It's over!
The aura of death, like a cold spider web, instantly enveloped Qian Renxue.
The Spider Spear, shimmering with a sinister purple light, rapidly magnified in her pure golden pupils, the killing intent gathering at its tip seemingly piercing her soul.
Qian Renxue's face drained of all color in an instant, turning ashen white.
Her mind went blank.
how so?
She didn't understand.
He had merely stated a fact, intending to sting her with his words and persuade her to abandon those unrealistic fantasies.
Why?
Why would his own mother be so ruthless as to kill him?
Just before the Spider Spear was about to pierce her brow and explode her head like a watermelon, it was a split second before the spider spear pierced her forehead.
"Clang--!"
A crisp, piercing sound of metal clashing exploded in her ears!
Then a gentle and holy force pulled her backward sharply.
When Qian Renxue refocused her gaze, she saw her grandfather's tall and resolute back.
Qian Daoliu shielded her behind his back with one hand, while in his other hand, Angel Holy Sword formed from pure light elements had appeared without him noticing.
Holy light flowed across the sword, barely managing to block the ferocious Spider Spear that was almost touching Qian Renxue's nose.
The moment Qian Daoliu Qian Renxue, who was standing guard outside the door, uttered those heart-piercing words, he thought to himself, "This is bad!"
He knows Bibi Dong too well!
She knew all too well how that past meant to her—an untouchable taboo!
He conjured the Angel Holy Sword almost instantly, ready to rush in and save people at any moment.
Even so, it was only by a hair's breadth that they managed to stop the Spider Spear, which could have instantly killed Qian Renxue, from piercing her head.
This sudden scene was truly astonishing.
Behind Lin Feng, Zhu Zhuyun, who was vigorously massaging, and Zhu Zhuqing, who was earnestly pounding one leg on her lap, both sisters froze in place, their faces filled with horror and disbelief.
His Holiness the Pope... actually tried to kill his own daughter in his senior's shop?!
Seeing her attack blocked, the anger in Bibi Dong's eyes seemed to be doused with boiling oil, and it burned even more fiercely.
"You old bastard! Get out of my way!"
Her voice was no longer as calm as before; instead, it was filled with resentment and madness, sharp and piercing.
"Today, I will make sure this bastard child is completely wiped out from this world!"
"Bastard child..."
That chilling word "bastard" was like the sharpest knife, stabbing deeply into Qian Renxue's heart.
She was shielded behind Qian Daoliu, looking at Bibi Dong's face, twisted with extreme anger, and at her eyes, filled with hatred and murderous intent.
An indescribable sense of irony and sorrow instantly overwhelmed her.
She had thought that after spending these past few days together, although they still bickered most of the time, at least they had eaten at the same table.
She thought that surely this woman must have at least a small place for her, her daughter, in her heart?
But what was the result?
All I did was tell the truth.
She was actually going to kill him without any mercy!
Now, she even refers to herself as a "bastard"!
In an instant, the pride and stubbornness inherited from Bibi Dong, deeply hidden in her bones, erupted completely.
Endless grievances and despair transformed into hysterical anger.
Qian Renxue stopped hiding. She broke free from behind Qian Daoliu, pointed at Bibi Dong, and roared with all her might:
"You shameless woman!"
"You're so eager to betray your father and throw yourself into another man's arms? Don't you feel even a shred of shame or a sense of immorality?!"
Hearing Qian Renxue dare to mention Qian Xun, especially in front of Lin Feng Qian Renxue, was like pouring a bucket of boiling oil onto Bibi Dong's already burning anger!
" Xue'er, shut up!"
Qian Daoliu's expression changed drastically. He was about to speak to stop them, but it was too late.
"Aaaaaah--!"
Bibi Dong's eyes instantly turned crimson, completely consumed by madness!
"You dare mention him?!"
"How dare you mention that beast in front of me?!"
Buzz! Buzz!
