Qian Renxue could no longer stand it. She rose to her feet and snapped, "That's enough!"

A son insulting his father—Xiao Chenlong really was being rather immoral.

"Can't take it anymore? You should know yourself that Bibi Dong was forced to give birth to you. You were the stain on her entire life.

Her hatred for you was only slightly less than her hatred for Qian Xunjie. Yet you still dreamed of receiving her maternal love? How ridiculous."

"Shut up!"

"Cough, cough. Holy Son, you'd better stop attacking Xiao Xue."

"Second Worship, I think it would be better to make everything clear at once. The first time is always like this. Endure it, and it'll pass."

Golden Crocodile Douluo's expression turned strange, while Qian Renxue's face reddened even more.

Xiao Chenlong also realized that his words had sounded ambiguous, but he acted as though nothing had happened and handed Qian Renxue a newspaper he had prepared.

"Read this first. We'll talk after you're done."

After Qian Renxue finished reading, obvious confusion filled her eyes.

"The Saintess who fell in love with that trash Yu Xiaogang, even betrayed Spirit Hall by revealing its books and secrets to him, and finally wanted to elope with him... was really that woman?"

It was no wonder Qian Renxue was so confused. Bibi Dong had changed tremendously before and after.

In the beginning, she had merely been lovestruck. Later, she had completely turned into a madwoman.

"It's absolutely true. That's why Bibi Dong isn't worthy of sympathy at all.

If I were Qian Xunjie, since I had chosen to do it, I would have gone all the way. I absolutely wouldn't have given Bibi Dong any chance to leave that Secret Chamber.

Bibi Dong was indeed a peerless genius with Twin Martial Souls, but continuing to raise such an obvious ingrate would have been pure stupidity."

Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded repeatedly as well. Although Xiao Chenlong's words were rather harsh, he had not been wrong.

He had long seen that Qian Xunjie's personality was indecisive and overly cautious. He simply was not capable of getting things done.

If Qian Daoliu had not had only this one son, Qian Xunjie would never have been able to become Pope.

"You've gone off-topic, haven't you? Weren't we talking about why Grandfather was so tolerant of Bibi Dong?"

"Haven't we been talking about it all along? Teacher is a perfectionist who has always upheld the justice and glory of the angels. What your father did violated the justice of the angels, so Teacher feels guilty toward Bibi Dong."

"Yes, Elder Brother truly is that kind of person."

"Teacher's guilt toward Bibi Dong is only a small part of the reason. The more important reasons are the next two.

The first is you, Qian Renxue. Teacher does not want you to become an orphan who has lost both her father and mother.

That woman Bibi Dong indeed never fulfilled a mother's responsibilities, but she is still your biological mother."

"I don't have a mother like her. Since she refuses to acknowledge me, why should I acknowledge her? Between us, there is only the hatred of my father's murder."

"Very good. Then let's discuss the most crucial point: the Rakshasa God."

"The Rakshasa God?"

"That's right, the Evil God of Thoughts, the Rakshasa God! Bibi Dong is the Rakshasa God's inheritor.

Bibi Dong passed through the City of Slaughter. While obtaining Divine Slaughter's Domain, she also gained the Rakshasa God's recognition.

After finding an opportunity to kill Qian Xunjie, she formally began the Rakshasa God Trial."

"The Rakshasa God! Is that why Grandfather watched her devour Father with his own eyes?"

Qian Renxue lowered her head and spoke softly.

"With the Rakshasa God backing Bibi Dong, doesn't that mean we can't touch her at all?"

"It certainly won't be easy to kill her. Most deities value their inheritors greatly. If there is truly a life-or-death crisis, they would probably intervene to save her.

But if we merely remove Bibi Dong from the position of Pope and drive her out of Spirit Hall, that can still be done."

At that moment, someone knocked on the door. Then Salas's voice sounded from outside. "Your Highness the Holy Son, there is a letter from Elder Ju for you."

"Bring it in."

"Yes!"

After Salas delivered the letter, he withdrew.

Xiao Chenlong opened the letter, and a smile curled across his lips.

"Elder Ju has truly brought some good news."

"What is it? What did Little Chrysanthemum say?"

"Bibi Dong will be going soul hunting in a while. She probably wants to rapidly increase her strength by adding a Spirit Ring to her Second Spirit."

"That woman Bibi Dong is extremely ambitious. Ordinary Spirit Beasts probably won't satisfy her."

Xiao Chenlong looked at Qian Renxue then, his gaze full of amusement.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"If Bibi Dong leaves Spirit Hall, then the position of Spirit Hall's Pope will be vacant. If someone takes her place at that time, she will never need to return."

"You want me to return to Spirit City and directly take over the position of Pope? It's not impossible, but wouldn't that fail to convince everyone?"

"Of course it won't work if you use Qian Renxue's identity. But what if you use Bibi Dong's identity?

Your Disguise Spirit Bone is clearly so useful, yet you only use it to play spy games. What a waste."

"Good idea! In the end, Elder Brother still has the final say in Spirit Hall. As long as Elder Brother steps forward, whoever he says is Pope will be Pope.

Even if that woman Bibi Dong returns, she can only be an impostor."

"Exactly. That's the idea."

Qian Renxue's eyes lit up as well. She could practically see herself replacing Bibi Dong as Pope and pointing at Bibi Dong while calling her an impostor.

That scene would definitely be interesting.

Afterward, Golden Crocodile Douluo reported their discussed plan to Qian Daoliu, while Xiao Chenlong began cultivating on his own initiative. He was not far from breaking through to rank 60.

Several days later, Xiao Chenlong opened his eyes and withdrew from cultivation.

Six Green Spirit Rings had appeared beneath his feet.

At the same time, a White Horse leaped out of his sixth Spirit Ring. The moment it emerged, it let out a joyful neigh.

"The Horse Talisman's ability is healing. It can heal almost any injury. Heh, I wonder if it can turn a young married woman back into a young girl."

Xiao Chenlong merely thought about it. He would not actually test something like that.

Moreover, the Horse Talisman did not merely heal. More accurately, it restored things, so it was effective on inanimate objects as well.

Xiao Chenlong mounted the horse then. He had never ridden before, so now he could experience the feeling of galloping freely.

The White Horse was very fast, but its speed slowed once they reached the streets.

Xiao Chenlong was in no hurry. He simply proceeded at a leisurely pace toward Dugu Bo's home.

But at that moment, a little figure suddenly darted out and nearly got hit by the horse.

Xiao Chenlong found the little figure somewhat familiar, so he used telekinesis to lift the child before him.

Although the child was dressed like a beggar and had dust on her face, she clearly was not a real beggar.

"Oh, you're Ning Rongrong, aren't you? I even held you when you were little. You're still so young, yet you've already learned to run away from home? You truly are the Little Witch of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
