Chapter 16: Yu Xiao Gang Assassinated Xu Xin!
Bibi Dong was startled, then killing intent flashed through her eyes...
At that moment, she wanted to kill that person from earlier.
He actually dared to harbor improper designs toward her. He deserved to die.
"No rush, Sister Dong'er. Since he has designs on you, he'll definitely show up again."
"When the time comes, we can catch him red-handed and deal with him."
Xu Xin spoke unhurriedly, completely unconcerned. He had already sent Ninja Soldiers to secretly follow that trash.
Once the man made any new moves, Xu Xin would know soon enough.
Xu Xin did not believe that Yu Xiao Gang, that piece of trash, was as good a person as he had been portrayed in the anime.
It was better to be cautious.
The versatile Ninja Soldiers were the best spies.
"That's true. Let him live a few more days first."
Bibi Dong spoke viciously. She was kind, but that did not mean she could not kill.
As the Holy Maiden, no matter how gentle she was, her hands had ultimately been stained with blood.
Bibi Dong would never show mercy to her enemies.
"Sister Dong'er, why haven't I seen the two seniors?"
Xu Xin asked curiously. Logically, those two should have stayed by Bibi Dong's side every step of the way.
Bibi Dong smiled beautifully. "Take a guess."
"Huh? No way. They didn't really go to that village, did they?"
Xu Xin immediately thought of it. Those two improper fellows really would do something like that.
"Correct."
"After we arrived, Ghost Elder became somewhat impatient to visit that village, so he asked me for leave afterward."
"So I let them go."
Bibi Dong chuckled softly and slowly explained.
"Ghost Elder? Dong'er, you're from Spirit Hall?" Liu Erlong was somewhat shocked and immediately began studying Bibi Dong curiously.
That bearing, that appearance... she really did seem somewhat like the legendary Holy Maiden.
Bibi Dong admitted it openly. "That's right. Erlong, which faction are you from?"
"I heard you say earlier that you were the Third Elder."
Bibi Dong stroked Xu Xin's head as she asked curiously.
"Sister Dong'er, we're from Shadow Hall!"
Xu Xin said. After this, Shadow Hall would appear before everyone.
"Shadow Hall? Is it some hidden faction? I've never heard of it."
Bibi Dong thought for a moment. This faction did not exist in her memories.
The only notable ones she knew were the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Clear Sky Sect, and Yu Xiao Gang's Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.
What was Shadow Hall?
"Sister Dong'er, you'll know in the future."
Xu Xin grinned. Soon.
"Alright."
"Enough of that. Come on, let's go shopping."
"Erlong, I saw a really pretty hairpin earlier."
"..."
Elsewhere, Yu Xiao Gang returned to his inn in anger.
This time, he had left after falling out with his father. He had not expected to hit a wall before he had even begun.
"Damn it, who exactly was that person?!"
He swept everything off the table in one furious motion.
His face was filled with rage.
"Someone!!!"
Yu Xiao Gang roared.
The hidden members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect quickly appeared before Yu Xiao Gang.
This man had been sent by his father, Yu Yuanzhen, to protect him. No matter what, he was still his son—how could Yu Yuanzhen possibly feel at ease letting him come out alone?
"Send someone to kill that brat from today. I want him dead!"
"How dare he ruin my plans!"
Yu Xiao Gang's eyes burned with fury. He had finally taken the initiative for once, yet he had lost so thoroughly.
How could I, Yu Xiao Gang, possibly fail? Impossible!
"Young Master, you have already left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect. I must return and seek the Sect Master's instructions regarding this matter."
The man before him respectfully reminded Yu Xiao Gang. His mission was only to protect Yu Xiao Gang; everything else was none of his concern.
Yu Xiao Gang hurled a cup away and roared, "Why aren't you going already?!"
The man retreated without expression.
"Damn it, damn it!"
"Even a servant dares to bully me. Just wait—when the day comes that I, Yu Xiao Gang, succeed, I'll make every one of you kneel before me!!"
He slammed his fist heavily into the wall. Blood seeped from his knuckles, but he could not feel the pain at all.
From the ceiling, a shadow witnessed everything. While that useless Xiao Gang was venting, it slipped into the darkness and vanished.
"Soon. As long as I remove every obstacle, the Holy Maiden will still be mine."
"Wait for me, Bibi Dong!!"
Staring out the window, Yu Xiao Gang spoke those words with vicious intensity...
A Ninja Soldier abruptly appeared before Xu Xin.
Bibi Dong, who was still shopping, jumped in fright.
Xu Xin quickly received the report, then sent the Ninja Soldier back out to monitor Yu Xiao Gang.
Killing intent appeared in Xu Xin's eyes. That useless Xiao Gang really was... tired of living.
"Sister Dong'er, that scholar from earlier has already sent someone to kill me."
Xu Xin spoke indifferently.
"Damn it, I'll go kill him right now!"
Bibi Dong flew into a rage. That man truly was no good.
He deserved to die!
"No rush. Since he dared provoke us, we can't let him die too easily."
Xu Xin said coldly.
"Fine. When the time comes, we'll catch a turtle in a jar and properly deal with him!"
Bibi Dong said sinisterly, her expression changing in an instant.
Seeing Bibi Dong like this, Xu Xin shuddered... Girls really could change their faces that quickly.
Liu Erlong was like this, and so was Bibi Dong...
Just thinking about it was terrifying...
Why were the girls he liked all like this? Sister A Yin was still the best.
"Little Xu Xin, was that person just now from your Shadow Hall?"
Bibi Dong asked, rubbing Xu Xin's head.
"More or less. He was sent to protect us."
Xu Xin did not tell the truth. Bibi Dong was not one of them yet, so there was no need to tell her everything.
It was better to keep a bit of mystery.
"What a mysterious person. He was almost like Ghost Elder."
Bibi Dong thought curiously. That person had actually been able to melt into the darkness, somewhat like Ghost Elder's ability.
But he seemed to be a little stronger than Ghost Elder.
"Erlong, can your strength really qualify you to be the Third Elder?"
Bibi Dong looked at Liu Erlong.
She seemed about as strong as Bibi Dong herself. Could she really be the Third Elder?
"Of course! I, Liu Erlong, am a genius. I even feel that being the Third Elder is beneath me."
Liu Erlong said smugly, without the slightest embarrassment.
Xu Xin was speechless. You were the one who asked me for the position of Third Elder, weren't you?
He did not expose her and simply let her keep showing off.
"If I joined you, could I become the Fourth Elder?"
Bibi Dong's question truly shocked Xu Xin.
This girl hadn't even become Pope yet, and she was already thinking about jumping ship?
If that were the case, wouldn't Qian Xunji have to move his plan forward?
In the original story, she had wanted to elope with that useless bastard. Now things were different... she no longer wanted to elope; she wanted to jump ship...
"Hehe... hehe, Sister Dong'er, I'd advise you not to entertain that thought."
"At least, not right now."
