The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect was in a complete mess. Tang San, Ma Hongjun, Yu Ruyan, and Dai Mubai were all gone.
In addition, there was that maidservant, who had accomplished her task and retired.
It had only been one night, yet Tang San had completed his revenge. His actions were swift and decisive, fully in accordance with the teachings of the "Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record." For those whom he had determined had chosen the path to death, he did not show the slightest mercy, nor did he have any delay.
As Tang San, who possessed the wisdom of a God-King, after obtaining his Soul Vein, a strong thought of hurrying to the place of the divine trial had been born in his heart. This world, to him, was filled with too much unfriendliness and unpredictable variables.
Therefore, after completing his revenge, Tang San did not stay for a moment. He quickly composed his mood and prepared to set foot for the Slaughter City. Before this, he still had to make a trip to the soul beast forest to kill the Man-Faced Demon Spider, in the hope of obtaining his external soul bone, the Eight Spider Lances.
As for the subsequent Soul Veins, he had no intention of going to Spirit City again. That place was too dangerous. That Lin Feng made him feel very uneasy. He basically knew the principle of the Soul Veins; what he lacked was the means to reproduce it.
It was just like the principle of nuclear fusion. All students knew it, but you ask him to build a nuclear bomb and see?
In Tang San's view, it was nothing more than that Lin Feng's martial soul was a little special, able to easily regulate and stabilize the energy contained within a soul ring. Although he did not have such an ability now, as long as he had divine power, it would be the same. There would always be a way to reproduce Lin Feng's means.
A few days later, as Tang San had thought, he once again obtained the external soul bone, the Eight Spider Lances, in the Star Dou Great Forest. In the principle of not wasting, he had absorbed the entire corpse of the Man-Faced Demon Spider, turning it into nourishment for his Blue Silver Grass.
Then, he resolutely went far away in the direction of the Slaughter City.
In Heaven Dou City, public opinion was rife. Some said that Tang San had been cuckolded and had gone on a killing spree in a fit of rage and shame. Some said that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect had designed a trap to frame Tang San, but had been seen through by him, which had triggered internal turmoil.
Of course, the most interesting thing was that the brothel business in Heaven Dou City had been much colder these few days. The maidservant's list had almost blown up all the playboys among the Heaven Dou nobility. They did not dare to come out to seek pleasure and friends during this period, for fear of running into a fellow rider.
Even within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect itself, a family comedy was being staged. Certain fellows who were old but not respectable had run off to get involved with those of their daughters' generation. Such a family style, no wonder they could produce so many illegitimate daughters.
"Luomian, is this the good assistant you found!" Yu Yuanzhen slammed all the cups and saucers on the desk to the ground, glaring at the trembling Yu Luomian before him with uncontrollable anger. Yu Luomian's face was pale, his forehead sweating, yet he did not dare to refute in the slightest.
"I also didn't expect, sigh, that Ruyan was actually ridden by a hundred men... and I never expected that she would choose this way to retaliate against the family," he sighed.
"Big Brother, things are already like this. What should we do next?"
"What to do? I still want to ask you!" Yu Yuanzhen was furious. They had already been to the residences of these few people and had sensed the soul power fluctuation belonging to Tang San. The result was self-evident. The worst case was that these few people had already been killed by Tang San.
"Since Tang San has run away, then let's not talk about other things for now. No, don't say anything to the outside world. Let them guess," Yu Yuanzhen's eyes were downcast.
"Since he has run away, it means he is also afraid. But the evidence of the three people's deaths is insufficient, and Tang San's soul power fluctuation has also disappeared. No matter how the outside world guesses, in the end, the deaths of these few people cannot be determined."
"As long as we insist that we don't know, Star Luo and the Clear Sky Sect can't hold us responsible. As for the public opinion storm outside, we must severely deny it and absolutely not admit a single bit!"
"Luomian, you immediately arrange for people to suppress those rumors. We must not let these scandals tarnish the reputation of our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect. To the outside, just claim that Tang San and the others had said before that they were going out for training, and for some reason, they are temporarily unreachable now."
"Remember, it must be done cleanly and neatly, and no handle can be left behind!"
Yu Yuanzhen pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "We need a scapegoat. Someone who can bear all the responsibility or can attract people's attention at this time. Only in this way can we completely clear ourselves of this incident and let the sect regain its reputation. As for who it is, you figure it out."
"The Clear Sky Sect's side..."
Yu Yuanzhen was silent for a moment. "What's Tang Xiao's reaction?"
Yu Luomian shook his head. "It's very strange. Tang Xiao did not immediately come to hold us accountable. It seems a dispute has broken out within the Clear Sky Sect. No one from their side has come over for now."
