Revealing His Identity

Just as they were getting acquainted, Gui Mei appeared not far away. "Xiao Xiao, Her Holiness the Pope is looking for you."

It seemed these little ones had gotten along fairly well. The atmosphere was quite harmonious!

Xiao Xiao looked at Hu Liena and the other two, smiling faintly before replying, "Oh, got it. I'll be right there!"

Hu Liena stared at Xiao Xiao, inexplicably feeling a little empty inside as she watched him vanish from where he stood.

Xiao Xiao arrived at the Papal Palace and looked at Bibi Dong. "Teacher, what did you need me for?"

He had vaguely guessed what Bibi Dong intended to do.

Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes opened slightly as she said slowly, "Your first martial soul doesn't have a spirit ring yet, does it?"

Xiao Xiao nodded. "Teacher, you mean to..."

"That's right. I plan to have Gui Mei and Yue Guan take you to obtain a spirit ring!" Bibi Dong nodded faintly.

Xiao Xiao nodded, saying gratefully, "Thank you, Teacher! But..."

Bibi Dong's lovely brows furrowed slightly. "But what?"

Xiao Xiao hesitated, unsure whether he should say it.

Bibi Dong simply watched Xiao Xiao calmly.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Xiao said, "Teacher... have you ever carefully sensed my aura?"

Then he looked at Bibi Dong again.

He had never really concealed his soul beast aura, yet Bibi Dong had failed to notice it. That meant she had not sensed him carefully.

Hearing Xiao Xiao's words, Bibi Dong was slightly puzzled. She then closed her beautiful eyes and sensed him.

Before long, she opened her eyes with a complicated expression. "A soul beast..."

Xiao Xiao looked at Bibi Dong and nodded, then corrected her slightly. "Teacher, strictly speaking, I have a half-human, half-soul-beast bloodline."

He wanted to see whether Bibi Dong would have someone attack him after learning his identity.

How trustworthy was this teacher of his?

Bibi Dong stared at Xiao Xiao as though adjusting her emotions. After watching him for a long while, she finally sighed and said gently, "You are my, Bibi Dong's, disciple. If anyone makes a move against you, I will not make a move against you! Unless..."

You betray Spirit Hall!

No matter what, if you betray Spirit Hall, then you must die!

Only then did Xiao Xiao smile. "Teacher, I understand that. I would never have such thoughts!"

Bibi Dong nodded faintly. "I hope so! However, Xiao Xiao, since you are a soul beast, you should know how to condense spirit rings, right?"

Xiao Xiao scratched his head awkwardly and replied, "I'm seven years old in the Spirit Master world, but in the soul beast world, I've only cultivated for seven years as well. I still don't know how to condense spirit rings..."

Bibi Dong was somewhat speechless. "Then... were you chosen by a god? The spirit ring configuration of your second martial soul is somewhat against common sense."

Xiao Xiao shook his head, feeling somewhat disgusted by those gods. "No, but my spirit rings really are somewhat similar to God-Bestowed Spirit Rings."

Those bastards from the Upper Realm would love nothing more than to kill me!

If they could interfere with matters in the Lower Realm, would I still be alive today?

Bibi Dong saw Xiao Xiao's disgust toward the gods and did not continue the subject. "Then, Xiao Xiao, do you still have no choice but to hunt soul beasts to obtain spirit rings?"

Since he was a soul beast, it was unlikely that he would harm his own kind.

Bibi Dong had guessed completely right. Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly. "There's no need, Teacher. I just need to find any soul beast and ask how to condense spirit rings!"

I'm going to walk the Beast God Path!

Since Xiao Xiao had said so, Bibi Dong did not force the matter. "All right, then set off the day after tomorrow!"

Xiao Xiao nodded. "Mm, all right, Teacher."

With that, Bibi Dong watched Xiao Xiao leave the Papal Palace.
