Early the next morning, the sun poured into the room through the window, and Lin Ye opened her eyes on time.
He glanced at Zhu Zhuqing who was still sleeping soundly in his arms, carefully pulled out his arm, and got up and got out of bed gently.
After the two of them washed up and put on decent clothes, they walked side by side towards the Papal Palace.
When they stepped into the majestic and magnificent hall, they found that Hu Liena, Xie Yue and Yan were already waiting there.
Seeing Lin Ye and Zhu Zhuqing walking in side by side,
Hu Liena was a little surprised. She felt keenly that after not seeing each other for a few days, the aura on Zhu Zhuqing seemed to be a little sharper. There was an indescribable sense of harmony standing together with Lin Ye.
"Disciple Lin Ye, meet the teacher!"
"Disciple Zhu Zhuqing, meet the teacher!"
The two of them walked to the center of the hall and bowed respectfully to the lofty Pope Bibi Dong.
"Hmm."
Bibi Dong responded lightly, his majestic eyes sweeping over the two of them.
When her eyes fell on Lin Ye, she paused for a moment.
"Lin Ye, I have given you one month to conduct reconnaissance at Heaven Dou City. It has only been less than seven days. How come you two are back so soon?"
Coming!
Zhu Zhuqing's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
Lin Ye still looked calm. He raised his head to meet Bibi Dong's gaze and said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone:
"In reply to the teacher, after the disciple and Zhuqing arrived at Heaven Dou City, they immediately conducted a detailed investigation of the various high-level Soul Master Academy teams."
"It turns out that whether it is Heaven Dou Royal Academy or other so-called strong teams, their strength is mediocre and vulnerable."
"The disciple thought that there was no need to waste any more time, so he returned early with Zhuqing, ready to concentrate on preparing for the finals."
What he said was reasonable and well-founded, and his expression was calm, as if that was really the case.
However, after listening to his words, Bibi Dong on the throne fell silent.
The hall suddenly became quiet.
Hu Liena and Xie Yue both lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
Yan sneered in his heart, waiting for a good show.
Just when Zhu Zhuqing was so nervous that his palms began to sweat, Bibi Dong suddenly sneered.
"Lin Ye, are you a fool to think you are a teacher?!"
Bibi Dong's voice contains a powerful coercion.
Zhu Zhuqing's heart trembled suddenly, and he subconsciously clenched the corners of Lin Ye's clothes.
Hu Liena and Xie Yue also froze up and buried their heads even lower, not even daring to take a breath.
It's been a long time since they've seen their teacher get so angry.
Only Yan was ecstatic when he heard Bibi Dong's angry rebuke!
Coming! Coming!
His Holiness the Pope is finally going to take care of this brat who doesn't know where to start!
He suppressed a smile and looked at Lin Ye with gloating, waiting to see how he would end up.
Facing Bibi Dong's anger, Lin Ye remained calm.
He knew that there was no way he could hide his little trick from the woman in front of him who controlled the entire Spirit Hall and had a mind like a demon.
From the beginning, he had no hope of getting away with it.
"Disciple doesn't dare." Lin Ye lowered his head slightly, but his tone remained calm.
"Don't you dare?"
Bibi Dong slowly stood up from the throne and looked down at him.
"I see you are very brave!"
"Detecting an opponent? It seems to me that the two of you are clearly going out for sightseeing and having private meetings under the guise of investigating!"
Huh?
Hanging out in private meetings?
These four words made Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks turn red instantly. He felt embarrassed and anxious, and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
She subconsciously wanted to open her mouth to defend herself, but was pulled back by Lin Ye calmly.
Lin Ye raised his head, met Bibi Dong's cold gaze, and said in a deep voice:
"Teacher, this matter..."
"Shut up!" Bibi Dong interrupted him sharply,
"You still want to quibble?"
She walked down the high steps step by step, her gorgeous papal robes dragging on the ground, making a slight rustling sound.
"Lin Ye ah Lin Ye, my teacher really underestimates you."
Bibi Dong walked up to the two of them, glanced at their tightly held hands, and the anger in his eyes became even stronger.
"My teacher asked you to go to Slaughter City to experience it. I hope you can sharpen your mind and become more stable and powerful!"
"But what about you? It hasn't been long since you came back from Slaughter City, and you've learned how to kidnap your master's direct disciples, and you've also learned to lie in front of your master!"
"Do you think that if you get a Divine Slaughter's Domain and a 100 victory, you will be invincible in the world and you can no longer take your teacher seriously?!"
Bibi Dong's voice became more and more fierce, and the terrifying pressure that he inadvertently exuded instantly pressed towards Lin Ye!
The hall was completely silent at the moment, Hu Liena and Xie Yue all lowered their heads.
Yan was even more excited and trembling all over!
Good! Well done!
His Holiness the Pope, you should beat him hard like this! Let him know who is the genius in the Spirit Hall!
However, Lin Ye, who was at the center of the pressure, still stood upright.
He just looked at Bibi Dong quietly, letting the huge pressure wash over his body.
He knew that Bibi Dong was not really angry with him.
Or rather, not entirely.
This is more like a knock, a warning.
Warn him not to become arrogant and arrogant because of his rapid improvement in strength.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing on the side couldn't bear it anymore.
Seeing Lin Ye bearing the pressure of Bibi Dong alone, she felt anxious and painful.
She suddenly broke away from Lin Ye's hand, took a step forward, and knelt down in front of Bibi Dong with a "plop"!
"Teacher, calm down!"
The girl's voice was trembling, but extremely firm.
"Don't blame Lin Ye! All of this... all of this is my fault!"
The sudden turn of events stunned everyone.
No one expected that Zhu Zhuqing, who had always been cold and aloof, would actually kneel down and beg for mercy in public for Lin Ye!
Lin Ye's brows instantly furrowed and he reached out to pull her up.
"Xiaoqing, what are you doing! Get up!"
"I don't!"
Zhu Zhuqing shook his head stubbornly, tears welling up in his eyes, and looked directly at Bibi Dong.
"Teacher! It was us who deceived you and it was our fault!"
"But... but all this happened because of me! It was me... it was me who was greedy and insisted on dragging Lin Ye to go shopping at Heaven Dou City's night market, which delayed the business!"
"If you want to punish me, just punish me! Please don't blame Lin Ye!"
She took all the responsibility on herself.
At this moment, she was no longer the girl who needed to be protected, but a warrior who wanted to use her meager strength to protect her beloved.
Looking at Zhu Zhuqing who was kneeling on the ground with a stubborn look on his face, placing all the blame on himself, Bibi Dong's eyes were complicated.
The anger on her face seemed to dissipate a little, and there was a hint of helplessness and relief.
This silly girl...
Then Bibi Dong's eyes fell on Lin Ye again.
"Okay, Lin Ye."
Her voice still sounded harsh, but the pressure directed at Lin Ye quietly dissipated unknowingly.
"Now that you are so powerful, you will let girls take the blame for you?"
"How handsome are you? Can my Xiaoqing dare to defy his master's order for you, and also plead for you in front of me?"
Bibi Dong's words sounded like a rebuke,
But why doesn't the content sound right?
