Chapter 24 – A Family of Love and Hate
Liu Erlong was completely furious.
'Damn it.'
'Bibi Dong, you shameless slut—are you even human anymore?'
'What do you mean you "can't stand" me?'
'What do you mean I'm "not innocent"?'
'Old lady, I can't stand you either!'
The other group members also started to get worried.
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Bibi Dong, don't play like that!]
[Cat in the Shadows: Just having a guess, and you're ready to kill someone? If you do that, none of us will dare talk anymore, much less stay in the same group as you.]
[Yan Zi is Not a Swallow: Bibi Dong, you're going too far.]
[I Am an Orphan: Bibi Dong, are you going crazy again?]
[Group Member No. 9: Bibi Dong, if you've got the ability, come find me. If you can find me, I'll give you… actually, no, I'm not letting you kill me.]
[Hu Liena: Teacher, this will affect innocent people. How about investigating first?]
[Carrot Lover: Bibi Dong! You, bad woman! If you start killing innocents, we'll all collectively ignore you from now on!]
Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong was speechless with anger.
Absurd!
Didn't she just say it already? Even if she guessed wrong, the person wouldn't be innocent anyway!
Liu Erlong was her love rival—she'd hated her for many years! Killing her hardly counted as killing "innocents," right?
Besides…
Hadn't Su Yan already said it very clearly?
Bibi Dong is a certified madwoman!
As a crazy Pope, wanting to kill someone, it made perfect sense.
[Bibi Dong: Fine!]
[Bibi Dong: For your sake, I'll let her off for now. But Surname Liu, you'd better hide well. In a few days, I'll pin you to the wall.]
Bibi Dong was furious, yes, but she had no choice.
If she really went after Liu Erlong right now, the group would definitely isolate her.
She didn't know exactly what Su Yan wanted, but she was certain— If her behavior caused everyone to stop talking, Su Yan would absolutely kick her out.
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: We're all in the same chat group. We're one big loving family! Why must we always talk about killing?]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess has changed the group name to "A Loving Family."]
[I Am an Orphan: I think 'A Family of Love and Hate' is more accurate.]
[I Am an Orphan has changed the group name to "A Family of Love and Hate."]
[Everyone: ???]
[Yan Zi is Not a Swallow: Bibi Dong, don't be angry. She called you an old woman—but she herself is suspected of being Yu Xiaogang's mom! That makes her even older!]
[Group Member No. 9: Yan Zi is Not a Swallow, you silly! We already said she's not Yu Xiaogang's mom. Why can't you get over it?]
[Su Yan: Fate brought us all together. Fate! Heaven's greatest arrangement! Conflicts are unavoidable, but what is jianghu? The jianghu isn't about killing—it's about human relationships.]
[My Surname is Not Yu: Old woman, I'm going to go hide now. Guess if you want.]
[Hu Liena: My Surname is Not Yu, if you've got guts, send a picture! My teacher is not an old woman. I guarantee she's more beautiful than you.]
[Group Member No. 9: Really? I don't believe it!]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: I don't believe it either! Why don't both of you send pictures and let us vote fairly and openly?]
[Cat in the Shadows: I approve.]
[My Surname is Not Yu: I'm not sending a face pic! If I show my face, Bibi Dong will recognize me! But chest, waist, butt, legs—I can show those. Bibi Dong, dare you compete?]
[Yan Zi is Not a Swallow: slurp~ Now That I'd love to see.]
[Su Yan: You're not the only one.]
[Group Member No. 9: Sounds interesting to me.]
[Bibi Dong: Childish.]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: AHHHHHH!!!]
[Carrot Lover: Good sister, what happened?!]
Nuoding Academy.
Su Yan finished eating, then took the little monkey with him to find a quiet place to cultivate.
This chat group was pretty entertaining day after day.
But the problem was… Bibi Dong just wasn't pulling her weight!
Come on, compare yourself to her!
Chest, waist, hips, legs.
Who's afraid of who?
I'm not even scared of the chat getting flagged for being too explicit—what are you worrying about!?
Still…
Judging from the current situation, the chat group's progress was advancing rapidly. Even without him revealing any juicy scandalous secrets, the girls could happily "chat" among themselves for hours.
...
Time flew by; the days passed like flowing water.
Three days went by in a flash, and the chat remained as lively as ever.
Every day, Su Yan would casually talk with them for a bit, then find a quiet corner to quietly cultivate.
Night.
The stars glittered.
Su Yan lay on the back mountain, staring at the beautiful full moon hanging in the sky, feeling extremely moved.
[Su Yan: Before my bed, the bright moon shines. I suspect it is frost on the ground. I raise my head to gaze at the bright moon, then lower it to think of my hometown.]
[Seven Treasure Little Princess: Good poem, very good poem.]
[Group Member 9: Who is this 'Bright Moon' woman, and why isn't she wearing clothes?]
[Everyone: ???]
Seeing the messages, Su Yan couldn't help laughing helplessly.
Did a naturally gifted player sneak into the chat group?
[Su Yan: Ladies, the chat group is progressing very well. We're only about three percent away from leveling up. When yin and yang shift at midnight, a new day will begin.]
[Bibi Dong: And then?]
[I Am an Orphan: And then you can go wash up and sleep.]
[Su Yan: What I mean is—once the new day starts, we can continue increasing the Heat Value. If everyone chats a bit, our big family will level up.]
[Yan Zi Is Not a Swallow: So we're eating melons tonight?]
[Hu Liena: Huh? At this hour, I'm already half-asleep…]
[My Surname is Not Yu: Can we negotiate? Don't talk about Xiao Gang anymore—pick something else.]
[Everyone: No.]
Su Yan didn't even need to say anything—everyone instantly rejected Liu Erlong's request.
[Su Yan: If you want to eat melons, you can start tomorrow. There are plenty of melons about Yu Xiaogang. If we start tonight, none of you will be able to sleep.]
[Group Member 9: Then what are we waiting for? Forget melons—just sleep now and level up tomorrow.]
[Cat in the Shadows: You all probably forgot something. Su Yan said before that every time the group levels up, rewards will be distributed. And we can all participate—if we're lucky, we might even receive one.]
The moment this was said, everyone immediately sat up straight.
Obviously—
Even though no one knew what the reward would be yet, rewards were definitely more important than gossip.
[Bibi Dong: Rewards? I still can't imagine any reward capable of attracting me.]
[Su Yan: Ah, here she goes again?]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Can you stop already?]
[Carrot Lover: Evil woman, you're nothing but a stepping stone!]
Pope's Bedroom.
Bibi Dong, wearing a thin purple nightgown, sat at the head of her bed, her voluptuous figure outlined clearly. A disdainful expression rested on her face.
Reward?
Tch—
I, Bibi Dong, would rather starve to death, jump off this palace right here and now, than care about your stupid so-called reward…
She lifted her cup and took a sip of water, already planning that once the reward distribution began, she would fiercely counterattack Su Yan to reclaim her dignity as the Pope of the Spirit Hall.