"...Then let's wait. Let's think of a countermeasure first."
In Spirit City, after learning about the events that had taken place in Heaven Dou during this period, Lin Feng couldn't help but be amused. The esteemed God-King, cuckolded. And by Emperor Ruyan at that.
"Inform 'Xue Qinghe'. Have him take this matter as an opportunity to give the nobles and imperial princes on that list a good beating, to weaken their position in the court. It would be best if he can find some handle on them. At the same time, don't forget to demote a batch and rope in a batch."
"Yes, Holy Son."
"Mmm," Lin Feng took the letter from the bishop. "Are you sure Tang San appeared in Northland City?"
"It has been confirmed. When he passed through Northland Province, he needed to be checked to enter the country. After being exposed, he quickly left, but his whereabouts have been grasped by us. The people over there are tracking him. Looking at this direction, he is heading for the Far West."
"Let them continue to follow. If Tang San enters the Slaughter City, monitor him closely and wait for my subsequent arrangements."
"Yes," the bishop asked with surprise, "Your Highness, Holy Son, how are you so sure that Tang San will go to the Slaughter City? That is a paradise for fallen soul masters. For him, a Soul Elder, to go in, isn't that looking for death?"
"A guess," Lin Feng said with a light laugh, waved his hand, and signaled for the other party to leave.
Seeing this, the bishop did not ask more. He bowed and saluted, then hurriedly withdrew from the room.
Lin Feng stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the distant horizon, an unknown brilliance sparkling in his eyes. "Whether the Asura has given you special care or not will soon be clear. If not, then unfortunately, you are probably going to die."
The sky gradually darkened. Lin Feng walked out of the library room and went to the Pope's Hall. A working man in this world gets off work when the time comes. At this time, only Bibi Dong was left in the Pope's Hall.
Ever since the Rakshasa's evil thoughts had been removed from Bibi Dong's mind, her mental state had greatly improved. Her entire person exuded an unprecedented ease and relief.
She no longer needed to endure the torment from the Rakshasa's divine power. The shackles in the depths of her soul seemed to have been completely broken, causing her cultivation to faintly show signs of a breakthrough.
In the Pope's Hall, the soul tool lights flickered, illuminating Bibi Dong's peerlessly beautiful and majestic face. She sat quietly on the Pope's seat, her eyes closed in meditation, as if feeling the flow of soul power within her body, or as if thinking about something else.
Lin Feng stepped into the Pope's Hall, his footsteps light. He walked to Bibi Dong's side, held her in his arms, and said softly, "Still thinking about the problem of the divine trial?"
Bibi Dong opened her eyes, a trace of gentleness flashing within. She gently leaned on Lin Feng's shoulder and said softly, "It's not just the divine trial, but also the matter of Tang San. You have already grasped his whereabouts, right?"
Lin Feng nodded, gently stroking Bibi Dong's purple hair, and said with a smile, "Yes. He is, as we expected, heading for the Slaughter City. It seems he has an urgent desire to improve his strength."
Bibi Dong smiled faintly. "The Slaughter City is a place that tempers a person. Back then, when I was there, I also had to go through nine deaths and one life to successfully come out and get the Slaughter God Domain. However, with Tang San's current strength, to want to survive there is probably not easy, right?"
"His life and death are not important," Lin Feng said indifferently. "What's important is whether he can become a chess piece in our plan. If he can survive in the Slaughter City and his strength is greatly improved, then for us, it is undoubtedly good news. When we go to the Slaughter City, it will also be good to act according to plan."
"Mmm."
A look of weariness was on Bibi Dong's face. She closed her eyes slightly and extended her two arms towards Lin Feng. The meaning was self-evident. Seeing this, Lin Feng gently took Bibi Dong into his arms, letting her two arms wrap around his neck, so that she could rest more comfortably on him.
"Your second martial soul's soul rings, how to turn them into Soul Veins, I am still thinking about it. However, I already have an idea. When I am a Soul Douluo, I will try it out. If it is feasible, then you may have divine-level strength before Xue'er."
Bibi Dong chuckled lightly, turned her head, and gave Lin Feng a kiss on the cheek. "You are always so thoughtful for me. However, I am not in a hurry for power for the time being. As long as I can be with you and advance steadily, I will be content."
"What's there to compare with Xue'er? If I want to compare, of course I have to compare with Gu Yuena. But speaking of which," she looked at Lin Feng with a teasing gaze, "a few days ago, I suddenly discovered that it seems a little thief has entered our secret room. Xiao Feng, who do you think it could be?"
