"But if I really am to ask for resources, I heard there's a Soul Tool called the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud in the Heaven Dou Royal Family's treasury. I'd like to have it brought over for research. I'll have to trouble the Fifth Elder with it."

"Ha ha, easily done."

Light Feather Douluo waved a hand, indicating that it was nothing major.

With everything that needed to be said having been said, Qian Daoliu had no desire to remain in Pope's Hall and keep looking at Bibi Dong's cold expression. He left directly with Light Feather Douluo.

In the Sea of Consciousness, Ah Yin felt a trace of warmth as she watched Ye Kai refrain from mentioning the Soul Spirit matter in front of Qian Daoliu.

Bibi Dong, who had been staring fixedly at Ye Kai ever since Qian Daoliu left, suddenly spoke.

"Go on. What else have you done?"

"Teacher, actually, I..."

"Xiao Kai hid a woman on his body!"

Ye Kai stared wide-eyed at Hu Liena, who was fanning the flames from the side.

Hu Liena, you set me up!

What do you mean, I hid a woman?

Hu Liena merely snorted and turned away, refusing to look at Ye Kai.

You bullied this lady so badly last night. I have to get my revenge today. If I can't do it myself, then Teacher will do it for me.

"Oh? Xiao Kai, is there something you'd like to explain?"

Bibi Dong rose from the Pope's throne, where she had been sitting steadily, and walked toward Ye Kai step by step.

Though the expression on that breathtakingly beautiful face remained calm, Ye Kai could still sense the towering fury emanating from Pope Teacher.

"Teacher, this really can be explained."

"Go ahead. Teacher is listening."

Suddenly, Ah Yin appeared in front of Ye Kai.

"Hm?"

At the sight of Ah Yin dressed entirely in blue, Bibi Dong's outwardly calm expression instantly turned icy.

"Weren't you dead?"

Bibi Dong had also read Spirit Hall's intelligence reports back then. They contained crystal-clear descriptions of Tang Hao and Ah Yin's whereabouts, clothing, and appearances.

Moreover, she could sense the aura emanating from Ah Yin. There was no mistaking it.

"Ahem, Teacher, this is what happened."

Seeing that Ah Yin had drawn Bibi Dong's attention, Ye Kai quickly explained the matter of the Soul Spirit Contract.

"You inherited the legacy of some powerful expert?"

Bibi Dong frowned.

Judging from Ye Kai's description, this Soul Spirit was indeed powerful and useful.

But the thought of her own disciple becoming entangled with a woman—no, a female Soul Beast—still made Bibi Dong very angry.

Glancing at Hu Liena's lips, which had yet to fully lose their swelling, Bibi Dong also understood that something must have happened last night.

Another wicked disciple!

Oh, right. And that unfilial daughter too.

Bibi Dong thought of Qian Renxue, who was far away in Heaven Dou City, then looked again at Ah Yin before the Secret Chamber from those years suddenly flashed through her mind.

What if I lock Xiao Kai inside too?

Then Xiao Kai will belong to me alone from then on.

The moment that thought surfaced, Bibi Dong dismissed it.

Bibi Dong, you're his teacher. How can you think something like that?

At that moment, another voice rang out in Bibi Dong's mind.

"Because that is your truest inner desire~

I merely helped you remove the cover concealing it.

Look at you now—you're becoming more and more like your teacher. You truly are master and disciple, hehehehe~"

"Shut up!"

"Hehe, oh my, I suddenly thought of a very interesting God Test. I'm sure you'll like it."

Rakshasa's malicious smile made Bibi Dong increasingly irritated.

Yet those suggestive words sent a chill through her heart.

"What are you trying to do? I'd rather give up the God Test than hurt Xiao Kai."

"Hurt him? No, no, no. How could that be called hurting him? But it isn't time yet. After all, even gods fear certain Harmony Beasts."

After saying that, the Rakshasa Divine Thought vanished from the Sea of Consciousness.

The negative emotions in Bibi Dong's heart were growing increasingly numerous, nearly beyond her control.

