In response to Bibi Dong's question, Yu Xiaogang looked at the beautiful face so close to his, smelled the familiar fragrance carried by the night breeze, and smiled as he smoothed his hair, which had been ruffled by the wind.

"Dong'er, what are you worried about? Do you think I'd forget you whenever I have something good? Even if I forget the whole world, I'll never forget you."

Bibi Dong was quite pleased with these cheesy pickup lines; sometimes the simplest expressions are the most touching. Bibi Dong lightly punched Yu Xiaogang's chest and chuckled, scolding him:

"Honestly, after all these years you're still so glib! I really don't know what I saw in you back then."

Bibi Dong paused here, her eyes misty and hazy, and reached out to stroke Yu Xiaogang's drastically changed handsome face before continuing:

"But Xiaogang, I've found myself liking you even more!"

Yu Xiaogang wrapped his arm around Bibi Dong's slender waist, instantly closing the distance between them. Though their hearts were separated by a layer of fabric, he could clearly hear Bibi Dong's rapid heartbeat. His eyes, filled with tenderness, fixed on Bibi Dong's slightly dazed and unfocused gaze, and he said:

"Dong'er, are you a visual creature too? You only judge me by my appearance, why don't you go to my bedroom and understand my inner world?"

Bibi Dong rolled her eyes at Yu Xiaogang, who was holding her, gave him a light kiss, and then slapped away the large hand that was playing tricks on her lower back. She left Yu Xiaogang's warm embrace, pulled him to the dining table, and said, "Xiaogang, you still haven't had any plastic surgery! I really don't know which one is the real you. More than ten years ago, you were full of melancholy and had a scholarly air about you. Now that we've met again, you've completely changed. Today, you're so good that even a little bit of the old you has disappeared. But I still like the current Xiaogang more! You weren't so smooth-talking and charming to girls before."

As Bibi Dong spoke, she began to put food into Yu Xiaogang's bowl, then smiled and rested her chin on her hands, saying to the somewhat dazed Yu Xiaogang:

"What are you waiting for? Eat up! I asked Little Ball and Thor to make these dishes, and they're my first time cooking, so they might not taste that great."

"Oh? Since you cooked this yourself, Dong'er, I must try it! I believe Dong'er will do your best in everything you do!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang snapped out of his daze and praised her with a happy expression, saying, "As expected, women's sixth sense is really strong. She transmigrated and directly replaced the original Yu Xiaogang. The two souls are definitely different. Fortunately, Bibi Dong didn't learn the current Longevity Art back then."

At that time, Bibi Dong was just an ordinary Soul Douluo and had not yet learned the ability to sense soul aura. Otherwise, she would have already exposed the fact that Yu Xiaogang's original soul was shattered by her. After all, everyone's soul aura is unique and basically impossible to fake.

Yu Xiaogang picked up the overflowing food in the bowl and took a bite. He said, "You know, it's not bad at all. It's already quite good that Bibi Dong can make such delicious food on her first time cooking. And with Little Ball and Thor helping out, there shouldn't be any problems."

At this moment, Thor confided in him through a soul link, saying in the Sea of Consciousness:

"Xiaogang, next time you'll have someone else cook! Today, Little Ball and I took the blame for you. In the end, it was the two of us who helped out so you could have this delicious meal. Bibi Dong has absolutely no talent for cooking."

Thor poured out his grievances to Yu Xiaogang, and after finishing, he left a crying emoji in Yu Xiaogang's Sea of Consciousness. He also showed Yu Xiaogang a video of what happened in the kitchen that afternoon when Yu Xiaogang was in seclusion cultivating the Six Treasures Immortal Thief.

He was currently multitasking, spending time with Bibi Dong outside while comforting Thor in the Sea of Consciousness. He found Bibi Dong's flustered state in the video quite cute, a side of Bibi Dong he rarely saw. However, he almost gave himself away when Thor shared his impressions of the afternoon's food tasting with him.

Can you imagine what it feels like to have all sorts of bizarre and extreme flavors explode in your mouth? Yu Xiaogang finally found out today, but he felt that Thor deliberately synchronized his meal with his own, intending to get revenge on Yu Xiaogang.

Fortunately, the two gourmands, Little Ball and Thor, helped him fight a preliminary battle; otherwise, Yu Xiaogang would have suffered today.

Seeing that he was enjoying his meal satisfied Bibi Dong's vanity, and she said to Yu Xiaogang with a happy and excited expression, "Xiaogang, let me cook dinner from now on! I feel that my cooking skills have improved a lot after today's practice!"

Yu Xiaogang, without changing his expression, twitched slightly and stood facing the jubilant Bibi Dong, saying:

"Dong'er, you've been managing the affairs of the Dragon Gate Sect and Notting City for me all day long, so you can leave the cooking to me. Besides, I've already broken through the bottleneck, and I don't know when I'll reach the end of my cultivation next time! How about we take the disciples on a picnic sometime to relax? After all, cultivation needs to be balanced."

Yu Xiaogang immediately dismissed Bibi Dong's dangerous idea, fearing he might have been too obvious, so he quickly changed the subject, using Tang San's disciples as a shield. If it weren't for Little Ball and Thor keeping an eye on Bibi Dong while she cooked, what kind of culinary disaster would he have eaten tonight! It seems pretty girls generally can't cook!

"Okay~ Xiaogang, when are we taking the kids out for a picnic? Should we invite Flender and the others along? It feels like the more people there are, the more lively it is, and it's a good way to relax. Xiaogang, you don't know how much more complicated things have become since Notting City expanded. If Yun Lan hadn't helped me with most of it, I really wouldn't be able to handle it all by myself."

Bibi Dong leaned on Yu Xiaogang's shoulder with a helpless expression and said, "It's alright, there's nothing I can do. Who told Bibi Dong to like managing these things so much? She even enjoys it. If she really doesn't want to manage these trivial matters, she can just leave them all to Yun Lan."

For these trivial matters, the semi-artificial intelligence Yun Lan can handle them with twice the efficiency. Now, Xiao Zhan, the Notting City Lord, has nothing to do every day, so he personally patrols Notting City with a group of guards to demonstrate the majesty of the Notting City Lord.

In fact, Yu Xiaogang would occasionally contact Yun Lan to get a general idea of the situation in Notting City. Ever since the Dragon Gate Sect became famous after Yu Xiaogang fought against the Spirit Hall, it has become more and more prosperous. Various forces have settled in Notting City. Now the city is a mixed bag. If it weren't for the fact that the Dragon Gate Sect was nearby, those petty scoundrels wouldn't dare to act recklessly!

After a warm dinner, Yu Xiaogang picked up Bibi Dong and carried her to the bedroom, which made Bibi Dong even more shy. After all, Yu Xiaogang had now undergone a complete transformation, which meant that this body belonged entirely to him and was no longer someone else's body.

Everything about the original Yu Xiaogang has vanished from this world. Now, only his name remains, which he has inherited. Today, having fully cultivated to the Nascent Soul Realm, Yu Xiaogang wants to test the depth of Bibi Dong's cultivation by talking Si Si his new brother.
