Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is a Simulator

Chapter 38 Qianxunji

"The Saintess has returned?"

"Alright, alright, tell the Holy Maiden to come see me immediately!"

In the Papal Palace, Qian Xunji, who was handling the affairs of the Spirit Hall, was overjoyed to learn that Bibi Dong had returned to Spirit City.

"Xue'er has been clamoring to see her mother, and she's finally back!"

Qian Xunji then smiled slightly.

In the past two years, Qian Renxue has asked him many times where Bibi Dong went and why she hasn't come back yet.

"I can't believe she actually came out of the Killing City!"

"But that makes sense. With her talent, it would be strange if she couldn't escape the City of Slaughter!"

"It seems she has already obtained the recorded God of Slaughter Domain!"

Although Qian Xunji was somewhat surprised that Bibi Dong was able to return from the City of Slaughter, he also thought it was only natural.

If Bibi Dong hadn't possessed such exceptional talent, he wouldn't have taken her as his disciple, much less resorted to such methods to keep her!

Afterwards, Qian Xunji sat quietly on the throne, waiting for Bibi Dong's arrival.

Soon after, Qian Xunji saw Bibi Dong return.

"Teacher, I'm back!"

After entering the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong saw Qian Xunji sitting on the throne. Suppressing the hatred in her heart, Bibi Dong respectfully greeted Qian Xunji.

"My good disciple, you're finally back!"

"I am very pleased to see you return from the City of Slaughter!"

Seeing Bibi Dong behaving very respectfully towards him, Qian Xunji smiled with satisfaction.

He also knew that Bibi Dong could only accept their relationship as master and disciple, and that she was unwilling to go any further. He had no intention of forcing Bibi Dong.

As long as Bibi Dong is willing to stay and remain his disciple, Qian Xunji feels that's enough.

"Thanks to the teacher's guidance!"

Bibi Dong lowered her head and said.

"Teacher, I brought someone back from the City of Slaughter with me. I hope we can have him join our Spirit Hall!"

"He, like me, passed the trials of the Killing City and emerged from within!"

Bibi Dong didn't want to say those hypocritical things to Qian Xunji, so she changed the subject and started talking about Mu Ge.

"Oh? Someone actually came out of the Killing City?"

Where is he/she?

Qian Xunji's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing Bibi Dong's words.

Anyone who can emerge from the City of Slaughter is undoubtedly a genius, and it would be a good thing to recruit such a person into the Spirit Hall.

"The person is right outside!"

"Alright, let him in. I want to see who it is that has the ability to escape from the City of Slaughter!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Xunji immediately let Mu Ge in.

Then, following the guard's instructions, Mu Ge entered the Papal Palace.

Previously, Bibi Dong had told him to wait outside.

"I am Hu Ge, greetings to His Holiness the Pope!"

Upon entering the Papal Palace, Mu Ge saw Qian Xunji on the throne, who was bowing slightly with one hand across his chest.

"Hu Ge? Why is he wearing a mask?"

Qian Xunji noticed Mu Ge was wearing a mask immediately upon seeing him and then asked him about it.

"Your Holiness, I was originally a Sea Soul Master. I wear a mask because of the custom in my hometown. Both men and women wear masks after awakening their Martial Souls, and they only remove them on their wedding day!"

Mu Ge began to explain.

This explanation was also discussed with Bibi Dong, and Bibi Dong felt there was no problem with it.

After all, geniuses have privileges, and she believed that Qian Xunji wouldn't make things difficult for Mu Ge because of this!

"I see. Then I'll wait for the day you take off your mask!"

As expected, Qian Xunji just smiled when he heard this, and did not press the matter further.

Since Mu Ge has already said that, if he still forces Mu Ge to take off his mask, regardless of Mu Ge's willingness, it will first and foremost show disrespect for Mu Ge, which will not be conducive to winning people's hearts.

As the Pope of the Spirit Hall, he certainly wouldn't be so reckless.

Even if we suspect Mu Ge's identity, we can investigate it later.

Anyway, the best course of action is to recruit such a genius into the Spirit Hall.

Besides, even if Mu Ge's identity is questionable, as long as he doesn't come with malicious intent, he doesn't care.

"Your Holiness, after arriving on the mainland, I realized that its prosperity far surpasses anything overseas, so I wish to stay here!"

"Since Her Highness invited me, I agreed!"

"Your Holiness, you wouldn't refuse me just because I'm a Sea Soul Master, would you?"

Seeing that Qian Xunji did not insist that he take off his mask, Mu Ge breathed a sigh of relief and then continued.

However, even if Qian Xunji insisted that he take off his mask, Mu Ge would not be afraid.

His true identity hadn't offended the Spirit Hall; rather, it had offended those sects and forces. If Qian Xunji knew his true identity, even if he didn't take him in, he would still let him leave.

Let him go and fight against those sects and forces that are chasing him.

"Haha, of course!"

"Hu Ge, on behalf of the Spirit Hall, I welcome you to join us!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Xunji laughed, then stood up, stepped down from the throne, and formally addressed Mu Ge.

"Thank you, Your Holiness the Pope. It is my honor to join the Spirit Hall!"

The pastoral song was met with a smile.

"Hu Ge, you look very young. What is your current soul power level?"

After it was officially confirmed that Mu Ge had joined the Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji did not hesitate to ask Mu Ge for details, so that he could make arrangements for Mu Ge.

"Your Holiness, I am a level 54 Soul King, 20 years old this year, and my Martial Soul is the top-tier Martial Soul Frostmourne!"

When Qian Xunji asked about it, Mu Ge explained his situation as planned.

"A 20-year-old Soul King..."

Upon hearing that Mu Ge was actually a 20-year-old Soul King, Qian Xunji was shocked. He had thought that Mu Ge might be very young, but he never expected that Mu Ge was only 20 years old.

A Soul King at level 54 at the age of 20 is a feat few can achieve, even within the Spirit Hall.

What shocked Qian Xunji even more was that Mu Ge actually managed to fight his way out of the City of Slaughter with the cultivation of a Soul King.

Although he had never been inside the City of Slaughter, he knew how dangerous it was. Even though it was said that once inside the City of Slaughter, soul skills could not be used and soul power level was irrelevant.

However, the higher the soul power level, the stronger the individual will be.

It is terrifying that Mu Ge was able to fight his way out of the City of Slaughter with the cultivation of a Soul King.

He had previously worried that Bibi Dong, at the Soul Saint level, wouldn't be able to escape from the City of Slaughter!

When Bibi Dong first mentioned that someone had come out of the City of Slaughter with her, he assumed that the other person was at least a Soul Saint or a Soul Douluo.

Little did anyone know that Mu Ge wasn't even a Soul Emperor, but just a minor Soul King!
