Bi Bidong was slightly taken aback and glanced at Gui Mei, "What? Gui Mei, do you really think I sent people to the Xingluo Empire just to question them about the intruder?"
Upon hearing this, Gui Mei's pupils contracted sharply, "Could it be that Your Holiness, your real intention is..."
Bi Bidong nodded, "Exactly, there is now the presence of abyssal creatures in the Xingluo Empire, and the people there have almost no knowledge about such creatures!"
"Therefore, perhaps this could be an opportunity to cooperate with the Xingluo Empire!"
Gui Mei seemed puzzled, "But Your Holiness, hasn't Martial Soul Hall just collaborated with the Tiandou Imperial Family?"
"If we were to collaborate with the royal family of Xingluo Empire as well, wouldn't it be..."
It's important to know that Xingluo Empire and Tiandou Empire seem peaceful!
But in reality, they are both contemplating how to destroy each other!
Bi Bidong pursed her lips, "I understand your thoughts, but though it's called a collaboration, it's really just about getting closer to the Xingluo Empire's royal family; there's no need to announce it to the world!"
Indeed, the matter of cooperation with the Xingluo Empire will not be made public!
Gui Mei suddenly realized, "I understand, Your Holiness!"
"You aim to maintain good relations with both the royal family of Xingluo Empire and the royal family of Tiandou Empire!"
This way, even if rejected by one of the sides, you can avoid being isolated and helpless!
Bi Bidong did not deny it, "It's good that you understand. Do not disclose this matter to anyone for now!"
Gui Mei's mind conjured the image of Xu Sheng, and he cautiously inquired, "And... what about Xu Sheng?"
"He can"
Bi Bidong responded almost without thinking!
She trusts Xu Sheng almost completely now!
This remark made Gui Mei's forehead immediately develop black lines...
Even Your Holiness didn't ponder before answering this topic...
It seems that in her heart, Xu Sheng is more trusted than both himself and Yueguan!
For a moment, his heart felt a bit sour...
However, Bi Bidong clearly caught this scene, "Gui Mei, you rarely show such emotions, was there anything disagreeable in my words just now?"
Gui Mei quickly snapped back and explained, "No... nothing, since it is as Your Holiness said, I naturally dare not object!"
Bi Bidong knew it wasn't that simple, but still answered, "Good that there's no objection, you and Yueguan are the ones I trust most, feel free to speak out if you have any grievances!"
"Yes, Your Holiness, if there's nothing else, I shall take my leave!"
With that said, Gui Mei turned to leave...
Watching his back, Bi Bidong furrowed her brow slightly...
Could what she said just now have upset him?
Thinking of this, she carefully recalled in her mind...
Soon after, she suddenly realized...
....
"Big brother! Did you hear about it?"
Listening to Gold Crocodile Douluo's sudden words, Qian Dao Liu paused for a moment, "Jin E, what do you mean by what I've heard?"
Could it be that another major event has occurred recently?
Gold Crocodile Douluo hesitated for a moment, "Big brother, don't you know?"
Qian Dao Liu's mouth twitched, first asking if he'd heard, and then saying such strange words...
Thinking of this, he scolded coldly, "Jin E, do you think I have a good temper?"
Gold Crocodile Douluo coughed before explaining, "Big brother, not long ago, one of the upper three families, the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, was attacked by abyssal creatures!"
Qian Dao Liu was slightly surprised, "Oh? An attack by abyssal creatures?? It seems Xu Sheng was right; the abyssal creatures that had been dormant for so long are starting to become active."
"By the way, how did the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect fare? Don't tell me they were destroyed by abyssal creatures?"
Gold Crocodile Douluo shook his head, "Not to that extent, but I suppose things aren't looking good; otherwise, why would they seek aid from various forces of the Tiandou Empire?"
"As of now, reinforcements should have arrived in time."
Hearing this, Qian Dao Liu seemed to have thought of something, "So, Bi Bidong also sent people to assist?"
Gold Crocodile Douluo nodded, "Indeed, the Pope Hall... Bi Bidong dispatched some elite from the Pope Hall to provide support!"
Qian Dao Liu was indifferent to this....
But the former paused again and said, "However... it seems Xu Sheng also went to assist!"
Listening to this, Qian Dao Liu suddenly stood up and exclaimed, "What?? Xu Sheng also went??"
Then he angrily cursed, "Has Bi Bidong gone insane? She actually sent Xu Sheng to assist!!"
Leaving aside Xu Sheng's current relationship with Worship Hall and others, he's the one who knows abyssal creatures best!
If something unexpected happens, won't facing abyssal creatures become much more complicated!
Gold Crocodile Douluo didn't expect the former to be so agitated, and quickly soothed him, "Big brother... well, Xu Sheng is also a Titled Douluo expert; there shouldn't be anything unexpected, right?"
In his view, there shouldn't be many abyssal creatures capable of harming Xu Sheng!
Qian Dao Liu forcibly contained his discontent and scolded, "There won't be anything unexpected? Jin E, I reckon your brain is muddled!"
"Did you forget about what happened at Sea God's Island??"
Gold Crocodile Douluo stiffened at his words and immediately recalled something...
"Hiss... almost forgot, back then two or three Sacred Pillars of the Sea God's Island fell at the hands of the abyssal creatures!"
"Moreover, they were all of Hyper Douluo's strength!!"
Instantly, his entire demeanor turned anxious...
"Big brother, what should we do? Xu Sheng is merely a Titled Douluo and hasn't reached the Hyper Douluo level yet. If he encounters powerful abyssal creatures, he could be in danger!"
Damn it, I've only now realized the risk involved in this matter!
Qian Dao Liu rolled his eyes, muttering sarcastically, "What else can we do? Should we just watch Xu Sheng have an accident?"
This Jin E, how is he always dropping the ball at crucial times!
He was usually competent in everything he did!
Prompted by the former's reminder, Gold Crocodile Douluo immediately came to his senses.....
"Big brother, I understand, I'll have Xiao Long and Qian Jun go to the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect to assist Xu Sheng right away!"
To his surprise, Qian Dao Liu opposed, "No!"
Gold Crocodile Douluo was a bit bewildered, "No??"
"Simply relying on those two, Xiao Long and Qian Jun, won't guarantee Xu Sheng's safety..."
Before he could question further, Qian Dao Liu blurted again, "All guest elders from Worship Hall, including you, must immediately head to the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect to protect Xu Sheng!!"
"As for whether to aid the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, that's up to you"
The Seven Treasures Glaze Sect is merely expendable; if lost, it's lost!
Though one of the upper three families, it cannot be compared to Xu Sheng!
Gold Crocodile Douluo widened his eyes, "What?? All guest elders go as well? Big brother, isn't that a bit too much?"
Even when attacking Sea God's Island, not all guest elders were deployed!
