Bibi Dong Is Acting Strange (9th update)

Ling Yuan sat down beside Bibi Dong and said with a sincere expression, "Your Majesty, I must confess to you that I am also one of the owners of a Diary Copy."

Bibi Dong feigned surprise and asked, "Is that truly the case? Elder Ling Yuan, if that is so, why didn't you come forward earlier? Why wait until now to tell me?"

Ling Yuan felt rather dejected. "Your Majesty, do you wish to hear the truth?"

Bibi Dong replied indifferently, "Tell me the lie first; I want to hear the lie."

Ling Yuan answered, "It was out of selfishness. I didn't want to expose myself."

Bibi Dong nodded. "And the truth?"

Ling Yuan looked at Bibi Dong for a long while, but still did not dare to say it.

Bibi Dong promised directly, "Speak freely. I will not be angry, nor will I blame you."

"Very well!" Ling Yuan took a deep breath and said, "When I first learned of the Diary Copy, I wasn't sure if Your Majesty possessed one, so naturally, I couldn't speak of it. Once I confirmed you had one, the Young Mistress made you the subject the very next day. After I learned everything, I dared not speak of it even more."

"Now that I see more and more people possessing the Diary Copy, I know it can no longer be hidden, and I know that the secrets I have seen are known to many others as well."

Very well! This really was a sneaky lurker. Bibi Dong was furious inside; her greatest secrets had already been exposed, and what's more, her past foolishness was laid bare. She could already imagine that this subordinate of hers had completely labeled her in her heart: a madwoman, a love-struck fool, an ingrate, a blind Titled Douluo. Su Chen, you bastard!

The more Bibi Dong thought about it, the angrier she became. Ultimately, she hid her emotions, looked at Ling Yuan, and said, "You might not believe this, but after obtaining the Diary Copy, I am no longer affected by the evil thoughts of the Rakshasa God. I have returned to normal."

Ling Yuan hurriedly declared, "Your Majesty, at any time, Ling Yuan will be your most capable assistant, willing to go through fire and water for you, never refusing even death."

Big sister, you don't need to explain to me. No matter what kind of madwoman you are, you are still my Pope!

Bibi Dong's face darkened, and she said in a deep voice, "That scum Yu Xiaogang ruined my life and ruined my Spirit Hall. I will not let him go in the future, and I will surely kill that Tang San as well. All these years, I have failed Xue'er!"

Ling Yuan lowered her head in silence, thinking, Big sister, why are you telling me all this? You just need to trust me, trust that I am your person.

Bibi Dong's brows turned cold. "You don't believe me?"

"No, I believe you. I believe you, Your Majesty," Ling Yuan hurriedly stated.

I believe you, my foot. Su Chen's diary entries versus you—who do you expect me to believe?

Bibi Dong rubbed her forehead. She knew Ling Yuan still didn't believe her, and she felt quite helpless. "Ling Yuan, I am speaking to you seriously. Haven't you noticed that after obtaining the Diary Copy, your mind has suddenly become clear?"

Awkward. Ling Yuan didn't know how to answer. I'm not a love-struck madwoman, and I don't have any obsessions. How could I possibly understand what you're talking about?

Bibi Dong shook her head. "Forget it. Even if I explain it to you, you won't believe me."

"I have a plan, and you are the most suitable person to carry it out. I want you to go and find those who possess a Diary Copy and invite them all to our Spirit City."

"You have seen for yourself how mysterious and powerful Su Chen's Diary Copy is. Nana is now a level sixty Spirit Emperor and possesses two hundred-thousand-year spirit rings and spirit bones. These people must not become enemies of our Spirit Hall."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yuan hurriedly stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, why go to such trouble? If they are unwilling to join Spirit Hall, we should simply execute them!"

Bibi Dong's expression turned grave as she said:

"Have you not noticed that everyone who possesses a Diary Copy shares a specific trait?"

Ling Yuan looked confused and asked:

"A trait?"

"I don't think so. I haven't noticed anything."

Bibi Dong spoke:

"I have pondered this question. Those who possess a Diary Copy have one thing in common—they are all beautiful women."

"Su Chen is omniscient regarding the affairs of the continent. We cannot guarantee whether he has feelings for any of these women. If we kill them blindly and incur his hatred, it would not be worth it."

"Furthermore! I just told you that the Diary Copy can purify the evil thoughts of the Rakshasa God, which suggests it possesses a certain inherent protective ability."

"I..."

Ling Yuan felt conflicted. What kind of chaotic mess was this? But it was true—those who possessed the Diary Copies were all beautiful women, regardless of their age.

So???

Bibi Dong continued:

"You don't need to overthink it. Go find them and tell them that Su Chen will return to Spirit City later. Ask them, if they hide in some corner, when will they ever obtain rewards?"

"If they want to improve their strength, come to Spirit City. If they want hundred-thousand-year spirit rings and bones, come to Spirit City. If they want to become gods, come to Spirit City."

"Remember to use a polite attitude. Invite them in my name to attend our—offline diary-owner gathering."

"Ahem!"

Ling Yuan felt her head buzzing! Big sister, with such a bizarre train of thought, are you sure you aren't a lunatic?

Is this something a normal person would come up with?

The next day.

Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Su Chen flew out from within, his mood exceptionally good. His physique had been strengthened, his immunity to ice and fire had increased, and his resistance to poison had reached new heights.

The power within his body had also undergone a transformation; he was now one hundred percent certain he could reach the Title Douluo realm.

"Ah!"

Dugu Yan had just crawled out of her tent when she saw a large mass and couldn't help but scream.

Ye Lingling also blushed and covered her eyes.

Su Chen was stunned. He quickly pulled clothes from his spatial ring and put them on, looking awkward as he said:

"Please, you must believe me, I really don't have any strange fetishes."

When Su Chen entered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, he had to take his clothes off because, in reality, clothing would be completely destroyed in such a place.

He had just come out and hadn't even had time to absorb his spirit ring; he hadn't thought about clothes at all.

Dugu Bo stepped forward with a stern face and said:

"Su Chen!"

"This is absolutely outrageous! You actually let my granddaughter see you naked. If you don't give me an explanation today, I won't let this go."

Su Chen: ???

"Old man, do you even hear what you're saying? I'm the one who was seen naked."

Uh.

Dugu Bo awkwardly rubbed his nose and said, "Same thing, same thing. Forget it, just detoxify Yan'er first!"

Su Chen gave Dugu Bo a strange look. This old man—he actually had designs on him!

"Yanzi, come here!"

Dugu Yan walked over with a blushing face and sat on the ground, waiting for Su Chen to act.

However.

Su Chen hesitated.

"This..."

Dugu Bo looked suspicious:

"Didn't you say yesterday that detoxifying Yan'er was very simple? Why are you hesitating now?"

Su Chen's expression turned ugly as he said in a low voice: "First, let me clarify: although I, Su Chen, am not a saint and I do like beautiful women, I—a gentleman's appreciation of beauty follows a proper path."

"And then, let me ask a timid question: have you ever read wuxia novels?"
