[Bibi Dong: Qian Xunji was a beast. Why couldn't I kill him!] [Qian Daoliu: Bibi Dong, shut your mouth. I won't allow you to say it.] [Tang Hao: Qian Daoliu, stop clowning around with me here.] [Bibi Dong, tell us already. What exactly happened back then, and why did Qian Daoliu falsely accuse me of killing Qian Xunji?] [Tang Xiao: Qian Daoliu, if you dare stop Bibi Dong from exposing the truth, the Clear Sky Sect won't let this go. Don't forget, my grandfather is still alive!] [You used Qian Xunji's death to suppress the Clear Sky Sect back then. We're not done with you over that!] [Bibi Dong: Qian Daoliu, are you afraid of losing face too? You failed to raise Qian Xunji properly, and now you're afraid of losing face? Where was that concern before!] [You won't let me speak? Then I'll insist on speaking!] [Qian Daoliu: Bibi Dong, couldn't you just die already!] [Bibi Dong: Come on, then, kill me. If you kill me, let's see what Qian Renxue thinks of you!] [Qian Daoliu: You... you... you!] [Qian Renxue: Grandpa, let Mom speak. I want to know what exactly happened back then too.] [Qian Daoliu: What a sin, what a sin! Qian Xunji, you unfilial son, look at what you've done!]
Spirit City, Worship Hall.
Qian Daoliu had no choice but to withdraw his consciousness from the Firmament Chat System. He knew he could not stop her.
He also knew that once Bibi Dong revealed the truth, Qian Xunji would certainly be condemned by a thousand accusing fingers, and even he would be implicated.
Heaven Dou City, Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.
Disguised as Xue Qinghe, Qian Renxue stared at the Firmament Chat Channel.
She, too, desperately wanted to know what exactly had happened back then, and why her mother treated her so coldly.
[Firmament Chat Channel] [Qian Renxue: Mom, go ahead. I want to know what exactly happened back then too.] [Bibi Dong: Qian Renxue, don't call me Mom, because you don't deserve to.] [Since you all want to know what exactly I went through back then, I'll tell you.] [When I was sixteen, I met the person I loved most in my life.] [You guessed right. That person was Yu Xiaogang.] [Xiao Gang is an extraordinarily outstanding person. You don't understand his excellence at all.] [You're used to judging a person's worth by their cultivation realm, deciding whether they're outstanding based on that.] [That disgusts me.] [What disgusts me even more is my teacher, Qian Xunji. He was an utter beast.] [To stop me from being with Xiao Gang, he actually dragged me into a secret chamber and raped me, forcing me to give birth to Qian Renxue.] [You be the judge. Didn't that beast Qian Xunji deserve to die!]
Tang Hao and Tang Xiao fell silent. This was, after all, Spirit Hall's internal affair, and it was not their place to judge. What they wanted to know more was what exactly had happened back then, and whose hands Qian Xunji had died at.
Yan, however, had a different opinion.
Although Qian Xunji's actions had indeed gone too far, hadn't Bibi Dong brought this upon herself?
He immediately commented in the Chat Channel.
[Yan: Bibi Dong, didn't you bring this upon yourself? Of all the people you could have fallen for, you just had to fall for a good-for-nothing, an outsider.] [Have you forgotten that you're Spirit Hall's Saintess? I imagine you've prettied up your actions back then quite a bit.] [I suspect you were even thinking of eloping back then!] [Otherwise, I find it hard to imagine why the previous Pope, Qian Xunji, would have been so furious that he did something so excessive to you!] [Bibi Dong: Yan, you damned traitor, what right do you have to criticize me!] [Yan: Bibi Dong, it's true that I left Spirit Hall, but I've already returned everything Spirit Hall gave me.] [We're square from now on.] [Besides, I was only a student of Spirit Hall. My status wasn't as exalted as yours.] [Can we even be compared!] [Bibi Dong: You're twisting logic!] [Tang Xiao: Yan, shut your mouth.] [Bibi Dong, hurry up and tell us. What exactly happened back then?] [Whose hands did Qian Xunji die at?]
Yan pursed his lips and stopped speaking in the Firmament Chat Channel.
Because he knew Tang Xiao and Tang Hao were anxious.
If he spoke now, Tang Hao might really send a palm strike his way.
Tang Hao followed suit and chimed in as well.
[Tang Hao: Bibi Dong, tell us already. Were you the one who killed Qian Xunji? Did Qian Daoliu pin it on me to seize the chance to suppress the Clear Sky Sect!] [Bibi Dong: Tang Hao, you guessed right. Qian Xunji was indeed killed by me. You should thank me, too. Without me, you would never have been able to avenge your wife.] [Qian Renxue: Now you know why I dislike and hate you so much!] [Every time I see you, you remind me of those unbearable days, and the pain of that humiliation.] [Well? After hearing that, do you want to avenge your father? If you want revenge, come kill me!]
Spirit Hall, Pope's Palace.
"Come kill me, all of you! Come kill me, all of you! Hahahaha!"
Bibi Dong went completely mad inside the Pope's Palace.
Heaven Dou City, Heaven Dou Imperial Family.
Qian Renxue stared at Bibi Dong's messages in the Chat Channel, stunned. She could not imagine that all of this was true.
The father she had always thought so well of had actually done something so vile to Bibi Dong, committing such a grave wrong.
Qian Renxue had never imagined that her father was actually such a person. He had been far too good at disguising himself.
But Qian Renxue still found it somewhat hard to believe.
[Firmament Chat Channel] [Qian Renxue: Grandpa, tell me none of this is true, right?]
Qian Daoliu drew a deep breath. He desperately wanted to tell Qian Renxue that it really was not true, but those were the facts. There was no longer any point in concealing them.
[Firmament Chat Channel] [Qian Daoliu: Xiao Xue, I also wish I could tell you that none of this is true, that it's all lies Bibi Dong made up, but those are the facts.] [Everything Bibi Dong said is true. Your father did indeed commit a grave wrong against her.] [Xiao Xue, do you want to kill Bibi Dong now to avenge your father? If you want her dead, I'll go kill her immediately.] [Qian Renxue: Grandpa, don't. Mom is a pitiful person too. Dad was in the wrong in the first place, so why keep making things difficult for Mom?]
Spirit Hall, Pope's Palace.
Bibi Dong was still laughing.
Only this time, her laughter was filled with utter exhilaration.
"Haha, I actually survived! Haha, I actually survived!"
"Qian Renxue, do you think that speaking up for me like this will make me forgive Qian Xunji and see you in a different light?"
"No, I never will!"
"I will only hate your Qian Family."
"I wish I could tear you all into ten thousand pieces!"
Heaven Dou City, Shrek Academy.
"Dong'er, so you never betrayed me. I was the one who misunderstood you all along!"
"How could Qian Xunji do something worse than a beast to you?"
"He was your teacher!"
"Dong'er, wait for me. I'm coming to find you right now. I want to apologize to you, to tell you I'm sorry." Yu Xiaogang's eyes filled with tears.
He had never imagined that Bibi Dong had gone through something so tragic, had suffered so much, yet he had actually misunderstood her.
He really deserved to die!
