Jun Yi's Sword Douluo
"The truth? I don't know much about that, but I do know some of their attitudes and opinions towards you. But are you really willing to listen? It might be a bit cruel for you," Bibi Dong said slowly.
"Please explain, Sister Dong'er." Jun Yi's eyes held a glimmer of hope. This was actually a knot in Jun Yi's heart that had troubled him for a long time.
" Ning Fengzhi has been shrewd and calculating since childhood, and I've always disliked him. But I stand by what I'm about to say; there's no falsehood in it. Do you remember when we first met a few years ago?" Bibi Dong said seriously.
"I remember being stunned by His Holiness the Pope's appearance back then, and couldn't help but take a few extra glances," Jun Yi joked, trying to lighten the heavy atmosphere.
Bibi Dong naturally understood the meaning behind Jun Yi's words, so she replied, "I noticed it at the time, but I thought you were just a child and didn't want to hold you responsible. Otherwise, anyone who dared to stare at me with such lecherous eyes would have been dragged out and beheaded long ago."
"There's nothing we can do; Sister Dong'er is just too beautiful. Any normal man would take a second look."
"That's true."
Gradually, the atmosphere lessened, and the two began to chat about their first impressions of each other, laughing and talking.
Jun Yi then continued to ask, "What happened after I left?"
"After you left, Ning Fengzhi said he wanted to make a deal with me. The deal was to reveal the truth about Rong'er's death. But do you know what she's offering in return?" Bibi Dong turned to Jun Yi and sighed.
"Isn't it a blueprint for Soul Tool?" Jun Yi, somewhat puzzled.
"No, his initial condition was you." Bibi Dong looked at Jun Yi's face, a hint of pity in her eyes.
"Me?" Jun Yi's face showed a hint of confusion.
"He wanted to use you to find out the truth about Rong'er's death. He told me that you were extraordinary, possessing the ability to create various Soul Tool, and that you were also a highly talented genius. He said that if I told him the secret, he would let you join the Spirit Hall."
"Then why did it later become a Soul Tool blueprint?" Jun Yi asked casually.
"I'm not stupid. You're Xue'er's adopted child, and your future relationship with our Spirit Hall won't be bad. You might even return to the Spirit Hall with Xue'er. So the stakes are completely unequal. Besides, even if we let you join the Spirit Hall, given your attitude towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Spirit Hall at the time, even if we got Soul Tool, it would be the worst one. So I refused him on the spot and chose to settle for second best. I got the blueprints for the Soul Tool from him, as well as the finished product, and demanded that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect never manufacture Soul Tool again." Bibi Dong slowly recounted the situation at the time.
"So, Uncle Ning just sees me as a pawn that can be placed anywhere, is that right?" Jun Yi's expression was frighteningly calm.
" Jun Yi, don't be too sad. Aren't you going to create your own power in the future? Then you can become the one in control and break free from the control of others."
Bibi Dong Jun Yi's condition was not right, Bibi Dong tried to comfort him, fearing that Jun Yi might have an emotional breakdown and do something crazy.
"I remember Sword Chen Xin was there too. Do you know his attitude towards me?"
"Regarding this, I actually know a little. My Spirit Hall has an inside agent in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. After years of investigation, their conclusion is that Sword Douluo has never liked you. In his eyes, you are just an orphan with some talent who was lucky enough to be adopted by Xue'er and grow up in the palace. Otherwise, you would never have been qualified to come into contact with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. You are not worthy of Ning Rongrong at all. He even wanted to expel you from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect several times because of your ambiguous attitude towards Ning Rongrong. Later, when news of your ambiguous relationship with Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing reached the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Sword Douluo was furious and had a big fight with Ning Fengzhi, saying he would kill you."
"At first, when I received this news, I thought Sword Chen Xin was just saying it casually and didn't take it to heart. It wasn't until later, when Sword Douluo returned after leaving the sect for a long time, only to find out he had lost his right arm and had a big fight with Ning Fengzhi, that I learned he had actually taken action and hunted you down for a long time. Although I don't know if Ning Fengzhi was involved in this, he definitely knew about the hunt for you."
At this point, Bibi Dong paused, then changed to a lighter tone and said to Jun Yi, "But you're perfectly fine, while Sword Chen Xin lost an arm. A dignified Sword Douluo, having his arm severed by a Soul Ancestor —it's truly laughable."
Jun Yi, however, was still deep in thought. He hadn't expected Sword Douluo to have this attitude towards him. He thought that Sword Douluo's previous dislike was just because he was arrogant and wanted to teach him as a strict teacher. But he never expected that Sword Douluo actually hated him.
This was hard for Jun Yi to accept for a moment. Bibi Dong Jun Yi fell silent, Jun Yi leaned closer to him with a smile on her face and said, " Xiao Yi'er, it's getting late. Sister Dong'er's shoulder is free; you can lean on it for a bit."
These words amused Jun Yi, because Bibi Dong's current posture was exactly how he had comforted her a few days ago, which made Jun Yi lose his composure.
"Thank you for your comfort, Sister Dong'er."
"No need to thank me. Knowing the truth will also benefit me. When I deal with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in the future, you won't interfere." Bibi Dong Jun Yi's mood had improved, Bibi Dong's expression returned to normal.
"Let's talk about something else," Bibi Dong suggested.
"What would you like to talk about Sister Dong'er?"
"I want to know about Xue'er, what she's been through all these years. As her brother, you should know quite a bit, right?"
Bibi Dong said to Jun Yi that although Douluo She Long would return to the Spirit Hall to report on Qian Renxue over the years, it was mostly business-like, and he only talked about the deeds of Qian Renxue. What she really wanted to know was what kind of person her daughter was. In Bibi Dong's opinion, Jun Yi was undoubtedly the one who knew her daughter best.
" Sister Xue'er, I have to say, her acting skills are really good. I remember when I was little..."
While Bibi Dong and Jun Yi were enjoying a romantic evening under the moon, the young Bibi Dong had just finished a battle against a low-level Soul Emperor. She looked somewhat disheveled, but thankfully, she had managed to kill him without serious injury. She collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, recovering her strength...
