Proud Little Golden Retriever

Proud Little Golden Retriever

"I'm no mediocrity!!!"

Bibi Dong blurted out furiously.

That useless live-in son-in-law called people mediocre one moment and idiots the next. What did he take her, the dignified Female Pope of Spirit Hall, for?

The resentment of having her intelligence crushed erupted all at once!

Bibi Dong suddenly sat upright, glaring coldly at Dr. Ratio.

Just as she was about to retort, the strange sensation of being wrapped around her chest made her body react first. Her face flushed, her heart raced, and she hurriedly looked down.

A large hand was kneading her like dough.

A large expanse of her jade-like skin was exposed, including her slender waist, with only a pair of purple underwear pitifully covering her.

"???" Bibi Dong was dumbfounded, and her fury instantly turned to confusion.

Dr. Ratio withdrew his hand without the slightest reluctance to part with the beauty of a woman's body.

"She has awakened, but her heart has not emerged from it. In her current state, it will not negatively affect her cultivation for now, but she will not be able to go far unless her temperament changes drastically."

Dr. Ratio had allowed Bibi Dong's Soul Power to fall earlier because it was good for her.

A Soul Master's cultivation could not be judged solely by the growth of Soul Power, but unfortunately, the overwhelming majority of Soul Masters did not understand this principle.

That included the three women present, even though they were all among the foremost figures in Soul Master cultivation.

"Bastard!!! Is this how you treated me?! Dr. Ratio, I never thought you harbored such vile intentions!" Bibi Dong gritted her teeth as she hurriedly pulled up the blanket and glared at Dr. Ratio.

"Don't talk nonsense! At your age, Brother Ratio can't even be bothered to look!"

Qian Renxue immediately shot back.

Bibi Dong's entire face flushed with anger. What did she mean, at her age?

Hu Liena stepped forward and tucked in Bibi Dong's blanket, softly reminding her, "Teacher, there's been a misunderstanding. You... your clothes were taken off by me..."

"..."

Bibi Dong's expression changed at once, and she felt unbearably embarrassed.

Why did this disciple of mine have to strip me for no reason?!

Now Dr. Ratio had gotten an eyeful instead!

Hu Liena lowered her head guiltily and silently swore, Even if I die, I can't let Teacher find out that Dr. Ratio has already seen me naked!

Dr. Ratio had no intention of conversing with this flock of women and simply turned to leave.

The three women watched his retreating back, each wearing a different expression.

Yet they all inexplicably shared a similar thought: Bibi Dong's naked body probably really was not worth looking at in Dr. Ratio's eyes.

Could it be that I really am an old woman?

Bibi Dong suddenly began to doubt herself.

Then she turned to Qian Renxue suspiciously. "Why aren't you leaving with him? What are you still doing here?"

Ever since she was little, Qian Renxue had been Brother Ratio's little tagalong.

Now that she had finally returned and their time was limited, Qian Renxue could actually resist following Dr. Ratio.

Something was definitely wrong!!!

Qian Renxue pulled over a chair and sat on it with her legs crossed, a smug smile appearing on her face.

"Pope Your Majesty, Brother Ratio saved you. Why aren't you grateful?"

"..." Bibi Dong's expression stiffened. She understood now. This little brat had come just to make things difficult for her!

Even so, she no longer looked at Qian Renxue with the same intense hatred as before.

"Hehe, you want me to thank him? If it weren't for him, would I have fallen all the way to a Soul Douluo... Hm? A Soul Douluo?!" Bibi Dong's voice sharpened, and her expression changed drastically.

Only then did she realize that her Soul Power had actually dropped below Titled Douluo?!

An awkward look flashed through Qian Renxue's eyes. With her current understanding, she still could not grasp what Dr. Ratio had said. Her understanding of cultivation remained focused on the level of one's Soul Power.

"Ahem. For you, this was saving you."

Bibi Dong nearly laughed in fury. She had fallen from a Titled Douluo to a Soul Douluo. Was she supposed to thank Dr. Ratio for such a drop?!

"Why don't you let him do something so wonderful to you too?" Bibi Dong snorted coldly.

Qian Renxue looked displeased. Crossing her arms, she said flatly, "Brother Ratio doesn't have that much time. If it weren't for my sake, he wouldn't have helped you at all."

Qian Renxue lifted her snow-white chin slightly, a faint pride showing on her peerlessly beautiful face.

Like a proud little golden retriever.

"..." Bibi Dong's heart skipped a beat as she watched Qian Renxue's smug expression.

She suddenly had a powerful urge to pull this proud daughter into her arms.

That was something that would have been absolutely impossible before.

Could that useless live-in son-in-law have used some kind of sorcery on me?

Bibi Dong secretly suspected him.

"Besides, Brother Ratio is a very busy man now. A single lecture drew a million spectators! In the entire Soul Master Realm—no, in the entire Douluo Continent—who doesn't know Brother Ratio's name?"

"Even Spirit Hall doesn't have as much influence as Brother Ratio!"

"Forget you, the Pope. Even the two emperors of Heavenly Dou and Star Luo are absolutely no match for Brother Ratio~!"

The corners of Qian Renxue's lips curled upward, unable to suppress her smile.

She looked at Bibi Dong provocatively, as if saying: The Brother Ratio you all looked down on is the one who has made the most of himself. Now everyone can only look up at his achievements!

Bibi Dong looked stunned. A million spectators?

What had happened while she was unconscious?

Seeing that Bibi Dong did not understand, Hu Liena softly told her what had happened during this time.

This included Dr. Ratio's performance at the lecture. He had treated the audience like dirt and acted entirely on his own terms, yet that only made people believe in him even more!

In short, Dr. Ratio had been unbelievably impressive in every possible way.

With just a slight display of his abilities, he had left countless people drooling!

"...Xie Yue only needed a little adjustment from Dr. Ratio to reach the Spirit King level. That guy really got lucky," Hu Liena said with a hint of envy.

"..." Beneath the blanket, Bibi Dong's delicate hand clenched into a fist.

She could not help but secretly resent Hu Liena. Why did she have to explain it all so clearly?

So Qian Renxue could laugh at her?!

Now, if she insisted on finding fault with Dr. Ratio and belittling him, it would only prove that she was burning with jealousy.

But seeing Qian Renxue's proud expression... it was rather pretty, and she truly was worthy of being her daughter. Yet the moment Bibi Dong remembered it was because of Dr. Ratio, she could not stand it.

As if possessed, she suddenly shut her eyes and collapsed backward.

"Teacher!!!" Hu Liena cried out in alarm.

She hurriedly checked on Bibi Dong in a panic. "What did Dr. Ratio do again? Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation? I think that was it? Should I try it...?"

Hu Liena was about to kiss Bibi Dong's rosy lips.

Qian Renxue found it amusing and pulled Hu Liena back. "No mouth-to-mouth resuscitation needed. She was probably so petty that she fainted from anger!"

"..."

Bibi Dong's thoughts were in complete turmoil. What? I was kissed too?!
