Ye Liangchen, listening to the conversation between Bibi Dong and Shui Lanxin, felt a sense of foreboding. This big spider still wanted to take him as a disciple, probably because she knew his Spirit was a god-level Spirit through her rakshasa god's divine sense. It was too dangerous; if she lost control, he might very well become the second Qian Xunji.
"Xiao Chen, what is your second Spirit?"
Bibi Dong called out to Ye Liangchen, then saw Xiao Jiahuo had moved far away again. She smiled bitterly in her heart, blaming the rakshasa god's divine sense for stirring up her evil thoughts and scaring him away.
"Supreme Pontiff, my second Spirit is the Pure鈞 Sword."
Ye Liangchen knew that this woman had the rakshasa god's divine sense on her, and it wasn't surprising that she could sense his twin spirits, so he no longer concealed it.
"I told you, call me Aunt Dong, not Supreme Pontiff. Your parents and I are friends, so there's no need to be so formal."
Bibi Dong tried her best to show sincerity and get closer to Xiao Jiahuo.
"Alright! Aunt Dong."
Ye Liangchen was speechless. These older aunts were all setting their sights on him one by one. First, Ye Suling wanted to give him her daughter, Liu Erlong wanted to pull him into her academy, and then there was Tang Yuehua, who seemed to have taken a liking to his musical talent. But none of those were dangerous. Bibi Dong setting her sights on him, however, meant his Life was in danger at any moment.
So exhausting!
"Clang! Clang!"
As Ye Liangchen summoned it, a noble and unparalleled ancient divine sword appeared in his right hand.
"It's a Sword Soul?" Ling Yan was startled when she saw Ye Liangchen's Sword Soul.
"Ye Feng's Spirit is also a sword, and Liu Ruyan's Spirit is her own human form. Both are super geniuses with innate full spirit power. It seems Xiao Jiahuo inherited their Spirits, but a beneficial mutation occurred."
Bibi Dong quietly looked at Ye Liangchen's Sword Soul, recalling the monstrous talent of that immortal couple. If they hadn't died, they would have already been Titled Douluo. Thinking of this, Bibi Dong was filled with emotion.
"Supreme Pontiff, we thought so too back then," the Shui Lanxin Sisters echoed from the side.
"Ye Feng and Liu Ruyan's Spirits are very powerful, both with innate full spirit power. Their talent has been fully inherited by Xiao Chen, and it has even become stronger. He truly is a Xiao Jiahuo favored by the heavens!
"Xiao Chen, I want to take you as my disciple. Come back to Spirit Hall with me! I will establish you as the Saint Son, gather all the resources of Spirit Hall, and personally train you to become a Titled Douluo. At that time, you will be the next Supreme Pontiff."
"You have twin spirits, and so do I. Only by cultivating with me can you safely cultivate to Titled Douluo."
Bibi Dong directly offered her biggest bargaining chip, wanting to bring Xiao Jiahuo to her side.
Holy crap! Bibi Dong actually wanted to establish him as the Saint Son?
At this moment, Ye Liangchen really wanted to say that one line: Auntie! I don't want to work hard anymore.
However, he was someone who had risen above vulgar interests and could not yield. He also had a group of beautiful women around him, and it was impossible for him to abandon them and run off to Spirit Hall alone.
Moreover, if he went to Spirit Hall, it would also attract Qian Daoliu and his group, which would be a big problem.
"Aunt Dong, I cannot become your disciple. Otherwise, Na Jie will break my legs if she finds out. She might even come out and kill you. I cannot harm you."
"As for the twin spirits cultivation method, Na Jie has already told me. As long as you use Spirit Bone to enhance your physical quality and divine force to harmonize, cultivating to Titled Douluo is child's play."
Ye Liangchen's mind spun, and he directly used a subtle way to reject Bibi Dong, watching how the other party would respond.
"Xiao Chen, you actually knew the cultivation method for twin spirits? Why didn't you tell us?"
The Shui Lanxin Sisters reached out and rubbed Ye Liangchen's head. For all these years, they had been worrying about Xiao Jiahuo's twin spirits cultivation problem, but it turned out he already knew.
"Aunt Lan, Aunt Yue, I didn't think it was important, so I didn't tell you."
Ye Liangchen thought to himself, as a transmigrator, if he didn't know the twin spirits cultivation method, then what was the point of transmigrating!
When Bibi Dong heard Ye Liangchen say this, it was as if an explosion went off in her mind.
"Boom!"
Her head buzzed again. Bibi Dong hadn't expected that the twin spirits cultivation method she had obtained through near-death experiences, someone else already had.
"Xiao Chen, who is this Na Jie you speak of? What does she look like?" Bibi Dong asked curiously.
"She's very beautiful, much like my Life Goddess Spirit. She doesn't seem like a mortal. As for her true identity, she hasn't told me, and she said that when the time is right, I will naturally know."
Ye Liangchen found an excuse to prevaricate Bibi Dong, trying to make the power behind him seem as mysterious as possible.
