126: Bibi Dong is a traitor who eats her own flesh and blood! (Two parts combined)

Eyes couldn't help but turn toward Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong's self-revelation directly pointed out two key issues.

Spirit Hall had been accumulating strength for a long time; what did they intend to do?

It certainly couldn't be peaceful coexistence.

Thus, even if the Insurgent Army didn't rebel against the Heaven Dou Empire's rule, it wouldn't be long before Spirit Hall rose up!

Second, Bibi Dong was saying now that she wanted to hand this power over to the Insurgent Army?

For Yu Xiaogang, this woman was actually willing to let Spirit Hall's years of effort benefit someone else?

No normal person would do such a thing, right?

In any case, City Lord Xiao could not understand it.

Yu Xiaogang's eyes widened. He looked at Bibi Dong in pleasant surprise, stepped forward, grabbed her shoulders, and asked, overjoyed:

"Donger! Are you willing to give this power to us?"

As soon as the words left Bibi Dong's mouth, she realized something was wrong.

But seeing Yu Xiaogang's excited expression and hearing that call of "Donger"...

...instantly caused Bibi Dong's rationality to vanish into thin air!

To hell with the big picture!

She only cared that Yu Xiaogang was happy!

Bibi Dong's face flushed slightly as she hummed in affirmation, her voice stiff, "Of course..."

"That's wonderful! Donger! You're so good to me!"

Yu Xiaogang couldn't resist giving Bibi Dong a tight hug.

Their physical contact instantly left Bibi Dong in a daze.

Yu Xiaogang was ecstatic. He wasn't stupid, just arrogant; he knew City Lord Xiao felt repulsed by him.

But his biggest weakness was a lack of military power!

Now that Bibi Dong was willing to support him, wouldn't he have a much greater say within the Insurgent Army?

No! He might even be able to replace them?!

City Lord Xiao and the others' jaws nearly hit the floor as they watched this scene in disbelief.

Donger... No, are you really the Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall?

How did you ever get to that position?

This... isn't this just a pure love brain?

City Lord Xiao and Dragon Duke Meng Shu exchanged a glance, both unable to comprehend it.

But soon, City Lord Xiao's mind began to race.

The Insurgent Army already held the moral high ground. Once they gained the support of Spirit Hall's military equipment and forces, it would likely be as unstoppable as a prairie fire.

Therefore, the most critical issue was how to maintain the purity of the Insurgent Army.

Instead of ending up with a new Empire.

After overthrowing the two corrupt Empires of Heaven Dou and Star Luo, were they really going to end up with an even more powerful Insurgent Emperor?

"In that case, I think we can launch an attack directly on Heaven Dou City after accepting this power! Donger, how many troops do we have?" Yu Xiaogang grabbed Bibi Dong's wrist and approached the map, already treating those military assets as his own.

"Three hundred thousand elites..." Bibi Dong said.

"!!!" Everyone couldn't help but gasp.

Three hundred thousand elites... One must realize that elites and ordinary soldiers were Worlds apart!

Being elite meant not only superior individual combat skills but also iron armor, warhorses, and better weaponry. In large-scale army operations, one elite could hold his own against seven or eight ordinary soldiers!

Spirit Hall had been quietly doing big things!

And now it was all being handed over to the Insurgent Army... "So! Marshal Xiao, do you still wish to refuse my proposal?" Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but gloat.

Bibi Dong immediately frowned and looked coldly at City Lord Xiao.

To think he dared to refuse her beloved Yu Xiaogang—simply outrageous!

City Lord Xiao instantly felt a mortal threat.

"Ang...!!!"

Luo San Pao immediately stood up, shielding City Lord Xiao.

A holy Aura erupted, clashing with Bibi Dong's Aura.

Under the stress, Luo San Pao unleashed Dragon Qi, causing its strength to reach the level of a Titled Douluo.

Furthermore, because it possessed a holy attribute, it had a restraining effect on Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes, a sense of loathing rising in her heart.

"Don't be nervous. Before, we had to lie low because we lacked power. Now that we have it, we will naturally follow the Great Master's wishes. However, we must not lose the purity of the Insurgent Army."

"My personal suggestion is that the Great Master leads the external expansion, while I take charge of military discipline. What do you think, Great Master?"

City Lord Xiao bowed proactively, breaking the tense atmosphere.

He patted Luo San Pao, signaling it to restrain its Aura.

Luo San Pao snorted and stared coldly at Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong looked at Yu Xiaogang—this great hero in her eyes—and asked, "Xiaogang, what do you think?"

Yu Xiaogang nodded, his face showing excitement.

In other words, he was going to become the actual Grand Marshal?

And City Lord Xiao would just be a minor Military Discipline Officer?

