The woman who appeared in the room had truly caught Luo Xuan off guard.
He knew Bibi Dong would definitely notice the anomalies he had displayed.
He just had not expected Bibi Dong to come so quickly.
She had bypassed Chrysanthemum Douluo and appeared directly before him.
With things like this, Luo Xuan had no choice but to obediently enter the room.
The mature woman sat on the edge of the bed with her legs crossed, staring at the little boy before her.
Well, little...
No matter how he looked at this scene, something felt off.
However, Luo Xuan was in no mood to think about such nonsense.
The moment he stepped into the room, Bibi Dong released the pressure of a Titled Douluo upon him.
That momentary release of pressure alone made Luo Xuan realize just how vast the gap was between him and a top-tier powerhouse like a Titled Douluo.
The Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo rarely exposed their auras around him and had always treated Luo Xuan kindly.
That had left him lacking the proper awe for Titled Douluo.
Especially after the Chat Group appeared, the weight Titled Douluo held in his heart had diminished even further.
Now, Luo Xuan clearly understood that even in a low-tier fantasy world, top powerhouses were not people he could challenge yet.
Even with the Nine-Character True Words.
Still, thanks to Bibi Dong's welcoming gift, Luo Xuan was not only unafraid—he had become even more clear-headed.
"I will reach that level sooner or later!"
Luo Xuan's reaction made Bibi Dong regard him more highly.
There were far too few people who did not show cowardice before her, the Pope.
"Kid, what did Yue Guan feed you? How did you rise from innate Rank Three Soul Power to Rank Nineteen?" Bibi Dong went straight to the point.
She leaned forward slightly, making the pressure Luo Xuan felt even greater.
They really were enormous.
"Greetings, Your Holiness. I do not know exactly what happened either. Uncle Yue only gave me something to eat, and when I woke up after sleeping, I had broken through to Rank Ten."
Luo Xuan lowered his head and spoke respectfully.
Yet inwardly, he swore that the head he lowered now would be repaid double upon Bibi Dong in the future.
Hearing this, Bibi Dong nodded to herself. She also felt that was likely the case.
What could a little brat possibly know?
He must have relied on Yue Guan's care.
"Seems I underestimated the flowers and herbs Yue Guan grows."
Even though she believed that was the truth, Bibi Dong still wore a cold and stern expression.
Rather than question Yue Guan, she might as well obtain some information from Luo Xuan first.
"Kid, do you take me for a fool? You drank it, yet you do not know what it was?"
Luo Xuan inwardly cursed, "You're the dumbest woman on the entire Douluo Continent, and you still think you aren't foolish?"
Naturally, he would never dare say that aloud.
Unless he had a death wish.
"Your Holiness, everything was prepared by Uncle Yue. I know nothing."
Luo Xuan was practically telling Bibi Dong outright that if she had questions, she should go find Yue Guan instead of bothering him.
He did not know whether Bibi Dong understood that or not.
The Soul Power around her erupted once more, pressing down upon Luo Xuan.
Luo Xuan clenched his teeth and circulated his Soul Power to resist the pressure.
"Kid, you still aren't being honest."
Bibi Dong thoroughly demonstrated what it meant to say, I am strong, so I am right.
Though the Soul Power she released this time was not as strong as before,
it still possessed the intensity of a Rank Fifty Soul King.
He was only Rank Nineteen right now.
As the pressure of her Soul Power continued rising, Bibi Dong became increasingly startled.
"This brat looks like he is about to collapse, yet he has endured until now? What kind of herb could possibly be this miraculous?"
She suddenly felt that her earlier conclusion had been too hasty.
Recalling Luo Xuan's performance in battle,
she found more and more things that did not add up.
This brat's Martial Soul was only a pair of fists. How had he blocked Yan's attacks without suffering a single injury?
At first, she had been too shocked by his tremendous Soul Power growth to think deeply about it.
She had assumed everything was due to Yue Guan's medicinal herbs.
Now that she had calmed down and thought it through, this brat seemed to be hiding quite a few secrets!
With that thought, Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes and carefully examined the little fellow she had initially overlooked.
His complexion was much better than the pale appearance she had seen in the reports.
He no longer carried his former scholarly air either. Instead, he resembled a sharp sword concealing its edge.
She had to admit that although Luo Xuan was still young and had not fully grown up, he was much more handsome than her beloved Little Gang.
But that was not important.
"What could change a person so completely?" Bibi Dong pondered inwardly.
Luo Xuan had no idea what she was thinking.
