Yu Xiaogang's Crisis

After bidding Yu Xiaogang farewell, Bibi Dong took Su Mo by the hand and descended from the Fourth floor of the Spirit City Central Library, preparing to leave.

But after reaching the first floor,

Bibi Dong suddenly stopped. Turning around, she gently stroked Su Mo's head and said, "Xiao Mo, wait here for a moment. I need to leave for a while, but I'll be back soon."

"Okay, I'll wait here for you, Sister."

Although Su Mo found it somewhat strange that Bibi Dong had something to do, he merely nodded and did not ask any questions.

However, after parting from Su Mo and turning away, the gentle beauty vanished from Bibi Dong's face, replaced by icy indifference. A cold smile curled at the corner of her lips.

Yu Xiaogang! Yu Xiaogang!

I hadn't decided how to deal with you yet, but you delivered yourself right to my doorstep. Perfect. Today, I'll give you a proper "meeting gift"!

Thinking of her previous life, she had been deceived all along by that hypocrite Yu Xiaogang. She had believed that Yu Xiaogang—knowledgeable and talented, unwilling to fight fiercely, and uninterested in currying favor with her authority—was her true friend.

But the current situation clearly proved that Yu Xiaogang's unwillingness to fight fiercely was only because he was too useless to possess the strength to do what other Soul Masters did.

And his desire to get close to her had merely been to use her.

In her previous life, she had been too naive, completely controlled and toyed with in the palm of his hand, noticing nothing. But after being reborn, she saw through Yu Xiaogang's true purpose at a glance.

Since that was the case, Bibi Dong would play along!

Don't you want to use me to sneak a look at the Secret Library of our Spirit Hall?

Fine!

You can read the books, and I can take you inside. But whether you can get out safely afterward is none of my concern!

Bibi Dong sneered repeatedly in her heart.

After parting from Su Mo, Bibi Dong made a round through the first floor of the Spirit City Central Library and quickly found a Guard. She then told him

that someone from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan wanted to use her to sneak a look at Spirit Hall's Secret Library.

To find out what plot this member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had, she had not refused and had brought him to the Fourth floor. However, Spirit Hall's secret collections absolutely could not be copied by outsiders.

Therefore, she told the Guard to go to the Fourth floor at once and verify the identity and qualifications of everyone who had entered. He was to seize that person from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

However, they were not to kill him.

He was the youngest son of Yu Yuanzhen, the Clan Leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Killing him rashly might provoke a conflict between the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and Spirit Hall.

It would be enough to teach him a profound lesson.

After hearing Bibi Dong's words, the Guard was immediately shocked and repeatedly assured her that he would never let the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's scheme succeed.

After giving the Guard one final reminder not to reveal her involvement and alert the enemy, Bibi Dong left in satisfaction.

"Xiao Mo, let's go. Today, I'll take you around Spirit Hall properly."

After returning to Su Mo's side, Bibi Dong once again revealed a gentle, radiant smile. Taking Su Mo's hand, she strode out of the Spirit City Central Library.

Only Yu Xiaogang remained on the Fourth floor, gazing excitedly at the vast sea of books around him, completely unaware that danger was about to arrive.

After Bibi Dong took Su Mo away from the Spirit City Central Library,

the Guard whom Bibi Dong had informed that someone from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was attempting to peek at Spirit Hall's secret collections quickly found his superior and relayed her words.

Upon learning that someone from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had been so audacious, the Guard Captain was furious. He immediately gathered his subordinates and rushed toward the Fourth floor, intending to capture Yu Xiaogang and teach him a harsh lesson.

Meanwhile, on the Fourth floor of the Spirit City Central Library,

after watching Bibi Dong and Su Mo leave, Yu Xiaogang looked around in rapture at the bookshelves packed with books and eagerly began searching everywhere for collections that would be useful to him.

Because the Fourth floor was so large, Yu Xiaogang soon disappeared into its depths as he searched.

Not long afterward, the Guard Captain led a team of Guards up to the Fourth floor. His expression was grim as he waved his hand and shouted,

"Get in there! Everyone must have their identity checked! Anyone who entered the Fourth floor without meeting the required qualifications, arrest them immediately!"

Under the Guard Captain's orders, a group of Guards immediately passed the Fourth floor Guards and entered the library's Fourth floor, demanding to verify the identity of everyone they encountered.

Because Yu Xiaogang had already ventured deep into the Fourth floor while searching for books, he had not yet been discovered.

However, the Fourth floor of the library had originally been quiet. The sudden arrival of a group of Guards demanding identity checks from everyone soon caused enough commotion to alert Yu Xiaogang, who was absorbed in reading.

"Did they find something?"

Hearing faint sounds coming from around him, Yu Xiaogang could not help but feel puzzled.

But before Yu Xiaogang could investigate what had happened, a Guard in Silver Armor strode down the corridor and arrived between the two rows of bookshelves where Yu Xiaogang stood, spotting him at once.

"Hey! Stop right there! Who are you? Show me your Martial Soul Certificate!"

The Guard shouted the moment he saw Yu Xiaogang.

"My Martial Soul Certificate?!"

Upon hearing the Guard's words, Yu Xiaogang's expression changed instantly. Cold sweat broke out all over his body as he wailed inwardly.

Heavens! Why am I so unlucky? Of all times, I ran into the Spirit Hall Central Library Guards checking identities—and Bibi Dong happened to leave!

What am I supposed to do now?!

For a moment, Yu Xiaogang was as frantic as a rat on a hot pan.

But no matter how anxious he was, Yu Xiaogang knew he could not run. Otherwise, his fate would be even worse!

"Um... Sir Guard, I didn't bring my Martial Soul Certificate today. Could you make an exception?"

Because the identity on his Martial Soul Certificate did not meet the requirements for entering the Fourth floor of the Spirit City Central Library at all,

when he saw the Guard striding toward him, Yu Xiaogang felt bitter inside. He could only force a smile, fawning over the Guard as he took out a pouch of Gold Soul Coins in an attempt to bribe him.

But unfortunately, the Guard did not think much of Yu Xiaogang's bribe. He directly slapped Yu Xiaogang's hand away and said coldly,

"Kid, what are you doing? Trying to bribe me? I knew you were suspicious!"

"You said you didn't bring your Martial Soul Certificate, so how did you get in? Hand over your Martial Soul Certificate now, or I'll treat you as an outside spy and arrest you!"

"Big Brother, I... I was brought in by Her Ladyship, the Saintess! I'm really not an outside spy, please don't misunderstand!!"

Realizing that he seemed to have made things worse, Yu Xiaogang was terrified out of his wits and hurriedly tried to explain.

He did not want to be arrested and tortured!!
