"Pop!"
" Xiao Gang, you're amazing!"
After browsing through the Second Tier cultivation method of the Spirit Armor System uploaded by her beloved, Bibi Dong excitedly jumped up and once again clung to her lover like a koala, giving him a sweet kiss.
"I've told you so many times, I'm not Yu Xiaogang, and you're the Pope now, be more reserved, it won't look good if others see this."
Wang Hao reiterated that he is not like Yu Xiaogang.
He understood perfectly well that Bibi Dong would have been paying close attention to Yu Xiaogang's side for the past six months, and since he hadn't been able to control things himself for so long, some flaws were bound to be revealed.
At this point, lying is the worst possible tactic; only by directly revealing that he is not Yu Xiaogang can he extinguish Bibi Dong's suspicions.
"I know! I really don't understand how that tigress Liu Erlong managed to have you completely under her thumb. You don't even dare to acknowledge your identity to me."
Bibi Dong's beautiful, ruby-red eyes were filled with resentment. She really didn't know how to complain about her lover, but this commotion dispelled her doubts.
She had indeed developed doubts about the information her confidant had sent her over the past half-day, but now she realized that the coward was just pretending, afraid that Liu Erlong, that bitch, would find out something.
What a coward!
Back when I was with him, how come I never saw that your true nature was that of a coward?
"How about they learn from that female Tyrannosaurus Rex and show you some toughness?"
With a quick glance around her eyes, Bibi Dong looked at her lover with ill intent, pondering the feasibility of the matter.
"You want to be her replacement?"
Wang Hao, a seasoned cunning strategist, remained completely unfazed and calmly retorted.
These words made Bibi Dong's pretty face stiffen, and she immediately extinguished that thought.
She, Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, will not become a substitute for anyone else, especially not a substitute for that bitch Liu Erlong.
I am who I am, Bibi Dong!
"Where's the milk I told you to save up? Take it all out; we're going to have a good drink this time."
Taking the opportunity, Wang Hao changed the subject to the milk he had drunk earlier, which could directly replenish his Soul Power, and Soul Power was what he needed most right now.
Six months ago, when Ah Yin had her accident, he hurriedly instructed Bibi Dong to save up and seal the daily milk, just so that they could be taken away together today.
That's not milk!
She glared angrily at Wang Hao, Bibi Dong Storage Soul Tool, each containing her life savings from the past six months.
These teapots are specially made Soul Tool with a single function: preservation. Even after more than half a year, the contents sealed inside remain fresh.
If it's not milk, then what kind of milk is it?
While enjoying a cup of tea from a teapot, Wang Hao asked curiously.
This milk was indeed rare, and he couldn't tell which kind of Soul Beast it came from.
"Just drink yours, stop talking nonsense."
The embarrassment and annoyance on her pretty face intensified, Bibi Dong naturally dared not reveal the truth.
That was so embarrassing, she would never say it in her entire life.
"Baffling!"
Wang Hao glanced at the woman in front of him with a puzzled look. He realized he really couldn't figure out a woman's thoughts. Without thinking too much about it, he accelerated his drinking and refining of the pure Soul Power in the milk.
"Come on, make a wish and blow out the candles!"
After drinking all the milk sealed in the two hundred teapots in one go, Wang Hao used the raw materials that Bibi Dong had prepared in advance to make a huge birthday cake.
This was partly to fool the woman, but more importantly, to trigger a side quest and gain a large number of Fortune Points.
I hope you can be with me every day!
Bibi Dong solemnly expressed this wish, clearly stating that she wanted to be with her beloved every day from now on.
The past six months since her lover left have felt like an eternity for her; she has found that she can no longer live without him, not even for a second.
She knew she had hurt this man deeply back then, and even after so much time together, he still couldn't let go of the pain.
She didn't ask her lover to come in his real form; she only wished that he could use this Soul Tool to create a clone that could remotely reunite with her every night.
That satisfied her, at least temporarily!
"Okay, your wish will definitely come true!"
After glancing at the new side quest on the system task panel, Wang Hao readily agreed.
Fortunately, Bibi Dong only wanted his current Soul Tool clone to be with her every day, not Yu Xiaogang himself, which made things much easier.
That was just an accident last time, and he didn't leave many backup plans, which led to him being forced to develop in a low-key manner for more than half a year and losing contact with the outside world.
He has already made many arrangements, so even if he is once again plotted against and killed by the mastermind behind the scenes, he can still maintain contact with Bibi Dong.
The reunion was always short-lived. After spending the night with Bibi Dong, Wang Hao returned to the Swordleaf Grass and continued to develop his strength stealthily.
Meanwhile, Yu Xiaogang suffered a disaster.
"Second Uncle, what brings you here?"
Yu Xiaogang, who was about to get married to his current violent girlfriend, looked at his second uncle Yu Luomian as he walked in with surprise, and soon he was even more surprised and shocked.
"Father!"
His gaze only briefly swept over his second uncle, Yu Luomian, before Yu Xiaogang stared excitedly at the second figure approaching, his eyes becoming somewhat blurry.
