Yueguan hesitated slightly, but out of trust for Bi Bidong, he nodded in understanding...
It was then that Bi Bidong turned to Gui Mei and said, "Gui Mei, follow me back to Pope Hall!"
Gui Mei did not object, but out of goodwill, he reminded, "Yes, but Your Holiness, what about these Spirit Hall soldiers??"
Without much thought, Bi Bidong replied, "They will naturally return to Pope Hall as well. Who is more important compared to Martial Soul City, I don't need to say, right?"
The main purpose of leading so many Spirit Hall soul masters here was to warn Du Gu Bo and Prince Xue Xing that this was Spirit Hall's territory and to have them restrain their actions a bit more!
Gui Mei bowed his head, "I understand, Your Holiness!"
Bi Bidong did not say more, she grasped the Purple Crystal Scepter tightly and stepped away from this place...
Only then did Gui Mei turn to glance at Yueguan, "Yueguan, you better keep a close watch, don't let any accidents happen!"
The latter replied with a reassuring look, "Don't worry. Whatever Du Gu Bo wants to do, he won't escape my surveillance!"
His spiritual power was stronger than his opponent's, and as long as it wasn't deliberately revealed, it would be impossible for him to be discovered in a short period of time!
...
After they left, Prince Xue Xing, still feeling uneasy, turned to Du Gu Bo and inquired, "Poison Douluo, those from Pope Hall seem to bear great hostility towards you. The last few times I came to Martial Soul City, this didn't happen!"
He wasn't afraid of Spirit Hall, it was just that, given the situation just now, had a fight broken out, no one other than Du Gu Bo would have been able to leave Martial Soul City alive!
After all, the other side had Yueguan and Gui Mei, two Hyper Douluo level powerhouses, along with a enigmatic Pope!!
Upon hearing this, Du Gu Bo sighed, "Who calls for having not such a good reputation in the Continent? It's not surprising that Spirit Hall's people are wary of me."
"It's just that it has disturbed Prince Xue Xing's pleasure."
Xue Xing waved his hand indifferently, "No matter, I've already got what I wanted, staying on in Martial Soul City serves no purpose!"
"Returning to the imperial palace earlier puts my mind at ease, too!"
Hearing this, Du Gu Bo hesitated for a moment then explained, "Prince Xue Xing, I'm afraid you need to return to the imperial palace first!"
Xue Xing seemed to sense something and asked suspiciously, "Poison Douluo, what do you mean by this?"
Could it be that his agreement to come to Martial Soul City was not just to protect himself?
After glancing at Dugu Yan, Du Gu Bo found an excuse and explained, "Well, Yan Zi she still wants to stay in Martial Soul City for a while, and I am very concerned about her safety, so..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but he trusted that the other party would understand!
Prince Xue Xing's gaze lingered on Du Gu Bo and Dugu Yan...
He immediately judged that the facts were not as they seemed!
Nevertheless, out of trust, he nodded...
"If that's the case, then I shall return to the imperial palace first with these soldiers. Poison Douluo, you must be careful. That Pope, it is said, is a ruthless character!"
Du Gu Bo nodded slightly, "Hmm, I know!"
No one knew better than himself how terrifying the Pope of Martial Soul City really was!
Xue Xing wanted to say more, but he swallowed his words...
Immediately, he looked to the soldiers of the Tiandou Empire around him and commanded, "All men, to the imperial palace!!"
And so, the group began their grand departure...
After watching them leave, Dugu Yan asked cautiously, "Grandfather, by doing this, won't you offend Prince Xue Xing?"
She was still somewhat concerned that this might displease Prince Xue Xing...
He chuckled lightly, "Rest assured, Prince Xue Xing is a smart man!"
If such a minor matter were to affect their relationship, he would not have protected him with all his efforts for so long!!
After pausing for a moment, he joked, "Besides, if we return to the imperial palace right now, Yan Zi, you definitely wouldn't want to, right?"
Dugu Yan straightened her chest, "Of course, I didn't come to Martial Soul City to attend the auction, but to settle scores with that Xu Sheng!"
She certainly hadn't forgotten her original purpose!!
Just then, Yueguan came out with his arms folded and walking slowly, especially with that enchanting posture, which anyone would find eye-searing...
"Oh, I seem to have heard something serious, settling scores with Xu Sheng??"
Inwardly, he was resentful, "Sure enough, it's that Xu Sheng again. I knew there was a reason why Du Gu Bo suddenly wanted to enter Martial Soul City, and it turns out to be because of his granddaughter!"
Du Gu Bo glanced at him, "Chrysanthemum Guan, do you really like eavesdropping on other people's conversations that much?"
He had thought that after the previous incident, the other party would return to Pope Hall...
But unexpectedly, he was still hiding behind, surveilling him!!
Yueguan waved his hand with a look of helplessness, "I had no choice, I couldn't be sure whether you had other reasons for coming to Martial Soul City, but now, it's confirmed!"
Now that he knew the other party's purpose involved Xu Sheng, there was no need to worry about them making a move against Martial Soul City!
It was a blessing in disguise!
Too lazy to explain, Du Gu Bo snorted, "Hmph, since you've heard it all, I won't make excuses. I did indeed come to Martial Soul City for my granddaughter!"
"It seems she wants to have a chat with that Xu Sheng from your Pope Hall!!"
Yueguan narrowed his eyes, staring intensely at Dugu Yan, "Can you tell me where you... wait, I think I know."
The old poison's granddaughter, isn't she the student from Heaven Dou Royal Academy?
Could it be that she wants to avenge that guy who was injured by Xu Sheng??
Hmm... The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed!
Just in time, Du Gu Bo interrupted, "Chrysanthemum Guan, stop beating around the bush and give it to me straight. Will you let us into Pope Hall or not!"
"If not, we'll leave Martial Soul City right away!!"
The corners of Yueguan's mouth curved up slightly, "Originally I was not inclined to let you into Pope Hall, but who could have expected the Pope to be soft-hearted..."
Du Gu Bo's eyes narrowed as he pressed, "Do you mean you agree to let us into Pope Hall??"
This was beyond his expectations!
Yueguan nodded affirmatively, "That's right, the Pope has asked me to invite you into Pope Hall!"
Dugu Yan couldn't help but show an elated expression...
While Du Gu Bo fell into deep thought...
That Bi Bidong, personally inviting them into Pope Hall, could there be some trickery involved??
He must consider it carefully...
Seeing him somewhat hesitant, Yueguan taunted, "What's the matter? Old Poison, are you scared?"
"If you lack the guts, why bother bringing your granddaughter here? Wouldn't that tarnish the reputation of Poison Douluo!"
Snapping back to reality, Du Gu Bo retorted, "Who's scared? I'm just considering whether your Pope Hall has any good hospitality to offer, otherwise, it might tarnish the dignity of Martial Soul City!"
Yueguan pursed his lips, "Old Poison, that's not for you to worry about. The resources of Spirit Hall are beyond your imagination!!!"
