Chapter 142 Yu Xiaogang: I love you. Bibi Dong: You're talking nonsense!
Bibi Dong gritted her teeth, wishing she could rush into the Hall of Offerings and fight the seven chief priests.
"Teacher!"
At that moment, Hu Liena called out anxiously from the ground.
"Hmph!" Bibi Dong glanced at Hu Liena and said angrily, "Nana, you have disappointed me greatly! From now on, never see Dugu Lin again! Otherwise, just pretend you don't have me as your teacher!"
"Teacher..."
"Xie Yue, take your sister away! She's not allowed to leave the house until the Soul Master Competition begins!"
The matter seemed to have come to an end. In the distance, Yue Guan and Gui Mei were trembling. They looked at each other and knew what the other was thinking.
Yue Guan sighed, "Sigh~ I guess there won't be any good days ahead."
Gui Mei sighed and shook his head: "Ah yes I truly admire Dugu Lin, how dare he speak to the Pope like that! He's practically courting death!"
After pondering for a moment, Yue Guan guessed, "Perhaps he is confident that the Hall of Offerings will protect him. Besides, he is quite strong himself! And he also has a grandfather, Dugu Bo."
"Report!"
Just then, a guard came to report.
"What is it?"
The guard said, "There is a man named Yu Xiaogang who is holding an elder's token and wants to see His Holiness the Pope!"
"Yu Xiaogang!"
Yue Guan and Gui Mei's hearts skipped a beat, and they swallowed hard in fear.
Just moments ago, their Pope was going berserk and wanting to kill people because of Yu Xiaogang. And then, a second later, Yu Xiaogang showed up at their door.
"Quickly! Bring the person here first, I'll go report to His Holiness the Pope!"
Sensing the tension between Yue Douluo and Gui Mei, the guards immediately ran back to respectfully welcome Yu Xiaogang in.
Along the way, Yu Xiaogang felt respected and was in a good mood.
Upon entering the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong said, "You've arrived."
"Yes, I've come... Dong'er."
Yu Xiaogang arrived at the Papal Palace and saw Bibi Dong on the Papal Throne. Bibi Dong was still as beautiful as ever, and his heart stirred. He couldn't help but call out.
Bibi Dong thought of what Dugu Lin had just told her, took a deep breath, suppressed her fluctuating emotions, and asked, "What brings you here? It's been twenty years since we last met!"
Yu Xiaogang began, "It's been so many years. I just wanted to see you. How have you been all these years?"
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong was secretly delighted, thinking, 'Who said he hadn't cared about me? Asking how I was doing the very first time we met—what else could it be but concern?'
"Hmph~" Bibi Dong snorted arrogantly.
When Yu Xiaogang saw that Bibi Dong actually snorted at him, he also questioned her without any politeness: "Bibi Dong, did you send people to intercept and kill Tang San?"
Bibi Dong was taken aback, suddenly feeling somewhat bewildered. Why did Yu Xiaogang's attitude change so quickly? Was his concern just a pretense?
"That's right! It's me, what are you going to do about it? Also, call me Your Holiness the Pope!"
Yu Xiaogang's pupils contracted slightly as he felt a slight pressure. He said in a deep voice, "I really misjudged you!"
Bibi Dong frowned slightly, and the temperature inside the hall seemed to drop a few degrees.
After a moment, Bibi Dong asked calmly, "You came to see me just for this? Then I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you!"
Yu Xiaogang clenched his fists and said angrily, "You probably didn't expect this, did you? I've already broken through the limitations of my Martial Soul! I now have level 35 Soul Power! In the future, I will definitely become a powerful figure!"
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong remained expressionless and retorted, "You came here just to tell me that you've finally achieved your wish? That you have the opportunity to prove your mastery to the world?"
"Hmph~" Yu Xiaogang sneered triumphantly and continued, "Tell me the secret of how twin martial souls overcome difficulties, and I can forgive you for intercepting Tang San!"
Bibi Dong stared at Yu Xiaogang, seemingly frozen in place, as if a pause button had been pressed.
"So, your real purpose is to obtain the secret of cultivating twin martial souls?"
"That's right! Bibi Dong, Tang San is my disciple! He's now in danger of cultivating twin martial souls! I need your help!"
"Yu Xiaogang, do you know he is Tang Hao's son, a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect! He's the very person I just sent to intercept and kill! He's someone who has a blood feud with my Spirit Hall for killing my mother! You want me to tell you the secret of cultivating twin spirits? And then have you raise a powerful person to oppose me?"
Yu Xiaogang was speechless after being rebuked, but he continued, "I promise you, as long as you tell me the secret of cultivating twin martial souls, I will make sure that Tang San will never be an enemy of the Spirit Hall for the rest of his life!"
Bibi Dong was stunned again! She was no longer the little girl she used to be, and she wouldn't believe Yu Xiaogang's guarantee unconditionally.
Would Tang San refrain from becoming an enemy of the Spirit Hall because of Yu Xiaogang?
Even someone as love-struck as Bibi Dong wouldn't believe that! Bibi Dong didn't understand why Yu Xiaogang would say such a thing.
"A person like Tang San will only be eliminated by the Spirit Hall! We will never allow him to grow stronger!"
"Bibi Dong, do you really want to be my enemy?" Yu Xiaogang was seething with suppressed anger, his eyes instantly becoming bloodshot! Why did everyone dislike him? He had clearly broken through the limitations of his Martial Soul!
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's somewhat ferocious expression, Bibi Dong felt a pang of pain in her heart and couldn't help but ask, "Tang San, is he really that important to you?"
Yu Xiaogang glared at Bibi Dong and roared, "Bibi Dong, listen to me clearly! I have no children of my own, and he is like my son! If you dare to lay a hand on him here, I will destroy the Spirit Hall at all costs."
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong paused for a long time, then her emotions suddenly became very calm. She calmly asked, "For Tang San, you are willing to... destroy everything I have?"
Yu Xiaogang paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "Bibi Dong, you are the first person I have ever loved! If you are hurt, I will react the same way!"
"You're talking nonsense!" The mature woman's use of vulgar language had a unique charm. Bibi Dong roared excitedly, "You love me, yet you leave me? Don't give me those high-sounding reasons! I'll ask you, when you were with your sister, was the pressure and gossip you faced greater than when you were with me? No! Not at all! You don't deserve to say you love me!"
Seeing his shameful act exposed, Yu Xiaogang retorted, "Hmph~ You shouldn't ask me why I left you back then; you should ask the dead Pope! Bibi Dong, let's end our relationship here! Today is the last time I'll see you!"
After saying that, Yu Xiaogang turned and left.
Bibi Dong was left in the Papal Palace, somewhat dazed, with tears streaming down her face.
She hated Yu Xiaogang for over twenty years, and she also loved him for over twenty years!
However, everything that happened today tells us one thing: what exactly is all this persistence all these years worth?
"Could it be... that everything Dugu Lin said is true? Impossible! Impossible!"
Bibi Dong glanced at the teacup Yu Xiaogang had just touched, but didn't run over to lick it.
(PS: In the original story, he did greedily lick the teacup, which is utterly shocking.)
