You Won't Be Pope Any Longer! Then I Won't Be.

The moment Luo Xuan's name was mentioned, everyone present looked at one another.

Aside from the astonished Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo, none of them had heard the name before.

He was probably no remarkable youngster.

Still, since Bibi Dong had brought him up, Qian Daoliu asked about him.

"What is the age of this Luo Xuan you speak of? What is his Innate Soul Power? Not just anyone can become Spirit Hall's Holy Son."

The other elders also echoed Grand Worshiper Qian Daoliu.

As Spirit Hall's Holy Son, one needed at least Rank Nine Innate Soul Power. Otherwise, how could one be worthy of the title?

Did Spirit Hall not care about its reputation?

Bibi Dong paid no mind to their reactions. They were perfectly normal, though a playful smile still appeared on her face.

She looked at everyone and slowly said, "Luo Xuan awakened his Martial Soul only a few months ago. His Innate Soul Power was Rank Three."

Strange looks immediately fell upon Bibi Dong.

It had been many years since this group of elders had heard of anyone with Rank Three Innate Soul Power.

And now she wanted someone like that to become the Holy Son?

Were you really still Spirit Hall's Pope? Or were you an undercover agent sent by the enemy?

Golden Crocodile Douluo's face darkened as he stared at Bibi Dong. "Bibi Dong, are you trying to turn Spirit Hall into the laughingstock of the Douluo Continent? Rank Three Soul Power? You actually have the nerve to say it!"

"Bibi Dong, do not bring this matter up again. Talent like this would only disgrace Spirit Hall."

Qian Daoliu was equally displeased. Usually, he turned a blind eye to her little schemes.

But when it concerned Spirit Hall's reputation, he would not allow Bibi Dong to do as she pleased.

What Luo Xuan? Spirit Hall's willingness to nurture him was already a blessing from his ancestors.

Who knew how he had latched onto Bibi Dong? He even wanted to become the Holy Son. What wishful thinking.

Hearing the whispers all around them, Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo immediately became displeased. Their kid wasn't eating your food, so why were you mocking him like this?

They wished they could reveal Xiao Xuan's current Soul Power right away and let these short-sighted fools see what a true genius was!

Bibi Dong's expression turned stern. She swept her gaze across the crowd, slammed her scepter heavily against the floor, and said coldly, "He is this Pope's disciple. If any of you dare speak nonsense again, do not blame me for showing no mercy."

She did not even dare mock Luo Xuan like that in front of him. How did they dare?

The moment she thought of Luo Xuan's current Soul Power Level, Bibi Dong's mood improved again, and the corners of her lips rose.

"Aren't you curious about his current Soul Power Level?"

"Curious? Curious my ass. With that talent, he probably hasn't even improved half a rank in a few months."

"Exactly. If someone like him became the Holy Son, which of our juniors wouldn't be better than him?"

"Luo Xuan isn't fit to become the Holy Son! I said so."

"..."

They all suspected that Bibi Dong had a particular fondness for people with poor Soul Power and bad talent.

But no matter what, they would never agree to let Luo Xuan become the Holy Son.

Not even the Pope could go against so many elders.

Their words did not stir Bibi Dong's heart in the slightest.

"What if I told you his Soul Power has now reached Rank 20?"

"What kind of joke is this, Bibi Dong? Even if you desperately want him to become the Holy Son, there's no need to tell such a stupid lie! This old man may be old, but I'm not a fool!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo stared at Bibi Dong with blatant mockery.

Of all the elders present, if even one believed Bibi Dong's words, he would laugh at them for the rest of his life.

"Your Holiness, Xiao Xuan really is Rank 20! That's wonderful!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo turned around in disbelief. Someone actually believed her?

The veins on his forehead bulged. He wanted to see who it was! Who dared oppose him?

Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo stood there with pride written all over their faces, as though they themselves had broken through Rank 95.

The elders also turned around one after another. Whose subordinate was so valiant?

Oh, it was the Pope's two trusted generals. Never mind, then.

"Yes. Xiao Xuan happened to break through today when he defeated Yan."

Golden Crocodile was enraged. Bibi Dong and her subordinates were joining forces to toy with them!

Just as he was about to speak, Qian Daoliu stopped Golden Crocodile Douluo.

