Bibi Dong Formally Becomes a Disciple, Is the Far North Next?
In the world of comics, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Several days later, two Sword Light landed in the courtyard behind the mountain.
"Could it be that the teacher has returned?"
Yu Xiaogang had just finished his cultivation and, upon hearing the commotion, quickly walked outside. However, when he saw the light purple figure beside Li Qingshan, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Bibi Dong?"
The girl looked at him, and the hand that had been gripping her sleeve slowly loosened, her eyes gradually reddening.
Did you receive my letter?
Yu Xiaogang nodded vigorously and quickly walked up to her. "After receiving the message, your teacher immediately set off for Spirit City to find you."
He looked the girl up and down, and seeing that she was safe and sound, he breathed a long sigh of relief, but then didn't know what to say first.
Bibi Dong looked at him and said softly, "My letter was a bit messy, and there were some things I didn't know how to say at the time."
"I know all that." Yu Xiaogang's voice tightened as he grasped Bibi Dong's slightly cool hand. "From now on, you can tell me anything you want to say."
Bibi Dong lowered her head and responded softly. Only now did her heart, which had been hanging in suspense since leaving Spirit City, truly settle down.
Li Qingshan and Chen Jianjun sat down at the stone table. His breathing had returned to normal, but there was still a hint of fatigue between his brows.
Upon seeing this, Yu Xiaogang quickly released Bibi Dong's hand, went to his teacher, and bowed solemnly, saying:
"Teacher, when I received the letter, I was only thinking that she had been wronged, but I didn't even know how to help her."
"You not only went to Spirit City in person, but you also brought her back."
As he said this, his throat tightened slightly.
"You've already done enough for your disciple, and now this matter has forced you and Senior Chen to travel and risk your lives..."
Upon hearing this, Li Qingshan raised his hand to support Yu Xiaogang's shoulder and said calmly:
"Xiao Gang, the things she mentioned in her letter shouldn't be her burden in the first place. My willingness to go is because I believe this girl is worthy of being taught and will be a good disciple."
"Now that she's here, you should help her get acquainted with the place. Prepare anything she needs and make sure she feels comfortable settling in."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang nodded seriously.
"This disciple has remembered."
Bibi Dong stepped forward, looked at Li Qingshan, and after a moment of silence, said softly, "Senior, when I wrote that letter, I just wanted to find someone to talk to."
"After sending it out, I was worried that Xiao Gang would be anxious if he saw it, but I didn't know what to do. I really didn't expect you to come."
"In Spirit City, you asked me if I wanted to go with you. I agreed quickly then because I really wanted to see Xiao Gang."
At this point, Bibi Dong raised her head, her gaze gradually becoming serious, "But later, I realized how much your willingness would cost you."
At this point, she suddenly took half a step back, straightened her clothes, and then knelt down before Li Qingshan.
Upon seeing this, Yu Xiaogang was slightly taken aback.
Bibi Dong, however, had already bowed her head in reverence.
"Disciple Bibi Dong greets Master."
"I didn't have time to perform the proper etiquette in Spirit City before, so please accept me as your disciple today. I will definitely learn everything you teach me diligently and never be perfunctory."
Li Qingshan looked at her, and a smile finally appeared on his face.
"Good."
He reached out and helped the girl up.
"Now that you've joined my sect, focus on your cultivation with me. If you encounter any problems in the future, feel free to come to me."
Bibi Dong nodded vigorously, but tears slid down her cheeks. She then bowed solemnly to Chen Jianjun, thanking the old man for his protection along the way.
"Haha, from now on you can focus on cultivating with Brother Li, and our trip will have been worthwhile."
Almost simultaneously, a golden Light Curtain unfolded before Li Qingshan's eyes.
[Congratulations, host! You have officially accepted Bibi Dong your disciple!]
[Received a reward for recruiting an apprentice: One piece of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow.]
Seeing this, Li Qingshan's eyes flickered slightly.
The reward for taking on apprentices remains small.
