The heavy doors of the secret chamber were blasted open directly by violent Soul Power, turning into debris.

Tang Yuehua, curled up under Qian Xunji and gripping the quilt, was first startled into a physiological shiver, and then hope blossomed in her heart.

Who is it? Is it Hao-ge? Is it my peerless hero? Have you come to save me? I don't want to stay in this den of monsters for even a single second!

Hao-ge! Save me! Take me away! The two of us will soar wing to wing from now on! I will take good care of your child! Your child is my child!

Qian Xunji, on the other hand, was so startled that his whole body shuddered, almost collapsing directly on top of Tang Yuehua. Do not think he had just looked so confident and in total control of Tang Yuehua, as he was actually feeling quite guilty inside.

After all, his conscience still bothered him just a tiny bit, and the last time a situation like this happened was on that night nine years ago...

Then there was also the thrill of an illicit affair. Even though he and Bibi Dong were estranged in their relationship, for all those countless years prior, he had always regarded Bibi Dong as his own beloved, though she simply refused to accept it.

Ever since his memories awakened, he completely realized that Bibi Dong was not someone he could possess. If he continued like before, I am afraid the internal factions of Spirit Hall would split apart once again.

Qian Xunji did not dare to turn back to see who it was precisely. Father? Bibi Dong? Or some oblivious wretch? Even Tang Hao? Or a Son of Destiny dropped from the heavens? All of them were possible.

Tang Yuehua was the first to look toward the doorway, and her originally excited and expectant gaze once again grew desolate.

It is not my Hao-ge...

Anyway, though, she could feel somewhat at ease; she should not be defiled by this lewd scoundrel tonight.

Qian Xunji finally could not help himself either, hardening his heart as he looked over.

Damn it, it was even more terrifying than he had imagined.

He saw two figures, one large and one small, standing hand in hand at the entrance.

Both of them were wearing sleepwear. Qian Renxue's white night robe loosely wrapped her petite frame, her long golden hair draped messily over her shoulders, and her reddened eyes stared straight at Qian Xunji, brimming with utter disbelief, anger, and a sense of injustice felt on behalf of her mother.

Father is actually such a person!

As for that tall figure, she had a head of purple hair, and her eyes were likewise reddened, filled completely with disbelief and heartbreak. The only difference between her and Qian Renxue was that Qian Renxue held mostly anger and dissatisfaction toward her father, glaring straight at Qian Xunji.

Bibi Dong, however, was heartbroken and desolate. She covered her eyes, not daring to look at all of this. Her entire body trembled as if she would faint from this heavy blow in the next second.

However, if one looked closely, the corners of her mouth were still curving upward just a tiny bit.

"Father! How could you do this! How are you worthy of Mother?! Just for some stinking woman from the Clear Sky Sect, you betrayed Mother! I don't love you anymore! I hate you!" Qian Renxue's small hand pointed tremblingly at the two of them.

Qian Renxue seemed to understand everything, understanding why Mother had treated her that way during those previous nine years. It must have been Father's fault! It was all Father's fault!

Bibi Dong remained with that utterly heartbroken appearance, picking up the outputting Xiao Xue and trembling as she pacified her.

"Xiao Xue, let's go. Don't bother Father. Today is entirely my fault. I shouldn't have brought you to find Father for a hug in the middle of the night. Blame it all on me. It was I who interrupted your father's good time, wuwu..."

If someone completely unaware of their relationship saw this scene, they would definitely feel immense pity for Bibi Dong—such a virtuous wife taking her daughter to find her husband for affection, only to discover that her husband was having an affair!

Seeing Bibi Dong's heartbroken appearance, Qian Renxue's anger toward Qian Xunji grew even more intense! Why is Father so bad? Mother is clearly so pretty, so beautiful, and so gentle. Yet Father actually wants to have an affair with this stinking woman from the Clear Sky Sect!

Bibi Dong sobbed as she hugged Qian Renxue, turned around, and walked outward.

"Xiao Xue, don't look. Don't bother Father anymore. Let's go back to sleep, alright? Be good, don't be angry with Father. It was all Mother's fault..."

Although Qian Renxue was held in Bibi Dong's arms, she still glared with her wide, reddened eyes, staring straight at Qian Xunji.

"Mother! Put me down! I'll help you chase away this stinking woman! I'll make Father apologize to you! I'll make Father swear never to wrong you again! I'm going to tell Grandfather and let Grandfather discipline Father!..."

"Xiao Xue, stop making a fuss! Wuwu! You can't tell Grandfather! This is Father's private business. If we tell Grandfather, Father will lose face. Don't make things difficult for Father." Bibi Dong sobbed while pacifying Xiao Xue.

Hearing Bibi Dong's comfort, Qian Renxue felt she was about to explode! Mother actually considered things so much for Father! Cared about Father this much! Yet Father still betrayed Mother!

No way! I have to protect Mother! No one is allowed to tear our family apart! Not even Father himself!

At this moment, however, Qian Xunji was still in a daze.

Does Bibi Dong care about me this much? Does she care about me this much? How come I had no idea?

"Xiao Xue, it's not what you think!" Qian Xunji wanted to explain, but he did not know how to explain it.

Qian Xunji hurriedly got up and got out of bed, walking to Bibi Dong's side and wanting to take Qian Renxue into his arms to comfort her, but Qian Renxue kept struggling, dodging away from Qian Xunji's embrace.

"Then what is it?! I saw it all?" Qian Renxue dodged Qian Xunji's embrace while continuously slapping Qian Xunji's arms, venting her dissatisfaction.

"It's... it's Father who wanted..." Qian Xunji truly could not think of any excuse.

Meanwhile, Bibi Dong, who had her back turned to Qian Xunji, could no longer conceal her smile and could only control herself so as not to make a sound.

Her trembling was indistinguishable as to whether it was from crying or from holding back her laughter.

Bibi Dong figured it was just about enough, so she carried Qian Renxue back to their bedroom.

Tang Yuehua, who had witnessed all of this, had long since forgotten about her Hao-ge. She felt as though she had discovered something extraordinary.

Is Spirit Hall this chaotic? The current Pope, Bibi Dong, has a child with the Eighth Worshipper? You must know that back then, rumors outside all said that Pope Qian Xunji treated Bibi Dong as a child bride.

No wonder she had heard almost no news of Bibi Dong over the past few years, and not a single shred of news about this Eighth Worshipper.

Could it be that they were ostracized by Qian Xunji because of their relationship?

Hiss~ She could not figure it out, but she should be safe tonight...

Watching Qian Xunji hesitating on the spot, Tang Yuehua, who had been scared half to death by him just moments ago, even felt a little like laughing.

Serves you right!

Still, she hoped the Pope and that little girl would not hold a grudge against her and make things difficult for her in the future, as she had also been forced into this!

After hesitating for a while, Qian Xunji chased after the two of them, leaving only Tang Yuehua lying all alone in this secret chamber without a door...

"Xiao Xue? Open the door~ I am your father too. Open the door for Father, alright? Everything just now was a misunderstanding..."

"No, no! Father, go away! Father is bad!"

After trying to open the door several times only to be refused, Qian Xunji had no other choice and simply sat down right there on the floor.

"Xiao Xue, Father is right outside, you know? If there is anything you need, look for Father and talk to Father!"

"Not needed!"
