Douluo Continent: Ultimate Sea God Dragon, Inheriting Two Godhoods
Chapter 22 The Conflict in the Douluo Palace
Martial Soul City, Douluo Hall.
Surrounded by golden plaques, a colossal six-winged angel statue, exuding an aura of holiness, sits in the center of the hall.
In front of the statue stood seven distinct figures, each emanating an aura far beyond that of ordinary titles. The elder at the head seemed to resonate with the statue, as if they were one with the heavens.
They are the seven elders of the Spirit Hall.
The strongest one is none other than Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu!
As the world's top experts, the seven elders of the Spirit Hall have little worldly desire.
For them, besides the strength of the Spirit Hall and the inheritance of the Angel God, there is only the desire to improve their cultivation and seek further breakthroughs.
Therefore, the seven of them basically stayed indoors, focusing on meditation and ascetic cultivation, and the Douluo Hall was usually very quiet.
But today seems a little different…
The usually dignified Qian Daoliu was no longer serious; instead, he held a letter and smiled. However, as his longtime companions, the other retainers could sense his worry.
It seems that this concern is quite significant!
Not daring to act presumptuously in front of Golden Crocodile Douluo, the other elders could only subtly express their feelings to Azure Phoenix Douluo, who ranked third.
"Big brother, is this a letter from Xiaoxue?" Cursing under his breath at these guys for being disloyal, Qingluan Douluo could only try to find out for himself.
Could it be that Xiaoxue suffered some injustice in the Heaven Dou Empire?
Sigh—we didn't agree with her going undercover in the first place.
"Yes, it's a letter from Xiaoxue."
Qian Daoliu looked up and saw the gazes of the five elders. He then glanced back at Golden Crocodile Douluo and realized what they were thinking.
He handed over the letter.
"Since you're curious, let's take a look at them all."
A gentle light flickered in Qian Daoliu's eyes. "This time, Xiaoxue didn't mention the Heavenly Battle in her letter, but rather us old guys. At first, I didn't even believe that Xiaoxue wrote it."
"You mentioned us?"
Upon hearing this, the worshippers immediately became interested.
Apart from Qian Daoliu, who among them wasn't childless? In addition, Qian Xun was busy back then, and Bibi Dong hated Qian Renxue. With no one to take care of her, she lived in the Hall of Offerings from a young age. These godfathers of hers all doted on her to the core.
So when they learned that the letter mentioned them, they immediately acted like a bunch of playful old children. Just as they were about to scramble for it, a hand intercepted it halfway, and it fell into the hands of Golden Crocodile Douluo.
Feeling the ten gazes directed at him, the golden crocodile turned around.
Golden Crocodile Douluo: "What? You want to rob me?"
The other five worshippers: "..."
How dare I, how dare I (I dare not speak out against my anger)!
As his gaze swept over the letter, Golden Crocodile Douluo, who had just been wearing a stern face, immediately broke into a smile. "No wonder you're smiling so happily, big brother. It seems that Xiaoxue has indeed become more sensible over the years."
Upon hearing this, the other five elders became even more curious. Having just received the item from Golden Crocodile Douluo, they all began to examine it together.
Then everything became clear.
"Xiaoxue has really grown up; she cares about us now."
"Yes, no wonder my brother said he didn't believe it just now."
"Who said they didn't believe it?" The Fifth Elder, Guangling Douluo, said righteously. "Brother, if you ask me, that's where you're wrong. What makes you think you just said you didn't quite believe Xiaoxue wrote it?"
"Xiaoxue has been this kind of child since she was little."
This one sentence immediately brought the other worshippers to their senses. Those who had spoken before immediately changed their tune, while those who hadn't spoken before also began to "criticize."
For a moment, Qian Daoliu was at a loss for words.
Once this little farce was over, the worshippers reread the letters and naturally learned of Qian Daoliu's concerns.
"Big brother, you don't need to worry."
As the eldest and second in status, Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke first, "That woman Bibi Dong never liked Xiaoxue; to put it bluntly, you could say she hated her. In my opinion, that woman would be more than happy if Xiaoxue severed her mother-daughter relationship with her."
"that is."
Guangling Douluo sat in his seat, with one foot on the chair and the other dangling in mid-air.
