Night fell.
Bibi Dong had found a deserted spot early.
Hum!
A powerful wave of spiritual force spread out, and everything around her fell still.
"Heh heh... waaah... hee hee..."
"Very good. You haven't disappointed me."
As the infant-like crying faded, Blood Pupil appeared before Bibi Dong amid black mist.
"Great Enshrined Blood Pupil, I am willing to accept the Rakshasa God's inheritance. Please begin."
Bibi Dong bowed respectfully.
She had already used the Fairy Brew. According to their agreement, she needed to undergo the Rakshasa God's Divine Trial.
"Granted!"
Blood Pupil nodded slightly, then tapped a delicate finger. A streak of black light shot into Bibi Dong's brow, and a Rakshasa Demon Scythe mark appeared.
"From this moment on, you are the Rakshasa God's inheritor."
As those words fell, an eerie glow emerged from the Rakshasa Demon Scythe mark. Vast quantities of incomparably pure Power of Darkness began pouring out, continuously cleansing Bibi Dong's body and tempering her Soul Power.
Boom!
In mere moments, Bibi Dong's Soul Power rose by one level, reaching level 83.
"Very good. You have successfully gained the recognition of the Rakshasa Divine Power."
Blood Pupil regarded Bibi Dong gravely, her tone growing more emphatic. "Now, on behalf of the Rakshasa God, I grant you your first Divine Trial task: kill a Douluo who possesses an Angel Martial Soul, and defeat a Titled Douluo who possesses an Angel Martial Soul."
Bibi Dong was startled, but understanding soon dawned.
She had overheard many of Xu Feng's thoughts, including the matter of the opposition between the Rakshasa God and the Angel God, so receiving such a killing task was hardly strange.
"You have only ten days. If you fail to complete it within the allotted time, you will permanently lose your qualification to inherit the Rakshasa God's legacy. You will also suffer the Rakshasa God's curse for the rest of your life, unable ever to break through to God Rank."
Blood Pupil added this warning, then her figure gradually turned insubstantial.
"Only ten days?" Bibi Dong felt pressed for time, and even much of the joy of her recent breakthrough dissipated.
"If I want to complete the Divine Trial task, it looks like I'll have to sound out my precious disciple for information." Bibi Dong murmured to herself, then headed back to her bedchamber.
Indeed, she had already forcibly moved little Xu Feng into her bedchamber, under the fine-sounding pretext that she was afraid he might fall or bump into something in his sleep.
In truth, she could no longer suppress the urge to "pet her disciple" as though he were a cat.
Huff... huff... huff...
At that moment, Xu Feng was sleeping comfortably on the big, soft bed in Bibi Dong's room.
Smack.
Xu Feng frowned, instinctively wiped away nonexistent drool from his face, then said, "Teacher, stop messing around. I haven't had enough sleep yet."
"Bao'er~"
"I have something to ask you. You must answer honestly, all right?"
Because Xu Feng had turned into an adorably innocent little child, even Bibi Dong's way of addressing him had become more intimate.
"All right, Teacher. Go ahead." Despite his words, Xu Feng did not even open his eyes and continued lying there at ease.
"Bao'er~"
Bibi Dong did not mind his lazy manner either. She went straight to the point and recounted everything about accepting the Rakshasa inheritance. Xu Feng showed no surprise whatsoever and continued lying there.
"Bao'er, how do you think I should complete the first trial task?"
"Dunno... sleepy..."
This time, Xu Feng was too lazy even to think, leaving no inner thoughts for her to overhear. Bibi Dong finally lost patience. The next instant, she forcibly pulled his eyes open to make him look at her.
"Bao'er, could you please seriously help me think of something?" Bibi Dong wore a rare aggrieved expression.
The first task of the Rakshasa God Trial allowed only ten days, yet she had not even chosen whom to kill and whom to defeat, nor did she have any plan. She felt lost and anxious.
Yet Bao'er would not even concern himself with her.