"Good! City Lord Xiao's previous efforts were quite good. Now that you're handling military discipline, I will certainly support you fully!" Yu Xiaogang said with a nod.

"That's good then..." City Lord Xiao gave a forced smile.

Seeing this, the other high-ranking officials understood the situation.

The winds of change were blowing for the Insurgent Army.

However, the grip on military discipline would likely become even firmer!

"Donger, just watch. I will overthrow the two great Empires and break the rule of those evil nobles! I will let everyone know that this is my era!"

Yu Xiaogang spoke with soaring ambition.

"..." The others were dying of embarrassment.

What the hell does this have to do with you, Yu Xiaogang?

You're basically just a trophy Puppet!

Bibi Dong's eyes were shining as she nodded vigorously. Now that she could fight alongside Yu Xiaogang, she had forgotten everything else.

"I do!"

"..."

Everyone complained wildly in their hearts: What do you mean "I do"?

Have you already turned this place into your wedding venue?

What a pair of lunatics!!!

...A few days later, Spirit Hall's military forces erupted from various kingdoms and duchies. It turned out Spirit Hall had long since secretly controlled these small nations; now that they were exposed, they were taken over directly.

The territory of the Insurgent Army instantly expanded several times over!

City Lord Xiao and the others truly relinquished their power completely, turning instead to roles as Military Discipline Officers and Teachers, beginning to focus on cultivating new ideas and purifying their ranks.

Once they settled down, because the army was almost entirely composed of commoners, they were indeed willing to accept the Insurgent Army's ideology.

Thus, the three hundred thousand elites soon began to spread the Insurgent Army's ideology, undergoing a continuous transformation.

Meanwhile, Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong didn't care about any of this.

They were now just constantly capturing cities and seizing territory. Wherever they went, they would ride tall horses and parade through the city together, enjoying the thrill of being revered by thousands... Naturally, the unstoppable momentum of the Insurgent Army became known to all major powers.

Heaven Dou City, Crown Prince's Mansion.

"Xue Qinghe" was currently overwhelmed. She hadn't fully seized power yet—or rather, she hadn't established a new court administration. Many nobles were still waiting and watching, or they refused to accept her distribution of interests.

After all, if a new emperor wants to take the throne, there must be rewards for the great nobles, right?

Of course, this certainly included Prince Xue Xing and others secretly dragging their feet.

At the same time, the real Emperor Xue Ye was not yet dead and was sending imperial decrees from some unknown location to hold her accountable.

That wasn't all; the reports of the Insurgent Army's sweeping victories had also caused her to lose a lot of hair these past few days!

Especially after learning about the Insurgent Army's reinforced combat strength... "What?! Uncle Snake Lance, are you saying the three hundred thousand elites that appeared out of nowhere for the Insurgent Army are our Spirit Hall's military forces? And now those kingdoms and duchies have also been brought under the Insurgent Army's banner?!"

"Xue Qinghe's" face turned pale, and her body trembled.

At the Insurgent Army's current rate of development, she feared she would be the ruler of a fallen nation by the time she ascended the throne!

Snake Lance Douluo nodded slightly, his expression also very troubled. He hesitated, "No one knows why the Supreme Pontiff would do this. It's completely sacrificing Spirit Hall's interests to feed the Insurgent Army..."

"..."

"Xue Qinghe" was the Young Lord of the Angel Clan and was actually Bibi Dong's daughter.

Hearing that Bibi Dong had done something so absurd, she held her forehead, nearly fainting from anger!

"I'm going to complain to Grandfather! She... she's simply acting recklessly!"

"Also, I must ascend the throne first! Otherwise, once Emperor Xue Ye regains control of the court, there will be no more opportunities... I want, I want to control all the World's military forces!"

"Draft it! Prince Xue Xing is secretly usurping the state and assuming the late emperor's title..."

"Xue Qinghe" ground her teeth; she was about to blow her top!

She was flipping the table!

...Spirit City, Hall of Worship.

Qian Daoliu received "Xue Qinghe's" letter. After reading the contents, his handsome face flushed red. He almost lost his composure beneath the Angel God's statue and hurried out of the hall.

"Bastard!!!"

A roar shook the heavens and the earth.

Qian Daoliu drew his sword and slashed at the sky, sending out several streaks of sword light.

The white clouds in the sky were torn apart, and golden light shone brilliantly from the rifts.

Terrifying Soul Power fluctuations spread in all directions. For a moment, the sky seemed to darken significantly.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...!

Several figures suddenly appeared nearby.

The Worshipers saw Qian Daoliu in such a state and looked at each other, somewhat bewildered.

Everyone knew that Qian Daoliu had been cultivating his character over the years. Even when Bibi Dong wiped out his clan, he hadn't been this angry, simply saying to let her be.

Why was he so irritable today?

"Boss, what happened?"

