Dugu Bo Greets His Holiness the Pope! May Your Holiness Be Well!
"Since you knew I was coming, why didn't you run? You've got guts! I admire you, so I'll give you a quick death!"
Dugu Bo arrived at the Ice-Fire Yin-Yang Well with imposing momentum and murderous intent, but when he saw Qian Xunji, he almost knelt down.
"Dugu Bo?" Qian Xunji's eyes were playful. "Interesting, isn't it? You actually want to kill me? Where do you get the guts, you mere Peak Level-89 Soul Douluo?!"
"Your His Holiness the Pope?!" Dugu Bo froze on the spot, his brain seemingly shutting down.
"Since you know me, do you know your crime?" Qian Xunji released the pressure of Titled Douluo, and nine Soul Ring slowly rose from beneath his feet.
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black, black.
Dugu Bo felt as if a huge mountain had landed directly on his shoulders, and he immediately knelt down.
Good heavens... This time they've really bitten off more than they can chew. It's actually His Holiness the Pope of the Spirit Hall? He knows very well how high the Spirit Hall's prestige has been lately!
Although he did not attend the Pope's wedding or the Spirit Hall's Young Master's Martial Soul Awakening Ceremony.
But he also heard from others just how powerful the Spirit Hall truly was! And how many years had it been since the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was destroyed by the Spirit Hall?!
"Dugu Bo greets His Holiness the Pope! I was unaware of His Holiness the Pope; please forgive my ignorance..."
Dugu Bo's body was trembling. If he had known it would be His Holiness the Pope, he would never have come in, much less uttered those arrogant words.
"Hmm..." Qian Xunji nodded slightly. Dugu Bo's moral bottom line was very flexible, so he was quite sensible.
"Dugu Bo, is this place yours?"
Dugu Bo quickly shook his head and said, "This place naturally belongs to the Spirit Hall! Since the Spirit Hall has discovered it, then it belongs to Your Majesty!"
"Uh..." Qian Xunji was stunned upon hearing this. He never expected Dugu Bo to kneel down so readily!
"Ahem!" Qian Xunji laughed, "Since that's the case, then this place belongs to our Spirit Hall. Dugu Bo, do you have any objections?"
Dugu Bo shook his head, "It's entirely up to Your Majesty's decision; Dugu Bo dares not have any objections..."
"Interesting!" Qian Xunji thought to himself. Dugu Bo's level of tact far exceeded his expectations!
"If Your Majesty has nothing else to attend to, then shall I take my leave?" Dugu Bo Dugu Bo asked tentatively.
"You're leaving already? Why are you in such a hurry? After all, you were the first to discover this place! Our Spirit Hall isn't some evil force! We'll compensate you!"
Qian Xunji that the other party was about to leave, Qian Xunji immediately said, "We can't let Dugu Bo go. If he leaves this time, who knows when we'll be able to find him again?"
"Huh?" Dugu Bo was taken aback. "I wonder what Your Majesty plans to compensate Dugu Bo with?!"
"No rush, no rush!" Qian Xunji said calmly, "You'll know when the time comes! Just wait a while."
If it were anyone else, they would probably have to give out a redemption code to get the Immortal Herbs, but unfortunately he is the Pope of the Spirit Hall!
"Dugu Bo understands, Dugu Bo." Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo obediently stepped aside and then observed his surroundings.
The blue-haired woman must be the Supreme Pontiff Consort, and those two children? Are they really only six years old? Judging from their appearance, they look like they're in their teens!
"It seems these two children are the Young Master of the Spirit Hall. They must be here to hunt for Soul Ring."
"What a pity! My luck is terrible; they actually stumbled into my herb garden! If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have set up the poison array outside!"
"My poison array can withstand other Soul Master! But for His Holiness the Pope, isn't this just blatantly trying to cover something up?!"
Dugu Bo was filled with regret. He definitely couldn't afford to offend the Spirit Hall! For the Spirit Hall, destroying him would be as easy as crushing an ant!
That's why he so directly gave this medicinal garden to the Spirit Hall in exchange for a chance to live.
"Something's not right..." Dugu Bo realized something was amiss. Why was that boy inside the Ice-Fire Yin-Yang Well?!
Even he wouldn't dare touch the spring water here lightly! Is it really okay for him to just soak in it like that?
"Should I remind Your Majesty? This spring water is not to be touched! If you die in it, you might take your anger out on me!"
"I can't die yet. I still have my granddaughter. She's only three years old. What will happen to her if I die? She's only three!"
After a series of rational struggles, Dugu Bo finally decided to tell Qian Xunji about it.
"Your His Holiness the Pope..." Dugu Bo said tremblingly.
"Hmm? Dugu Bo, is there anything you want to say?" Qian Xunji raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this. Did the other party still intend to run away?
If they still want to run away, then they're being incredibly shameless and need to be punished a little!
"Your His Holiness the Pope, this spring water..." Dugu Bo pointed to the spring of the Ice-Fire Yin-Yang Well and said, "Even I wouldn't dare to touch it lightly! Is it alright for the young master to soak in it like that?"
"So that's what it was about. Dugu Bo was afraid that if Xiao Feng died inside, I would hold a grudge against him," Qian Xunji thought to himself.
"It's alright!" Qian Xunji waved his hand and said, "Xiao Feng said he won't have any problems, I believe him!"
"Huh?" Dugu Bo was shocked upon hearing this. No, he's only six years old! Your His Holiness the Pope, are you really so sure he won't have any accidents?!
"I'm tired. Let it all end. I've already given all the necessary warnings. If you really die, don't blame me, will you?"
Dugu Bo thought to himself, also fearing that if something unexpected happened, Qian Xunji would take his anger out on him; he was no match for Titled Douluo.
Especially someone like Qian Xunji, an extremely powerful Titled Douluo!
Time passed slowly, but the three of them still showed no sign of finishing absorbing the Immortal Herbs, Qian Xunji could only wait.
Dugu Bo, however, was in agony, like an ant on a hot pan... He was filled with regret.
Why did I come in here? Why did I come in here?
If I hadn't come in, I probably wouldn't have encountered the Pope, and I certainly wouldn't have run into this mess!
"Gulp..." Dugu Bo swallowed hard, silently praying, "Please, please, nothing bad happens. If something does, I'm finished!"
However, Qian Xunji had no idea what Dugu Bo was thinking at that moment. "He's been consuming Whale Rubber for years, and now he's also taking Immortal Herbs... Xiao Feng should be able to directly absorb a two-thousand-year Soul Ring, right? As for Xiao Xue, even if she can't do it, she should be able to get close, right?"
"Forget it, we'll know whether they can absorb a two-thousand-year-old Soul Ring after they finish absorbing the Immortal Herbs."
