The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's viewing area.
"You must remember, our Martial Soul is a dragon, the greatest Beast Martial Soul under heaven. We fear nothing, and the Dragon God's Power awakened within us is enough to let us defeat any opponent!"
"Who cares if they have Twin Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power? We, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragons, are inferior to no one!"
Yu Luomian's words restored the confidence of the brothers Yu Tianxin and Yu Tianheng.
"Second Master, you're right. Our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul is the strongest Beast Martial Soul in the world today. Who cares what kind of nobody they are? Anyone who offends us is doomed. A dragon is a dragon, after all—it's no match for those ordinary Martial Souls!"
"Whoever they are, if they dare provoke our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, I'll use my dragon fangs and claws to chew them up and spit them out. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has kept a low profile for years. It's time to prove to the world that we're the truly invincible ones!"
"Twin Martial Souls may be powerful, but our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragons are no weaker!"
Listening to the two young juniors' impassioned words, Yu Luomian looked very pleased.
That's more like it!
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was universally recognized as the greatest Beast Martial Soul in the world. How could they lose heart just because someone tried to scare them?
Yu Luomian still wanted to say that if years of drinking and women hadn't worn him down, he would've stormed Spirit Hall long ago and given Bibi Dong a good beating with his walking stick!
That young beauty had been targeting the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan quite a bit lately!
After the Spirit Awakening Ceremony ended, Lin Tian returned to His Holiness the Pope's bedchamber.
Those big shots in the Worship Hall now saw him as a thorn in their side. Unless he had a reason to go out, it was best for him to stay in.
More importantly, he'd performed brilliantly at the Spirit Awakening Ceremony. It was time to ask his mother for a reward.
That afternoon, the familiar sound of high heels echoed down the corridor outside the bedchamber.
His mother, the Pope, was back.
Thinking about the reward he was about to ask for, Lin Tian couldn't help tensing up. His whole body grew nervous.
A moment later, someone opened the door to the Pope's bedchamber from outside, and a waft of fragrance drifted into Lin Tian's nose.
He looked up and saw his mother, the Pope, standing before him in a gold-trimmed gown, smiling.
Under the sunlight, Lin Tian thought her lips looked even brighter than before. Even her peerlessly beautiful face was tinged with a rosy flush.
Seeing Lin Tian waiting for her in the bedchamber, Bibi Dong couldn't help letting out a soft laugh. Children really couldn't keep their patience.
He'd only just won a reward, and already he couldn't wait to claim it.
At that thought, Bibi Dong swayed her slender waist and strode over on her long legs. Then she bent down affectionately and asked,
"Come on, little one. Tell me what reward you want. As long as it isn't too outrageous, Mommy will grant it!"
Gazing at the beautiful young woman right before him, Lin Tian froze for a moment.
In his previous life, he'd been a 996 wage slave, but he'd still seen plenty of beauties.
Yet when he compared them to His Holiness the Pope, Lin Tian felt they were missing something. They simply didn't have that breathtaking quality.
After thinking it over, Lin Tian finally realized the answer.
Bibi Dong was a mature woman, and that mature, alluring aura was something those ordinary beauties could never pull off.
Now that the reward had been offered, he couldn't very well refuse it.
"Come on, little one. Tell me what you want Mommy to do. As long as it isn't too outrageous, I can give you whatever you want."
Bibi Dong leaned a little closer, then reached out with her fair hand and gently ruffled Lin Tian's hair.
"Mommy Pope, I want to..."
"You want what?"
Bibi Dong asked with a smile.
"I want a hug. You've never hugged me, not once, all these years."
Lin Tian spoke a little timidly.
After all, he still didn't dare ask for anything too outrageous.
This was the Pope's bedchamber, not some deserted place. If he went too far, that big bird in the Worship Hall might fly into a rage.
"So you want a hug from Mommy."
Though Bibi Dong said that, she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
Just as Bibi Dong was wondering how she should indulge the little one, a pair of small arms suddenly wrapped around her, followed by a warm puff of breath against her chest.
This little one was rather impatient.
Feeling Lin Tian's embrace, Bibi Dong's expression softened. She was just about to push him away, but then she remembered all the hardships the little one had endured lately and drew her hand back.
Very well!
This time, she'd consider it comfort for him!
Besides, Lin Tian had performed well in this Spirit Awakening Ceremony. Twin Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power—there were few like him in the history of the Douluo Continent.
What's more, throughout the six years she'd cared for him, he'd always trusted her deeply, treating her as his real mother.
All these reasons had gradually led the usually aloof Bibi Dong to accept the little boy's increasingly outrageous antics in her arms.
"Lin Tian, you need to focus on growing stronger during this time. Spirit Hall isn't as safe as you think! Those old geezers in the Worship Hall have been wanting to kill you all along!"
"But don't be too nervous. Mommy will protect you!"
When she finished speaking, Bibi Dong gently stroked the boy's head in her arms, signaling for him to go a little easier.
"Don't worry, Mommy. I'll get stronger as quickly as I can. I'll protect myself, and I'll protect you too!"
Only after a long while did Lin Tian lift his head from Bibi Dong's embrace, looking thoroughly satisfied. He felt refreshed. This was the happiest day he'd had since crossing over to the Douluo Continent.
"Mommy, don't worry. When I grow up, I won't let anyone bully you! I'll make sure our Spider Emperor Spirit becomes the undisputed number one on the Douluo Continent!"
"Then it won't matter what kind of Six-Winged Angel Spirit, Clear Sky Hammer, or Seven Kill Sword they have... They can all get lost!"
Listening to the little one chatter on, Bibi Dong's rose-red eyes filled with satisfaction.
Not bad. It hadn't been a waste raising this child.
Some in the Soul Master World misunderstood her and said she disliked children, but she only hated that beast Qian Xunji, who had forced her to give birth to his bastard.
As for Lin Tian, Bibi Dong genuinely loved him.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have chosen to stand against Xiongshi, the Worshipper, for his sake.
As the Pope of Spirit Hall, she knew very well that without Qian Daoliu's tacit approval, that old lion would never have come to provoke her.
Though he'd ultimately stopped Xiongshi, the Worshipper, from taking things further, to Bibi Dong that was what made the Angel Clan so hypocritical.
They acted righteous and holy on the surface, but behind the scenes they resorted to every low-down trick in the book!
"Lin Tian, you have to promise Mommy one thing. My lifelong wish is to destroy the Angel Clan. So when you grow up, you must help me make that dream come true!"
