"All right, let's talk business."
Bibi Dong gently pushed Lu Qian away and sat back down on the Pope's Throne.
Lu Qian chuckled and sat back down as well.
"Of the Seven Great Clans, those explicitly opposed to Spirit Hall's actions are the Nangong Family, the Zhu Family, the Han Family, and the Bibi Family!"
"The Bibi Family?"
Lu Qian looked at Bibi Dong in confusion.
Noticing his gaze, Bibi Dong sneered and said:
"What's so strange about that? The Bibi Family has always considered itself the foremost of the Seven Great Clans, so they have to consider every angle. To put it plainly, they won't allow Spirit Hall to grow powerful because they want to balance the power of the Seven Great Clans."
"Put simply, he doesn't want me to become empress of the Spirit Hall Empire."
Lu Qian seemed to understand a little.
"Master, they don't want unpredictable factors like you and me appearing, right? After all, once you really become empress of the Spirit Hall Empire, the entire continent will be in your hands. At that point, even the Seven Great Clans will have their misgivings."
"Exactly. That's what I mean. Spirit Hall's growing strength has already stirred their resistance, but since the Qian Family and I managed it together, they let it be. But now..."
Bibi Dong paused.
"Now I'm about to receive the Rakshasa God's inheritance, and my strength also ranks among the continent's greatest. How could they possibly rest easy?"
"That's the real reason they want to summon me back to the Bibi Family."
"Is the Bibi Family really that powerful?"
"Two gods in one clan. What do you think?"
"Even now?"
Lu Qian asked tentatively.
"No. The Bibi Family currently has only one God of Light. The Rakshasa God's inheritance is with me!"
