Get Him
Su Cheng was somewhat surprised, not expecting Bibi Dong to bring up this matter on her own initiative, and he was unsure of her attitude.
After hesitating for a moment, he said ambiguously, "I remember, I think I said quite a lot back then."
Noticing the hesitation in his expression, Bibi Dong's face darkened slightly, and she said calmly, "So what are your thoughts now?"
"What aspect of your thinking?"
"Don't play dumb with me here, what else could it be?"
"..."
Hearing this, Su Cheng became even more puzzled.
After thinking for a moment, he observed the other person's expression and carefully chose his words before replying, using polite language. "I was indeed careless back then and went a bit too far. Don't worry, I will definitely be more careful in the future and will behave myself. I won't have any ulterior motives."
That's what he said, but Su Cheng certainly didn't really think that way.
This is nothing more than a delaying tactic.
He was just worried that if he scared Bibi Dong again, just like that day, and was kicked out again, it would be troublesome.
He is currently lacking in strength and needs to find a safe place to stay.
At present, the only places that can provide such an environment, besides Spirit City, are the core areas of the Star Dou Great Forest, where Ferocious Beast are teeming.
However, the isolated environment of the Star Dou Great Forest and the resulting delays in information gathering would hinder his intelligence gathering efforts, making it very inconvenient.
Moreover, his next goal is to deal with the Rakshasa God.
If they leave Bibi Dong, the chosen successor to the Rakshasa God, how can they let her discover their movements, and how can they enter the Rakshasa Secret Realm?
Su Cheng's plan was to use the sense of closeness that the Spirit Core brought to Bibi Dong's subconscious to spend a year and a half with her and deepen their relationship.
When the time is right, we should openly and honestly join forces with her to deal with the Rakshasa God, and ideally, we can use her to enter the Rakshasa Secret Realm.
Su Cheng didn't want to wait until Bibi Dong inherited the divine position before closing the net.
Her progress in the divine examination was too slow.
If we wait until that time to deal with the Rakshasa God, it will be too late.
Su Cheng himself still needs time to further improve his cultivation, at least to break through the bottleneck and reach the level of First-Level God. Otherwise, if the Asura God were to descend and personally wield the Asura Demon Sword, even if suppressed by the Cosmic Rules, he would probably not be his match.
To improve his strength, he needs to unleash the Asura Demon Sword; otherwise, in his current state, he has no way to cultivate.
However, Bibi Dong clearly interpreted Su Cheng's words in a different way.
Her gaze turned cold, and she said indifferently, "You seem quite casual about matters of the heart."
"Hmm?" Su Cheng was taken aback upon hearing this, keenly sensing that something seemed amiss.
Bibi Dong's tone and attitude were not quite what he had imagined.
But before he could offer any explanation, Bibi Dong spoke again, asking, "Who have you been with these past few years?"
"I wasn't with anyone, it was all by myself," Su Cheng answered instinctively.
Because he always keeps the Three-Eyed Golden Lion by his side, Su Cheng is always very careful to observe his surroundings and basically blocks out his senses when he goes out.
Therefore, no matter how powerful the Spirit Hall's intelligence network is, it is impossible for them to detect his movements.
"..."
Seeing him lying without batting an eye, Bibi Dong fell silent.
After scrutinizing him for a moment, Bibi Dong turned and walked out of the Council Hall toward her private room where she worked and lived alone.
"Come with me," she said calmly.
Su Cheng never imagined that the Rakshasa God would use Bibi Dong's hand to eliminate him through a divine test.
It wasn't because of the order of the Nine God Trials. The trials of Godhood Inheritance were highly subjective, a point Su Cheng had analyzed long ago.
The key point is that, in Su Cheng's view, when he easily "killed" the Slaughter King in the Slaughter City that day, the cultivation level he displayed was definitely above that of Limit Douluo, which is undoubtedly a realm that Bibi Dong can hardly match now.
Moreover, the Asura Power has a strong restraining effect on the Rakshasa Power.
Even if Rakshasa God didn't care about Bibi Dong's successor, she wouldn't assign her a mission that meant certain death.
Moreover, judging from the images fed back by the Trajectory Demon Eye, when I encountered them, it was Rakshasa God and Nine-Headed Bat King who came to my door together.
The dark and filthy environment depicted in the background is consistent with the characteristics of Rakshasa Divine Power, so the location should be in the Rakshasa Secret Realm.
