After saying these words to Bibi Dong, Liu Yuan's figure gradually became more ethereal.
Obviously, after the previous battle, the soul power remaining in this avatar of Liu Yuan had almost been depleted.
Now, after exchanging a few words with Xiao Wu, Bibi Dong, and the others, the soul power in this avatar had finally been completely exhausted.
Therefore, the body of this avatar gradually became more ethereal, and in the end, it completely dissipated in front of everyone's eyes.
"Not just the future..."
"I'm already surprised right now."
"After all, even after looking at you for a long time, I still can't figure out who you really are."
"So I'm really looking forward to seeing your true face in the future..."
"That must be interesting."
Bibi Dong couldn't help but force a bitter smile as she watched the disappeared Liu Yuan muttering to himself, showing a hint of helplessness.
However, she didn't continue to inquire further.
After all, Liu Yuan had the final say in this matter.
Although Bibi Dong was very curious about it, since Liu Yuan wasn't willing to say more for now, there must be reasons for it.
So Bibi Dong could only choose to accept it.
"Let's start reorganizing."
"We have suffered heavy losses this time, so let's quickly help the wounded with their treatment."
Bibi Dong quickly changed the subject and issued orders to all her soul masters.
"Yes, Your Holiness."
Upon receiving Bibi Dong's orders, the soul masters quickly began to act accordingly.
After all, even though Bibi Dong was heavily injured this time, her influence still lingered.
Moreover, they had just witnessed Liu Yuan's power.
Although many people still didn't know Liu Yuan's true identity, he had made it clear that he supported Bibi Dong.
This made others even more reluctant to oppose Bibi Dong.
After all, Bibi Dong was already formidable, and now with Liu Yuan as her backing, they definitely couldn't afford to provoke her.
The soldiers and medical corps of the Martial Soul Hall in Jialing Pass quickly busied themselves with their tasks.
And Bibi Dong also began to tally the losses from this battle and make preparations for the next one.
However...
Just at this moment, within Jialing Pass, six loud sounds erupted simultaneously, followed by six craters with a diameter of over thirty meters suddenly appearing on the ground.
Naturally, all the soldiers of the Martial Soul Hall on this side looked solemn, but soon, the smoke within the craters dissipated, revealing six dignified old men standing proudly in front of the army.
"Pay respects to the honored ones!"
The soldiers of the Martial Soul Hall immediately shouted in admiration at the six old men. These six men were dressed in golden robes, each with a different embroidered pattern made of silver thread, representing their martial souls. The golden robes and silver sleeves represented the honored members of the Elder Hall of the Martial Soul Hall.
The Martial Soul Hall had been operating for many years, and its profound foundation was unmatched by any other soul master sect. Originally, there were more than twenty titled Douluo, although some were killed by Tang San in this war, there were still a few remaining. The six individuals before them were the honored members who surpassed the elders of the Martial Soul Hall.
There were a total of seven honored members in the Martial Soul Hall, and the requirements to become one were extremely stringent. They had to have a minimum soul power breakthrough to the ninety-fourth level and at least possess soul power at the ninety-fifth level to become an honored member.
After becoming an honored member, one would have a supreme position within the Martial Soul Hall, and they could even disregard the Pope's commands and only obey the orders of the Chief Honored Member, Qian Daoliu.
This was also the main reason why Liu Yuan had always believed that Bibi Dong didn't hold real power within the Martial Soul Hall and was just a puppet under Qian Daoliu's control.
Because the strongest fighting force of the Martial Soul Hall was the honored members of the Elder Hall.
However, these honored members deliberately ignored Bibi Dong's commands and only obeyed Qian Daoliu.
And Qian Daoliu himself was the strongest individual within the Martial Soul Hall.
Therefore, Bibi Dong could only be considered as a facade of the Martial Soul Hall.
She was the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall in name, but in reality, she had no say in many matters.
Once her opinions clashed with Qian Daoliu's, she could only choose to comply. That's why Bibi Dong, as the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall, didn't have an easy time.
Liu Yuan was still in seclusion for now.
When he truly came out of seclusion, he would help Bibi Dong eradicate all these dissidents.
Those willing to submit would submit, and there was no need for those who were unwilling to submit to exist.
Otherwise, having people like that above Bibi Dong's head, what would that be considered?
...
Of course, at this moment, Liu Yuan hadn't come out of seclusion yet, and the plan couldn't be carried out.
Therefore, these honored members appeared extremely arrogant.
Ignoring the admiration of countless disciples of the Martial Soul Hall, they didn't even spare a glance when facing Bibi Dong. They were completely cold and indifferent in their expressions as they stood in front of her.
The leading figures of the honored members, headed by the Golden Crocodile Douluo, quickly spoke up and said to Bibi Dong, "The Supreme Elder has given an order for you to immediately return to the Martial Soul City. You can leave now."
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong suddenly became furious and glared at the Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others in front of her. "Second Honored Member, don't forget that I am the highest ruler of the Martial Soul Hall, the Pope!"
However, the Golden Crocodile Douluo sneered disdainfully and said, "How audacious, Bibi Dong. Don't think that becoming the Pope gives you unrestricted freedom. Yes, you may be high and mighty when facing others as the Pope, but to us honored members, you are nothing."
"I will emphasize it once again, immediately return to the Martial Soul City and stay there. This is the Supreme Elder's command. Or do you plan to defy the order?"
The Golden Crocodile Douluo showed no regard for Bibi Dong while speaking, completely ignoring the fact that there were many disciples of the Martial Soul Hall present.
After all, many of them were originally part of the Qian Xunji faction. They were well aware of what Bibi Dong had done to Qian Xunji back then, so they had long held deep resentment towards her.
It was only because of Qi Rongyue that Qian Daoliu hadn't killed Bibi Dong. Otherwise, as honored members, they would have executed Bibi Dong together with Qian Daoliu long ago.
Therefore, since they couldn't execute her now, their attitude towards Bibi Dong was naturally extremely poor. They had always made things difficult for her, and their words and actions were full of sarcasm. Now that they had an opportunity to humiliate Bibi Dong in front of everyone, they were more than willing to do so.
"You... you..."
Bibi Dong was almost infuriated to the point of spitting blood by the Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others. Her vision blurred, and she nearly fainted.
It was Xiao Wu who stepped forward and supported Bibi Dong at this moment.
She memorized the appearance of each and every one of these honored members in front of her.
With her understanding of Liu Yuan, once she informed him of what was happening here right now, when Liu Yuan emerged from seclusion, all these so-called honored members would not be able to escape their fate.
