Qian Daoliu: Xunji Should Have Killed Her Back Then! Bibi Dong: Raise Me? He Had Other Motives!

Golden Crocodile Douluo sighed softly:

"Big Brother, regarding what happened to Xunji back then... do you still think he was wrong?"

Qian Daoliu slowly opened his eyes. There was no pity in them, only cold rationality:

"Second Brother, do you think I believe Xunji should not have laid a hand on her?

"No, there was nothing wrong with him stopping Bibi Dong."

Golden Crocodile Douluo paused slightly but said nothing.

Standing with his hands behind his back, Qian Daoliu looked at the Ranking Screen and snorted coldly:

"That Yu Xiaogang was nothing more than trash who could not even break through Level 30.

"Relying on a few cobbled-together theories, he wanted to lure away the Twin Martial Souls Saintess whom Spirit Hall had poured countless resources into cultivating.

"Bibi Dong had been young and ignorant back then, her mind muddled by so-called love between men and women. She had actually intended to leave Spirit Hall for the sake of a piece of trash.

"As Pope, Xunji had every right to use whatever means necessary to keep her for Spirit Hall's future. I would never oppose that."

"Then where did Xunji go wrong?"

Mighty Lion Douluo could not help asking.

"He was not ruthless enough. He went wrong in the way he did it!"

Qian Daoliu's voice suddenly dropped, carrying a furious edge of disappointment:

"After Xue'er was born, he should have killed Bibi Dong immediately and eradicated the root of the problem!"

The several worshippers in the hall were all shaken.

Qian Daoliu closed his eyes, his tone grim:

"Xunji had ultimately taken pity on her. He thought that with Xue'er, he could bind her heart to him, and he even allowed her to retain her status as Saintess.

"But he forgot that Bibi Dong was a spider, a venomous woman who would devour her own master!

"If he had not spared her back then, how could he have ended up with nothing but a mangled corpse after Tang Hao gravely wounded him and he was carried back to the hall,

"Only for that madwoman to find her chance and kill him?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo drew a deep breath and said solemnly:

"Big Brother is absolutely right.

"If one does not eradicate the roots, disaster will return.

"Now she is already Level 98 and has even begun the Rakshasa Seventh Trial.

"Spirit Hall's ten-thousand-year foundation has ultimately fallen into the hands of a woman who hates the Qian Clan."

"This is karma."

Watching the images continue to flicker across the Ranking Screen, Qian Daoliu's voice was icy to the bone:

"Since the Ranking Screen wants to expose this, let Xue'er see why the father she has always resented did what he did.

"Let the world see just how foolish and mad this lofty Pope had been back then!"

The scene on the Ranking Screen shifted once more.

Spirit City, Papal Hall.

In the image, the young but already radiant Bibi Dong wore a magnificent purple Saintess robe and a dazzling violet-gold crown.

Under the bowed gazes of numerous Titled Douluo, she slowly walked toward the Papal Throne.

Qian Xunji stood beside the throne and personally placed the Saintess Scepter, symbolizing supreme authority, into her hands.

[At age 12, she was appointed Saintess of Spirit Hall, showered with endless favor and given unlimited access to the continent's finest resources.]

The scenes flashed past rapidly:

Mountains of rare medicinal herbs, Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones glowing faintly, several Titled Douluo taking turns to guide her cultivation.

Even every Soul Ring she acquired had been personally overseen by Qian Xunji, who led several peak experts deep into the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for them.

Watching such an extravagantly lavish cultivation process on the Ranking Screen, Soul Masters across the entire Douluo Continent erupted.

"My heavens, is this how Spirit Hall treated its Saintess?

"They practically placed the treasures of the entire continent before her alone!"

"They gave her Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones just like that, and Titled Douluo guarded her at close range... no wonder she advanced so quickly."

"The previous Pope truly treated her unbelievably well. She was clearly being raised as the future successor."

Within Shrek Academy.

Tang San looked at the Ranking Screen, then turned toward Yu Xiaogang, whose expression was complicated, and spoke quietly:

"Teacher, Spirit Hall truly spared no expense on her back then.

"With resources piled up like that, it is no wonder they produced an unparalleled expert with Twin Martial Souls."

Yu Xiaogang shut his eyes in pain, his hands trembling faintly:

"Yes. Dong'er was the most dazzling daughter of heaven on the entire continent back then.

"I thought our love could transcend such worldly wealth and status.

"But I overlooked the expectations of all Spirit Hall that she carried on her shoulders..."

"Expectations?"

Dai Mubai could not help curling his lip as he muttered under his breath.

"Master, no offense, but Spirit Hall paid such a terrifying price to raise her.

"If she had really run off with someone, would Spirit Hall not have lost everything?"

Heaven Dou City, within the Crown Prince's Residence.

Qian Renxue stared fixedly at the Ranking Screen, her nails digging deeply into her palms. Her voice was as cold as ice:

"She enjoyed Spirit Hall's highest luxuries, getting whatever she wanted.

"Yet I had to disguise myself as a man in the Heaven Dou Empire and infiltrate it cautiously for twenty whole years!

"What right did she have to hate Spirit Hall?

"What right did she have to hate my father?"

Snake Lance Douluo sighed from beside her:

"Young Master, the Pope's treatment back then was indeed unprecedented.

"The Grand Worshipper and the previous Pope had practically poured Spirit Hall's ten-thousand-year reserves into her."

Within the Worship Hall.

Golden Crocodile Douluo looked at the Ranking Screen, snorted angrily, and slammed his cane hard against the ground:

"Big Brother, look at this!

"Back then, to find the Devouring Soul Spider Emperor Spirit Bone best suited for her, Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother risked their lives fighting those Fierce Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest. They nearly lost their lives!

"But what was the result?

"In that woman's eyes, everything Spirit Hall gave her was actually worth less than a piece of trash who could not even break through Level 30!"

Although Fierce Beasts such as Di Tian had remained dormant for a long time,

Spirit Hall, with its inheritance spanning twenty thousand years, was no stranger to their existence.

Qian Daoliu remained expressionless, but his eyes grew ever colder:

"This is why I said Xunji was not wrong to stop her.

"Spirit Hall exhausted every resource to cultivate its future leader,

"Only for her to take countless secrets and untold painstaking efforts from our hall and throw herself at an abandoned son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

"No sect could tolerate such betrayal.

"She enjoyed the glory and benefits of being Saintess, yet refused to shoulder the responsibilities of a Saintess. How could there be such a bargain in this world?"

Within the Papal Hall.

Bibi Dong looked at her younger self on the Ranking Screen, so innocent and proud, yet an utterly twisted cold smile appeared on her face:

"Resources?

"Luxury and glory?"

Yue Guan trembled at her side, not daring to say a word.

Bibi Dong abruptly rose to her feet. Her scepter smashed heavily against the floor with a muffled boom:

"Every scrap of resources Qian Xunji gave me had a price secretly marked upon it!

"What he wanted was never an outstanding disciple.

"He wanted a perfect breeding tool capable of passing down the Six-Winged Angel's God Rank bloodline for the Qian Clan!

"He dressed me in the most magnificent clothes only to lock me inside a golden cage he had built with his own hands!"

At that moment, the scene on the Ranking Screen suddenly darkened.

The formerly peaceful golden light was instantly shrouded beneath a stifling gloom.

The Bibi Dong in the image had already grown into a graceful young woman.

And beside her, the figure of a young man began to appear.

It was Yu Xiaogang in his youth.
