"Why did you come to Wuhun City ahead of time? Are you going to see that woman?" Liu Erlong hurriedly asked.
Grandmaster couldn't help but marvel at the power of a woman's intuition.
He quickly explained, "Erlong, don't misunderstand. I'm going to see Bibi Dong, but it's about the mistress."
Liu Erlong didn't speak, her gaze fixed on Grandmaster.
Grandmaster continued, "You all know about the feud between the Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect. Xiao San accidentally revealed the Clear Sky Hammer this time and displayed astonishing talent. Given the Spirit Hall's modus operandi, they've likely already set their sights on him."
Liu Erlong's jealousy vanished instantly, and she asked, "You mean the Spirit Hall will harm Xiao San?"
Grandmaster nodded, "Very likely. That's why I wanted to arrive in Spirit City early to see Bibi Dong and beg her to spare Xiao San."
Liu Erlong coldly said, "That woman is vicious and inhuman. She even expelled you from the Spirit Hall back then. What good will be begging her do?"
Grandmaster sighed, remained silent for a moment, and said, "The Spirit Hall is too powerful. If I don't do this, what other way can I protect Xiao San?"
Flander asked, "Has Tang Hao still not returned?"
Grandmaster shook his head, saying, "Not yet. It's been so long. I don't know where he went. If he were with me, I wouldn't have had to resort to this."
Liu Erlong said, "In that case, I'll go with you. Bibi Dong is too wicked; I don't trust you to go alone."
"No! Erlong, you can't go. I'm just a Great Soul Master, no threat to Bibi Dong. She won't do anything to me. If you go, she might hurt you, so it's better for you to stay and protect Xiao San," Grandmaster said.
Flander said, "Erlong, Xiao Gang is right. You should stay."
Liu Erlong gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, but you have to promise me you won't have anything to do with that woman."
Grandmaster gently stroked Liu Erlong's hair and said, "Don't worry, I have no feelings for that woman anymore. Now, I only have you in my heart."
Liu Erlong blushed and slapped Grandmaster's hand away, saying, "What are you doing? There are other people here."
Flander and Zhao Wuji were a little embarrassed and quickly turned away.
"Then when are you planning to leave?" Liu Erlong asked.
The Grandmaster said, "I'll leave quietly tonight. Xiao San can't know about this, lest he worry and it affect his cultivation."
Liu Erlong said, "Xiao San is so lucky to have you as his teacher. You always think of him, even disregarding your own safety."
The Grandmaster smiled, "Xiao San is no different from my own child. I've done everything I can for him. I only hope he can grow up safely and become strong, so he won't fear the Spirit Hall's persecution."
Liu Erlong said, "We all look forward to that day."
"Yes, let's go back," the Grandmaster said.
The four returned to the Shrek Academy's resting area.
An hour passed, and the group continued their journey, heading towards Spirit City. That
night, the group stopped in a large city. The royal family booked two hotels for the teachers and students of the various academies.
The Heavenly Dou royal family could afford this.
Late at night, the Grandmaster, Flander, Liu Erlong, and Zhao Wuji quietly left the hotel.
The master, leading a horse, said, "You don't need to see me off, go back now."
With that, he mounted the horse, spurred it on, and it galloped off towards the city gate.
"Xiao Gang, take care..." Liu Erlong murmured, watching the master's figure disappear
into the night. Only after the master's figure vanished into the darkness did Flander say, "Erlong, let's go back and rest. Don't worry, Xiao Gang never does anything he's not sure of; he'll be safe and sound."
Liu Erlong didn't speak, gazing silently into the darkness ahead for a long time.
The master spurred his horse, and soon they were out of the city, traveling without stopping.
It would take the main force about twenty days to reach Wuhun City. The master didn't know when Bibi Dong would act, so he had to get to Wuhun City as quickly as possible, finding Bibi Dong before she acted.
Although his chances of persuading Bibi Dong were slim, he had no other choice but to try.
...
Over the next few days, the Grandmaster rested only two or three hours a day, changing horses at each city he visited. Even so, he still managed to kill several horses and break several whips.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, the Grandmaster finally arrived at Spirit City.
He was utterly exhausted, with prominent dark circles under his eyes and bloodshot pupils; his mind was stretched to its limit.
"Now, I'm afraid I could fall asleep the moment I close my eyes," the Grandmaster said with a wry smile.
Despite his exhaustion, the Grandmaster dared not rest. Upon entering the city, he immediately headed towards the central Pope Mountain.
Decades later, returning to Spirit City filled the Grandmaster with a myriad of emotions.
Everything here was still so familiar, almost unchanged. Here, he had tasted the full spectrum of life's joys and sorrows.
This place shaped him; if he hadn't come here, learned so much valuable knowledge, and found his niche, his life would have been spent in a daze.
Knowledge gave him the opportunity to change his destiny; this place could be considered the turning point in his life.
The Grandmaster rode his horse swiftly through the city.
He raised his head, gazing at the distant mountain and the magnificent palace halfway up its slopes. A glimmer of light suddenly appeared in his weary eyes.
"Bibi Dong, I, Yu Xiaogang, have returned. Do you...remember me?"
...
Half an hour later, the Grandmaster finally arrived at the foot of Papal Mountain, only to be stopped by the paladin knights guarding its base.
"Halt! This is not a place for you. Leave immediately!"
The Grandmaster quickly took out a token and held it out to the knight.
Upon seeing the token, the knight's attitude immediately became respectful, and he hurriedly said, "Greetings, Elder."
The Grandmaster nodded slightly and said calmly, "I wish to see the Pope."
"Very well, please follow me." The knight immediately led the way up the mountain.
The Grandmaster carefully put away the token and followed the knight.
"I didn't expect this token to be so useful," the Grandmaster thought to himself.
This token was given to him by Bibi Dong when she was with him, because she was worried he would be bullied. She had obtained it from Qian Xunji.
Over the years, the Grandmaster had never been willing to throw it away, because he felt that the token might still be useful.
Sure enough, it came in handy today.
There are two types of elder tokens from the Spirit Hall: one for titled Douluo elders who are completely loyal to the Spirit Hall,
and the other for honorary elders, whose holders do not belong to the Spirit Hall and whose cultivation level may not necessarily reach the titled Douluo realm.
The Spirit Hall usually extends invitations to honorary elders to titled Douluo from other forces, or to figures of great importance in the soul master world.
For example, Ning Fengzhi is also an honorary elder of the Spirit Hall.
Grandmaster's token is also an honorary elder token.
Not long after, Grandmaster was brought to the council hall.
"Go and inform the Pope that Yu Xiaogang has arrived," Grandmaster said.
"Elder, please wait a moment. I will go and inform His Holiness the Pope," the temple knight said, and hurriedly left.
