Golden Crocodile listened to these descriptions.
His head buzzed.
Another voice rang out in the hall.
"We should also add young and valiant, daring to battle evil and speak out against injustice."
"Not only will we not hold him accountable."
"We should instead appoint him Holy Son, demonstrating Spirit Hall's magnanimity as the Spirit Hall of all Soul Masters under heaven."
Azure Luan Douluo strode over.
His tone was gentle and calm.
Qian Daoliu nodded slightly.
"Indeed."
"That way."
"The Soul Masters of the world will only say that the current Papal Deacon is muddleheaded and immoral, not that Spirit Hall is muddleheaded and immoral. However, appointing a Holy Son is not for us to decide. First, build momentum, then open Douluo Hall. When necessary, take extraordinary measures."
Golden Crocodile watched the two sing in harmony.
From their words, it sounded as though they had already privately settled on the next Papal Deacon.
Yet he could not find the slightest grounds to object.
A Papal Deacon of common birth who had achieved so much through his own efforts would indeed more easily win the admiration of commoner Soul Masters across the world. One could even say he would easily gain a following of fanatical believers.
"At that point, we can invoke the Angel God's name and say that he is the one she has chosen."
"Even a commoner has the chance to become Papal Deacon."
"Then the Papal Deacon will truly become the god's representative."
"Wouldn't that be perfect?"
Azure Luan spread his hands.
Though the two had not exchanged a word about it,
the moment their eyes met, a plan had already formed in their minds.
"Wait! Wait!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo was having trouble keeping up.
"What if Xiao Xue can't keep pace with this boy in the future?"