"Back then, Xiaoxue even went undercover in the Heavenly Dou Empire out of spite because of this, and her cultivation has fallen behind over the years. But what about her mother? Has she ever cared? Her mind is probably completely on that female disciple. If you ask me..."
"Little Five!"
Seeing Qian Daoliu's expression darken slightly, Qingluan Douluo immediately reprimanded and stopped him.
If Guangling Douluo were allowed to continue, his next words would likely be, "Bibi Dong never treated Xiaoxue as her daughter, but rather her female disciple as her own."
That sounds awful!
However, although he stopped it, it does not mean that Qingluan Douluo denied Guangling Douluo's point of view.
On the contrary, he actually agreed with it.
Similarly, there are also lions, pounding weight, and demon slayers.
"Brother, if you ask me, you should just leave this matter alone."
"yes."
"..."
"well--"
Hearing these words, Qian Daoliu couldn't help but sigh.
"But once Xiaoxue makes this decision, there will be no room for negotiation between her and her mother. Even the Pope might..."
"Big brother!"
Before Qian Daoliu could finish speaking, Golden Crocodile Douluo interrupted him. "If you ask me, since Xiaoxue thinks this way, let's just go all the way and remove that woman from the position of Pope, then give the seat back to Xiaoxue!"
"Besides, she hasn't been doing a very good job all these years. Even though I don't go out often, I still hear news about the rising tide of the Fallen. I don't think that woman can manage it."
To put it bluntly...
That is to eliminate dissidents!
Golden Crocodile Douluo had the most objections to Bibi Dong.
He had heard about the incident involving the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall and a useless member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan back then.
Furthermore, since Bibi Dong wasn't even a member of the Qian family, Golden Crocodile Douluo's objections were even stronger! If it weren't for the fact that she was Qian Renxue's mother, he would have opposed Qian Daoliu's decision back then.
Now that Xiaoxue herself wants to sever her mother-daughter relationship, how could Golden Crocodile Douluo agree to let Bibi Dong continue to be the Pope, causing chaos throughout the entire Spirit Hall?
Upon hearing Golden Crocodile Douluo's suggestion, the other five elders also expressed their agreement. Firstly, because of Xiaoxue, and secondly, because they also disapproved of Bibi Dong's actions so far.
They also wanted the Spirit Hall to continue to prosper.
"Brother, back then, you died because of Xunji, and Xiaoxue was still young, so we supported her rise to power. Although we complained, we still supported you. But if you continue to protect that woman this time, we brothers won't agree. These troubles at the Spirit Hall need to be addressed. We can't just ignore them forever, can we?"
The Lion Douluo stepped forward and began to deliver a lengthy speech.
They had only just gotten into the conversation when, "Hmm—"
Qian Daoliu's sharp gaze immediately silenced the Lion Douluo and also stopped the Qianjun and Jiangmo brothers.
But they chickened out, while the three Golden Crocodile Douluo were still there.
With his old buddies constantly nagging in his ear, Qian Daoliu's mood gradually became irritable. But ultimately, what they said made sense, so where could he vent his anger…?
"alright!"
Qian Daoliu suddenly spoke up, stopping the conversation.
"Let's put the matter of making Xiaoxue the Pope of the Spirit Hall on hold for now. She doesn't have enough strength to subdue the elders of the Elder Hall and the bishops under her command, so the position of Pope still has to be held by Bibi Dong."
"As for Bibi Dong..."
A sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
"I'll warn her!"
Over the years since her coronation, she has indeed gone too far.
However, there is still an important thing to do next…
"Does anyone want to write a reply to Xiaoxue?"
"I! I! I'll write a letter..."
"Why don't we just write them all down?"
"Then write them all down and have someone take them back to Xiaoxue."
"Too…"
As the several elders in the Douluo Palace began to write, not long after, a warning from Qian Daoliu reached the Papal Palace.
Meanwhile, inside the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong, who was handling affairs, felt her anger surge instantly upon receiving Qian Daoliu's strongly worded warning!
His fingernails dug directly into his flesh. "You bastard Qian Daoliu!" But even in his curses, a deep sense of fear could be detected in his words.
At that moment, a dark figure appeared behind Bibi Dong, which immediately restored the Pope's composure and dignity, who had just been burning with anger.
A cold smile crept across her lips, and she parted them slightly, but... no one knew what she was saying.
Meanwhile, on the other side, in the Heavenly Dou Empire…
