Chapter 420: Unexpected Attack

...

Spirit City, Supreme Pontiff's Palace.

Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong held the gemstone scepter, sitting on the main seat, staring at the figure standing silently in the hall, her face turned pale and ugly.

There are few people in this world who can put pressure on her, only a few.

Bibi Dong tried to suppress the anger boiling in her heart and coldly stared at the person in front of her.

Because of him, the carefully prepared plan and grand ambition were ruined. She was almost going crazy.

Suddenly, a dark figure appeared beside Bibi Dong and revealed itself.

It was the Gui Mei, Ghost Douluo.

As Ghost Douluo appeared here, he immediately felt a terrifying pressure that immobilized his body, making him tremble in fear.

It should be noted that he was a Super Douluo powerhouse with a Level 95 spirit power.

Inside the hall, besides Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong, there was another person who caught Ghost Douluo's attention.

The moment he saw that person, Ghost Douluo's eyes shrank, as if he had witnessed something extremely terrifying, causing his body to tremble.

Ghost Douluo bowed respectfully and cautiously to that person, showing reverence and fear, and said, "This subordinate, Gui Mei, greets Elder."

"Mm."

Qian Daoliu, with his hands behind his back, only glanced up slightly, casually responded, and then closed his eyes, standing quietly in place.

At this moment, Ghost Douluo also understood what had happened tonight.

"Supreme Pontiff..."

Bibi Dong glanced at Ghost Douluo and said coldly, "I know about the matter. You may leave now."

"Yes!"

Ghost Douluo quickly responded and disappeared from the hall.

Inside the hall, only Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu remained confronting each other.

The tense atmosphere spread in the magnificent hall. It seemed like a long time had passed before a voice broke the silence.

"Do you want to make the Spirit Hall a laughingstock in front of the world by doing this?"

Bibi Dong almost shouted in anger.

By arranging the marriage between her disciple and the genius disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, forming an alliance between the Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the two most powerful forces on the continent, who could resist them?

And at the upcoming engagement ceremony, those neutral powers would also waver in their original intentions. If they didn't want their inheritance to be destroyed, they would naturally join the Spirit Hall's side.

With that, Bibi Dong's ambition of unifying the entire continent would become easier to accomplish.

But now, her carefully planned schemes were shattered at the last moment. How could she not be enraged?

If she could defeat Qian Daoliu, she would have already launched a full-scale battle.

"After this engagement ceremony is completed, most of the forces on this continent will lean towards our Spirit Hall! The goal of unifying the continent will be one step closer! Why aren't you acting based on this logic?"

However, Qian Daoliu remained unmoved.

He opened his eyes, looking calmly at the furious Bibi Dong, and said indifferently, "So what?"

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong's eyes narrowed, staring at him while tightly clenching her fists.

"I don't care about those insignificant rumors!"

"The so-called Spirit Hall is nothing compared to Xiao Xue's growth! Nothing is more important than her progress!" Qian Daoliu looked at Bibi Dong with calm eyes and said lightly.

"For me, the Spirit Hall is just a toy, a toy that will be handed over to Xiao Xue in the future."

Bibi Dong, you should know that you can sit in the position of the Supreme Pontiff only because you are Xiao Xue's mother, nothing more."

This remark made Bibi Dong's face even more ugly. She gritted her teeth and stared at Qian Daoliu with intense hatred.

But Qian Daoliu remained indifferent because he had absolute power.

...

Zeng Yi never expected that he could escape from Spirit City so easily.

It should be said that he left with great fanfare.

On this journey, nobody stopped or intercepted him, making it as easy as strolling through his own backyard.

Everything that happened felt like a dream to Zeng Yi, incredibly surreal.

"How come? Why are you still here? What are you standing here stupidly for?" Qian Renxue looked at the dazed Zeng Yi and couldn't help but laugh, reminding him.

The voice from behind snapped Zeng Yi back to reality, and he instantly realized that this was real, not a dream!

He turned around, his eyes filled with excitement as he looked at Qian Renxue. He was almost about to overflow with gratitude.

