Heart Went Numb

Before entering the Blacksmith Association, Lin Hanye deliberately used Thousand Faces to change his appearance so no one would later associate him with the true effects of whale glue.

After paying a certain number of Gold Soul Coins, Lin Hanye rented a Forging Furnace and entrusted a blacksmith to melt the two pieces of Ten Thousand Year Whale Glue in his possession.

It had to be said, the Forging Furnace of the Blacksmith Association really was impressive.

It was absolutely not something ordinary forging furnaces in other cities could compare to.

In less than One Hour, it had melted them into a soft, glue-like substance.

Immediately after, Lin Hanye took the softened whale glue back to the small courtyard he had rented.

He went separately to Liu Erlong's and Shao Xin's rooms to take a look. Seeing that they were still refining the whale glue, he simply returned to his own room and began refining it himself.

By the time he had completely refined it, it was already late at night. Lin Hanye only felt a surge of strength throughout his body that he had nowhere to use. Though his physique had not changed much, his entire body was now as strong as an ox.

He even had the distinct feeling that he could beat Tang Zhan to death with his bare hands, rather than relying on the Body Flicker Technique and Frost Sword Finger to win with the Kiting Tactic.

After glancing at the sky, Lin Hanye familiarly made his way to a manor in the south of the city, his gaze gentle as he looked toward an absolutely beautiful woman who had been waiting there for quite some time.

Bibi Dong was still wearing that high-collared long dress. The pale purple dress highlighted her noble and delicate bearing, and her beautiful eyes looked at him tenderly as she asked with a hint of concern, "Little Linzi, did refining the Immortal Herb and whale glue go smoothly?"

"Mm."

Lin Hanye nodded slightly, stepped forward, and gave Bibi Dong a loving hug. After soothing her with a word, he chuckled softly and said, "It's just that I spend every day with other women. I've made you suffer."

Lin Hanye said it lightly, but Bibi Dong felt quite distressed as she imagined, on her own, the scene of Lin Hanye forcing himself to interact with women he did not like for her sake.

"Little Linzi, why must you go this far? You don't have to force yourself. As Long As you're willing, I'll use every method at my disposal to seize the position of Spirit Hall Pope, and then help you fulfill your ambition."

Bibi Dong leaned in Lin Hanye's arms, slightly raising that exquisite, breathtakingly beautiful face. Deep affection flowed through her phoenix eyes as she spoke softly, as though As Long As Lin Hanye was willing, she would devote everything to him without hesitation.

"Silly girl, you and I both know what kind of person the Pope is. I couldn't bear to let you take that risk. Besides, compared with that so-called ambition, nothing is more important than you."

Lin Hanye Shook His Head, lowered his head, kissed her forehead, and chuckled.

If this were another world, perhaps special methods such as poisoning And The Like might work.

But in this fantasy world where people could cultivate, even if it was the floor tile of fantasy worlds, trying to overthrow someone above you was still almost impossible.

Even if they truly got lucky and killed Qian Xunji, they absolutely would not get past Qian Daoliu.

In the Original Work, the reason Bibi Dong could kill Qian Xunji and still act as though nothing had happened, even successfully becoming Pope, was only because Qian Xunji had violated Bibi Dong, and Qian Daoliu felt he owed her.

Of course, the most crucial point was that Bibi Dong was Qian Renxue's mother.

Otherwise, no matter how much he felt he owed her, after she killed his son, he would absolutely not show mercy.

So, if he wanted to successfully get rid of Qian Xunji, there was only one method.

That was to borrow a hammer to kill someone.

As for whose hand he would borrow, it already went without saying.

Just as Lin Hanye was thinking about how to design a trap to get Qian Xunji killed, Bibi Dong blinked and said as though it were only natural, "You are the only person in this world who truly thinks for the common people at the bottom and civilian soul masters. So your ambition is my ambition."

Lin Hanye froze, then immediately hugged Bibi Dong tightly. "Dong'er, it's so good to have you!"

Hearing This, Bibi Dong's Heart Went Numb.

With a wife like Bibi Dong, you never needed to worry that she would drag you back by the hind legs, because she would always stand on your side.

"I will naturally establish the Soul Master Guild, However, It Was not now."

Holding Bibi Dong, Lin Hanye rested his head against her smooth hair and whispered softly beside her ear, telling her the truest thoughts in his heart. "It will affect the interests of too many people. So, before I'm Promoted to Titled Douluo, all I can do is gather as many outstanding partners with the same ideals as possible."

"Besides, even if I established the Soul Master Guild now, it wouldn't change anything. Instead, it would make me the target of everyone's arrows. I can't drag you into it too. If I can't even take care of the woman I love, wouldn't that make me seem far too useless as a man?"

He slowly raised his head, his gaze full of affection as he looked at Bibi Dong. He cupped her face in his hands, his thumb sliding gently as he felt the delicacy of her skin, full of collagen. Even looking at her from up close, he could not find the slightest flaw. She was perfect, unlike something made in the mortal world.

It could only make him sigh at the beauty of Douluo Continent.

It was hard to imagine how devastatingly beautiful she would become in a few more years, once she fully grew into herself.

"Little Linzi."

Bibi Dong looked at Lin Hanye, moved, gazing at him with deep affection.

At this moment, Bibi Dong's eyes could no longer hold anything else. They were filled completely with the person before her. So what if she had to die for him?

At this age, when someone met the person they liked, and after finally gaining one chance to start over, it was either for a lifetime, or they would give up their life.

"Can you remove the 'Little' and the 'zi'?"

Speaking of which, the nickname Little Linzi had come from the Second Simulation, when Lin Hanye first met Bibi Dong. The two had bickered during their first meeting, and Bibi Dong found it amusing, so she called him that.

Afterward, she never changed it again.

"No." For Bibi Dong, she could agree to anything for him, except changing the nickname Little Linzi. Because it represented the most beautiful memory in both their hearts.

Hearing This, Lin Hanye could no longer hold back. He bent down and bit down, pressing Bibi Dong against the pavilion pillar.

At the Same Time, At a certain corner of a wall, a fiery-red figure revealed herself slightly. She watched this scene from afar, her slender jade hand Couldn't Help But clutch at her skirt, utterly dumbfounded.

No matter what, Ling Yuan had never imagined that Your Highness, the Saintess, would progress so quickly with this pretty boy, to the point of doing something so shameful.

Though she was too far away to hear what they were saying, if His Holiness the Pope found out about this happening in broad daylight, in front of everyone, then what would happen?

At this moment, because Ling Yuan had refined the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower and her martial soul had transformed into the Fire Phoenix, her appearance had changed greatly.

First was her outfit. Her armor and dress had changed from their original black to red. She had become even more beautiful than before, her figure even better, and her ear-length short hair, once combed to the left, had turned into a head of fiery-red wavy long hair. She was like a blazing Female War God, heroic and spirited.

She pursed her lips. In those alluring eyes of hers were a few more emotions even she could not quite understand: curiosity, worry, and yearning, all finally turning into a helpless, ethereal voice, as if she had let it go. "Forget it. I'm already on the pirate ship, so I'll just pretend I didn't see anything."

With that, she turned and left the manor.
