Chapter 2940: Unexpected_1

Poison Douluo was immediately dumbfounded. Had he not heard wrong just now?

Not only did Bi Bidong not let him and Yueguan leave, but she actually agreed just like that?

He had been seriously worried about her taking action against the civilians and Soul Masters of Martial Soul City!!

Bi Bidong naturally noticed the change in his expression and unhesitatingly pursued the matter. "Poison Douluo, you seem to be very surprised by my answer?"

Poison Douluo didn't deny it and nodded, "Indeed, my reputation is not that great on the Continent. I did not expect the Pope to agree!"

Bi Bidong also spoke in a calm tone, "Poison Douluo jests. Although you are not willing to join Spirit Hall, there should still be a stable relationship between us!"

Although Poison Douluo understood the implication, he did not point it out...

"What the Pope has said is also true!"

Afterward, they conversed briefly...

Bi Bidong then ordered Yueguan to take Poison Douluo and the other person out of the hall...

Not until the hall was left with only the former, did Gui Mei step out from the shadows...

With a puzzled face, he said, "Pope, is it really okay to let Poison Douluo get close to Evil Moon and the others? What if he was sent by the Tian Dou Imperial Family..."

He was still somewhat unable to accept Poison Douluo's arrival!

Bi Bidong glanced at him, shook her head and said, "That should be impossible, the Tian Dou Imperial Family still needs a lot of help from Spirit Hall!"

"As the emperor, Xue Beng will consider the big picture and is unlikely to do something that harms others without benefiting himself!"

"Moreover, without the support of Spirit Hall, today's Tian Dou Empire would absolutely be invaded by the Xing Luo Empire!!"

The current Tian Dou Empire, both in Soul Master strength and military force, was far inferior to the Xing Luo Empire!

The reason there had been no conflict was also because of the special existence of Spirit Hall!!

Gui Mei opened his mouth, then swallowed his words back down...

In the end, he could only utter one sentence...

"Pope, I was ignorant. However, just in case, I will also monitor Poison Douluo!!"

If he and Yueguan stayed together, even if Poison Douluo suddenly made a move, they could use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill to control him!!

Bi Bidong didn't refuse and closed her eyes to indicate her tacit agreement...

After gesturing, Gui Mei merged back into the darkness...

...

In Pope Hall, at the academy!

Seeing Xu Sheng finally appear, Hulena complained with a resentful face, "Xu Sheng, where did you go? You suddenly disappeared while we were talking!!"

Flame nodded in agreement, "Yeah, you didn't even say goodbye before leaving. We thought something happened to you!"

Evil Moon then inquired, "Xu Sheng, you must have gone to scout the situation at Pope Hall just now?"

Xu Sheng looked at Evil Moon and spoke softly, "Hmm, I also roughly know why all the soldiers of Pope Hall have left."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes sparkled. "Xu Sheng, tell us, what exactly happened?"

They, being in the academy, had no clue about any news at all!

Xu Sheng didn't keep them in suspense and honestly replied, "It's because Poison Douluo entered Martial Soul City, so our teacher... the Pope, had to gather most of the Spirit Hall Soldiers to welcome him!"

The welcome was a pretense, the true purpose was deterrence!

Evil Moon's eyes widened incredulously, "What... What? Poison Douluo? He entered Martial Soul City?"

Poison Douluo's notorious reputation was well-known throughout the entire Continent!

Flame raised an eyebrow, showing disdain as he said, "Evil Moon, why are you so surprised? It's just a Titled Douluo, surely not worth such a commotion from His Holiness the Pope, right?"

Not counting the guest elders from the Worship Hall, just the Spirit Hall itself has six or seven Titled Douluo!!

Hulena rolled her eyes at him and explained, "Flame, it's because you often daydream during lessons. That Poison Douluo is indeed only a Titled Douluo and has not yet reached the level of a Hyper Douluo"

"But his threat level is greater than that of most Hyper Douluo!"

Evil Moon added, "Mhm, this Poison Douluo is extremely proficient in using poison. With a wave of his hands, he could engulf an entire city in poison fog!!"

Flame also realized the gravity of the situation and exclaimed in shock, "Really... true or false? Isn't that an exaggeration? Wouldn't it be very dangerous to let him into Martial Soul City?"

I actually looked down on such a dangerous character!

Evil Moon again nodded affirmatively, "That's exactly why His Holiness the Pope dispatched so many Spirit Hall Soldiers to go there, to prevent any accidents!!"

Xu Sheng chuckled lightly, "Evil Moon, your analysis isn't bad. If Flame had your brains, perhaps Nana wouldn't be the goddess anymore!"

But Hulena felt somewhat displeased and retorted, "Xu Sheng, are you suggesting that I'm inferior to Flame?"

Xu Sheng did not avoid the topic, "In terms of facts, Nana, your talent indeed falls short of Flame!"

Flame couldn't help but show a touch of emotion, "Xu Sheng, I didn't think you would actually praise me..."

Although I don't want to compete with the person I like, receiving acknowledgement also makes me exceptionally happy...

Evil Moon, however, gave him a look of pity, "Flame, Xu Sheng is praising you, it's true, but what he's also saying is that you're not the sharpest tool in the shed!"

Flame's moment of emotion immediately vanished, and he retorted angrily, "What, Evil Moon, how dare you speak to me like that? I should have knocked you down a few days ago!"

Evil Moon crossed his arms and mercilessly taunted, "Could you really do that? With your brains, even in a few decades, you still wouldn't be able to defeat me!"

"You're asking for it!!"

"Come and hit me then, dummy!!"

Watching the two of them, Hulena couldn't help but bow her head, thinking to herself, "It seems the teacher chose me to be the goddess as a last resort..."

I can't help but feel a bit sad...

Xu Sheng also looked into the distance, falling into contemplation...

"That Du Gu Bo actually brought along his granddaughter, I've always had a bad premonition..."

"Hopefully, it's not aimed at me??"

...

Moon Pavilion!

Tang Yuehua looked at Xue Qinghe with an urgent tone, "Crown Prince, is there still no news about Tang San?"

It's been several days since Tang Hao came looking for me...

I wonder whether he has found Tang San!

The only hope now lies with Xue Qinghe!

On hearing this, Xue Qinghe responded with regret, "I'm sorry, Chief Tang, I've done my best. There truly is no sign of Tang San near the imperial palace. Perhaps he has already gone to another kingdom!"

Tang Yuehua was a bit disappointed, but still said, "There's no need to apologize, Crown Prince. Perhaps, as you said, Tang San has already left this place!"

Xue Qinghe nodded understandingly and changed the subject, "Then, Chief Tang, what will you do now? Tang Hao must have had great expectations when entrusting Tang San to you... Now that he has suddenly disappeared, I'm afraid..."

Tang Yuehua revealed a bittersweet smile and sighed, "Crown Prince, I won't conceal it from you, Hao... Tang Hao has already come looking for me a few days ago, and we even had quite a dispute over Tang San's disappearance..."
