Douluo's Golden Crocodile

Chapter 257 The Pope's Heir

Late at night, the stars were hidden in the clouds, and the entire Wuhun City seemed to be shrouded in darkness and gray.

Tianchen sat on the conical spire on the top floor of the castle, looking at the tall Pope's Palace not far away, with bitterness in his eyes.

The top of the tower was about a hundred meters away from the ground, and the gentle evening breeze became fierce here. His golden mid-length hair was blowing in the wind, and was messily scattered on his shoulders, but he had no intention of arranging it.

It is undeniable that the main responsibility for things developing to this point still lies with him.

He did not go to see Hu Liena, nor did he go to see Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling. Although his heart was very confused, he did not lose his mind to the extent that I could not see the current situation clearly.

He knew very well that neither Hu Liena nor Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling could ever let go of their grudges before he made a decision.

"Grandpa, you're here." Suddenly Tianchen slowly turned sideways and looked at the top of another conical tower on the right.

The Celestial Crocodile in golden robes had been standing there quietly for some time, with his hands behind his back. Like Tianchen, he was also looking at the brightly lit Pope's Palace in front of him.

"Chen'er, your condition is better than I thought." Tian Crocodile smiled slightly and nodded with satisfaction.

He thought Tianchen would wallow over this for a while, but in fact he was overly worried. Looking at his only grandson, Tianxiu's eyes were full of joy. In the past fifteen years, Tianchen has never let him down.

Tianchen took out a piece of silk embroidered with gold threads from the soul guide and tied up his mid-length hair behind him, revealing his handsome and angular face.

His eyes were calm and unruffled, so that no one could see anything strange at all.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will take care of things."

"Yeah." Tian Crocodile responded helplessly, and after pondering for a moment, he continued: Bibi Dong announced before that the successor of the next pope will be decided in four years."

"The heir to the next pope?" Tianchen frowned slightly. This news came too suddenly. However, he noticed his grandfather's meaningful gaze and he understood it instantly.

"Is it related to Nana?"

"The choice of the next pope's successor is between you and Nana. Four years later, you will have a public one-on-one soul battle in front of the Pope's Palace. The winner will be the successor of the next pope of Wuhun Palace.

." The crocodile sighed, the news had already spread out, and even if he wanted to stop it, it was too late.

However, he was not worried that his grandson would not be able to defeat Hu Liena, but that he was afraid that this spirit battle would completely break the fate between Tianchen and Hu Liena.

Tianchen laughed at himself and said, "Nana should have suggested this. It is in line with Nana's character."

Behind him and Hu Liena, they represented the Oblate Faction and the Papal Faction respectively. Even if he no longer wanted to accept this bet, he had to accept it.

Tianchen stood up slowly, looked at Tian Crocodile and said seriously, "Grandpa? I am going to practice in seclusion in Death Canyon for a period of time."

"You can make your own decision." Sky Crocodile flashed to Tianchen's side. Grandfather and grandson smiled at each other and landed in the flower garden in front of the castle.

In the south of the flower garden, the blue silver king is shining with a faint blue light. The crystals on the rhizomes are like dewdrops, moving with the entanglement of the vines. Surrounding the ten thousand-year-old blue silver king, there is a large area of ​​different colors.

The Begonia flowers were bought specially for Ye Lingling by Tianchen.

The grandfather and grandson walked side by side in the flower garden path. They chatted for a long time that night, and then they dispersed when they saw a burst of white fish belly appearing in the sky.

At the same time? In a majestic hall of the Papal Palace.

"Nana, have you really thought it through?" Bibi Dong sat at the head of the hall, quietly looking at Hu Liena who was kneeling on the ground in front of her.

Hu Liena's eyes were red and she nodded firmly. "Teacher? If I can't make a breakthrough, how can I be his opponent in four years? For your big plan, I am willing to take risks."

Bibi Dong's face softened a lot, and a look of reminiscence flashed in her eyes.

Looking at Hu Liena in front of her, it reminded her of her innocent self.

"Why are our destinies so similar?" Bibi Dong closed her beautiful eyes and murmured in her heart.

"Nana? In fact, you don't need to do this. It's not difficult to make those two little girls disappear from his side? Why do you bother yourself? Go there to exercise, even if your bloodline is awakened

? It’s also very possible that you won’t be able to come back.”

Hu Liena's eyes flashed with light, and she clenched and unclenched her hands. After hesitating for a long time, he still shook his head. "No, teacher, you must not do this. In fact, I have already thought about going to the Killing City to practice. Even if

If this thing hadn't happened, I would have applied to you soon. Do you still remember what I said to you when you adopted my brother and me when I was young? I said I wanted to become a Wuhundian

The second female pope. If I lose to him four years later, how can I be worthy of your teachings? I hope that wherever I go this time, you will not send anyone to protect me, and I will definitely come back."

At this time, there was no seductive look on her face, but only unparalleled determination.

Looking at the pure-minded disciple in front of her, Bibi Dong shook her head and showed a mocking smile.

After a long silence, she stretched out her hand and pulled Hu Liena up from the ground. As a person who had been there, he still didn't know what his disciple was thinking.

Whether as a teacher or the Pope of Wuhun Palace, she had no reason to stop him.

"Okay, I agree with you to go, but you have to remember that you must come back alive. This is the task the teacher has given you, and it is also a requirement for you. Do you understand?"

Staring at Bibi Dong's soft beautiful eyes, the corners of Hu Liena's eyes were a little brighter and she nodded vigorously. "Teacher, I can do it."

Bibi Dong raised her hand, and a ring shone brightly on her hand. When she turned her palm over, there was already a white skull in her hand.

"Absorb it before leaving. This soul bone is no worse than the wisdom skull, take it. After absorbing this soul bone, plus the external soul bone and the left leg bone you just obtained, there

Only in this way can we better protect ourselves.”

Hu Liena did not show any pretense, and took the soul bone with both hands with great care. Through the window, she looked sideways at the luxurious castle in the manor not far away.

Her eyes were wandering, and she didn't know what she was thinking. It wasn't until Bibi Dong spoke again that she came back to her senses, bowed respectfully, and exited the hall.

She didn't know why she did this, but one thing was certain, Tianchen's deception created an insurmountable gap in the relationship between the two.
