Chapter 50 Insolence! I am the Pope!
"Your Holiness! What are you doing—" The cardinal was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, his face ashen.
"Go back and tell Golden Crocodile."
Bibi Dong (Nan Feng)'s voice was icy cold, echoing throughout the entire tent: "Now, this is the battlefield! I am the true commander-in-chief of the three armies! I am the sole Pope of the Spirit Hall!"
"How this battle is fought and when it ends are entirely up to me!"
"It's not his place to point fingers!"
"You—" Demon Bear Douluo took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Even if you are the Pope, you cannot disobey the Elders' decision! This is the rule of the Spirit Hall! If you insist on going your own way, what will happen when you return—"
"We'll have to wait until we get back to talk about that!" Bibi Dong (Nan Feng) sneered.
"This is now a battlefield!"
"On the battlefield, there are only military orders, not rules!"
boom-!!!
Before he could finish speaking...
An absolutely terrifying aura erupted from Bibi Dong's body without reservation!
The deathly white domain of the God of Slaughter swept across the entire area as if it were a tangible entity, instantly lowering the temperature inside the tent to freezing point.
hum!
A crimson, blood-red 100,000-year soul ring rose from beneath her feet, and the savage aura emanating from an ancient beast made the four titled Douluo elders gasp for breath.
"I am the Pope!!"
Bibi Dong (Nan Feng)'s gaze was like a knife, sweeping across the faces of the four people one by one. Her voice carried a chilling killing intent: "I will command this war!"
"Anyone who dares to suggest retreating at this time, anyone who dares to disobey orders—"
Bibi Dong (Nan Feng) clenched her fist in the air, and the phantom of the Death Spider King behind her let out a silent roar: "Do you think that just because Qian Daoliu can kill you, I can't?!"
"Disobeying orders on the battlefield? I can execute you right here and now!"
"Want to give it a try?!"
The four titled Douluo elders were all pale-faced and sweating profusely.
They looked at each other and saw the fear in each other's eyes.
crazy.
This woman has completely gone mad.
She not only dared to break the Second Elder's orders, but also dared to openly threaten to kill the elders!
but----
Do they dare to gamble?
dare not!
Bibi Dong used that strange move when facing several elders of the Haotian Sect. She broke the Haotian Battle Formation with one strike and also killed two peak Soul Douluo in an instant. If you really anger her, this woman is really willing to kill to establish her authority!
Moreover, this is the front line, the battlefield.
Disobeying orders on the battlefield is a capital offense.
If Bibi Dong really killed them and used the Pope's authority to suppress them, would Golden Crocodile Douluo really turn against the Pope for the sake of a few dead people?
Moreover, Bibi Dong's request was not excessive.
They're just being sent on a feint attack, to hold their own, not to be sent to their deaths.
Why would I risk my life against a level 97 lunatic who could go berserk at any moment over something so trivial?
not worth it!
"Your subordinate obeys!"
The most pragmatic of them all, Serpent Spear Douluo, was the first to kneel on one knee, his voice trembling, "I will obey the Pope's decree!"
With someone taking the lead, the psychological defenses of the remaining three instantly collapsed.
"Your subordinate obeys!"
"Your subordinate obeys!"
"Your subordinate—is willing to obey orders!"
Looking at the elders kneeling on the ground, Bibi Dong (Nan Feng) slowly suppressed her aura.
"That's right."
"Remember, on the battlefield, there can only be one voice."
"The Pope's voice! My voice!!"
"action!"
"Yes, sir!!!"
Wuhun City, Hall of Offerings.
"She—she tore it?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo looked at the cardinal kneeling before him, trembling as he reported the news, and his beard trembled with rage.
"Bibi Dong—how dare she?!"
"Has she gone mad?! Has she become so infatuated after winning a battle?!"
"Has she forgotten who put her on the papacy? Has she forgotten that the Elders' Hall has the power to depose the Pope? Has she forgotten who the true master of the Spirit Hall is?!"
"Tearing up the decree from the Hall of Worship and threatening to kill elders on the battlefield—this is rebellion! Absolutely outrageous!!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo couldn't understand it at all.
Although Bibi Dong was aloof in the past, she was also a smart person who knew how to endure in the shadow of the Hall of Worship.
But this time—it was like he was a completely different person, crazy, domineering, and unreasonable!
"What's wrong, Golden Crocodile?"
A calm voice rang out in the hall.
Qian Daoliu stepped forward, his brow furrowing slightly as he looked at the enraged Golden Crocodile. "What has caused such a lapse in composure?"
"A grand offering!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo quickly bowed, and then, with a face full of resentment, recounted in detail what had happened at the front lines, as well as the news that Bibi Dong had torn up the order and forcibly sent troops to the Haotian Sect.
Upon hearing the report, a look of astonishment flashed across Qian Daoliu's previously calm face.
"She didn't withdraw her troops?"
