Douluo: The Pope at the beginning, suppressing Haotian

Chapter 1 The New Pope Pei An
Douluo calendar year 246

Tang Hao of Haotian Sect had a conflict with Qian Xunji, the current leader of Spirit Hall, over his wife who had 100,000 soul beasts. In the fierce battle, Qian Xunji, the Pope of Spirit Hall, died.

Looking at the cold corpse in front of him, the Spirit Hall's chief priest, one of the Three Masters of the Soul Master World, and the invincible Limit Douluo was now heartbroken.

The usually majestic figure now looks so hunched and desolate.

Just like an ordinary old man.

Beside him stood a man in white brocade clothes.

His long white hair fell behind him like an inverted Milky Way, and his glass-colored eyes seemed to encompass the stars and all things in the universe. His face was exquisite, not like that of an ordinary person, but like a banished immortal from heaven.

Pei An looked at the corpse on the ground that had lost all life, and a thoughtful look flashed in his glazed eyes.

Unexpectedly, the plot was disrupted so much by him, but Qian Xunji still died at the hands of Tang Hao.

Pei An is a time traveler and has been in this world for nineteen years.

The classic time traveler was born an orphan, but because of his outstanding talent, he was discovered by Golden Crocodile Douluo who was looking for an opportunity to break through in the mortal world. He was brought into the Spirit Hall and accepted as a disciple.

Pei An doesn't have a system, so he can only rely on his information advantage to get opportunities.

The magical grass of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, the God of Killing Domain of the City of Slaughter, the Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring...

He planned and took possession of them one by one.

Relying on his already excellent talent, Pei An, who is only nineteen years old, has already reached level 83 in cultivation.

It's just that most people in the world don't know of his existence.

This is Qianxunji's request.

The reason he gave was that he didn't want Pei An to attract the attention of other forces to avoid any accidents.

But Pei An knew in his heart that this was just Qian Xunji's high-sounding excuse.

He simply didn't want Pei An to steal his limelight and affect his position as Pope.

After all, Pei An's achievements were so dazzling that they could easily overshadow him, the Pope.

But Pei An did not refuse.

Although Qian Xunji did it for himself, this happened to coincide with Pei An's idea.

Pei An had no intention of being in the spotlight.

A tree that stands out in the forest will be blown away by the wind. If it shines too brightly before it has enough strength, it will only attract bad attention.

So he agreed to Qian Xunji's request. Apart from obtaining those opportunities, he stayed in the Worship Hall to practice with Golden Crocodile Douluo, and had never been well-known in the outside world.

Until now, he has achieved the unprecedented and luxurious achievement of being a Soul Douluo at the age of 19, but most forces have no information about him at all.

Beside Pei An, a blonde girl hugged him tightly, her petite body trembling slightly, and faint sobs could be heard, like pearls falling on a silver plate.

Pei An was speechless, he just gently touched the girl's back, silently comforting her.

"Xiao An..."

Qian Daoliu's slightly hoarse voice slowly sounded.

He raised his head and looked at Pei An, his cloudy eyes filled with sadness and ruthlessness: "Your elder brother Qian fell at the hands of Tang Hao, but the position of the Spirit Hall's Pope cannot be vacant."

"Xiao An, in the Spirit Hall right now, I think you are the only one qualified to take on the position of Pope. What do you think?"

Pei An pursed his thin lips, as if thinking.

After a moment of silence, he nodded slightly: "Great Offering, I am willing."

"I just hope the High Priest can agree that when Xue'er grows up, I can pass this position to her at any time."

Pei An’s words made Qian Daoliu very satisfied.

Although Pei An has always been an image that has no interest in power in Qian Daoliu's mind, that's why he took the initiative to say this.

But after hearing Pei An's words, he still felt a little more satisfied.

He naturally hoped that the Spirit Hall could be controlled by their angelic lineage. If Qian Renxue was not too young and the other members of the Qian family were not capable of taking on the position of Pope, Qian Daoliu would not have intended to hand this position over to someone from another family.

But now it seems that Pei An still satisfies him.

Just think of it as him temporarily guarding the throne of Pope for Xue'er.

Qian Daoliu's idea is exactly what Pei An hopes to see.

He wanted Qian Daoliu to think so.

Pei An knew very well that if he showed how obsessed he was with power, Qian Daoliu would definitely find ways to restrict him.

Although he has the cultivation level of a Soul Douluo and is better than ordinary Titled Douluo, he is still not good enough in front of Qian Daoliu, the Ultimate Douluo.

So he had no intention of falling out with Qian Daoliu.

He had started to build an image of being indifferent to power ten years ago in order to reassure Qian Daoliu.

Lun Qiandaoliu would never have thought that a person could actually start disguising himself since childhood.

Once he has established a solid foundation in the Spirit Hall and achieved a breakthrough to the Titled Douluo level, even if Qian Daoliu could react, it would be of no avail.

At that moment, it is not certain who has the final say in the Spirit Hall.

And he said anytime, as for when exactly, that depends on him.

This is not considered a broken promise.

However, given his relationship with Qian Renxue, he won't occupy the position for too long.

Although he didn't have any good feelings towards Qian Daoliu and Qian Xunji, he felt different towards Qian Renxue.

"Brother Pei..."

Qian Renxue, the little angel who was crying while holding Pei An, raised her tearful face and spoke in a soft and sad voice, which was heartbreaking.

Pei An bent down slightly and gently rubbed Qian Renxue's silky golden hair:
"Don't be sad, Xue'er. Brother will definitely help you get revenge in the future."

This is not meant for Qian Daoliu to hear.

Pei An quite likes the girl Qian Renxue.

Although there were some conflicts between him and Qian Xunji, this did not affect the child Qian Renxue.

During the years of getting along with each other in the Spirit Hall, he had already regarded this little girl who liked to stick behind him and always called him "Brother Pei" as his own sister.

If given the chance, he wouldn't mind killing Tang Hao to avenge Qian Renxue's father's death.

Anyway, he didn't have any good feelings towards Tang Hao.

"Well, I believe in brother. Brother is the best!" The little angel Qian Renxue raised her delicate little nose and nodded heavily.

After a long time, under Qian Daoliu's complicated gaze, Qian Xunji's body was finally buried in the cemetery of the Angel Clan.

Little Qian Renxue also cried herself to sleep, held in Pei An's arms.

"Great Priest, I'm taking Xue'er to rest. Please accept my condolences." Pei An held the sleeping Qian Renxue and walked to Qian Daoliu and said.

"Thank you, Xiao An, for taking care of Xue'er." Qian Daoliu nodded slightly.

He was naturally happy about the close relationship between Pei An and Qian Renxue.

In that way, Pei An will be more likely to become Qian Renxue's sharpest sword in the future.

"It's no trouble. Xue'er is my sister. It's my duty to take care of her."

Pei An responded calmly.

He knew very well what Qian Daoliu was thinking.

But in the end, will he become Qian Renxue's sharp sword, or will Qian Renxue become his little angel? That's not certain.

Holding the little angel, Pei An left the hall.
