I really am a Titled Douluo

Teaching Soul Hall!

Bi Bidong seemed somewhat uncomfortable, extending her hand to massage her forehead...

Immediately after, she looked down and asked Yueguan, "Yueguan, how long has it been since Xu Sheng and the others left the Pope Hall?"

The latter heard the question and answered truthfully, "Your Holiness, it has been two days since Xu Sheng and the others left the Pope Hall for the imperial palace!"

Bi Bidong pursed her lips and sighed, "So much time has already passed, yet it seems there has been no one sent to pass back any message from Xu Sheng, which is quite unusual."

"Could it be that the Hao Tian Sect has played some trick, causing them to encounter some accident??"

According to her understanding of Xu Sheng, if there had not been any mishaps en route, he should have sent someone to send a message!

Yet until now there had been no movements, eerily quiet...

Seeing this, Yueguan also felt the other's anxiety and didn't hesitate to speak reassuringly, "Your Holiness, I believe you may be overthinking it, Xu Sheng has Qianjun Douluo and Jiang Long Douluo to protect him; ordinary Soul Masters simply can't threaten his safety!"

"Moreover, even if they really did encounter strong Soul Masters sent by the upper three families, even if they can't overpower them, escaping should be something no one could stop!"

Bi Bidong, upon hearing this, glanced sideways at him with an extraordinarily calm tone, "Yueguan, did you say that just to comfort me?"

The former had just recently hinted that Qianjun Douluo and Jiang Long Douluo might also hold ulterior motives towards Xu Sheng!

Now, however, he provided a completely different answer, clearly not spoken from the heart!

Yueguan quickly denied, "I dare not, I was merely stating the truth!"

"Just..."

Bi Bidong narrowed her eyes, "Just what? Speak freely!"

The former swallowed and then cautiously answered, "Just... I suspect whether Xu Sheng has really headed to the imperial palace, now?"

Through interactions over the past period, he could feel that Qianjun Douluo and Jiang Long Douluo bore no malice towards Xu Sheng, and were even doing everything possible to win him over!

But that doesn't necessarily mean they would miss out on this opportunity to take Xu Sheng away!

At this, Bi Bidong sneered, "So that's what you're thinking, but Qian Dao Liu isn't foolish—if he truly wanted to win over Xu Sheng, he wouldn't use such a lowly method!"

Not to mention, Xu Sheng's wisdom is already beyond what his peers can reach!

Yueguan also immediately agreed, "Your Holiness is wise; it was an over-concern on my part!"

Thinking this, she shook her head, "Enough, Gui Mei!"

Gui Mei, who had not made an appearance, also walked out from within Black Mist, "Your Holiness, at your service!"

"Before, I had you go gather intelligence on the sect layouts of the upper three families, how did it go?"

Gui Mei nodded and recounted the intelligence he had gathered in detail...

"Your Holiness, after my investigations, I can confirm that the aura of the strong Soul Masters from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect and the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect has not vanished!"

"That means, they likely have no intention of taking action against Xu Sheng and the others!"

Bi Bidong was unsurprised, "Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect and Seven Treasures Glaze Sect are sensible enough not to meddle further in this affair, otherwise, what awaits them would be the fury of Martial Soul Hall!!"

Especially that Ning Fengzhi, always talking about how the upper three families share a common branch, but no matter when, he always considers for the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect!

Even stabbing the other two great sects in the back was no exception!

However, what truly piqued her interest was what the Hao Tian Clan would do!

With that thought, she asked again, "And the Hao Tian Clan? What have they been up to?"

Gui Mei was taken aback for a moment, then somewhat awkwardly responded, "Your Holiness, due to the Hao Tian Clan's overly secluded and easily exposed location, I did not dare to intrude on my own accord!"

Currently, the situation within the Hao Tian Clan was unknown; if she had entered alone and encountered all the Elders there, there was no guarantee she could leave alive!!

Because of this, he decisively chose not to delve deeper into investigation...

Bi Bidong frowned, clearly unsatisfied with the response, "Oh? Is the Hao Tian Clan so dangerous that even you dare not break in?"

Gui Mei sensed the disappointment of the former and, gritting his teeth, explained, "Your Holiness, I am not afraid of the Hao Tian Sect Elders, but... to be frank, if something happened to me, you..."

He didn't finish his sentence as it would be akin to slapping her in the face, but he expected Your Holiness would understand his meaning!

Bi Bidong took a deep breath, her gaze becoming icy, "Gui Mei, are you implying that without you, I am no longer the Pope??"

Although she knew Gui Mei had no such intention, she was still very angry!!

Yueguan, standing beside her, widened his eyes and hurriedly scolded, "Gui Mei, have you lost your mind? How dare you say such things before Your Holiness!!"

Gui Mei's forehead broke out in cold sweat, "Your Holiness, I did not mean that, please disregard what I just said!"

"In Martial Soul Hall, no one can shake Your Holiness's position, not even us!!"

To this, Bi Bidong issued only a warning, "I don't want to hear such talk again. Even though you and Yueguan are my trusted confidants, that doesn't mean I am not the Pope of Martial Soul Hall without you!!"

The two, of course, did not dare to say more, nodding and echoing, "Yes, Your Holiness!"

Bi Bidong had lost the desire to converse with the two and waved them off, "All right, you may leave. And call Nana and the others over!"

Come to think of it, it had been quite some time since she had checked on the cultivation status of Hulena and the other two. Although they had always been taught by Xu Sheng, she was after all their teacher in name and naturally could not abdicate responsibility!

...

After leaving, the Hao Tian Sect Elders and others!

One of them, his face burning with anger, exclaimed, "Damn it, Xu Sheng actually dared to humiliate us so, we cannot let this matter slide!"

Another, feeling similarly, agreed, "Indeed, we are the renowned leaders of the upper three families, the Hao Tian Clan, and yet a mere child dares to belittle us so!"

Only the Elder with the least seniority smacked his lips, rather awkwardly saying, "Well... speaking of which, didn't Xu Sheng basically let us off lightly?"

If anything, it was the Hao Tian Clan's face that couldn't stand the slight!

Without a doubt, he faced the wrath of the others...

"Shut it, we are being bullied to this extent and you still speak for the other side, have you betrayed our Hao Tian Clan?"

"I see you kept your mouth shut in the imperial palace, appears you've been bewitched by Martial Soul Hall!"

The leading Tang Xiao covered his forehead, now throbbing with veins, and shouted furiously, "Enough, all of you shut your mouths!"

"This time, it was our Hao Tian Clan who was in the wrong. From now on, don't make things difficult for Xu Sheng!!"
