Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Black Dragon, I am the Lord of the Gods

Chapter 222 A New Love

Chapter 222 A New Love
……

The air seemed to be frozen.

Although they had long heard that Xuanming was outspoken, the two Douluo, Qianjun Jiangmo, were a little stunned and even unsure whether this kid was cursing them.

How dare he?

The Golden Crocodile Douluo trembled violently at the sudden shout of "idiot!" His eyes blazed, and a terrifying aura suddenly erupted, causing the entire council hall to tremble slightly under its pressure.

Bibi Dong frowned, and in a flash, she appeared in front of Xuan Ming, blocking the surging aura of Golden Crocodile Douluo. "Elder Golden Crocodile, what is the meaning of this?"

Qianjun and Jiangmo, the two elders, exchanged a glance. Although they did not make a move immediately, they secretly circulated their soul power, ready to support Golden Crocodile Douluo at any time.

“Bibi Dong, didn’t you hear me?” Golden Crocodile Douluo said coldly.

"So what if I heard it?" Bibi Dong retorted.

"Elder Jin'e, don't you know that this child is always straightforward and speaks his mind?"

"Was he just stating the truth, or did Elder Golden Crocodile get so angry?"

"You!" Golden Crocodile Douluo grunted, forcibly suppressing his anger.

He knew that this was not the time to fight Bibi Dong. If they were to fight Bibi Dong in the Spirit Temple, the Spirit Temple would be in turmoil!
"Xuanming, don't think that just because Bibi Dong is protecting you, you can act recklessly in the Spirit Hall! The Spirit Hall is not ultimately ruled by Bibi Dong alone!" Golden Crocodile Douluo said coldly.

Xuanming looked puzzled. "How have I acted recklessly this time?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo said coldly, "Disrespectful to elders, for this alone, I..."

"Wait a minute." Xuanming couldn't help but raise his hand to interrupt.

"I am neither your subordinate nor a Soul Master of the Spirit Hall, so I don't seem to have any obligation to greet you, do I?"

"Furthermore, what kind of bullshit is this about disrespecting elders? Whose elder are you?"

"Do we know each other that well? Why do you have such a big face?"

"You!" Golden Crocodile's face darkened, his anger intensifying.

"Stop with the 'you, you, you'. After all these years, you still haven't changed a bit of your sycophantic and subservient nature," Xuanming said calmly.

"If Tang Chen had been the one who ignored you just now, would you have dared to utter a single fart?"

"You only dare to act tough with people weaker than you, and you call yourself a highly respected person? I really don't know where you get the nerve."

Golden Crocodile Douluo's face flushed red with anger after being choked by Xuanming's words. His eyes widened in fury. "Xuanming, don't think that just because you have Bibi Dong's protection, I won't dare to touch you!"

Bibi Dong's face turned cold. She took a step forward, and dark purple soul power fluctuations spread out. "Try moving!"

Upon seeing this, the two guardians of Qianjun Jiangmo took a step forward, their soul power surging, forming a powerful sense of oppression, and confronted Bibi Dong.

Qianjun Douluo said in a deep voice, "Bibi Dong, Elder Jin'e's words are not without reason. Important matters of the Spirit Hall should be discussed and decided by the Elder Hall and the Pope, rather than by you alone."

Bibi Dong sneered, "I'm autocratic? Do you really think I'm still the puppet pope you used to manipulate?"

Anyone with eyes can see that because of Xuanming's problem, the seven major families and the Heavenly Dou Empire will be thrown into turmoil, and even the three upper sects will be involved.

The Star Luo Empire will not get involved in this mess!
In order to ensure that the Xuanming matter can be resolved properly, the Heaven Dou royal family and the seven major families will inevitably choose to handle it on their own territory, and the final of the Soul Master Competition can only be held in Heaven Dou City!
Since Jin E brought the two elders, Qian Jun Jiang Mo, to Tian Dou City, it proves that the Elder Hall has made a decision and agreed to hold the final of the Soul Master Competition in Tian Dou City.

The reason this old man is causing trouble for her here is simply to try and usurp control of the Martial Soul Temple.

"Bibi Dong, don't think I can't do anything to you!" Golden Crocodile Douluo said coldly.

"Don't forget, the Elders' Council can vote to remove the Pope!"

"Then why don't you dismiss him?" Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow.

"Is it that you don't want to?"

The Elders' Council does have the power to depose the Pope, but this is subject to certain conditions.

