————————

The air seemed to solidify.

Although they had long heard that Xuan Ming was unrestrained, it was the first time Qian Jun Jiang Mo, the two Douluo, saw Xuan Ming curse so directly. They were a little confused, even a little unsure if this kid was cursing them?

How dare he?

Gold Crocodile Douluo trembled all over, stimulated by the sudden “idiot.” His eyes blazed, and a terrifying aura suddenly erupted, causing the entire council hall to tremble slightly under his pressure.

Bibi Dong frowned, her figure flashed, and she instantly appeared in front of Xuan Ming, blocking Gold Crocodile Douluo’s surging aura. “Elder Golden Crocodile, what is the meaning of this?”

Qian Jun and Jiang Mo, the two venerables, exchanged glances. Although they did not immediately act, they secretly circulated their spirit power, ready to support Gold Crocodile Douluo at any time.

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

“What if I did?” Bibi Dong retorted.

“Doesn’t Elder Golden Crocodile know that this child has always been straightforward and speaks his mind?”

“He’s just stating a fact. Or is Elder Golden Crocodile simply getting angry out of shame?”

“You!” Gold Crocodile Douluo grunted, forcefully suppressing his anger.

He knew that now was not the time to fight with Bibi Dong. If he and Bibi Dong fought fiercely in the Spirit Hall, the Spirit Hall would inevitably be in turmoil!

“Xuan Ming, don’t think that just because Bibi Dong protects you, you can do whatever you want in this Spirit Hall! This Spirit Hall, after all, is not hers alone to command!” Gold Crocodile Douluo said coldly.

Xuan Ming looked puzzled. “How have I been wanton?”

Gold Crocodile Douluo’s face was cold. “Disrespecting Elders. Just for this point, this old man…”

“Wait a moment.” Xuan Ming couldn’t help but raise his hand to interrupt.

“I am neither your subordinate nor a Spirit Master of the Spirit Hall. It seems I have no obligation to greet you, do I?”

“Furthermore, what kind of nonsense is ‘disrespecting Elders’? Whose Elder are you?”

“Am I very familiar with you? Why is your face so big?”

“You!” Golden Crocodile’s expression darkened, his anger growing even stronger.

“Stop ‘you, you, you.’ After so many years, your temper of bullying the weak and fawning on the strong really hasn’t changed at all.” Xuan Ming said indifferently.

“If the person who ignored you just now was Tang Chen, would you dare to fart?”

“You only dare to act tough with those weaker than you. ‘Highly respected,’ I really don’t know where you get the nerve.”

Gold Crocodile Douluo’s face flushed red, and his eyes were wide with anger, choked by Xuan Ming’s words. “Xuan Ming, don’t think that with Bibi Dong’s protection, I wouldn’t dare to touch you!”

Bibi Dong’s face turned cold. She took a step forward, and dark purple spirit power fluctuations spread out. “Try it?”

Seeing this, Qian Jun Jiang Mo, the two venerables, took a step forward, their spirit power surging, forming a powerful oppressive force, confronting Bibi Dong.

Qian Jun Douluo said in a deep voice, “Bibi Dong, what Elder Golden Crocodile said is not without reason. The important affairs of the Spirit Hall should be discussed and decided jointly by the Elder Palace and the Supreme Pontiff, not by you alone acting arbitrarily.”

Bibi Dong sneered. “I act arbitrarily? Do you really think I am still the puppet Supreme Pontiff you manipulated back then?”

Anyone with eyes should know by now that due to Xuan Ming’s problem, the Seven Great Families and the Heaven Dou Empire will stir up a storm, and even the Upper Three Sects will be involved.

The Star Luo Empire will not get involved in this muddy water!

To ensure that Xuan Ming’s matter can be resolved safely, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family and the Seven Great Families will inevitably choose to handle it on their own territory. The finals of the Spirit Master Grand Competition can only be held in Heaven Dou City!

Since Golden Crocodile brought Qian Jun Jiang Mo, the two venerables, to Heaven Dou City, it proves that the Elder Palace has already made a decision to agree to arrange the Spirit Master Grand Competition finals in Heaven Dou City.

The only reason this old fellow is making a fuss with her here is to usurp the host’s role and seize control of this Spirit Hall.

“Bibi Dong, don’t think I can’t do anything about you!” Gold Crocodile Douluo said coldly.

“Don’t forget, the Elder Palace can vote to impeach the Supreme Pontiff!”

“Then why don’t you impeach me?” Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow.

“Is it that you don’t want to?”

The Elder Palace indeed has the right to impeach the Supreme Pontiff, but this also has a prerequisite.

Legitimacy!

Even an emperor needs sufficient reasons and thorough preparations to dismiss a powerful minister, let alone a Supreme Pontiff who is already supreme?

To remove her from the position of Supreme Pontiff, there must be a reason that is at least nominally justifiable and convincing to everyone!

But she has been diligent for all these years, and the growth and strengthening of the Spirit Hall are visible to all. In this situation, if the Elder Palace inexplicably wants to remove her from the position of Supreme Pontiff, what would the people of the Spirit Hall think?

Mobilizing the Angel Legion to forcibly seize power before was a last resort. Whether it succeeded or not, it would cause unrest within the Spirit Hall. Therefore, after the incident in the Sunset Forest, the Elder Palace did not choose to directly issue an announcement to depose the Supreme Pontiff, but instead had Golden Crocodile take control of the Supreme Pontiff Palace’s power, slowly seizing power.

