Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue Fight Over Jiang Yu!

After handling the affairs of the Heaven Dou imperial palace today, Qian Renxue came to this wilderness as usual to look for Jiang Yu.

This was one of the few comforts in her life.

But she had never expected that when she arrived, she would see Bibi Dong approaching Jiang Yu and intending to take him away!

Panic and anger immediately surged up in Qian Renxue's heart.

Almost instinctively, Qian Renxue rushed out, shielding Jiang Yu behind her as she faced the woman she both revered and resented.

Bibi Dong glanced at Qian Renxue, who stood in her way, and a trace of displeasure surfaced on her noble face.

"That is what I should be asking you."

Bibi Dong's voice was calm, yet it carried an unquestionable authority.

"You are Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire. Why are you here in this desolate wilderness?"

Qian Renxue met her gaze without backing down. "Where I appear seems to be none of Your Holiness's concern!"

"You dare speak to me in that tone!"

Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes suddenly turned sharp, and an invisible pressure erupted from her.

"I—"

Struck by that imposing aura, Qian Renxue was instantly rendered speechless.

Even she found it strange—where had the courage to defy her come from?

Perhaps the panic of seeing Jiang Yu about to be taken away had overwhelmed the fear of Bibi Dong that she had carried since childhood.

Seeing Qian Renxue's momentum weaken, Bibi Dong regained the upper hand.

"Jiang Yu's talent is one in ten thousand."

"Only by returning to Spirit Hall with me can he receive the highest level of training, ensuring that his talent will not be wasted."

Bibi Dong could not help saying as she looked at Jiang Yu.

"No!"

"Jiang Yu, he..."

Before Qian Renxue could finish, Bibi Dong cut her off.

"You have no right to say no!"

"Jiang Yu, as long as you return to Spirit Hall with me, I will immediately appoint you Spirit Hall's Holy Son, with a status second only to mine..."

"You will receive the finest cultivation resources and the best environment for growth!..."

"I can provide Jiang Yu with those conditions too!"

Qian Renxue retorted anxiously.

"Provide them? What gives you the right to provide them?"

"Your current identity as the 'Heaven Dou Crown Prince'?"

Bibi Dong let out a disdainful scoff as she looked at Qian Renxue.

"I..."

Qian Renxue was completely speechless.

That was right. She was only an infiltrating pawn now, a false crown prince.

Forget mobilizing the empire's resources—she could not even reveal her own identity. What could she give Jiang Yu?

Other than a few verbal promises, she had nothing.

Seeing Qian Renxue completely suppressed and unable to fight back, a twisted sense of pleasure rose in Bibi Dong's heart.

That was exactly what she wanted—to strip Qian Renxue of the things she cared about, bit by bit.

Then, Bibi Dong turned to Jiang Yu, her tone softening somewhat.

"Jiang Yu, what is your choice?"

Qian Renxue's gaze immediately fixed on Jiang Yu nervously. She truly feared that he would leave with Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong, meanwhile, was brimming with confidence.

In Bibi Dong's view, the conditions she had offered were impossible for anyone in this world to refuse.

More importantly, being able to take away someone Qian Renxue valued right in front of her gave her a thrill that surpassed even gaining a genius.

Under Bibi Dong's confident gaze and Qian Renxue's worried stare, Jiang Yu took a deep breath before speaking.

"Thank you for thinking so highly of me, Your Holiness."

"However, I refuse."

"I am very satisfied with my current life."

Jiang Yu's brief words made his stance clear.

Moreover, Jiang Yu had given the decision to reject Bibi Dong careful consideration.

Jiang Yu still wanted to obtain immortal herbs! How could he go to Spirit Hall?

Besides, following Bibi Dong was not a good choice either.

"What!? You refuse!?"

"How dare you refuse! Do you know what you're refusing!?"

Bibi Dong's expression stiffened, and then she let out an uncharacteristically shrill roar.

Clearly, Bibi Dong simply could not accept this outcome.

Bibi Dong had imagined that Jiang Yu might haggle, or perhaps put on airs, but she had never imagined that Jiang Yu would refuse so cleanly and decisively!

Meanwhile, the instant Qian Renxue heard Jiang Yu's refusal, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The worry and helplessness in Qian Renxue's heart vanished completely, replaced by an unprecedented sense of triumph.

Qian Renxue abruptly straightened her back. Like a proud rooster that had won a battle, she once again stepped in front of Bibi Dong.

"Bibi Dong, did you hear that?"

"Please leave! You're not welcome here!"

Seeing her daughter so radiant and spirited, the fury in Bibi Dong's heart burned even hotter.

Still, Bibi Dong forcibly suppressed the resentment and rage in her heart and gave Jiang Yu one last look.

"Jiang Yu, what I said today will always stand."

"The doors of Spirit Hall will always be open to you."

With that, Bibi Dong turned and left.

Seeing Bibi Dong leave, Qian Renxue also let out a sigh of relief.

However, just then, Bibi Dong, who had only taken a few steps, suddenly stopped. Without looking back, she tossed out a single sentence.

"Jiang Yu, do you really think the person standing before you is Xue Qinghe, the Crown Prince of Heaven Dou?"

After saying that, Bibi Dong's figure completely vanished into the forest.

Hearing Bibi Dong's parting words, Qian Renxue's expression suddenly changed. She stared stiffly at Jiang Yu.

"Jiang Yu, I..."

Qian Renxue wanted to explain, but she did not know how to begin.

However, Jiang Yu merely smiled.

"Brother Xue... I don't care who you are. I only know that you're Brother Xue, the one willing to drink and eat meat with me. You're my friend, and that's enough!"

Hearing Jiang Yu's words, Qian Renxue was deeply moved, and a tear could not help but slip from her eye.

Was this what it felt like to be trusted, to have a friend!?

Behind a large tree several dozen meters away, Bibi Dong had not left at all. Instead, she was watching Jiang Yu and Qian Renxue.

When she saw that Jiang Yu did not care about Qian Renxue's identity, Bibi Dong's nails dug deeply into her flesh.

Why!

Why did Qian Renxue get to be happy!

Why could she have such unconditional trust and protection!

Why could her daughter so easily obtain everything she herself had longed for but could never have!

I will never allow it...

I will personally destroy all of it!

Bibi Dong screamed soundlessly in her heart.

"Little Brother Jiang Yu, don't worry! I'll help you deal with your cultivation matters!"

"If you have any problems, you can come to me as well!"

Qian Renxue said to Jiang Yu.

In Qian Renxue's view, Jiang Yu had given up Bibi Dong's generous offer for her sake, so she needed to make it up to him.

No matter what Jiang Yu asked for, Qian Renxue would do everything in her power to help him.

"Mm! I really do have something!"

"Brother Xue, could you help arrange a meeting with Poison Douluo?"

Jiang Yu thought for a moment before speaking.