Justified!
An emperor needs sufficient reasons and thorough preparations to dismiss a powerful minister, let alone a pope who is already supreme.
To remove her from the papacy, there must be a reason that is at least nominally plausible and convincing to everyone!
But she has worked diligently all these years, and everyone can see the growth and development of the Spirit Hall. Under such circumstances, the Elders' Hall inexplicably wants to remove her from the position of Pope. What do the people of the Spirit Hall think?
The previous attempt to seize power by force using the Angel Legion was a poor strategy. Whether it succeeded or not, it would cause unrest within the Spirit Hall. Therefore, after the events in Sunset Forest, the Elders' Hall did not choose to issue a proclamation to depose the Pope directly. Instead, they allowed Golden Crocodile to take control of the Papal Palace and gradually seize power.

If the Elders could really take away her papacy with just a word, then it wouldn't be her who would become a laughing stock, but the "Pope" himself!
If the Pope's authority as the supreme leader is reduced to a laughing stock, then the Spirit Hall will also become a laughing stock!

Moreover, she couldn't just sit idly by and wait to die. Once the relationship was broken, she would definitely fight back. The Soul Master world was already in turmoil. If the Spirit Hall suddenly started to cause trouble, guess what the two great empires and the seven major sects would do?
"Humph!"

Seeing Bibi Dong's unyielding attitude, Golden Crocodile Douluo did not choose to continue making trouble and turned to leave with Qianjun Jiangmo.

Now is indeed not the time to completely break with Bibi Dong. If we were to take action now, the Spirit Hall would inevitably fall into chaos, which would also be detrimental to the Elder Hall.

But soon, he had a legitimate reason to depose the pope!
"It seems you've learned a lot."

Bibi Dong ignored the brief incident and turned her attention to Xuan Ming's condition.

“It is indeed very large.” Xuanming raised his right hand, with gray-black energy flowing in his palm.

"Evil attribute?" Bibi Dong's eyes changed slightly.

"You really found the Dark Demon God Tiger?" "Sixty thousand years. If it were any higher, I wouldn't be able to absorb it anymore," Xuanming said.

Although the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is only 60,000 years old, its energy is extremely violent, and the difficulty of absorbing it even exceeds that of a typical 100,000-year soul ring. Moreover, it has an evil attribute, making it extremely domineering.

In other words, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had been brutally beaten by him before he died, which had caused him to break down psychologically and develop a fear of him. In addition, the bead was still there. During the process of absorbing the soul ring, the bead and the soul ring resonated with each other and wore each other down, which greatly reduced his pressure. Otherwise, he would probably have had to use the energy of the dragon bone to safely absorb the soul ring.

"The effect of this thing is probably comparable to a set of 100,000-year soul rings and soul bones, right?" Bibi Dong said.

"More or less," Xuanming said.

The Dark Demon God Tiger's natal pearl greatly enhanced all his attributes after he absorbed it; the pearl's help to him was comparable to that of a 100,000-year-old soul bone.

Furthermore, the power of the scoundrel Evil God's Thorn is no weaker than a 100,000-year-old soul skill.

"Nana thought she was going to give you a surprise, but it seems she's going to get depressed again," Bibi Dong said helplessly.

"What's wrong?" Xuanming asked.

"You'll know when she finishes her seclusion," Bibi Dong said.

After Hu Liena's martial soul evolved, her strength was completely different from before. After obtaining her fifth spirit ring, the girl originally thought that she might be able to turn the tables on Xuan Ming, but now it seems that it is unlikely that she can.

Just in terms of soul power level alone, Xuanming is ten levels higher than her, not to mention the huge difference in their soul skills.

Hu Liena's innate ability to create clones is shameless, but Xuanming's innate domain is even more shameless!
"While I was away, there shouldn't have been any major problems in Tiandou City, right?" Xuanming asked.

"A big problem?" Bibi Dong thought for a moment.

"Qian Renxue did come to see me a few times, mentioning your matter. She inexplicably had a smug air about her, which I didn't quite understand."

"In addition, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Heaven Dou Royal Family, and the Seven Great Families seem to have almost reached an agreement. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon School has also become involved in this matter. They are now irreconcilable enemies with you."

"And then there's Dugu Bo. That old guy is a bit surprising. He actually reached level 94, and Yue Guan almost failed."

"Yue Guan? They're fighting again?" Xuan Ming asked, puzzled.

“You know how much they hate each other,” Bibi Dong said.

Xuanming's expression was somewhat unnatural. "Is there anything else?"

"That's all I know. For anything else, you can ask our Crown Prince, or ask Ning Fengzhi," Bibi Dong said.

Xuan thought for a moment and nodded, "Then I won't bother you any longer."

"Wait." Bibi Dong grabbed Xuanming.

"You're leaving already?"

"Isn't Nana still in seclusion?" Xuanming asked, puzzled.

Bibi Dong gently hugged her, "And me?"

"Aren't you going to keep me company?"

"I..." Xuanming opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