If the Elder Palace could really depose her from the position of Supreme Pontiff with just a word, then it would not be her who would become a joke, but the “Supreme Pontiff” itself!

If the dignity of the Supreme Pontiff, the supreme leader, became a laughingstock, the Spirit Hall would also become a joke!

What’s more, she couldn’t just sit back and do nothing. Once they completely fell out, she would inevitably resist. The Spirit Master’s world is already turbulent. If the Spirit Hall suddenly started fighting internally, guess what the Two Great Empires and the Seven Great Sects would do?

“Hmph!”

Seeing Bibi Dong’s unyielding attitude, Gold Crocodile Douluo did not choose to continue the dispute. He turned and left with Qian Jun and Jiang Mo.

Now was indeed not the time to completely break with Bibi Dong. If they acted at this time, the Spirit Hall would inevitably fall into chaos, which would also be unfavorable to the Elder Palace.

But soon, he would have a legitimate reason to depose the Supreme Pontiff!

“It seems your harvest was great.”

Bibi Dong didn’t pay attention to the recent interlude and instead focused on Xuan Ming’s situation.

“Indeed, very great.” Xuan Ming raised his right hand, and gray-black airflow circulated in his palm.

“Evil attribute?” Bibi Dong’s eyes changed slightly.

“Did you really find the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger?”

“Sixty thousand years. If it were any higher, I wouldn’t have been able to absorb it.” Xuan Ming said.

Although the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger was only sixty thousand years old, its energy was extremely violent. The difficulty of absorbing it even exceeded that of a typical hundred-thousand-year spirit ring, and with its evil attribute, this thing was extremely overbearing.

It was also because the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger was severely abused by him before it died, its psyche had already collapsed, and it had developed a fear of him. Coupled with the fact that the bead was still there, during the process of absorbing the spirit ring, the bead and the spirit ring resonated with each other, mutually wearing each other down, which greatly reduced the pressure on him. Otherwise, he might have had to use the energy of the dragon bone to safely absorb this spirit ring.

“The effect of this thing is probably comparable to a complete set of hundred-thousand-year spirit rings and Spirit Bones, right?” Bibi Dong said.

“Almost.” Xuan Ming said.

The Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s natal bead. After he absorbed that thing, all of his attributes were greatly enhanced. That bead’s help to him was comparable to a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone.

And the rogue ability of the Evil God Thorn was already not weaker than a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ability.

“Nana thought she could give you a surprise, but now it seems she’s going to be depressed again.” Bibi Dong said helplessly.

“What’s wrong?” Xuan Ming asked.

“You’ll know when she finishes her seclusion.” Bibi Dong said.

After Hu Liena’s Spirit evolved, her strength was completely different from before. After that girl obtained her fifth spirit ring, she was still thinking that she might be able to turn the tables on Xuan Ming, but now it seems that turning the tables is unlikely.

Just in terms of spirit power level, Xuan Ming was ten levels higher than her, not to mention the huge gap in Spirit Abilities.

Hu Liena’s Talent Clone ability was rogue, but Xuan Ming’s Talent Domain was even more rogue!

“When I wasn’t around, there shouldn’t have been any major problems in Heaven Dou City, right?” Xuan Ming asked.

“Major problems?” Bibi Dong thought for a moment.

“Qian Renxue came to see me a few times, mentioning your matter. She inexplicably had a triumphant air about her, which I didn’t quite understand.”

“In addition, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, and the Seven Great Families seem to have almost finished their discussions. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan also participated in this matter. They are now at odds with you.”

“And then there’s Dugu Bo. That old fellow was also a bit surprising; he actually reached ninety-four ranks. Yue Guan almost had an accident.”

“Yue Guan? They fought again?” Xuan Ming asked in confusion.

“You know their feud, don’t you?” Bibi Dong said.

Xuan Ming’s expression was a little unnatural. “Anything else?”

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

Xuan Ming thought for a moment, nodded, “Then I won’t disturb you.”

“Wait.” Bibi Dong grabbed Xuan Ming.

“Are you leaving already?”

“Isn’t Nana still in seclusion?” Xuan Ming asked in confusion.

Bibi Dong gently hugged him. “What about me?”

“Not planning to spend some time with me?”

“I…” Xuan Ming opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

“Do you remember what I told you that night?” Bibi Dong suddenly asked.

Xuan Ming was slightly startled. “Don’t let Nana know?”

Bibi Dong’s face flushed. “I told you to get rid of the scent on you when you came to find me!”

“What scent?” Xuan Ming asked in confusion.

“I came to find you as soon as I got back.”

“Really?” Bibi Dong was a little suspicious.

“Then what’s the situation with these two women’s scents on you?”

Xuan Ming was stunned. “You can smell that?”

Bibi Dong’s eyes changed slightly. “Oh? So you really have a new love?”

“What new love?” Xuan Ming was a little speechless.

“Do you want to smell if I still have the scent of a Spirit Beast on me?”

Bibi Dong leaned into Xuan Ming’s arms and took a deep breath.

“There is a little, indeed.”

“…” Xuan Ming.

You smell like that?