Qian Daoliu frowned deeply. "Now that the Haotian Sect has sealed off its mountain and Tang Hao has been expelled, the strategic objective should have been achieved. Continuing the attack would not only be unjustified but also only increase the burden on our forces. What exactly is she trying to achieve by doing this?"
"Not only did she not retreat, she even threatened to raze the Clear Sky Sect to the ground!" Golden Crocodile Douluo gritted his teeth, "She even sent Demon Bear and the other three to attack Clear Sky Peak!"
"Nonsense!!" Qian Daoliu's expression changed drastically.
"Does she even know what she's doing?! If she really destroys the Haotian Sect—who will bear the consequences?!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo was taken aback, somewhat puzzled: "Great Elder, although the Clear Sky Sect has sealed off its mountain, if we can really take this opportunity to wipe them out, it would be—"
"It must not be destroyed!"
Qian Daoliu suddenly turned around, his gaze fixed on the north, a deep sense of apprehension flashing in his eyes: "Jin E, you and I both know that the true foundation of the Haotian Sect has never been Tang Xiao, the Haotian Battle Formation, or the Great Sumeru Hammer."
"But it's—Tang Chen!"
Upon hearing this name, Golden Crocodile Douluo's pupils constricted sharply.
"Back when Tang Chen disappeared and I went to pursue the path to godhood, I had a battle with him on the summit of Haotian Peak."
Qian Daoliu's voice carried a hint of bitterness and reminiscence: "In that battle—I was slightly outmatched."
"It was at that time that I made a promise to him: no one from the Spirit Hall shall ever set foot on Haotian Peak until I defeat him."
Qian Daoliu took a deep breath, his tone becoming extremely solemn: "In this world, if anyone can truly reach the divine realm beyond the mortal world through their own power, Tang Chen—is definitely the most likely candidate."
"Although I am known as the invincible one in the sky, that's based on the glory of the angels. Tang Chen, on the other hand, is pure strength!"
"So many years have passed, and although there has been no news of him, no one can guarantee that he is dead."
"just in case"
A deep sense of apprehension flashed in Qian Daoliu's eyes: "What if he really returns as a god and finds that the Haotian Sect has been wiped out by us and Haotian Peak has been flattened by us?"
"Then do you think the Spirit Hall can still exist?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this.
god!
For people at their level, that word is both a temptation and an absolute fear.
If Tang Chen really returns as a god, it will be a catastrophe for the Spirit Hall!
"This is also the fundamental reason why I immediately ordered you to retreat after hearing that Bibi Dong had won a great victory."
Qian Daoliu said in a deep voice, "As long as Tang Chen's death is not confirmed, the Spirit Hall can never bring itself to kill the Clear Sky Sect."
Suppression is acceptable, but annihilation of the entire family—absolutely not!
"Great Master! I'll go right now!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo immediately volunteered, "I'll go to the front lines right now and capture that arrogant woman! And while I'm at it, I'll withdraw the army!"
"you go?"
Qian Daoliu glanced at the golden crocodile, but shook his head.
"You can't do it."
"I can't?" Golden Crocodile Douluo was taken aback, somewhat unconvinced. "Grand Elder, even if Bibi Dong has some strength now, I'm still level ninety-eight—"
"You've seen the battle report too."
Qian Daoliu interrupted him, "Bibi Dong single-handedly defeated the Haotian Battle Formation composed of Tang Xiao and seven elders, killing two on the spot and forcing one to his death."
"The crucial point is that she was completely unharmed afterwards."
"Golden Crocodile, if you were in her shoes, could you have done what she did in that situation?"
'
Golden Crocodile Douluo fell silent.
The Haotian Battle Formation is both offensive and defensive, and its coordination is incredibly sophisticated, making it impossible to defend against. Once trapped in it, even someone of his level would have their strength greatly suppressed and unable to unleash its full potential.
He was confident that he could suppress Tang Xiao and also escape unscathed from the Haotian Battle Formation.
But to say something like Bibi Dong, who could break through an enemy formation with a single strike and instantly kill two people—
He can't.
Unless he trades his life for injury and forces his way through.
But Bibi Dong wasn't injured, which was the part he couldn't understand the most!
"Bibi Dong's current strength is probably no less than yours, and may even have—potentially—entered my domain."
Qian Daoliu sighed, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
"Moreover, time waits for no one."
"Bibi Dong's order for a general offensive was issued yesterday, and we only received it today. The Spirit Hall's army is probably already at the Clear Sky Sect's gates."
"You're not fast enough."
"By the time you arrive, Bibi Dong will probably have already stormed Haotian Peak, and the Haotian Sect will be awash in blood."
At this point, Qian Daoliu's body shone brightly with golden light, and the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul suddenly possessed him, its sacred and powerful aura instantly breaking through the dome of the hall.
"Golden Crocodile, you will be stationed in Wuhun City."
"This matter—"
Qian Daoliu's figure flashed, transforming into a golden meteor that shot into the sky, heading straight north: "Only I can stop her if I go myself!"
