Faced with the contents of Ye Lingling's letter, Qian Renxue felt it was uninteresting and, disappointed,
She sealed the letter again.
She instructed, "Snake Lance, have someone send this letter back to Spirit City as soon as possible."
"Understood," Snake Lance Douluo replied respectfully.
"Oh, right," Qian Renxue suddenly remembered, "When the Porcupine and Dugu Bo return, ask them to come and see me."
"Yes," Snake Lance retreated quietly.
Swish!
Qian Renxue swung her sword, and her sharp phoenix-like eyes glanced toward the corner.
The eldest prince, Xue Qinghe, was standing there with his head lowered, waiting obediently.
Qian Renxue said indifferently, "Dugu Bo will become a retainer of the crown prince. But before that happens, you should visit the Dugu family a few more times to avoid suspicion."
"I follow master's orders!" Xue Qinghe, who was standing in the corner, immediately knelt down and lowered his head in submission.
Qian Renxue, holding her sword, smiled with anticipation.
With Dugu Bo on her side, she now had visible representative in this Heaven Dou City.
There were so many more things she could do.
Ever since she learned that Qian Renjue might possess a god inheritance, Qian Renxue had become much more cautious and calmer.
In her previous life, two gods, Bibi Dong and her couldnt beat Sea God Tang San
But what about three gods, plus the twin-god martial soul fusion technique?
Even the original Asura God wouldn't be able to openly intervene in the mortal realm, right?
And even if he could, how much power could he send down?
As for the Sea God, whose inheritance had been severed, Qian Renxue didn't consider him a real threat.
This time, her position as a god would be complete!
She was determined to rewrite the ending.
...
As the day passed, Bibi Dong, just like Qian Renxue, eagerly opened the letter, only to find it completely boring.
Ye Lingling's method of crossing out words left them with no opportunity to even "guess the hidden meanings."
"Your Majesty, the Holy Son is here," Chrysanthemum Douluo, stationed at the door, announced immediately.
"Jue is here?!" Bibi Dong's eyes widened.
Clatter!
She hastily dropped her scepter and scrambled to seal the letter back up.
Outside the hall, Qian Renjue's gentle voice called out, "Sister Chrysanthemum, why are you standing by the door?"
"Your Highness, I was feeling a bit hot inside," Chrysanthemum Douluo, looking guilty, lowered his head as he slowly backed into the Pope's Hall.
"Please, come in, Your Highness."
"..."
Qian Renjue was a bit confused, while Ling Yuan Douluo, following behind him, had a peculiar look on her face.
It seemed she, like Chrysanthemum Douluo, had done something similar before... Was the Pope secretly peeking again?!
Even though she knew the truth, Ling Yuan dared not say much, feeling a bit guilty herself since she had been an accomplice before.
Upon entering the huge hall, Qian Renjue nodded slightly in response to Ghost Douluo's greeting.
He noticed the empty throne and the scepter lying on the ground.
With a frown, he called out softly, "Mom?"
"I'm here! Mom's here!" Bibi Dong's slightly anxious voice responded as her delicate hand emerged from under the table, waving.
"Mom, what are you doing under the table?"
Qian Renjue glanced at Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo, but neither of them answered.
Puzzled, he quickly walked up the steps toward Bibi Dong.
"Oh? Jue, mom wasn't doing anything," Bibi Dong hastily crawled out from under the table, her crown was crooked and her hair slightly disheveled.
Her delicate face blushed slightly as she hurriedly sat on her throne, breathing a sigh of relief.
"Mom was just looking for something; nothing important."
Bibi Dong adjusted her crown and, forcing a smile, tried to explain to her son, who had now come closer.
"Do you need help, Mom?"
Qian Renjue raised an eyebrow and bent down to pick up the scepter from the floor.
"No, no, I already found it."
Bibi Dong chuckled lightly, quickly pulling out the letter she had hidden in her sleeve and smoothing out the creases.
"Well, okay if you found it."
As Qian Renjue looked up, Bibi Dong subtly hid the letter away, while Ling Yuan and the other elders stood silently below, with their heads lowered.
"Why did you suddenly come, Jue?"
Bibi Dong, trying to steady her breath, took the scepter from him and attempted to regain her composure.
"Sister Ling and I have refined many new pills, some of which can be distributed to the students at Spirit Academy."
Qian Renjue raised his hand, adjusting Bibi Dong's crown and smoothing out her hair. His fingers brushed gently across her blushing skin, making Bibi Dong feel even more ashamed.
She tilted her head slightly, her face displaying an unusual softness and doting.
"Are you asking Mom to arrange the distribution of those pills?"
"That's one part of it."
Qian Renjue nodded and sat down beside Bibi Dong, taking out a small booklet he had prepared.
"I'd like you to find some trustworthy fire-attribute soul masters and have Sister Ling train them. They can continuously refine these cheap pills, which will benefit soul masters below the Soul Elder rank."
"Train them in alchemy?"
Bibi Dong was momentarily stunned.
By talking about the serious matters, she had already adjust herself to the Pope persona
Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Qian Renjue.
Bibi Dong knew exactly how significant this matter would be for Spirit Hall.
For soul masters, the slightest delay in training could snowball into a permanent disadvantage, and vice versa.
If the lower-ranking soul masters of Spirit Hall could gain an early advantage, it would create a wider gap between Spirit Hall and the other factions.
Unable to hold back her praise, Bibi Dong said, "As expected of my Holy Son, this is an excellent idea, Jue."
"This is just my duty as the Holy Son."
Qian Renjue smiled.
He had been in this position for over three years without making any significant contributions.
Even with Bibi Dong's bias, rumors were bound to spread.
"Good. I'll make the necessary arrangements."
Bibi Dong nodded slightly and pinched Qian Renjue's cheek affectionately. "However, when training them, it's best if Ling Yuan assists you as your deputy. Understand?"
"Have Sister Ling as my deputy?"
Qian Renjue was momentarily confused, but he quickly realized Bibi Dong was trying to "push" him.
He agreed immediately.
"Of course, Mom. I understand."
Satisfied, Bibi Dong turned to the elders below and instructed, "Ling Yuan, if anyone disrespects the Holy Son, make sure to teach them the rules properly!"
"Rest assured, Your Majesty, I will handle it."
Ling Yuan and the others had heard the entire conversation between the mother and son clearly.
"Thank you, Mom."
Qian Renjue smiled gently.
Hearing his gratitude, Bibi Dong felt another wave of guilt.
She pulled out Ye Lingling's letter and awkwardly said, "By the way, Jue, you arrived just in time."
"Your little girlfriend's letter just arrived at Spirit City."
"Mom, what little girlfriend?!"
Qian Renjue rolled his eyes and snatched the letter from her hand.
He paused for a moment and asked in confusion, "Since when has Spirit Hall been this efficient?"
"It was your sister who sent it back."
Bibi Dong answered softly, her heart skipping a beat.
Xiao Xue... Did she also peek the letters?
