Creak!

The door opened from within.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei stared at Bibi Dong in surprise.

The Holy Maiden had actually come out!

The two exchanged glances, each seeing the confusion in the other's eyes.

This did not fit the Holy Maiden's usual style at all!

Bibi Dong said calmly, "I do not wish for Ju Gui Douluo to suffer such punishment and lose all face because of me!"

So that was it!

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan and Gui Mei were immediately deeply moved.

They truly had not expected the Holy Maiden to care about them so much!

The two hurriedly bowed. "Thank you for your understanding, Holy Maiden!"

Bibi Dong quickly raised a hand to support them. "There is no need for this! The two of you have always taken good care of me. I should be the one thanking you!"

After a round of mutual flattery, their relationship naturally deepened considerably.

Along the way, Bibi Dong began chatting with Yue Guan and Gui Mei.

She tried her best to sound casual. "I heard she also awakened Twin Martial Souls?"

Yue Guan and Gui Mei naturally understood who "she" was and hurriedly nodded.

"Yes! Holy Maiden, just like you!" Yue Guan said with a broad smile.

Just like you!

Bibi Dong's heart trembled again!

Only after quite some time did she speak again. "Which one is her Second Spirit? The Soul Devouring Spider Emperor, or the Death Spider Emperor?"

Before these two, Bibi Dong was relatively direct.

"Uh..." Yue Guan did not know how to answer. Neither did Gui Mei.

"Hm?" Bibi Dong was somewhat puzzled. Was this so difficult to answer?

In truth, they did not know what Qian Renxue's Second Spirit was either!

Gui Mei explained, "Holy Maiden, the Young Master did indeed awaken Twin Martial Souls..."

"But the two of us still do not know what the Young Master's Second Spirit is!"

Yue Guan continued, "A few days ago, we were chatting with a worshipper from the Elder Hall and asked about the Young Master's Second Spirit."

"But that worshipper merely sighed and turned around to leave!"

Recalling the scene, Yue Guan said, "His expression was not very pleasant. He seemed unwilling to discuss this matter further!"

Hearing this, Bibi Dong could not help clenching her fists.

Were they looking down on her spirit?

Did they think her spirit was unworthy of standing alongside the Six-winged Angel?

Damn it!

What a bunch of decayed, stubborn old fossils!

Noticing Bibi Dong's expression, Yue Guan immediately realized he had said too much.

He guessed what Bibi Dong was thinking.

Like Bibi Dong, Gui Mei and he believed that Qian Renxue's Second Spirit was one of Bibi Dong's Twin Martial Souls.

Before Douluo Hall, the Titled Douluo and Platinum Bishops arrived one after another.

Qian Xunjie arrived last with Qian Renxue.

As for Qian Daoliu and the other six worshippers, they did not appear.

Qian Xunjie looked toward Bibi Dong's residence, his brows slightly furrowed.

She still had not come!

Had I miscalculated?

"Father, what are you looking at?" Qian Renxue asked curiously.

Today, she was also dressed in an elaborate golden court gown.

"Nothing," Qian Xunjie replied calmly.

Everyone quietly watched the sundial, waiting for the auspicious hour to arrive.

Suddenly, Qian Xunjie looked in that direction again.

He smiled.

Bibi Dong had come!

Sure enough, she was a woman ruled by emotion!

As long as I plan carefully, I will definitely be able to use Xue'er to bind her to Spirit Hall forever!

How much charm could that useless Yu Xiaogang, a level-twenty-nine Farting Pig, possibly have?

Dong'er and I were at odds now only because she was dissatisfied with the coercive measures I used back then!

Momentary passion would fade with time, but the bond of blood would never change!

Qian Xunjie was immensely pleased with himself!

Beside him, Qian Renxue followed his gaze and naturally saw Bibi Dong as well!

"Mother!" Her eyes were filled with anticipation.

Unable to suppress her excitement, Qian Renxue immediately wanted to run before Bibi Dong.

"Xue'er, have you forgotten all the etiquette I taught you?" Qian Xunjie said sternly.

Qian Renxue could only lower her raised right foot.

"Bibi Dong..." Within the Spiritual Space, Lucifer was seeing Bibi Dong for the first time as well.

"But coming at a time like this..."

If Bibi Dong had come early, he would not have been surprised.

If she had not come, he would not have been surprised either.

But for her to come at this time made Lucifer realize that something was off.

Upon seeing Bibi Dong, everyone in Spirit Hall was somewhat surprised.

"The Holy Maiden actually came!"

"She never attended the Grand Sacrifice in previous years!"

"Not only that, she did not attend any other major ceremonies either!"

"What is going on today?"

Everyone whispered among themselves, and not one of them was not curious about the reason.

Seeing this, Qian Xunjie gave a heavy snort.

The entire venue immediately fell silent!

Every mouth shut tightly.

Bibi Dong stood behind Qian Xunjie, one position away from Qian Renxue.

This made Qian Renxue even more excited!

She faced forward, but her eyes kept darting toward Bibi Dong.

If not for the occasion, she would have been unable to resist moving closer to Bibi Dong!

Within the Spiritual Space, Lucifer was amused by Qian Renxue.

However, Bibi Dong stood rather far from Qian Xunjie.

From the perspective of those behind them, the three stood in a highly asymmetrical formation that looked rather awkward.

"The auspicious hour has arrived!"

Following the prescribed procedures, Qian Xunjie led the people of Spirit Hall in paying respects to the Titled Douluo ancestors buried here.

Bibi Dong also performed each ritual gesture step by step.

However, she would occasionally glance toward Qian Renxue.

This gave Qian Renxue, who had been secretly watching her, quite a fright, and she hurriedly shifted her gaze back ahead.

Noticing Qian Renxue's state, Bibi Dong did not know why, but a trace of guilt suddenly welled up in her heart!

Was this how a normal child reacted when facing her mother?

Lucifer sensed Qian Renxue's heartbeat quickening more and more.

"Her mother had always been cold and distant, yet she had suddenly begun paying attention to her."

"That truly left Qian Renxue unsure of how to respond!"

He also felt somewhat emotional about Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong's fates.

"But sorry, I am the ultimate villain!"

"Warmheartedly bringing a mother and daughter together is not within my line of work!"

Lucifer constantly kept his original intention firmly in mind!

Amid the strange atmosphere surrounding the three at the front, the Grand Sacrifice ceremony finally ended!

The people of Spirit Hall stood solemnly where they were. It was customary for the Pope to leave first.

At the very front, Qian Xunjie gave the master of ceremonies a look.

The master of ceremonies understood immediately. "Dismissed!"

The Pope had not even left yet!

Everyone was somewhat puzzled, but they still began leaving one after another.

Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and the others also tactfully departed.

Until only Qian Xunjie, Bibi Dong, and Qian Renxue remained before Douluo Hall.

Bibi Dong stood still without moving.

Qian Renxue wanted to approach her mother, but she was afraid her father would reprimand her, so she could only continue suppressing her excited emotions.

However, her gaze was now openly fixed in Bibi Dong's direction.

Yet by this point, Bibi Dong no longer glanced at Qian Renxue even once.

Qian Xunjie turned around.

Bibi Dong's face was expressionless, as though she could not see him at all.

Qian Renxue looked at her father expectantly, hoping he would permit her to get close to her mother.

"Tut, tut, tut! What an utterly brilliant family drama!"

Lucifer closed the Eighteen Juicing Methods of Blue Silver Grass in his hands and watched the spectacle with great interest.