Gold Crocodile Douluo asked in confusion.

He was actually the oldest, with more experience than even Qian Daoliu, having lived through four generations of Supreme Pontiffs.

Qian Daoliu threw the letter to Gold Crocodile Douluo, gritting his teeth.

"Only women and small-minded men are difficult to deal with!!!"

Gold Crocodile Douluo took it, and the other Worshipers immediately crowded around to read it together.

To make Qian Daoliu this angry, one could imagine how shocking the content must be!

A moment later, they finished reading, their expressions turning strange.

Bibi Dong had truly manifested the act of being a traitor to the utmost!

Back then, for Yu Xiaogang's sake, she had opened all of Spirit Hall's resources and Secret Manuals to him, even handing over the mysteries of the Angel Spirit.

Not to mention the secrets of Sea God Island.

One must know that Spirit Hall's secrets regarding Sea God Island were obtained at the cost of several Elders and countless elites.

Yet, Yu Xiaogang was able to see them for free!

Decades later, Bibi Dong became the Supreme Pontiff, and the result was even more ridiculous!

Spirit Hall's decades of preparations were all exposed prematurely by her and handed over to the Insurgent Army... though it was called the Insurgent Army, it was essentially giving command to Yu Xiaogang!

And she didn't ask for any compensation?!

This was completely sacrificing Spirit Hall's interests for the benefit of others!

"We should remove her! She can't be allowed to be the Supreme Pontiff anymore! Otherwise, Spirit Hall will be squandered by her sooner or later! How can such a fatuous person exist in this World?"

Gold Crocodile Douluo said irritably.

What he didn't know was that what Bibi Dong was doing now was at least much better than in the original story.

In the original timeline, Bibi Dong led Spirit Hall into war not for Spirit Hall's hegemony, but to destroy this World that wouldn't let her be with Yu Xiaogang!

She was taking Spirit Hall down with her!

"And that Insurgent Army! How dare they accept this power? Let's deal with them all at once!"

"Bring Bibi Dong back and imprison her in the Hall of Worship! She must not be allowed out again!"

"But the Insurgent Army has the shadow of the Azure Dragon Temple behind it after all; we must consider the influence of the High Priest..."

"..."

The Worshipers discussed animatedly.

Qian Daoliu pinched his brow. What truly annoyed him wasn't Bibi Dong's absurdity, but that she had so utterly betrayed Qian Renxue's "sacrifice."

By doing this, Bibi Dong had directly turned all of Qian Renxue's efforts over the years into wasted labor!

"Let's go to the Azure Dragon Temple and consult the High Priest. Hopefully, this won't have any negative impact..."

Qian Daoliu made his decision... Qian Daoliu and the other Worshipers set out together for the Azure Dragon Temple. To show respect, they landed three miles away and proceeded on foot.

The atmosphere on the way was very oppressive, as these men were still fuming over Bibi Dong's actions.

They couldn't wait to set off immediately and escort Bibi Dong back.

Halfway there, the queue of Believers had already appeared.

They exchanged glances, faced with a dilemma... cutting in line?

If they queued up, they probably wouldn't even reach the front by nightfall.

This really stumped them... Suddenly.

Qian Daoliu looked up at the sky. Several Soul Power fluctuations appeared above. He said cleverly, "Those Auras might be coming to the Temple to cause trouble. Let's stop them! We'll capture them and let the High Priest decide their fate!"

"Good!" Gold Crocodile Douluo and the others immediately responded with smiles.

Several figures instantly soared into the air, pursuing those Auras ahead.

Boom...!!!

Soon, a thunderous sound erupted in the sky.

The Believers below were startled and looked up, but there were only white clouds, with no sign of an impending thunderstorm.

Yu Mengzhang looked up from the temple and saw both sides of the battle.

As it happened, he knew them all.

They were the respective pinnacles of Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts on the Douluo Continent.

They were currently locked in a fierce battle, evenly matched.

Yu Mengzhang said indifferently, "Stop, or leave."

His voice carried over.

Both sides in the air immediately stopped and looked at each other, both faces filled with astonishment.

Neither could quite believe the other had held their ground.

Qian Daoliu spoke first, "High Priest, we were concerned they came to show disrespect to the Azure Dragon Temple..."

Di Tian interrupted coldly, "Nonsense! We have matters to discuss with the High Priest!"

Neither side would yield an inch, both extremely heated.

"State your purposes," Yu Mengzhang said calmly.

Qian Daoliu then explained their concerns.

"As long as the foundation of the Insurgent Army remains untouched."

Qian Daoliu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, gave a salute, and led the other Worshipers away.

Di Tian watched them leave completely before saying:

"High Priest, the matter we wish to discuss is too significant. We must talk in private, lest there be eavesdroppers..."

"Speak plainly."
