Mother and Daughter Reunited?
"Who?"
The Hell Spirit Cat took a half step back, sensing a sudden aura appearing around it, and was immediately shocked!
Able to transcend his perception as a Soul Saint and instantly appear among the powerful figures around him...
At least Soul Douluo!!
Realizing this possibility, the man in black gritted his teeth and immediately turned to flee!
"Isn't it a bit too late to leave now?"
Bibi Dong's cold and gloomy voice rang out, causing the terrified man in black to turn his head sharply.
That haughty face, that cold and majestic countenance, that terrifying aura...
Pope Bibi Dong?!
How did you end up here?
The black-clad man, his eyes wide with disbelief, suddenly looked at the figure in white robes behind Lin Yue, and a thought exploded in his mind.
Yes, he had heard the rumor before, but never bothered with it...
Rumor has it that the Crown Prince of Heaven Dou Crown Prince underwent a drastic personality change and was no longer favored by the Heaven Dou Emperor. The truth, it turns out, is quite different!!
"You ants, die!"
As the enemy struggled to escape, Bibi Dong coldly raised her hand, and a streak of light shot out from it.
A chilling, sinister light shone into the man in black, instantly changing his appearance!
In the blink of an eye, before the Soul Saint could even utter a wail, he had already melted into a pool of poisonous water from the inside out!
Witnessing this scene with her own eyes, Qian Renxue trembled slightly, her mind now completely certain.
Who else but that woman could possess such terrifying power?!
But why is she here?
With her mind in turmoil, Qian Renxue's face paled slightly, her expression complex. But then she saw the boy who had been barely holding on suddenly collapse to the ground right in front of her!
"Lin Yue! How are you? Are you alright?"
Qian Renxue's expression changed, and she rushed forward in three steps, only to see that Lin Yue was barely breathing, as if he had already fainted.
"Don't worry, he's fine, he's just exhausted."
Bibi Dong spoke leisurely, stepping forward with her long, snow-white legs, and poured a bottle of medicine into Lin Yue's mouth.
Smelling the familiar scent emanating from that woman and seeing that face that seemed unchanged for over a decade, Qian Renxue pursed her lips, a strong sense of bitterness and sorrow welling up in her heart and at the tip of her nose.
Why are you here?
"..."
Bibi Dong remained silent, a complex expression flashing across her face. She turned her back, displaying an indifferent demeanor that indicated she didn't want to look at Qian Renxue any longer.
Upon seeing this, the girl's beautiful face turned deathly pale again, as if all the emotions in her heart had been dealt a heavy blow.
She remained the same as before, unwilling to show him even the slightest affection...
All the heartache, all the past pain, surged through her mind at this moment. Qian Renxue closed her eyes tightly, holding back the burning tears in them, and gritted her teeth, resolutely saying:
"You came here for that guy? You took him as your disciple just to drag him back to the Spirit Hall?"
"It's none of your business."
Bibi Dong bent down, stretched out her arms and embraced Lin Yue, as gently as if she were handling a fragile, rare treasure.
Upon witnessing this scene, all the gloom of the past erupted deep within Qian Renxue's heart!
That girl, that fox, was also so favored by this woman! She treated her like her own daughter!
Lin Yue is the same now; she'd rather take such good care of her apprentice than show any kindness to herself.
In an instant, a single scalding tear rolled down the girl's cool face, tracing its path, falling to the ground, and splashing into glistening droplets...
Bibi Dong, who had picked up Lin Yue, paused for a moment, seemingly letting out a soft and helpless sigh, before putting him down again.
The next instant, to Qian Renxue's incredulous gaze, the woman suddenly turned around—
An embrace I'd never experienced before, yet seemed to have appeared countless times in my dreams, pressed tightly against her face...
The girl, struck by lightning again, could no longer hold back her tears; large tears streamed down her face, completely soaking her exquisitely beautiful features...
"Get away from me! Get out!"
Qian Renxue roared inwardly in pain, but her hands involuntarily clenched the woman's robes, as if she wanted to bury her entire body into her.
The trembling girl gasped for breath, as if trying to memorize her scent, to remember the warmth and peace she felt in that moment...
But... this intoxicating warmth and happiness, like a poison, was ultimately fleeting.
In the blink of an eye, Bibi Dong, her face icy cold, pressed her hand against Qian Renxue's forehead again, pushing her several steps away, and said in a chilling voice:
"Alright, go do what you need to do."
After saying that, Bibi Dong turned around cleanly and neatly, picked up the boy on the ground, and quickly disappeared into the distance.
Staring blankly at the departing figure, Qian Renxue lowered her head, tears silently falling.
She never once looked at him directly...
But why... why show such tenderness to yourself when you're in despair?
Why offer this kind of affection, which she could never have dreamed of when she was young, as a form of comfort during her time of such pain?
Countless complex and bitter memories swirled within her, causing Qian Renxue, who was slumped on the ground, to purse her red lips and sob softly.
"Young Master! Are you alright?"
In the blink of an eye, the two Title Douluo Pufferfish and Snake Lance arrived, their faces contorted in shock upon seeing Qian Renxue's dejected expression and swollen, red eyes, and then at the corpse beside her that had turned into a pool of blood.
"Young Master, where is Lin Yue?"
The assassin who came to kill him has vanished without a trace, but Lin Yue is nowhere to be found either. Could it be...?
Looking at the pool of blood on the ground, both the Pufferfish and the Snake Lance turned pale, hurriedly knelt on one knee, lowered their heads, and dared not utter a sound.
It was because they were too late in rescuing him that Lin Yue was able to...
"It's alright, let's go back."
Wiping away the tears on her face, Qian Renxue clenched her fists, her expression resolute once more!
Regardless of what that woman is thinking or what she intends to do, she will follow her own path and carry out the teachings of the Angel God!
To revitalize the empire, unify the continent, and bring peace and hope to every Soul Master! This is her destiny as the heir of the Qian Family and the successor of the Six-Winged Angel! It will never change!!
However, as Qian Renxue led the two Titled Douluo back to the Crown Prince's palace, her gaze still involuntarily drifted towards the direction Bibi Dong had left...
Deep within the girl's eyes lay an undeniable sense of loss and resentment...
"Phew... we finally escaped... thankfully, Qian Renxue didn't expose her identity."
After being quickly carried away from Qian Renxue by Bibi Dong, Lin Yue finally raised his head, broke free from his feigned death state, and lightly leaped away from the soft and fragrant embrace.
"Speaking of which, Ah Yin's 'Yama's Invitation' is really useful. Looks like I'll have to help Ah Yin train with a few more poisonous herbs next time, and see if I can make even more good stuff."
Lin Yue stretched his rapidly recovering body, downed another bottle of Soul Power Potion, and then raised his head to look at Bibi Dong beside him.
"By the way, I didn't tell you to carry Qian Renxue before, why did you carry out that order yourself?"
"I don't know, perhaps it's the emotion held by the person who possesses this soul?"
The Bibi Dong Doll stretched out her palm, examining herself, a complex expression flashing across her face...