"Sister! You are my real sister! If you ever need help from me, I will be there for you, no matter the danger! No matter if it's crossing mountains of knives or seas of fire!" Zeng Yi patted his chest and promised.

"Oh~, do whatever I tell you to do, really?" Qian Renxue narrowed her eyes, staring at Zeng Yi.

"Well, of course. But I won't do anything that goes against my principles," Zeng Yi quickly added.

However, Zeng Yi wondered, "But come to think of it, why didn't you let me out earlier since you have such power?"

"Mind your own business! Just go already!" Qian Renxue's mood began to grow impatient, and she spoke in a slightly annoyed tone.

"So I'm bothering you, huh?" Zeng Yi felt a little sad after hearing her words.

"Although I am grateful to you, after some consideration, I can't leave." Zeng Yi pondered for a moment and finally shook his head.

Zeng Yi's words shocked Qian Renxue, her eyes widened in surprise as she stared at him.

"I spent so much effort to get you out, and now you tell me you won't leave? Are you joking with me?" Qian Renxue stepped forward, grabbing Zeng Yi's collar and glared at him angrily.

"Do you like Hu Liena? Are you reluctant to let go of such a beautiful girl?"

"It seems I misunderstood. Heh~"

Zeng Yi looked at Qian Renxue's agitated state, showing a bitter smile and helplessness on his face.

"I'm sorry, if it was a month ago, it might have been different. But now, if I leave, the engagement ceremony will become a joke, ridiculed by everyone. Your Spirit Hall might even take their resentment out on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. I'd rather not leave."

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue was momentarily stunned.

"So, you're worried about the sect?"

Facing Qian Renxue's gaze, Zeng Yi nodded.

She let go of Zeng Yi's collar and looked at him with a confused expression. "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect used and deceived you, so why go this far for them?"

Upon hearing this, an image of his master appeared in Zeng Yi's mind, and he remembered the words he said to him a few days ago.

"Perhaps the sect deceived me in the past, but they have also helped me a lot. Some things cannot be forgotten so easily, I can't be heartless."

Seeing Zeng Yi's serious look, Qian Renxue couldn't help but laugh.

"It's so typical of you. Go ahead and leave. I won't let the Spirit Hall bring trouble to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect because of this incident. So rest assured."

"Really?" Zeng Yi widened his eyes, looking at her with disbelief.

Qian Renxue nodded, "Yes, so hurry up and leave!"

However, Zeng Yi still had some doubts. Was she deceiving him?

"So, I can really leave?"

Zeng Yi asked again, which irritated Qian Renxue. She shouted, "Hurry up and disappear! Otherwise, I'll personally drive you away!"

As she spoke, golden spirit power surged through her body. Her golden hair fluttered, and one spirit ring after another appeared. The oppressive force of a Spirit Emperor enveloped Zeng Yi.

Qian Renxue's sudden change in temperament confused Zeng Yi, like the rain in June, unpredictable.

Could she be experiencing mood swings?

Since she said so, Zeng Yi had no choice but to believe her.

Looking at the shining Qian Renxue, a gentle smile appeared on Zeng Yi's face. He waved his hand and softly said, "Goodbye."

As the swirl of spirit power faded from his body, Qian Renxue stood quietly in place, watching him. A smile appeared on her face as well.

Watching his gradually distancing figure under the moonlight, his shadow stretched long, gradually disappearing into the distance in the direction of the moon.

For some reason, Qian Renxue felt a pang of heartache.

She didn't know when they would meet again.

Perhaps by then, everything would have changed.

"Zeng Yi!"

A voice came from behind. Zeng Yi's steps froze for a moment and stopped.

Turning around, he saw a figure swiftly throwing herself into his arms.

In that instant, Zeng Yi felt a layer of sweet softness on his lips.

Looking at the exquisite and peerless beauty in his arms, with her delicate, snowy complexion that seemed as delicate as a blown eggshell, a charming blush spread across her face.

Zeng Yi widened his eyes, his mind went blank for a moment, and he stood there, unable to think.
