The Sixth and Seventh of the Offering Hall Were Dissatisfied

"You mean this Qian Renxue, this child of the Pope's bloodline, might be the current Pope Bibi Dong's daughter? Could she be the child of the former Pope and the current Pope...?"

"Big Brother, they're master and disciple. How could that be possible?!"

"And even if she were their child, why would they choose to hide it? It definitely isn't true!"

At that moment, the people of both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire felt that there was some enormous gossip waiting to be uncovered. They eagerly began discussing it, but everyone had their own version and interpretation, with no unified opinion.

[Qian Renxue: Grandpa, what exactly is that woman talking about? Tell me.]

Qian Renxue was already seated in a carriage with Porcupine Douluo and Snake Spear Douluo, preparing to leave. Even the Heaven Dou Empire did not know where its Crown Prince had gone; they only knew that he had suddenly vanished.

[Qian Daoliu: "..."]

At that moment, Qian Daoliu truly did not want to say it aloud. Was he supposed to tell his granddaughter that her father had violated her mother, and that was how she had come into being?

Although Qian Daoliu understood that this whole matter had been provoked by Bibi Dong, that ungrateful wretch, it was ultimately far too disgraceful. No matter how he put it, telling his granddaughter that her father had violated her mother and that her mother loved someone else would cause Qian Renxue immense harm.

At that moment, Qian Daoliu still hoped that Bibi Dong would consider the bigger picture and not reveal this matter.

"Big Brother! I think Bibi Dong will definitely expose this. Everyone knows how insane that woman is. She's a crazy bitch and an ungrateful wretch. This will come out sooner or later, so she might as well confess honestly now."

The speaker was Demon Subduing Douluo. He was the youngest member of the Offering Hall and Qianjun Douluo's brother. They were also among those who knew the inside story. In their eyes, Bibi Dong was an ungrateful wretch. Back then, she had actually wanted to be with a useless man from an opposing force—anyone would have gone mad over that. Therefore, they believed Qian Xunji had done nothing wrong, and such an ungrateful wretch did not deserve any kindness.

Thus, they could not understand what their eldest brother, Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu, was thinking. Faced with such an ungrateful wretch, he still nitpicked and acted as if she had a point. That was simply brainless.

At the very least, the two brothers believed Bibi Dong had been in the wrong first. After enjoying so many benefits from Spirit Hall, she had still wanted to be with that useless man, whose theories were as laughable as a pile of shit.

The Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls were common knowledge, including the saying that there were no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters. Did Douluo Continent really never consider such things from the beginning? Yet the truth was that powerful Title Douluo were basically all possessed of excellent high-grade martial souls or top-tier martial souls. When had a useless martial soul or low-grade martial soul ever reached the rank of Title Douluo?

And innate full soul power was also extremely important. These were all experiences and facts left behind by countless soul masters of Douluo Continent. Spirit Hall had recorded all of it—did it not know? Did it not know how ridiculous Yu Xiaogang's theories were?

Besides, everyone knew why Yu Xiaogang had left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan back then. Was it not because his martial soul was too useless? He had joined Spirit Hall in hopes of finding a way to solve that problem.

The main issue was that the books and materials available for public viewing contained knowledge already familiar to everyone. Yet what had Yu Xiaogang done? He had seduced someone else's saintess, and that saintess had willingly been deceived, believing in common knowledge such as the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls.

Wasn't that enough to make people laugh themselves to death?

Therefore, in the eyes of the sixth and seventh offerings of Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji had done nothing wrong back then.

When dealing with an ungrateful wretch who wanted to be with a useless enemy, there should have been no mercy at all. He should have made her keep bearing children and produce outstanding offspring for Spirit Hall.

"Sixth Brother! Seventh Brother! In the end, what we did was still disgraceful. Otherwise, Spirit Hall's reputation will be ruined."

"So we should allow an ungrateful wretch to freely show Spirit Hall's materials to a useless man? And let that useless man claim Spirit Hall's materials as his own, saying they were his? Don't you think that's laughable? Is it really worth being like this for an ungrateful wretch?"

No matter what, Demon Subduing Douluo believed that they were in the right in this matter, while Bibi Dong, that ungrateful wretch, was the one in the wrong.

[Qian Renxue: Grandpa, was something about me hidden from me back then? Tell me!]

After seeing Bibi Dong's words on the screen, Qian Renxue began to grow curious. Was there something wrong with her birth? Why did her mother look at her as though she were looking at something filthy?

Could it be that there was some unspeakable secret behind why her mother and father had given birth to her?

"Do you two know something?"

Upon hearing this, Porcupine Douluo and Snake Spear Douluo did not know what they should say.

As elders of Spirit Hall, She Long and Porcupine Douluo naturally knew some things about the past, including Bibi Dong's feelings for Yu Xiaogang. But as for why Bibi Dong had ultimately given birth to Qian Renxue and why she hated Qian Xunji, any clever person could more or less guess what the problem was. Even an idiot could sense that something was wrong.

Although neither of them knew the full truth back then, they had both harbored the same suspicion: could it be that the former Pope had used disgraceful means to make Bibi Dong bear the young mistress, Qian Renxue?

When that thought first appeared in their minds, neither of them chose to speak of it. Instead, they buried it and asked nothing, because it was disgraceful. If others discovered that they had suspected such a thing, they might suffer for it. Besides, by then, Bibi Dong had already become the Pope of Spirit Hall.

The two of them knew perfectly well what kind of person Bibi Dong was: someone utterly mad and extremely dangerous.

That made it even more impossible for them to speak carelessly. Now, as they watched the comments in the sky—

The way Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong spoke to each other made it seem as though Qian Daoliu owed Bibi Dong something. Thus, the two of them understood that their earlier suspicion might truly have been correct: Qian Xunji had forcibly violated Bibi Dong, resulting in Qian Renxue's birth.

Even then, neither of them dared say it aloud. One side was Bibi Dong, and the other was Qian Daoliu. If they revealed it without either party's permission, the consequences could be extremely severe.

"Young Mistress, we really can't say anything about this. And we don't know the full details either. We're afraid that our guesses may be wrong."
