At Last, Bibi Dong

"I'd always heard that some Haotian Twin Stars had emerged on the continent, but Spirit Hall had nothing to show for it. I want to travel the continent too and make a name for Spirit Hall."

Having planned this for a long time, Bibi Dong had naturally prepared her words in advance.

Qian Xunji studied Bibi Dong for a while before finally nodding. "All right. I permit you to travel the continent."

"Yay!" Bibi Dong cheered and immediately wanted to pack her bags, bringing some gifts for her friends while she was at it.

"Wait." Qian Xunji continued, "You must bring the Ghost and Chrysanthemum Two Deacons with you on this trip. You are not allowed to deliberately shake them off."

"Got it, Teacher." Since it was only such a small matter, Bibi Dong agreed without a second thought.

As they spoke, she had already disappeared through the doors of the Great Hall.

Watching Bibi Dong depart, Qian Xunji shook his head helplessly.

She was already so old, yet still acted like a child.

Although he vaguely sensed that Bibi Dong had not been as close to him lately, he did not take it to heart.

He merely thought that as a child grew up, she would naturally develop some thoughts of her own.

As long as they were not too shocking, he would not interfere.

After leaving Spirit Hall's Main Hall, Bibi Dong took out the gold card she possessed as the Saintess and went on a shopping spree throughout Spirit City.

Anything she thought was good, she bought and packed away.

In less than half a day, she had filled her ten-cubic-meter storage Soul Tool.

She then hired a carriage and hurried out of Spirit City.

Ghost and Chrysanthemum Two Deacons were left rubbing their foreheads helplessly before they could only run after the carriage on foot.

Meanwhile, Wu Xian and the other three arrived in Heaven Dou City and found an inn to stay in temporarily.

They were waiting for Bibi Dong while also awaiting news of the Haotian Twin Stars.

Fortunately, those two never concealed their identities while roaming the continent.

They simply found an intelligence organization in Heaven Dou City and obtained the location of the Haotian Twin Stars.

It was said that the two had just participated in a forging competition in Gengxin City and were now preparing to return to the Clear Sky Sect.

As long as Wu Xian and the others headed to the border between Star Luo and Heavenly Dou, they could intercept them.

They would turn the Haotian Twin Stars into the Haotian Twin Pigs—in the literal sense.

Now, they only needed to wait for Bibi Dong to arrive before they could set off together.

The day after the four checked in, Bibi Dong arrived at the inn where they were staying.

The moment she entered, her eyes were drawn to the four dining downstairs.

There was no helping it. Three beauties with one child was simply too distinctive a group.

She strode over to them with her hands on her hips. "Hello, everyone. I'm Bibi Dong. Can I join you?"

"Of course, welcome." Ah Yin nodded and gestured for Bibi Dong to take a seat.

The sight left Ghost and Chrysanthemum, who were following behind her, utterly bewildered.

What was this? Were people in society nowadays so harmonious and friendly?

Someone could join a group after just two sentences? Even if all of them were handsome men and beautiful women, wasn't this far too careless?

And why was the Saintess so carefree too? Wasn't she afraid they might be bad people?

For a moment, the Chrysanthemum Ghost Duo worried that the Saintess might be abducted someday.

The two exchanged glances and watched the group even more vigilantly, afraid that the Saintess would suddenly be taken away.

What puzzled Ghost and Chrysanthemum even more was that the people at the table did not say anything at all, merely exchanging strange glances.

What they did not know was that in the Chat Group, which they could not see, the group was chatting enthusiastically.

After sitting for a while longer, under the watchful eyes of Ghost and Chrysanthemum,

the group rose together without exchanging a single word and headed outside the inn.

After boarding a carriage, they headed toward the southern gate of Heaven Dou City.

This made the two men's scalps tingle even more. Something was wrong. Had they secretly communicated somewhere they could not see?

But the strongest among them was only a Soul Emperor. They simply could not use Soul Power to transmit their voices, so how were they communicating as if nothing were amiss?

The bizarre sight sent chills down their spines.

But with the Saintess still inside the carriage, they had no choice but to continue following it.

Unaware that her strange behavior had already frightened Ghost and Chrysanthemum, Bibi Dong was still chatting happily in the Group Chat.

[Bibi Dong: By the way, how can you be sure Tang Hao will cross the border there?]

[Wu Xian: We have those two to thank for that. They have offended far too many people. Someone specifically collected their travel routes and deduced their likely route across the border.]

[Wu Xian: Besides that, someone has been following them and relaying their route to the outside world in real time.]

[Bibi Dong: I get it. They've provoked public outrage.]

[Wu Xian: That's right. We only need to head to the border step by step, and sooner or later we'll run into them.]

[Wu Xian: Oh, right. The Immortal Herb is for you. Remember to absorb it when you rest tonight. Then, if you replace it with a System Soul Ring, you can directly rise to level sixty, and we'll have a better chance against those two.]

[Bibi Dong: All right, thanks. I bought gifts for you too. I'll give them to you once we reach the border city.]

That evening, after arriving at the border city, the group rented rooms and returned to their own rooms.

Ghost and Chrysanthemum, who were standing guard outside Bibi Dong's room, suddenly sensed a powerful fluctuation of Soul Power.

Their hearts tightened. They shoved open the door and rushed into Bibi Dong's room, only to see her Soul Power surge violently as she broke through to level sixty.

The two were dumbfounded by the sight.

Unless their memories had been altered, Bibi Dong had clearly only been level fifty-five. How had she suddenly jumped to level sixty?

Just as the two were puzzled, Bibi Dong explained, "I took an Immortal Herb given to me by a friend."

Ju Yueguan's eyes widened instantly. No wonder. No wonder he had always sensed a strange aura from those people.

It now seemed that they had all consumed Immortal Herbs.

But he was still somewhat confused. Hadn't they known each other for less than a day? Why had those people already given her an Immortal Herb?

They were so generous. Could he go ask them for an Immortal Herb too?

If that were possible, forget becoming friends—Ju Yueguan would even acknowledge them as his parents.

However, he also knew that was impossible. Having even one Immortal Herb was already incredibly rare.

They had probably shared one Immortal Herb among themselves and given an extra portion to the Saintess. It seemed they truly were not bad people.

After they left, another enormous fluctuation of Soul Power came from the room.

This fluctuation directly broke through level sixty and reached around level sixty-two.

Ghost and Chrysanthemum exchanged glances and rushed into Bibi Dong's room again.

At a glance, they saw a pitch-black Soul Ring around Bibi Dong.

This shocked them even more. If they had not known that Bibi Dong was the Saintess personally acknowledged by the Pope,

they would have almost thought that the Bibi Dong before them was a Soul Beast that had undergone Humanoid Transformation.

At that moment, Bibi Dong explained again, "I received a divine inheritance. This is a god-given spirit ring bestowed by the gods."

After hearing this, the two nodded numbly and returned outside to resume their posts as guards.

They had only one thought in their hearts: Comparing oneself to others was enough to make anyone furious.
