A reward!
Bai Guyue really had no interest in rewards. As for a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, Spirit Hall didn't have one either.
"I want a div-"
Before he could finish, Bibi Dong reacted swiftly and covered Bai Guyue's mouth, stopping her from saying what came next.
Those three words alone told Bibi Dong what Bai Guyue wanted to say. He could forget about leaving the Pope's Palace. Why would she let a fat sheep escape once it was in her mouth?
"Great Enshrined, remember to attend our wedding. We'll take our leave now."
The matter had been settled once and for all, so there was no need to waste any more time here. I think Qian Daoliu has designs on Bai Guyue too. We'd better leave quickly.
Yue Guan and Gui Mei followed them out, one after the other.
"They're really getting married. How am I supposed to explain this to Xue'er?"
Qian Daoliu's head was splitting.
"Big brother, since Xue'er already hates Bibi Dong, we can only let things stay as they are. Besides, Xue'er isn't at Spirit Hall, so some trouble can be avoided."
Golden Crocodile Douluo didn't think it was a problem. Time would smooth everything over. At worst, Qian Renxue would be sad for a while after hearing the news, but she would be fine once enough time had passed.
"That's true, but given Bibi Dong's personality, she'll definitely send invitations to all the major powers. Do you think the princes of the Heaven Dou Empire won't come?"
Qian Daoliu's reminder left Golden Crocodile Douluo dumbfounded. He had almost forgotten that Qian Renxue had only recently assumed Xue Qinghe's identity.
It was practically impossible for her not to attend the wedding. Besides, Xue Ye would definitely send someone, and possibly more than one prince.
Given Qian Renxue's personality, such a heavy blow would surely make her come to find out what was going on.
We're doomed. This time we're really doomed.
"Then, big brother, we can only wait and see how things unfold."
Golden Crocodile Douluo truly had no other ideas.
"When the time comes, I'll find a way. You and Third Brother should go break through as soon as possible."
Golden Crocodile Douluo and Azure Luan Douluo nodded and set off for the secluded cultivation chambers.
The remaining Enshrined also had something to say.
Qian Daoliu needed only one glance to know what the others were thinking.
"I know you want Immortal Herbs to break through too, but the Immortal Herbs belong to Bai Guyue. Whether he gives them away isn't up to me. He gave them to Second and Third Brother this time to shut their mouths. As for the rest of you... to put it bluntly, neither he nor Bibi Dong even considered you."
The truth hurt, but the Enshrined were all old fellows, so they could naturally accept it.
Light Feather Douluo sighed. "And to think I even drank with Bai Guyue before. I never expected he wouldn't give me a single Immortal Herb."
Light Feather Douluo also wanted an Immortal Herb to break through. He didn't want to remain stuck at rank ninety-six, unable to advance.
"Fifth Brother, weren't you just dragging him along to drink with you?" Qian Daoliu hit the nail on the head. "I was too embarrassed to point it out."
At his age, he still acted like a child.
Among the Seven Great Enshrined, Fifth Worship was the most unusual.
"Ahaha, I have something to do, so I'll be off first."
Light Feather Douluo greased the soles of his feet and slipped away.
"That Fifth Brother."
Qian Daoliu shook his head and smiled.
Meanwhile, after leaving the Worship Hall, Bai Guyue and the other three reached the vicinity of the Pope's Palace. Only then did Bibi Dong uncover his mouth.
"Ahem, cough, cough. Bibi Dong, thanks a fucking lot. You nearly suffocated me."
Bai Guyue coughed drily a few times.
He couldn't stand it. Having his mouth covered the whole way had been unbearably uncomfortable.
Bibi Dong simply wasn't normal. Who stuck their fingers into someone's mouth while covering it?
It was too perverted. There was seriously something wrong with Bibi Dong's mind.
"You're welcome. It's what I should do."
Bibi Dong smiled shamelessly.
