Douluo: Emperor of Light

Chapter 80
At some point, the atmosphere in Wuhun City became more and more tense, and even the most ordinary civilians were faintly aware of it.

The shops in the city are even more depressed, and the prices of the items sold are a little more expensive. Many dignitaries who usually have status are frowning at this time.

All signs indicated that the situation was different. They didn't know why, but they knew it was not a good thing based on their instinctive experience.

But in the most central part of the city, in the incomparably magnificent Martial Soul Hall, some big figures who understand the current situation better are more active.

A bright and spacious hall, with many people gathered here.

Although the Spirit Hall does not prohibit pleasure and banquets, such things are still rare after all.

Sean was alone, occupying a seat in an inconspicuous corner to drink and drink by himself. The warm atmosphere in the venue seemed to be out of tune with him.

Cup after cup, his face full of sorrow slowly melted away with the gradually deepening drunkenness.

"You are not young, although your soul power is profound, it is better not to drink too much."

Sean glanced at this old acquaintance, ignored him, raised his glass again and drank straight down.

The precious wine, which was as sweet as amber, was splashed on the tables and chairs by his indifferent actions, exuding a mellow aroma.

Because of his actions, the Lord Inspector was silent for a while, and then spoke again:

"The Northern Legion of the Star Luo Empire is ready, and the governor has promised us that once the chaos starts, he will restrain the southern forces of the Spirit Hall in a short time."

Sean's hand that raised the wine glass stopped, his slightly cloudy eyes raised, and he looked at the gloomy Inspector Palace Master, Lloyd.

The other party's originally pitch-black hair was stained with a trace of gray, and the slightly dilated pupils were even bloodshot.

He just stared straight at Xiao En, like a beast in desperate situation, trying to die.

At this time, the atmosphere of the banquet was high, singing and dancing music, handsome men and beautiful women, delicacies and feasts, all of which attracted everyone's attention and made them enjoy it happily.

However, the positions of the two of them were not disturbed in the slightest. It was like a depressing and silent dark world, brewing with a terrifying wind and rain.

"All the real power palace masters, more than a dozen people have reached an agreement with us, and the remaining nearly half have also assured me of neutrality. In this regard, our strength is not inferior to her."

"She Long, the two elders who stab blood went to the Heaven Dou Empire to carry out a secret mission. After receiving the news, Elder Guibao is heading to the south to command the army of soul masters."

"Elder Ju, Elder Ghost, Elder Demon Bear... That arrogant woman sent them all out. I know she did it on purpose, but this will be our only chance!"

Roy spoke faster and faster, his words became more intense, and he couldn't help revealing a trace of his suppressed deep anger at this moment, which was about to alarm the people around him.

"Useless."

Sean spoke up.

"It doesn't change anything."

After a pause of a second or two, Sean reconfirmed with a positive tone.

Lloyd raised his head slightly and raised his chin, motioning for Sean to speak clearly.

"You and I both know that the real deep foundation of the Spirit Hall lies in the Hall of Consecration, and their opinions are the key to everything."

"Could it be that...you have obtained their tacit approval?"

Sean put down his wine glass, his decadent temperament suddenly dissipated, he stared into Lloyd's eyes, and questioned unceremoniously.

"Tell me, Lloyd, for such a long time of active tandem, I believe you have already prepared."

Lloyd took a deep breath, nodded slowly and said, "Through the Golden Crocodile family, I know the opinions of the priests. They acquiesce in our actions, but ask us to let the young master be the pope after we win."

Sean stood up abruptly, the smile on his face couldn't stop spreading, and the haze in his heart was swept away.

It has only been a few years since Bibi Dong ascended the Pope's position, and she has been suppressed until now. What she relies on, apart from a little strength, is the faint support of the priests.

It was also because of the attitude of the priests that he seemed so hopeless and powerless before.

"I promise you, after the young master ascends the throne, the Spirit Hall will still be the same Spirit Hall!"

Sean said firmly.

Hearing this, Lloyd smiled in satisfaction, and several people hiding around the hall also showed their figures and smiled.

-

In Koynor City, in the church of the Wuhun branch, there is a prison.

At this time, in a dark and slightly dirty cell in the prison, Joseph looked at the person in front of him expressionlessly with his hands tied behind his back.

Ever since he knew that the one in front of him was the Lord of Douluo Palace, he no longer had any hope of hiding and escaping from here.

"As far as I know, as a member of the Inspector Hall and the presiding judge, you should be one of us. Why are you still working for that child?"

Wang Tao smiled, not at all surprised by this person's question.

A long time ago, he himself could not have imagined why he, who was originally a member of the Hall of Law Enforcement, would be transferred to the Hall of Inspectors.

It wasn't until recently that the situation became clearer and more chaotic, that he realized something in his heart.

"Thanks to you, I think that after this purge is over, I should become the chief judge. Maybe the master of the inspector hall can expect a little bit."

After hearing this, Joseph's face was gloomy.

What Wang Tao meant was that someone had already set up a layout in the inspector's hall?Do you want to quickly take over all the fruits of victory after victory and reduce losses?

He felt that his guess should be one or two points accurate, but why do these people think that their side will definitely win?

If the situation is really so easy to see clearly, how could I have chosen another path at this time, joining the Star Luo Empire?
Wang Tao ignored the other party's thoughts, took a record, looked through it twice, looked at Joseph, and said:

"Priest Joseph, according to the regulations of the Spirit Hall, the presiding judge has the right to arrest and interrogate all members below the archbishop if there is certain evidence."

"And you seem to have committed a lot of things... Then, before that, I will ask you one last time, are you willing to confess everything and cooperate with the investigation, so as to reduce your crimes."

After finishing speaking, Wang Tao corrected his posture, took out a pen and paper with a slightly serious face, and prepared to record all the information that will follow.

"According to Douluo Hall's investigation, you colluded with the nobles in the city and the Star Luo Empire to assassinate the previous bishop. While occupying the resources of the branch hall, you sold out the interests of the Spirit Hall, and even betrayed the enemy!"

"Do you admit it?"

Wang Tao asked routinely.

Joseph's complexion changed, and under Wang Tao's increasingly impatient gaze, it finally turned into a long sigh.

"Yes, I admit it."
