Bibi Dong, Everyone's Favorite Target?!

Inside Spirit Hall's Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong reclined against the lavish throne, her long, shapely legs wrapped in black stockings casually crossed, making her appear both languid and noble.

Seeing the newcomer's question, Bibi Dong's red lips parted slightly, revealing a trace of smugness.

Her Holiness the Pope: [Indeed, it is this Pope.]

Bibi Dong felt immensely satisfied.

See? This was the attitude one ought to have toward the Pope.

Unlike those other girls in the group, who had no manners whatsoever.

I Have No Mother: [Oh? Her Holiness the Pope is showing off in front of a newcomer again. Aren't you ashamed?]

Gentle Fire Dragon: [What's so great about being the Pope? Doesn't she still have to obediently listen to the group leader?]

Poison Fairy: [Exactly, exactly. Don't be afraid, little sister. The group leader is the strongest.]

Bibi Dong gritted her silver teeth in fury as she read their mockery.

Her Holiness the Pope: [Are you all itching for a beating?]

Ye Lingling began quickly scrolling through the group's chat history.

When she saw the revelations about Tang San secretly stealing martial arts in his previous life, murdering the gatekeeper, and even harboring murderous intentions toward Yu Xiaogang, Ye Lingling felt a chill run through her heart.

"That Tang San was actually such a despicable person?"

"And Yu Xiaogang was actually a fraud who stole fame under false pretenses."

Next, Ye Lingling saw further revelations concerning Yu Xiaogang.

"The group leader really is omniscient and omnipotent..."

"He even knows all these secrets that no one else knows."

What made Ye Lingling's heart race even more was that Bibi Dong had actually received a reward increasing the age of her Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring just by posting a photo in the group.

"Nine-Heart Begonia..."

"Only two people from each generation can survive. It is a curse that our lineage cannot escape."

"If the group leader truly knows everything and can do anything, could he also help me break this curse?"

At that thought, Ye Lingling's breathing grew rapid.

The crushing burden that had weighed on her heart for so long seemed to reveal a hope of release at this moment.

Ye Lingling continued scrolling through the chat history.

Soon, a photograph appeared on the screen.

It showed a pair of flawless long legs, black stockings tightly encasing their smooth, rounded lines and radiating endless temptation.

The background of the photo was the Papal Palace.

Ye Lingling's cheeks instantly flushed bright red, and even her ears turned crimson.

"Th-this really was Her Holiness the Pope's photo?"

"The lofty Pope actually posted this kind of photo in the group..."

Ye Lingling lowered her head and looked at her own equally slender legs, her hands helplessly clutching the hem of her clothes.

For her family, for the sake of breaking that damned curse.

She had to endure even this bit of shame.

Ye Lingling took a deep breath, gathered her courage, and tagged Bibi Dong in the group.

Mute Little Sister: [@Her Holiness the Pope, um... Your Holiness, do I need to post something like this too??]

Spirit Hall.

Inside the resplendent Papal Palace, the light was somewhat dim.

Bibi Dong sat upright upon the massive papal throne. A faint blush flashed across her fair cheeks, while the corners of her mouth twitched violently several times.

Her once dignified, noble, otherworldly bearing vanished completely in that instant.

"Why was this newcomer so loose-lipped?"

Bibi Dong muttered to herself inwardly, feeling so embarrassed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Earlier, in order to receive the reward increasing the age of her Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring, Bibi Dong had been forced to cast aside the Pope's dignity and share a photo in the group.

She had thought the matter was over. Who could have expected a newly joined member to bring it up to her face now?

Even Bibi Dong found the black-stockinged long legs in that photograph unbearably embarrassing whenever she recalled them.

Now that a newcomer had publicly exposed it, this was practically a challenge to the Pope's authority.

Her Holiness the Pope: [This Pope did it to set an example for the group members. Do not speak nonsense, girl.]

Though the words were forceful, they carried an unmistakable hint of panic and embarrassed anger.

Loves Carrots: [Hahaha, I'm dying. The new little sister is amazing—one sentence and she left Her Holiness the Pope at a loss for words.]

Little Witch: [Hahaha, so even Her Holiness the Pope has a day like this. You've thoroughly embarrassed yourself now, haven't you? This is so satisfying.]

Fragrant Fox: [Hehe, stop trying to keep up appearances. We're all girls here. What's so surprising about posting a photo?]

My Cat Is White and Big: [It is rather funny. The new little sister has good taste.]

The entire Chat Group was instantly flooded with laughter and teasing.

At Heaven Dou Royal Academy, in the middle of a tree-lined path.

Chen Feng stood quietly, watching the messages rapidly scroll across the illusory screen before him, a pleased smile appearing on his face.

The Chat Group's activity was soaring at an astonishing rate.

I thought she was a cold and withdrawn mute little sister. Who would have expected her to be so active in the group? What a surprise.

Chen Feng muttered to himself inwardly, greatly satisfied with the result of this invitation.

In reality, Ye Lingling was icy and taciturn, but in the Chat Group, she seemed adorably airheaded and even said shocking things from time to time.

This stark contrast in her personality struck Chen Feng as quite interesting.

Nearby, Dugu Yan was using soul power to stabilize Shi Yan's injuries.

However, Dugu Yan's attention was actually focused on secretly observing Ye Lingling's every move.

Poison Fairy: [Why does this new Mute Little Sister give me such a familiar feeling?]

Dugu Yan sent a questioning message to the group.

I Have No Mother: [Everyone's identity in the group is anonymous. As long as you don't voluntarily expose yourself, no one can figure it out. Except for a certain self-righteous woman who announced who she was the moment she joined. She's utterly foolish.]

Inside the Heaven Dou Empire's imperial palace, Qian Renxue looked at the words on the screen and sneered repeatedly.

Toward that person in Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue felt nothing but endless resentment, so naturally she would not miss any chance to mock her.

Qian Renxue could even imagine Bibi Dong fuming with rage inside the Papal Palace.

Qian Renxue would absolutely not pass up an opportunity to make Bibi Dong suffer.

Gentle Fire Dragon: [That's right. New little sister, don't pay attention to that bitch. Say whatever you want in the group. With the group leader protecting you, no one can do anything to you.]

Inside Spirit Hall.

Bibi Dong's face turned ashen with rage as she slammed a palm against the throne's armrest.

"These two bitches who don't know their place! If I could pinpoint your locations through the group, this Pope would tear you to pieces and throw you into Ten Thousand Beasts Gorge to feed the spirit beasts!"

Bibi Dong cursed inwardly, her exquisite face filled with frost as her chest heaved violently.

Tianshui Academy.

Shui Bing'er watched the fierce verbal battle in the group and patted her chest, calming her frayed nerves.

"The sisters in this group are too terrifying. They even dare insult the Pope so casually."

"Luckily, my nickname hasn't exposed my identity. They probably won't find me, right?"

Shui Bing'er secretly rejoiced and decided she should keep a low profile in the group from now on, lest she invite trouble.

After all, Tianshui Academy could not withstand Spirit Hall's wrath.

Meanwhile, Ye Lingling at Heaven Dou Royal Academy also had the corners of her mouth twitching, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

She had originally believed that the Pope of Spirit Hall was an untouchable supreme existence who held the power of life and death over the world. Who would have thought that in the group, she had become everyone's favorite target?
