[Snow Empress: No!]
[Snow Empress: No! Bing'er is still in that world!]
Snow Empress spoke anxiously. That Ice Empress might not be her own Ice Empress, but she was still Ice Empress, no matter how you looked at it!
[Ice Empress: What does she mean? @Snow Empress, is she saying that if she does this, I'll go crazy and start having little scorpions in the future?]
[Meng Hongchen: I think so. I'm a local! I refuse!]
[Gu Yuena: I refuse too.]
[Wang Qiu'er: I don't understand, I don't understand. I'll just listen to my lord.]
[Wang Dong: Can I fuse this power only with Shrek or the Clear Sky Sect? @Bai Tu]
[Bai Tu: If you have control like mine, you can give it a try.]
[Bai Tu: Even I can't guarantee that Propagation will stay entirely in one place.]
[Bai Tu: If someone somewhere else accidentally embarks on the path of Propagation, then the River of Propagation Path will most likely leave a tributary where they are.]
[Bai Tu: So even I couldn't completely control a region and then leave it. For the sake of stability, I'd have to stay there.]
[Wang Dong: Does this mean I really can't get revenge now?]
Wang Dong sat aggrievedly in the carriage seat.
Her belly had already begun to swell a little.
She'd clearly gone and used it on herself in advance!
[Bai Tu: You've already got the makings of a wish-fulfillment story. You latched onto a future big shot right from the start, and once they've grown up, they can solve your problems with a wave of their hand.]
[Bai Tu: Little girl, why the rush?~]
[Wang Dong: But I've already used Propagation on myself.]
[Bai Tu: 6]
[Meng Hongchen: 6]
[Bai Tu: What are you laughing at? When I'm in the mood, I'll come chat with you another day. According to unofficial historical accounts, Wang Dong became Meng Hongchen's husband.]
[Meng Hongchen: !!!]
[Wang Dong: ???]
[Bai Tu: You can inject Propagation into a person or an object at random. That way, it basically won't spread. @Wang Dong]
Bai Tu sent that last message and ran, logging off without another word while the two of them bombarded the chat with question marks.
"Next up, I'll find our Nine Treasure Pagoda a companion!"
Bai Tu wrapped his arms around Gu Yuena's waist.
Gu Yuena shot Bai Tu an exasperated look. She'd been happily lurking and watching the drama, and he'd suddenly cut it off.
Gu Yuena reached out, took Bai Tu's and Bi Ji's hands, and appeared near the Crown Prince Residence in Heaven Dou City.
Mwah!
Bai Tu gratefully planted a kiss on Gu Yuena.
Lao Gu really was the best!
This way of getting around was so convenient!
"Hmph~"
"You can handle it yourself, right?"
Gu Yuena folded her arms, the corners of her mouth lifting.
"Then I'll go by myself."
From Gu Yuena's words, Bai Tu could tell she probably didn't want to negotiate with him.
"Then I'll go back with Bi Ji first."
Gu Yuena leaned forward, bringing her lips close to Bai Tu's ear.
"Tonight, I'll have Bi Ji wear white stockings for you~"
"Hiss~"
Bai Tu sucked in a sharp breath as Gu Yuena's warm breath brushed his earlobe.
Bi Ji shyly tucked her hair behind her ear. My lord, really—couldn't she have used her soul power to muffle her voice a little?
"Nana wants some too~"
Bai Tu pressed his cheek against Gu Yuena's.
"Mmm..."
Gu Yuena chuckled. She raised both hands to steady Bai Tu's head, then leaned in close.
"We're off~"
Gu Yuena took two steps back, breathing a little heavily, then took Bi Ji with her and vanished on the spot.
Bai Tu felt a little dejected, but he still forced himself to perk up and walked into the Crown Prince Residence.
The reception hall of Xue Qinghe's Crown Prince Residence...
Following a servant's directions inside, Bai Tu saw Xue Qinghe seated in the place of honor.
Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo sat to one side, along with the child in Sword Douluo's arms.
"Interesting. You've got the nerve to come here and die?"
Bai Tu put on a haughty air and addressed the three coldly.
"Your Excellency, please don't misunderstand!"
Ning Fengzhi stood up.
"I came here this time to apologize to Your Excellency. Sword Douluo mistakenly believed that Your Excellency had something to do with my daughter's disappearance, and that's why..."
Ning Fengzhi looked deeply apologetic.
Bai Tu said nothing.
He wondered whether it was worth wasting his breath on these people. Then he thought of Ning Rongrong, who was still in her confinement period...
Bai Tu shook his head. In the end, he owed her some consideration.
"Ning Fengzhi, I can evolve your martial soul."
"In exchange, I want Ning Rongrong's mother."
Bai Tu spoke casually. He couldn't be bothered to spar with Ning Fengzhi in words. The man was the sort he could kill with one hand.
A jade box appeared in his hand, and he placed it directly on the table.
Ning Fengzhi's eyes widened, and he couldn't help clenching his fists.
Hearing that his martial soul could evolve had certainly excited him, but this bastard was truly shameless!
Ning Fengzhi's expression darkened and wavered. If Qinghe and the two Douluo weren't here, he would surely have agreed, then found an excuse to send Xiao Ya over.
But if he backed down in front of everyone here...
"Absolutely not!"
Ning Fengzhi stared at Bai Tu, his heart practically bleeding.
"Does this mean Rongrong really is in your hands?"
Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath.
"If you won't make the deal, fine. Goodbye."
Bai Tu turned to leave.
"Wait!"
Ning Fengzhi froze. He hurriedly picked up the jade box Bai Tu had placed on the table, stepped forward, and patted Bai Tu on the shoulder.
"Bold of you!"
Bai Tu whipped around, a chill gleaming in his eyes!
"I came here in good faith to make a deal, and you want to keep me here, kill me, and take my treasure!"
"Enough talk. Let's settle this with our fists!"
"Arhat Heaven-Turning Seal!"
A flash of golden light flickered in Bai Tu's eyes!
A golden palm seal appeared in his hand!
If Gu Yuena had been there, she would've been utterly speechless. Wasn't that just control over the gold element?
Ning Fengzhi froze again, watching helplessly as Bai Tu slapped him!
"Bastard! What are you doing?!"
Bone Douluo Gu Rong's eyes nearly popped out of his head. He'd looked away for one moment, and his own sect master had been blasted away in a burst of blood!
How was he supposed to explain this to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's elders?
"And you two! Titled Douluo! So you really did have designs on me!"
Bai Tu muttered, This is bad!
He'd made the taboo mistake of showing off his wealth in public!
"Go to hell!"
Gu Rong flashed straight to Bai Tu's side!
A Bone Dragon slashed at Bai Tu with its sharp claws!
"Damn it! I knew you were up to no good! For Rongrong's sake, I'd meant to let you off!"
A cold glint flashed in Bai Tu's eyes. You might have two Titled Douluo!
But I, Bai Tu, am no pushover!
"Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms!"
"Iron Fox Heavy Breaking Fist!"
Golden palm and fist prints flew toward Gu Rong and Chen Xin, who was still stunned!
Pfft! Pfft!
Two clouds of blood burst open. Bai Tu casually caught the child as Chen Xin dropped him.
"Phew, that was close. They even tried to use the child to threaten me."
Bai Tu let out a quiet sigh of relief. He'd nearly been done in by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's dirty tricks.
Good thing he'd been one step ahead.
And since they'd struck first, on top of the pressure from two Titled Douluo, he naturally couldn't afford to spare the two of them for Rongrong's sake.
Bai Tu shook his head helplessly.
"You..."
Qian Renxue, who had somehow changed back to her original form, looked at Bai Tu with an indescribable expression.
She opened the jade box Ning Fengzhi had dropped, only to find it completely empty.
