Qian Xunji Must Have Lost His Mind!

Bibi Dong had never imagined that one day Qian Xunji would become so ferocious.

She felt like a tiny boat adrift on a sea whipped up by violent storms, liable to capsize and leave her unconscious at any moment.

But to win Qian Xunji's trust, she couldn't say no. She could only do everything in her power to please him, even if it meant passing out.

As for dying?

Bibi Dong knew full well that Qian Xunji would never let her die.

She knew him too well.

The storm raged on until late into the night.

Bibi Dong was completely exhausted.

She lay limp beside Qian Xunji.

As Qian Xunji twined his fingers through Bibi Dong's hair, he spoke slowly. "Dong'er, you've done well these past years. You bore me three daughters, and I've always seen that."

Bibi Dong was surprised. She hadn't expected Qian Xunji's attitude to change today, let alone for him to praise her.

A slap followed by a sweet date?

Too bad she was no longer that innocent girl.

She wouldn't fall for Qian Xunji's tricks.

Still, she had to keep up the act. With a smile, Bibi Dong said, "Making Teacher happy is the greatest joy in Dong'er's life."

"Dong'er, I've been thinking of letting you leave the Secret Chamber. These years have been hard on you, being kept in this place without daylight."

"I'm sure the lessons you've learned over the years have made you understand your mistakes. You won't make them again."

"Teacher, y-you mean you're letting me leave the Secret Chamber?" The good news came so suddenly that Bibi Dong was caught off guard. She was afraid this was only a passing whim of Qian Xunji's, nothing but a beautiful dream.

Leaving the Secret Chamber was what she had dreamed of more than anything!

"Dong'er, you don't want to leave?" Qian Xunji asked in return.

That left Bibi Dong at a loss. She couldn't shake the feeling that Qian Xunji had some ulterior motive, but for the chance to leave, she decided to give it a try.

Anxiously, she said, "Dong'er will do whatever Teacher says. If Teacher wants me to leave, I'll leave. If Teacher wants me to stay, I'll stay."

"Dong'er, come on. I'm not teasing you this time. You should leave this place and go see your three daughters."

"They have the right to know what happened back then." Qian Xunji gazed at the wall, his eyes distant. If he wanted to claim the Rakshasa God, some sacrifices had to be made, didn't they?

As for how things would turn out, that would depend on the three girls' own choices in the future—and on how clever they were.

He had no need to worry about Qian Renxue.

During the year he had been away, something had changed in Qian Renxue. Her soul had been touched by divinity, causing it to transform in the direction of a divine soul.

She also carried a faint trace of hatred.

But that hatred wasn't directed at him. It was aimed at Bibi Dong.

Qian Xunji had guessed at a possibility, but he still needed to confirm it in secret.

Of course, he hadn't pressed her for answers.

If Qian Renxue wanted to tell him, she would come clean on her own.

As for how he could see through everything, that was naturally because he had become a Deity.

The Deities in the Divine Realm had nothing to worry about. Detecting the difference required painstaking scrutiny; they would only notice it if they examined her up close.

They would simply attribute Qian Renxue's transformation into a divine soul to the Angel God's blessing.

"Teacher, I'm so moved that you can trust Dong'er again. I could almost cry."

"Don't worry, Teacher. I won't make the same mistakes again. I'll do my best to be a good mother to Xiao Xue, Xiao Xia, and Xiao Hui—and your obedient woman."

Hearing that Qian Xunji really intended to let her out, Bibi Dong became incoherent with excitement. Her heart was practically soaring:

Hahaha, Qian Xunji is finally letting me leave this wretched place.

He must have lost his mind!

He even wants me to get close to Qian Renxue, Qian Renxia, and Qian Renhui, and become their mother.

In his dreams!

I'd sooner see those three little brats dead!

In Bibi Dong's eyes, Qian Renxue, Qian Renxia, and Qian Renhui were the stains on her life.

She should have had children with Xiao Gang. That was the path she was meant to take!

But then again, meeting those three little brats would give her an opportunity.

After all, to become the Rakshasa God, she had to begin the Rakshasa God Trial—and to begin it, she had to devour someone blessed by the Six-Winged Angel.

