Xiao Wu Learns of Bibi Dong's Past

"Think it's absurd? I thought it was pretty absurd too, but that's the truth."

Gu En offered no further explanation. He slowly closed his eyes, and the blue trident mark between his brows suddenly lit up.

The god-level spiritual power of the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud activated instantly.

Gu En then made some simple edits to the memories in his mind concerning Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang's past from the original story.

They transformed directly into a spiritual projection and were forcibly driven into Xiao Wu's sea of consciousness!

"Ah!"

Xiao Wu had no time to react and could only be forced to accept the information.

Xiao Wu clutched her head in agony. Then, one crystal-clear scene after another flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern.

She saw the young Bibi Dong. Back then, Bibi Dong did not yet possess the coldness and malice she had now.

Her smile was pure and radiant as she nestled against the young Yu Xiaogang, her eyes overflowing with love that could not be dissolved.

She saw Spirit Hall's secret chamber. She saw Qian Xunji's beastly face. She saw Bibi Dong's cries and shattered despair.

She saw Bibi Dong endure heart-rending agony to protect Yu Xiaogang's life, putting on a cold and heartless act as she told him, "I never loved you."

But the scene that disgusted and enraged Xiao Wu the most was this one.

After being "broken up with," Yu Xiaogang in the vision did not investigate the truth behind it or attempt to win her back.

He cared only that his pride had been wounded. He left Spirit Hall, then not long afterward, took it for granted that he could throw himself into the arms of another woman, Liu Erlong.

"Did you see it clearly?"

Gu En cut off the spiritual projection and looked at Xiao Wu, who had collapsed onto the ground and was gasping for breath.

Xiao Wu's chest heaved violently. Her rabbit ears were pressed tightly against the back of her head, while shock, disgust, and uncontrollable fury tangled in her eyes.

She hated Bibi Dong to the bone because Bibi Dong had killed her mother.

But after witnessing those memories, her disgust toward Yu Xiaogang had reached the point of physical nausea!

A woman had sacrificed her innocence, reputation, and a lifetime of happiness to protect him.

Yet this cowardly man had shamelessly enjoyed playing the victim, taking the knowledge he had copied from Spirit Hall and seeking comfort from another woman.

"Ungrateful wretch... coward... utterly disgusting trash!"

Xiao Wu gritted her teeth, every word seeming to squeeze through the gaps between them.

"That's right. And yet this piece of trash is treasured by your mother's killer as if he were something priceless."

Gu En rose to his feet and slowly walked over to Xiao Wu.

He looked down at this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, whose entire body trembled with hatred.

His voice was like a devil's whisper from the abyss, carrying fatal temptation.

"Xiao Wu, with your current strength, you'll never be able to defeat Bibi Dong in this lifetime."

Gu En bent slightly and leaned close to Xiao Wu's ear, speaking in a low voice.

"Since you can't fight Bibi Dong right now, then... why not beat up her lover instead?"

Xiao Wu abruptly raised her head and stared fixedly at Gu En.

"Yu Xiaogang is in my hands now. I've already crippled his soul power."

Gu En straightened and pointed outside the door.

"I'll hand him over to you. You can even vent your hatred for Bibi Dong and Spirit Hall on this piece of trash a thousandfold, ten thousandfold."

"You can break his bones, skin him alive, and make him wish he were dead."

"As long as you leave him with one breath."

Gu En looked into Xiao Wu's eyes as they gradually became bloodshot and glowed with frightening red light. The smile on his lips grew increasingly intense.

"Well, little rabbit? Are you satisfied with this gift?"

Xiao Wu sat sprawled on the cold stone floor, Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang's past still churning endlessly through her mind.

As a woman, when she saw what Bibi Dong had endured, a faint, almost imperceptible trace of pity did flicker in the depths of her heart.

But that pity lasted only an instant before being crushed by deeper reason and hatred.

"Pity? Forgivable? That's simply idiotic beyond belief!"

Xiao Wu sneered coldly in her heart.

Who was Bibi Dong?

She was the saintess whom Spirit Hall had poured every resource into cultivating, Spirit Hall's future pope!

She enjoyed the highest resources and status on the entire continent, yet she had been thinking only of eloping with the direct heir of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the Three Upper Sects, a force hostile to Spirit Hall?

In the eyes of any faction, such conduct was an unforgivable betrayal!

Bibi Dong's fate had certainly been tragic, but half of it had been brought upon herself by that foolish lovesick brain of hers.

Besides, no matter how pitiful Bibi Dong was, she was still the murderer who had cruelly killed her mother!

The murder of one's mother was an irreconcilable hatred. No excuse could ever whitewash it!

As for Yu Xiaogang...

Xiao Wu's gaze became incomparably disgusted.

She would not feel the slightest guilt about beating this man.

A fraud who falsified his scholarship and polished his own reputation by plagiarizing Spirit Hall's top-secret archives.

A scumbag who knew nothing when his lover was suffering, yet turned around at the first setback and immediately threw himself into another woman's arms, recklessly toying with others' feelings.

A weak piece of trash who could only wag his tail and beg for mercy when danger came!

Most importantly, this piece of trash was the man Bibi Dong, that lofty enemy who had killed her mother, had cherished in her heart and loved for an entire lifetime!

"I agree."

Xiao Wu took a deep breath and slowly rose from the ground.

A heart-palpitating madness and brutality burned in her crimson eyes.

"Very good."

Gu En snapped his fingers in satisfaction.

With a soft click, the silver spatial shackles locked around Xiao Wu's wrists and ankles instantly vanished.

Xiao Wu had only just felt her entire body lighten, before she could even move her aching joints, when Gu En's right hand suddenly clenched in the air.

Whoosh—

A pale white bone chain, formed from sharp dragon bones linked end to end, shot from Gu En's palm like a venomous snake leaving its den.

With a sharp crack, the bone chain precisely coiled around Xiao Wu's slender, fair neck, locking seamlessly into a bone collar.

The chain emitted frigid spatial cutting power. With but a thought from Gu En, the bone lock could instantly slice off her head cleanly.

Xiao Wu stiffened, instinctively raising both hands to grasp the bone chain around her neck and tugging hard.

But the chain was as solid as divine iron and did not budge in the slightest. Instead, it left a red mark around her neck.

She abruptly looked up and glared at Gu En furiously.

"Don't look at me like that."

Gu En held the other end of the bone chain and casually played with it.

"You're a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, after all. Although your soul power has been sealed, your physical strength remains."

"What if you go mad and try to bite me? I need a leash to walk a dog, don't I?"
