"Yes, you are afraid of losing, you cannot afford to lose, so you must minimize the risk. Isn't what I'm doing now also to minimize the impact of this matter on Xiaoxue?" Qian Xunji said.
"Over the past few years, I have been trying to erode Xiaoxue's feelings for Bibi Dong while reasoning with her, but as you have seen, the moment her mother returns, she throws everything I said to the back of her mind."
"Facts have proven that you cannot teach someone just by reasoning with them. She must go see for herself, experience it for herself. That place, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, is the best environment for Xiaoxue's growth."
Qian Daoliu was still somewhat hesitant. "Martial Soul City could also..."
"Father! I would rather she become cold-blooded in the future, at least then she can protect herself, than have her turn into what Bibi Dong was before." Qian Xunji said.
"In Martial Soul City, she will subconsciously rely on us. Once this reliance becomes a habit, we can help and protect her now, but what about after she becomes a god in the future? Who will she be able to rely on then?"
"Xiaoxue is no ordinary person. She has an unprecedented Innate Level 20 and is destined to become a god. For her, the most important thing is not diligent cultivation, but the tempering of her state of mind."
"What about safety?" Qian Daoliu sighed.
"She is only nine years old. If you send her to such a ghostly place and she encounters danger, what then?"
"You don't need to worry about that. In the Heaven Dou City Martial Soul Temple, we have three Spirit Douluo bishops and over a dozen Spirit Sages stationed there. Xiaoxue's safety is absolutely guaranteed," Qian Xunji said.
"Besides, given the cowardly nature of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, even if they discovered this, do you think they would dare to tear off the mask and confront us?"
Destroying the Heaven Dou Imperial Family is not a difficult task for Martial Soul Hall. The problem is that the situation in the Heaven Dou Empire is special; they are already harboring their own ulterior motives. Once a problem arises with the imperial family, the kingdoms and duchies below would declare independence in a heartbeat.
It would be absolute chaos!
As for Star Luo, the Dai imperial family has a close relationship with the Clear Sky Sect, and the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of the Star Luo royal family cannot be faked. The difficulty of going undercover there is too high, and the risk is too great.
By comparison, the Heaven Dou Empire is much more suitable.
Even if Qian Renxue were exposed, it wouldn't be a big deal.
Would the Heaven Dou Imperial Family really dare to declare war on Martial Soul Hall?
They already can't control their own nobles and kingdoms; declare war?
Then the Heaven Dou Imperial Family would truly be courting their own destruction.
Saintess Hall.
"Your killing intent really is easy to lose control of," Nan Feng remarked.
Earlier, when he went to the Pope Hall and saw Qian Xunji, his killing intent had flared up in an instant. This time, seeing Qian Renxue's Martial Soul Avatar, it had surged out just as quickly.
Bibi Dong, having just finished regulating her breathing, opened her eyes. "It's not like you don't know how many people I killed in Slaughter City. The killing intent accumulated within my body, and the Slaughter God's Domain formed from it is inherently restless."
As she spoke, Bibi Dong's expression became somewhat unnatural.
Because of Nan Feng's presence, she hadn't even begun to suppress the killing intent herself until now; every time the killing intent flared up, this brat would suppress it for her in a matter of seconds.
"From now on, unless I go insane, you are not to suppress my killing intent again," Bibi Dong said.
If she continued to rely on him, she feared she would never be able to control her Slaughter God's Domain.
"But I'm scared!" Nan Feng said.
"You have no idea how terrifying you looked back then. If I don't help you suppress it, what if you happen to lose your head and just happen to slash me to death?"
Bibi Dong was momentarily speechless.
That was indeed a problem.
When her killing intent spiraled out of control, everyone she saw looked like Qian Xunji!
"How about I find you a place to stay?" Bibi Dong said.
"It just so happens that I plan to go into seclusion, so I won't have time to look after you anyway."
"A place to stay?" Nan Feng hesitated for a moment.
"Where? Let's get this straight first: I'm not going to suffer any hardships!"
"I've suffered enough grievances in Slaughter City; in this life, it is absolutely impossible for me to suffer even the slightest bit of grievance again!"
Several days later, Martial Soul Hall Academy.
Without a doubt, this was the most powerful Soul Master Academy on the Douluo Continent. Because Martial Soul Hall itself was a massive organization of soul masters, the descendants of those within the organization were almost all sent to Martial Soul Hall Academy for training.