But the text on the panel changed again the next moment!
Bibi Dong has broken away from her original master, Qian Xunji, and left Spirit City. The pivotal encounter in her destiny, the 'Secret Chamber,' has been altered.
[The fate-altering reward has been issued!]
[Golden Dragon Spear!]
[The Hundred-Thousand-Year Death Spider Emperor Left Arm Bone!]
[Three God-bestowed Soul Ring!]
Upon seeing these three items, Li Qingshan's heart skipped a beat, and he could hardly contain the joy in his eyes.
Within the system space, a golden spear floated silently, its body adorned with clear dragon patterns, and its blade gleaming with a sharp luster.
Beside it, a purplish-black left arm bone radiated rich Soul Power, while the light of three God-bestowed Soul Ring slowly swirled around it.
"This disciple was worth taking on; it was worth the battle I had with that old bastard Qian Daoliu!"
With this acceptance of a disciple, Bibi Dong's life has truly embarked on a different path since leaving Spirit City.
The system naturally doesn't have to give only ordinary rewards like it did when it accepted Flender and Ning Fengzhi.
Li Qingshan's gaze quickly settled on the three God-bestowed Soul Rings, and he thought to himself:
"With the four God-bestowed Soul Ring I already have, I now have seven God-bestowed Soul Rings, so the Heartless Sword can be attached to its Seventh Soul Ring!"
"Once my Second Martial Soul also possesses Martial Soul Avatar, the range of methods I can employ will naturally be much greater than it is now."
As for that 100,000-year-old spider-like Soul Bone, it perfectly matches Bibi Dong's Death Spider Emperor; we'll find an opportunity to give it to her.
Li Qingshan put away the panel, not in a hurry to take out the reward, but his mind was already thinking further ahead.
"Next, who should I take as my apprentice?"
His identity as the Love Sword Douluo has been definitively confirmed, but he still needs to further explore his identity as the Golden Dragon King.
Thinking of this, Li Qingshan raised his hand and touched his chin, and a world covered in ice and snow suddenly appeared in his mind.
"The Far North, the Ice Empress, the Snow Empress..."
"If I could make contact with these two, I would have the opportunity to take them as disciples and also try to advance the Reality Progress of realizing my identity as the Golden Dragon King. However, they have cultivated for many years, so naturally they won't believe me based on just a few words."
Li Qingshan lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before noting the thought down.
After making arrangements for Bibi Dong, he planned to complete the Soul Ring of the Heartless Sword and then travel to the Far North.
On the other side, the Clear Sky Sect.
Tang Zhen has returned to the sect. Council Hall, several elders sat on both sides, their expressions somewhat solemn.
"Sect Master, has the Spirit Hall agreed to intervene?"
Tang Zhen slowly shook his head and said:
"Qian Xunji agreed to help us find our father and would also inquire with Qian Daoliu. As for directly confronting Li Qingshan, he did not agree."
Upon hearing this, an elder clenched his fist and said in a deep voice:
"Of the three elders, one is seriously injured and two are dead. Are we just supposed to wait for our uncle to return like this?"
Tang Zhen's expression was equally grim.
"Even with two retainers, Qian Xunji was defeated by this person. Even if we go to his door now, we have no chance of winning."
The hall fell silent immediately.
A moment later, another elder whispered, "Then we can only find the old sect leader as soon as possible."
Tang Zhen nodded, then pushed the old scrolls on the table over.
"Re-examine all the messages left by Father before and after he left the clan. Send people to verify any clues found in towns and ferry crossings along the way."
"I will also send people to keep an eye on Li Qingshan's whereabouts, but they are not allowed to take any action without authorization, and no one is allowed to touch his disciples."
As he finished speaking, Tang Zhen's voice turned somber. He looked out of the hall, but the hatred in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
"If we provoke another conflict now, it will be our people who die again."
"Until we find our father, we must swallow this anger. When he returns, the Clear Sky Sect will definitely avenge this blood debt!"
