"What happened to Teacher?"
Suddenly, Bibi Dong burst in with Ye Tian and asked anxiously.
Qian Daoliu frowned slightly at the sight of Bibi Dong.
Clearly, he had not realized that this matter might have anything to do with her.
But he could guess that, anxious as Bibi Dong looked, she was probably delighted inside.
After all, Qian Xunji had been in the wrong back then, leaving Bibi Dong with an indelible wound.
Hearing Bibi Dong's question, the old physician known throughout the Douluo Continent as the Medical Sage wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied, "Your Highness, the Saintess, His Holiness's injuries are too severe. I'm afraid we lack the power to help."
"What? His injuries are too severe?"
"Then what good are any of you?"
"If you can't save Teacher, none of you will leave here alive!"
Bibi Dong was wild with joy at the news.
But she still had to look furious and make everyone give their all to save him.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo stared at Bibi Dong, bewildered by her rather excessive performance.
Wasn't she overdoing it a little?
[Sigh, Dong'er's acting is far too fake.]
[Everyone knows your relationship couldn't be worse. Suddenly showing so much concern today is just too contrived.]
[Still, this works too. At least Qian Daoliu gets to see the real Dong'er and let down his guard around her.]
[I wonder whether Dong'er is deliberately acting this way to ease Qian Daoliu's suspicions, or whether it's unintentional.]
Ye Tian was a little baffled too, unsure whether Bibi Dong was truly foolish or merely playing the fool.
Regardless, Qian Daoliu relaxed his guard after seeing her reaction.
If Bibi Dong had remained calm, that would have aroused suspicion.
"The Saintess is right. We must do everything we can to save him."
Qian Daoliu nodded, reinforcing Bibi Dong's words.
To heal Qian Xunji, Qian Daoliu summoned his Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul and drew on the faint trace of angel divine power within him.
Although angel divine power had no healing effect, it possessed extremely powerful purifying abilities, which could help his injuries somewhat.
Infusing him with angel divine power could also keep Qian Xunji's last breath from slipping away for the time being.
Under the combined efforts of Qian Daoliu, the Healing Soul Masters, and the Medical Sage, Qian Xunji's injuries were finally brought under control.
"Congratulations, Great Enshrined. His Holiness's injuries have stabilized. From here on, it all depends on His Holiness himself."
"As long as he makes it through tonight, his life will no longer be in danger. He will only need rest to recover gradually."
The Medical Sage wiped away his sweat and delivered the good news to Qian Daoliu.
Getting such severe injuries under control was nothing short of a miracle.
"Thank you for your efforts. Escort the Medical Sage somewhere to rest."
"All of you are to stay here and monitor Xun'er's injuries at all times."
"Report to me immediately if anything unexpected happens."
"Now treat Elder Ju and Ghost Elder. With them standing guard here, I can rest easy."
Qian Daoliu wiped away his sweat too, his face filled with relief.
Fortunately, Qian Xunji himself had held on. All he needed to do now was make it through the night.
For now, Qian Daoliu needed to oversee Spirit Hall personally and suppress news of Qian Xunji's injuries before it caused an uproar.
Bibi Dong found an excuse to leave with Ye Tian, planning to visit Qian Xunji again later.
"Little Tiantian, what do we do? At this rate, it looks like Qian Xunji won't die."
"Didn't you say he was certain to die?"
Bibi Dong held Ye Tian's little hand, her face full of anxiety.
"Big Sister Dong'er, don't worry."
"If I wanted him dead, I would have killed him back in the Star Dou Great Forest."
"I spared him for now so you could kill him yourself, devour his Martial Soul and soul, and activate the Rakshasa God Trial."
Ye Tian explained his plan to Bibi Dong, reassuring her.
"So that's why."
"But Little Tiantian, Qian Daoliu is being very cautious. He ordered everyone to stay inside and look after Qian Xunji."
"How am I supposed to make my move? I can't do it in front of everyone."
Bibi Dong understood somewhat, but she realized she had no opportunity to act.
"That is a bit troublesome."
"Let's see how things look at midnight. If there's no other way, I'll have to use that power once to create an opening for you."
Ye Tian narrowed his eyes slightly, a glint of resolve flashing through them.
No matter what, he would help Bibi Dong activate the Rakshasa God's inheritance.
"All right. Hopefully, those people will leave."
Bibi Dong sighed. All she could do was wait patiently.
Although she did not want Ye Tian to use that power again for her sake, she could only ask him to bear the burden if she wanted to kill Qian Xunji herself and activate the Rakshasa God's inheritance.
At worst, she would give herself to him once she ascended to the position of Pope.
Late that night, Ye Tian and Bibi Dong silently approached Qian Xunji's bedroom.
Ye Tian discovered that people crowded both inside and outside, leaving no opening to slip through.
He wondered how Bibi Dong in the original story had managed to devour Qian Xunji's soul and Martial Soul under these circumstances. It was simply too difficult.
"Big Sister Dong'er, I'll take you inside now. Just follow my instructions once we're in."
Ye Tian took a deep breath, gave Bibi Dong those instructions, and immediately used the Ancestral Qilin Card.
In an instant, a familiar, powerful force surged into Ye Tian's body.
As his own cultivation increased, so did the duration and abilities available to him when using the Ancestral Qilin Card.
To save time, Ye Tian immediately used the Ancestral Qilin's power to drag everyone nearby into an illusion.
Within the illusion, everyone remained motionless, and no one would barge in.
"Big Sister Dong'er, let's go. I've drawn everyone into an illusion, so you can go in without worry."
After telling Bibi Dong this, Ye Tian took her little hand and walked inside.
Everyone remained unresponsive, as though they could not see them.
Bibi Dong was stunned by the sight.
Ye Tian's abilities really were incredible.
"Little Tiantian, do I just devour his soul and Martial Soul?"
Bibi Dong stared at Qian Xunji, an icy glint flashing in her eyes.
"Yes, but before that, we should at least let him understand why he's dying."
"Qian Xunji, awaken!"
Ye Tian nodded and waved his hand, sending a mass of life force into Qian Xunji's body.
In an instant, Qian Xunji regained consciousness and slowly opened his eyes.
"Bibi Dong, Ye Tian, why are you here?"
Qian Xunji's heart jolted slightly at the sight of them.
He had a grudge against both Bibi Dong and Ye Tian, and he was gravely injured. If either of them so much as lifted a finger against him, he would surely die.
But when he saw the room full of people, he breathed a sigh of relief and adopted a domineering attitude.
"I don't want to see either of you right now. Get out of my sight!" Qian Xunji roared furiously.
"Heh heh heh. It seems you still haven't realized what situation you're in."
"Do you really think they can see you?"
"Now I'll show you everything that happened!"
Seeing that Qian Xunji was still so arrogant, Ye Tian shot a beam of multicolored light from his eyes into Qian Xunji's.
Images flashed through Qian Xunji's mind, showing everything that had happened from the moment he began planning to violate Bibi Dong in the secret chamber.
When Qian Xunji learned that Qian Renxue was not his and Bibi Dong's child, and that everything had been orchestrated by Ye Tian, he went completely berserk.
"Ye Tian, you bastard! Why did you do this to me?"
"Someone! Hurry, someone! Catch the murderers! Kill Ye Tian and Bibi Dong!"
Qian Xunji howled at the top of his lungs, hoping someone would hear his cries for help.
"Qian Xunji, stop shouting. No one can hear you."
"Right now, I am a god. It's your turn to atone."
"Dong'er, summon your Martial Soul. I'll help you devour his soul, his Martial Soul, and all his cultivation."