"Hehehehe! Bibi Dong, stop bothering him. Xiao Jiahuo, being someone the Life Goddess has taken a liking to, has already had everything arranged. The Na Jie Xiao Jiahuo mentioned is probably the guardian arranged by the Life Goddess. Perhaps she is watching us from somewhere right now!"
"You should still try to pass the Rakshasa God Trial! Becoming a god is the most important thing for you."
At this moment, the rakshasa god's divine sense echoed in Bibi Dong's mind again, reminding her not to mess around anymore, otherwise, if she angered the Destruction God King, her main body would definitely be cut down.
"Hehe! You're right. It seems I have no more bargaining chips to win over Xiao Jiahuo. Why is it so difficult to make this Xiao Jiahuo work for me?"
Bibi Dong sighed in her heart, feeling exhausted. Such a monstrous talent, yet she couldn't obtain him.
Xiao Jiahuo was protected by experts of Shui Lanxin's caliber, so it was impossible for ordinary people to target him, let alone the Na Jie behind him.
Without a doubt, Xiao Jiahuo would grow up and stand at the peak of this World. He was Liu Ruyan's child, and he even called her 'Aunt,' so even if she couldn't have him, she couldn't bear to destroy him.
"Xiao Chen, if Aunt Dong needs your help in the future, will you help me?"
Bibi Dong thought for a moment. Although she couldn't win over Xiao Jiahuo, she could use her status as an elder to ask for his help!
"Aunt Dong, do you have any enemies?" Ye Liangchen asked, pretending to be curious.
"Yes, I have a very powerful enemy, and I can't defeat him right now."
Bibi Dong now wanted to completely control Spirit Hall and destroy the angel soul, but Qian Daoliu was simply too powerful, and she had no way. So she wanted to wait until Xiao Jiahuo became stronger to help her.
"Even you can't defeat him, so the opponent must be very powerful. I'm just a small Spirit Ancestor right now, even more helpless. Unless I become stronger, otherwise, with my small arms and legs, I'd just die if I went up against him."
Ye Liangchen knew Bibi Dong's goal was to get rid of Qian Daoliu and then completely control Spirit Hall.
"Not now. Auntie will wait for you to become stronger before you help." Bibi Dong was very happy to see Xiao Jiahuo agree.
"Aunt Dong, how old is your enemy? It will take at least twenty or thirty years for me to become a Titled Douluo. Will your enemy not be able to hold on by then? That way, you won't have to make a move, and he'll already be dead."
Ye Liangchen deliberately said this to stabilize Bibi Dong first. By the time he became a Titled Douluo, old man Qian Daoliu might have already sacrificed himself for Qian Renxue, so fighting or not fighting would be irrelevant.
"Pfft! Xiao Chen, you dare to say you'll become a Titled Douluo in twenty or thirty years? You have ambition."
"However, Auntie's enemy is a Limit Douluo who has lived for over 100 years and can live for many more years. I'm afraid he won't die of old age. Auntie tells you, after becoming a Titled Douluo, living for one or two hundred years is not a problem. Each level increase can add about a hundred years to your Life..."
Bibi Dong was amused by Ye Liangchen's 'dead' remark, so she patiently explained the lifespan of a Titled Douluo to him.
"Aunt Dong, so your enemy has lived for over 100 years? He's really an old immortal."
"Hehe! Xiao Chen is right, he is an old immortal."
"Aunt Dong, actually, you can also do this..."
"Ah! Xiao Chen, that works too?..."
"Although you can't kill him, you can certainly annoy him."
"That makes sense, I'll try it if I get the chance."
Ye Liangchen said some outlandish things that made Bibi Dong feel very happy, occasionally letting out laughter.
"In all these years, I've never seen the Supreme Pontiff laugh. Today, Xiao Chen actually made her laugh."
"Xiao Chen is really bold, to dare to talk to the Supreme Pontiff like that."
Flame Eagle Douluo, Shui Lanxin, and the others watched the old and young pair talking like old friends, which was simply incredible.
Watching Bibi Dong being amused by his outlandish topics, Ye Liangchen also understood why she was deceived by Yu Xiaogang back then. She was simply a naive and sweet person.
However, considering that this woman was still good to him, he would have to find a way to get rid of her rakshasa god's divine sense in the future and give her a good ending, otherwise, it would be too regrettable.
Hmm! There is a method worth trying. Perhaps the Rakshasa God will re-select the candidate for the Rakshasa God Trial.
Hehehehe! This method will definitely work, and there might even be unexpected gains then.
Bibi Dong chatted with Ye Liangchen for a while, then suddenly remembered that Xiao Jiahuo had said he hadn't undergone a Rakshasa God Trial, yet his spirit ring combination exceeded the theoretical limit, which made her very curious.
"Xiao Chen, you said you haven't undergone a Rakshasa God Trial, so why are you able to absorb spirit rings that exceed the theoretical age limit?"
"You know, the first spirit ring limit is only 423 years, and the second spirit ring is only about 700 years. But your first spirit ring is yellow with purple, already close to a thousand years."
Bibi Dong asked curiously, as if no limit theory applied to this Xiao Jiahuo at all.