Then she gave Yue Guan and Gui Mei a look.
The two understood at once and immediately left.
They knew Bibi Dong was about to make a big move, and if they stayed, they would only get in the way.
Brother Bai, take your time and enjoy yourself.
"I'm leaving too. I'm going to rest."
Bai Guyue had to rest, and he still had his own God Trial to deal with. He couldn't afford to hold up his progress.
"Don't be in such a hurry to leave."
Bibi Dong reached out and grabbed Bai Guyue's wrist.
She stopped Bai Guyue from going any farther.
"Bibi Dong, what are you trying to do?"
Bai Guyue frowned, deeply dissatisfied. Everything was already taken care of, so what else did she want?
"What am I trying to do?"
Bibi Dong chuckled softly.
"You made me humble myself and beg you in the Worship Hall, making me lose all face. Now I want to exact a little price. That's not too much, is it?"
She didn't dislike Bai Guyue. On the contrary, she thoroughly enjoyed his various antics, and as long as Bai Guyue liked something, she would do her best to satisfy him. But what happened in the Worship Hall was an exception; she had to punish him properly for that.
"Are you crazy? Hurry up and complete your own God Trial. Stop making a spectacle of yourself here."
Bai Guyue had just tried to wrench his arm free when he found he couldn't pull it out at all. Instead, Bibi Dong forcibly pulled him into her arms, brought him straight to a corner, and leaned in to kiss him.
"Mmph..."
Bai Guyue was deeply annoyed. This time, he had to teach Bibi Dong some manners.
Bai Guyue abruptly turned around and pinned Bibi Dong against the wall in the corner, turning the tables on her.
Bibi Dong was startled at first, but then her lips curled up, a hint of triumphant amusement in her eyes. She raised a hand and hooked it around Bai Guyue's neck, her voice low and husky.
"Come on, let me see how capable you are."
Bai Guyue said nothing and lowered his head to kiss her.
The kiss was deep and forceful, with an unmistakable note of revenge.
He pinned Bibi Dong's wrist against the wall with one hand and wrapped the other around her waist, pressing her whole body into the corner and leaving her no room to dodge.
Bibi Dong offered no resistance. Instead, she tilted her head up to respond, her breathing gradually growing ragged as their lips and tongues entwined.
Her fingers slipped into Bai Guyue's hair and tugged gently, as if urging him on, yet also as if challenging him.
After a while, Bai Guyue's mouth had gone dry, his throat had tightened, and his breathing had become ragged. He pulled back slightly, wanting to catch his breath.
But Bibi Dong wasn't satisfied at all. Her gaze was hazy and her lips were flushed red. As if she'd had a taste of sweetness, she refused to stop. She stared at Bai Guyue, chuckled softly, then leaned in again and took the initiative to kiss him.
This time she took the lead, kissing him even more fiercely than before. Her tongue pushed past his lips, greedily taking more, like a bottomless pit that could never be filled.
Bai Guyue frowned deeply and tried to pull away, but she gripped the back of his neck, leaving him unable to move.
"Mmph..."
He let out a muffled grunt of annoyance, with only one thought in his mind!
This woman really is crazy.
After that dizzying spell, Bibi Dong left, thoroughly satisfied, though she was wet below.
Blushing, she held it in.
Continuing here would be very dangerous. Sooner or later, someone would notice.
As the Pope, she certainly couldn't afford to lose her dignity.
She had to admit, Bai Guyue was truly skilled at kissing. It was making her reluctant to leave.
"Don't kiss me again next time."
Bai Guyue wiped the wetness from the corner of his mouth and spoke with obvious disdain.
"Didn't you seem to like it, Xiao Bai?"
Bibi Dong teased him.
"If you hadn't kissed me without asking, I wouldn't have kissed you."
"Ahem, cough, cough."
Bai Guyue coughed drily twice, feeling utterly furious. His lips were numb, and his tongue was already tired.
