After stepping through the gates of Douluo Hall, Bibi Dong's gaze fell upon the Six-winged Angel Statue standing in the center of the hall, as well as the golden-haired middle-aged man beneath it.

Ever since accepting the Rakshasa God's trial, she had become far more sensitive to the aura of the Six-winged Angel. This Angel Statue before her actually contained the Angel God's Divine Power!

Qian Daoliu, no wonder you have always been so fearless. So you can draw upon the Angel God's Divine Power. I truly underestimated you, Bibi Dong thought as she withdrew her gaze.

"Bibi Dong, ever since you became the Spirit Hall's Pope, you have never once set foot in the Douluo Hall under my charge. Since you dislike this place, why force yourself to come?"

Upon seeing Bibi Dong enter, Qian Daoliu took a single step forward. Golden light flowed around him, and in an instant, he arrived before her.

"It has been a while, Great Elder." Looking at the man before her, Bibi Dong said calmly, "I came today merely to remind you that Tang Hao, who severely injured your son and escaped afterward, now has a child as well."

Qian Daoliu was slightly taken aback. Then, as though recalling something, he said indifferently, "Tang Hao did indeed have a child when he fled back then. What? Did you come to see me over this matter?"

After saying that, Qian Daoliu looked at Bibi Dong with some confusion, unable to understand her purpose in coming here.

"Hehe, Great Elder, you should take a look at this first." With a wave of her jade-like hand, a file recording the backgrounds of the Tang Family father and son landed in Qian Daoliu's hand. It contained the useful information Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan had gathered.

Qian Daoliu carefully read the information recorded in the file. When his eyes fell upon the words at the bottom—suspected Twin Martial Souls, Blue Silver Grass bloodline not awakened—his normally impassive face gained a trace of gravity.

"Tang San, martial soul Blue Silver Grass, Innate Full Soul Power. His father is Tang Hao. He arrived at Sacred Soul Village six years ago and is suspected to possess Twin Martial Souls. What? You intend to eliminate a six-year-old child?" Qian Daoliu chuckled.

"Great Elder truly thinks exactly as I do." A glint flashed through Bibi Dong's eyes as she said blandly, "I cannot allow a Twin Martial Souls genius carrying a blood-deep grudge against Spirit Hall to grow up. Given that madman Tang Hao's temperament, once his son rises to prominence, he will surely find a way to overthrow Spirit Hall. By then, even the Great Elder would find it troublesome, wouldn't you?"

"So this is what you came to Douluo Hall to tell me?" Qian Daoliu turned around calmly, his back facing Bibi Dong as he raised his head to look at the Angel Statue before him. "Since you wish to eliminate him, why tell me? What, can your Papal Palace no longer handle even a six-year-old child?"

"Or are you afraid of Tang Hao and have come to me because you cannot think of a solution?"

"The Great Elder truly cares for all under heaven." Bibi Dong sneered. "There is no direct enmity between Tang Hao and me. I came to Douluo Hall only to kindly remind the Great Elder. Since you have no intention of acting, I shall take my leave first."

With that, Bibi Dong did not linger in Douluo Hall and turned to walk outside.

Since that old man Qian Daoliu was not in a hurry to kill Tang San, then as Pope, she naturally had no reason to rush either. Once she completely finished the Rakshasa God's trials, who on Douluo Continent could stop her?

Qian Daoliu? Tang Hao? Or Tang San, who might die in an accident at any time?

Bibi Dong was extremely confident about becoming a god. She did not believe that a six-year-old child could gain the ability to overthrow Spirit Hall before she completed the Rakshasa God's trials.

"Bibi Dong, you are right. There is no direct enmity between you and Tang Hao, but in a sense, you should be thanking Tang Hao instead." Just as Bibi Dong was about to step out of Douluo Hall, Qian Daoliu suddenly spoke, his words incomparably cold.

"Thank you for the reminder, Great Elder." Hearing this, Bibi Dong paused slightly and turned partway, revealing her exquisite profile. She said mockingly, "After all, it was not my son who died, was it?"

As her words fell, Bibi Dong revealed a smile that sent chills down one's spine, then left without looking back.

"Big Brother, this woman is too arrogant!" Seeing Bibi Dong provoke Qian Daoliu so blatantly, Golden Crocodile Douluo immediately shouted coldly.

"Second Brother, let her be." Qian Daoliu looked at the furious Golden Crocodile Douluo and said evenly, "She is merely winning a few verbal exchanges. There is no need to mind it."

Hearing this, Golden Crocodile Douluo could not help but sigh before closing his mouth and saying nothing more.

How could Qian Daoliu possibly fail to understand Bibi Dong's words before she left?

Back then, Tang Hao had merely severely wounded Qian Xunji. Bibi Dong had been the true murderer. If not for the fact that Bibi Dong was Qian Renxue's mother, Bibi Dong would likely have long since died beneath his Angel Sacred Sword.

Without her relationship as Qian Renxue's mother, what use would Bibi Dong's talent be, no matter how exceptional? Lead Spirit Hall farther? What a joke. The Qian Family no longer even had a legitimate descendant; what use did they have for Spirit Hall?

It was precisely because of Qian Renxue that Qian Daoliu had turned a blind eye to Bibi Dong's actions. In the end, it would only serve as a wedding dress for Qian Renxue anyway.

As for the Tang Family father and son, what did Tang San, a Twin Martial Souls genius, amount to in Qian Daoliu's eyes? If he wished, he could crush them like ants with the movement of a finger. Did a giant need to care about insects he could casually crush?

Yet Bibi Dong's behavior today had made him sense a hint of threat.

As the Angel God's servant, Qian Daoliu could clearly sense an evil aura within Bibi Dong. It was a presence opposed to the Angel God. It seemed she had already become the trial inheritor of some evil deity.

Qian Renxue had yet to mature. Even Qian Daoliu did not dare guarantee that, in the future, Qian Renxue would be acknowledged by the Angel God and receive the Angel Nine Trials to inherit the Angel God's divine position.

Before knowing Qian Renxue's future possibilities, he could not touch Bibi Dong yet, because Spirit Hall still needed someone to lead it. But once Qian Renxue's future was confirmed, the position of Pope of Spirit Hall could only belong to Qian Renxue, as could control over Spirit Hall.

Bibi Dong's existence was merely that of a tool for Qian Renxue to inherit Spirit Hall. From beginning to end, Spirit Hall belonged to the Qian Family. Even in the future, Spirit Hall could only bear the Qian name.

"Bibi Dong, you wanted to borrow my hand to kill the Tang Family father and son, but have you considered this? If I can allow you to grow, why would I not allow a second Twin Martial Souls genius to grow as well?"

"It is rather laughable. You hate Xiao Xue, and in order to keep her out of your sight, you even spared no effort in making her waste precious cultivation time to infiltrate the Heaven Dou Empire."

"But you would never have imagined that the reason she agreed to infiltrate the Heaven Dou Empire was because she wanted to prove to you, her mother, that she was not as useless as you believed. Everything she did was only to gain your approval."

"Yet sadly, everything Xiao Xue worked so hard to do never entered your eyes. Since that is the case, then as her grandfather, I should avenge my granddaughter against you, shouldn't I?"

After Bibi Dong's aura could no longer be sensed, Qian Daoliu gazed meaningfully up at the ten-meter-tall Angel Statue, faint golden flames burning in his eyes.

For Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu was capable of anything. Not to mention one Spirit Hall—even if Spirit Hall were destroyed, what would it matter, so long as Qian Renxue gained the qualification to become a god?

Once she became a deity, no one on Douluo Continent would be able to stop Spirit Hall's advance again!
