Bibi Dong is Furious

"Your Holiness, is there a reason you summoned me?"

Lin Yue boldly sized up Bibi Dong before him, then asked indifferently.

He was grateful for the cultivation provided by Martial Soul Hall, but that did not include Bibi Dong.

After all, it was the Grand Elder Qian Daoliu who had made the final decision to continue investing in him.

As for this woman, Bibi Dong, she had looked down on him back then, viewing him as a freakish genius who possessed cultivation but lacked any real offensive capability.

It was also Bibi Dong who had originally proposed cutting off his resources.

Still, one had to admit, this woman before him was truly top-tier!

That figure, that temperament, that high-and-mighty, arrogant air—it really made one want to pin her down and ravage her.

Bibi Dong sensed Lin Yue's gaze and felt a surge of displeasure; had he become so arrogant just because he had broken through to the Title Douluo realm?

Did he think that just because he had entered the Elder Hall, he no longer needed to show her respect?

"Lin Yue, I am asking you!"

"Your spatial dimension should have contained quite a few soul beasts, shouldn't it? Are those soul beasts still there?"

However, Bibi Dong ignored his impolite gaze for the moment, choosing instead to inquire directly about the soul beasts.

"They are gone. After all the soul beasts outside vanished, the ones inside my space disappeared along with them."

Lin Yue gave a faint smile, flatly denying that he still possessed any soul beasts.

He had already guessed that Bibi Dong was looking for him regarding the soul beasts the moment he arrived.

Among the higher-ups of Martial Soul Hall, anyone who knew of his existence would surely think of him after the soul beasts disappeared.

He had been surprised that no one had come looking for him when he left earlier; he had even thought something was wrong with their brains!

It seemed that wasn't the case; they were just a bit slow to react.

"What did you say? The soul beasts in your space have all vanished as well?"

"How is that possible?"

"How could the soul beasts inside your space disappear for no reason? Are you lying to This Seat?"

Bibi Dong was shocked and furious upon hearing Lin Yue's words.

She had been full of anticipation; if Lin Yue had even two soul beasts around fifty thousand years old in his space, she could save ten years of cultivation time.

"Your Holiness, it is the truth!"

"I have no idea how those soul beasts disappeared either!"

Lin Yue didn't say much more, simply sticking to his story that he had no soul beasts left and didn't know why they were gone.

Bibi Dong's expression turned icy upon hearing his reply, yet she could do nothing to him.

She felt that it was highly likely the soul beasts were still in his space.

But since Lin Yue insisted they were gone, she had no way to force the issue.

"Lin Yue, you should know that This Seat possesses Twin Martial Souls. My second martial soul still requires two soul rings, and this is of great importance to This Seat!"

"This Seat is willing to trade two spirit bones for the two soul beasts with the highest age in your possession. How about it?"

After taking a deep breath, Bibi Dong began to lay out her offer.

"Two spirit bones!"

Lin Yue's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Bibi Dong felt a surge of joy; it seemed that one really did have to use benefits to get results!

"I am sorry, Your Holiness, I would very much like those two spirit bones, but there truly are no soul beasts left in my space!"

However, Lin Yue's next words immediately dashed her hopes.

"There are really no soul beasts left?"

Bibi Dong stared at Lin Yue, and for some reason, she simply did not believe his words.

"Really!"

But since Lin Yue persisted in his denial, she was left with no options.

"Fine, since you have no soul beasts, you may leave!"

Bibi Dong waved her hand in annoyance, signaling for Lin Yue to get lost.

"Your Holiness, then I shall take my leave!"

Lin Yue smiled slightly, then turned and walked away.

"This Lin Yue..."

Bibi Dong watched Lin Yue's retreating figure, her teeth itching with hatred.

She didn't know why, but she had a distinct feeling that Lin Yue still had the soul beasts, but simply didn't want to give them to her.

As Bibi Dong watched his back, her gaze gradually turned somewhat dangerous.

Since you are unwilling to hand it over voluntarily, then do not blame This Seat.

"Tsk tsk, as expected of Bibi Dong, she truly is a top-tier prize!"

As for Lin Yue, who had already left, he did not know that Bibi Dong was thinking of him, but he was certainly thinking of her.

It was just that this woman was rather difficult to conquer.

It was almost impossible to win her over through normal means.

If only Bibi Dong were a Soul Beast; then Lin Yue could find a way to defeat her and tame her directly through the system.

Just like he did with Ah Yin before!

"Elder Lin Yue! This old man is waiting for you at the Worship Hall. Come over here!"

Just then, a voice echoed in Lin Yue's ears.

It came from the direction of the Worship Hall, transmitted directly into Lin Yue's consciousness.

It was the voice of the Great Elder, Qian Daoliu.

"Qian Daoliu, he must be here for the Soul Beasts as well, right?"

Lin Yue did not even need to think to know that Qian Daoliu had also come for the Soul Beasts.

However, Qian Daoliu was not asking for a Soul Beast for himself, but for Qian Renxue, who was still lurking within the Heaven Dou Empire.

Swish~

Lin Yue's figure flashed, and he quickly flew toward the direction of the Worship Hall.

"Qian Daoliu!"

Bibi Dong watched Lin Yue's retreating figure as he headed toward the Worship Hall, her expression shifting slightly once more.

"I would like to see whether you truly have no more Soul Beasts, or if you simply do not wish to give them to me!"

Bibi Dong let out a cold snort.

There was no need to guess why Qian Daoliu had summoned Lin Yue; it was for that daughter of hers.

Instead of being angry, she actually felt a sense of joy.

Based on her understanding, Qian Renxue should be breaking through to level 70 very soon. When that time came, she would have plenty of ways to find out exactly what Qian Renxue's seventh soul ring was.

If it were not a white soul ring, then it must have been provided to Qian Daoliu by Lin Yue.

When that time came, she would like to see how Lin Yue could possibly deny it.

"Great Elder!"

Lin Yue soon arrived at the Worship Hall and met the handsome old man, Qian Daoliu.

Looking at Qian Daoliu's appearance, it was truly hard to believe that the man was an old geezer.

"Elder Lin Yue, are those Soul Beasts in your space still there?"

Qian Daoliu nodded at Lin Yue and spoke directly.

"Great Elder, there are indeed quite a few Soul Beasts in my space, including some with over ten thousand years of cultivation."

Facing Qian Daoliu, Lin Yue did not hide anything and stated it plainly.

"Good, good! As long as those Soul Beasts are still there!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu was immediately delighted.

"Elder Lin Yue, this old man has a mission he wishes to entrust to you, one that requires your completion."

Qian Daoliu did not immediately ask Lin Yue for the Soul Beasts, but instead began to arrange a task for him.

Lin Yue was somewhat surprised that Qian Daoliu had only inquired about the Soul Beasts without asking for them outright.

"Please speak, Great Elder. I will certainly do my best to complete it."

Lin Yue did not refuse.

At the same time, he was very curious to know what Qian Daoliu wanted him to do.

"This old man wants you to make a trip to the Heaven Dou Empire to assist my granddaughter, Qian Renxue, in completing her mission."
