Spirit Hall at any cost!

If such a talent fell into the hands of an enemy faction, then with his terrifying alchemy abilities, he could swiftly cultivate a large number of powerful experts in a short time. The trouble Spirit Hall would face then was simply unimaginable.

"Yue Guan, heed my order!"

"Your subordinate is here!"

"I order you to leave immediately. Within three days, find that kid's whereabouts and bring him back to Spirit Hall. If you accomplish this, there will be nothing I will refuse you!"

Normally, upon receiving Bibi Dong's order, Yue Guan would have immediately carried it out without question.

But after receiving the order this time, he appeared somewhat hesitant.

Seeing this, Bibi Dong immediately said in displeasure:

"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and carry out the mission!"

After taking a deep breath, Yue Guan felt it would be better to explain this matter in advance:

"Your Holiness, this subordinate suddenly remembered something I forgot to mention earlier."

The moment he said this, Yue Guan saw Bibi Dong's dark expression and did not dare delay. He hurriedly added:

"When I observed that kid refining pills at close range, I noticed that his method of controlling fire was rather similar to the Heart Separation Control technique inherited by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Therefore, I suspect that kid may very well be a descendant of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong swiftly suppressed all her other emotions:

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Are you certain?"

"I am at least eighty percent sure. If he is not from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, this subordinate cannot think of any other major faction capable of cultivating such a young alchemy master!"

Bibi Dong fell silent.

But at that moment, Qian Daoliu offered his own thoughts:

"If that is the case, we may as well send someone to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect first and properly probe their situation. If that kid truly belongs to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, acting rashly might directly make enemies of the Upper Three Sects! That would be detrimental to Spirit Hall's grand plan of unifying the world."

The Upper Three Sects stood together through prosperity and hardship, sharing both glory and loss.

If Spirit Hall could move against a core descendant of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect today, the other two great sects would naturally worry about the fate of their own successors.

And Spirit Hall was not yet prepared to wage war against the Upper Three Sects, much less the entire continent. For now, they could only take the safer course.

Having understood the crux of the matter, Bibi Dong nodded unwillingly:

"If so, then I will have to trouble you, Grand Worshipper, to make the trip personally. Let Yue Guan accompany you. I will not go, since my current appearance is inconvenient to show to others..."

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was, after all, one of the Upper Three Sects. Two Super Douluo guarded the sect, so without sending a sufficiently powerful expert, they likely would not be able to hold the situation under control.

Since Bibi Dong could not go herself, she could only entrust the matter to a worshipper from the Worship Hall. Considering that Jiang Xuan's matter was not suitable for too many people to know yet, she could only entrust it to Qian Daoliu, who had proposed this course of action.

Bibi Dong's words made Qian Daoliu frown, but he ultimately said nothing more.

Although he had ignored worldly affairs for many years and had not appeared in public.

This involved his own granddaughter, Qian Renxue, as well as a key figure who could determine just how far Spirit Hall could go in the future. There was no harm in him moving his old bones a little.

"Fine. Time is of the essence. We leave at once!"

Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Jiang Xuan was refining a pill that could help Dugu Bo resolve the side effects of his Martial Soul.

However, halfway through the refining process, a notification suddenly appeared on the system panel.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully gifting a Soul-Gathering Pill]

[Rebate obtained: 10,000 Merit Points.]

The message distracted Jiang Xuan slightly, but he did not think much of it.

After all, he had only given away a few pills. Based on his past experience, a rebate of 10,000 Merit Points meant the person who consumed it was definitely a Title Douluo.

Since Gu Rong was unlikely to take it of his own accord, there was an eighty to ninety percent chance that Chrysanthemum Pass had eaten the Soul-Gathering Pill Jiang Xuan gave him!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. I wonder what Chrysanthemum Pass looks like after being turned into a woman, and what his state of mind is? Will he be extremely grateful to me?"

Jiang Xuan was feeling utterly delighted.

He had absolutely no idea that events had already developed far beyond his expectations.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Sensing two powerful auras that had suddenly appeared above the sect, Gu Rong, who had been discussing the changes in Chen Xin's figure after his gender swap with Ning Fengzhi, immediately tensed up:

"May I ask which distinguished guests have arrived? Coming uninvited is somewhat lacking in courtesy."
