Su Chen was somewhat baffled as he watched Bibi Dong radiate intense killing intent.
Granted, Yu Xiaogang was indeed utterly spineless and cowardly, but wasn't this mostly because you were blinded by love?
Otherwise, why would you say something like leaving Spirit Hall? Wait.
That was right. Even when Bibi Dong had practically become a complete lunatic by the end, she had never done anything ungrateful. How could she have said something like that when she was younger?
Su Chen realized something as well.

Yu Xiaogang could not possibly have mattered more than Spirit Hall, where she had grown up, or her mentor, classmates, and friends.
After a long while, Bibi Dong finally calmed down. A bone-deep hatred flashed through her wine-red eyes.
"At the time, we had just returned in crushing defeat from Sea God Island, and it was then that Yu Xiaogang said he wanted to marry me."
Perhaps because it had been the first crushing defeat of her life, she had suffered a tremendous blow. Thus, when her beloved took the initiative to ask for her hand, the young Bibi Dong had not thought much about it and agreed in wild delight.

What the hell?
So Yu Xiaogang
