"How dare you! Who dares break into the Nether Duke's Mansion of our Star Luo Empire and abduct someone?"
"You up there, do your nine generations of kin come wholesale? Who gave you the nerve?"
"Let me tell you..."
Seeing his fiancée abducted into midair,
Dai Weisi instantly flew into a humiliated rage!
He tilted his head back and began pointing accusingly at Bibi Dong!
Before he could finish speaking, however, the empress beside him, Zhu Tiancai, sent him flying with a slap.
Others might not recognize the face of the powerhouse in the sky, but how could she, the Star Luo Empress, fail to recognize her?
On the Douluo Continent, powerful female Soul Masters were already far fewer than their male counterparts,
and as a Hell Spirit Cat wielder with Soul Douluo cultivation,
she had always worshipped Bibi Dong, the Pope of Spirit Hall, as her idol.
Besides, the other woman was not a flight-type Soul Master, yet she could walk through the air so effortlessly,
and coupled with the terrifying pressure she had unconsciously released just now,
was there any need to guess what level His Holiness the Pope's cultivation had reached?
"Your Holiness, please calm your anger. My ignorant son has offended you."
"Please do not stoop to his level."
"But might I ask what brings Your Holiness here today to take Zhu Yun away?
"If our Star Luo Imperial Family or the Nether Zhu Family has offended you in any way,
"please feel free to tell us, Your Holiness. We will certainly offer compensation that satisfies you."
The Pope?
The Pope of Spirit Hall?
Sprawled on the ground, Dai Weisi's eyes instantly cleared.
For a moment, why did he feel as though he was a little about to die?
In the sky, Bibi Dong held Zhu Zhuyun in one hand and lowered her eyes toward Zhu Tiancai, who was frantically apologizing below. A faint, almost imperceptible smile touched her lips.
"Empress, you speak too gravely. I merely feel that this girl and I share a fated connection and wish to take her as my disciple. Surely you have no objections?"
Hearing this, Dai Weisi immediately grew anxious. How could that be allowed?
Zhu Zhuyun was his Martial Soul Fusion Skill accessory.
If Pope Bibi Dong took her away just like this,
how was he supposed to contend for the position of crown prince in the future?
By relying on Zhu Zhuqing beside him?
Taking in her six-year-old appearance and the clear stupidity in her eyes,
Dai Weisi's suspended heart finally died altogether.
By contrast, Dai Mubai could not conceal the delighted surprise in his eyes no matter how he tried.
My foolish elder brother, even you have a day like this!!!
Without his sister-in-law, who still retained her charms, helping him,
what would his brother have left to compete with him for the position of crown prince of the Star Luo Empire?
Just as Dai Weisi was about to get up and argue,
Zhu Tiancai reacted swiftly and forcibly dragged him away.
What a joke! Did he really think His Holiness the Pope had no temper?
Even if their emperor and empress joined forces here and fused into the Hell White Tiger, they would certainly not last a single exchange against His Holiness the Pope before them!
"Your Holiness, might this be somewhat inappropriate?"
Zhu Tiancai steeled herself and spoke.
"Surely Your Holiness knows the rules our Star Luo Imperial Family has followed for generations. This really is somewhat..."
Before she finished, a terrifying surge of Soul Power pressure erupted from Bibi Dong once more, instantly forcing everyone present to their knees.
"Zhu Tiancai, it was out of respect for your position as empress of the Star Luo Empire that I spoke so politely to you just now.
"But if you refuse to appreciate my kindness, I also know a little about using my fists!"
As she spoke, Bibi Dong slowly descended, looking down from above at everyone forced to their knees.
At the thought that her beloved disciple had endured so many hardships in his youth because of these people from the Star Luo Imperial Family,
Bibi Dong could well be said to have the urge to kill them on the spot!
However, she had sounded out her beloved disciple before. Jiang Huai hoped to take revenge with his own hands in the future, so as his teacher, she could hardly take over his role.
After a brief moment of silence, everyone kneeling on the ground soon reached a consensus in their hearts.
As the saying went, a wise man recognized the tides of the times. Under the circumstances, they could only make Dai Weisi suffer a little more.
Immediately, both Zhu Tiancai, the Star Luo Empress, and Zhu Tiancai, the Nether Grand Duke, changed their tune, declaring that becoming Pope Bibi Dong's disciple was the greatest fortune of Zhu Zhuyun's life!
"Very good. As the price for that good-for-nothing's insolent words to me just now, Your Majesty, hand over the insights your Zhu Family and the Dai Family have accumulated over generations of cultivating the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
"Then I can treat today's events as though they never happened."
Hmm?
The cultivation insights for the Hell White Tiger?
The brother and sister exchanged a somewhat strange look.
Even if Spirit Hall had prodigies capable of using Martial Soul Fusion Skills,
taking their Hell White Tiger cultivation insights would still be useless, wouldn't it?
There might be common ground between different Martial Soul Fusion Skills, but they absolutely could not be copied wholesale.
The Hell White Tiger cultivation insights might have some value as a reference for Spirit Hall, but not much.
Besides, now that Bibi Dong had personally asked, neither of them dared hold anything back.
Zhu Tiancai immediately took an exquisite little booklet from her Storage Soul Tool and respectfully presented it to Bibi Dong with both hands.
"Good. From this day onward, this girl, Zhu Zhuyun, has nothing more to do with either your Zhu Family or the Dai Family. Do you understand?"
With things stated so plainly, and those nine terrifying Soul Rings arrayed so dazzlingly beneath Bibi Dong's feet, how could anyone present dare say no?
Everyone lowered their heads and declared that all that mattered was His Holiness the Pope's happiness.
"Let's go, girl. Someone is waiting for you in Spirit City."
Bibi Dong raised her hand and gently pinched the cheek of Zhu Zhuyun, who had clearly been frightened out of her wits, then rose into the air and flew straight toward Spirit City.
Only after Dongzi's figure vanished completely beyond the horizon did the oppressive atmosphere finally ease.
By now, Dai Weisi's eyes were bloodshot. He declared that he had never suffered such humiliation in his entire life!
"Mother, just what is Spirit Hall trying to do? A pope actually came all the way into the heart of our Star Luo Empire and forcibly took away the princely consort of the eldest prince! This is utterly outrageous!"
"Mother, you must have Father uphold justice for your son!"
Hearing her eldest son's cries, Zhu Tiancai felt a headache coming on.
Go to war with Spirit Hall over a girl?
Never mind the current situation-even if Dai Tianfeng agreed on impulse, the ministers at court and the clan elders of the White Tiger Dai Family would never agree!
