Douluo: Reincarnated in Danheng, a Unique Journey of Pioneering

Chapter 106 The High Priest, You Don't Want To
"clang!"

"That old bastard Qian Daoliu is such a nuisance!"

Inside the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong listened to Yue Guan's report from below, her face turning ashen. She slammed her scepter, a symbol of the Pope's status and position, heavily onto the ground.

The clear, metallic clanging sound echoed continuously in the hall, just like Bibi Dong's heart, which could not find peace for a long time.

It was so clear that things were about to be done, but that old bastard Qian Daoliu had to interfere!
"The Qiluo Tulip must belong to Nana. In Yueguan and Danheng's herb garden, besides the Holy Light Dragon Bone Flower, are there any other light-attribute immortal herbs?"

After a long silence, Bibi Dongfang finally spoke.

The best and fastest way to get that old man Qian Daoliu to back down is to find a better solution.

As the Pope, if she were to get entangled with the Grand High Priest over one matter and argue for so long without giving a definite answer, her authority as Pope would certainly be affected.

"Besides the Holy Light Dragon Bone Flower, there is another herb with the light attribute, the Morning Light Fruit. However, the Morning Light Fruit is significantly inferior to the other immortal herbs in terms of both grade and effect. I'm afraid the Grand Master will not accept it."

Yue Guan racked his brains before finally recalling the Morning Light Fruit he had seen by chance.

Sigh, this is really causing a lot of trouble.

"Then are there no other, more common, and highly effective medicinal herbs?"

Bibi Dong is thoroughly fed up with that old bastard Qian Daoliu. Once she completes the divine test and achieves the Rakshasa Godhood, she will make the Qian family and the entire Spirit Hall pay the price!

Qian Daoliu wanted the Qiluo Tulip, which was definitely for his beloved granddaughter.

What use could the tulips and basil be to his granddaughter?

The six-winged angel is already a god-level martial soul. Even if it takes the Qiluo Tulip, how much effect can it exert?
"Speaking of highly effective medicinal herbs, the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid and the Narcissus Jade Bone Immortal Herb are both quite good, but..."

Yue Guan didn't speak, but what he wanted to express was self-evident: these two immortal herbs were indeed excellent, but Qian Daoliu might not be willing to accept them!

"Then you go and talk to him."

"I?"

"Do you think anyone is more suitable to talk to Qian Daoliu about this than you?"

Bibi Dong's question left Yue Guan speechless. Indeed, it was Yue Guan himself who delivered the information about the immortal herb in Qian Daoliu's hands.

If we're talking about arguing with Qian Daoliu about immortal herbs, then Yue Guan is indeed the most suitable person to do so.

"I obey."

Seeing Bibi Dong's almost merciless gaze, Yue Guanxin knew that saying anything more would be pointless and would only displease Bibi Dong, so he could only bite the bullet and accept the task.

"Yes, this matter must be handled as soon as possible without any mistakes."

"clear."

Bibi Dong was anxious, while Qian Daoliu on the other side was also somewhat hesitant. He wanted the Qiluo Tulip because he was interested in its potential to promote the evolution of martial souls.

Xue'er's six-winged angel martial soul, even if it doesn't evolve further, can at least improve in quality, which should make the future divine trials easier.

But now, Bibi Dong also wants this Qiluo Tulip. Qian Daoliu is hesitating whether to use this opportunity to do her a favor, after all, Xue'er and her...
Having lived for so many years, Qian Daoliu's only wish now is that his granddaughter, Qian Renxue, can inherit the position of the Angel God and make the Spirit Hall great again!
"Brother, Yue Guan requests an audience."

The second enshrined golden crocodile suddenly appeared. When Qian Daoliu heard that it was Yue Guan who had come, he immediately understood what Bibi Dong meant.

"Big brother, do you want some?"

"No need, let him in and hear what he has to say."

Jin E originally intended to drive Yue Guan away directly. He also knew about Qian Daoliu's efforts to obtain the immortal herb for Qian Renxue. Everyone knew what Yue Guan wanted to do by coming at this time.

However, he couldn't make the decision for Qian Daoliu, so he came to report first.

"Greetings, Grand Elder and Second Elder." Yue Guan approached Qian Daoliu and Jin E, but before he could finish his polite greetings, Qian Daoliu interrupted him directly:
"Just say it. I'd like to see how Bibi Dong is going to make me give up that immortal herb."

Yue Guan chuckled awkwardly; this was truly a thankless and arduous task.

"The High Priest should know that the effect of the Qiluo Tulip is to stimulate the potential for the evolution of a martial soul. However, the Six-Winged Angel martial soul is already the most outstanding light-type martial soul on the continent. If one takes the Qiluo Tulip, the effect will inevitably be greatly reduced."

"Great Venerable One, you probably don't want to see such a peerless immortal plant go to waste, do you?"

The golden crocodile, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but speak up and was about to refute when Yue Guan continued:
"And most importantly, the Grand Master surely hopes that his granddaughter can achieve the greatest improvement through the immortal herb, right?"

"Well, keep talking."

Qian Daoliu raised his hand to stop Jin E from speaking, his gaze fixed on Yue Guan, for what this guy said was indeed what he was thinking.

Moreover, he never wanted to get entangled with Bibi Dong on this matter, and his request for Qiluo Tulips was purely coincidental.

Who told Yue Guan to send information that the immortal herb could promote the evolution of martial souls?

"Actually, besides the Qiluo Tulip, there are two other good options for the Grand Offering."

Seeing Qian Daoliu's attitude, Yue Guanxin couldn't help but feel a little happy. This matter seemed to have hope!

"It is an eight-petaled fairy orchid. Its medicinal properties are mild and long-lasting, and it can accelerate the cultivation speed of a Soul Master. Even at level seventy or eighty, it can still have an effect."

"The other one is called Narcissus Jade Bone, which can enhance the physical qualities of a Soul Master. It has a similar effect to the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum that I used before."

After that, the hall fell silent. No one spoke, and the atmosphere became somewhat strange.

Jin E looked at Qian Daoliu and found that the other party seemed to be seriously considering this matter.

“Go back and tell Bibi Dong that I can give up the immortal herb, but I hope she understands that my concession is not because of her.”

After a long silence, Qian Daoliu finally spoke. Yue Guan, who had been tense, finally relaxed upon receiving the reply. After a brief bow, he hurriedly left.

"Brother, why?"

As soon as Yue Guan left, Jin E couldn't wait to ask. He didn't understand why Qian Daoliu had answered so quickly without giving it much thought.

"Firstly, this matter cannot be delayed any longer and must be resolved as soon as possible; secondly, what they said does make sense, and what I care about is how to help Xue'er the most; thirdly..."

Qian Daoliu paused for a moment, then let out a helpless sigh:

"Consider it my way of making it up to her."

"clear."

Upon hearing this, Jin'e understood Qian Daoliu's inner thoughts, which were nothing more than doting on his granddaughter and making up for Qian Xunji's mistakes back then.

"That old man really said that?"

Bibi Dong was somewhat surprised by how quickly Qian Daoliu conceded. How could this troublesome old man have given in so easily this time?

But when Yue Guan uttered Qian Daoliu's last words, Bibi Dong's face instantly turned extremely gloomy:

"Heh, you can go down now. Determine the itinerary as soon as possible and set off with Mr. Danheng to collect the herbs."

After Yue Guan left, Bibi Dong kept adjusting her breathing, trying to calm herself down.

"Heh, it's not because of me."