It was heartbreaking.
"Teacher, that's enough."
"Bao'er, then hurry up and help me think of something."
Looking at Bibi Dong's behavior, Xu Feng's face darkened.
Xu Feng could guarantee that if he had not turned into this adorably innocent little child, Bibi Dong would never have spoken to her in such a manner, much less worn an aggrieved expression.
"Let me think. Hmm..."
"Nothing."
Helpless, Xu Feng could only pretend to think seriously before refusing her with an utterly solemn expression.
Of course, he was pretending.
In reality, his mind was already brimming with complaints.
Ugh, I give up. Isn't completing the first Divine Trial task easy? Just kill that old schemer Qian Xunji and his younger cousin Qian Xunfeng. Neither of those two is a good person anyway, and they happen to be a Douluo and a Titled Douluo. Just kill them and be done with it.
His inner voice paused there. Growing anxious, Bibi Dong hurriedly probed, "Bao'er, if I chose His Holiness the Pope as the target I need to defeat, how could I beat him?"
"Teacher, please forgive your disciple's incompetence. I have no good plan."
Heh heh, you're getting anxious. Finally getting anxious, aren't you?
Actually, Teacher, all you need to do is go to the Rakshasa Ghost Domain and retrieve the divine artifact, the Rakshasa Demon Scythe. Defeating Qian Xunji would be a breeze.
But that's what you get for always taking liberties with me. Even if I know where the Rakshasa Demon Scythe is, I'm not telling you. Yep, just messing with you.
My Bao'er actually wants to hide things from me. What a little rascal. Just wait and see how I punish you. After hearing his thoughts, Bibi Dong's lips curved into a mischievous smile.
"Hee hee..." The more Bibi Dong looked at her precious disciple, the fonder she grew. Finally unable to resist, she scooped little Xu Feng up.
"Y-you... what are you planning now?" Xu Feng paled in alarm.
"Bao'er, you loved getting all squeaky clean when you were little. I'm taking you for a bath."
"What?!"
"No, absolutely not. I refuse."
"Hee hee... your refusal is overruled."
Damn it, this again. Every time, you use bathing as an excuse to take all sorts of liberties with me. You only ever strip off my clothes. Why don't you take yours off?
It's not fair!!
Hmph, you little rascal. You even want me to strip.
A blush crossed Bibi Dong's face, and she could not help inwardly chiding him. I'm your teacher. What propriety would there be in stripping naked in front of you?
Although Bao'er's thoughts embarrassed Bibi Dong, that did not stop her from taking liberties with him.
The moment they entered the bathroom, Bibi Dong stripped Bao'er's clothes off without another word, subjecting him to a thorough onslaught of pinches and smooches.
What troubled Bibi Dong was that, although teasing her adorable darling like this was clearly great fun, she still had to pretend that bathing Bao'er was hard work. Otherwise, he would resist. What if he tore her clothes off? She could get shy too.
After two hours of commotion, Bibi Dong brought little Xu Feng out of the bathroom and dressed him in fresh clothes. Once tidied up, he looked even more handsome and adorably innocent.
"Bao'er, stay here and be good. I'm going to take a bath."
"Mm..."
What's that supposed to mean? That's really easy to misunderstand!!
Bibi Dong was rather helpless too. She had not expected that bathing Bao'er would leave most of her own clothes wet. She could only take a bath and change her clothes as well.
Since the bathroom was right next door and only women were normally allowed into this area, it had no lock.
Thus, before entering the bathroom, Bibi Dong instinctively looked toward Xu Feng and warned him with a slight blush, "You little rascal, no peeking, or you'll see how I punish you."
Xu Feng: "..."
You think I'm you?
Always having designs on your disciple. A complete lecher.
Isn't lying here comfortable enough? I can't be bothered to peek at you.
Pfft!
Bibi Dong smiled. Bao'er had hit upon exactly what she was thinking, and her face soon reddened again. She hurried into the bathroom.
