Douluo: Subversion Begins with the Arrival of the Traveler

Chapter 248: Kong's Whereabouts
"Your Majesty the Pope..."

At this moment, a shout came from outside the door.

Seeing this, Bibi Dong smiled apologetically at Kong and Paimon, then stood up and walked out of the courtyard.

Seeing Bibi Dong leave, Kong glanced at Paimeng, whose mouth was still covered by him.
"Why do you tell everything to others..."

“Mmm…!”

Paimon's little hands tried desperately to pry Sora's hands apart, but it was obvious that her little arms couldn't twist Sora's thighs. Her strength seemed like a tickle to Sora.

"If you promise not to say anything nonsense, I'll let you go."

"Well……"

Seeing Paimon nod, Sora withdrew his hand.

"Damn it! Traveler, I'm going to fight you!"

Paimon was freed and immediately flew to Kong's side, throwing a series of punches at his head.

"Your Majesty, um..."

After a while, Bibi Dong returned again and saw Kong fighting with Paimon. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

"Cough cough~"

Kong coughed lightly twice, and Paimon, who was riding on his neck, stopped his hand a little embarrassedly.

"Your Majesty, Qian Gongfeng has returned and is now seeking an audience outside."

Seeing that the situation was a bit awkward, Bibi Dong immediately changed the subject.

Hearing someone asking for a meeting, Paimon immediately flew aside.

"Invite him in."

Sora nodded. Qian Daoliu came back later than he expected...

"This old man pays his respects to Your Excellency..."

After receiving the consent, Qian Daoliu strode into the courtyard and saluted towards Kong with a fist clasped.

"There's no need to be so polite, please take a seat."

"Sir, I have come here to consult you on the disposal of the materials seized from the Haotian Ruins."

Qian Daoliu said respectfully.

The things they brought back this time were numerous and valuable.

I didn’t expect that the Haotian Sect is so rich, with no less than twenty ten-thousand-year soul bones.

Among them, there are seven soul bones that are one hundred thousand years old!

As for other rare things, they are countless.

Therefore, the first thing he did when he came back was to send someone to count them, and then he immediately came to report to Kong.

What he didn't know was that this batch of supplies contained more than just the Haotian Sect's wealth.

The Seven Treasures Glaze and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex were destroyed in Tang San's hands.
Almost all of the sect’s treasures were brought back to the Haotian Sect.

"Qian Gongfeng, I said before that those things belong to your Wuhun Hall."

"This……"

Qian Daoliu paused for a moment, "Sir, there are quite a few treasures among the Haotian supplies..."

"Those things are useless to me. Perhaps your Spirit Hall needs them more."

Kong waved his hand. The treasure that Qian Daoliu mentioned was nothing more than soul bone fairy grass or something like that.

In Kong's opinion, these things are not as attractive as the soul coins of this world...

"Since you are so generous, I would like to thank you on behalf of the Spirit Hall!"

Qian Daoliu knew that the person in front of him was telling the truth, so he clasped his fists and bowed deeply towards Kong.

If all those things were returned to the Spirit Hall, the overall combat capability of the Spirit Hall would be raised to another level in a short period of time!
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your gift."

Bibi Dong also expressed her gratitude.

"It's okay, it's okay~"

Kong smiled slightly and looked at Qian Daoliu.
"Oh right, Qian Gongfeng, that Poseidon..."

"Percy?"

Bibi Dong was stunned when she heard this, and then looked at Qian Daoliu who had a complicated expression.

As someone who had grown up in the Spirit Hall, she had heard rumors about Poseidon and Qian Daoliu when she was young.

"Sir, Xi... Poseidon has been brought back by me and is now in Wuhun City."

Qian Daoliu replied.

"Why did Qian Gongfeng come back with Poseidon? Could it be that Qian Gongfeng was trapped this time because..." Bibi Dong couldn't help but feel puzzled when she heard this, and then she expressed her guess.

"Poseidon stayed at the Haotian Ruins and trapped us inside. Fortunately, His Excellency Kong came to rescue us..."

Qian Daoliu was, after all, a seasoned man of the world, and he recounted the story of how he got out without blushing or getting irritated.

"I see……"

Bibi Dong chuckled lightly,
"I was wondering, apart from a handful of people on this continent, who could possibly trap the Spirit Hall's worshippers? I never thought that the thousand worshippers would actually meet their nemesis~"

"..."

Qian Daoliu knew that Bibi Dong would not miss the opportunity to ridicule him, so he was mentally prepared when he said it.

He replied calmly:

"Pope, I am ashamed that my skills are inferior to yours~"

"Ha~"

Bibi Dong snorted softly. She said, "I'm not as skilled as you. This old bastard is really good at pretending..."

"Okay, since you've brought it back, Qian Gongfeng will take good care of it~"

Sora nodded slightly.

"……Yes."

Qian Daoliu thought that Kong had other instructions. He was thinking about how he should plead for mercy if Kong wanted to do something to Poseidon.

But after waiting for a long time, he still didn't get any instructions from Kong, so he could only respond in confusion.

"Okay, Paimon and I are going out for a walk. Thousand Priests and His Holiness the Pope are free to do as they please."

Kong looked at the sunny weather and thought it was a perfect time to go out for a walk. Who knows, he might come across some commissions.

"Then I'll take my leave."

Qian Daoliu naturally knew that Kong was trying to get rid of him, and he still had many things to arrange.

So after informing them, he left in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, I have nothing to do right now. I'll accompany you~"

When Bibi Dong heard that Kong was going out, she said directly with a thick face.

Seeing Bibi Dong say this, Kong did not refuse.

After all, Bibi Dong has done this kind of thing more than once or twice.

…………

In the Spirit Hall, in a residence arranged by Qian Daoliu himself,
Poseidon sat calmly at the table, listening to Qian Daoliu constantly persuading him.

After talking for a while, Qian Daoliu poured himself a cup of tea and drank it all, looking at Poseidon who was still as cold as an iceberg.
He sighed.
"Xixi, just stay here peacefully..."

After saying that, he got up and left.

"and many more."

Poseidon spoke and stopped him.

"Xixi, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Poseidon finally responded, Qian Daoliu thought that his persuasion had worked and Poseidon was finally moved by him.

"The Excellency you just mentioned, is that the Lord?"

Poseidon opened his red lips slightly and asked about what Qian Daoliu had just said.

"Yes, that gentleman did not make a fuss about you. You and I should be thankful."

Speaking of Kong, Qian Daoliu said gratefully.

"You mean, that master is still in Wuhun City?"

Poseidon spoke again, but this time he wanted to know what Sora was doing.

"That's right, that gentleman has no intention of leaving Wuhun City for the time being."

Qian Daoliu nodded, emphasizing that Kong would stay in Wuhun City for a long time.
Then he sighed and continued:
"Xixi, as long as that gentleman is here, the sea god you believe in won't dare to come and save you, so you don't have to be afraid of him anymore!"

"……understood."

Upon hearing this, Poseidon replied in a cold tone, then turned and walked towards the bed in the room.

"I'm going to rest."

"...Okay, if you need anything, have your servant tell me."

Qian Daoliu looked at Poseidon, who had an extremely cold temperament, gave him some instructions and then left the room.
