Chapter 30: Qian Renxue

Chapter 30: Qian Renxue

Bibi Dong was shocked to hear that Qian Daoliu was actually going to give the position of Pope to her and that the resolution of the elders' meeting had already been passed and even the coronation time had been determined.

She looked up in surprise, her face filled with astonishment. "You intend to make me the Pope?"

Qian Daoliu looked at Bibi Dong, who had a surprised expression on her face. He sighed softly and said calmly,

"At this stage, you are the only one who is suitable to be the Pope."

"Since I have chosen you, I will naturally do my best to recommend you for the position and pave the way for you. You can just take up the position."

"The Worship Hall and the Elder Hall won't say anything. As for the people below the elders, it depends on your ability and whether you can make them submit to you willingly."

After Qian Daoliu finished speaking, he changed the subject and said in a slightly more severe tone:

"However, I have also said that nominating you as Pope is conditional."

"Except what I told you last time."

"I also hope that you can handle the affairs of the Spirit Hall with due diligence and responsibility."

"The foundation of the Spirit Hall cannot be lost."

"As for the rest, as long as you don't cross the line, I won't interfere with you."

"You can rest assured about this."

"Okay!" Bibi Dong pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Qian Daoliu has already paved the way but has regressed a lot, and the conditions seem to be too good.

There is no need for her to be ungrateful at this moment.

Seeing that Bibi Dong had nodded in agreement, Qian Daoliu continued:

"Also, during the early period before you take over as Pope, government affairs will be handled by Yue Guan and Gui Mei first."

"As you know, the two of them are the elders of the previous pope's palace. They are more experienced in handling government affairs. They will teach you slowly in the future. After you are familiar with it, you will take over government affairs. I hope you don't mind."

"After you take over government affairs, Yueguan and Guimei will serve as the elders in front of the temple to assist you in handling government affairs."

"If you are in a hurry, you can also start participating in government affairs now."

After listening to Qian Daoliu's words, Bibi Dong lowered her head and thought for a while. She then rejected Qian Daoliu's proposal to immediately participate in handling government affairs.

"No, let's wait until after the coronation." Bibi Dong said.

She still has things to do.

After completely absorbing the body and soul of Qianxunji, she finally completed the first test of the Rakshasa God and started the Rakshasa inheritance.

Next, she needed time to change her cultivation method and prepare to open the Rakshasa Secret Realm and enter it into practice.

"In that case, I have said what I need to say. You just need to be prepared. I have something else to deal with, so I will leave first."

Qian Daoliu saw that his goal had been achieved, so he left a message and said goodbye. Without waiting for Bibi Dong's reply, he flashed out of the Holy Maiden Palace.

He wanted to go back to the Worship Hall to accompany his granddaughter, Qian Renxue, and help her get over the grief of losing her father as soon as possible.

Qian Daoliu doesn't want his granddaughter, Qian Renxue, to suffer any psychological trauma because of this.

He was not in the temple for a month.

Qian Renxue sensed the strange atmosphere in the Spirit Hall, so she came out of her training state and walked out of the room.

Then she was surprised to find that she and the three priests were the only two people left in the entire worship hall.

The whereabouts of the other several worshippers are unknown.

Even Grandpa Qian Daoliu didn't know where he had gone.

The clever and resourceful Qian Renxue quickly realized that something big might have happened in the Spirit Hall.

Under her persistent questioning, the three priests who stayed behind had no choice but to tell her the truth.

Upon learning that her father had died, Qian Renxue was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze. She could not accept such a blow for a moment and immediately fell into extreme grief, crying for several days in a row.

No matter how the three priests who stayed behind tried to persuade and comfort her, it was of no avail.

Seeing that Qian Renxue's condition was getting worse and worse, the third priest was at a loss, feeling worried and anxious.

Fortunately, Qian Daoliu returned in time, and the three priests finally breathed a sigh of relief.

With Qian Daoliu's careful comfort and companionship, Qian Renxue finally felt better.

...

Worship hall.

Qian Daoliu's figure appeared in the hall.

Sensing that Qian Daoliu had returned, Qian Renxue immediately ran out of the room and threw herself into her grandfather's arms like a young swallow.

"Grandfather!"

Qian Renxue raised her little face and called Qian Daoliu affectionately, her voice soft and coquettish.

As soon as he saw his granddaughter, Qian Daoliu's expression instantly became gentle and kind.

Looking at his granddaughter, Qian Renxue, who was only nine years old but already over 1.5 meters tall and had grown into a graceful young lady, Qian Daoliu could not help but sigh in his heart.

"The Soul masters of Douluo Continent always develop so fast. I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, Xiaoxue's body would have grown so much at her age. It seems that it is time to teach her some things."

With his mind made up, Qian Daoliu reached out and gently stroked Qian Renxue's long golden hair, saying with a smile on his face:

"Xiaoxue, you have grown up and are now a big girl. You can no longer hug and get close to Grandpa like this."

"It's not just Grandpa; other men are not allowed to do that either! As the saying goes, men and women should not touch each other, so you need to be careful. Do you understand?"

"Oh." Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue immediately broke away from Qian Daoliu's arms.

Anyway, what Grandpa said was right; she just had to listen to him.

However, when she thought about how her grandfather had just left her alone in the worship hall, Qian Renxue still felt a little unhappy.

Then she took Qian Daoliu's hand and shook it, pouted her lips slightly, and asked Qian Daoliu:

"Grandpa, where did you go just now?"

Hearing his granddaughter's question, Qian Daoliu also heard the unhappiness in her words, and he patiently explained:

"Grandpa is off to deal with Spirit Hall affairs. He just came back from the elders' meeting."

"Xiaoxue, you also know that the situation in the Spirit Hall is a bit chaotic right now. There are some things that Grandpa must personally deal with."

"The Spirit Hall's huge foundation will still be passed on to you in the future, so Grandpa must help you protect it first."

"And the purpose of this meeting is to determine the next Pope."

When she heard that it was about the next Pope, Qian Renxue thought of her dead father again, and her expression suddenly became a little depressed.

She asked softly, "Have you decided on the candidate?"

"Yeah." Qian Daoliu nodded. He wanted to arouse his granddaughter's interest and divert her attention. He deliberately kept her in suspense and said, "It's confirmed. Xiaoxue, guess who it is?"

Qian Renxue blinked her eyes. With her intelligence, how could she not guess it?

Looking around the entire Spirit Hall, there are only three people who are suitable to ascend to the position of Pope, namely the grandfather, herself, and... that woman.

But her grandfather has to worship the statue of angels and has no time to deal with government affairs, so it is impossible for him to take over the position of Pope again.

And she is still young.

She has no qualifications, no ability, no prestige, and knows nothing about government affairs.

In addition to the orthodox angel bloodline of the Qian family,

Qian Renxue felt that she was useless.

Naturally, the Pope can't rule the Spirit Hall.

The only one left was that woman.

That is her mother, the current saint, Bibi Dong.

She meets all the conditions, and it is perfect to choose her as Pope.
