"Young Master, you're back. Did your trip to the Soul Palace go smoothly?"
"Young Master, did the Soul Palace give you any trouble?"
As soon as Qian Renxue returned to the imperial city, Thorny Porpoise Douluo and Snake Spear Douluo asked with concern.
"return..."
Qian Renxue was about to speak, but suddenly felt that these two guys seemed a little too eager.
Do they really care about me, or do they care about the Soul Palace? Or do they want to know my attitude towards the Soul Palace so that they can report it to the Soul Palace?
Qian Renxue felt a little suspicious about the two Titled Douluo who had been guarding her for a long time.
"Young Master, is it inconvenient to talk about it?"
"Ah? Of course it's convenient." Qian Renxue remained calm and observed the two people's drawing lines calmly.
"The Soul Hall is very good and has been very friendly to me. Honestly, if I didn't have a mission and I wasn't a member of the Spirit Hall, I would have wanted to join the Soul Hall."
Thorny Porpoise Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo looked at each other, and the eye contact began again.
"What happened, young master?"
"I don't know? Did you get some benefits from the Soul Palace?"
"Oh no! Is the young master really going to join the Soul Palace?"
"No way? Maybe that's just what I said."
After the eye contact, Thorny Porpoise Douluo said:
"Young Master, no matter how great the Soul Hall is, it is not our Spirit Hall. Moreover, with the strength and influence the Soul Hall has demonstrated, it might even become a formidable enemy of our Spirit Hall."
"Yes, the Soul Hall is acting erratically and overbearingly. They will become a serious threat to the Spirit Hall in the long run."
Snake Spear Douluo also echoed.
Qian Renxue's heart trembled.
She didn't think that this could test the two people's loyalty, and she didn't think that they were loyal to her and the Spirit Hall.
On the contrary, she felt that the two of them were so eager to say this just to test her reaction.
What a deep plot! I can't fall for it.
"What nonsense! The Soul Palace has always been gentle in its dealings with people. Those who are targeted by the Soul Palace have done so by themselves. They have provoked the Soul Palace. A force like the Soul Palace is absolutely worthy of everyone's respect and will usher in supreme glory."
Thorny Porpoise Douluo: ...
Snake Spear Douluo: ...
Is my young master crazy? He has never praised other forces like this, not even his own Spirit Hall.
The two were silent, not knowing what medicine the young master had taken.
Is there something so extraordinary about the Soul Palace that makes the young master feel that it far surpasses the Spirit Palace?
A barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of Qian Renxue's mouth.
"As expected, you're silent. Did you feel you could figure out my attitude? Fortunately, this young master is smart."
But on second thought, Qian Renxue's heart sank again.
The two Titled Douluo around him are no longer trustworthy. He doesn't know the situation of the Spirit Hall. Maybe it's just as bad, and it's been infiltrated by the Spirit Hall like a sieve.
"Oh, it's all Bibi Dong's fault. It must be her wrongdoings that gave the Soul Palace the opportunity to exploit the situation."
Qian Renxue felt under tremendous pressure.
Maybe when the day comes that she succeeds the Pope, everyone in the Spirit Hall will be a Spirit Hall member except her.
When the time comes for her succession ceremony, the elders, priests and bishops will all jump out and say that they had no choice before, but now they want to be members of the Soul Palace. Wouldn't she be in trouble then?
No, no.
Qian Renxue quickly shook off this terrible thought.
My relationship with the Soul Palace is pretty good, and it will definitely not come to this.
Or...why not surrender sooner? It's better to join the Soul Palace sooner rather than later, when forced to do so.
"Send someone farther to find someone with a true martial spirit. Be quick and send more people. Xue Ye won't stop us."
Qian Renxue decided to put other things aside and at least be more proactive in helping the Soul Palace, at least to leave a good impression on the Palace Master.
"Yes, Palace Master."
Thorny Porpoise Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo became even more confused.
…
"Palace Master, are we going to upgrade the Soul Palace now? Don't we need to ask everyone in the fortress to leave first?"
In the Heavenly Palace, Huo Yuan asked.
After Ning Rongrong and Gu Rong left, Xiao Mu asked Huo Yuan to bring all the materials he had collected before, and prepare to upgrade the Soul Palace.
"No, it's not that noisy. There's no need to go through so much trouble."
To upgrade the Soul Palace, you can do it in the Soul Palace core of the Heavenly Palace, without mobilizing a large number of troops.
"oh."
Huo Yuan looked at Xiao Mu expectantly.
"Aren't you going back to absorb the soul bone?" Xiao Mu glanced at her and said.
Huo Yuan shook his head slightly.
"You can absorb soul bones anytime. You can't miss such a grand event as the Soul Palace upgrade."
Xiao Mu smiled and shook his head.
One material after another came into his hands from the soul guide, and then was thrown into the core of the Soul Palace from his hands.
The fist-sized core of the Soul Palace was like a black hole. As materials were placed into it, there was no movement at all, and it didn't even expand at all.
Finally, after putting all the materials into the Soul Palace core, a prompt appeared in Xiao Mu's mind.
[The Soul Palace Fortress has met the upgrade requirements. Do you want to immediately upgrade the Level 1 Soul Palace to the Level 2 Soul Palace?]
"yes."
The moment Xiao Mu opened his mouth, Huo Yuan looked outside the hall.
First, it was the distance. Huo Yuan's gaze was getting farther and farther away, and he felt that the distance between the buildings was rapidly widening.
Then, she felt herself rising rapidly, and her sight was gradually unobstructed by other buildings, allowing her to see farther.
It was obvious that the ground beneath their feet was rising.
And all this happened silently. If it weren't for the changes she saw with her eyes, she wouldn't have felt even a slight tremor based on her feelings alone.
Oh my god.
Although she had witnessed the appearance of the Soul Palace with her own eyes, the sight of the Soul Palace's upgrade still made her feel amazed and incredible.
For such a powerful Soul Palace and for a Palace Master who is so considerate of his subordinates, how could she not give everything for the Soul Palace?
Not only in the outside world, but also in the Heavenly Palace, great changes have taken place.
The first is the hall where Huo Yuan and Xiao Mu are located. Its area is rapidly expanding and is even larger than the square outside the Tiandou Imperial City.
The Soul Hall core and the Transmission Monument still exist, but the Transmission Monument has gradually changed from a stone tablet half a person's height to a huge stone several people's height.
The two words "Chuan Gong" on the stone are mysterious and profound, as if they contain the ultimate truth of the world, making people unable to help but look here.
Not only that, a clear spring appeared in the hall.
Huo Yuan poked his head out to look, and saw that the spring water was clear and deep, as if it went straight to the center of the earth.
Huo Yuan withdrew his gaze and looked around.
The walls of the Heavenly Palace were gradually covered with mysterious patterns, which looked majestic and solemn, yet deeply attracted the curiosity of others.
Several pillars in the hall were pitch black, and there seemed to be something strange moving on them. Huo Yuan looked carefully, but could not see clearly.
After taking a quick look at the changes inside the hall, Huo Yuan quickly walked out of the hall.
Just a large hall has undergone such changes. I wonder what the entire Soul Palace Fortress has become.
"Oh My God."
Before walking out of the gate, Huo Yuan exclaimed when he saw the scene outside the hall.
"Where am I? Is this still the Heavenly Palace? Is this still the Soul Palace?"
