Chapter 178: I got angry

Kong carefully recalled the timeline. It seemed that even the Soul Master Competition had not started yet. Qian Renxue should not have been exposed so early.

Could it be caused by some other reason?

"Forget it, let's not get into this bad luck. Brothers, let's go somewhere else first."

After hearing the man's mysterious words and having learned from previous experiences, several bounty hunters hesitated for a while and then retreated.

At the same time, some people around had the same idea and simply didn't bother to queue up. They walked away muttering indignantly.

"Traveler, the Crown Prince they are talking about is not Qinghe, right?"

Paimon also heard the news and was a little overwhelmed for a moment.

Kong nodded. "If it's really her, then we probably won't be able to get in. Let's go and find a place to rest. Dugu Bo should be in the city. I'll try to inform him and get some information from him."

The place where they lived before was the Prince's Mansion. Seeing that the city gate was heavily guarded, they would inevitably encounter trouble if they went there.

After all, what they should be guarding against are the prince's accomplices and spies. People like themselves who had close communication with her before were probably already on Emperor Xue Ye's blacklist.

Kong brought a few people to an inn not far from the city. After renting a room and settling down, he released his elemental power and intentionally dispersed towards Tiandou.

He had activated his elemental vision before and sensed that there were two gray shadows in Tiandou City with powerful soul power like those of Titled Douluo.

He didn't know who one of them belonged to, but the other one gave him a familiar feeling. He thought it should be Dugu Bo.

He is now releasing the elemental power in order to let Dugu Bo sense it. If he is not too stupid, he will surely come here to look for it.

The inn was rather simple, so there was nothing much to eat.

Several people stayed in the room. Just as the waiter brought a pot of tea, a dark green figure appeared outside the door.

"You, you are His Majesty the Poison Crown?"

The waiter had sharp eyes and recognized at a glance that the person standing outside the door was Dugu Bo, who had lived in Tiandou City for a long time. He couldn't help but greet him with some fear.

"Sir, it really is you!"

Dugu Bo ignored the waiter and looked at Kong and everyone in the room with excited eyes. He took a few steps forward, bent his knees, clasped his fists, and saluted Kong, his voice trembling.

"Eh? It's Grandpa! Grandpa, long time no see~"

Paimeng greeted the newcomer in a familiar manner. Ever since Dugu Bo's martial spirit defect was repaired, he no longer emitted that unpleasant odor.

However, the impression he left in Paimon's mind was still more pronounced due to his smelly features.

"Ms. Paimon, long time no see." Dugu Bo smiled kindly and responded with a fist salute.

Then he looked at Yu Keke and Zhu Zhuqing standing beside him. He had seen both of them before, but he was surprised to see them standing in front of him together.

One was a little girl I'd known for a long time and who was always with me. The other one, from what my granddaughter had said, was probably a student at some academy! Why was she with me?
The reason why the adults left Tiandou was because this little girl was persecuted by the scum in that damn Shrek Academy.

But wasn't the little girl dead at the time? Could it be that the adults had used some magical method to bring her back to life?

Thinking of this, Dugu Bo's heart trembled, and he didn't dare to ask, but turned his gaze to Kong again.
"Sir, are you back because of Xue Qinghe's matter?"

Kong shook his head. Before he could say anything, Paimeng rushed to ask, "Grandpa, we just heard outside that something happened in Qinghe. What happened?"

Paimeng was actually very anxious. If he had to talk about friends on this continent, Xue Qinghe was definitely one of them.

She thought they would meet again, but she heard something might have happened as soon as she arrived. How could she not be worried?

"My Lord, don't you know yet?"

Dugu Bo saw several people shaking their heads slightly, then walked to the door and sent the waiter away. After closing the door, he continued:
"Sir, Xue Qinghe is suspected to be a member of the Spirit Hall. You should be aware of this, right?"

After saying this, he realized that his words seemed a little inappropriate.

During the period of Tiandou, you can live in the Prince's Mansion. Xue Qinghe, the Prince of Tiandou, also treats you as a guest official.

The connection between them is quite close. The adult in front of him must know who Xue Qinghe is.

Asking this myself, it almost seems like I'm investigating...

He was about to explain when he saw Sora nod.

Apparently, Kong didn't take this to heart. Dugu Bo was slightly embarrassed, bowed slightly, and then said:
"My Lord, this is what happened..."

As Dugu Bo explained the whole story, everyone finally understood what was going on.

It turned out that one day half a month ago, an extremely violent aura of a Titled Douluo suddenly appeared in the Prince's Mansion.

For the soul master who appeared inexplicably in the imperial city, the royal family's secret guards or hidden priests would definitely go to investigate immediately.

Dugu Bo was also in Tiandou at that time. After sensing the presence, he followed the trail and rushed over.

Only then did they discover that it was Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, who appeared in the Prince's Mansion.

Originally, the appearance of Pope Bibi Dong did not affect anything. At most, it just meant that someone in the Prince's Mansion had some relationship with the Pope of the Spirit Hall.

But Bibi Dong didn't know what was going on. Her emotions were out of control that day. She had an argument with the prince in the prince's mansion and even released her soul power.

The powerful men worshipped by the Tiandou royal family wanted to enter the Prince's Mansion, but they never expected that there were two Titled Douluo in the Spirit Hall outside the door who stopped those who wanted to spy inside.

All of a sudden, the royal guards and hidden priests rushed to the Prince's Mansion and surrounded it tightly. Both sides were in a stalemate.

After Emperor Xue Ye found out, he personally went to the scene. Just as the two sides were about to fight, Bibi Dong walked out of the Prince's Mansion, looking distraught.

Emperor Xue Ye started to question, but Bibi Dong ignored him and directly withdrew from Tiandou with the two Titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall.

Later, when Emperor Xue Ye entered the Prince's Mansion and wanted to know why Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, appeared in the Prince's Mansion, the Prince directly turned him away.

Emperor Xue Ye was furious for a moment, and then returned to the palace in anger. Among the clues collected by the spies,

It was discovered that the Titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall who was in charge of guarding the gate that day had been hiding beside Xue Qinghe.

If this incident hadn't happened, no one would have known that two Titled Douluo from the Spirit Hall had been quietly planted in Tiandou City!
This could not help but make Emperor Xue Ye suspicious. What kind of connection did his prince have with the Spirit Hall?
As the investigation deepened, the emperor finally discovered the clues.