This was not unexpected.
After all, descending directly to the mortal realm requires the permission of the God Realm Committee. It's impossible for the Rakshasa God to be allowed to personally descend to the mortal realm to cause trouble for the successor of the Asura God.
In contrast, staying in the alternate dimension of the Land of Inheritance does not violate the rules of the Divine Realm.
As long as the scale of the battle is controlled, the battle can be easily resolved without damaging the Rakshasa Secret Realm.
Ultimately, in the eyes of the Rakshasa God, Su Cheng was just a mere mortal.
Even with some Asura Power, her strength is still far from enough compared to her, a God-level being.
The only information Su Cheng didn't know was the exact time of the battle and how he himself entered the Rakshasa Secret Realm.
"Tap, tap, tap..."
In the unattended corridor of the Pope's Palace, the master and disciple walked silently, with only Bibi Dong's footsteps echoing for Jiujiu.
As Su Cheng gazed at the slender figure ahead, a thought crossed his mind. He couldn't understand why, in just one day, the other party's attitude had suddenly become so subtle.
Compared to Su Cheng, Bibi Dong's emotions were much more complex.
She felt her heart stiffen and sink little by little, then be covered with frost and freeze into ice.
Disappointment, hatred...
He didn't tell a single truth, and he didn't trust his teacher at all...
He could take that woman into the Slaughter City an adventure, to receive the divine test and inheritance.
But when faced with me, he spouts nothing but lies, offering only a few withered branches and rotten leaves as a perfunctory excuse.
At that moment, Bibi Dong inexplicably thought of her younger self.
Perhaps the fault does not lie with Su Cheng.
He was just young and naive, and was deceived.
That woman was indeed very beautiful, with a dignified demeanor and gentle manners.
It's normal for a young man to be attracted to someone, but unfortunately, he didn't know the woman's true identity...
From a perspective that Su Cheng cannot see.
A faint purple mist had appeared on Bibi Dong's pale, dull face, and the dark green light in her eyes flickered intermittently...
Three years ago, Su Cheng was right; she had indeed been very lonely all these years.
She's had enough of losing.
In the lavishly decorated room, Bibi Dong walked to the huge square table and picked up the file on top.
Without turning around, she simply raised her hand and handed it to Su Cheng behind her, saying in a low voice, "Do you know this person?"
Su Cheng reached out and took a look, then his pupils contracted slightly, and he was startled.
The date marked on the document is twenty years ago.
Even though it's just a static portrait, the woman in it is still exquisitely beautiful and captivating, undoubtedly a peerless beauty.
This woman was none other than Ah Yin.
Bibi Dong took a deep breath, then turned around. The purple and green light that had appeared on her cheeks and in her eyes had disappeared.
She looked calmly at Su Cheng and said in a deep voice, "What is your relationship with her?"
"..."
Su Cheng opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
If Ah Yin weren't here right now, it wouldn't matter, but the person in question is currently hidden within his Martial Soul. Saying something like "it's okay" would be too scumbag.
Even with his thick skin, he simply couldn't bring himself to say it.
Moreover, he still doesn't understand how Bibi Dong discovered this matter.
But since the other party was able to produce this information and ask the above questions so decisively, they obviously possessed some intelligence clues that he was unaware of.
I just regret that I can't use the Trajectory Demon Eye right now...
"You and she got together?"
"This..."
"..." Bibi Dong, who had been watching Su Cheng's expression closely, finally lost all hope.
But at this point, her voice became even calmer, "How far have things progressed for you? Where is she now?"
"..."
"Su Cheng, break off all ties with her immediately!" Bibi Dong's voice suddenly became much sharper. She snatched the documents from Su Cheng's hand and said sternly, "I'll tell you who she is! She is a transformed Soul Beast, a 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor, Tang Hao's wife, Tang San's mother, and a great enemy of my Spirit Hall!"
Actually, Bibi Dong didn't have a deep impression of Ah Yin.
If it weren't for the faint sense of familiarity brought by Ah Yin's strange temperament and hair color after seeing that scene yesterday, she would never have remembered that there was such a person.
The manhunt was led by Qian Xunji, and no ordinary person could have imagined that Soul Beast that had died and turned into Soul Ring could be resurrected.
Bibi Dong spent a whole day and night searching for information, and with the corroboration of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, she finally confirmed Ah Yin's identity.