His eyes gleamed, and rather than becoming angry, he was delighted.
Thanks to Bibi Dong's Soul Power pressure, he had touched the threshold of Rank Twenty.
He would soon break through to Rank Twenty.
Just like Tang San in the original story when Zhi Lin of Heaven Dou Royal Academy pressured him with Soul Power.
His Martial Soul had long since revealed itself under the Soul Power pressure.
However, he still suppressed his External Soul Bone with all his might, terrified that it might be exposed.
Even while Bibi Dong was thinking, she did not forget to continuously increase the Soul Power pressure.
Finally.
The blockage within Luo Xuan broke open, and his Soul Power naturally surged through to Rank Twenty.
He glared at Bibi Dong with burning eyes. "Next... it is my turn!"
Bibi Dong froze in place and blinked.
What was going on? He had merely broken through to Rank Twenty, yet this brat dared provoke her, a Titled Douluo?
Was she insane, or was this brat insane?
Her expression immediately turned cold. She was no kind-hearted person.
Since Luo Xuan dared speak to her that way, even if she did not kill him, she would still make him suffer!
Luo Xuan only dared say that because, when he fabricated the Future Video last time,
he had learned that no matter how much time passed while he was creating a Future Video, only a single breath passed outside.
That was enough time for him to pull Bibi Dong into the Chat Group.
Under the Chat Group's rules, he would be able to escape danger.
Though Yue Guan would suffer afterward.
Since Bibi Dong could not deal with Luo Xuan, it went without saying where she would vent her rage.
Luo Xuan was not worried about Yue Guan's safety. After all, Bibi Dong currently only had the Chrysanthemum Ghosts at her disposal, and they were useful.
Yue Guan: You really are such a good child.
As for why he had not pulled Bibi Dong into the Chat Group from the start,
it was naturally because he needed Bibi Dong to serve as the spark that would push him into Rank Twenty.
Otherwise, he would have used the opportunity from his Rank Ten breakthrough to fabricate the future and pull Bibi Dong into the group long ago.
He was also saving a trump card for himself.
After all, pulling people into the Chat Group did not require their consent.
It was simply the best choice when facing danger brought by women.
He would not fear even god-level women.
It just would not work against male gods.
That was also why Luo Xuan had not yet considered how to kill Tang San.
After all, who knew whether there were gods behind him?
Besides, letting Tang San die so easily would be letting him off too lightly.
Of course, Luo Xuan did not want to pull Bibi Dong into the Chat Group so soon either.
The way he obtained rewards required the group members' acknowledgment.
That madwoman Bibi Dong was like a hidden bomb. He could not imagine what she might do.
What if she deliberately refused to believe it and held up his reward?
The obsession in her heart would not be so easy to resolve.
[Detected that the host has broken through to Rank Twenty. Reward: one opportunity to fabricate the future and pull group members.] [The host currently possesses two opportunities. Use one?]
"Use it! Use it now!"
He had already talked big. If he delayed any longer, he would lose his life.
Bibi Dong's reaction just now had given him a sense of satisfaction.
Once he pulled Bibi Dong into the group, he would feel even better.
[Three group members are pulled each time. Please choose...]
Without even thinking, Luo Xuan added Bibi Dong.
This pull was specifically for Bibi Dong.
As for the other two, he had already decided.
"Pull Bibi Dong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong."
[...Pulling group members. Please wait.]
Other than Bibi Dong, Luo Xuan had chosen the other two only after careful consideration.
Zhu Zhuqing was the youngest of the Shrek Seven Monsters.
It probably would not be long before she awakened her Martial Soul.
By then, it would also be time for Dai Mubai to run away.
Young girls like her were easier to fool... easier to persuade, making it easier for him to obtain feedback rewards.
The same went for Ning Rongrong.
He had revealed his first millennium Soul Ring in the Star Dou Great Forest.
He had also made a deal with Ning Fengzhi. If Ning Rongrong knew that Luo Xuan was a transmigrator,
then it would be perfectly reasonable for Luo Xuan to know the effects of Whale Rubber, would it not?
Otherwise, so many people had consumed Whale Rubber.
Why was Luo Xuan the only one who had discovered its use?
Under such circumstances, they would be more inclined to believe the things revealed in the Future Video.
Meanwhile, Bibi Dong, who had been preparing to make a move against Luo Xuan, instantly underwent a drastic change in expression.
Someone was actually speaking inside her mind.
[Congratulations on joining Luo Xuan's Future Wings Group.]
