The next moment, Jun Yi's rationality was shattered by a warm touch. He felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole body trembled.
Jun Yi was flustered by Bibi Dong's actions. He wanted to dodge, but for some reason, his body seemed to be frozen in place, unable to move. His heart was pounding, his thoughts were in chaos, and he was stunned as if struck by Inazuma.
Jun Yi's heart was in turmoil. He had never imagined that this majestic Pope would kiss him so passionately under such circumstances.
Bibi Dong's enthusiasm caught Jun Yi somewhat off guard.
Then Bibi Dong released him. She lowered her head, her breath still lingering on Jun Yi's lips, her eyes gleaming with an indescribable light.
Jun Yi looked at Bibi Dong with some confusion, his heart filled with doubt. He didn't know how to deal with this unexpected kiss, nor did he know what Bibi Dong was thinking.
However, Bibi Dong didn't give Jun Yi any more time to think. She lowered her head, holding Jun Yi in her arms, and whispered, "Little guy, I really, really like you."
Jun Yi was stunned, never expecting Bibi Dong to utter such earth-shattering words. He looked at Bibi Dong with some confusion, unsure if he had misheard.
Bibi Dong chuckled softly, and the next second her figure vanished, leaving only Jun Yi in the large room.
Jun Yi stood there alone, his heart churning like a stormy sea, unable to find peace. Bibi Dong's sudden kiss and confession had caught him off guard, leaving him somewhat bewildered.
He reached out and touched his lips, stroking the spot where Bibi Dong kissed him. The faint warmth on his lips was still there, but it was like a distant light, seemingly about to go out.
Jun Yi gradually calmed down and began to ponder Bibi Dong's actions. However, he simply couldn't understand why this powerful female Pope would fall for him. It didn't make sense; he hadn't actively provoked her at all.
Jun Yi recalled her passionate confession and kiss, all of which made Jun Yi feel somewhat unreal.
At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, because Sword Douluo took Ning Rongrong to hunt for Soul Ring, Bone Douluo guided Tang San's cultivation for the next few days. Although Bone Douluo was doing his best to guide Tang San, Tang San always felt that Bone Douluo seemed to be subtly rejecting him.
Tang San understood that it must be because of Jun Yi again. During his time at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the name he heard most often was Jun Yi's, which showed that Jun Yi was deeply loved by these disciples.
Tang San had also overheard many disciples calling him a "defective product" in private, as a way of mocking him.
Tang San kept these words in mind, taking them as motivation to strive for excellence. He worked hard to continuously improve his strength and proved to everyone that he was the true genius.

After lunch, just as Tang San was about to head to the forging room, Ning Fengzhi called him back.
" Xiao San, let's talk in the study," Ning Fengzhi said.
"Okay, Uncle Ning."
Ning Fengzhi smiled and invited Tang San into the study. He gently closed the door, like a kind uncle. He gestured for Tang San to sit on a mahogany chair, while he himself sat behind the desk. The air was filled with the scent of ink and paper, as if this were a quiet haven where one could forget the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
" Xiao San, how have you been doing at our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect this past month?" Ning Fengzhi asked gently.
"Very good, the atmosphere of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is wonderful. Here I can feel the profound heritage and atmosphere of a major sect," Tang San replied politely.
"Yes, I can see that you've been working very hard." Ning Fengzhi paused slightly before continuing, " Xiao San, you know that the Upper Three Sects are closely connected. Before the Clear Sky Sect closed its doors, it was quite common for the various sects to form alliances through marriage."
Tang San sensed something unusual in Ning Fengzhi's words, so he asked directly, " Uncle Ning, what do you mean?"
"What I want to say is that Rongrong is also of marriageable age, and she and you are also destined to be together. You two met at the Shrek Academy before. You are about the same age, and although you don't have any feelings for each other yet, I don't think that's a problem," Ning Fengzhi said slowly.
Tang San was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath. He had guessed that Ning Fengzhi might bring up the topic of Ning Ning Rongrong, but he hadn't expected Ning Fengzhi to be so direct.
Tang San took a deep breath. He thought of Xiao Wu, who had died, and his heart ached as if it were being torn apart. He was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head. " Uncle Ning, I appreciate your kindness, but... I cannot accept it," Tang San said firmly.
Ning Fengzhi paused slightly, then coughed softly before continuing, " Xiao San, I know you have feelings for Xiao Wu, but she is, after all, a Soul Beast, and this relationship is unacceptable to the world. You should move on from this relationship as soon as possible and start a new life. A person cannot hang themselves on one tree."
"I allow you to think of Xiao Wu. Just like me, I love Rongrong's mother very much. Before marrying her, I already had several concubines."
" Rongrong is a good girl, and she needs someone to take care of her."
Tang San nodded silently, but remained silent.
Ning Fengzhi noticed Tang San's hesitation, so he continued, " Xiao San, I know this might be a bit sudden for you, but I think it's a great opportunity. You can spend more time with Rongrong, cultivate your relationship, and maybe something unexpected will happen between you two."
Tang San took a deep breath. He looked at Ning Fengzhi, a feeling he couldn't quite describe welling up inside him. He had a deceased lover, Xiao Wu, in his heart, but Ning Fengzhi's words weren't without reason.
" Uncle Ning, I will think about what you say carefully," Tang San said slowly.
Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly; he knew he was halfway to success. He coughed lightly and continued, "Okay, Xiao San, I believe you will make the right decision."