"Teacher, please calm down. She is not an enemy."
"Not an enemy?! Are you kidding me?!" Bibi Dong's emotions suddenly intensified, her fingers trembling slightly. "You'd rather believe the nonsense of a Soul Beast than deceive and disobey your teacher?!"
At this moment, she took a deep breath, her voice becoming solemn, "Fine, why don't you explain it to me and give me all your reasons? What's the deal with that Soul Beast? How did you all get involved in such a short time? This Soul Beast sacrificed itself for Tang Hao back then, and Tang Hao's 100,000 Year Spirit Ring came from this Soul Beast."
"..."
Su Cheng felt a cold sweat break out on his brow.
Explain?
How is he supposed to explain that?
The factors and reasons involved are too complex; a single change can have far-reaching consequences.
If he were still in his prime, that would be fine.
Given his current situation, he wouldn't dare to spout nonsense.
Moreover, Bibi Dong's condition was clearly very wrong.
Su Cheng had begun to understand what was really going on, and since that was the case, he couldn't tell the truth anymore.
"... Don't you want to tell me? Or are you thinking about how to make up a story to deceive me?" Bibi Dong felt a pang of pain in her heart. "It was just a Soul Beast!"
A jumble of emotions filled my heart.
Unbeknownst to her, a faint purple hue seemed to have settled over her eyes, and her mind became increasingly confused.
"Those who betray the Spirit Hall deserve only death!" Bibi Dong said coldly.
As she spoke, a layer of purplish-black light swirled around her fingertips, and a dense aura of death emanated from them.
Seeing this, Ah Yin, who was hidden inside Su Cheng's body, was about to come out to help him out, but he stopped her, saying, "No, if you show yourself, it will only provoke her. In our current state, we are no match for her. If we make a big fuss and attract other members of the Spirit Hall, it will be even more troublesome."
Moreover, compared to the many powerful figures in Spirit City, the gods who can observe the movements of the lower realm are the greatest hidden danger.
"Don't worry, she won't really kill me. She's just not quite lucid right now. I can sense the fluctuations of Rakshasa God's Will."
He doesn't need to actively perceive anything.
The chaotic and evil aura emanating from Bibi Dong was far too obvious, unlike anything she had ever experienced before.
The next moment, sharp fingertips suddenly gripped Su Cheng's neck, and a thick, purplish-black mist surrounded his entire body.
Su Cheng could feel the fingers around his neck trembling slightly.
Although his aura was sharp, his fingers and palms were weak and powerless, and his violent killing intent was an empty shell, merely a facade and extremely fake.
Even in the face of such murderous intent, his body, which possessed extraordinary fighting instincts and True Power, showed no interest in resisting.
"..."
Looking at Su Cheng, who appeared calm and composed, Bibi Dong's breasts heaved violently.
She couldn't bring herself to do it.
Even if the other party had truly betrayed the Spirit Hall, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
At this moment, her deepest instincts were screaming frantically to stop her.
The subtle feelings that had been brewing over the years were also growing wildly and silently.
"... Su Cheng... you're such a bastard!"
Bibi Dong gritted her teeth and whispered.
It must be admitted that she was simply unable to kill Su Cheng, the "successor of the Asura God," as the divine examination required.
What to do...
What should I do...?
At that moment, a thought suddenly emerged, then spread rapidly, and in the blink of an eye occupied her entire mind.
Since we can't kill him, and we can't tolerate him getting involved with that Soul Beast, then we'll get him!
With himself, would he still care about a mere Soul Beast?
As for the Rakshasa God Test... it doesn't matter.
Gradually, the murderous Evil Thought brought about by the Rakshasa Power transformed into another kind of intense desire.
"..."
Opposite her, Su Cheng, whose neck was being choked, stared at the dark purple light that kept flashing in Bibi Dong's eyes, and thought to himself, "Just as I thought."
That vile Rakshasa God actually used this method to deal with me, completely disregarding the life or death of Bibi Dong, her successor.
He did indeed intend to use the Asura Demon Sword and his identity as the inheritor of the Asura God to his advantage, and he planned to use this to lure people in, but he did not want to hurt Bibi Dong because of it, nor did he want to be forced by her.
But it seems that there are no other options given the current situation.
Although the process was a bit embarrassing, judging by the outcome, it was probably only a matter of time. Besides, it's not impossible to turn the tables...