"You aren't thinking of making me go to school, are you?" Nan Feng asked, looking strange.
"No, I'm here to find someone," Bibi Dong said.
Back in Slaughter City, she had already taught Nan Feng a great deal. This child had an excellent memory and could recite almost everything she had said backward, so there was no need for him to enter a Soul Master Academy.
Moreover, the greatest benefit a Soul Master Academy provided to a soul master was the acquisition of Spirit Rings.
But Nan Feng did not need to hunt for Spirit Rings, and his knowledge base was already sufficient. As for combat, this child was a Healing-type Soul Master, so he didn't need to worry about such things. Besides, even if he needed to be taught, she would teach him herself.
"Finding someone?" Nan Feng poked his head out and looked around.
"A man or a woman?"
"Let's get this straight: there is no way I'm letting a man support me!"
Bibi Dong's eye twitched. "It's a little girl."
As they spoke, Bibi Dong had already arrived at the teaching area of the Junior Soul Master Academy within the Martial Soul Hall Academy. She found the person in charge and inquired about the child she was looking for.
Before long, the Dean of Academic Affairs walked in, leading a timid little girl with short, pink-gold hair.
"Saintess?" Hu Liena was clearly stunned when she saw who had arrived.
"Nana, long time no see." For once, Bibi Dong displayed a smile that could be described as kind while out in public.
Seeing this, the Dean of Academic Affairs very tactfully left the office and closed the door behind him.
"You intend for her to take care of me?" Nan Feng said.
Hu Liena stared blankly at the small golden cat sitting on the table that could speak human language.
Am I hallucinating?
Bibi Dong's eye twitched. "Nana, this cat is a special breed; it can speak human language. Don't be nervous."
Before she could finish her sentence, a flash of light swept over Nan Feng. In the blink of an eye, the small cat vanished, replaced by a handsome boy of twelve or thirteen.
"..."
The air seemed to freeze for a second or two. Hu Liena's vision went black, and she fell backward. Bibi Dong hurriedly reached out to catch her in her arms.
"She's got no guts," Nan Feng pouted.
Before leaving, he had already made Bibi Dong get him an outfit—he was wearing clothes.
Bibi Dong placed the fainted Hu Liena onto the sofa and grabbed Nan Feng by the collar with a hostile expression. "What the hell are you doing?!"
Nan Feng looked innocent. "Isn't she one of us?"
"One of us?" Bibi Dong's eye twitched.
"Since when did I... No! What do you mean, 'one of us'?"
"The League of the Unrighteous! The anti-feudal, anti-landlord, anti-hegemony alliance dedicated to killing Qian Xunji and seizing Martial Soul Hall!" Nan Feng said with a straight face.
"Huh?" Bibi Dong looked bewildered.
Where did this string of nouns even come from?
"The moment I arrived in Martial Soul City, I discovered that this place is reeking of corruption and graft everywhere!" Nan Feng's expression turned serious.
"Look at those city walls, look at those statues, look at that big golden throne—that's all blood and sweat from the common people!"
"Spirit Masters don't engage in production, so where do these things come from? Aren't they all extorted from commoners? Isn't this just the oppression of feudal landlords?"
"We've been traveling this whole way, and it's not like I haven't seen the state of the commoners' villages. There are plenty of people so poor they can't even afford a meal."
"Do you really think a group of commoners who can't even fill their stomachs are willingly handing over the fruits of their meager labor?"
"Isn't this just a fucking hegemony born from their own martial strength!"
"As the head of the Martial Soul Hall, isn't Qian Xunji the very representative of the feudal landlord hegemonic class? If we want to kill him, aren't we just fighting against feudalism, against landlords, and against hegemony?"
"Of course, considering your background, your decision to oppose the Martial Soul Hall is a bit ungrateful, so I call it: the League of the Unrighteous!"
"..."
"And what happens after we've finished opposing them?" Bibi Dong asked with a strange look in her eyes.
"Then, naturally, we take over for this damn feudal landlord hegemonic class and enjoy it ourselves!" Nan Feng said.
"After all, if I don't exploit them, someone else will, or they might even exploit themselves."
"Since exploitation and oppression won't disappear, rather than letting others benefit, we might as well enjoy it ourselves first."
"Don't you agree?"
"..." Bibi Dong.
I knew you little brat wouldn't have anything good to say!
