Truth Is the Sharpest Blade

Truth Is the Sharpest Blade

Bibi Dong was still standing in Ratio's room, motionless before Ratio's statue. The only things on her entire body that could move were her breathing, her eyes, and her thoughts.

She glanced at the statue of Ratio beside her.

The mysterious power emanating from the statue had locked down her movements.

But what concerned her more was Ratio's face on the statue.

It was no longer hidden beneath a hood, but revealed the face of a real man. Even without color, his peerless elegance was plain to see.

Even judging him with the most critical eye, Bibi Dong had to admit that Ratio's statue possessed the most handsome face of any man she had ever seen!

This guy is really narcissistic!

And even more hypocritical! For the sake of fame, he deliberately put on airs, yet now he is still off enjoying fame and glory with Qian Daoliu, isn't he?

How could he possibly compare to my Xiaogang?

There has only ever been one Grandmaster! And that is Xiaogang!

Bibi Dong thought venomously.

At that moment, the door opened.

Ratio returned. He was still wearing his hood as he approached Bibi Dong.

Though Bibi Dong had remained utterly still, the clashing energies within her body had raised her temperature. She had broken out in a heavy sweat, soaking her dress through.

The thin dress clung to her delicate body, outlining her perfect curves.

Her charmingly beautiful face looked pitiful and vulnerable, yet carried a stubbornness that made one want to conquer her.

Waves of fragrance filled the room.

If any other man had entered, he might have become another Yin Zhiping from The Return of the Condor Heroes.

"I will set you free, but do not make trouble," Ratio said.

With that, Ratio snapped his fingers, and the stone statue swiftly vanished.

Bibi Dong suddenly regained her freedom. Her body was stiff, and she instinctively pitched forward, crashing toward Ratio.

Ratio sidestepped, and Bibi Dong fell to the floor.

"..." A venomous look immediately appeared in Bibi Dong's eyes.

After recovering on the floor for several seconds, she spoke coldly before Ratio could enter the bedroom. "Hypocrite! You must be enjoying all this glory, right? So many people call you a master. You must be very proud, right?"

"Only an idiot would ask such a question," Ratio said flatly.

"You!!!"

Bibi Dong gritted her teeth and glared furiously at Ratio.

Ratio continued.

"I dislike people who lack manners and hurl insults. That includes myself, of course. If you intend to waste my time, then with your current attitude toward me, I will not tolerate you. Do you understand?"

Ratio turned back to look at Bibi Dong. The stone statue's eyes shone with vivid expression.

He was threatening Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong's expression stiffened. From his earlier move, she had already realized one fact.

Though Ratio was not a Soul Master, he was stronger than her!

Now that he was threatening her, if she continued insulting him, Ratio would likely teach her a lesson.

Any normal person would know when to stop.

Bibi Dong smiled, and a trace of madness surfaced on her stunning face.

What a coincidence. She was not normal!!!

"Really? What can you do to me? Kill me? Or what? Before that, do not forget that I am the Pope of Spirit Hall! I am Qian Renxue's mother! I am your mother-in-law!"

"Tell me, what will you do to me? Huh? Ratio! Do not think you are so impressive just because you came up with some theoretical formula."

"In my eyes, you are still trash, nowhere near worthy of the title of master!"

Bibi Dong snarled, spewing vicious words.

Ratio remained calm as he looked at Bibi Dong. He had still underestimated the limits of an idiot.

However, as Bibi Dong had said, he would not kill easily. He was a scholar, a doctor, never an executioner. Even toward an ordinary person, he might not possess much killing intent.

Not to mention that Bibi Dong really was his mother-in-law in name.

But for a stubborn idiot like Bibi Dong, death was more like liberation. "Truth" was the sharpest blade!

Ratio suddenly said, "Your hysteria is because of the previous Grandmaster? That fool named Yu Xiaogang? Am I right? You seem to have an extremely strong filter over him."

"!!!"

Bibi Dong's pupils contracted as she stared at Ratio in disbelief.

She had not expected him to guess it.

"I can sense your defense of Yu Xiaogang. Is it two fools finding comfort in each other, or some other reason? I do not care. But since you wish to distort the truth, then let me explain it to you."

"Yu Xiaogang is a genuine fool."

"He places too much blind faith in the research of those before him. Every theory he proposes stands upon the shoulders of his predecessors, and he dares not innovate on his own. A person like that is merely a third-rate scholar... no, an ordinary student."

Ratio began his assessment.

It was very fair. In the end, Yu Xiaogang had never pioneered any entirely new theories.

He was only suited to being a student. Perhaps with existing works before him, he could reproduce them quickly, but asking him to conduct independent research and development was absolutely impossible.

"What nonsense!"

A flush appeared on Bibi Dong's face. Her full, proud breasts rose and fell slightly, creating alluring curves.

Clearly, she was beginning to lose control of her anger.

Yu Xiaogang was her reverse scale. Touch it, and she exploded!

"From your attitude, I am even more certain that you are in love with him. In your heart, you have constantly beautified him, turning a mortal into a god."

"But Yu Xiaogang is not a god. He is merely a fool."

"You tried to use the god in your heart to belittle my learning, but you cannot deceive your own heart. That is why you became so angry and embarrassed, trying to demean me through strength, morality, and other means."

Ratio bent down and stared Bibi Dong in the eye.

Bibi Dong's entire body trembled violently. Her lips opened and closed, but she was completely unable to say a word!

Her Phoenix Eyes were wide with hatred.

Yet deep within them was a trace of panic.

Because Ratio had seen through her heart!

Before Ratio, she was like a prostitute stripped naked, with nowhere to hide.

That feeling directly dragged her down from her lofty status as the Female Pope. All her pride seemed to have become a joke, at least before Ratio.

"I... you... you..."

Ratio pressed a hand onto Bibi Dong's shoulder, and an inexplicable power invaded her body.

The Soul Power Bibi Dong had been about to unleash instantly became a stagnant pool of dead water.

Leaning close to Bibi Dong's ear, Ratio said again, "You have been beautifying a fool, but you can never truly deceive yourself... Beneath that filter, the truth is so utterly mediocre."

"..." Mediocre. Yes, the more she saw Ratio, the more she questioned herself, the clearer her mind became.

Yu Xiaogang was not as knowledgeable and extraordinary as she had imagined him to be... On the contrary, he was merely a fool who had made use of Spirit Hall's formulas...

"Pfft...!!!"

Bibi Dong suddenly opened her mouth and spat out a large mouthful of blood. Her expression instantly withered.
