I Have Prepared a Secret Chamber for You
Bibi Dong reacted quickly.
Otherwise,
that wandering hand would have landed on her chest.
Cao Mengde wore a bitter expression.
He put on a stern face and asked,
"Your Holiness the Pope, what kind of man do you take me, Cao Mengde, for?"
"If my hand doesn't touch you, how can I relieve the tightness in your chest?"
Bibi Dong's face turned icy.
She immediately retorted,
"Can't you treat me from a distance using Soul Power?"
Treat her from a distance?
Cao Mengde didn't know how.
Even if he did, he would never do it.
"Treating you from a distance would inevitably weaken the treatment, and your condition would never be treated effectively. Only by placing my palm on the affected area can I cure Your Holiness's ailment."
"No!" Bibi Dong said in a low voice.
Immediately afterward,
she got off the bed, preparing to leave.
Cao Mengde didn't mind.
He said casually,
"Getting treatment is your choice, Your Holiness. You're free to leave, but I think you know better than anyone what it feels like to be plagued by illness."
Bibi Dong stopped in her tracks.
Her grip on the scepter tightened, almost drawing blood.
For the past three days,
her chest had felt extremely tight.
It had left her restless and in no mood to do anything.
But
she was utterly resistant
to intimate contact with the opposite sex.
Hmm?
She could wait until Cao Mengde cured her,
then kill him.
Wouldn't that solve the awkwardness as neatly as a blade splitting bamboo?
With that thought,
Bibi Dong lay back down on the bed.
"Go ahead."
"As long as you can cure me, I will not treat you poorly."
To keep Cao Mengde in check,
she offered him a few pleasant words.
"That's more like it."
Cao Mengde summoned his Martial Soul again.
Gynecology Divine Hand.
His gaze fell on Bibi Dong's towering curves.
First Soul Skill.
Touch.
Cao Mengde placed his right hand on her.
At once,
warmth and softness reached his palm.
Because of the layer of clothing,
they seemed even more pert.
"I'm warning you. If your hand dares to move out of place, I'll take your life immediately."
Cao Mengde couldn't resist rolling his eyes.
He said with a meaningful sigh,
"Your Holiness, why are your thoughts always so filthy?"
"I'm treating you, yet you suspect me of taking advantage of you?"
Though that was what he said,
Cao Mengde's actions didn't match his words.
He still hadn't begun the treatment.
Using the first Soul Skill's negligible power, he intended to savor this wonderful moment a little longer.
Bibi Dong's expression was tense.
His right hand rested on her chest, quite close to her two sensitive mounds.
She could even feel
the edge of Cao Mengde's right hand pressing against them.
"How long do you need?"
"An hour will do."
"What? An hour?" Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
Cao Mengde shrugged.
"Of course."
"You can also give up on treatment."
In fact,
as long as Cao Mengde used his ninth Soul Skill,
he could remove the affliction imposed by the system within two and a half minutes.
As for why he used his first Soul Skill,
don't ask.
If you must ask, it was to take advantage of her.
"Continue the treatment," Bibi Dong said, suppressing her anger.
Once she was cured,
the first thing she would do was kill Cao Mengde.
Even if he had done her a favor, she would show him no mercy.
Once Cao Mengde had felt enough,
he finally took his time and formally began treating Bibi Dong.
Ninth Soul Skill.
Healing Hands.
In an instant,
green light radiated from Cao Mengde's hand.
Fine strands of it began flowing into Bibi Dong's chest.
The next moment,
Bibi Dong's labored breathing immediately eased.
The tightness blocking her chest
soon disappeared.
"All done. Your Holiness's ailment is cured."
Bibi Dong slowly sat up on the bed and returned to her feet.
[Ding...] [Medical Treatment System notification: Congratulations, host. You have successfully treated Bibi Dong and gained one Soul Power level.]
Unbeknownst to him,
Bibi Dong's expression turned vicious.
Now that her illness was gone,
the man who had defiled her body had to die.
An External Soul Bone quietly extended from her back, purple from end to end, its sharpness chilling to behold.
"Your Holiness, what are you doing?"
Sensing the pressure appear behind him, Cao Mengde spun around.
He saw the vicious look in Bibi Dong's eyes as she controlled her External Soul Bone and stabbed at him.
Cao Mengde had no time to think.
He immediately released his Soul Power pressure to resist.
Unfortunately,
his level 92 Soul Power was far below Bibi Dong's.
He simply couldn't withstand her pressure, and sweat soon covered his forehead.
"You..."
"You're killing the donkey after it's finished turning the millstone?"
As soon as the words left his mouth,
Cao Mengde felt they weren't quite right.
How could he call himself a donkey?
Wasn't he insulting himself?
Of course,
in his current peril, he had no leisure to correct himself.
"Anyone who has defiled my body must die."
"Cao Mengde, give up struggling. I'll give you a swift death."
Good grief.
This Bibi Dong really was an expert at tearing down the bridge after crossing the river.
Her illness was gone, and she immediately turned on him as though she didn't know him.
Cao Mengde was a healing-type Soul Master. All nine of his Soul Rings had granted him healing Soul Skills; only the second skill of his ninth Soul Ring was an offensive Soul Skill. Unfortunately, under this pressure, he couldn't use it.
"They say nothing is more venomous than a woman's heart. Your Holiness, you'll regret this."
Cao Mengde knew he couldn't beat Bibi Dong.
But he wasn't afraid.
He immediately called up the system.
System.
Inflict Bibi Dong with an affliction.
Irregular periods, abnormal vaginal discharge, and severe bleeding.
[Ding...] [Disease Treatment System notification: Host has successfully inflicted Bibi Dong with an affliction.] [Current symptoms: irregular periods, abnormal vaginal discharge, and severe bleeding.]
"Your Holiness, even if I die, you won't have an easy time either."
Hearing that,
the overwhelming force of Bibi Dong's attack eased.
"What do you mean?"
Cao Mengde smiled faintly.
"When I treated you just now, I discovered that you had other serious ailments. Within three days, you'll start bleeding heavily from your lower body until you die."
Panic instantly swept over Bibi Dong's icy, beautiful face.
But it lasted only an instant.
She quickly grew confident again.
"Death is at your door, and you're still trying to scare me?"
That was right.
She was about to kill Cao Mengde.
He had made up a lie to save his life.
Heavy bleeding from her lower body?
It was an insult to her.
"Die."
With those words,
Bibi Dong poured all her Soul Power into her External Soul Bone.
The sharp Spider Spears continued forcing their way through Cao Mengde's Soul Power defense, stabbing toward his heart.
Cao Mengde smiled.
He smiled with great confidence.
"Your Holiness, do you think I'm bluffing?"
"In terms of strength, I'm certainly no match for you. If you really killed me and something went wrong with your body three days later, who would you find to treat you?"
"You can watch and see for three days. You'll definitely fall ill within that time."
Seeing Cao Mengde make such a confident claim
reminded Bibi Dong.
That was right.
If she wanted to kill Cao Mengde, it would be as easy as turning over her hand. Why did she need to rush?
If what he said about massive bleeding was true, and the healing-type Soul Masters of Spirit Hall were helpless, she would still have to rely on Cao Mengde.
"Hmph..."
"I'll trust you this once. If my body remains perfectly fine for the next three days, I'll make sure you die a miserable death."
"Come back to Spirit Hall with me. I've prepared a secret chamber for you."
