Chrysanthemum Elder's Warning

Wang Jingyu unconsciously swallowed as he watched her shy demeanor. He summoned the Diary System and grumbled internally.

What's going on? What did Dong'er mean by that?

She feels safe with me by her side. Isn't that practically a confession?

Could it be that this girl has fallen for me? Is it because we kissed?

Should I agree or not? This is so complicated.

Bullshit, what's there to be conflicted about? Why wouldn't I agree? Perfect—I can take a trip to Spirit City and look around.

Too bad I'm not strong enough yet. I can't beat that bastard Qian Xunji.

Otherwise, I'd go beat Qian Xunji up every other day and grind him against a wall. That'd be awesome.

"Jingyu, don't you want to? If you don't, then forget it. I'll go back by myself..."

Bibi Dong's eyes dimmed, and she wore a disappointed expression.

"No, don't misunderstand. It's not that I don't want to. I happen to want to visit Spirit City too. As the sacred land of soul masters on Douluo Continent, how could I not go take a look?"

Wang Jingyu did not even have time to check the rewards from the system. He repeatedly shook his head at Bibi Dong, wearing a gentle smile.

"That's wonderful. Thank you."

Bibi Dong immediately broke into a delighted smile, leaned forward, and lightly kissed Wang Jingyu on the cheek.

This time, Wang Jingyu finally understood. Bibi Dong really had fallen for him.

In the original story, this should have been the period when her relationship with Yu Xiaogang was rapidly heating up.

Now that she loathed Yu Xiaogang, it meant Wang Jingyu might replace him and become Bibi Dong's new lover.

Fuck...

For some reason, Wang Jingyu had a faintly ominous feeling in his heart.

He suspected that the tragic fate that had befallen Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong in the original story might instead happen to him and Bibi Dong.

If that truly happened, he could not help asking himself whether he would be able to save Bibi Dong from Qian Xunji, the "Secret Chamber Douluo."

There were still two years left. In the original story, Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong's relationship had been discovered by Qian Xunji after they had been together for two years!

To keep Bibi Dong by his side, Qian Xunji had imprisoned her in a secret chamber, forced her to separate from Yu Xiaogang, drugged her, and violated her.

In other words, judging by the original timeline, starting from now—

Wang Jingyu had two years to grow stronger. But in only two short years, could he change such a fate?

After receiving Wang Jingyu's promise, Bibi Dong beamed. She stretched lazily and said to Ju Douluo beside her, "Chrysanthemum Elder, Jingyu and I are going shopping first. Stay here and wait for the others. They're fighting far too slowly. I can't be bothered to keep waiting."

"Going shopping? Just the two of you?"

Ju Douluo glanced at Wang Jingyu and asked hesitantly.

By now, he knew that Bibi Dong and Wang Jingyu's relationship was no longer ordinary.

As far as he was concerned, he naturally had no objections to the two of them being together.

Especially since Wang Jingyu was only twenty-one years old yet already possessed soul power at rank 49. Moreover, after concealing his aura, even Ju Douluo could not see through him.

What Ju Douluo valued most was Wang Jingyu's illusion technique. He had actually been dragged into an illusion without realizing it.

Thus, Ju Douluo believed Wang Jingyu was qualified to be with Bibi Dong.

No matter what, he was far superior to that worthless trash from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Ju Douluo believed that perhaps through Bibi Dong, they could bring Wang Jingyu under Spirit Hall's banner.

In the future, Spirit Hall would surely gain another fierce general. Of course, that would have to wait until he returned to Spirit Hall and reported to the Pope before further plans could be made.

At present, Bibi Dong and Wang Jingyu were showing signs of becoming lovers.

Therefore, he felt there were some things he had to remind Wang Jingyu about.

Ju Douluo grabbed Wang Jingyu's arm and pulled him aside, speaking in a low voice. "Hey, brat, I need to warn you about a few things. I won't interfere with you and the Saintess being together, but I hope you remember this.

"If you don't want to die, try not to touch her.

"At least until she becomes Pope, don't do anything improper with her. Otherwise, I'm afraid no one will be able to save you."

"Uh..."

Wang Jingyu shot Ju Douluo a glance. He had not expected this guy to be so gossipy.

Wang Jingyu also knew that Ju Douluo was reminding him out of kindness. After all, Bibi Dong held an extremely noble status throughout Spirit Hall.

"Alright, no problem. I'm not that lustful a man."

Wang Jingyu nodded, giving Ju Douluo a reassuring answer.

However, Wang Jingyu's plan was to first keep Qian Xunji steady and buy himself enough time to grow.

As long as he had enough time, let alone a mere rank 95 Qian Xunji, even rank 99 Qian Daoliu would not be worth his attention.

The two walked shoulder to shoulder out of the Great Soul Arena, only to see Yu Xiaogang lying abandoned by the roadside, surrounded by passersby pointing and whispering.

"Did you hear? That man was kissing everyone he saw inside the Great Soul Arena just now. It was absolutely disgusting."

"Kissing everyone he saw? Hmph, that's not even the worst of it. I heard he was all over a very fat woman and even tore off her clothes."

"Look at you lot, acting like you've seen something. Let me tell you—just now, that man was hugging a male guard and shouting those three words... It nearly blinded me."

The gossiping spectators grew more outrageous with every word, as though they had seen and heard it all themselves. Their imitations were vividly convincing.

Everyone watching could not help feeling a chill run down their spines.

Yu Xiaogang seemed deaf to it all. He raised his eyes and glanced toward Wang Jingyu and Bibi Dong at the exit.

When he saw the two of them strolling out of the Great Soul Arena, Yu Xiaogang seemed to have spotted his last lifeline. He scrambled toward Bibi Dong on all fours.

"Dong'er, Dong'er, listen to my explanation. I'm not that kind of person. I really am not..."

Wang Jingyu stepped in front of Bibi Dong and kicked Yu Xiaogang as he charged over.

"Get lost, pervert. Don't touch Dong'er with those filthy hands. You may not think you're dirty, but everyone else does."

Yu Xiaogang was kicked flat onto his back, but he completely ignored it and crawled over again, trying to grab Bibi Dong's legs.

"Dong'er, I'm really not that kind of person. I must have suffered some kind of mental attack. Just now, I saw so many versions of you, and they were..."

Bibi Dong looked down at Yu Xiaogang with undisguised disgust.

"What were they doing to you? Flaunting themselves at you? Or fawning all over you? So in your eyes, I'm that kind of shameless woman."

Bibi Dong grew more and more furious, her expression filled with utter disappointment in Yu Xiaogang.

"Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaogang, you've truly disappointed me. I never want to see you again."

After saying that, Bibi Dong turned and left, not giving him any chance to explain. Yu Xiaogang was overwhelmed with guilt.

Seeing this, Wang Jingyu could barely keep from laughing. Dong'er had been ruthless enough with Yu Xiaogang.
