From Douluo Dalu to Queen

Chapter 225 Papal Decree

Emperor Xue Ye sighed. The thing he least wanted to see happened.

At this time, he was undoubtedly the one with the most difficult job to do. After all, before the game started, the referee had already said that the thing was a soul guide that could participate in the competition. If he favored Sarath, it would undoubtedly put his reputation on the line and give others the impression that he was afraid of the authority of the Spirit Hall, which would have a huge impact on the imperial power.

But if they side with Leng Xiyao, the Spirit Hall will definitely blame them afterwards, which will also have an adverse impact on the empire.

Now he had some understanding of the difficulties the Li family had faced before.

Fortunately, Leng Xiyao did not intend to make things difficult for Emperor Xue Ye, so she spoke first: "So, Bishop Sa wants to default on his debt, huh?"

"Defeating? It's a well-known fact that Shrek Academy cheated and used external forces to win the competition. Why should I distort the facts?" Saras waved his hand, seemingly standing on the side of morality, and spoke as if it were true.

"Really? Salas, you'd better think about what the crime of slandering the elders of the Spirit Hall is!" Leng Xiyao laughed playfully, and then took out the Pope's order that she had obtained from Liu Erlong before.

The moment she saw the token, Qian Renxue, who was hiding behind, knew it was all over.

The Pope's Order of the Spirit Hall is quite recognizable, because it carries a hint of the Pope's aura. Ordinary people may not be able to see it, but people inside the Spirit Hall can definitely see it.

This token was issued by Qian Xunji. It was originally given to Bibi Dong who had just become a saint, and then given to Yu Xiaogang as a souvenir. Now it is in Leng Xiyao's hands.

The moment Sarath saw the token, he was stunned.

The person holding the Pope's Order has the same status as the Spirit Hall elders. Even if he is a platinum bishop, he cannot disobey the orders of the person holding the Pope's Order. Once he disobeys, it would be a crime as serious as treason!

"Platinum Bishop Salas, I pay my respects to the elder." Salas bowed respectfully. Although he was reluctant, he dared not be arrogant anymore.

"Xiao Sarath, you just said that Shrek Academy violated the rules in this game?" Leng Xiyao stood up and patted Sarath's face with the Pope's Order in her hand. Her sarcastic tone was enough to make someone angry to death.

Sarath knew that after today, he, the platinum bishop, would no longer have any authority in Wuhun City. Such a huge mistake might even lead to his dismissal. However, the situation was stronger than he was, so he could only smile and say, "Of course not. I was blind and saw it wrong."

"Well, that's good. You know how to handle things." Leng Xiyao reached out and patted his shoulder. She was very satisfied with his attitude. If he could continue to go against her under pressure, it would be difficult to end it.

After all, she still overestimated Sarath.

Bishop Platinum is essentially just a close confidant of Bibi Dong, responsible for supervising Tiandou City and is deeply trusted.

Therefore, even if he lost the Wuhun branch hall of Tiandou City, as long as he was loyal to the Pope, even if he was demoted, at least his life would not be in danger.

But disobeying the Pope's order is a blatant challenge to the Pope's authority. Once Bibi Dong no longer trusts him, the people under him who covet his position will easily kill him.

It can be said that as long as Bibi Dong still trusts him, even if his position is demoted, his status and reputation in the Spirit Hall will not change, and with time, he can return to this position.

As for the loss of the branch temple's territory, other elders will naturally deal with it. Even if they have to give up some interests, it will definitely be preserved. What he has to do next is to return to the Spirit Hall and apologize to Bibi Dong.

What he didn't know was that the fake prince behind him had already sentenced him to death. Otherwise, even if it meant sacrificing the dignity of the Spirit Hall, he would have to fight to the end.

"Your Majesty, since Bishop Sa is willing to admit defeat, look." Leng Xiyao looked at Emperor Xue Ye and said with a smile.

"Of course." Emperor Xue Ye nodded, then handed over the land deed and two soul bones.

He didn't expect that Leng Xiyao could actually take out a Pope's Order, but no matter what, this matter had nothing to do with him. Even if the Spirit Hall was dissatisfied, it should go to Leng Xiyao and Sarath to settle the score. Who asked her to take out the Pope's Order?

Leng Xiyao took the deed and examined it carefully. After confirming that it had the Spirit Hall's Pope's seal and the autograph of an unknown previous Pope, she put it away with satisfaction.

However, even if she got the deed, Spirit Hall probably wouldn't let her take over so easily.

In fact, Leng Xiyao was not very interested in this piece of land. If the people from the Spirit Hall talked to her in a nice way and gave her some good things, she might return it. But if they forced her to return it,
Then don't blame her for causing trouble!

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Leng Xiyao had no plans to stay any longer. After saying goodbye to Emperor Xue Ye, she couldn't wait to walk down the stage.

Seeing Leng Xiyao leaving in a hurry, Sarath thought she was impatient to go to the Spirit Hall to cause trouble, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I will leave first."

After saying this, he left in a hurry without waiting for Emperor Xue Ye's response. He had to go back and make some arrangements to handle the matter as properly as possible.

Qian Renxue, who was sitting in the back, held a teacup and shook her little finger imperceptibly, as if she was giving some instructions.

"Lingling! Come with me!" Knowing that Tang San was seriously injured, Leng Xiyao did not return to the Shrek Academy's lounge, but went directly to the stands of Tiandou Royal Academy and found Ye Lingling.

Although the Tiandou Royal Academy Team 1 does not have to participate in the preliminaries and promotion matches, they still have to come and observe to understand the fighting styles of their future opponents in the finals.

Perhaps because Leng Xiyao had been sitting next to the Emperor recently, the leader of Tiandou Royal Academy did not dare to stop her. What's more, the girl was obviously acquainted with Ye Lingling.

"Okay." Ye Lingling saw Leng Xiyao coming to find her. How could she not know that it was for Tang San who was seriously injured on the stage earlier? So she didn't say much and quickly followed her.

When Leng Xiyao arrived, the atmosphere in the Shrek lounge was very solemn. A group of people surrounded Tang San in silence, except for Xiao Wu, who was lying on him sobbing, and Jiang Zhu, who was chanting some spell and talking about Tang San's injuries.

But the healing effect was not very good. Jiangzhu's healing staff could only treat external injuries. Severe internal injuries like broken ribs were beyond her ability to treat.

Seeing a group of people standing around just staring, Leng Xiyao quickly shouted, "Everyone, get out of the way. I've got Ye Lingling here. She will definitely be able to cure Tang San!"

When the people who were worrying about it heard this, they quickly made way.
