Chapter 697: Tang Chen's Emergence

"Tang Chen?"

Poseixi blinked: "He can be considered a contemporary of mine. If it truly is him, then the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect backing down is understandable."

Qin Jian nodded: "But if it isn't him, then there is a high probability that the Angel Empire is stirring up trouble behind the scenes. Qian Daoliu's strength is also enough to cause the situation on the Dalu to change."

"Qian Daoliu..."

Poseixi blinked again: "Decades have passed, and these two fellows are still influencing the Dalu? It seems I am not old yet."

"Big sister is not old at all."

Qin Jian held her hand and said: "I wonder what kind of expressions Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen will have when they see you."

Poseixi glanced at him: "What kind of expression do you hope for?"

Qin Jian curled his lips: "Probably green with envy."

"Green what green?"

Poseixi patted his head in annoyance: "I have nothing to do with them!"

"Mm."

Qin Jian's smile did not hide his worry: "It seems now that the Star Luo Empire, the Angel Empire, and the divided Heaven Dou Empire have united, while the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has joined forces with the Spirit Hall. The confrontation between the two sides has reached a white-hot stage."

"Did someone just say a decisive battle is imminent? And the location for the decisive battle is Wuhun City?"

Poseixi looked at him and said: "Are you going to rush over there?"

Qin Jian nodded without hesitation: "As things stand, the situation for the Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is dire and they are at a disadvantage. Fortunately, I came back with you, just in time."

"I thought the situation on the Dalu was at least maintaining a balance since I never saw you leave Sea God Island before. I didn't expect it to have been completely broken," Poseixi said.

Qin Jian said with a heavy face: "I also didn't expect such a huge variable to appear in just two years. I originally thought that with the Pope and Qian Daoliu confronting each other, the Dalu would be relatively peaceful for a period of time."

"It's fine, there is still time. Since we have come, we are the greatest variable," Poseixi gently touched Qin Jian's cheek.

Qin Jian said with a hint of apology: "I originally wanted to accompany you to walk around, I didn't expect to drag you into the disputes of the Dalu."

Poseixi smiled lightly: "It doesn't matter. Being able to help you makes me even happier than fulfilling my own wishes."

"Mm."

Qin Jian nodded, his heart feeling soft.

Although the God Trial tortured him to the point of being heartbroken and in extreme pain, being able to receive the devotion of such a gentle woman was the greatest compensation for him.

Wuhun City, Pope Palace Council Hall.

"Pope, the current situation is very unfavorable for us."

Ning Fengzhi's voice rang out in the hall.

He was currently sitting in the seat below the Pope's throne, while Jian Douluo and Gu Douluo stood behind him as usual.

"In the competition at the level of Spirit Masters, we are at a disadvantage. No one expected that Tang Chen was still alive, and like Qian Daoliu, is a 99 level Limit Douluo."

Bibi Dong sat in the head seat, holding her Scepter, her expression indifferent and awe-inspiring.

"But we are not without a chance," her fingers tapped the armrest of the chair, and she said: "We have been feigning weakness all along just to see what their backup plan was. Now it seems that even if they have a backup plan, it is not for a decisive battle at this moment, so we will not wait!"

She slowly stood up, looking down from a high position at everyone: "I want to let them see the changes Qin Jian has brought to the Dalu over these years. Spirit Masters... are no longer the only thing that determines war!"

Ning Fengzhi stood up with her, and while nodding, he was also somewhat worried: "Everything else is easy to say, but Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu are enough to turn the tide. What does the Pope intend to do?"

Bibi Dong gripped her Scepter tightly, cold light flashing in her phoenix eyes.

"Ning Sect Master."

She suddenly looked over and said solemnly: "From now on, all Spirit Hall forces are under your command, and the Scepters of Qin Jian and myself are also temporarily handed over to you."

"What?!"

The members of the Spirit Hall, such as Ju Douluo and Gui Douluo, all exclaimed in shock.

"Pope, you... trust me this much?" Ning Fengzhi's expression was very complex.

Bibi Dong shook her head and smiled: "It is not you I trust, but Qin Jian."

"Pope!"

Ju Douluo couldn't help but step forward, wanting to say something.

But Bibi Dong just waved her hand, stopping his words: "My mind is made up, no need to say more."

"Jian Douluo..."

She suddenly looked at Chen Xin behind Ning Fengzhi.

"Please speak, Pope," Jian Douluo said politely.

Bibi Dong glanced at his Sword Outfit, which came from the same lineage as Qin Jian's, and a trace of longing flashed through her eyes and vanished.

"Qin Jian calls you teacher, so I will also shamelessly call you teacher..."

She gently stroked her hair, ignoring the strange looks from others, and said: "With your 98 level strength, plus the assistance of Ning Sect Master, and the other few Elders, it should be no problem to defend against the dozen or so Title Douluo other than Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu..."

"As long as you hold back the opponent's high-end combat power, the decisive battle of the Spirit Master armies will fall into a stalemate. By then, within three days, their rear will become unstable."

Ning Fengzhi's expression was grave: "Then, there is only one problem left: Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu..."

He looked at Bibi Dong, his gaze unable to hide his shock: "Does the Pope intend to deal with two Limit Douluo alone?!"

"Pope!"

The several Title Douluo Elders of the Spirit Hall were all shocked upon hearing this.

"Bang!"

Bibi Dong's Scepter tapped against the floor with a soft sound.

She looked outside the palace, the slanting sunset falling on her profile, dreamlike and illusory.

"The Limit Douluo on this Dalu... are not just those two!"

A vast and boundless pressure suddenly descended upon the Pope Palace.

Even though almost everyone present was a Title Douluo, they were all eclipsed and filled with shock before this aura.

"Pope, at your age, you have actually reached Level 99!"

The look of shock finally appeared on Jian Douluo's perpetually wooden face.

He had been stuck at Level 96 for many years, only breaking through to Level 97 after realizing his heart of protecting Qin Jian, and later, because Qin Jian fed back the Supreme Guardian Sword Intent to him, he had arduously broken through to Level 98 after several years of bitter cultivation.

Yet Bibi Dong was not even half his age, and she had already reached the extreme height of Level 99; how could one not be amazed?

"If it were not for my desire to create my own God Position, I would have already become a god by now," Bibi Dong said indifferently.

The crowd looked at each other in silence.

Comparing people really can infuriate others...

"But Pope, Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu are both invincible existences at the peak of the Dalu; is it not too difficult for you to deal with them alone?" Ning Fengzhi still did not relax.

Bibi Dong turned back and smiled: "It is precisely because of this that I am entrusting the Spirit Hall, and the Spirit Master world that Qin Jian and I have worked so hard to unify, entirely to you!"

Ning Fengzhi pondered for a moment: "Could it be... you do not intend to fight them to the death? But rather intend to drag it out, or lure them away? Until the war is won completely?"

Bibi Dong nodded and then shook her head: "I do intend to lure them away from the battlefield, but not just to drag it out blindly; rather, I am looking for an opportunity to..."

Her red lips curved into a cruel arc: "Slay them all!"
