Bibi Dong's Troubled Heart! Perhaps It Was Time to Wake Up!

"Could it be that the Xiaogang in my heart was truly born from the rose-tinted lens of my youth?"

"Why has no one ever supported Xiaogang and me all these years?"

"Why did Qian Xunji choose to hurt me back then, just to make me leave him?"

"Why does everyone in the world say Xiaogang is a fame-seeking fraud who's good for nothing?"

"Why am I the only one who sees it, or rather, the only one who thinks he's so outstanding..."

"Why..."

Bibi Dong's string of questions seemed to challenge a world that had never understood her, but in truth, she was questioning her own heart.

People in this world were not unable to wake up; they simply did not want to.

But when the plainest truth appeared in the most direct way, the shock it caused them was immense.

At this moment, Bibi Dong finally began to doubt herself.

Perhaps Liang Hao is right...

And perhaps my judgment isn't superior to everyone else's after all...

Xiaogang, are you really deceiving me?

The seed of doubt had been thoroughly planted in Bibi Dong's heart. It only needed time to take root, and her feelings for Yu Xiaogang would eventually fade.

From this moment on, the emptiness Bibi Dong had accumulated over the years began to spread through her without her noticing.

If she no longer had Yu Xiaogang, who should she turn to as her emotional anchor?

Xiao Xue, or... this so-called disciple of hers...

The Douluo II era.

In the Sea God Pavilion.

Mu En sat in his wheelchair, looking at the screen with a sense of helplessness.

Seeing Liang Hao's scathing assessment of Yu Xiaogang with his own eyes on the screen this time had affected him deeply as well.

Mu En murmured, "Whatever else he is, Yu Xiaogang is still my ancestor."

"Since ancient times, he's been held up as a divine teacher, a model for the whole Douluo Continent and a representative of Shrek Academy."

"But I never imagined that in the Douluo I era, my ancestor's true face was like this."

"All kinds of details can also be corroborated by records from ancient times."

"Sigh, how did I end up with an ancestor like this..."

"Now that Liang Hao has finished his scathing assessment, I'm afraid our entire Shrek Academy will lose face because of it."

"I need to pass down instructions to change our publicity strategy. We should promote the Grandmaster less from now on."

Mu En was frustrated that Yu Xiaogang had failed to live up to expectations. He even wished he could travel back to Douluo I and give his ancestor a beating.

He couldn't understand how Yu Xiaogang had produced a descendant like him.

The Douluo I era.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Yu Yuanzhen's eyes twitched, and he was consumed with anger.

He stared at the screen, already in a furious rage. "It was bad enough that this unfilial son has been making a spectacle of himself out there all these years!"

"I never expected word of his stupidity to reach Liang Hao, and now it's spread across the entire Douluo Continent!"

"The name of my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will be ruined by him alone sooner or later!"

"Unfilial son! He truly is an unfilial son!"

"No, for the sake of my clan's reputation, I can't leave this alone any longer."

"I must find someone to bring that beast back at once, before he disgraces us any further!"

Heaven Dou City.

Blue Tyrant Academy.

Liu Erlong was even more loyal than Bibi Dong. She cursed directly at the screen:

"You piece of shit, Liang Hao! Are you looking for death?"

"How dare you insult my Xiaogang and make him lose face like this!"

"You just wait. If you return to reality, I don't give a damn whether you live or die—I'll chop you to pieces!"

"Even becoming a Titled Douluo won't help you! Even a god won't be able to stop me. Mark my words!!"

Nuoding Academy.

Tang San was even more furious, his gaze venomous.

He too stared at Liang Hao on the screen.

Because of Yu Xiaogang, and because Liang Hao was more talented than him, Tang San naturally felt hostile toward him.

Tang San said coldly, "This brat has subjected my teacher to every kind of insult. It seems that he has gone beyond merely courting death!"

"Xiao Wu, when Liang Hao returns to reality, you and I must avenge our teacher!"

But Xiao Wu felt somewhat differently about what Tang San had said.

She had already been displeased with Tang San because of Yu Xiaogang.

And now he wanted her to go up against someone who, when he came out in the future, would most likely be a Titled Douluo, all for Gangzi's sake?

The more Xiao Wu thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. Did Tang San really not care whether she lived or died?

She didn't respond, but thought to herself, Has Xiao San been brainwashed by Yu Xiaogang until he's lost his mind?

With talent like that, Liang Hao is sure to grow into a powerhouse in the instance.

When he comes out, what will I have to face him with?

Besides, I think what Liang Hao said makes a lot of sense. The Grandmaster really doesn't seem like someone with a profound foundation...

If the Grandmaster can't make me stronger, do I still have to listen to him?

I want to grow stronger. I want the strength to take revenge!

I can't help feeling Liang Hao is more reliable than the Grandmaster...

Those were Xiao Wu's true thoughts.

Xiao Wu had only been in the human world for six years, and revenge and growing stronger were still on her mind.

If things went as they had in the original story, after living with Tang San for a few more years, she would gradually forget about revenge.

Fortunately, she still remembered it now.

So if Yu Xiaogang was no good, she was genuinely willing to give up on Gangzi now.

Xiao Wu continued watching the screen, never responding to Tang San.

Similar scenes were playing out all across the continent. At this moment, Yu Xiaogang's reputation had probably suffered a real blow.

But Yu Xiaogang still refused to accept it and was still thinking of proving himself when the time came.

Yu Xiaogang knew that as long as Liang Hao couldn't actually absorb the so-called Thousand-Year Soul Ring, what he had said would be right.

When that happened, his reputation would recover.

Yu Xiaogang was waiting too. He was determined to see just how Liang Hao could possibly absorb a Thousand-Year Soul Ring!

He absolutely refused to believe such a thing was possible!

On the screen.

Picking up where things had left off, Liang Hao's words had left Bibi Dong speechless.

After Liang Hao finished speaking, Bibi Dong in the instance found herself believing him a little.

To put it plainly, it was just a matter of piercing that thin layer of paper over the window.

If Bibi Dong tried to cover her ears while stealing a bell and deceive herself again, it would be difficult for her to do so.

Bibi Dong had been silent for a long time. Only now, after spending so much time on it, had she slowly begun to accept some of it.

She no longer wanted to continue on this subject. She needed to calm down.

So she let out a long sigh and took the initiative to speak to Liang Hao, intending to change the subject:

"Sigh..."

"Enough, Xiao Hao. Your teacher knows you care about me."

"But I'm afraid there are some things you children can't understand."

"You say your teacher is too close to see clearly, but how many people in this world are willing to accept the cruelty of reality?"

"Let's not speak of it anymore. First, let's find you a Soul Ring."

After saying this, Bibi Dong's expression grew much more downcast.

Liang Hao understood that he couldn't rush things. Since Bibi Dong had said something like that, it meant his revelations had worked.

Once doubt took hold, Bibi Dong would awaken on her own as time passed.

Liang Hao nodded as well, ready to focus on his Soul Ring.

He replied, "In that case, Teacher, I won't say any more."

"In any case, Teacher, rest assured. Even without Yu Xiaogang, you still have me! I'm your disciple, and I'll stay by your side!"

Those words startled Bibi Dong once more.

For some reason, Bibi Dong felt a warmth in her heart instead.

The look in her eyes as she gazed at Liang Hao grew even more complicated...
