In the Pope's Palace, Bibi Dong listened to the subordinate's report and frowned slightly: "Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Family?"

"Yes." The cardinal below said, "The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family has strengthened patrols and defenses. Our people dare not get too close, but we did see traces of the Saint in that area."

Bibi Dong rubbed her brows, looking a little tired: "Pay close attention, and report to me immediately once you find the location of the Saint. Remember, don't leak this matter."

The cardinal said yes respectfully and withdrew.

The door of the Pope's Palace closed, and Bibi Dong was the only one left in the palace.

Three months had passed, and the failure of the Soul Hunting Operation had caused the Spirit Hall to lose nearly half of its spirit master combat power. If it weren't for the fact that the two Titled Douluo masters from the three upper sects had been severely injured, and if they had not controlled enough spirit masters to still have a deterrent effect on the two empires, the enemy would probably have come to their doorstep by now. His silence and the dormancy of the black fog were more like the dust had settled, making Bibi Dong feel at a loss for the first time.

What frustrates her most is that she cannot openly order the hunting of Luye.

Lu Ye is the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, and more than 20 years ago, she personally welcomed Lu Ye back. In order to consolidate the faith of the Spirit Hall, she not only named her herself, but also granted amnesty to the Spirit City, and held a grand ceremony for this God-given baby girl. Lu Ye has lived in the Spirit City for seven years plus two years. In the entire Spirit City, no one is unaware of the existence of the Holy Maiden.

For the Spirit Hall's spirit masters, the Saint is a blessing bestowed by God. She is not only a person, but also a symbol of faith. If Bibi Dong now announces that the Saint has defected, it will be a collapse of faith for most spirit masters. By then, the Spirit Hall will not be far from falling apart.

Even now, all that is told to the outside world is that the Saint is in seclusion.

This really couldn't be blamed on her. Not only Bibi Dong, but even the main system and the evil god had underestimated Lu Ye's ability. If Bibi Dong had guessed that Lu Ye would bring her so much trouble, or even be able to prevent His coming, Bibi Dong would never have praised her so highly.

Although He had fallen asleep for a short time, the power of the black fog was still in Bibi Dong. If she could successfully find Lu Ye and wipe her out from this world before she grew up, she would still have a chance to turn the tables.

……

The unique method of messaging in the Central Continent is much faster than most letters. On the day the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus family left, the deer that received the wind message sent by Tang San set out directly on the road to Longxing City.

Tang San wrote to say that they were going to Longxing City to attend the gathering of the single-attribute clans in order to win over other forces. Naturally, as the number one founder of the "Wuhun Republic", she had to go with them.

After successfully negotiating two deals, Lu Ye was in a particularly good mood. She sent letters to Zhang San and others, assigned them tasks, and leisurely got on a carriage to Longxing City.

Unlike the disguise requirements for Zhang San and others, she did not change her appearance at all, and even wore the white dress she wore when she was the Holy Maiden in the Spirit Hall. She swaggered through the streets of the mainland, as if she was afraid that others would not know her existence.

After returning to the Tiandou Empire, she immediately inquired about the news about the Spirit Hall. After learning that the Spirit Hall had not announced that it would become an enemy of her, the "Saintess", Lu understood Bibi Dong's thoughts. Obviously, the identity of the Saintess protected her to a certain extent, and she even had a certain prestige within the Spirit Hall's sphere of influence, even if it was only the prestige of a mascot. As long as she did not take the initiative to declare war, Bibi Dong would not find an excuse to kill her openly.

This also means that on the surface she is still the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall and acts on behalf of the Spirit Hall.

However, this makes it easier for Lu Ye to move.

After the Soul Hunting Operation, although the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Family were not completely damaged or eliminated, two of the top three sects suffered some losses. This was also a deterrent from the Spirit Hall to the entire continent. Anyway, no one except the Spirit Hall knew the exact number of deaths, and the Douluo Continent did not have developed modern media technology. Even if they deliberately spread rumors claiming that those men in black had "escaped unscathed", it would be difficult for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Family to clarify, and they had no time to clarify.

The strength of the Spirit Hall itself is strong enough. Even if the Soul Hunting Operation fails, the number of soul masters it possesses will crush the two empires. In addition, the Spirit Hall will re-elect the seven major sects in a year, which is bound to attract many small sects that originally remained neutral to waver.

But the problem lies here - no one knows that Lu Ye is no longer a member of the Spirit Hall. The spirit masters of the entire continent all think that she is still the noble saint of the Spirit Hall.

Whether you are loyal to the Pope or the Saint, to the Spirit Empire or the Spirit Republic, most people may not notice the difference. In short, just join the Spirit Hall.

By then, Lu Ye will be able to switch the sky and the earth, and who will be able to tell who is the head of the Spirit Hall between her and Bibi Dong?

Her appearance in front of the Spirit Hall openly has two functions. One is to increase her prestige in the eyes of other people in the Spirit Hall and enhance the impression of other small sects on the Spirit Hall Saint. The other is to attract Bibi Dong's attention and firepower, and facilitate the actions of Tang San, Zhang San and others. On the surface, she is just trying to win over other forces, but in fact Tang San and others are smuggling arms, highlighting the idea of ​​building a false front while secretly marching through Chencang.

Most importantly, she has the connections of Shrek Academy and Tang San, which can help her win over some of the hostile forces of the Spirit Hall more smoothly. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. For the forces that hate the existence of the Spirit Hall, such as the Heaven Dou Empire and the Xing Luo Empire, Lu Ye can help them solve the biggest hidden danger of the Spirit Hall. Before Bibi Dong completely loses power, the two empires will definitely support her actions with both hands.

All in all, she had the best of both worlds. Apart from Bibi Dong, no one would be her enemy.

He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. The most difficult thing about usurping the throne is often not usurping the throne, but how to usurp the throne legitimately. What Lu Ye wants now is this "heart of the people".

Longxing City is located in the north of the Xingluo Empire, less than 200 miles away from the border between the two empires. It is a real border city. It is not directly under the jurisdiction of the Xingluo Empire royal family, but is the territory of a subordinate kingdom, and there are many economic and trade exchanges, and merchants come in an endless stream.

The Western feudal system has a big drawback, that is, the central power is too decentralized and the local power is too strong. There is a saying to describe this system, which is called "my vassal's vassal is not my vassal." Longxing City is a typical example. On the surface, these cities belong to the principalities and kingdoms of the Xingluo Empire, but in fact, they have long since undermined the power of the royal family, and there is even a shadow of the Spirit Hall's intervention.

The deer also looked up and down at this small city and came to the conclusion that he was very satisfied and could make a lot of money here.

It doesn’t matter, this place will be hers from now on.
