Arriving at the Papal Palace
Gui Mei led Xiao Xiao into the Papal Palace.
The first thing he saw was Bibi Dong seated in the Pope's throne, her eyes closed as she rested.
Gui Mei dropped to one knee and said respectfully, "Your Holiness, I have brought the boy!"
Bibi Dong slowly opened her beautiful eyes.
This little fellow's calm, neither servile nor overbearing attitude alone was beyond comparison with anyone else.
In any case, the more Bibi Dong looked at Xiao Xiao, the more satisfied she became.
Her gaze never left Xiao Xiao as she said faintly to Gui Mei, "Mm, you may leave. Yue Guan, you too."
"Yes, Your Holiness." Ju Hua Guan and Gui Mei replied in unison before leaving the Papal Palace.
Only after Ju Hua Guan and Gui Mei had left did Bibi Dong speak to Xiao Xiao. "You are Xiao Xiao?"
Xiao Xiao gave a slight nod and answered neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Yes, Your Holiness. I am Xiao Xiao."
"Not bad. As expected of a genius with Innate Level 90 Spirit Power!" A rare hint of a smile appeared on Bibi Dong's face.
This icy beauty, Bibi Dong, could actually smile! It was truly a rare sight in the world!
Xiao Xiao said modestly, "You flatter me, Your Holiness!"
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Bibi Dong could not help but ask, "Xiao Xiao, are you willing to become my, Bibi Dong's, disciple?"
Xiao Xiao froze for a moment.
Seriously? She wants to take me as her disciple right away?
Should I agree?
The two remained silent for a long time. Just as Bibi Dong was about to abandon the idea, Xiao Xiao spoke. "I am willing!"
Bibi Dong was slightly stunned, then quickly composed herself. "Good!"
She then took out three Soul Bones from her Soul Tool, one of which was as old as ninety thousand years!
"These three Soul Bones are for you. You should know why, so I will not say more." Bibi Dong's expression did not change.
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"Yue Guan!" Bibi Dong called.
Ju Hua Guan walked in. "Your Holiness."
Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes turned slightly toward the Chrysanthemum Douluo. "Take Xiao Xiao to meet Nana and the others so they can get acquainted."
"As you command, Your Holiness." Though Ju Hua Guan was somewhat unwilling, there was nothing he could do. The Pope's gaze alone seemed capable of killing him.
Where Hu Liena and the other two were
A delicate, young-looking little girl said to a handsome little boy, "Brother, I heard from Grandpa Gui that an incredible genius has arrived at the Papal Palace!"
This little girl was Hu Liena, one of the two current Holy Maidens of Spirit Hall! The handsome little boy she called "Brother" was her biological older brother, Xie Yue. There was also Yan, a little boy of rather unimpressive appearance whom the siblings ignored on a daily basis.
A somewhat effeminate voice rang out. "Xie Yue, Hu Liena, Yan."
Hu Liena smiled toward the source of the voice. "Grandpa Ju!"
Ju Hua Guan nodded, then looked at Xiao Xiao. "This boy is Xiao Xiao, the genius you were talking about."
Xiao Xiao smiled amiably and said to Xie Yue and the other two, "Hello."
Spirit Hall's Golden Generation. They seemed pretty decent so far.
Ju Hua Guan let out a sigh of relief.
After all, not every Titled Douluo would speak so pleasantly to children.
Of course, one reason might have been that he was a child himself.
Hu Liena looked at Xiao Xiao, her face flushing slightly.
This boy is so handsome!
"H-Hello! My name is Hu Liena. This is my brother, Xie Yue, and that ugly one is Yan." Hu Liena could barely speak clearly.
"The ugly one."
"The ugly one."
"Ugly."
Those words kept echoing in Yan's ears. He felt as if his whole being had shattered, while Xie Yue struggled to hold back his laughter beside him.
Yan refused to believe his own ears. This brat must have put some kind of ** on Nana!
Yes, that had to be it!
Xiao Xiao did not mind Hu Liena's flustered state and said gently, "Hello, Hu Liena!"
Ju Hua Guan finally relaxed.
