Bibi Dong's New Mission

Liu Erlong retracted the flames from her body, though she did not deactivate her Spirit Avatar state, watching Ling Feng with wary eyes.

There is no such thing as a free lunch; if someone is being overly attentive, they are either a thief or a scoundrel.

That coin purse was clearly her reward for his help, yet he had twisted it into a "greeting gift." Liu Erlong felt he harbored ulterior motives.

"That wasn't a greeting gift; it was a reward for your help. Thank you for assisting me!" Liu Erlong said.

"Oh? So it was a reward? I saved your life, and your reward is only a few hundred gold soul coins?" Ling Feng laughed.

Liu Erlong's delicate brows furrowed, and the dragon scales on her body flickered with flames, betraying her current mood.

She gripped her dragon claws tightly and retorted stubbornly, "Even without your intervention, I wouldn't have died!"

Seeing that Liu Erlong was taking him seriously, Ling Feng stopped teasing her.

"Don't be angry, I was just joking."

"This person must be a Fallen One. They are a scourge to all, and my intervention wasn't to save you, but merely to purge a Fallen One."

"So, there is no need to thank me. Just consider this bag of gold soul coins a greeting gift from you to me."

"I still have some Dragon Ganoderma Leaves left. They aren't anything precious, so just take them."

Ling Feng tossed a small box containing a few Dragon Ganoderma Leaves to her.

Seeing the leaves flying toward her, Liu Erlong hurriedly suppressed her spirit power to prevent the precious medicinal herbs from being incinerated.

"A Fallen One? What is a Fallen One?" Liu Erlong asked.

Ling Feng pointed at the man lying on the ground and said, "Why don't you just ask him yourself?"

The Fallen One had had his arms crushed by Liu Erlong, but he was not yet dead. He had been lying on the ground, hoping to play dead and slip away.

But once Ling Feng called him out, he dared not feign death any longer. He prepared to force his spirit power to circulate and flee, regardless of the backlash.

However, how could such obvious fluctuations in spirit power escape the notice of Ling Feng and Liu Erlong?

Liu Erlong stomped on the Fallen One's knee joints, shattering both of his kneecaps instantly.

Ling Feng stepped back silently. This Liu Erlong is too brutal, isn't she? No wonder she becomes known as the Horn of Slaughter in the future.

"Ah! Kill me, just kill me!" The Fallen One could no longer endure the excruciating pain and wailed on the ground.

Liu Erlong remained unmoved and asked, "I was helping you hunt a spirit beast; why did you attack me?"

The Fallen One lay on the ground, wailing without answering her question.

Seeing this, Liu Erlong raised her foot again, aiming directly at the man's crotch.

If that kick landed, the Fallen One's manhood would likely be obliterated.

"Don't! I'll talk, I'll talk!"

The Fallen One was terrified; becoming a eunuch would be far worse than death.

"Because I was afraid you would expose my spirit, and I would be hunted down by Spirit Hall or other factions."

"Also, your spirit power is very strong. I wanted to kill you and use my Blood-Devouring Vine spirit to consume you and increase my cultivation."

After hearing the Fallen One's explanation, Liu Erlong finally understood what a Fallen One was.

So, spirit masters can actually cultivate by consuming other spirit masters? No wonder they are called Fallen Ones! Liu Erlong thought to herself.

"My Lords, I have said everything I know. Can you spare my life?"

"You have crippled me, so I won't be able to take revenge in the future. Can't you just treat me like a stray dog and let me go?" the Fallen One pleaded.

Liu Erlong did not waver. She hated evil with a passion; how could she allow such a person to live?

"Hmph, spare you? What about the spirit masters you consumed before? Who could spare them?"

Liu Erlong spread her dragon claws, ready to crush the Fallen One's skull and send him to his end.

"Let me handle this," Ling Feng said, gripping Liu Erlong's dragon claw.

Ling Feng truly could not appreciate Liu Erlong's "art" of killing.

"What are you doing?"

Liu Erlong was stunned. Ling Feng had actually dared to grab her hand? This was the first time a man had ever done such a thing.

Although it was a dragon claw, it was still her body, and the sensation was the same to her.

Moreover, his grip was incredibly strong. Her Fire Dragon Spirit possessed the attribute of strength, yet she hadn't been able to break free immediately.

However, she was a Fire Dragon Spirit user after all; with a forceful tug, she managed to break free from Ling Feng's grasp.

Ling Feng hadn't even realized what he had done; after all, he had been holding a hard, scale-covered dragon claw and felt nothing.

"You wanted to crush his head, and I was afraid of getting blood on myself, so let me kill him instead!" Ling Feng said.

Liu Erlong realized then that Ling Feng was simply disgusted by her brutal method of killing.

She had grown accustomed to killing this way over the years to vent the pent-up frustration in her heart, but no one had ever shown disgust toward her before.

"Who said I was going to crush his head? I was just going to burn him to ashes to cleanse the world," Liu Erlong said.

Liu Erlong picked up the spoils from the Fallen One, and with a flash of her spirit ring, she spat out a fireball of lightning and flame, which landed on the Fallen One.

Before long, the fallen one vanished into the flames, leaving behind nothing but a patch of charred ash.

"My apologies, I misunderstood you!" Ling Feng said sincerely.

"Do you have other business? Would you like to travel together to leave the Sunset Forest?" Ling Feng asked.

Liu Erlong felt that Ling Feng did not seem like a bad person, and since he had saved her, she found it difficult to refuse his face.

"Very well!" Liu Erlong finally dispersed her dragon transformation.

As Ling Feng sprinted toward the edge of the forest, he communicated with Rakshasa Bibi Dong within his Sea of Consciousness.

"Senior, why did you want me to save her? Do you know her?" Ling Feng asked.

As for his previous question, Ling Feng did not bring it up again, lest Rakshasa Bibi Dong pretend to fall into a deep slumber once more.

Rakshasa Bibi Dong thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, she is the reincarnation of an enemy of This Seat."

"This Seat could not let her die just like that, which is why I had you save her!"

Ling Feng was left between laughter and tears; this Bibi Dong was truly vengeful.

Her romantic rival was the Liu Erlong of the future, so what did that have to do with this Liu Erlong?

The current Liu Erlong did not even know Yu Xiaogang, and perhaps they would never have any intersection in the future.

Yet, Rakshasa Bibi Dong seemed intent on using this Liu Erlong as an object of revenge, which was why she had him save her.

"Then what happens after saving her? What do you want me to do, Senior?" Ling Feng asked.

Rakshasa Bibi Dong replied, "This Seat wants you to get close to her, make her fall in love with you, and then cruelly abandon her."

"It would be best to bring Bibi Dong before her, and let Liu Erlong watch the two of you being affectionate!"

Rakshasa Bibi Dong had not forgotten how this little fire-dragon had bared her fangs at her after reuniting with Yu Xiaogang in their past life.

"Ah?" Ling Feng feigned surprise. "But Senior, Bibi Dong and I are already lovers with a tacit understanding."

"If I were to fall in love with Liu Erlong, wouldn't that be betraying Bibi Dong?"

"Such behavior goes against my code of conduct, so I must ask you to retract your order, Senior."

Ling Feng stood righteous and awe-inspiring, putting on the appearance of a pure, upright gentleman.

Watching Ling Feng act this way, Rakshasa Bibi Dong began to envy her other self once again.
