Two Limit Douluo stood facing each other from afar.
Qian Daoliu could no longer hold on. A surge of blood rose to his throat, but he forcibly swallowed it back down.
Although he had blocked the strike from Bo Saixi's avatar and Lu Xuan, half the credit went to the Angel God Sword.
Even so, the shockwave produced by the clash of killing moves had shattered his ribs and even damaged his internal organs. Fortunately, with a Limit Douluo's recovery ability, such injuries were nothing serious.
However.
If Lu Xuan also possessed a divine artifact, then things would be difficult to say.
Qian Daoliu took a deep breath and sighed emotionally.
"Heroes have always emerged from the young. The waves behind drive the waves ahead."
"I really am old!"
Original timeline—
All the spectators waited with bated breath.
Separated by the Sky Screen, they had no idea who had gained the upper hand in that exchange.
Only when Qian Daoliu spoke did everyone become utterly shocked.
"What did the Grand Worshipper mean by that? Was he admitting that he lost?"
If that was true, the shock would be earth-shattering!
Some people refused to believe it and argued:
"Perhaps he was merely being modest. After all, the Grand Worshipper is a Limit Douluo who has been famous for many years. Even if the Supreme Douluo is an unparalleled genius, he is still young, lacking both foundation and accumulated experience."
Someone immediately sneered:
"Lacking accumulation? Are you saying a monstrous genius who became a Titled Douluo at twenty and reached the Limit realm at twenty-six has no foundation? Ridiculous! Do you think someone could break through to the Limit realm without sufficient accumulation?"
"Using your own experiences to speculate about a genius is foolish!"
The man was left speechless. He opened his mouth, but had no way to refute it.
Indeed, how could geniuses be measured by common sense?
Especially a peerless monster like that?
Yet the true experts had already seen the clues.
Sea God Island.
Sea Dragon Douluo could not help asking:
"High Priestess, who do you think won? The Spirit Hall's Grand Worshipper, or the Supreme Douluo?"
Bo Saixi withdrew her beautiful gaze from the Sky Screen, her eyes shimmering with wonder.
Bo Saixi had always been competitive. All her life, she had refused to lose to any man, which was why, in her era, she had risen as a woman to become one of the three greatest experts in the world.
Not even Tang Chen or Qian Daoliu could make her bow her head and admit defeat.
But when facing Lu Xuan from another spacetime—
Bo Saixi could not even bring herself to compare herself with him.
Faced with Sea Dragon Douluo's question, Bo Saixi pondered for a moment before answering:
"The Supreme Douluo held the upper hand just now."
Bo Saixi had fought both Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen.
The three of them had also been old friends for many years.
Therefore, Bo Saixi had a clear understanding of Qian Daoliu's strength.
Lu Xuan's strike just now had been stronger!
Thinking of this, Bo Saixi's feelings became somewhat complicated.
After all, in a sense, she and Lu Xuan had joined forces to attack Qian Daoliu.
Why did that feel a little ambiguous?
Worship Hall.
Golden Crocodile Douluo raised the same question as Sea Dragon Douluo.
"Grand Worshipper, who do you think won?"
Qian Daoliu: "..."
He chose to remain silent.
At the same time, he quietly added Golden Crocodile Douluo to his little blacklist.
Was Golden Crocodile doing this on purpose? Was he deliberately mocking me and trying to embarrass me?
Sky Screen timeline—
Lu Xuan asked:
"Grand Worshipper, do you still want to fight?"
Qian Daoliu shook his head.
"If we continue, even at tens of thousands of meters in the air, it may still affect Spirit City. Let us stop here."
When experts exchanged moves, they stopped once the point had been made.
If they truly continued, it would become a fight to the death. There was no need.
Qian Daoliu looked at Lu Xuan, his gaze meaningful.
"Supreme Douluo, we have already sparred."
"You may now tell me why you came."
No one visited without a reason.
Although Qian Daoliu had only met Lu Xuan a few times, he knew that Lu Xuan was an extreme pragmatist. Would he come merely to fight him? He was not that bored.
He had likely only displayed his strength first.
Lu Xuan raised a thumb and smiled brightly.
"With an elder at home, one has a treasure at home."
"The Grand Worshipper is still smart. Unlike Little Xunji, whose mind is filled with filthy thoughts, to the point that even his brain has stopped working properly."
Little Xunji?
Outside the Sky Screen, the spectators froze for a moment.
Then their expressions all turned strange.
Could the "Little Xunji" the Supreme Douluo mentioned possibly be Qian Xunji, the Pope of Spirit Hall?
It seemed that the Supreme Douluo truly had no respect whatsoever for Pope Qian Xunji. One could even faintly sense his disdain for Qian Xunji.
Only one person was deeply stirred.
Bibi Dong gripped her jeweled scepter tightly and looked at Lu Xuan's figure on the Sky Screen. Suddenly, she felt that the Supreme Douluo was not only talented and powerful, but also remarkably perceptive!
The more she looked at Lu Xuan, the more pleasing he became to her eyes. She truly wished she could speak with him by candlelight through the night, sitting knee to knee in intimate conversation.
Lu Xuan's smile faded as he said calmly:
"I came this time with one goal that must be achieved."
"Whoever stands in my way, I will clear away every obstacle!"
As he spoke, a trace of chill entered Lu Xuan's voice.
Qian Daoliu's expression turned solemn.
He suddenly realized that this young man would never rest until he achieved his goal, and he did not care in the slightest about so-called worldly restraints.
He was like a long sword piercing the blue heavens.
"Speak."
Qian Daoliu said.
Lu Xuan withdrew his sharpness and smiled lightly.
"It is simple. Your Spirit Hall has someone named Bibi Dong. I want her."
The words were spoken as lightly as drifting clouds, yet they exploded beside Qian Daoliu's ears like thunder.
They were even more like a storm sweeping across the world.
In another spacetime, they stirred up enormous waves!
Original timeline—
Everyone was stunned numb.
"Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit! This Supreme Douluo is too bold! He actually called out the Pope by name and demanded her! I cannot even express my admiration in words. I am utterly convinced—I worship him!"
As he spoke, the man actually knelt down in full view of everyone and began kowtowing toward Lu Xuan on the Sky Screen.
Yet no one in the crowd thought it was exaggerated. Instead, they launched into a heated, animated discussion.
"Awesome! So this is the Supreme Douluo? As expected, the strongest man should possess the most beautiful woman. That is the true pursuit of life!"
"I hate this! Why am I not the Supreme Douluo? I also want to reach the peak while still young, say whatever I want without restraint, and possess every beautiful thing!"
"No! Supreme Douluo, I only just became your fan! Why did you suddenly reveal your fangs? Please do not do something irreversible!"
"What do you know? I think a Supreme Douluo like this is honest enough. How many people are hypocritical hypocrites, saying one thing in public and another behind the scenes?"
"This is grave disrespect! Won't Her Holiness the Pope be enraged?"
With one simple sentence from Lu Xuan, the attention of the spectators beneath the Sky Screen instantly shifted from his battle with Qian Daoliu to Bibi Dong.
Compared to the excited gossiping masses—
The experts across the continent were not doing much better.
This topic... was truly somewhat taboo!