Lin Feng's body stiffened for a moment. "Oh? Is that so? Then we must investigate thoroughly and see which blind little thief dares to break into our secret room," Lin Feng said, feigning composure, but in his heart, he was already rapidly calculating the possible situations and countermeasures.
Seeing his appearance, Bibi Dong couldn't help but let out a "pfft" laugh. "What are you so nervous about? Could it be you? But the hair I found was a long golden hair. You tell me, here, who can enter that secret room and also have long golden hair? Who could it be?"
Lin Feng took a deep breath. "Dong'er, you're not angry?"
"Angry? Hmph hmph," a cunning smile appeared on Bibi Dong's peerlessly beautiful face. "Of course I'm angry. But, I'm more interested in knowing who our little thief is, to actually be so bold!"
Her fair hand reached down and grabbed Lin Feng's soft spot!
"Hiss—" Lin Feng's body trembled. He knew this matter would be discovered by Bibi Dong. Ever since Qian Renxue had gone there for the first time, she seemed to have gotten addicted, from time to time wanting to do some exciting things.
Her original words were like this: However many times Bibi Dong wanted you here, she would come here that many times.
Lin Feng smiled bitterly. He gently held Bibi Dong's wrist and said softly, "Dong'er, Xue'er is just being childish. Don't be like her. I will surely pay attention next time and not let this kind of thing happen again."
"Oh?" Hearing this, the cunning in Bibi Dong's eyes grew even stronger. She chuckled lightly and released her hand. "I haven't said who it was. How did you confess without being prompted? Xue'er's learning ability is really strong, isn't it?"
The corner of Lin Feng's mouth twitched. "How did you find out? I remember..."
"You remember that when you left, you restored everything to its original state? I'm very sorry, but I really didn't find any long golden hair. I was just tricking you just now. Unfortunately, you cleaned up too cleanly, and also erased some traces that should have existed."
Lin Feng was a little puzzled. "What traces?"
Bibi Dong's face turned red. She looked at Lin Feng with annoyance. "What do you care! Let's forget about what happened before. I'll just say this once. In the future, you are... NOT! ALLOWED! TO! GO! TO! MY! PLACE! AGAIN!"
Her words carried an unquestionable firmness. Seeing this, Lin Feng hurriedly nodded in agreement, secretly glad that this was just a false alarm.
"Dong'er, don't worry. In the future, I will absolutely not let Xue'er fool around again," Lin Feng promised. At the same time, he also secretly decided to strengthen his "education" of Qian Renxue, not to let her be so wanton and unrestrained anymore, and was determined to re-establish his husbandly authority!
Hearing this, Bibi Dong's face softened slightly. She sighed lightly and snuggled into Lin Feng's embrace. "Xiao Feng, you are no longer exclusively mine. But that place belongs to the two of us. No third person is allowed to interfere. Understand? What was Xue'er thinking? Why did she go to my secret room?"
Because of the divine trial she set for herself?
Lin Feng pondered for a moment. "She found it very exciting."
Bibi Dong was stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth and chuckled lightly. "Is this an angel? To learn from me is truly a sin."
"However, there is one identity that she cannot learn. I am the Pope, and I was also her nominal elder."
She stretched out her hand, circulated her soul power to lock the main door of the Pope's Hall, and cast a layer of a soundproof domain. Then she pushed Lin Feng onto the Pope's throne and then straddled him, not caring at all about the documents that were scattered on the ground from the desk due to her actions.
A smile was in her eyes. "I suddenly find that it's also very exciting here like this. You tell me now, is it she who is learning from me, or am I learning from her?"
"Lord Holy Son, I am wearing the Pope's robe now, you know. And here is still the main hall of the Pope of Spirit Hall. You and I, at this time, are even more so on the Pope's throne. Don't you want to do something?"
As if feeling it wasn't stimulating enough, Bibi Dong opened her Martial Soul True Body. Under the customizable Martial Soul True Body, Bibi Dong's entire person looked even more demonic and alluring. She chuckled lightly and whispered in Lin Feng's ear, "Lord Holy Son, I am Her Majesty the Pope, the future emperor of this world. And you, can you conquer me?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Lin Feng's eyes. Role-playing again?
He chuckled lightly, his two hands wrapping around Bibi Dong's waist, his tone carrying a hint of amusement. "Oh? Is Her Majesty the Pope trying to test this Holy Son's self-control? Then I'll have to perform well."
The figures of the two intertwined in the light and shadow. The air was filled with an indescribable ambiguity and scorching heat.
Their movements became more and more intense, as if to pour out all their passion and desire in this one moment. Bibi Dong's breathing became rapid, her eyes sparkling with a hazy look and satisfaction.
