. Seeing this, Lin Jie could only resist. After all, it was he who had forced his way into the Pope's Palace.
Five spirit rings of yellow, purple, and black instantly appeared on Lin Jie's body, radiating a powerful aura.
"How is this possible? You actually..." The Knight Captain stared at the spirit rings on Lin Jie's body in astonishment.
However, despite his surprise, he would not stop his attacks. He would never let a criminal like Lin Jie, who had forced his way into the Pope's Palace, go unpunished.
With a low roar, the Violent Bear Martial Spirit instantly possessed him, and his entire body suddenly grew in size, launching a powerful attack towards Lin Jie with unstoppable force.
At this moment, a yellow figure appeared in front of him, gently blocking his unstoppable attack with a finger.
Seeing the person who suddenly blocked his attack, the Knight Captain's eyes flashed with surprise, but then he instantly recovered and said respectfully, "Greetings, Elder Yue."
"Well, all right, you may withdraw," Yue Guan said calmly.
"But, Elder Yue, he..." The Knight Captain hadn't finished speaking when he saw Yue Guan's look and had to swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"Yes," the Knight Captain said respectfully. With Elder Yue around, they had no room to interfere. Then he took the unconscious accomplice and left.
The moment he saw Yue Guan appear, Lin Jie had been standing there. He knew that things seemed to be pretty much as he imagined.
Seeing the man who appeared, Zhu Zhuyun was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word.
"Greetings, Elder Yue." At this time, Lin Jie bowed to Yue Guan.
Yue Guan looked at Lin Jie and said in his bewitching voice, "Boy, you're quite brave. You actually dared to break into the Spirit Hall."
"Elder Yue, you're joking. How could I have such courage? It was a complete misunderstanding. I'm actually here to join the Spirit Hall."
"Join the Spirit Hall, hehe." Yue Guan smiled strangely, a glint of wonder in his eyes. But then, thinking of her words, he continued, "Let's go. His Holiness the Pope is waiting for you."
"Wait a moment, Elder Yue. I have something for you."
"Giving it to me, boy. Do you know what you're doing?"
"I'm sure Elder Yue will appreciate my gift."
Yue Guan wasn't particularly interested in Lin Jie's proposed gift. At his Titled Douluo level, there weren't many things he could be interested in.
At this point, Lin Jie pulled out a magical herb he'd long collected, the Wonderful Sky-reaching Chrysanthemum. Since he was about to join the Spirit Hall, he needed to win over some people. And he just happened to have a Wonderful Sky-reaching Chrysanthemum, which would undoubtedly be the perfect way to win over Chrysanthemum Douluo.
Yue Guan, who had initially shown little interest in Lin Jie's possessions, shuddered violently the moment Lin Jie produced the box. He sensed the aura of his shared origin. "Boy, what's that in your hand?"
"It's a gift for Elder Yue. The Wonderful Mushroom-Tongtian Chrysanthemum."
"What?"
Lin Jie then opened the jade box, revealing a perfectly preserved Wonderful Mushroom-Tongtian Chrysanthemum nestling peacefully within.
"What is this?" Yue Guan stared at the box in amazement, then approached Lin Jie, the immortal herb already in his hands.
"It truly is an immortal item. The Wonderful Mushroom-Tongtian Chrysanthemum." Yue Guan's voice trembled slightly. Unbelievable was the excitement within him.
Ju Douluo, upon receiving it, closed his eyes, entranced, unable to contain his emotions.
Lin Jie understood Ju Douluo's excitement. For Dai Mubai, the Wonderful Mushroom-Tongtian Chrysanthemum possessed the potential to become a god.
And for Ju Douluo, possessing the Wonderful Mushroom-Tongtian Chrysanthemum as his spirit, the benefits of consuming it would undoubtedly be even greater!
After a while, Yue Guan realized he was getting a bit agitated. He took a deep breath and looked at Lin Jie, "Boy, how did you get this immortal herb?" " I
found it by accident. I wonder if Elder Yue likes it."
"I'll accept it. But I won't let you give it away for free. Tell me, what do you want?"
"Elder Yue, you're too polite. I just hope you'll take care of me in the future. I don't have any requests. Also, regarding the incident of breaking into the Pope's Palace just now, I hope you..."
"Yes. No problem. Although you haven't officially joined the Spirit Hall yet, I'll take the blame for your breaking into the Pope's Palace."
Yue Guan glanced at Zhu Zhuyun, who looked uneasy beside Lin Jie. He remembered that this girl seemed to be from the Star Luo Empire. Why was she with this boy?
But he didn't think too much about it. He just wanted to get back and study the Qirong Tongtian Ju.
"Come with me. I'll take you to see His Holiness the Pope."
Lin Jie followed Yue Guan, and Zhu Zhuyun had to muster up the courage to follow Lin Jie.
Under Yue Guan's guidance, Lin Jie arrived at the outside of a large hall of the Pope's Palace very smoothly.
After Yue Guan went in to report, Lin Jie walked in soon. Zhu Zhuyun could only pretend to be calm and stood outside waiting for Lin Jie.
Yue Guan had already left after Lin Jie entered. As for where he went, Lin Jie knew without a guess.
