Chapter 6 – Tea, Sunflower Seeds, and Front Row Drama
The group chat suddenly fell into silence.
Liu Erlong and the others were completely dumbfounded.
If what "I Am an Orphan" said was true… then as long as Bibi Dong found Su Yan, she could actually find them too!
Within this chat group, they had been badmouthing Bibi Dong from thousands of miles away without a care in the world. That was perfectly fine.
But if Bibi Dong really found them—if they had to face her in person—then they'd be in serious trouble.
None of them doubted Bibi Dong's strength, nor the influence of the Spirit Hall. If she truly wanted to find someone named Su Yan, she absolutely had the power to do it.
Even if the two great empires couldn't manage it… the Spirit Hall definitely could.
'What do we do now?'
'Is it too late to beg for mercy?'
[My Surname is Not Yu: Bibi Dong, you only know how to bully others! Even if I stood right in front of you, I'd still call you an old hag!]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Heh… What if I say this was all a misunderstanding, Your Holiness? Would you believe me?]
[Yan Zi is Not a Swallow: I admit it. I'm scared now.]
[Cat-in-the-Shadows: I admit I took sides.]
[Little Fox: Hah! Now you're scared? Too late! Once your real identities are exposed, let's see how arrogant you still are!]
[Carrot Lover: Old hag! Ugly woman! I'm hiding right now—no one, not even Su Yan, will ever find me!]
Su Yan, on the other hand, was completely stunned.
Wait… seriously?
The group had only just opened, and things were already escalating to real-life confrontations?
What a mess.
The Spirit Hall's influence covered the entire continent—even tiny places like Holy Soul Village weren't outside its reach. If Bibi Dong wanted to find him, she really could.
Sure, there were probably plenty of people named "Su Yan" in the world. But if the Spirit Hall launched an investigation, he'd be on their list sooner or later.
Time to drop some heavy words to scare her off.
[Su Yan: You're all overthinking it. I transcended the Three Realms long ago and exist beyond the Five Elements. In a small mortal world beneath the Douluo Realm, how could you possibly find me?]
[Su Yan: Bibi Dong, if you truly wish to meet me, then wait until I finish refining my Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon — The Immortal King's Burial Shroud. Once that's done, I'll visit your Douluo Continent.]
Everyone reading his message was momentarily dazed.
That… sounded kind of impressive?
Yeah, come to think of it—this chat group was clearly extraordinary. Su Yan probably wasn't some ordinary person either. Maybe Bibi Dong really couldn't find him so easily.
Spirit Hall — Pope's Hall
Bibi Dong frowned deeply, lost in thought.
With her experience and keen insight, she could tell that Su Yan was most likely putting on a mysterious act.
[Bibi Dong: Pretending to be mysterious!]
[Bibi Dong: I'll give you one chance. Bring your jade-mirror soul tool and swear allegiance to the Spirit Hall. Whatever you desire, the Spirit Hall can provide.]
Su Yan chuckled when he saw that.
Was she serious?
Could he, perhaps, request a private audience in her secret chamber?
[Su Yan: The Spirit Hall? How utterly laughable! I've gazed into the river of time itself—your Spirit Hall will soon establish the so-called Spirit Empire, only to be destroyed by the Star Luo Empire and Heaven Dou Empires not long after.]
[Su Yan: As for you, Bibi Dong—even after you inherit the Rakshasa God's power, and your daughter Qian Renxue becomes the Angel God, both of you will still die at the hands of Tang San, who holds twin god positions.]
Spirit Hall — Pope's Hall
Bibi Dong's face instantly changed color.
He knew!
He actually knew about her Rakshasa inheritance—about Qian Renxue—and even about the Angel God legacy?!
Who exactly was this Su Yan!?
Heaven Dou City
Qian Renxue's heart skipped a beat.
Su Yan… knew about her?
She had been undercover in the Heaven Dou Empire since childhood. Aside from a few Titled Douluo in the Spirit Hall, almost no one knew her true identity—let alone that she was Bibi Dong's daughter.
And the Angel God inheritance… that was a secret known only to a handful of people in the world.
Who on earth was this man?
Su Yan actually knew all that?
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Oh my god! Bibi Dong can actually become the Rakshasa God?!]
[Yan Zi is Not a Swallow: Wait, who's Qian Renxue? I've never heard of Bibi Dong having a daughter. Does anyone know?]
[I am an Orphan: Su Yan, how do you even know all this?]
[Little Fox: And who the heck is Twin God Tang San?]
A smug grin tugged at Su Yan's lips.
Perfect.
Just two more heavy blows and his "mysterious and all-powerful" persona would be completely solidified.
Even if Bibi Dong investigated him, she'd never believe he was the same Su Yan she was looking for.
[Su Yan: At the pinnacle of immortality, standing above all—where there is Su Yan, there is the Heavens!]
[Su Yan: I have gazed upon the river of time and witnessed the rise and fall of the Douluo world. I know the past and future of every soul who's ever walked this land.]
[Bibi Dong: Your boasting is getting rather excessive. Perhaps you know a few secrets, but I suggest you keep that mouth of yours shut.]
[Su Yan: Bibi Dong, are you… doubting me?]
[Bibi Dong: I'm warning you. There are things you shouldn't say.]
[Su Yan: Excellent! It's been ages since anyone dared question me. Everyone, would you like to know the legendary tale of Douluo Continent's greatest prodigy—the last Pope of the Spirit Hall, the first Empress of the Spirit Empire, Bibi Dong herself?]
[Su Yan: If you want to hear it, type "eating melon" three times to show your enthusiasm! I'll tell you the story of how Bibi Dong rose from a mere orphan to the Rakshasa God!]
[I am an Orphan: Eating melon.] ×3
[Little Fox: Eating melon.] ×3
[My Surname is Not Yu: I love melons—especially Bibi Dong flavored ones!] ×3
[Yan Zi is Not a Swallow: Eating melon.] ×3
[Cat-in-the-Shadows: Eating melon.] ×3
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Eating melon.] ×3
[Carrot Lover: I love melons—Bibi Dong's melons are my favorite!] ×3
Seeing the chat explode with messages, Su Yan couldn't help but laugh.
Perfect. He'd found the secret formula—drama sells!
All he needed to do was keep dropping juicy gossip, and the group's activity would skyrocket. Once the group leveled up, he could invite more members, earn more rewards, and grow even faster.
And if that crazy woman Bibi Dong tried anything funny again…
Heh, he'd just "lock her up" in her own secret chamber.
[Su Yan: @Group Member 9, say something.]
Everyone froze.
Right! There were ten people in the group, yet one had been silent all this time.
[Group Member 9: Gurgle~ Gurgle~ Gurgle~]
[Everyone: ???]
[Group Member 9: Eating melon.] ×3
Su Yan nodded in satisfaction. Everyone was finally active.
He stretched, got out of bed, and began to get dressed.
[Su Yan: The next part's a bit long, so everyone, go grab your tea and snacks. Half an hour from now, the real story begins.]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: You're actually pretty considerate!]
[My Surname is Not Yu: Good idea!]
[Yan Zi is Not a Swallow: Hold on—let me get my sunflower seeds and fruit ready.]
[Bibi Dong: Pretentious nonsense!]
At that moment, Ning Rongrong and the others were already bustling about, preparing snacks and tea.
Today, they were going to feast on the biggest gossip of their lives.
For the first time, they all felt joining this chat group was absolutely worth it.
It was fun.
It was lively.
And most importantly, it understood them perfectly.
