Spirit City.

When Chu Bai saw Bibi Dong again, she was sitting in the chair ahead of him. A pile of complicated documents lay on the desk before her, and she still held one in her hand, but she seemed to have already fallen asleep.

"With this many documents, I'd fall asleep within a minute. Is being the Pope of Spirit Hall really this exhausting?"

Chu Bai quietly stepped forward and began kneading Bibi Dong's shoulders.

But the instant Chu Bai touched her, Bibi Dong suddenly woke up. A surge of killing intent flashed through her eyes, but upon realizing it was Chu Bai, her gaze immediately softened.

"Xiao Bai, you're back."

Chu Bai nodded slightly. "Teacher, I gained quite a lot from this trip."

"Oh? Tell me, what did you gain?" Bibi Dong asked with a smile.

"I recruited Dugu Bo and reached a partnership with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Although they won't directly obey Spirit Hall, they can heed my suggestions. That means Spirit Hall has effectively gained three Titled Douluo-level combatants."

Dugu Bo was within Bibi Dong's expectations, since Chu Bai had already made that clear in his diary.

But as for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Bibi Dong had not expected Chu Bai to truly possess the ability to recruit them.

With the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, they would gain not merely two Titled Douluo, but countless Soul Masters who possessed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the number one support-type Martial Soul in the world!

"By the way, Tang Hao didn't cause you any trouble afterward, did he?"

When Bibi Dong mentioned Tang Hao, a trace of killing intent flashed through her eyes.

Originally, she had held no grudge against Tang Hao. She had even needed to thank him for severely injuring Qian Xunji and giving her the chance to make her move. But since Tang Hao now wanted to kill Chu Bai, she naturally regarded him as an enemy.

Others might fear Tang Hao, but she did not.

"Given Tang Hao's condition, he's probably somewhere nursing his wounds right now."

Chu Bai smiled indifferently. "Even if Tang Hao comes looking for trouble next time, I think I have enough strength to deal with him."

Bibi Dong fell into thought. But seeing Chu Bai's calm demeanor, she nodded. "Still, don't underestimate him. Tang Hao isn't easy to deal with, or he wouldn't have survived until now."

"We might not even need to make a move against Tang Hao ourselves."

A plan suddenly came to Chu Bai. "The Clear Sky Sect currently sees Tang Hao as a sinner. If we cause some trouble for the Clear Sky Sect at this time, they'll naturally blame Tang Hao."

"Then, without us doing anything, Tang Hao will become a stray dog."

Bibi Dong agreed. "That is indeed a good method. From what I can see, your strength is already close to Soul King level?"

Chu Bai felt somewhat embarrassed. Ever since he began writing the diary, his strength had been increasing faster and faster. Although most of the power of the Pangu Axe and Desolation had been sealed, they could still let him sweep aside every enemy he encountered.

"Almost. I returned to Spirit Hall this time to prepare for breaking through to Soul King."

After talking with Bibi Dong for a while, Chu Bai went back to rest. At that moment, Gui Mei and Yue Guan arrived as well. They told Bibi Dong how Chu Bai had shattered Qian Renxue's Martial Soul Avatar with a single move. Although Bibi Dong already knew, hearing it from Gui Mei and Yue Guan still left her feeling incredulous.

The Six-winged Angel could absolutely be called a God-tier Martial Soul, yet its Martial Soul Avatar had been broken so easily.

"I wonder what Xiao Bai's Second Martial Soul is. It actually allows him to fight across thirty ranks of Soul Power. Still, that should be a good thing for him. And his first Soul Ring was a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring... Could a Soul Beast have sacrificed itself for him?"

"But just talking about it isn't enough. I should start preparing to find Soul Rings for Xiao Bai."

At that thought, Bibi Dong could only smile bitterly.

Your first Soul Ring was already a hundred-thousand-year one. If the later ones are below that, wouldn't they be far too lacking?

But that made things difficult for her. Where was she supposed to find so many Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts?

After returning to his residence, Chu Bai began writing in his diary.

[You know what, Yu Xiaogang was even more entertaining than those circuses. I thought this guy would at least step forward to defend the Shrek lot, but he was the first one to make excuses for himself. If I weren't such a nice person, Dai Mubai would've lost his life already.]

[He really took double standards to the extreme. He even wanted to dredge up old scores with me. So what if you used to be with Bibi Dong? Even if Bibi Dong had been there, I still would've crippled one of your arms. One day, I really should let Bibi Dong see what kind of trash you, Yu Xiaogang, really are.]

[Tang San too. One day, I'll go pull up his mother and see how arrogant he can still be. It's just that this diary can't mock Ah Yin, or I'd definitely let her see the true faces of that father-and-son pair.]

[Yu Xiaogang took Tang San as a disciple only to prove that his shitty theories weren't wrong. But even without you, Tang San, the Son of Destiny, would still have grown strong. What the hell are you so proud of? Dai Mubai put it pretty well—a level-twenty-nine piece of trash calling himself Grandmaster.]

Bibi Dong, who had been about to rest, saw the diary's contents as well. She remained silent for a long time before letting out a soft sigh.

"Yu Xiaogang, you feel like a stranger to me now. Everyone in this world may condemn me, but you, Yu Xiaogang, are the one person who cannot."

"Xiao Bai and Nana are now both my proudest disciples. One day, Xiao Bai will take my place. Perhaps Spirit Hall will then rise to true glory, and even Qian Daoliu will be unable to stop it."

[Speaking of which, I should get Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue to have a proper talk. It would naturally be a good thing if this mother and daughter could reconcile, but I'm afraid that big-breasted, brainless woman Qian Renxue will fall for Tang San again. She actually has Tang San's information sitting on her desk?!]

Qian Renxue: "..."

At that moment, Qian Renxue was just short of flying from the Heaven Dou Empire to Spirit Hall and chopping Chu Bai apart.

"Does this guy have something against me? Why does he keep mocking me?" Qian Renxue gritted her teeth.

"I will never fall in love with Tang San in this lifetime!"

After reading the diary for so long, no matter how foolish she was, she knew what kind of person Tang San was. At the same time, she could not understand why Chu Bai was so convinced that she would fall in love with Tang San.

"Isn't Tang San just a hypocrite? Even if I fell for that pervert Chu Bai, I wouldn't fall for him."

The moment those words came out, Qian Renxue immediately felt that something was wrong. She hurriedly shook her head and pretended she had never said them.

[Shrek is basically finished. Only those four men are left, but judging by their nature, they'll definitely bring in a few girls. It doesn't matter who they find. Once I put together a brand-new Spirit Hall team, any one of them will be enough to crush your Shrek.]
