BiBi Dong: "Child, Don't Be Afraid..."

She wore a luxurious robe embroidered with gold patterns, the Nine Curves Purple Gold Crown on her head, and held a scepter nearly two meters long, inlaid with countless gems. She had a tall figure, straight legs, fair skin, and an almost perfect face. All of it made her seem so utterly extraordinary.

Especially that invisible nobility and sanctity emanating from her made people unable to help feeling the urge to prostrate themselves in worship.

The pope before him was astonishingly beautiful, noble, elegant, serene; it seemed every lovely word could be applied to this woman.

The moment Mo Bai saw BiBi Dong, he lost focus for an instant.

Even though he had seen countless beauties in his previous life, Mo Bai had never seen a woman like BiBi Dong, whose bearing and beauty had both reached the absolute peak.

I want this woman!

For some reason, as he looked at BiBi Dong before him, there was only this one voice in Mo Bai's heart.

He wanted to conquer this woman.

Before this, after being reborn into this world, aside from wanting to become stronger and prove that the Blue Silver Grass spirit could be used as hidden weapons, Mo Bai basically had no other goals.

But now, Mo Bai found that he did. The woman before him, whose status was frighteningly noble, was his goal.

Damn, just thinking about it was kind of thrilling. The pope of Spirit Hall, that status... I, Mo Bai, wasn't aiming for some easy life!

"Child, there's no need to be afraid. This is Spirit Hall, and I am the pope of Spirit Hall. I'm not some man-eating she-devil!"

BiBi Dong looked at Mo Bai, who was standing there in a daze and staring at her, and thought he had merely been frightened by her aura, so she smiled kindly at him.

Child...

Hearing how BiBi Dong addressed him, Mo Bai's expression instantly stiffened.

Fuck, did you nurse me or something? You actually called me child!

He had just been thinking about conquering her, and she immediately hit him with "child." Mo Bai really couldn't take it. That turn had come way too sharply.

"Hello, Pope Sister. I'm not afraid!"

However, BiBi Dong's words also made him quickly gather his wits, and he hurriedly spoke to BiBi Dong.

Step one to conquering the pope: first, let's pull the seniority down a notch.

"Nonsense. You should call her Pope Your Majesty..."

The deacon beside Mo Bai immediately changed expression when he heard how Mo Bai addressed BiBi Dong, and he rebuked Mo Bai in panic.

He was terrified that Mo Bai's disrespect toward the pope would implicate him.

"It's fine. You may leave first and wait outside!"

But BiBi Dong raised her hand and stopped the deacon, then told him to go outside and wait.

"...Yes, Pope Your Majesty!"

The deacon hurriedly answered, then bent at the waist, lowered his head, turned around, and left.

Before leaving, he did not forget to glare at Mo Bai out of the corner of his eye, signaling for Mo Bai to watch himself and not act recklessly.

Damn it, he had clearly warned him before they came.

"...Um... Pope Sister, did I say something wrong?"

Mo Bai now had a little fear on his face, and he looked at BiBi Dong somewhat stammeringly.

"No. But you cannot call me sister, understand?"

BiBi Dong looked at Mo Bai's appearance and smiled softly. Mo Bai's form of address felt very novel to her, and also made her very happy. It had been a long time since anyone had addressed her so intimately.

Of course, the main reason was that BiBi Dong regarded Mo Bai as a child and would not think too much of it. If someone a little older dared to call her that, then it would be different.

"Then... then what should I call you?"

Mo Bai nodded obediently.

"What should you call me..."

BiBi Dong smiled and thought for a moment, then looked at Mo Bai and said, "If you're willing, then call me teacher!"

For a child with talent like Mo Bai's, she naturally intended to win him over.

She had just accepted Hu Liena as a disciple, and originally had not thought about taking another disciple. But Mo Bai's way of addressing her just now had greatly increased her favorable impression of him for a moment, so she decided to accept one more disciple.

Gifted beyond ordinary measure, Twin Spirits—with such talent, he was more than qualified to be her disciple!

Teacher?

Hearing BiBi Dong's words, Mo Bai's heart shook.

If this had been before, he would have been extremely happy to hear BiBi Dong say something like this.

But now, he regarded BiBi Dong as his target. If they added a teacher-student relationship on top of that... he could absolutely accept it.

He just did not know whether it would increase the difficulty of conquering her.

"What? You're unwilling to call me teacher?"

BiBi Dong did not know what Mo Bai was thinking deep down. Otherwise, she would definitely have slapped Mo Bai to death.

She thought Mo Bai had not understood that she wanted to accept him as her disciple. If he could not even understand this, then she felt she might as well forget it.

Good talent was certainly important, but his brain could not be stupid either!

"I'm willing. Of course I'm willing!"

"Mo Bai greets teacher!"

Hearing BiBi Dong's words, Mo Bai immediately judged that taking BiBi Dong as his teacher was what benefited him most, and he hurriedly replied.

Only by becoming BiBi Dong's disciple would he have more chances to come into contact with her.

If he gave it up, then with BiBi Dong's status, he basically would have no chance to come into contact with BiBi Dong at all, let alone conquer her.

"Mm. You're not too stupid after all!"

Only then did BiBi Dong smile and nod.

With her agreement, she had formally acknowledged Mo Bai as her disciple.

"Release your two spirits and let teacher take a look!"

After that, BiBi Dong spoke directly, telling Mo Bai to release his Twin Spirits.

"..."

Mo Bai was speechless. He had been misunderstood again. What was the connection between teacher and Grandmaster? How did she conclude that Grandmaster's theory must be correct?

"Teacher, I don't have Twin Spirits. I only have the Blue Silver Grass spirit!"

Mo Bai then shook his head and answered BiBi Dong.

"What?"

Hearing Mo Bai's answer, BiBi Dong's expression clearly froze as well.

BiBi Dong trusted Grandmaster's theory very much, so she had never imagined that Mo Bai was actually not a Twin Spirits holder.

"...Release your spirit and let me see!"

BiBi Dong had no choice but to change her words.

"Yes, teacher!"

Mo Bai nodded, then summoned his Blue Silver Grass spirit in front of BiBi Dong.

BiBi Dong carefully examined Mo Bai's spirit and found that although Mo Bai's Blue Silver Grass had undergone some changes, it was indeed ordinary Blue Silver Grass.

"This is impossible!"

BiBi Dong still found it hard to believe in her heart.

"Don't resist!"

Afterward, BiBi Dong directly stepped forward and grabbed Mo Bai's right hand. While injecting Soul Power into Mo Bai's body to investigate the situation, she gave Mo Bai an order.

She believed Mo Bai would not dare lie to her, but she still wanted to personally verify whether Mo Bai truly had only one spirit, or whether he had another one that had yet to awaken.
