Bibi Dong: I Think I Like Him!

Life God Trial and God of Destruction's second trial, Revenge: Adjust your cultivation mindset. Time limit: one year. Completed six months early, exceeding expectations. Reward: 10% affinity with the Life and Destruction Gods, Soul Power increased by one level, Soul Ring lifespan increased by ten thousand years.

After hearing the rewards, Ye Xunfeng slowly opened his eyes.

The moment he opened them, he saw a young girl standing around him, watching him with a curious expression.

The girl had wine-red hair and a pair of amethyst-like eyes that sparkled as she stared at him curiously from the side.

"You're awake?" the girl said with a smile. "Hello, my name is Bibi Dong. We've met before."

Ye Xunfeng shifted his gaze to her. After a moment of silence, he finally said, "Shouldn't you hate me? After all, I crippled your teacher."

Bibi Dong looked at him with a sweet expression. "He isn't my teacher. He hasn't been for three years. My teacher has now become an offering of the Elder Hall. Besides, I heard it too—you were taking Revenge for your mother."

A trace of pity flashed through Bibi Dong's eyes. She gently patted his shoulder and said, "And you're amazing. Carrying all that hatred and grievance, yet still becoming so powerful in the end."

Ye Xunfeng moved Bibi Dong's hand off his shoulder. "Heh, amazing? If I were amazing, I would have been able to save my mother right after awakening my Martial Soul."

A hint of mockery flashed in Ye Xunfeng's eyes as he looked Bibi Dong up and down.

He was even more curious about why Bibi Dong was here.

Qian Daoliu slowly walked over from the side. "Ye Xunfeng, do you plan to move your mother's grave here?"

"Yes." Ye Xunfeng glanced at the Angel statue above and nodded. "My mother believed in Angels. She would be willing to exist forever beneath the light of Angels."

Ye Xunfeng looked calmly at Qian Daoliu. "Don't worry. I'll take the Angel Clan to a whole new height."

Qian Daoliu reached out, intending to touch Ye Xunfeng's head, but slowly withdrew his hand in the end and let out a sigh.

"In one month, we'll hold your coronation ceremony as Pope. Ye Xunfeng, now that your Revenge has been taken, let go of the knot in your heart and cultivate well. Once you reach Super Douluo, cultivation is less about training than it is about cultivating the heart." Qian Daoliu sighed, then finally placed his hand lightly on Ye Xunfeng's shoulder and gave it a pat.

After saying this, Qian Daoliu turned and left.

"Qian Xunji—how do you plan to deal with him?" Ye Xunfeng quietly asked after seeing Qian Daoliu turn away.

"You've already crippled his limbs and Soul Power. Your Martial Soul has mutated. Until you bear a child with a Six-Winged Angel, I will not let him die," Qian Daoliu said after a long silence.

"I understand what you mean." Ye Xunfeng chuckled. "I never intended to kill him now anyway. I have one request: you may ask a healing-type Soul Master to treat his wounds so he won't die so easily, but I hope a sinner will live like a sinner. No one is to serve him."

Qian Daoliu froze for a moment, then turned to look at Ye Xunfeng and nodded. "Alright. Bibi Dong, come with me."

Qian Daoliu gave Bibi Dong a deep look, then gestured for her to leave with him.

After standing beneath the Angel statue for quite some time, Ye Xunfeng went to the Pope Palace.

"Yue Guan?" Ye Xunfeng looked at the two people standing below the Pope Palace and called out one of their names.

"Greetings, Your Holiness." Yue Guan bowed with great respect.

Ye Xunfeng examined his cultivation and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you're stuck at level eighty-nine, right? A fine blade belongs in a hero's hand. This is for you."

Ye Xunfeng took out the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum from his storage Soul Tool and used Soul Power to place it before Yue Guan.

Yue Guan's entire face instantly trembled, overcome by indescribable surprise and excitement.

"Your Holiness, this... this humble one is unworthy. This is a supreme Immortal Herb. Its value surpasses even a Soul Bone..." Yue Guan said nervously.

"Your Martial Soul is this, isn't it? I believe it can serve a greater purpose in your hands. If you feel unable to repay me, then work for me from now on and pledge your loyalty to me." Ye Xunfeng swept his gaze over him twice before turning to Ghost Douluo beside him.

Those two really were inseparable.

"Greetings, Your Holiness." Ghost Douluo also bowed, though he did not seem as enthusiastic as Yue Guan and instead appeared somewhat cold.

"By the way, what are you two here for?" Ye Xunfeng suddenly recalled something and asked.

"The First Elder instructed Yue Guan and me to assist you in becoming familiar with the affairs of the Pope Palace," Ghost Douluo said.

"Mm, I understand." Ye Xunfeng nodded, rubbed his forehead, and slowly sat down in the Pope's chair, looking down below.

What a view from the top. This is what power feels like.

"Then I'll be relying on you two." Ye Xunfeng smiled.

Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo began helping him sort through the unreviewed documents on the desk.

"Your Holiness, the most important matters coming up are your papal coronation ceremony and the election of the Seven Great Sects." Seeing that Ghost Douluo could handle the sorting alone, Yue Guan began introducing Ye Xunfeng to the other important matters.

Ye Xunfeng nodded. "Mm, I understand."

Ye Xunfeng picked up the documents beside him and began dealing with them one by one. They were not particularly complicated—one could even say they were simple and easy. Within an hour, he had resolved them all.

Still, this really was a waste of time and not very beneficial to cultivation.

Ye Xunfeng clicked his tongue softly, brushed off his clothes, and walked out of the Pope Palace to look at the sun outside.

His golden clothes appeared even more sacred beneath the sunlight. Hidden to one side, Bibi Dong stared at Ye Xunfeng without blinking.

People from the major sects were all hurrying toward Spirit Hall.

Ah Yin...

I succeeded. Once you become a Soul Saint, we'll be able to live openly and honestly.

Ye Xunfeng's aura instantly softened. He truly liked Ah Yin—her clarity and liveliness, along with her indescribable tolerance and gentleness.

Ye Xunfeng smiled faintly. It was a beautiful smile.

But as for love, he did not know...

"Xiao Dong, why are you hiding here?" Light Feather Douluo gently patted Bibi Dong's shoulder and muttered softly.

"Ye Xunfeng is so handsome. I like him so much!" Bibi Dong said to Light Feather Douluo, her eyes sparkling.

A trace of excitement flashed across Light Feather Douluo's face as well. It was a good thing that Bibi Dong liked the new Pope, Ye Xunfeng.

It would be perfect if the two got together—better to keep the benefits within the family. However, from what he had heard from Pufferfish and Snake Lance Douluo, Ye Xunfeng seemed to already have a woman he liked.

This...

"Light Feather Douluo, do you think he'll agree if I confess to him?" Bibi Dong excitedly tugged at Light Feather Douluo's clothes.
