Chapter 216: Yu Xiaogang's Intentions Exposed!
Wuhun Cheng.
This is the holy land in the hearts of all Spirit Masters across the continent.
Due to the Spirit Master Tournament, Wuhun Cheng has tightened its city defense policies.
Those who do not possess soul power are forbidden from entering the city during the tournament to prevent the large number of spectators arriving for the finals from affecting the city's public order.
Some far-sighted ordinary spectators entered the city in advance.
From then on, as long as they did not leave the city, they would not be driven out, which could be considered exploiting a loophole in the implementation of the law.
After traveling for nearly half a month, Yu Xiaogang, with one man and one horse, arrived before Wuhun Cheng.
Even if Yu Xiaogang were no longer welcomed, he himself possessed the cultivation of a Spirit Master, and thus he would not be blocked outside the city.
After entering the city, he led his horse and walked along the street.
More than twenty years ago, he was once a scholar of the Spirit Hall, and as he was in a romantic relationship with Bibi Dong, he had seen almost every corner of the city.
Revisiting a familiar place, he was filled with deep emotion.
"Everything here is still the same old way; it seems Bibi Dong has not forgotten me."
Thinking of this, he was full of confidence in this trip.
As long as he could swindle the cultivation method for Twin Martial Souls from Bibi Dong's hands, they would not need to see each other again in the future.
However, was the lack of change in the city's construction truly Bibi Dong's doing?
In reality, it was not.
Wuhun Cheng is nominally considered the home of every Spirit Master, and to avoid excessive changes to the city's construction that would create a sense of distance for Spirit Masters, it has always been maintained in its original appearance.
As for Yu Xiaogang's thoughts, it was purely wishful thinking.
……
The Pope Palace is located on a high mountain in the center of Wuhun Cheng.
The surrounding area for several kilometers is a military jurisdiction, and unauthorized persons are not allowed to enter.
Yu Xiaogang did not know how long he would have to stay in Wuhun Cheng.
Dealing with a woman certainly could not be done by force; he estimated he would still have to accompany Bibi Dong for a period of time before he could successfully obtain the cultivation method for Twin Martial Souls for Tang San.
For this reason, he opened a room in the city to temporarily rest his feet.
During the tournament, many people arrived in Wuhun Cheng early, causing room prices to rise somewhat.
However, compared to the later final stages, the room prices at this moment were much cheaper.
Yu Xiaogang gritted his teeth and opened a room for ten days in one go.
He only hoped to finish quickly so he could hand the cultivation method to Tang San before the finals began.
After settling his accommodation, he took the Pope Token and stepped onto the road leading to the Pope Palace.
As expected, he was stopped by guards at the first checkpoint in front of the Pope Palace.
To avoid people gossiping and to leave a good impression on Bibi Dong, Yu Xiaogang's attitude was much more humble this time.
He took the Pope Token from his bosom and displayed it to the guards.
"Greetings, Elder."
Seeing this, the guards hurriedly bowed and saluted.
Yu Xiaogang nodded and asked casually, "I wish to see the Pope; is she there?"
Receiving an affirmative answer, Yu Xiaogang declined the guards' offer to lead the way and walked up Pope Mountain on his own.
Seeing him leave, the guards whispered among themselves, "Is that guy really an Elder? Why do I feel like he only has the cultivation of a Great Spirit Master?"
Being able to serve at the Pope Palace, the cultivation of these guards was naturally not poor, and they could easily distinguish Yu Xiaogang's strength.
The guard captain scolded, "Do not gossip about an Elder. Elders of the Spirit Hall do not rely entirely on strength; some people who have made special contributions to the Spirit Hall may still be granted the title of Honorary Elder."
Of course, to prevent Yu Xiaogang from offending the Pope Bibi Dong and inviting punishment, the guard captain arranged for someone to report to Bibi Dong in advance.
……
There were many eyes and ears belonging to the Consecration Hall within the Pope Palace.
How could Yu Xiaogang's appearance be hidden from them?
