Pope Hall!
Feeling somewhat displeased, Bi Bidong turned her gaze toward Yueguan and Gui Mei below...
Then, she questioned, "Yueguan, Gui Mei, what's the situation with the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect?"
At her words, Gui Mei was the first to respond, "Your Holiness, according to the latest information, the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, with the support of reinforcements from various directions, has temporarily established a relatively solid defense line. It seems unlikely that the abyssal creatures can break through in a short time!"
Bi Bidong frowned slightly, "Unable to break through in a short time? Yet this time, the abyssal creatures attacking the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect seem to have gathered in large numbers, a stark contrast to the assault on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect!"
Gui Mei fell silent upon hearing this...
Indeed, the previous information only indicated short-term safety; as for future scenarios, specific intelligence has yet to be received!
Seeing this, Yueguan interjected coldly, "This... Your Holiness, didn't the Worship Hall also send most of the guest elders over there for reinforcement? With them present, I believe the defense line could easily be maintained!"
"At the very least, they can ensure Xu Sheng's safe escape!!"
Although reluctant to admit it, every person from the Worship Hall is no weaker than myself or Gui Mei!
Even facing a tricky situation, they could smoothly ensure Xu Sheng's escape!
Upon receiving this response, Bi Bidong sneered coldly, "The bunch from the Worship Hall are all high-minded folks. Even if they go to the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, they might not assist in fighting against the abyssal creatures!"
Even I, as the Pope, cannot command them, let alone the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect!
Both Yueguan and Gui Mei agreed in unison, "Your Holiness is absolutely right"
"Shall we go and investigate the latest news then?"
It's been so long without any new updates; perhaps the elite dispatched from the Martial Soul Hall have either forgotten or all perished at the hands of the abyssal creatures!!
Just as Bi Bidong was about to speak, a Spirit Hall Soldier stepped in, bowing slightly, "Your Holiness, the elite Soul Masters sent to support the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect have returned!!"
Bi Bidong's eyes brightened, "Oh?? They've already returned? It seems the abyssal creatures have been repelled by the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect!!"
Immediately, she ordered, "Go, have them come over immediately!!"
"Yes, Your Holiness!!"
Soon after, the elite Soul Masters dispatched to the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect arrived at the main hall...
Facing Bi Bidong above, they said in unison, "Greetings, Your Holiness!"
Bi Bidong scrutinized them, one word at a time, "If I'm not mistaken, this time, the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect managed to fend off the abyssal creatures' attack, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to return alive!"
The leading Soul Master nodded, "Indeed, Your Holiness, with the support from various forces, the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect successfully repelled the abyssal creatures' attack!!"
"Currently, the abyssal creatures have withdrawn and returned to the Aquipeia Forest!"
Bi Bidong's expression eased somewhat, "Very well, sending you elite reinforcements wasn't in vain. How are the casualties this time??"
The former took a deep breath and replied truthfully, "Your Holiness, most of them sustained minor injuries, with only a few suffering serious injuries and sacrifices, precise numbers are yet to be calculated"
Bi Bidong nodded slightly...
But soon, she seemed to have noticed something...
"Hmm?? Why do I feel like someone is missing!"
Gui Mei immediately understood her meaning, "Your Holiness, you must mean Xu Sheng"
Only then did Bi Bidong realize that among these people, Xu Sheng was not present...
At once, she demanded, "Indeed, where is Xu Sheng? Why hasn't he returned with you all!"
"Don't tell me you left him behind and returned to the Pope Hall on your own!!"
Saying this, there was a hint of anger in her tone...
This Soul Master was somewhat frightened and quickly explained, "No, Your Holiness, we did not abandon His Highness!"
Bi Bidong's gaze remained icy, "Then provide a reasonable explanation, or else..."
The former trembled as he replied, "Your Holiness, His... His Highness didn't return with us to the Pope Hall because the guest elders from the Worship Hall took him to the Worship Hall!!"
Instantly, Bi Bidong reprimanded, "Went to the Worship Hall?? This group indeed doesn't miss any chance to win over Xu Sheng!"
The Soul Masters present hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Your Holiness, please calm down!!"
They were afraid of being implicated due to this incident!!
Bi Bidong gave them a glance, impatiently waving her hand, "Get out, all of you!"
As soon as she spoke, the Soul Masters breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and left the main hall...
At this moment, Gui Mei finally spoke, "Your Holiness, will there be any issue with Xu Sheng being taken to the Worship Hall?"
Bi Bidong expressed her speechless thought, "Issue? How could there be any issue, Qian Dao Liu and those people are eager to win over Xu Sheng, it's impossible for him to encounter any trouble"
Gui Mei didn't contest but continued, "Perhaps I or Yueguan should head to the Worship Hall to bring Xu Sheng back??"
Before the former could respond, Yueguan rolled his eyes, "Gui Mei, are you out of your mind?? Even if we two went together, it is not possible to bring Xu Sheng back!"
Mind you, those folks from the Worship Hall look at us as if they're seeing the enemy!
Not directly attacking us would already be fortunate enough!!
Bi Bidong waved her hand to dismiss the suggestion, "No need to go to the Worship Hall. Given my understanding of Xu Sheng, he'll probably be back soon after his visit!"
"In the meantime, stay in the Pope Hall as who knows, this might be the abyssal creatures' next target of attack!!"
...
Worship Hall!
Qian Dao Liu stood with hands behind his back, watching Tang San as he cultivated in a cross-legged posture...
Seeming to notice something, Tang San abruptly opened his eyes, stood up, and said respectfully to the former, "Grand Elder, why have you come?"
Qian Dao Liu smiled as he inquired, "Just visiting you; since the guest elders are not here lately, you must feel quite lonely, right?"
Tang San shook his head, "Not lonely, as I spend most of my time cultivating anyway!!"
At this moment, his eyes turned extremely fierce...
"When I become strong enough, I will personally seek revenge for Moxiong Douluo!!!"
Qian Dao Liu's lips curled slightly, "Good, Tang San, it seems you've thoroughly thought things through after the previous events!"
"In this way, Moxiong's efforts weren't in vain"
Tang San took a deep breath, "Naturally, Moxiong Douluo used his life to protect me, I will never dare forget it!!"
Qian Dao Liu said nothing more but walked to his side, reaching out to pat his shoulder...
"Though studying diligently is good, remember to calm your mind down"
The present Tang San has fully become a member of the Worship Hall!