Bibi Dong had already given up on considering Qian Daoliu and Qian Xunji. Both were Limit Douluo, far beyond what she could scheme against right now.

The only people she could target at present were Qian Renxue, Qian Renxia, and Qian Renhui.

At least for now, she could be sure Qian Renxue had awakened the Six-Winged Angel.

As for the other two, she would have to investigate after leaving the Secret Chamber.

If Leng Lingyuan hadn't entered the picture, Qian Renxue would have been the easiest to scheme against. But with Leng Lingyuan around, she would have to choose the one most likely to fall for her schemes.

Xiao Gang, we'll see each other again soon. Are you still in Spirit City?

Bibi Dong pondered as she followed Qian Xunji out of the Underground Palace.

Eleven years of oppression, torment, and hatred had already transformed Bibi Dong's heart.

Even though, in her previous life, she had felt she owed Qian Renxue something.

And her memories of that previous life weren't complete.

Even today, she still couldn't remember how she had died in her previous life.

Spirit City, Pope Palace.

The sun had just risen.

Bibi Dong stood by the window, gazing blankly at the sun outside.

She hadn't basked in sunlight or breathed fresh air for eleven years.

How overwhelmingly nostalgic it felt!

She swore she would be careful in everything she did from now on—careful, and then more careful still.

She didn't want to return to the Secret Chamber.

Leng Lingyuan had already gotten up. After all, she was a Super Douluo. Though yesterday she hadn't fared much better than Xiao Rou and Xue Ying, her recovery far surpassed theirs.

Remembering what she had experienced yesterday, her cheeks flushed faintly. She had reached a peak unlike anything she had ever known.

But when she saw Bibi Dong, she was filled with confusion. Why did my husband let her out?

Leng Lingyuan walked over to Qian Xunji, pulled him away from Bibi Dong, and asked, "Husband, why did you let Bibi Dong out?"

Qian Xunji took Leng Lingyuan's right hand and patted it gently. "Ling Yuan, don't worry. I know what I'm doing. Nothing will go wrong, and I won't let anything happen to any of us."

"How are we going to tell Xiao Xue, Xiao Xia, and Xiao Hui about Bibi Dong?"

"Bibi Dong is bound to interact with them," Leng Lingyuan asked again.

"I'll tell them the truth. I think they'll understand. And Bibi Dong has promised me she'll give Xiao Xue, Xiao Xia, and Xiao Hui a reasonable explanation."

"Besides, we've been the ones looking after Xiao Xue, Xiao Xia, and Xiao Hui all these years. To them, Bibi Dong is nothing more than an outsider."

"Even if they're related by blood."

"I also need them to make a choice. If the three little ones still stand with us, I naturally won't let anything happen to any of them."

"If they choose Bibi Dong, then I can't be blamed. It'll be their own choice, and I can't force them." Qian Xunji knew full well that Bibi Dong had no other options. If she wanted to become the Rakshasa God, she could only target the three little ones.

As he had said before, claiming the Rakshasa God meant making a choice.

It was their choice, not something Qian Xunji was forcing them to make.

Leng Lingyuan immediately understood that Qian Xunji had a plan—and a grand one at that.

She stopped trying to dissuade him.

Bibi Dong continued basking in the sunlight she had missed for so long. Naturally, she knew Leng Lingyuan had pulled Qian Xunji aside to persuade him to lock her back in the Secret Chamber.

Too bad for her, though: before leaving the Secret Chamber, Bibi Dong had already gotten Qian Xunji's promise.

There was no chance she would be sent back.

No matter how much Leng Lingyuan tried to persuade him.

"Husband, I can't win this argument with you. Fine, we'll do it your way." Leng Lingyuan's words carried a hint of complaint, and Bibi Dong heard them clearly.

Facing the sun, Bibi Dong smiled like a victor.

"Ling Yuan, come on. The three little ones are all at Saintess Hall right now. Let's take Bibi Dong over so she can get to know them."

Qian Xunji and Leng Lingyuan walked toward Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong understood that the real show was about to begin. Let's see which of them would be easiest to manipulate.
