Persuasion and Refusal
"Xiao Yuan, why are you so good to your teacher?" Bibi Dong looked at Lu Yuan with her beautiful eyes and asked softly.
"Because you are my teacher. In my heart, you are just as important as Xue'er, Senior Sister, and Zhu Qing." Meeting Bibi Dong's gaze, Lu Yuan said softly.
"Xiao Yuan!" Bibi Dong knew from the sincerity in Lu Yuan's eyes that what her disciple said was true, and she couldn't help but feel gratified. Her disciple was truly filial.
Come to think of it, no one in her life has ever treated her so well.
Qian Xunji was a beast in human clothing. He actually forced himself on his disciple and killed him while he was seriously injured, even devouring his soul. It was only in this way that she was able to enter the Rakshasa Secret Realm and obtain the Rakshasa Inheritance.
Yu Xiaogang?
The love between her and Yu Xiaogang was basically a one-sided effort on her part; what did Yu Xiaogang ever give her in return?
When they were together, all they talked about was theory. He was most interested in theory. When he was in the Spirit Hall, his favorite place to go was the Spirit Hall Library to borrow materials. How much time did he actually spend caring about her?
Not to mention giving her any gifts.
But her disciple was different. He not only gave her a priceless treasure like External Soul Bone, but he was also willing to give her Godhood Inheritance.
The Godhood Inheritance —what a precious thing! Her own disciple had entrusted it to her without hesitation. This stirred up a storm in Bibi Dong's heart, and she couldn't calm down for Jiujiu.
Unconsciously, Lu Yuan's status in Bibi Dong's heart rose to a new level.
Gently raising her jade-like hand, Bibi Dong softly stroked Lu Yuan's face, her eyes filled with deep affection.
"Teacher, please accept it!" Lu Yuan grabbed Bibi Dong's hand and placed the Heart of the Sea God in her palm.
Looking at the Heart of the Sea God shimmering with a brilliant blue light in her hand, Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes sparkled. She didn't care that Lu Yuan was holding her hand; what she cared about was Lu Yuan's concern for her.
This was a level of care she rarely received.
The Heart of the Sea God radiates a gentle light, seemingly capable of cleansing the soul.
Bibi Dong felt that the light was so dazzling that it seemed to purify even her corrupted soul, which had been eroded by the Rakshasa Power.
She sighed softly, and then, to Lu Yuan 'Lu Yuan astonishment, she grabbed his hand and placed the Heart of the Sea God Lu Yuan into his grasp.
"Teacher, what are you doing?" Looking at Bibi Dong's actions, Lu Yuan was puzzled. The position of Sea God was clearly better than the Rakshasa Godhood, so why did Bibi Dong refuse?
"Xiao Yuan, you should keep the Heart of the Sea God for yourself. Even if you don't need it, you can give it to Nana or Zhu Qing. Giving it to your teacher would be a waste. Your teacher already has the inheritance of the Rakshasa God and has completed the sixth test. Now I am undergoing the Seventh Trial. Your teacher has worked hard for nearly ten years. If I give up now, wouldn't all my hard work over the past ten years be in vain?"
Bibi Dong smiled gently and said, "Moreover, Rakshasa God is also First-Class God. If Teacher takes the Heart of the Sea God, he will definitely lose the Rakshasa Godhood, which would be a pity. If you pass on the Sea God's inheritance to Nana or Zhu Qing, wouldn't you gain another god position? That would be more cost-effective."
"Teacher, that's not how you do it. Although you are currently undergoing the Rakshasa's Seventh Trial, it doesn't necessarily mean that undergoing the Sea God Nine Trials will take more time. As long as the Rakshasa Inheritance is gone, your strength can instantly return to the level of Ultimate Douluo."
"If Ultimate Douluo accepts the Nine Trials, he can be exempted from the first six trials. The first six trials are simply an assessment of the examinee's basic strength, and Ultimate Douluo undoubtedly already possesses sufficient strength. Therefore, once you accept the Sea God Trial, you will start from the Seventh Trial, which will not be much slower than when you accepted the Rakshasa Inheritance."
Lu Yuan spoke earnestly and patiently.
"Xiao Yuan, how do you know so much about the divine trials? You haven't even undergone the nine trials of the gods. In my opinion, the Holy Sword Imprint on your forehead shouldn't belong to the nine trials of inheritance. The Angel Nine Trials should be Xue'er's, right? Besides, even if you are the inheritor of the gods, you shouldn't know so much about the divine trials, should you?"
Bibi Dong was puzzled. How did Xiao Yuan know that Ultimate Douluo could be exempted from the first six trials by participating in the Nine Trials?
Could it be related to his secret again?
Bibi Dong couldn't help but think, recalling that she had some understanding of Lu Yuan's deities.
"Teacher, don't worry about how I know this, but it's the truth. If you accept the Sea God's test, your speed might not be much slower than that of the Rakshasa God. I'm sure that if you accept the Sea God Nine Trials, you can become a god within ten years at the latest. If you continue with the Rakshasa God Trial, your speed might not be much faster either. To become a god, you'll also need about ten years."
"Furthermore, the Rakshasa God Trial are extremely painful, and the Rakshasa God is also a god of evil. If you continue like this, I am worried about you."
"What are you worried about?" Bibi Dong asked.
"I'm worried that your heart will be completely corrupted by the Rakshasa God, and you will fall into madness. Teacher, I don't want to see you become like that one day." Thinking of Bibi Dong, who almost went mad at the end of the original work, Lu Yuan's heart clenched. He really didn't want to see Bibi Dong fall to such a state one day.
He hoped that Bibi Dong would be different from the original character and have a happy ending.
"Xiao Yuan!" Bibi Dong sighed softly, but still insisted on her own ideas. She was very touched by Lu Yuan's concern for her, but she also had her own thoughts and knots in her heart.
She could not find relief until the knot in her heart was untied. Ever since that incident, that nightmare had haunted her and could not be shaken off.
Moreover, the Sea God is also a deity containing the Light Power. Could the darkness in my heart really accept the position of the Sea God?
Moreover, his two Martial Soul are not worthy of the position of Sea God.
Death Spider Emperor, Soul-Devouring Pearl Emperor, what Evil God Martial Soul they are! I was born only to inherit the evil divine positions of Rakshasa God.
Thinking of this, a self-deprecating smile flashed across Bibi Dong's face.
"Take it back!" Bibi Dong pushed the Heart of the Sea God, which she had stuffed into Lu Yuan's hand, back along with his palm.
"Teacher?" Looking at Bibi Dong's actions, Lu Yuan was really puzzled. He had already gone to such lengths, but Bibi Dong still chose to refuse.
Lu Yuan opened his mouth as if to say something, but was interrupted by Bibi Dong.
"Don't try to persuade me anymore. My mind is made up and I won't change it." Bibi Dong's tone was gentle, but full of determination.
