Chapter 3340: Inviting Ning Fengzhi

As the competition concluded, the audience of the final match also dispersed, clearly feeling very satisfied...

The only regret was that they didn't know what the Soul Fusion Skill used by Evil Moon and Hulena actually looked like!

From start to finish, they could only see the purplish-red fog...

The deacon responsible for hosting the match respectfully said to Bi Bidong, "Your Holiness, since the match has ended, I shall take my leave first."

The latter merely responded with a light "hmm"...

Although the match lasted longer than expected, Hulena and the others still won with absolute dominance, which brought her great reassurance...

However, just as she was about to take action, Yueguan who had been waiting for the opportunity, immediately appeared...

With a solemn expression, he said, "Your Holiness, please wait, I have a matter to report to you!"

Bi Bidong slightly frowned, "Yueguan, whatever it is can be reported later, right now we should be celebrating Nana and the others' victory in the competition!"

Moreover, Xue Ye and the others had not left yet; it wasn't a good time to discuss matters!

Yueguan rarely disobeyed and once again said, "But Your Holiness, the matter I want to discuss involves abyssal creatures!"

Bi Bidong was startled and exclaimed in surprise, "Abyssal creatures??"

"Could it be that our scouts have news about the abyssal creatures?"

Yueguan shook his head and denied, "No... the situation is somewhat bad!"

If it were merely such a matter, he would not have reported it now!!

Seeming to sense that something was amiss, Bi Bidong's gaze swept over towards Xue Ye and the others not too far away...

"Speak, what exactly is the matter!"

Yueguan breathed a sigh of relief and whispered in her ear, "Your Holiness, the situation is as follows!"

After listening, Bi Bidong's expression suddenly turned from sunny to overcast as she said coldly, "Is this really true?"

She had never imagined that such a serious incident could occur while they were hosting a friendly match!

Yueguan said with certainty, "It's true, I would never joke about such a matter!"

"Besides, Gu Rong has most likely already informed Ning Fengzhi."

To put it simply, it was probably impossible to keep the existence of the abyssal creatures a secret!

Bi Bidong waved her hand dismissively, "No matter, these abyssal creatures really are audacious beyond measure, daring to sneak into Martial Soul City under the cover of darkness!"

After pausing for a moment, she added, "Yueguan, you have done very well this time, if this were to come to light, our Martial Soul Hall would be humiliated!!"

Yueguan was somewhat astonished, "Your Holiness flatters me, I was only doing my duty!!"

Being recognized by Your Holiness was worth his efforts in desperately stopping the abyssal creatures from causing widespread destruction!

Bi Bidong suppressed her emotions and reminded, "Alright, for now, let's not speak of this to anyone. As for the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, I will handle it."

Yueguan naturally had no reason to argue, and nodded, "Yes, Your Holiness, in that case, I shall take my leave now!!"

The abyssal creature that was just killed still needed to be dealt with!!

However, Bi Bidong suddenly interjected, "Wait..."

Yueguan looked puzzled, "Your Holiness, do you have any other instructions?"

She pursed her lips and pressed on, "During this time, you haven't received any response from Gui Mei, have you?"

Xu Sheng and Gui Mei had left Martial Soul City several days ago, but until now, there's been not a whiff of news, and she always had a sense of foreboding!

Yueguan shook his head, "Lao Gui didn't make contact on his initiative, but... according to the intelligence we planted in the Xingluo Empire, it seems they made an appearance in some coastal city!!"

Bi Bidong's pupils contracted sharply, exclaiming, "What?? The Xingluo Empire? Didn't I send Gui Mei to take Xu Sheng to evade assassination? Why would they go to the Xingluo Empire!"

She had thought they wouldn't be too far from Martial Soul City, but unexpectedly, they had actually entered the territory of the Xingluo Empire!!

Yueguan immediately bowed deeply, hastily explaining, "Your Holiness, pacify your anger, we can't yet be sure of the authenticity of this message, but I have already informed the members of Martial Soul Hall lurking in the Xingluo Empire to conduct a secret investigation!"

"Once there's news, it will be immediately conveyed back!!"

Given Lao Gui's character, it was not possible for him to allow Xu Sheng to leave the Tiandou Empire of his own accord!

There must be some other reason!!

Bi Bidong suppressed the anger at the bottom of her heart and said coldly, "Good, if it is confirmed that Gui Mei and the others are in the Xingluo Empire, immediately notify them to return to Martial Soul City!!"

Although she didn't know why Xu Sheng went to the Xingluo Empire, it was quite clear that it was definitely not just to evade pursuit!

He must have had his own agenda!!

Yueguan's back unconsciously trembled a bit, "Yes, Your Holiness!"

Bi Bidong closed her eyes, "Alright, you may leave!"

Yueguan said no more and promptly left with a flash...

Only after his presence had disappeared did Bi Bidong reopen her eyes and stepped forward to approach Xue Ye and Ning Fengzhi...

She first nodded to the former as a sign of greeting, then turned to the latter and said, "Sect Master Ning, could you possibly come to Pope Hall for a chat later??"

Ning Fengzhi was stunned, but after a glance at Xue Ye, hesitated, "This..."

If he rashly agreed to go to Pope Hall, it would inevitably make His Majesty Xue Ye overthink!

Unexpectedly, Xue Ye calmly replied, "Since Your Holiness has graciously invited, then Sect Master Ning, you should accept!"

With the affirmative response, Ning Fengzhi then replied, "Since His Majesty Xue Ye has said so, naturally I have no reason to refuse!"

Seeing this, Xue Ye once again said, "There are still matters I need to attend to in the imperial palace, so I won't stay long. Qing He, let's go!"

As his words fell, the hitherto silent Xue Qinghe also stood up, gave a sign to Ning Fengzhi and Bi Bidong, and followed the former to leave...

Although he did not know why Bi Bidong invited Ning Fengzhi to Pope Hall, the latter was not so easily swayed!

Otherwise, Martial Soul Hall would not regard the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect as a thorn in their side!

Seeing them all leave, Bi Bidong finally smiled slightly, "Well then, Sect Master Ning, please follow me!"

...

After arriving at Pope Hall!

Just as he had taken his seat, Ning Fengzhi was the first to speak out, "May I enquire why Your Holiness has invited me here? What matters are you intending to discuss??"

Although he said so, he already had a vague idea...

Bi Bidong didn't beat around the bush, and replied very straightforwardly, "Sect Master Ning, there's no need to be nervous. The reason for inviting you here is actually concerning the matter of the abyssal creature that caused trouble during the friendly match period!"

Ning Fengzhi's eyebrow slightly furrowed, "Abyssal creature? What is that??"

Seeing his genuinely puzzled expression, Bi Bidong immediately realized that Gu Rong probably hadn't had the chance to tell him about the situation...

"It seems Bone Douluo hasn't informed Sect Master Ning yet, no matter, I will explain then!"
