Yue Guan's Dilemma, Gui Mei Bluntly Said Yue Guan Wasn't Human

After Yu Xiaogang left.

Qian Renxue had already learned of it and informed Su Yu.

"Let him go. We'll meet again someday."

Su Yu did not care.

They would naturally meet again in the future.

"Seven days in that dungeon must have been enough to make him suffer. I heard he could barely stand when he left."

Qian Renxue could not help but laugh when she heard what had happened in the dungeon.

It was good to teach him a proper lesson.

"Besides that, there is one more matter. Spirit Hall's Golden Generation has already arrived in Heaven Dou City and has been active at the Great Soul Arena. They have been unable to find you, so they are getting anxious."

Qian Renxue said.

"Could they really not find me?" Su Yu raised an eyebrow. "Sister, there's no need to hide it from me."

Qian Renxue shook her head. "As expected, I couldn't hide it from you. Yue Guan came by once before, but I sent him away with all sorts of excuses. If you want to see them, you can go to Spirit Hall's branch in Heaven Dou City. If you do not want to go, I can have them come here."

"I'll go see them."

Su Mu could not understand what Bibi Dong was truly thinking or what she was doing.

Could she really have some special plan?

No matter what, he bore the appearance of her dead teacher.

Memories of the dead were attacking Bibi Dong.

As the inheritor of the Rakshasa God Trial, she must have endured inhuman torment. Perhaps she wanted to find someone to vent her emotions on.

Qian Xunji had been directly devoured by Bibi Dong, so he surely had not had the chance to do anything he wanted.

So she had set her sights on him as an outlet.

Su Yu felt deeply troubled. Fortunately, he had helpers by his side, so he did not need to worry about such matters at all.

What he might need to worry about was how to turn the tables and teach Bibi Dong a lesson, making her completely give up on that idea.

Qian Renxue tapped the table three times with her fingers. "Xiao Yu, don't train too hard lately. Once I'm done with this stretch of work, I'll compete with you using my Angel Sword Technique. I guarantee I'll leave you thoroughly convinced."

"Sister, aren't you a little too confident?"

"Just wait and see. I was born so many years before you. Do you really think all those years of training were for nothing?"

Qian Renxue huffed, brimming with confidence.

She did not believe she could possibly lose to Su Yu.

If she really lost to Su Yu, she would be too embarrassed to face anyone.

Su Yu said nothing more and turned to leave Crown Prince Manor.

Just after leaving Crown Prince Manor, he ran into Yue Guan at a corner.

The two of them stared at each other in astonishment.

As someone who had assisted the Former Pope, Yue Guan was formally meeting Su Yu for the first time.

The Su Yu before him was no longer the little brat from six years ago.

He truly looked remarkably similar to the Pope from back then, practically identical.

How high-spirited Qian Xunji had been in those days—Yue Guan, as one of his closest aides, knew that better than anyone.

He did not know why the Pope was so fixated on Su Yu, as though she could not live without him.

This miserable assignment had been pressing down on him all along. As a subordinate, he had no choice.

"Elder Yue, you really are diligent and devoted. The Pope told you to come to Heaven Dou City, and you came right away!"

Su Yu looked at Yue Guan before him.

Su Yu's tone made it sound as if Qian Xunji had come back to life.

Yue Guan even felt the urge to kneel.

It was too terrifying.

That face carried far too much authority.

"What are you saying, Su Yu? I am merely carrying out orders."

Yue Guan replied calmly.

As a subordinate, did he really think Yue Guan had any room to resist?

Although these seven days had been quite comfortable, all he had done was visit once a day, chat with the young master, then return to the branch hall to rest.

He would never be able to make another breakthrough in this lifetime. Reaching rank ninety-six was probably nothing more than a dream.

Unless he could find a Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum suited to his Martial Soul, there was no hope for him in this life.

Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemums were inherently difficult to find.

He was also a figure from the previous era, yet after searching for decades, he had not found even the slightest clue.

He had seen Qian Daoliu step down, Qian Xunji take power, and later watched Tang Hao smash Qian Xunji to death with a single hammer. Now Bibi Dong held power.

With authority changing hands among so many people, he still had not found even the tiniest clue.

It was too difficult.

"So, what are you trying to do by coming every day to ask about me?"

Su Yu got straight to the point.

"Well, I truly wanted to ask about your cultivation level. The Soul Master Tournament will begin in the future, and as a member of the Spirit Hall Team, I need to understand your strength."

Yue Guan said with a smile.

Bibi Dong had only told him to gather information on Su Yu. As for why, he did not know.

Yue Guan had naturally not known Su Yu was here before, but after thinking it over, where else could he have gone besides the young master's place?

"So now that you know I'm here, you should be able to go back and report, right?" Su Yu said with a smile.

"Cough, cough. Well, Su Yu, I think I should stay for a few more days." Yue Guan spoke with a serious expression. "Think about it—if I go back too quickly without staying longer, the Pope will definitely make things difficult for me."

Yue Guan continued, "The Pope Palace and Worship Hall have never gotten along in the first place. Besides, I am only a minor elder with little say in anything. We have no direct conflict or dispute of interests, so there is no need for us to be at each other's throats."

That was the lesson Yue Guan had learned over the past few days.

"Elder Yue is quite open-minded."

Su Yu naturally would not make things difficult for Yue Guan.

Meanwhile, in a palace within the Pope Palace.

Gui Mei lay sprawled across a table, looking at dossiers piled higher than himself. He was on the verge of collapse.

"Yue Guan, I'll screw your monkey! You're simply not human."

Gui Mei was on the verge of tears.

"You left without even taking me with you. That was completely unbrotherly.

"You left me alone to deal with so many dossiers. His Holiness the Pope has gone into seclusion too. Now I'm all alone. This is too hard."

By the time Gui Mei heard that Yue Guan had left, half a day had already passed.

By then, it was too late for him to run away.

Left with no choice, Gui Mei took on all the dossiers.

Although a Titled Douluo was powerful enough to go without sleep, even a donkey would grow tired, let alone a person handling the same task for long periods.

"You'd better give me an explanation when you come back. Otherwise, you'd better learn why your Grandpa Turtle's fists are so hard!"

The scene shifted as Yue Guan finished speaking with Su Yu.

"Elder Yue, take me there. Since the Golden Generation has come, I'll meet them."

Yue Guan did not actually want to take Su Yu there. Word had already spread that the Golden Generation had been beaten into being the Golden Generation.

Those three youngsters had been rebuilding their confidence at the Great Soul Arena. Yue Guan did not want to destroy their confidence, but it seemed the matter was no longer up to him.

"Follow me," Yue Guan answered.

Yue Guan then led the way toward the branch hall.

At that moment, inside the branch hall's courtyard.

Yan had already won six consecutive matches and was about to face his seventh.

"Xie Yue, I think our previous loss to Su Yu was just an illusion. This time, I'll definitely win it back." Yan was brimming with confidence.

Xie Yue said, "Su Yu is no ordinary opponent. I do not even feel secure in my position as captain."

"I was careless last time. Next time, the three of us will attack together. We'll definitely win."

"Looks like your skin is itching again, Yan."

The sudden voice rang out, startling Yan into shuddering.

Could it be!!!
