Ling Feng had put on this act, naturally, to get himself some benefits.
But Rakshasa Bibi Dong had taken him at his word and even found herself envying her other self.
If someone had stood up for her like that in her previous life, she might not have ended up where she did.
"Ling Feng, I'm not asking you to truly fall in love with Liu Erlong. It won't affect your relationship with Bibi Dong."
Ling Feng said, "Senior, forgive me, but I can't obey."
"What if Bibi Dong finds out about my relationship with Liu Erlong and leaves me? What would I do then?"
Rakshasa Bibi Dong thought for a moment. "How about this? While Bibi Dong is training in the Capital of Slaughter, I'll bring you outside!"
"Then Bibi Dong won't know what you do out there."
"Once she comes out, won't she have to listen to your explanation?"
Rakshasa Bibi Dong was so blinded by thoughts of revenge that she had actually come up with a scheme like this.
If the younger Bibi Dong found out, wouldn't she fight her to the death?
But Ling Feng still refused. "Senior, I'd feel guilty doing that. I couldn't face Bibi Dong!"
Rakshasa Bibi Dong sighed, thinking, Why is Ling Feng so stubborn?
She knew herself well enough to believe that even if Bibi Dong found out what had happened between Ling Feng and Liu Erlong, she would still love him.
That was how she had been in her previous life. Even after becoming a god, she still hadn't come to terms with it and continued to think about Yu Xiaogang.
It was only after being reborn and going through life and death that she finally saw the truth.
Of course, it might also have been because she no longer had a body.
Many of her perspectives came from inhabiting Ling Feng, and that had changed some of her thoughts.
"Ling Feng, think carefully. Are you really unwilling to help me take revenge?" Rakshasa Bibi Dong asked.
"Senior, can't we take revenge another way?" Ling Feng asked.
"No!"
Rakshasa Bibi Dong wanted to repay Liu Erlong in kind, making her taste the same bitterness she herself had experienced in her previous life.
"Fine. If you agree to help me take revenge, I can grant you one favor within my power."
At that, Ling Feng pretended to hesitate. "Senior, could you help me break through level one hundred and become a god?"
"Hmph, dream on. My divine power hasn't even recovered yet. How could I help you become a god?" Rakshasa Bibi Dong said.
Besides, she had no divine position now, so she couldn't arrange a divine trial or pass one on.
Once she recovered her divine power, she would probably have to clash with the current Rakshasa God.
"Pick another favor! How about this? I'll give you Twin Martial Souls!"
"With Twin Martial Souls, your foundation will be much stronger. Perhaps you'll be able to reach level one hundred and become a god someday!" Rakshasa Bibi Dong said.
That was exactly what Ling Feng wanted, but he still hesitated for a while before saying, "All right, then. I'll do as you say, Senior."
"But if this comes to light someday, please help explain things."
Rakshasa Bibi Dong said, "Of course. Once I've recovered my divine power, I can appear before people anytime and explain things for you!"
In truth, she could appear before people even now, but she feared drawing the Divine Realm's attention.
So Rakshasa Bibi Dong planned to keep herself hidden until she was strong enough to handle whatever came her way.
I can have Twin Martial Souls too? Ling Feng thought.
He trusted Rakshasa Bibi Dong's promise. I just wonder what Martial Soul she'll give me.
Meanwhile, Rakshasa Bibi Dong was also pondering what sort of Martial Soul to condense for Ling Feng.
My divine artifact from my previous life, the Rakshasa Scythe? No, he already has the Rakshasa Spider Emperor.
Why not go to the Capital of Slaughter, siphon off some of Asura God's aura, and condense an Asura Demon Sword Martial Soul for Ling Feng?
Hmph. Then let's see whether Asura God passes his divine position to Tang San or Ling Feng!
Once Asura God loses his divine position, I'll settle the score for what happened in my previous life! Rakshasa Bibi Dong thought.
Liu Erlong chased after Ling Feng, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't catch him.
"What's with this guy? Why's he running so fast?"
"He looks about my age. I never would've guessed he was this strong!"
Ling Feng ran ahead, distracted by his conversation with Bibi Dong, so he didn't notice Liu Erlong behind him.
Liu Erlong sped up, and he instinctively sped up too. The two of them ended up racing through the forest.
Liu Erlong had already used up a great deal of Soul Power, and she refused to take a Dragon Ganoderma Leaf to recover, so she simply couldn't catch up with Ling Feng.
By then, Ling Feng had finished speaking with Rakshasa Bibi Dong and come to his senses.
Realizing Liu Erlong's Soul Power still hadn't fully recovered, he slowed down, intending to wait for her.
But Liu Erlong was distracted too, focused entirely on catching up with him.
Before long, Liu Erlong's vision went dark, and she was about to crash straight into Ling Feng.
She tried to dodge, but she had used up too much Soul Power that day and had barely enough strength to stop herself. She crashed right into him.
Liu Erlong was moving fast. If she'd hit an ordinary person like that, she would probably have left them badly injured.
Fortunately, Ling Feng was sturdy enough to catch her securely with his hands.
"Are you all right, Liu Erlong?" Ling Feng asked with concern.
He hadn't expected her to crash into him like that, and had instinctively caught her.
They were now so close that they could feel the warmth of each other's breath.
Ling Feng also got a clear look at Liu Erlong's true appearance. Her black hair flowed like a waterfall, her jade-white face was smooth, and her sharp brows and eyes gave her the look of a chivalrous heroine.
A trace of killing intent in her eyes concealed some other need deep in her heart.
She was quite different from the red-haired Liu Erlong in her Dragon Transformation state, with a charm all her own.
"Who told you to stop so suddenly?" Liu Erlong demanded as she pulled free of Ling Feng's embrace.
This little Fire Dragon's even panting? Ling Feng thought.
Still, he kept his calm expression and explained why he had stopped.
"Liu Erlong, I saw you hadn't caught up, so I thought your Soul Power was running low and decided to wait for you."
"I didn't expect you to be so weak you couldn't control your own body and ended up crashing into me."
Liu Erlong turned her head away. "Who's weak? I was just distracted by something else."
While she was talking with her mouth open, Ling Feng flicked a finger and shot a Dragon Ganoderma Leaf into her mouth.
"You should restore your Soul Power. If we run into a powerful fallen one or Soul Beast, you'll be at a serious disadvantage without it."
Caught off guard by Ling Feng, Liu Erlong nearly choked to death.
But the Dragon Ganoderma Leaf had already reached her throat and melted as soon as it went in. She coughed a few times, but couldn't bring it back up.
"What did you make me eat?" Liu Erlong demanded.
Ling Feng smiled. "Obviously, some kind of wicked potion. Once you take it, you'll obey my every command and fall hopelessly in love with me!"
"You!" Liu Erlong was about to fly into a rage when she suddenly felt warmth rising inside her. Her Soul Power had actually begun to recover slowly.
If she sat down and meditated for a while, her Soul Power would recover even faster.
"Did you give me a Dragon Ganoderma Leaf?"
Bibi Dong suddenly realized what had happened. She quickly took out a Dragon Ganoderma Leaf and compared its scent with the one she had been given.
