In Douluo Continent, the Pope used me as a substitute for my first love.

Chapter 50 In the end, they became mother and daughter.

The matter of the new pope has temporarily come to an end.

Of course, it's far from over.

In the days that follow, Wuhun City will likely become incredibly lively.

The news of Bibi Dong's succession as the new Pope quickly spread throughout the continent, shocking the people who hadn't even recovered from the fact that the Haotian Sect had become the Rat Sect. It was truly one wave after another.

Such rapid and continuous changes have made many sensitive individuals secretly wary, believing that a great era is about to begin and the times will soon undergo a major reshuffle.

Naturally, some people are happy about this while others are sad.

Let's leave those aside for now.

At this moment, Bibi Dong neither rushed to sit on the papal throne to experience the highest glory in the world, nor did she return directly to her residence. Instead, she came to the interior of the Hall of Worship, a magnificent hall with golden splendor.

Just now, when Qian Daoliu left, he left her a message, asking her to come to the Offering Hall later because he had something important to tell her.

Bibi Dong had no suspicions.

Stepping into the main hall, one finds the interior furnishings surprisingly simple, completely at odds with the ornate exterior. Apart from the statues of deities, the offering table, and seven small prayer cushions, there is nothing else.

Just by looking at it, it's easy to tell that this is a place for quiet meditation.

Each of the seven elders, dressed in golden robes and embroidered with silver, sat on a futon. Their gazes were indifferent, and they were undoubtedly the seven most important elders in the Spirit Hall.

Upon seeing Bibi Dong's arrival, the Golden Crocodile Offering and the Lion Offering were the first to smile at her in a friendly and amicable manner.

After all, the arrangements made by Bibi Dong after taking them to the Haotian Sect made them happy for quite a while.

The Rat Clan... tsk.

After them, apart from Qian Daoliu, the other four elders could no longer maintain their composure.

Among them, the expressions of the two enshrined figures, Jiangmo and Qianjun, were the most melancholy.

Depend on!

Why didn't those two brothers volunteer to join the Spirit Hall army at the Clear Sky Sect? If they had, they would have beaten Tang Xiao and made a name for themselves in history.

It's hardly the lion's turn to be a half-baked "staff bearer."

What a pity.

As for the remaining two elders, Qingluan and Guangling, they were also looking at Bibi Dong with great interest, curious about this second person in history to possess twin martial souls, and who was likely about to complete her cultivation.

"Everyone who makes offerings."

Bibi Dong nodded politely to them, then looked at Qian Daoliu, who was sitting cross-legged on the first futon in front of the statue and had not reacted much.

"I wonder what instructions the High Priest has for me?"

Qian Daoliu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Now that you are the Pope, there are some things you should know."

"Xue'er, come out."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bibi Dong was stunned for a moment. Then she saw a girl slowly walk out from behind the main hall. She had golden hair and delicate features, like a porcelain doll. She was staring at her with her big, bright eyes.

There was actually someone like this inside the main hall?

Bibi Dong was secretly surprised and suspicious. She never expected that this blonde girl, who looked very young, could deceive her senses. If she hadn't shown herself, she really wouldn't have noticed her.

Do you know who she is?

The girl didn't speak, so Qian Daoliu pointed at her and asked Bibi Dong.

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong secretly speculated, because there weren't many girls qualified to appear in this situation, and since Qian Daoliu called her "Xue'er," she quickly connected it to a person rumored to have died young—

A thousand feet of snow!

"She's... the teacher's daughter?"

After hesitating for a moment, Bibi Dong still answered with doubt.

"Um."

Qian Daoliu nodded slightly.

"Xue'er, also known as Qian Renxue, is Ji'er's daughter. Do you know why the Spirit Hall spread the news of Xue'er's early death so extensively?"

Bibi Dong shook her head.

Qian Daoliu then continued to explain:

"Because Xue'er has an unprecedented innate level 20 soul power. She was chosen by my god the moment she awakened her martial soul. She will become a god after undergoing the Nine Trials of the Angels in the future."

Innate Level 20... Nine Trials of the Angels... Becoming a God...

This barrage of news was so overwhelming that even Bibi Dong felt a bit dizzy.

Absolutely terrifying!

It should be noted that even with twin martial souls and unparalleled talent, she had absolutely no interest in such a vague and unattainable thing as becoming a god.

Now, a living, breathing young girl has appeared before me, and she's even a god-in-waiting?!

Comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable!

Afterwards, Bibi Dong calmed down and solemnly promised:

"I understand. Once we get out of here, this secret will remain buried in my heart."

Qian Daoliu nodded slightly.

"I called you here today not only to let you know about Xue'er, but there's another matter."

"What?"

In an instant, Bibi Dong suddenly felt that the atmosphere had become a little strange.

"Let Xue'er recognize you as her godmother."

"?!?!"

Bibi Dong was completely dumbfounded.

Is she... going to become a mother unexpectedly?!

Behind her, Qian Renxue's face also flushed slightly, and she couldn't help but bury her head in her chest, which was not yet very large.

Qian Daoliu glanced at his beloved granddaughter, nodded slightly in his heart, and then said:

"You know Xue'er's situation. Ji'er passed away not long ago, and her mother died unexpectedly after giving birth to her. Xue'er herself is only ten years old."

"I hope that you can take her place as her deceased mother and become her support and guardian. The Spirit Hall will need your concerted efforts and joint progress in the future."

Bibi Dong was silent for a while.

"Also, this matter concerns Xue'er's future Nine Trials of Angels."

Qian Daoliu said another sentence, but this time it was transmitted into Bibi Dong's mind in the form of a voice transmission.

After all, some things can't be said too clearly, especially not in the hands of the parties involved.

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong finally nodded and agreed.

If it concerns the divine examination, then the importance of this matter is self-evident. She may have the right to refuse, because Qian Daoliu would not force his own granddaughter, but she would not.

Even setting aside the fact that this matter would benefit me personally, even disregarding the financial implications...

Bibi Dong looked at Qian Renxue, and Qian Renxue, as if by some strange twist of fate, looked up and met her gaze.

The two looked at each other and inexplicably clicked, developing feelings for one another.

She's so cute...

She's so beautiful...

Each of them had their own thoughts.

Unbeknownst to them, the seven great worshippers quietly disappeared.

Bibi Dong noticed this and understood that this was to give her and Qian Renxue some space to get along, so she didn't mind.

At this moment, Qian Renxue slowly walked up and timidly said:

"Mother... Godmother, hello, my name is Qian Renxue."

Bibi Dong smiled slightly, gently bent down, and pulled her into her arms.

"I am Bibi Dong. If you don't mind, you can call me Mom from now on."

"Mom...Mom..."

Leaning against Bibi Dong's warm embrace, Qian Renxue suddenly seemed to remember something, her eyes instantly welled up with tears, and then she couldn't help but burst into tears.
