Chapter 256: Bibi Dong: Soul Hunting Operation Delayed!
"Ah!"
The seductive woman let out a cry.
They felt the battle outside the City of Slaughter.
The battle's momentum was earth-shattering.
The King of Slaughter seemed in a good mood; the woman and Xiong Ba thought the matter was resolved!
But he still arranged Douhun matches for Huliena.
"Great King, Bibi Dong and Tang Hao are in a fierce battle. Didn't they defeat Bibi Dong?
If we open the Path of Hell, our losses will be great!" the woman cautiously asked.
Xiong Ba looked curiously at the King of Slaughter.
He was indeed in good spirits. He sat carelessly and explained: "Bibi Dong is severely injured, but the Martial Soul Hall's strength remains intact. They are not to be offended.
Besides, Huliena's talent is far below Bibi Dong's—what use is gaining the Killing God Domain?"
Seeing the King's decision, the woman quickly went to arrange things.
The King of Slaughter turned to Xiong Ba: "Go spread the news that the Martial Soul Hall's leader Bibi Dong and Tang Hao fought a fierce battle, and Bibi Dong was critically injured.
Also, mention Haotian Sect lost a titled Douluo!
Include the catchy phrase about generations of Haotian Hammer leaders!
You know what to do!"
Xiong Ba was shocked.
Someone died!
And a titled Douluo, no less.
The Poison Demon King was ruthless, dealing severe casualties to the continent's two largest factions.
The Poison Demon King had just arrived, and a great war broke out outside—it couldn't be anyone else's doing.
"Yes, Great King!"
Xiong Ba respectfully agreed and left the room.
The King of Slaughter rocked his chair proudly.
He admired himself immensely for devising such a ruthless strategy.
Sigh, I'm no longer naive.
He shook his head helplessly, thinking he never would have thought of such a move before.
If Dugu Feng were here, he would surely praise the rapid learning.
The King of Slaughter also thought of Dugu Feng.
"Asura power—you cultivate Asura power, such talent.
Tang Chen hadn't cultivated so fast at your age.
Looks like it's up to you to deal with the Asura Demon Sword!"
The King of Slaughter smiled deeply.
Seeing Dugu Feng refining Asura power through the blood pool, he already understood.
His greatest worry was Tang Chen's awakening. He had dreamed of destroying Tang Chen's divine mind.
Alas, the Asura Demon Sword protected Tang Chen.
The Demon Sword was the key divine artifact of the Asura God's legacy.
Though Dugu Feng had not started divine trials, he had comprehended Asura power through the Killing God Domain.
Could he control the Asura Demon Sword in the future?
The King of Slaughter now saw hope to utterly destroy Tang Chen.
He only hoped Dugu Feng would cultivate faster.
Martial Soul City.
Papal Hall.
Bibi Dong wore a dazzling golden gown, sitting solemnly in the papal chair.
On her head was a nine-curve purple-gold crown with nine red, blue, and gold gems on both sides, shining intermittently.
She held a two-meter-long scepter firmly planted on the ground.
Superficially, she showed no signs of injury.
In the large hall below, several titled Douluos stood idle, led by Douluo Ju and Douluo Gui, all standing at ease.
"She Long, explain her plan!" Bibi Dong asked calmly.
Behind Douluo Ju stood a spear-like stern elder, one of Qian Renxue's bodyguards—the Spear Douluo.
The Spear Douluo looked troubled and glanced around before saying in a low voice, "Miss refuses to expand the scope of the Soul Hunting operation. The forces in Tiandou are all under her control.
She is confident of a peaceful ascension within years, after which she will command these forces!
As for Haotian Sect, the miss has contacted Tang Xiao and can cooperate with Your Majesty to carry out the Soul Hunting operation!"
Before he finished,
Douluo Gui at the right front turned fiercely, scolding, "What about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Dugu family? Can you control them? These two factions have allied, their strength rivaling Haotian Sect!"
She Long grimaced, "Miss has coaxed Dugu Feng, and the Dugu family is inclining to her.
Her strength is rapidly advancing, and once she ascends to the throne, she will be a brilliant, eternal emperor. Why wouldn't they submit?"
After he said this, Douluo Ju also turned around.
"How can we wait so long? The longer the time, the more variables.
You should coordinate with our people inside Tiandou City and strike simultaneously at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Dugu family, Feng Sword Sect, and Haotian Sect, to decisively determine the outcome!"
She Long was bitter inside.
He had already traveled between Tiandou City and Martial Soul City many times.
He knew Bibi Dong's plan differed from the miss's.
Bibi Dong planned to launch the Soul Hunting operation within two years, with targets under discussion.
Removing these forces would clear all obstacles for Bibi Dong.
Then she could wield complete power over Martial Soul Hall.
Qian Renxue naturally wanted to delay for years to grow to titled Douluo.
Her cultivation also accelerated later because five top-tier soul bones awaited absorption.
Each soul bone would boost her soul power.
Once titled Douluo, she would be extraordinary.
Then, confident, she could control Tiandou Empire—including the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Dugu family, and Feng Sword Sect.
On this foundation, she could contend with Bibi Dong.
Sadly, Bibi Dong did not intend to give her that time.
What Douluo Ju and Douluo Gui meant was clear—they wanted to wipe out Tiandou soul master forces with this Soul Hunting.
Even if Qian Renxue ascended the throne, she would control little power and could not rival Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong on the papal chair listened quietly to the discussion.
After a while, she spoke, "Since she is confident, I shall give her a chance.
The Soul Hunting operation shall be postponed; we will choose the time carefully."
She Long could hardly believe his ears.
He had prepared for a scolding from the pope, then to inform Qian Renxue.
He didn't expect Bibi Dong to change her mind.
"Thank you, Your Holiness!"
She Long bowed deeply to Bibi Dong.
"Your Holiness."
"Holiness."
Douluo Ju and Douluo Gui were shocked—how could the settled plan suddenly change?
Bibi Dong's face showed no change.
"The matter is settled; no more discussion.
Yueguan, Guimei stay; others withdraw."
"Yes, Your Holiness!"
Though surprised, the many titled Douluos below suppressed their doubts out of respect for Bibi Dong's majesty and withdrew.
They wondered what had happened to change the pope's mind.
