Chapter 247: This Move, A High-Level Game
Tang Hao's words instantly snapped Bibi Dong to her senses.
Now that Spirit Hall—or rather, Bibi Dong herself—and the Tang Sect and Jiang Li were already at each other's throats and had completely dropped all pretenses, she naturally no longer needed to worry about the reputation of outnumbering the few.
What's more, the Jiang Li before her was actually a powerhouse with Twin Martial Souls, just like her!
Not only had the opponent cultivated to Rank 97, but even the two Soul Rings on that second Martial Soul gave her an extraordinary feeling!
If she allowed such a Prodigy to continue growing, he would undoubtedly become a major threat to her in the future!
Furthermore, that rebellious daughter hadn't made any moves, which was for the best.
There were already enough variables now; she absolutely did not want anything else to happen beyond her expectations.
Bibi Dong's Aura suddenly shifted. The original Death Spider Emperor faded away, replaced by her even more hideous and terrifying second Martial Soul, the Soul Eating Spider Emperor!
Her entire body was covered in a layer of crystalline ink-green light, and eerie web-like patterns appeared on her surface.
Three pairs of thick ink-green spider legs burst from her back, and her arms transformed directly into sharp ink-green spears.
And beneath her feet, seven suffocating Soul Rings—six black and one red—slowly rose.
This Heaven-Defying Soul Ring configuration caused everyone present to gasp.
"Jiang Li! This Pope truly never expected that beneath your glamorous exterior, you are actually an unpardonable Fallen Spirit Master!" Bibi Dong looked down from above, immediately resorting to moral kidnapping tactics in an attempt to criticize Jiang Li from a moral high ground. "Since you, a demon, dare to show your face in Spirit City today, then leave your life here!"
Facing this heavy accusation, not a hint of panic could be seen on Jiang Li's face.
As everyone knew, as long as he had no morals, others could forget about using morals to kidnap him.
"Bibi Dong, oh Bibi Dong, you've been the Pope of Spirit Hall for so many years in vain; your eyesight is actually so poor!" Jiang Li shouted with righteous indignation. "The Aura swirling around this Human Emperor Banner in my hand is clearly the blackish-purple Grandmist Purple Qi! It is the Supreme Dao! For you to call a stag a horse and label me a Fallen Spirit Master, just what are your intentions?"
Hearing his Master's righteous reprimand, Tang San, who was hiding in the back, felt as if he had been enlightened and instantly understood.
That's right! How could a true gentleman as upright and pure as Master be an evil Soul Master?
Those blackish-purple gases circling Master's Martial Soul must be the result of Master acting for heaven and slaying those evil-doers, only for his Martial Soul to be polluted by the filthy Bloodlines of those villains!
"Exactly! Master is right! You in Spirit Hall are clearly slandering him!"
Tang San roared out, filled with righteous indignation.
"Moreover, this evil Aura was clearly stained upon him after he slew those naturally evil Tang Family members with filthy Bloodlines!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the gazes of the powerhouses from the various major Sects all fell upon Tang San.
Astonishment, fear, thoughtfulness...
Everyone's expression was different.
Not far away, Tang Hao felt his vision go dark, nearly spitting out another mouthful of blood in anger.
He could not understand at all what kind of bewitching soup that wicked little thief Jiang Li had fed this rebellious son to make him spout such shameless nonsense in public.
To tarnish the Sect he cherished most like this, this damned rebellious son was simply outrageous!
However, this absurd scene was clearly just a minor interlude.
Bibi Dong knew very well that the combat power Jiang Li had just displayed was too terrifying. If those old fogies in the Hall of Worship continued to play dead and not intervene, it would be difficult to completely keep Jiang Li here today with just herself and her subordinates.
Involuntarily, her eyes flickered, and she immediately set her sights on Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin, who had remained silent nearby.
"Sect Master Ning, Sword Douluo!" Bibi Dong called out loudly. "Facing such a Fallen Spirit Master who harms the world, everyone under heaven has a duty to eliminate him! As one of the Upper Three Sects, surely the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect won't choose to aid a villain at a time like this?"
"Or does Sect Master Ning plan to hedge his bets as he did before?"
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi cursed under his breath; he really couldn't avoid these muddy waters after all.
"Your Holiness, you overstate things. Facing evil ways, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will naturally contribute its meager strength."
Ning Fengzhi agreed without changing his expression, but his mind was racing.
He had calculated very clearly; no matter how great Jiang Li's divine abilities were, being besieged by so many top powerhouses, it would be extremely difficult for him to resolve things today.
On the other hand, Spirit Hall was currently powerful and aggressive. If he didn't take this opportunity to take a stand, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would surely face devastating retaliation afterward.
Furthermore, he had already prepared for a rainy day by dispersing the Core Disciples of the Sect in batches, leaving himself plenty of escape routes.
Since his retreat was secured, what was there to be hesitant about?
Experts were as common as clouds within Spirit Hall; it was still unknown what the final outcome of today's events would be!
Accompanied by a brilliant treasure light, an exquisite Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda appeared in Ning Fengzhi's palm.
He was not stingy with his Soul Power, as various powerful amplification attributes were precisely applied to Chen Xin, Bibi Dong, and even Tang Hao as if they cost nothing.
In an instant, the Auras of several people surged wildly!
Even Bibi Dong, who had been suppressed to Rank 98 due to her Divine Trial, could temporarily burst forth with the combat power of a Peerless Douluo under Ning Fengzhi's full amplification!
"Little San, protect yourself and your companions!"
Facing such an encirclement by many powerhouses, Jiang Li also felt that things were a bit tricky.
This wave could be considered one of the few high-level games he had faced since his debut.
But on the surface, he remained unfazed, only secretly transmitting his voice to Tang San,
"If the situation becomes irreversible later, even if I have to risk the danger of falling, I will forcibly tear open a path to survival!"
"When that time comes, do not hesitate; immediately head to the offshore Sea God Island! Once you have enough strength to protect yourselves, then consider returning to the Douluo Continent!"
Hearing these resolute words from his Master, which sounded like final instructions, Tang San's eyes instantly turned blood-red!
Was everything that happened in that illusion—the tragedy where Master died miserably to protect him—going to repeat itself in reality today?
He would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen!
At this moment, Tang San intensely hated his weak powerlessness.
Every time he encountered a true crisis, he had to rely on his great Master to resolve it!
Tang Hao, Bibi Dong, Ning Fengzhi!
These sanctimonious hypocrites!
They all have a path to seeking ones own death!!!