Soul Power surged from behind her, and two more solid and enormous dark purple Spider Spear instantly emerged from her palms, emanating a terrifying aura that sent chills down one's spine.
"Die!!"
She went berserk, wielding two spears, and charged at Qian Renxue once more without regard for anything else!
" Bibi Dong, calm down! Xue'er didn't mean it!"
Left with no other choice, Qian Daoliu could only activate the Angel Holy Sword, trying his best to protect his granddaughter while anxiously trying to persuade her.
"If you want to pursue your own happiness, I will never stop you! I will agree to anything you ask! I only beg you, for my sake, to forgive Xue'er this time!"
To protect his granddaughter, this Peerless Douluo, standing at the pinnacle of the continent's pyramid, practically begged in humility.
Unfortunately, Bibi Dong has now been completely consumed by rage and has lost all reason.
Only one thought remained in her mind.
Kill her!
Kill this bastard child who carries that man's blood!
Kill this bastard who dared to expose his ugliest scars!
She wouldn't listen to a word Qian Daoliu.
Qian Renxue was even more furious upon hearing her grandfather's words!
What does it mean to not stop her from pursuing happiness?
What does it mean to forgive me?
Why does it seem like Bibi Dong, who betrayed her husband and abandoned her daughter, is the one in the right?
A strong sense of humiliation welled up in her heart, and almost subconsciously, she was about to speak up and refute Qian Daoliu.
The entire Maple Dye Pavilion was in complete chaos.
The violent Soul Power surged everywhere.
The mother wanted to kill her daughter.
Grandpa protects his granddaughter.
Granddaughter... ready to spray twice at any time.
Just when this family drama was about to turn into a bloody tragedy with no chance of survival.
An impatient shout rang out without warning.
"Enough!"
Just two words.
Throughout the Maple Dye Pavilion, the raging Soul Power, the soaring killing intent, and the ear-piercing sounds of clashes filled the air...
It came to an abrupt end.
It was as if someone had pressed the pause button.
Bibi Dong's forward-rushing body froze in mid-air, her twin spears no more than half a foot away from Qian Renxue's throat.
Qian Daoliu's blocking motion froze on the spot, his forehead covered in cold sweat.
Bibi Dong stiffly turned her head, little by little.
When she saw the man behind the counter, slowly rising from his chair with a furrowed brow.
The madness and murderous intent in her eyes, which could have burned everything, receded like the tide.
Instead, there was endless resentment and a deep-seated panic.
The Spider Spear in her hand instinctively pointed at Qian Renxue, her voice trembling with a sob, as she desperately tried to explain.
"Senior... it's this bastard child..."
Lin Feng's brows furrowed even deeper.
"I said, that's enough!"
Bibi Dong's mind went blank for a moment, as if "buzzing" in her head.
She felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over her head; all her grievances and explanations were stuck in her throat.
She lowered her head unwillingly, withdrew her Soul Power, and the hideous Spider Spear disappeared.
She bit her lower lip so hard it almost bled, and apologized in a trembling voice, barely audible.
"I'm... I'm sorry, senior..."
Looking at his only VIP client, Lin Feng felt a headache coming on.
Big sister!
What grudge do you hold against me? Why don't you go outside and fight?
They attacked me in my shop, and they were aiming to kill me.
Now that things have escalated like this, I'm in a really difficult position as the boss!
Lin Feng sighed helplessly in his heart, but his expression grew increasingly indifferent.
He slowly walked out from behind the counter, each step seeming to tread on the hearts of everyone present.
He looked at Bibi Dong, who was hanging her head and silent, like a schoolchild who had made a mistake, and his voice was flat, yet it carried an indescribable disappointment.
"You've attacked me in my shop again."
Lin Feng stopped in front of Bibi Dong, looking down at her with a cold gaze as if he were looking at a stranger.
" Bibi Dong, do you think that this VIP Monthly Subscription gives you the privilege to ignore my rules?"
Or perhaps...
His eyes narrowed slightly.
"You're tired of my food and don't plan to come again?"
