Black World, Shrek Academy.
"Is this the Supreme Pontiff of the previous generation of Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji?"
Flender widened his eyes, as if he were realizing for the first time what kind of person the Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall was.
"Do you think everyone in Spirit Hall is a good person?"
"The good reputation Spirit Hall has today was entirely built up by helping people with their Spirit Awakening and distributing gold coins to low-Rank Spirit Masters."
"Through such methods, they leave a good impression on young Spirit Masters who are inexperienced in the World, and then they recruit them later."
"I suspect those Elders in the Elder Hall were all recruited using this hypocritical charade."
Yu Xiaogang sneered as he watched the heavenly curtain, his heart full of disdain for Spirit Hall's methods.
"Exactly, there are no good people in Spirit Hall. How could a teacher like Qian Xunji possibly teach good students!"
Xiao Wu nodded in strong agreement from the side.
Zhao Wuji chimed in from the side as well.
Even Ning Rongrong, who was always bickering with Yu Xiaogang, did not object.
After all, her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had always maintained a relationship with Spirit Hall that was harmonious on the surface but discordant underneath.
On the other side, Heaven Dou Empire, Crown Prince's residence.
"So, Father was actually this kind of person..."
Looking at the evaluation of her father by the Elders of the parallel world on the heavenly curtain, Qian Renxue leaned back in her chair silently.
Qian Renxue did not know much about her father.
Neither her grandfather nor the Elders of the Elder Hall had told her much about her father's story.
Now, through the heavenly curtain, Qian Renxue was gradually piecing together the image of her father.
And she ended up with an image that was hard to comment on.
At least at this moment, Qian Renxue understood why her grandfather and the others were unwilling to mention her father.
They couldn't exactly tell her, when she was still young, about her ambitious father who spent all day plotting to conquer Douluo Continent, could they?
But soon, Qian Renxue had another question.
"Uncle She, you said the Elders of the parallel world were unwilling to support my father, so why didn't the Elders of our World stop me from coming to Heaven Dou Empire as an undercover agent?"
Qian Renxue frowned and looked at Snake Lance Douluo beside her.
This was something she couldn't understand.
Although she was not close to Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue could sense her assertiveness.
Now that she had seen her father from the parallel world shown on the heavenly curtain, Qian Renxue understood instantly that Bibi Dong's assertiveness stemmed from Qian Xunji.
In other words, if Spirit Hall were to truly dominate Douluo Continent in the future under Bibi Dong's leadership, then perhaps she would do the same things as Qian Xunji.
Perhaps even more ruthlessly.
Then why didn't the Elders stop Bibi Dong, but instead wanted to stop her father?
Hearing Qian Renxue's doubt, Snake Lance Douluo smiled.
"Young Lord, have you overlooked the biggest variable?"
"What variable?"
"You yourself!"
Snake Lance Douluo looked at Qian Renxue; the existence of this Young Lord of Spirit Hall was the reason the Elders had not opposed it.
"Young Lord, you should be very clear that although the current Supreme Pontiff of our Spirit Hall is that person, sooner or later, the position of Supreme Pontiff will return to your hands."
"You are the future of our Spirit Hall."
"To put it bluntly, no matter how much that person does, it is just toiling for your benefit."
"The Elders probably saw this point, which is why they tacitly approved of all that person's actions."
"So Young Lord, do you think that after you become the Supreme Pontiff, you would do something like annihilating the Families of us people?"
Hearing Snake Lance Douluo's words, Qian Renxue shook her head without even thinking:
"How could I possibly do such a thing?"
Having received the expected answer, Snake Lance Douluo's smile grew wider.
"That is why the Elders did not fiercely oppose it when they saw things gradually heading in this direction."
"They do not trust the former Supreme Pontiff, nor do they trust the current Supreme Pontiff, but they do trust the next Supreme Pontiff."
"Your existence is the reason for the completely opposite attitude of the Elders."
Speaking of this, Snake Lance Douluo inwardly marveled that Qian Renxue was indeed worthy of being someone personally raised by the High Priest.
Thinking about how, over these years, his Young Lord had taken the Incarnation of Xue Qinghe, while perfectly maintaining the disguise, she was also able to make Xue Qinghe's reputation for virtue spread far and wide.
One must know, this was not just for a few days, but a disguise lasting over a dozen years.
Throughout these dozen years, Xue Qinghe had always maintained this virtuous appearance, and no one had ever called him hypocritical.
A simple disguise could not achieve this level; only because his Young Lord's own nature was virtuous could she achieve such perfection without any flaws.
Therefore, this was the reason why everyone in Spirit Hall today had never gone against Bibi Dong.
As for whether all of this was Bibi Dong's will?
Snake Lance Douluo just smiled and said nothing.
Because of the matter with Qian Xunji, Qian Daoliu felt guilty towards Bibi Dong, so he had not stopped her.
But Gold Crocodile Douluo and the other Elders did not have this guilt.
If they really wanted to stand up and stop her, there was no telling how many Spirit Hall members would listen to them.
One must know, Bibi Dong had only ascended the Supreme Pontiff throne in the last ten years or so, and a powerhouse capable of having a say in Spirit Hall needed at least a few decades to grow.
From this, it can be seen that the powerful figures currently holding authority in Spirit Hall were basically all Seniors to Bibi Dong.
Would these Seniors take orders from Bibi Dong?
Perhaps some people would lean towards Bibi Dong in order to climb higher or for better resources, but such people would definitely not be many.
After all, Bibi Dong did not have that much power to give to these people.
Resources were pitifully scarce, which could be seen from the fact that even her capable subordinates, the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos who stood by her side, had not received Spirit Bone rewards.
As for Bibi Dong using her own strength to make those who were disobedient listen, or even resorting to mass slaughter.
If anything like that were to happen, Bibi Dong would not be able to sit on this Supreme Pontiff throne any longer.
The Elders of the Elder Hall were not just for show; if Bibi Dong dared to resort to mass slaughter, they would stand up and stop her.
Even if Qian Daoliu felt guilty towards Bibi Dong, he would not allow Bibi Dong to ruin Spirit Hall's legacy like this.
After all, Qian Daoliu was only the High Priest of this generation; he still had to hand over Spirit Hall intact to the next heir of the Qian Family.
For Qian Daoliu, maintaining the dignity of his God Ancestor and letting the light of the Angel God always shine upon Douluo Continent was more important than anything else.
In the face of this matter, even if it was their Qian Family who had wronged Bibi Dong first, Qian Daoliu would not make the slightest concession.
Therefore, in reality, the fact that Bibi Dong could command everything in Spirit Hall today was only possible because of the Elder Hall's tacit approval.
Snake Lance Douluo's words made Qian Renxue ponder for a moment; she had been impersonating Xue Qinghe for over a dozen years now, so it was not difficult for her to figure these things out.
She just hadn't expected that the seemingly absolute authority Bibi Dong wielded as Supreme Pontiff in Spirit Hall actually stemmed from her.
From her, the next heir of Spirit Hall.
Qian Renxue herself didn't even realize she was this important.
