The two arrived outside Suotuo City's Great Soul Arena while chatting and laughing, only to find the entrance completely surrounded by a sea of people.
Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of curious eyes craned their necks to watch the scene within, as though they were watching a monkey show.
"What's going on? Why are so many people gathered at the entrance? Why isn't anyone going into the arena?"
Wang Jingyu could not help but grow curious as well. Was someone putting on an acrobatic show inside?
"I don't know. There weren't this many people when I left to find you just now. Who knows what happened."
Bibi Dong tilted her head in confusion, standing on tiptoe in an attempt to see what was happening inside.
But she was a woman, after all. Even with ten-centimeter heels, she was still not tall enough compared to most men.
So despite straining on tiptoe for quite a while, she could not make sense of anything.
Seeing her look like a curious child, Wang Jingyu took her hand and raised an eyebrow at her.
"Dong'er, do you want to squeeze in and take a look?"
Bibi Dong rolled her eyes irritably.
"Isn't that obvious? But it probably won't be easy. Can't you see that I can't even see inside while standing on tiptoe?"
A crooked smile appeared on Wang Jingyu's face as he gave her a mysterious grin.
"Watch me. I have a way."
Bibi Dong stared at him curiously, waiting to see what he would do next.
He took a bag from his storage space and tossed it toward an outer area where there were fewer people, silently chanting in his heart.
"Gold Release! Great Money-Throwing Technique!"
In an instant, hundreds upon thousands of Gold Soul Coins scattered from the bag, gleaming brilliantly in the air and nearly forming a golden rainbow across the sky.
The next moment, Wang Jingyu lowered his voice and added in a raspy, duck-like tone.
"Look! It's raining Gold Soul Coins!"
Some people immediately looked disdainful. How could there possibly be a rain of Gold Soul Coins?
Others instinctively looked up, only to be struck squarely on the head by falling coins.
"Holy shit, Gold Soul Coins! They really are Gold Soul Coins!"
"They're mine! All mine! Whoever dares fight me for them is making an enemy of me, Lin!"
"Fuck off! Get out of the way and stop blocking me from picking up money!"
As soon as someone shouted those words, quite a few bystanders in the surrounding area were struck by Gold Soul Coins.
Seeing the coins falling, the people in the inner circle all went red-eyed.
Why should everyone else get all the good fortune? They pushed toward the outer area one after another and began frantically snatching up Gold Soul Coins.
The previously airtight inner circle quickly lost many people. Wang Jingyu took Bibi Dong's hand and slipped into the opening.
After squeezing inside, Wang Jingyu and Bibi Dong finally saw what was going on.
Yu Xiaogang, that pitiful fellow, had his hands bound behind his back and was kneeling on the ground while being savagely beaten by a young woman.
His face had nearly been slapped into a pig's head. As she hit him, the young woman cursed furiously.
"You piece of trash! How could the clan produce a useless, lecherous scumbag like you? Someone like you only brings shame to the clan! Someone like you..."
Yu Xiaogang was completely bewildered by the beating. He had no idea where this crazy woman had come from.
While he had been sleeping soundly early that morning, she had rushed in, tied his hands behind his back, forced him to kneel, and continuously slapped his face.
Enough was enough! Even a saint had limits! This madwoman had gone too far.
No matter how good-tempered he was, his anger finally erupted.
"You crazy bitch, are you sick? I, Yu Xiaogang, don't think I know you, do I? You came right up and started punching and kicking me! If you want to go crazy, don't come find me!"
"Crazy bitch? You dare call me a crazy bitch?"
The young woman's temper flared even further. She grabbed Yu Xiaogang and continued beating him senseless, until he clenched his teeth and glared at her like she was his mortal enemy.
The main reason was that he had spotted Bibi Dong among the crowd. Being humiliated like this before the woman he loved made him feel as if his dignity had been utterly trampled.
Yu Xiaogang glared at the young woman, his teeth grinding audibly as he roared word by word.
"Crazy woman, the humiliation I, Yu Xiaogang, suffer today will one day be repaid tenfold!"
Bibi Dong looked up at Wang Jingyu with an odd expression and asked in confusion.
"Jingyu, don't you think we've seen this woman before? I feel like her figure looks somewhat familiar."
Wang Jingyu also stared at the young woman beating Yu Xiaogang, nodding with a frown.
"She does seem familiar, but where have we seen her?"
Suddenly, Wang Jingyu remembered Liu Erlong, whom they had encountered in the Star Dou Great Forest a week ago. The young woman bore many similarities to her.
However, they had looked down on Liu Erlong from above at the time, and the difference in angle was so great that they had not recognized her immediately.
"I know. She's the only woman from that Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan team we encountered in the forest before."
His reminder also made Bibi Dong suddenly remember. She wanted to ask whether this woman was Yu Xiaogang's second girlfriend.
But she discovered that she could only open her mouth; no sound came out at all. Some mysterious force was preventing her from revealing to Wang Jingyu that she knew the contents of the diary.
Bibi Dong pursed her lips, feeling somewhat depressed. This mysterious force was truly annoying.
Knowing so much yet being unable to say it was genuinely agonizing.
Wang Jingyu, meanwhile, complained in utter confusion through the Diary System.
What the hell is going on? Why did Liu Erlong meet Yu Xiaogang ahead of time?
Didn't the original story say that Yu Xiaogang met Flender and Liu Erlong while traveling the Douluo Continent after breaking up with Bibi Dong?
This is at least two years early. That alone would be one thing, but Liu Erlong is actually beating the crap out of Yu Xiaogang?
My god, this will create a deep-seated grudge. How are these siblings supposed to fall in love later? Is it going to be some kind of tortured romance?
Ever since I transmigrated, Bibi Dong has been acting strangely, and now Liu Erlong has become strange too.
Could she be a transmigrator too? Impossible, absolutely impossible! Or did my transmigration trigger the butterfly effect? That seems like the only possible explanation...
After Wang Jingyu finished complaining, he received a house-type Soul Tool.
According to the system's introduction, it contained an enormous villa, complete with everything found in modern society, even Soul Tools.
Besides that, the system unlocked a new function, Heavenly Eye. All he needed to do was place a Heavenly Eye on a target.
From then on, everything that person experienced would be under Wang Jingyu's control. This function could be used at most three times per month, and he could not monitor more than two people at the same time.
Damn! This was practically a divine skill! With this thing, wouldn't it be effortless for him to learn anyone's movements and what they had been doing in the future?
Most importantly, when this thing was used to monitor someone, they would not notice it at all.
If he placed one on Bibi Dong, then whenever she took a bath... wow, that view would be simply heavenly...