Ye Kai sensed the negative aura around his Pope Teacher growing denser and immediately activated the Purification Domain.

"Phew~"

Seeing his Pope Teacher, whose eyes had begun to gleam green, gradually calm down, Ye Kai let out a sigh of relief.

But even though he was now over level 20, he still could not hold on much longer. He remained unable to heal the invaded Sea of Consciousness.

At the same time, Ye Kai discovered that the corrosion was growing more severe.

"Teacher, how about I still..."

"Enough. I already told you about this matter back then. The current situation is still under control. There's no need to worry."

You call that under control?

Good grief, that look like you were about to eat me just now counted as being under control?

Of course, Ye Kai did not know that Bibi Dong's obsession had already changed from her original intent to destroy everything into Secret Chamber 2.0.

"For now, don't spread word of this Soul Spirit matter. You haven't been contracted with a Soul Spirit for long, and this is a matter of great importance, so we should observe it a while longer.

"If we confirm that there truly are no problems after a few years, then if we encounter suitable Soul Beasts, we can first get Soul Spirits for Nana and the others."

Bibi Dong made the final decision.

"There's one more thing, Teacher. I want to make a deal with you for these three Soul Bones."

Ye Kai took out the equipment that had dropped from Tang Hao—ptui, the Soul Bones.

"Oh? Let's hear it."

Bibi Dong was somewhat surprised. None of Tang Hao's Soul Bones were ordinary, yet her disciple did not want them?

"These three Soul Bones don't suit my attributes very well. But I remember that Spirit Hall has a sixty-thousand-year spiritual-attribute skull bone. I want to exchange these three Soul Bones for that one and give it to Senior Sister Hu Liena."

In truth, Ye Kai did not think much of Tang Hao's Soul Bones.

Although their ages were not low, Ye Kai was still somewhat dissatisfied.

Since he planned to establish the Spirit Pagoda, he would inevitably have dealings with the Ferocious Beasts of the Core Region in the future. They surely had higher-grade Soul Bones there.

So rather than let these three Soul Bones gather dust in his Soul Tool, he might as well use them in an exchange of benefits.

It would be better to trade for the Spirit Gathering Wisdom Skull for Fox Senior Sister and help improve her strength.

"Xiao Kai..."

Hu Liena looked at Ye Kai in shock upon hearing this.

Though he was doing it for her sake, trading three for one was far too much of a loss.

"Have you thought this through?"

Bibi Dong felt a little irritated. This brat—why didn't he treat his teacher this well?

"Yes, Teacher."

"Mm... fine. I'll notify Nana to come collect the Soul Bone later."

After pondering for a moment, Bibi Dong agreed to Ye Kai's request.

With three high-quality Soul Bones added to the coffers, the people in the Hall of Elders would have nothing to say.

"Alright, you may leave."

After taking a deep look at Ah Yin, Bibi Dong waved her hand and dismissed Ye Kai and the others.

"Yes." *2

After having Ah Yin return to the Sea of Consciousness, Ye Kai and Hu Liena left the Pope's Hall.

"Xiao Kai, why did you do that?"

As soon as they walked out of the Pope's Hall, Hu Liena questioned Ye Kai.

"Though you say you're a Healing Soul Master, your physical condition has always been quite good. Even if you couldn't absorb those Soul Bones, you could still use them to enhance your combat strength."

Looking at his senior sister standing before him with her hands on her hips, visibly upset, Ye Kai smiled.

"Don't worry, Senior Sister. I have my own plans. I truly don't think much of those three Soul Bones, so I might as well trade them for one you can use."

"That's still far too much of a loss!"

Although Hu Liena had not accepted them yet, she knew that three Soul Bones from a Titled Douluo could not possibly be worth less than a single sixty-thousand-year Soul Bone.

"Whether they're used as rewards to win people over or kept for personal use, they'll help increase Teacher's strength. When that happens, won't the two of us rise along with the tide? Most importantly, I want to help Senior Sister improve her strength."

Hearing Ye Kai say that, Hu Liena was deeply moved. She wrapped her arms around Ye Kai's neck, and the two leaned against each other.