Soon, the news was passed back to the Consecration Hall.
Because of the Immortal Herb provided by Wu Qi, Jin Yuting's talent had improved, and now she was no different from a top genius.
For such a great favor, Golden Crocodile Douluo certainly had to repay it.
Not long ago, Wu Qi wrote a letter back, specifically explaining Yu Xiaogang's situation; he had no reason not to care.
"Big Brother, that trash is back again. Should we..."
As he spoke, he made a throat-slitting gesture.
Qian Daoliu hurriedly stopped him, "No, Yu Xiaogang cannot die yet."
Without Yu Xiaogang, Bibi Dong would have no more attachments and would only become more insane in the future.
Therefore, no matter how one deals with Yu Xiaogang, his life must be preserved.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's face was as cold as water, and he said in a muffled voice, "But Big Brother, that trash is using the reputation of my Spirit Hall to act recklessly during the Spirit Master Tournament, and even for the sake of his disciple, he does not hesitate to ruin the reputation of the Spirit Hall!"
"This matter, if that madwoman Bibi Dong won't manage it, we cannot ignore it!"
"No matter what, that trash must pay the price he deserves."
Tang San's identity was no longer a secret within the Spirit Hall.
One must know that Dugu Bo had directly fought against Tang Hao; with this experience, Wu Qi naturally would not keep Tang San's identity a secret.
Moreover, Yu Xiaogang had reunited with Liu Erlong these past few years; it was impossible for him to come to find Bibi Dong because of emotional issues, so he must have other motives.
There were many confidential ancient books within the Spirit Hall that Yu Xiaogang had already seen through Bibi Dong back then.
With Yu Xiaogang's temperament, how could he possibly seek out Bibi Dong to explain the previous matter of impersonating a Spirit Hall Elder?
Even if an explanation is given, or even an admission of fault, it is highly probable that the motive behind it is to obtain something.
In terms of theory, there are only a few things Yu Xiaogang does not know, but they are all related to the Angel martial soul, and would be useless to take.
Therefore, the only thing Bibi Dong possesses that Yu Xiaogang urgently needs is likely the cultivation method for Twin Martial Souls.
"Big Brother, do you mean that Tang Hao's son possesses Twin Martial Souls?" Golden Crocodile Douluo asked, his face full of astonishment.
Qian Daoliu is merely cautious and indecisive, which does not mean he is a fool.
If Tang San only possessed the Blue Silver Grass martial soul, Tang Hao would likely have abandoned him long ago, rather than staying by his side at all times.
One must know that Tang Hao is a member of the Clear Sky Sect, and they take pride in the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul.
In the past, among the descendants of the Clear Sky Sect's core disciples, those who awakened a martial soul other than the Clear Sky Hammer would be abandoned outright.
Do not forget, Tang Hao is currently in extreme distress, yet he still has the heart to sacrifice for his son; this is only possible if Tang San has Twin Martial Souls, and the other martial soul is the Clear Sky Hammer.
Regarding the Clear Sky Sect as an opponent, Qian Daoliu has studied them for decades and cannot have guessed wrong.
"If that is truly the case, for Tang Hao to dare play such a big game right under our noses, I will certainly make him pay the price!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo said resentfully.
Qian Daoliu stood up, "I will handle this matter personally; you, Second Brother, wait outside the Pope Palace."
"Yu Xiaogang has acted by falsely using the name of an Elder of our Spirit Hall; this matter cannot be let go so easily!"
"The price that should be paid, he must pay!"
"Otherwise, in the future, anyone holding a Pope Token would dare to impersonate an Elder of our Spirit Hall!"
Matters having reached this point, Qian Daoliu had roughly guessed the origin of the Pope Token in Yu Xiaogang's hands.
However, he cannot bypass Bibi Dong to easily take action against Yu Xiaogang, so as to avoid encountering greater trouble.
Over these many years, he has also gained a certain understanding of Bibi Dong's temperament.
Naturally, he must "adapt to the situation" to make Bibi Dong relent.
