"Father, I don't understand!"
"Why would you hand over the Pope to someone else? It's the prestigious position held by the Qian Family, a position Qian Family control."
After Meng Qianqiu left, Qian Xunji emerged from behind the Pope Hall. He couldn't understand why Qian Daoliu had done this. Could it be that Qian Daoliu was also afraid?
" The Pope?"
"It's just a little bit of power!"
"Child, you need to understand one thing!"
"As long as you have enough power, even if you are not the Pope, your words still carry the weight of the Pope's decrees."
"This isn't something you can achieve just by reaching this position. Ultimately, in the Soul Master World, strength is still paramount."
"As long as I'm alive, the Qian Family's legacy will never end. As for the honor of Pope of the Spirit Hall, so be it!"
"You should know that a single position can be exchanged for the friendship of Five Great Hidden Families, plus the Fire Leopard Sect and the Exotic Beast Academy."
"To be honest, this deal is a great bargain!"
"Not to mention, this boy possesses the potential of Limit Douluo, and has two Titled Douluo behind him. His momentum is unstoppable."
"Looking across the entire continent, I'm afraid only Golden Crocodile, Tang Chen, and I can overpower that old toad Meng Zhongqi."
"If we provoke him too much, even our Spirit Hall might not fare well. The Meng Family can only try to win him over; we must not make him our enemy."
"From now on, you can focus on your cultivation!"
"Once you cultivate to the level of Titled Douluo, I will, by the decree of the Pope, appoint you as the Law Enforcement Elder of the Spirit Hall, giving you command of our Qian Family's Angel Demon-Extermination Legion."
"With this legion at your disposal, even if you don't become the Pope, you can still roam freely within the Spirit Hall and become Law Enforcement Elder. This is a good way out for you!"
With deep love comes strict discipline. Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Xunji and had already planned a way out for him in his heart. This was a good job with high authority, almost second only to the Pope.
"Hmph, Law Enforcement Elder!"
"That sounds nice, but I still want to compete for the Pope again. The position of Law Enforcement Elder is desirable, but how can it compare to the nobility of the Pope!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Xunji couldn't help but feel somewhat disheartened.
The Law Enforcement Elder of the Spirit Hall, who is also the commander of the Angel Demon-Extermination Legion, is stronger than all the other elders and his authority is second only to the Pope. He is the kind of person who obeys orders but not summons.
The commander of the Angel Legion is a direct descendant of the Qian Family family, and he only obeys the ruler of the Angel lineage. Even if the Pope were to visit, he would have to give him some face, and his status is second only to the Pope.
"Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown."
"Kid, you're still young. The people in your team all have good potential. Nurture them well, and you'll definitely achieve great things in the future. Remember to win them over!"
"A hero needs three helpers, and a fence needs three posts."
"If you don't have anyone under your command, even if you rise to a high position in the future, you won't be able to make a difference on your own, and you probably won't amount to anything."
Qian Daoliu shook his head. It was good that Qian Xunji wanted to compete; it would be a good opportunity for him to know that there are always people more capable than oneself.
Qian Daoliu didn't say that Law Enforcement Elder of the Spirit Hall, the legion commander of the Angel Legion, and also the Hidden Crown Prince of the Spirit Hall.
If a change occurs in the Pope, the Law Enforcement Elder can seize the opportunity to become the true Pope; this is also known as the Black Angel.
Of course, this situation is extremely rare.
However, this was also a hidden move planted by the Qian Daoliu. After all, the Qian Family has a history of tens of thousands of years, and there are countless hidden moves among them.
Meanwhile, Spirit City!
" Qian Xunji, this time, you've lost."
"Leveraging its strength and influence, and relying on its reputation and potential, Qian Daoliu ultimately chose to win them over rather than take a forceful action."
"The timing of this move was impeccable; at this point, Qian Daoliu was somewhat hesitant to act rashly."
Meng Qianqiu's eyes darted around. This time, his strong rise to power was due to his absolute and overwhelming strength in breaking the deadlock.
He can seize the moral high ground if he defeats Qian Xunji.
This is the absolute advantage brought by strength. As Qian Daoliu said, this world ultimately believes in the supremacy of strength.
Might makes right!
As a theoretical Soul Master, Meng Qianqiu also harbors a great secret, and his reputation has spread throughout the entire continent recently.
His theoretical school of thought, through the Meng Family's connections and the influence of the Exotic Beast Academy, has spread far and wide.
The cultivation system pioneered by Meng Qianqiu is at least ten thousand years ahead of this era. With the help of purple Potential Potion, many Soul Master ' second Soul Ring have reached the thousand-year level.
One person's kindness benefits the whole world!
Reputation may be just an empty title when you lack real strength, but Meng Qianqiu is no pushover.
He is not only a Quasi-Soul Emperor, but also backed by the Meng Family, the Exotic Beast Academy, and even the Spirit Hall.
With fame, strength, righteousness, and potential, coupled with this powerful momentum, Meng Qianqiu was able to ascend to the throne as he wished.
This time, everything was in place – the right time, the right place, and the right people. All three conditions were met. Even if Qian Xunji had a cheat code, he still wouldn't be able to get the position of Holy Son of the Spirit Hall. It can only be said that he had planned everything perfectly.
"Young Master!"
"According to intelligence, there's a spy sent by Qian Xunji in our team. You'd better be careful!"
Yue Guan came to Meng Qianqiu's side and whispered to him.
Yue Guan is meticulous and never makes a mistake in anything he does, so he also serves as the intelligence officer in the team.
I already knew about this.
"I only revealed a portion of my abilities to the three who joined later, using it to lure out the spies lying in ambush within the team."
"I am well aware of Qian Xunji's methods."
"I also have spies planted within his ranks, and I already know who they are."
Meng Qianqiu looked at Yue Guan and immediately spoke.
" Xu Qianqian?!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Guan voiced her own guess: among the three, Xu Qianqian was undoubtedly the most suspicious.
"Yes, it's her!"
" Xu Qianqian is a descendant of the Star Crown Sect."
"Although she's not very strong, she's exactly the kind of Support System Soul Master our team is lacking, so this is undoubtedly an opportunity."
"However, she still has a great use for us right now!"
"We'll settle things after the team competition. My stuff won't be so easy to take!"
Meng Qianqiu spoke in Youyou voice. Among the three people behind him, Ling Yuan and She Long had relatively clean backgrounds and were not too complicated.
After a thorough investigation, it didn't cause much of a stir.
If these three were truly sincere in their allegiance, given Meng Qianqiu's influence, he would probably have already sent them Immortal Herb to solidify their foundation.
Now, two years later, Meng Qianqiu has long since figured out who has ulterior motives, and it can only be said that Xu Qianqian is the most suspicious.
Ling Yuan and She Long are relatively less likely to succeed, but they haven't completely withstood the test either.
