Yu Xiaogang Over Three Years: A Shameless Beginning

From the very beginning, she had lured Yu Xiaogang into the fourth floor of the Spirit City Central Library, then had the Librarian guards arrest him and brutally torment him.

Although Bibi Dong found this method immensely satisfying.

Unfortunately, she could not use it so freely a second time.

After all, Yu Xiaogang was not stupid. If he were tortured like this twice in a row, he would surely sense that something was wrong.

To make Yu Xiaogang suffer as much as possible in the future, Bibi Dong did not want to reveal her true attitude toward him too quickly, at least for now.

However, although the method she had used to torment Yu Xiaogang the first time could not easily be used again.

That only applied when Bibi Dong was directly involved and might arouse Yu Xiaogang's suspicions.

But what if Bibi Dong was not involved at all, and some unpleasant event was even something Bibi Dong supposedly did not wish to see?

Although it was somewhat difficult for Bibi Dong to torment Yu Xiaogang directly without making him suspicious of her.

With Bibi Dong's intelligence, she quickly came up with a method that would never make Yu Xiaogang suspect her while still allowing him to be brutally tormented.

That was to use the power of other people—or rather, the other Soul Masters in Spirit City who admired her and wanted to pursue her—to viciously torment Yu Xiaogang!

Bibi Dong knew that.

In order to use her influence to gain the chance to read the Spirit Hall Hidden Books.

As long as there was hope of achieving his goal, Yu Xiaogang would never give up any opportunity to get close to her before he had achieved it.

Therefore, no matter how much torment he suffered from her pursuers, Yu Xiaogang would endure it in silence and never give up.

This immediately made Bibi Dong find things interesting.

And the subsequent results unfolded exactly as Bibi Dong had expected.

Bibi Dong deliberately grew close to Yu Xiaogang, frequently went out with him for leisure, discussed academics with him, and even affectionately called him Xiao Gang.

As news of this spread among the countless admirers and pursuers of Bibi Dong within Spirit Hall.

They learned that some piece of trash had become close to their beloved Her Ladyship, the Saintess, and that the two even seemed likely to become boyfriend and girlfriend.

This made countless admirers and pursuers of Bibi Dong burn with jealousy, driving them to frantically use every possible method.

These included, but were not limited to, direct and indirect threats, challenging him at his door, framing him, and sending people to beat him up, all in an attempt to make Yu Xiaogang leave Bibi Dong.

If it had been the former Bibi Dong, she would have already been completely won over by Yu Xiaogang's vast knowledge and sensitive nature over these three years, deeply fallen in love with him.

Thus, when Yu Xiaogang was persecuted by her admirers and pursuers, the former Bibi Dong would definitely have stepped in directly and forbidden them all from harming Yu Xiaogang.

But only the former Bibi Dong would have done that.

The current Bibi Dong had long seen through Yu Xiaogang, so she no longer viewed him through the lens of a first love.

The reason the former Bibi Dong had fallen in love with Yu Xiaogang in the first place was entirely because she had been inexperienced and immature.

Moreover, when Bibi Dong was young, she had possessed an innocent and kind persona. She disliked conflict, yet everyone around her was a Soul Master who loved fighting and violence. Only Yu Xiaogang, like her, enjoyed reading books, which was why he had managed to deceive her feelings.

Later, after suffering humiliation at Qian Xunji's hands, Bibi Dong had become blackened, and her love with Yu Xiaogang had become the sole pillar of her soul.

Thus, after many years of Bibi Dong's self-hypnosis.

This love had become Bibi Dong's entire world!

And because of the unfulfilled desire in her heart, Bibi Dong had regarded this first love as incomparably important, seeing it as the embodiment of everything beautiful.

Therefore, even after Bibi Dong had fully matured, she still treated Yu Xiaogang exactly as before, as though she had never noticed the problems in their past relationship.

But once Bibi Dong escaped this vicious cycle.

And experienced everything from back then all over again, Yu Xiaogang's hypocrisy and shamelessness were utterly exposed in the eyes of the now-mature Bibi Dong!

Therefore, regarding Yu Xiaogang's persecution at the hands of her admirers and pursuers.

Bibi Dong appeared furious on the surface, but she fully maintained the innocent and kind persona she had been presenting and never strictly stopped them.

She merely asked the admirers and pursuers she outwardly knew about not to hurt Yu Xiaogang, saying that they were only friends.

Unfortunately, in the eyes of many of Bibi Dong's admirers and pursuers, anything short of an absolute prohibition was the same as not stopping them at all!

Thus, their persecution of Yu Xiaogang only became more severe afterward.

On the surface, after Bibi Dong's request, they naturally stopped directly seeking trouble with Yu Xiaogang. But in secret, their persecution of him became even more excessive!

Using Spirit Hall rules to persecute Yu Xiaogang, just as Bibi Dong had done when she first framed him, was merely standard procedure.

They also slipped Yu Xiaogang laxatives to make him embarrass himself before Bibi Dong, found hideously ugly women—or even men—to accuse him before countless people of abandoning them after seduction, forcibly kissed Yu Xiaogang, kidnapped him at night and got him drunk, stripped him naked, then threw him onto the Streets of Spirit City. Their tricks were simply endless!

Unfortunately, although Yu Xiaogang was persecuted miserably in Spirit City and could be said to have been utterly disgraced, even the reputation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had become foul in Spirit City.

Bibi Dong's attitude toward Yu Xiaogang remained unchanged.

Because he felt that he still had a chance to realize his dream, Yu Xiaogang gritted his teeth and refused to leave Bibi Dong's side. He constantly sought opportunities to make her take him into places that housed Spirit Hall's secret books.

And once she felt the timing was about right, Bibi Dong began the second step of her own persecution of Yu Xiaogang.

As everyone knew, to read the Spirit Hall Hidden Books, one had to possess a sufficiently high status within Spirit Hall, and some even required the Pope's authorization.

Among all the places that held Spirit Hall Hidden Books, the fourth and fifth floors of the Spirit City Central Library were already considered relatively easy to access.

Bibi Dong was qualified to bring someone into the fourth and fifth floors of the Spirit City Central Library.

But she could not casually bring anyone into more secretive places.

Yet after reading the books on the fourth and fifth floors of the Spirit City Central Library.

Since he still had not found a way to evolve his Luo Sanpao Soul, Yu Xiaogang became desperate to enter other places that contained Spirit Hall's books.

But given the state of his relationship with Bibi Dong at the time.

Bibi Dong naturally could not possibly take the enormous risk of bringing Yu Xiaogang into more difficult-to-access places containing Spirit Hall Hidden Books.

Unless his relationship with Bibi Dong went a step further!

After a period of intense contemplation, Yu Xiaogang came up with a perfect plan based on Bibi Dong's personality, one that could greatly increase her favor toward him.

Just as in the original story, he would portray himself as a great Soul Theory Researcher who dedicated himself to benefiting the countless Low-level Soul Masters of the Douluo Continent who were just like him.

As long as he could successfully put forward several reasonably good theories, he would surely win over the innocent Bibi Dong, earn her admiration, and take their relationship a step further.

Then, he could even openly use researching Martial Soul Theory as an excuse to make Bibi Dong take him into other places within Spirit Hall that contained Secret Library books.

It was simply perfect!
