Chapter 484: No More Pretense! Time to Lay All the Cards on the Table! I'm Going to Beat Up Both the Soul Beasts and Spirit Hall!
Pope's Palace. Inside a secret chamber.
A purplish-black soul power filled the air. A woman with a purplish-black demonic纹 between her eyebrows sat cross-legged. Though she wore no rouge, her lips were a purplish-black hue.
Her fair skin and the purplish-black demonic纹 exuded an aura of enchanting wickedness.
Anyone who saw her would be shocked.
For Bibi Dong at this moment possessed none of the noble sanctity she usually displayed as Pope. Instead, she was filled with an evil depravity that contradicted her very being.
A massive phantom of a Demon Spider floated behind her.
Suddenly, Bibi Dong opened her eyes, her dark pupils sending chills down one's spine.
The eighth trial of the Rakshasa God was finally complete.
At this moment, the power she could wield was at the peak of level 98, but the combat strength she displayed was already comparable to Qian Daoliu.
If there were another Beast Tide battle, Bibi Dong would definitely not be stuck with the dogs!
She could devour the Crimson King completely!
However, Bibi Dong suddenly clutched her head, her face contorted in extreme pain.
Her Rakshasa God trial was not completely successful. Although she barely passed, it left considerable aftereffects on her body.
From time to time, she would experience severe headaches, her mind filled with evil and resentment, giving her the urge to tear everything around her to shreds.
"Get out! Aaaah!"
Bibi Dong waved her hand violently, and a powerful soul power erupted, blasting the stone chamber into a mess, pulverizing the incredibly hard marble.
After a long while, she finally found relief, panting heavily.
The purplish-black soul power that surrounded her body also forced its way back into her, and she changed into a gorgeous and noble Pope's robe, once again becoming the supreme, sacred, and revered Pope.
Bibi Dong rubbed her temples.
She walked out of the secret chamber.
She immediately summoned Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.
Both Super Douluo at level 95 clearly sensed that the Pope was different from before, giving them a sense of unfathomable depth, as if they were facing the Great Enshrined Qian Daoliu.
However, compared to Qian Daoliu's simple power, Bibi Dong harbored something even more terrifying, causing them to feel apprehensive.
"I have completed my seclusion, and my strength has greatly increased. It is time to act on many things."
"Incorporating the major Soul Master Academies, managing the major sects, and conquering the two great empires are all things that Spirit Hall has been preparing for."
"Now, let's begin with the rectification of the academies and sects. The specific matters will be arranged by the two elders."
Bibi Dong's tone was indifferent, yet it carried an undeniable majesty.
"You only need to remember one thing."
"Spirit Hall will manage everything on this continent that we can manage, and we will also manage what we cannot manage. The Pope has granted special permission to execute first and report later."
"If you encounter anyone who is unyielding, kill them."
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo's faces revealed fanatic expressions upon hearing this.
The reason why they, as Titled Douluo, were willing to pledge allegiance to Spirit Hall was either because Spirit Hall had nurtured them from a young age, or because wealth moved people's hearts.
Without sufficient benefits, even those nurtured from a young age would eventually betray.
What Spirit Hall brought to Titled Douluo, in addition to wealth and supreme authority, was also a promise for the future!
Like soldiers expanding territory, they rejoiced at the prospect of war.
"Yes! We respectfully obey Your Holiness's orders!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo held a very transcendent status in Spirit Hall. They were not only the two strongest elders in Spirit Hall, but also Bibi Dong's spokesmen.
They could even mobilize Titled Douluo.
After Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo left, Bibi Dong revealed a pensive expression, her eyes flickering.
What she was thinking about now were those tough nuts to crack: the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and the Dugu Bo faction centered around Lin Xiao.
The combat strength Lin Xiao displayed as a Soul Saint was enough to contend with a Titled Douluo, even more heaven-defying than Yang Wudi, who contended with a Titled Douluo with the body of a Soul Douluo, so Bibi Dong could not help but take him seriously.
Bibi Dong had already given up on trying to recruit Lin Xiao.
After several setbacks, she had long understood.
Lin Xiao and she were not on the same path.
Which meant they were destined to be enemies in the future.
Unfortunately, she did not take decisive action back then because she was wary of Dugu Bo. Now that Lin Xiao had revealed his fangs, it was even more difficult for Bibi Dong to deal with him.
"If I had known, I would have paid any price at the time to kill Dugu Bo and Lin Xiao!"
"Even in Spirit Hall, in front of everyone, I must not miss any opportunity!"
However, Bibi Dong had clearly forgotten.
The Soul Master Competition had ended, And she had almost been scared to death by Dugu Bo's poison explosion when she had tried to attack Lin Xiao with malicious intent.
Now, the time had come when she had no choice but to act.
Bibi Dong's gaze was cold as she looked into the distance.
With her current strength, dealing with Lin Xiao and Dugu Bo was naturally no problem.
And Dugu Bo's so-called poison explosion...
Heh.
She had only allowed him to be so arrogant because they were in Spirit City. What if she went to him personally this time?
Whether Heaven Dou City or Star Luo City was blown up, Bibi Dong would only watch with cold eyes, even applauding with pleasure.
The only reason she was wary of Spirit City being blown up was simply because it was her base of operations, her power.
As the Rakshasa God's trial gradually neared its end, the "side effects" Bibi Dong had accumulated during the trial became increasingly apparent, filling her heart with a constant sense of world-weariness.
At times, she would even be overcome by a strong desire for destruction, wishing she could destroy the entire world.
...
Skywater City.
Shui Shengxiao sighed helplessly.
"I knew this day would eventually come."
Since Lin Xiao had spoken with the Spirit Hall branch master last time, Spirit Hall had been very tolerant of matters involving the Shui Family, not being aggressive.
But now, The wind had completely changed.
Lin Xiao's influence was no longer effective.
Spirit Hall had begun to use violent means, forcibly coercing Skywater Academy and the prominent families in Skywater City to take sides, and no one could stay out of it.
Including the Shui Family.
"It seems I have no choice but to go to Heaven Dou City and rely on my good son-in-law."
Shui Shengxiao really hadn't expected that he would still be sponging off his child at nearly fifty years old.
Lin Xiao's excellence made even him, the dignified head of the Shui Family, feel that his daughter had married above herself.
He wished he had more daughters to marry off.
He had already sent a letter, conveying the specific situation in Skywater City, Spirit Hall's actions, and the news that he was about to go and seek refuge with Lin Xiao.
Unfortunately, he hadn't received a reply in time.
Faced with Spirit Hall's increasingly violent attitude, Shui Shengxiao couldn't wait for a reply and had to act first and inform later.
...
At this moment.
On the vast sea, above the blue waves.
Although Lin Xiao hadn't received Shui Shengxiao's reply, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's merchant fleet had brought Ning Fengzhi's information.
Lin Xiao hadn't told Shui Bing'er and the others about what was happening on the continent. They only needed to focus on their god trials and not be too eager to succeed because of it.
He would take care of the continent's affairs.
"Now that Phoenix Pavilion has developed to this point, it's time to tell the world who the real boss of this land is..."
Lin Xiao stood alone against the tide, his hands behind his back.
He would beat both the soul beasts and Spirit Hall!
Beat them until no one on the continent dared to call themselves emperor!
No more hiding, time to show my hand!