"Aunt Dong! I've read a lot of books and I think that the Spirit Master limit theory only applies to ordinary geniuses, not to super geniuses."
"I accidentally discovered that the stronger the Spirit level, the more likely it is to absorb higher-aged spirit rings. Of course, you also need to strengthen your physical body. If it's a god-level Spirit, as long as you strengthen your physical body, even the first spirit ring can absorb a thousand years. I was just too hasty at the time and only absorbed a 999-year spirit ring. If I had trained for a while longer, absorbing a thousand-year spirit ring wouldn't have been a problem."
"Ordinary genius Spirit Masters, if they strengthen their physical bodies, can also absorb higher-level spirit rings, but they cannot cross too many years. I have a friend who took my advice and absorbed a 2000-year spirit ring for his third spirit ring. Of course, this requires ten or even a hundred times the effort, because there is no gain without pain."
Ye Liangchen presented his views, aimed at ordinary Spirit Masters, not daring to say too much, only that they must work hard to train their bodies.
"Hmm! What you said makes sense."
Bibi Dong pondered for a moment, then suddenly remembered her annoying daughter, who possessed the god-level angel soul but still followed the standard spirit ring combination. This meant it was a waste.
"Shui Lanxin, how does Xiao Chen know so much?" Bibi Dong turned her head and asked Shui Lanxin.
"Supreme Pontiff, Xiao Chen spent a few months learning all the knowledge taught at our academy. These are all things he figured out himself by reading a lot of books. I didn't teach him anything."
Shui Lanxin spread her hands, indicating that her little rascal had been smart since childhood and was a monster.
"Xiao Chen, Auntie tells you, there was once a person who was also a theoretical Grandmaster. He even proposed the Ten Core Competencies of Spirits."
"In time, you will also become a true theoretical Grandmaster."
Looking at the intelligent Ye Liangchen, Bibi Dong thought of a certain old acquaintance who liked to study theories, but unfortunately, that person's strength was lacking.
"Aunt Dong! The Ten Core Competencies of Spirits? What is that?"
Ye Liangchen heard Bibi Dong mention that plagiarizing Grandmaster, and it seemed she still harbored thoughts for that person, so he decided to undermine that Grandmaster.
"It was proposed by someone whose strength was only at Spirit Grandmaster level 29. People called him the Invincible Theoretical Grandmaster."
"Aunt Dong, has that person ever taught any powerful disciples?"
"I don't think I've heard of any."
"Only Spirit Master level 29, and hasn't taught any powerful disciples, yet dares to call himself the Invincible Theoretical Grandmaster. Aunt Dong, I feel like he's just spouting nonsense."
"Oh! Xiao Chen, why do you say that?"
"Aunt Dong, think about it. A Spirit Grandmaster at level 29, who hasn't taught any powerful disciples, his theories cannot be proven. Since they haven't been proven, and he constantly says his theories are invincible, then he's just bragging, showing off, and fooling people. The World is vast and full of wonders. No one dares to say they are invincible, because there are always people beyond people, and heavens beyond heavens."
Seeing Bibi Dong mention some Invincible Theoretical Grandmaster, Ye Liangchen directly undermined the other party, planting a seed of doubt in her mind.
At this moment, the Flame Eagle Douluo beside them was extremely shocked. She knew that the so-called Invincible Grandmaster was named Yu Xiaogang, a swindler who cheated people out of food and drink, and also the Supreme Pontiff's lover in her youth. Now, this Xiao Jiahuo had directly exposed his true colors in front of the Supreme Pontiff.
But this was also good. Perhaps hearing from a child that the person was a swindler would give the Supreme Pontiff a clear realization.
The Shui Lanxin Sisters had met Bibi Dong when they were young and knew that she had once liked someone named Yu Xiaogang. Back then, Liu Ruyan had warned Bibi Dong that the person might be a swindler.
Now, Xiao Jiahuo's words about Bibi Dong's first love made the sisters very nervous.
"Xiao Chen, why are you so sure that person is bragging?"
Bibi Dong now recalled what Liu Ruyan had said. Now, her son, based solely on the title of Invincible Theoretical Grandmaster, judged the person to be a swindler. They truly were mother and son! Their tone of voice was almost identical.
"Aunt Dong, then tell me what his Ten Core Competency Theories are? Let's analyze them."
"His Ten Core Competency Theories include..."
"Aunt Dong, hearing you say that, I can conclude that person is a swindler. Some of those basic Spirit Master theories, he must have directly copied from Spirit Hall, then added a tiny bit of his own, and claimed them as his own theories. Also, his idea that plant Spirits can absorb animal Spirit Beast spirit rings, isn't that common knowledge? Spirit Master predecessors have already proven it..."
When Ye Liangchen pointed out a bunch of contradictions in the Ten Core Competency Theories, Bibi Dong's mind exploded.
"Hehehe! So that's how it is!"
Bibi Dong smiled bitterly. Even a child could see so many problems, yet she had been advocating his theories. She truly was blind and had eyes but failed to see.
After Ye Liangchen's explanation, that person's image collapsed in Bibi Dong's heart. Recalling her own naivety back then, she felt extremely disgusted.