That was his father, Yu Yuanzhen, the current sect leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, a super strong expert at the Titled Douluo level.
" Xiao Gang!"
Walking slowly forward, Yu Yuanzhen glanced at Liu Erlong, whose face had suddenly turned deathly pale, then looked at his son with a mixture of kindness and guilt.
"Father, it's so wonderful that you could come. Let me introduce you. This is Liu Erlong, my wife. Erlong, come here, this is my father."
An excited Yu Xiaogang immediately introduced his father and wife to each other, expressing his great pleasure that his father had come in person to participate in his Soul Power.
" Erlong? What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Looking at Liu Erlong, whose face was pale and whose body seemed unsteady, with confusion and tension, Yu Xiaogang couldn't understand why his wife, who had been perfectly fine just moments before, had changed so drastically in the blink of an eye.
"Snort!"
Yu Luomian snorted coldly, his gaze, sharp as a knife, sweeping over Yu Xiaogang.
He was furious this time. Although Liu Erlong was his illegitimate daughter, she was still his blood relative and Yu Xiaogang's cousin.
What kind of decorum is this for a marriage? If word gets out, how will Yu Luomian ever have the face to continue living in the Soul Master World!
In fact, if his elder brother Yu Yuanzhen hadn't given him stern instructions before coming, he would have already taken action.
"No need for introductions, Erlong, already know him."
Yu Yuanzhen felt even more guilty, because the reality that was about to be revealed would be a Mo Da blow to his son.
Although I really didn't want to reveal this Vice Admiral my son's big day, if I didn't reveal it soon, my son would definitely suffer even more if it came to light later.
The saying goes, "A short pain is worse than a long one," so it's better to say it sooner rather than later.
"Father!"
Even though Yu Xiaogang wasn't very emotionally intelligent, he vaguely sensed that something was wrong and had a very bad feeling.
" Erlong... she's your second uncle's daughter who was left outside the home, so you can't marry her!"
With immense difficulty, Yu Yuanzhen uttered this cruel truth, appearing as if he had aged ten years, his old eyes filled with guilt and pain.
He failed to protect his son back then, leaving him to wander outside, and now he's even personally disrupting his own son's wedding. He's such a terrible father!
As Yu Yuanzhen finished speaking, Liu Erlong, who was already swaying precariously, seemed to have lost all her strength and collapsed to the ground, her beautiful eyes becoming incredibly empty and desperate.
How could things have turned out this way?
"No, this isn't real! This isn't real!"
Yu Xiaogang also suffered a huge blow, and his mental state was on the verge of collapse.
"Ahem... Senior Yu, I'm sure you wouldn't want to see Xiao Gang and Erlong suffer like this for the rest of their lives. I have a way that satisfies both of them, allowing Xiao Gang to bypass ethical and moral constraints while still continuing their love."
Unable to bear seeing Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang suffer like this, Flender's mind raced, and suddenly a rather daring idea popped into his head.
"Speaking!"
Already feeling guilty, Yu Yuanzhen hurriedly gestured for Flender to speak.
Normally, a minor Soul Saint like Flender wouldn't be qualified to speak with him, but since this man is his son's sworn brother and has now indicated that he has a way to make up for this regret, he doesn't mind listening to his opinion.
If it really works, he will owe this person a huge favor.
In their despair, Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang grasped at a straw as if they were drowning, looking hopefully at their sworn brother, Flender.
" Xiao Gang and Erlong are cousins. Regardless of ethical norms or the sake of their offspring, they cannot be together."
Even if they cannot be together in that way, they can still maintain this love and engage in a purely spiritual relationship.
We won't publicize this. To outsiders, Xiao Gang just seems to have a slightly better relationship with Erlong, and no one can really say anything about it.
"Okay, it's settled then!"
Luomian, I've never asked you for anything before, but this time I'm begging you to grant me this request.
Yu Yuanzhen was also a decisive person. After listening to Flender's idea, he immediately agreed and sincerely looked at his younger brother Yu Luomian, and humbled himself to ask him for help.
This was the first time in Yu Yuanzhen's life that he had asked someone for a favor; he truly owed his son, Xiao Gang, far too much.
Of course, most importantly, Xiao Gang's theory is really powerful. Over this period of time, many of his theories have been proven to be true, and even Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, highly praises it.
Faced with such extraordinary talents, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would certainly not repeat the mistakes made by the Clear Sky Sect.
His purpose in coming here was twofold: first, to stop Xiao Gang and Erlong's wedding; and second, to bring Xiao Gang back to the sect and contribute to its development.
If we act in accordance with Flender's ideas, it will surely reduce Xiao Gang's resistance to the sect, which will be of Mo Da benefit to the entire sect.
Otherwise, if such a brilliant talent is lost, their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will inevitably become a laughingstock among all forces in the Douluo Continent, just like the Clear Sky Sect.
More importantly, their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would lose a great opportunity to rise and prosper. If that were to happen, even if he died, he would have no face to meet his ancestors.
Therefore, it is essential to safely bring Yu Xiaogang back to the sect so that he can contribute to its development.
