Before Lin Chen could figure things out, Bibi Dong's soul power surged over him like a flood, leaving him unable to voice his grievances.
Bibi Dong really was a crazy woman. Had she reached menopause or something?
She'd been perfectly fine just a moment ago, practically coaxing him into a stupor. Now she'd turned on him without a second thought and was using her soul power to crush him.
The next moment,
Bibi Dong's jade foot, clad in Silver High Heels, came down on Lin Chen's chest. She pressed lightly, and he was forced to kneel.
"Lin Chen, you little brat. Do you really think you're clever enough to toy with this Pope? Do you honestly think I'm so easy to deceive?"
Bibi Dong's voice held not a trace of emotion, and every word carried a bone-chilling coldness.
Looking at Bibi Dong like this, Lin Chen wanted to cry but had no tears.
Come on, I can't praise you, and I can't criticize you either. Your Holiness, what exactly do you want me to do to make you happy?
"Your Holiness."
"Everything I said was what I truly felt. I didn't say a single word that wasn't sincere."
Lin Chen spoke through gritted teeth.
After this was over, Lin Chen swore he'd leave Notting Academy and get as far away from that crazy woman, Bibi Dong, as possible.
Now that Bibi Dong knew where he was, she could come bully him whenever she was in a bad mood. Wasn't she treating him like a punching bag?
Besides, Bibi Dong's behavior hadn't crossed the system's line, so she naturally wouldn't be punished by it.
But Bibi Dong's behavior was infuriating.
Lin Chen had no intention of becoming Bibi Dong's punching bag. He had to leave Notting Academy as soon as possible.
"Hmph. You certainly have a silver tongue."
"I'll give you a chance to make amends. Give me a massage in a moment."
"If it feels good, I'll let you off. Otherwise, you'll regret it."
After her anger subsided, Bibi Dong gradually calmed down and gave Lin Chen her orders.
Then Bibi Dong dispersed her soul power pressure and lifted the Silver High Heels that had been pressing against Lin Chen's chest.
"Understood, Your Holiness."
At once, Lin Chen replied.
But where Bibi Dong couldn't see him, Lin Chen rolled his eyes and silently scorned her.
"Threatening me? It's not as if you can actually hurt me."
Though he thought that about Bibi Dong, Lin Chen still did as she said.
Otherwise, Bibi Dong would just kick his little chest with her jade foot in Silver High Heels again.
Lin Chen looked at how high Bibi Dong was sitting in her chair and realized he was too short. He'd need a stool to stand on.
So Lin Chen fetched a stool from nearby, set it behind Bibi Dong, climbed onto it, and began his massage adventure.
Bibi Dong slowly closed her eyes, waiting for Lin Chen's little hands to settle on her shoulders.
At that moment, Lin Chen found himself in an awkward position.
He was standing behind Bibi Dong on a stool, and that put him a little higher than her as she reclined in the chair.
From that position, at that distance, with Bibi Dong's full, firm figure before him,
he could catch a glimpse of the round, ample, snow-white curves, smooth as jade.
Lin Chen didn't know what to do, and his cheeks began to flush.
If he warned Bibi Dong about the situation, he'd just get hit by her Silver High Heels again.
With no other choice, Lin Chen silently recited "Amitabha" as he massaged Bibi Dong's shoulders.
"Mmm~"
"That feels wonderful. Lin Chen, put a little more strength into it."
Lin Chen's hands felt so good against Bibi Dong's body that she couldn't help swaying twice before urging him on.
When Bibi Dong swayed, Lin Chen's cheeks turned even redder.
How could she be so white? She really was like porcelain.
It was just like the saying went: everyone hated the Secret Chamber Douluo, and everyone wanted to be the Secret Chamber Douluo.
The massage went on for half an hour before Bibi Dong finally let him go.
Afterward, Lin Chen's hands were so sore. He wanted to lodge a complaint against Bibi Dong for abusing child labor.
Meanwhile, Bibi Dong's cheeks were flushed, and she looked thoroughly pleased with Lin Chen's massage.
"Not bad."
"Lin Chen, catch. This is your reward from me."
As soon as she finished speaking, Bibi Dong took out a Silver Soul Coin and tossed it into Lin Chen's hand.
Looking at the Silver Soul Coin in his hand, Lin Chen scorned Bibi Dong all over again.
From the way she'd said it, he'd thought the crazy woman was going to give him some kind of treasure.
He hadn't expected a single Silver Soul Coin. What was this, charity for beggars?
Was he, Lin Chen, short on Silver Soul Coins? If nothing else, she could at least have given him a Gold Soul Coin.
Gangzi was so poor, yet he'd still managed to give Tang san a Storage Soul Tool.
And you're the Martial Soul Hall Pope. After receiving my services, you give me just one Silver Soul Coin? How utterly shameless can you get?
"Thank you, Your Holiness."
Though he despised Bibi Dong's behavior, Lin Chen still played along.
"Mm. Consider that Silver Soul Coin payment for your meal. You should be grateful to me."
"After all, you're an orphan. This must be the first time you've seen such a large sum of money."
Bibi Dong looked at Lin Chen with a smile.
"By the way, Lin Chen."
"I see your Martial Soul has evolved into a High Rank Martial Soul. Would you like to return to Spirit Hall with me?"
"As long as you join Spirit Hall, you won't have to worry about resources in the future."
Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes, a trace of soul power pressure radiating from her as if to warn Lin Chen.
Naturally, Bibi Dong wanted to keep Lin Chen by her side.
That way, she could claim the Diary Copy's Hidden Reward and occasionally bully Lin Chen, the little brat. What could be better?
So she let a trace of soul power pressure seep out, hoping to intimidate him.
But before Lin Chen could react,
the Diary Copy began warning Bibi Dong.
[ Ding! The owner of the Diary Copy may not restrict the Diary Owner Lin Chen's freedom. Violators will have their Diary Copy revoked and their related memories erased! ] [ Ding! The system encourages free competition among Diary Copy owners and opposes malicious competition. Violators will have their Diary Copy revoked and their related memories erased! ]
The system's Mechanical Sound rang again and again in Bibi Dong's mind, shattering her plans completely.
It seemed she couldn't force Lin Chen to do what she wanted. She'd have to persuade him patiently.
Thinking this, Bibi Dong withdrew her soul power pressure, looking regretful.
Seeing Bibi Dong release her soul power pressure and then withdraw it, Lin Chen was utterly baffled.
He now seriously suspected that the crazy woman Bibi Dong had split personalities. This only strengthened his resolve to leave Notting Academy.
Meanwhile,
the two system warnings rang in the minds of Diary Copy owners throughout the Douluo Continent.
After learning about the two newly established rules, they were all confused.
Why had the Diary Copy suddenly introduced these two rules? Was someone trying to restrict Lin Chen's freedom and engage in malicious competition?
