Chess Piece

In the Hell Slaughter Arena, Bibi Dong slaughtered with madness, her methods remaining as brutal as ever.

Facing the fallen ones attacking her in unison, she used her sharp spider legs to tear them apart, shot silk from her wrists to bind them, and then shredded them to pieces.

Screams echoed incessantly throughout the Hell Slaughter Arena.

She was on the verge of using her Martial Soul's devouring ability to suck the fallen ones dry until only skin and bone remained.

However, Bibi Dong did not do so, remaining soberly aware that once she used such power here, she would be completely lost, becoming an Evil Soul Master. Would Martial Soul Hall even tolerate her then?

Recalling the words of Li Pu, Bibi Dong gritted her teeth in resentment.

"Damn brat, what do you know? You don't know me, you don't know anything! You don't know anything! You don't know anything!"

She and Yu Xiaogang had shared a sweet first love, only for it to be destroyed by Qian Xunji, and through disgusting, filthy means at that.

Was she wrong?

She simply refused to admit it.

As long as no one pointed it out, she would never be wrong, and she would continue down this path forever.

Yet, she did not know that as time passed, this emotion would become an obsession.

If Qian Xunji was the source of her fall, then Yu Xiaogang was the light Bibi Dong yearned for in her heart.

Consequently, her feelings for Yu Xiaogang were constantly idealized, polished, and embellished, eventually reaching a state of perfection, which in turn filled her with resentment toward the world.

At this stage, Bibi Dong had not yet fully fallen, nor had she been completely corrupted by the Rakshasa God. Once corrupted, like Tang Chen who was parasitized by the Nine-Headed Bat King, she would lack the divine power to ever be saved.

In the Hell Slaughter Arena, Bibi Dong won another match, yet she still could not calm down from Li Pu's words. Those words continued to flood her mind, gradually making her clear-headed.

"Perhaps I really was wrong..."

Bibi Dong muttered, a bitter smile forming on her lips.

Recalling her time with Yu Xiaogang, it seemed he was always making excuses, trying to extract more knowledge about Martial Soul Hall from her. At the time, she was truly acting for the sake of so-called love, even revealing the secret, non-transferable techniques of Martial Soul Hall, completely ignoring the organization behind Yu Xiaogang.

And what did she get in return?

She got nothing.

Furthermore, after that incident occurred and they were forced to break up, Yu Xiaogang did not trust her at all, nor did he believe in their love; he even turned around and got together with her cousin.

How ironic.

Otherwise, she would never have come to this hellish place, Slaughter City!

Back then, she was truly that naive and easy to deceive, like the young lady in a story approached by a man with ulterior motives. Everyone else could see his true intentions, yet she was the only one blinded.

For a moment, she felt as if she had lost her direction, not knowing what to do next.

Originally, she had only come to Slaughter City to obtain a divine inheritance, solely to take revenge on the entire world.

Now, she clearly realized that it was her own inability to judge character and her own blindness that led to her current situation; everything was her own doing.

If so, what was the point of all this?

At this moment, the hatred, the pent-up negative emotions, and the evil thoughts in her heart were churning, gradually fading away.

God Realm.

In a temple filled with the cold, evil aura of slaughter, a graceful figure sat in the center, radiating an aura of malice. Yet, despite the evil energy surrounding her, she herself did not appear evil in the slightest.

It seemed the evil aura was merely her power, unable to affect her true self.

She, who had been meditating with her eyes closed, suddenly sensed that her successor seemed to have slipped from her influence, and she opened her eyes.

"This shouldn't be."

Every divine position represented a rule. Rakshasa was the God of Evil Thoughts, and the chosen successor had to be someone harboring evil, while also possessing the aptitude to become a god.

As someone with Twin Martial Souls and a dark, evil-type Martial Soul, and having suffered the forced violation by her teacher which destroyed her love—thus filling her with resentment and evil toward the world—Bibi Dong was her best successor.

She was also a whetstone prepared for the successor of Asura, a pawn calculated from the very beginning.

Otherwise, she would never have lured her to Slaughter City to undergo the divine inheritance trials.

Yet now, this pawn had suddenly deviated from the requirements of evil thoughts that the Rakshasa God position demanded, which felt simply inconceivable.

"Let me see what happened..."

Driven by curiosity, the Rakshasa God looked through the inheritance site of Slaughter City and quickly learned the reason.

It was because of a child who had risen in Slaughter City that she had clearly realized her mistake, understanding that it was her own failure to judge people that caused her plight.

The Rakshasa God found it laughable that she had realized her error because of a child.

"A bit interesting..."

"However, wanting to escape this Seat's control? Don't even think about it. A pawn should just act like a pawn and have the realizations a pawn should have..."

"I'll let you be happy for a few more days; soon, you will return to resenting this world once again..."

It was not easy to choose a successor for the Rakshasa God, so the originally designated successor remained the best choice.

Finding another evil big boss was no easy task, let alone one who was already the scripted boss—the very big boss the protagonist needed to face.

Rakshasa God cast her gaze upon Li Pu, quickly devising a plan before breaking into an evil grin.

Hehehehe...

Li Pu suddenly shivered and let out a sneeze.

Why do I have the feeling that someone is watching me? Could Bibi Dong be cursing me? That must be it; after all, she was infuriated by me and is likely dwelling on those unpleasant memories.

It is no easy task to make someone on the verge of corruption clearly recognize their own mistakes.

The angry, resentful look on Bibi Dong's face when she left said it all.

Yet, Li Pu remained confident that Bibi Dong could still recognize her errors. Based on their interactions over this period, she had not yet sunk deep enough to reach a state of total madness.

Li Pu could understand Bibi Dong's current mood; once the emotional outburst passed, they would still be good friends.

Following this, the two had no further interaction. To the other fallen ones, it truly appeared as though they had fallen out and were quarreling, though it was a pity they hadn't actually come to blows.

Both continued their daily tasks in the Slaughter Hell Arena, simultaneously working to control their killing intent and suppress their restless hearts.

Some time later, Bibi Dong finally gathered the courage to admit her mistake to Li Pu, stating that she shouldn't have taken her anger out on him.

Li Pu smiled and accepted her apology: "It's fine. Who doesn't make mistakes in life? As long as you clearly recognize your error, that is enough."

Bibi Dong reached out and flicked him on the forehead: "You're so young, yet you act like such a little wiseacre."

She then turned away, revealing a smile that no one else could see.