"Big Brother..."

"Second Brother, we'll know once we summon Luo Xuan here. There is no need to argue with Bibi Dong. What sort of conduct is this? Besides... it may not be false."

This lie was far too easy to expose. There was no reason for that woman Bibi Dong to lie.

The Grand Worshiper's words truly carried more weight than Bibi Dong's.

Almost everyone believed Qian Daoliu's words.

Seeing this, Bibi Dong's mood soured. Even her grip around the scepter tightened.

"Fine, fine. Don't you all listen to him? Then I quit!"

Whoever wanted this damned job could have it.

While Qian Daoliu pondered why Luo Xuan had changed so drastically, he sensed a wave of malice.

It seemed someone wanted to send this retired old man back to work. What sinister intentions!

Though he could not locate the source of that malice, he confirmed the reason for Luo Xuan's transformation.

"The boy Bibi Dong mentioned is likely also a Divine Trial participant."

He had to admit that Bibi Dong's luck was truly good.

Not long after.

A bewildered Luo Xuan was brought to Pope Hall by Ghost Douluo.

Ghost Douluo had not said anything along the way. The instant Luo Xuan arrived at Pope Hall, he saw this entire group of Titled Douluo.

Where the hell had he been brought? Was this still Pope Hall?

This was Pope Hall wearing the skin of Elder Hall!

Even with so many Titled Douluo present, Luo Xuan did not falter.

He politely cupped his hands toward them. "Greetings, Your Holiness. Greetings, esteemed elders."

At those words, a radiant smile appeared on Bibi Dong's beautiful face.

She was happy, but the elders were not.

What, were this group of elders inferior to Bibi Dong?

Why had he greeted Bibi Dong first?

Golden Crocodile Douluo was the most displeased. In his eyes, all of Spirit Hall belonged to the Qian Family.

If Luo Xuan was going to pay respects, he should have greeted his big brother, Qian Daoliu, first.

Just as he prepared to give Luo Xuan a show of force, Bibi Dong noticed.

She said coldly, "Xiao Xuan belongs to this Pope!"

Her Soul Power surged mercilessly toward Golden Crocodile. Even with Qian Daoliu present, she did not hold back.

After being provoked time and again, Qian Daoliu finally became somewhat angry.

The aura of a Peerless Douluo erupted from his body, no weaker than Bibi Dong's, blocking her Soul Power.

"Bibi Dong! Don't go too far!"

"Too far? Old man, it was your people who first attacked Xiao Xuan without any sense of honor." Bibi Dong stared at Qian Daoliu, her eyes flickering with an unreadable light.

"You can forget about remaining Pope!" Golden Crocodile Douluo erupted. It had been years since he had lost so much face.

Elder Hall had the authority to impeach the Pope!

"Fine. I won't be Pope anymore."

Huh?

The elders looked at Bibi Dong as if they had heard the greatest joke in the world, blinking their eyes.

Those words had come from Bibi Dong's mouth. Was... was that right?

Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile Douluo were both stunned.

They had often used the position of Pope to keep Bibi Dong in check.

They each had their own calculations, but in the end, Bibi Dong would always take a step back for the sake of the Pope's position.

Luo Xuan, who had only recently arrived and was being protected by Bibi Dong, felt conflicted.

How should he put it? Everyone hated someone blinded by love, but when that person was devoted to you, it felt absolutely wonderful.

Though Bibi Dong did not have those feelings for him yet.

"No wonder so many people want to skip twenty years of struggling. Rich older women are just too irresistible."

Qian Daoliu came back to his senses and solemnly looked at Bibi Dong. "Are you serious?"

"Of course. I'm giving this position back to you. I quit!"

Whoever wanted this damned job could have it.

No matter what, she had made up her mind. She had to get the truth from Yu Xiaogang.

However, she still had to fight for what she deserved.

"This Pope wants the positions of Holy Son and Holy Maiden. If that truly won't work, then add a hidden Holy Maiden."

They all knew whom the hidden Holy Maiden referred to.

Seeing Bibi Dong yield so much, Qian Daoliu felt that it was not impossible.

"Fine, on the condition that your disciple's talent is truly worthy."

His gaze fell upon Luo Xuan.