When Lin Jie walked inside and saw Bibi Dong again, he was still shocked.
At this time, Lin Jie bowed and saluted, "Greetings to His Holiness the Pope."
Bibi Dong put the documents in her hand at ease, looked at Lin Jie, and said lightly, "No need for formalities."
"Welcome to the Spirit Hall. Lin Jie, from today on, you are a member of the Spirit Hall. As for the past, I will not pursue any of it." Whether she was referring to Lin Jie's forced entry into the Pope's Palace, the previous robbery and killing, or the competition, it didn't matter. What mattered was her broad-mindedness, worthy of being the most powerful woman on the continent.
Lin Jie glanced at Bibi Dong. Her broad-mindedness was indeed remarkable.
Gazing at the beautiful and noble Bibi Dong before him, Lin Jie sighed inwardly. Her ability to achieve this was truly remarkable.
"Since His Holiness has spoken so, Lin Jie will set aside all the past and serve you and the Spirit Hall wholeheartedly. Any second
thoughts will be met with devastating consequences." "Excellent! Your willingness to accept such a request is well worth my personal audience. Rest assured, our Spirit Hall will not neglect a talent like you. I can consider arranging any position you desire."
Since he had decided to join the Spirit Hall, he had to offer some kind words. However, Lin Jie did serve Bibi Dong and the Spirit Hall. As for who would rule the Spirit Hall in the future, that was hard to say. And regarding the Five Thunderbolts, Lin Jie really wanted to test it out to see whether his thunder was more powerful or that thunder was more powerful.
"Your Holiness, I haven't done anything for the Spirit Hall yet, so how can I ask for a position? This matter isn't urgent right now. I have something I want to give Your Holiness. It's incredibly powerful and rare. I just observed the Knights guarding the Palace outside the Pope's Palace. While they're quite powerful, if I used that thing, I could easily dispatch them."
"You're talking about the Soul Power Grenade?"
"Your Holiness knows about Soul Power Grenade."
"I've heard Nana talk about it. It's really quite powerful."
"Not only the Soul Power Grenade, but also this thing." Lin Jie finished, pulling out the Soul Power Pistol.
"At this time," Bibi Dong questioned.
"This is a soul guide pistol. It is very powerful, no less powerful than a soul grenade, and it is easy to use. If it can be mass-produced and then equipped to the knights of my Spirit Hall, then the strength of the Spirit Hall will be much greater."
"You said that its power is no weaker than a soul grenade." "
That's right. Your Holiness, can you find a venue so that I can experiment for you? As for whether the power is really as strong as I said, you will know after a try."
"Well, okay."
Bibi Dong was very interested in the soul guide pistol. If it could be equipped to the Spirit Hall together with the soul grenade, then what she wanted to do would be much simpler.
"By the way, the woman outside is from the Zhu family of the Xingluo Empire, right? Why is she with you?"
"Your Holiness, her name is Zhu Zhuyun, and she is the eldest daughter of the Zhu family of the Xingluo Empire. She wanted to rob and kill me, but was captured by me. She is my captive for the time being. Because she and I have some connection, I am keeping her for the time being. But Your Holiness, don't worry, I will take care of her."
"Well, this is your business, you can handle it yourself. Come with me."
Lin Jie followed Bibi Dong to an empty square, and Zhu Zhuyun had been taken to other places to settle down. As long as she wanted to live, she didn't dare to run around.
Arriving in the open square, Bibi Dong opened her rosy lips, "Then let me see what you call soul-powered grenades and soul-guided pistols."
"Yes, Your Holiness. I wonder if Your Holiness could find someone to test them, or if Your Holiness could come in person."
"I'll do it myself. I'd like to test the power of your soul-powered pistols."
"Excuse me. Although Your Holiness is powerful, please be careful. My pistols are quite powerful."
"No problem. Come on, I'd love to know how powerful your guns are."
Jiang Liu walked over ten meters away, and in the blink of an eye, two soul-guided pistols appeared in his hands. While not as powerful as the electromagnetic railgun, they were still quite potent.
Bang, bang.
A few shots rang out, and bullets, swift as lightning, shot towards Bibi Dong with unstoppable force.
Bibi Dong, who was over ten meters away, saw the incoming energy bullets, her eyes brightening. With her current strength, she could naturally sense their power. The speed and penetrating power of this attack were too much for an ordinary Soul Emperor to block. A single carelessness could easily lead to her being killed.
Seeing the energy bullets approaching, Bibi Dong thrust her Pope's Staff to the ground, a soul ring igniting. The attack from the soul guide pistol suddenly stopped a meter in front of her.
Bang, bang.
Two more gunshots rang out, and energy bullets blasted in with lightning speed. The two energy beams that had paused in front of Bibi Dong swayed, then suddenly merged with the energy from behind to form a larger energy bullet.
Seeing this, Bibi Dong raised her eyebrows, and her soul power output increased.
Bang.
At this moment, the paused bullet suddenly exploded.
With a roar, the energy explosion caused a whistling sound.
At this moment, Bibi Dong raised her Pope's Staff again, increasing her soul power output.
