[Bibi Dong licked Gu Xingzhou's feet, so...]
[Gu Xingzhou is next??]
[Wait, we get to eat this well?]
[o(╥﹏╥)o]
[Just a reminder: Bibi Dong's feet never touched the ground the whole time~]
[???]
[666, you sure know how to ruin the mood.]
[What if they aren't dainty feet?]
[Huh? Not dainty feet? Can they really broadcast that?]
[Elite Livestream Room]
[Ma Hongjun: There's still... enough material for two more episodes!]
[Ning Rongrong: Surely it won't be what the Ordinary Livestream Room guessed, with Gu Xingzhou doing... that to the Pope instead?]
[Dai Mubai: Going by the livestream room's style, it probably won't repeat an act. That'd make for a weaker show.]
[Bai Chenxiang: They've already done the Heimlich Maneuver, Artificial Respiration, and sucking out poison. I honestly can't think of any more emergency rescue theater scenarios...]
[Oscar: Besides, the Pope is so powerful. Could there really be a plot where she needs Gu Xingzhou to save her?]
[Xue Beng: What's so hard about that? They're making it all up anyway.]
[Ning Rongrong: But that Ma Xiunuo said Gu Xingzhou's background was real, and Tang San and the Grandmaster really are master and disciple. That means these fan creations have some basis in reality.]
Meanwhile.
Bibi Dong, who had just been immersed in that tender mother-and-son scene, instantly came to her senses and grew nervous.
The livestream room's reminder brought back her identity as the Pope—and the scene of her licking Gu Xingzhou's feet.
Now the discussion was full of guesses that Gu Xingzhou would do the same thing to her. How could she not be nervous?!
If it were only foot-licking, she could bear it. What frightened her most was something even more outrageous...
The livestream room had never said it couldn't broadcast anything worse. Its goal was to shock everyone to death; who knew whether it had any bottom line at all?
As she waited in suspense...
The ink painting scroll rearranged itself once more.
[Bibi Dong's "Emergency Rescue Theater" officially begins.]
[Continuing the current scene...]
As the scroll changed, the livestream perspective immediately switched to Yu Xiaogang.
There, mirroring Bibi Dong and Gu Xingzhou's tender mother-and-son scene, a tender father-and-son scene was unfolding.
Yu Xiaogang held Tang San in his arms.
But Tang San's body grew colder and colder. Gradually, even his breathing stopped. Yu Xiaogang tried Artificial Respiration on him countless times, to no avail.
"No!! My San!!!"
Yu Xiaogang was beside himself with grief and rage! He threw back his head and howled at the heavens!
Refusing to give up while Tang San still had a faint trace of life, he tried Artificial Respiration again. But with that breath, Tang San's body began to dissolve...
It turned into tiny specks of azure light that flowed into Yu Xiaogang's body.
One Soul Ring after another lit up, and his Martial Soul manifested. But alongside Luo Sanpao, there was now a Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo!
Twin Martial Souls?!
Yu Xiaogang stared at the changes in himself in shock.
"What happened? I absorbed Little San, and he became my Martial Soul and Soul Ring?"
"I have Twin Martial Souls now?!"
Before Yu Xiaogang's grief had even faded, delight rushed onto his face.
And that wasn't all.
He had been stuck at Level 29 for years, yet at this moment, he broke through to Level 30!
His Soul Power Level kept soaring!
It was as though he had absorbed all of Tang San's Soul Power!
[???]
[666, what kind of twist is this?]
[Gangzi's got it in him again? Or did he kill his disciple to attain the Dao?]
[This episode is divine.]
[He used Artificial Respiration to suck Tang San into a Soul Ring.]
[A path no one ever imagined!]
[Can that really happen?]
[How could it? I suck on my wife every day, so why hasn't she turned into a Soul Ring?]
[Maybe your technique isn't as good as Gangzi's? Or you're not as shameless as Big Shameless Gang?]
[666, jokes aside, Tang San's got it rough...]
[They're all roommates, but compared to Gu Xingzhou, his treatment is as far apart as heaven and earth!]
[Elite Livestream Room]
[Yu Xiaogang: @Tang San, don't overthink it. Something like that is impossible. A person can't turn into a Soul Ring!]
[Yu Xiaogang: And as your master, I would never do such a thing!]
[Yu Xiaogang: Besides, this livestream room is making everything up. You'll definitely be fine.]
[Tang San: I understand, teacher... I'm not taking it to heart. Really...]
Inside the scene on the scroll.
The perspective had shifted back to Bibi Dong. They were still at the arena. Bibi Dong rose with Gu Xingzhou in her arms, preparing to take him back to recover, when she heard footsteps behind her.
Bibi Dong turned, a flicker of surprise in her eyes.
"Yu Xiaogang, you still dare come here?"
"Bibi Dong, Tang San is dead. I no longer care who was right or wrong."
"Prepare to die!"
Yu Xiaogang's gaze was icy.
"With just you..."
Bibi Dong gave a cold laugh, but before she could finish, she was cut off!
A Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo instantly formed in Yu Xiaogang's hand, its tip seemingly coated in deadly poison. His Soul Rings lit up one by one, then exploded. The terrifying burst of Soul Power made even Bibi Dong feel afraid.
She had never considered a Level 29 weakling like Yu Xiaogang a threat and had let down her guard completely. By the time the Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo reached her in the surge of Soul Power from Ring Detonation, it was too late!
"Where did you get that Soul Power... pfft..."
As Bibi Dong spoke, the poison-coated Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo pierced straight through her chest.
Then everything went black...
The livestream room's viewers lost the picture along with her.
[Holy hell, "I no longer care who was right or wrong"!]
[Gangzi finally stood tall!]
[He actually one-shot the Pope!]
[That Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo is way too overpowered!]
[That was a straight-up scripted kill!]
[But when it comes down to it, Gangzi really does charge in. Even at Level 29, he was ready to destroy Spirit Hall at any cost!]
[Now that he has rings, he detonates them without hesitation, all to one-shot Bibi Dong!]
[True. For that alone, Tang San ought to give Gangzi a chance!]
[???]
[Give him what?]
[666, Tang San says: Wow, thanks a lot, everyone!]
Amid the livestream room's chatter, the ink painting scroll resumed the broadcast.
Though Bibi Dong lay unconscious with her eyes closed, the livestream room's power still let her see the scene on the scroll. At that moment, she was effectively another viewer.
She saw Gu Xingzhou holding her by the bed and gently laying her down. The Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo had pierced the clothing over her chest, and blood flowed so freely that none of her snow-white skin was visible.
At the sight, Bibi Dong tensed at once.
Surely this emergency rescue theater wasn't going to have Gu Xingzhou change her clothes, stop the bleeding, and apply medicine for her?!!!
The thought made Bibi Dong want to die of shame and outrage! This was being broadcast to the entire Douluo Continent!
[???]
[Holy crap, is it going to get this spicy?]
[Can they really broadcast this? They can't, right?]
[I'll pay to watch, seriously! Just give me one chance!!]
[Livestream room, I'm begging you!]
Yet,
What happened next took everyone by surprise again...
