Qian Renxue took a deep breath as she read Bai Tu's message, her expression complicated.
[Bai Tu: Fine, if Bibi Dong doesn't want me to say anything, I'll keep it to myself for now.]
[Bai Tu: As for Wang Dong, typing is exhausting. I'll leave it for now.]
[Wang Dong: Don't you just have to think it and send it?]
[Qian Renxue: When are you coming to see me? I want to have a proper talk with you.]
[Bai Tu: Soon, soon. I figure Tang San and the others will be heading into the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt Soul Beasts in a few days.]
[Bai Tu: After that, Yu Xiaogang will go to Shrek.]
[Bai Tu: Once I've dealt with Yu Xiaogang and the Soul Beast traitors, I'll come see you.]
[Bibi Dong: Xiao Gang...]
[Ah Yin: Young Master, Ah Yin has already turned over a new leaf!]
[Wang Dong: Grandma?]
[Bai Tu: I wasn't talking about you. I meant a little rabbit. By the way, why does it feel like Ah Yin recovered emotionally so quickly?]
[Zi JI: In response, Young Master: after my training, the Blue Silver Emperor learned about Tang San and cried out once. After that, she stopped paying attention to him.]
[Ah Yin: ...]
[Ah Yin: Couldn't it be that I simply saw the light?]
[Bai Tu: I'm laughing.]
[Qian Renxue: Hehe~]
[Qian Renxue: @Zi JI, can you train human lovesick fools?]
[Bibi Dong: You insolent brat!]
[Qian Renxue: I didn't say you. Why are you jumping in?]
[Zi JI: It's simple. I used Xiao Lan to make Ah Yin list thirty of Tang Hao's flaws.]
[Zi JI: Then I gave her a list of a hundred virtues belonging to Young Master and the Lord.]
[Zi JI: After that, I had her copy those lists a hundred times every day.]
[Zi JI: Oh, and every day I also used Xiao Lan to threaten her into saying "I love Young Master most" a thousand times.]
[Zi JI: Now she seems to care much less about the Tang family.]
[Ah Yin: ...]
[Ah Yin: It wasn't a threat. I chose to follow Young Master of my own free will.]
[Bai Tu: Amazing! @Sister Zi JI!]
Bai Tu sighed as he looked at the chat. He hadn't even gotten started on the Seven Treasure Pagoda or Big Milk Cat, and over on Zi JI's side, Ah Yin had already been trained into a loyal goofball of his.
[Qian Renxue: Anyway, since you've decided to go after Tang San, does that mean the future of me and that woman has changed?]
[Bai Tu: Obviously!]
[Wang Dong: Although I have complicated feelings about this Tang San, I still want to ask: will I disappear after Tang San dies?]
Wang Dong felt conflicted. She really wanted to know about all the things Bai Tu had mentioned happening.
But she didn't know why, Bai Tu had...
[Wang Dong: Image]
[Wang Dong: Is this okay?]
[Bai Tu: You probably won't disappear... I think. After all, Xiao Wu in this world has already had two children. You haven't suddenly gained two older brothers, have you?]
Bai Tu answered uncertainly.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, he used Tang Hao as a stepping stone to sense what was happening at Shrek again.
Tang San's fortune hadn't changed much, while the others still had some remnants of theirs.
Oscar's, of course, had vanished completely.
"Is it because Tang San hasn't leveled up, so Propagation hasn't begun?"
"And the others still have faith in Yu Xiaogang, figuring they might as well let a dying horse be treated like a living one, so they haven't given up yet?"
"Did Dai Mubai just change his sexual orientation?"
Bai Tu's expression turned strange.
Bai Tu looked at Oscar.
There was nothing he could do. Oscar, you weren't a pretty girl, for one thing, and you'd sided with Tang San, for another.
Since you were no longer useful...
Bai Tu wasn't some pervert who enjoyed torturing people, either!
He summoned his second tail directly—Tail of Fate!
Bai Tu's amber eyes flickered faintly as he locked onto the future in this timeline where Oscar would soon starve to death.
Silver light shone from Bai Tu's tail, making the hotel room look all the more mysterious and profound.
"What are you doing now?"
Gu Yuena grabbed Bai Tu's tail after he finished and tucked it against her belly like a hot-water bottle.
"So, basically, this and that."
Bai Tu's tail playfully tickled Gu Yuena.
"If it's so simple, why not just make everyone else take a bite too?"
"Then you could collect them all at once, couldn't you?"
Gu Yuena looked at Bai Tu curiously.
Kind-hearted Bi Ji covered her face with the quilt. The two of them dared to say it, but she didn't dare to listen!
"Oh, I see~"
Bai Tu looked a little conflicted.
"Forget it."
Bai Tu shook his head. He was already practically invincible; what he lacked was time to grow. If he killed Tang San and the others too early, what would he have left to do?
Besides, with Dai Mubai's personality, eating it might make him even more perverted.
Compared to simply killing Tang San, watching several Tang Sans tell each other they deserved to die in a few days seemed more interesting.
"Suit yourself. Let me hold you."
Gu Yuena wrapped her arms around Bai Tu and lazily closed her eyes again.
Bai Tu opened the Chat Group again out of boredom, still feeling as if he'd forgotten something.
[Wang Dong: The way you put it, I'm not even sure whether I have any older brothers.]
[Bai Tu: Look on the bright side. Think about it—you wouldn't gain anything by not looking on the bright side!]
[Wang Dong: Thanks for that!]
[Bai Tu: Exclusive red packet for Gu Yuena (Douluo Dalu II)]
[Bai Tu: Bring the Auspicious Beast into the group too. Dongqiu belongs together!]
[Gu Yuena (Douluo Dalu II): Got it. I'll lie down for a bit longer, then go find her.]
[Qian Renxue: How many of those invitation Beacons do you still have? There should be two, right?]
Qian Renxue thought it over. There should have been three times when he hadn't invited anyone, and then he'd given one to Gu Yuena (Douluo Dalu II).
[Bai Tu: Haha~ Guess.]
[Bai Tu: Here's a little secret. Not long ago, I realized how stupid I was. Why did I have to wait until the Chat Group invited a newcomer before using Propagation?]
[Bai Tu: I can just use Propagation on the ones I already have!]
[Bibi Dong: !!!]
[Bibi Dong: You mean you can invite people whenever you want now??]
[Qian Renxue: You've got to be cheating!]
[Bai Tu: It's not that simple. I have to wait for the Beacons I have to mature to a certain point before they can Propagate another one.]
[Bai Tu: Otherwise, there won't be enough energy for Propagation!]
Bai Tu thought it over. The Chat Group's true form was nothing more than a tiny, inconsequential Contact authority. What let it connect to all the worlds was the Origin that received its reports.
The general idea was:
Chat Group: Boss, I've leveled up again and saved up a lot of energy for you. Open another world for me!
Origin: Approved!
Bai Tu's current role was more like a partner the Chat Group had brought aboard.
The Beacons he had Propagated from the Chat Group were like children he'd had with it.
Once the children grew up and had children of their own, Bai Tu could obtain a steady, endless supply of Beacons!
As he'd said, his ability was just too incredible.
He'd had his way with the child of the Contact Origin—the Chat Group—then used his and the Chat Group's child to bind the Chat Group, and finally set out to inherit the Origin's family business!
Bai Tu couldn't understand how a cute little fox like himself could be so incredible!
By rights, shouldn't he have been all about beauty?
