After returning to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the mechanical voice that sounded in his mind once again proved that his guess was correct.
"Ice God's Ninth Trial: Defeat the Asura God. During the trial, the trial-taker will have full access to the power of the Ice God. Upon completion of the trial, they will directly inherit the divine position."
Hearing this voice, Ning Bei almost laughed out of anger. Was this Ice God overly confident in him, or did she have no self-awareness? Were you, a first-level god, serious about setting a trial requirement to defeat a God King?
However, at this moment, the oppressive feeling in Ning Bei's heart vanished without a trace. After all, this illusion trial might not necessarily require him to truly defeat the Asura God. Perhaps it was testing his courage? The courage to challenge a strong opponent, or to find a way out of a desperate situation? Otherwise, what was the point of setting a trial that was completely impossible to complete?
Having figured this out, Ning Bei instantly shed all the pressure on his shoulders, or rather, this pressure could no longer bring him any sense of oppression.
Upon his return, Ning Bei immediately announced his seclusion, beginning to focus solely on researching the final battle with Tang San, ignoring everything else. Even in this illusion, he didn't plan on letting that little brat have an easy time.
Days passed one by one. The Tang Sect also assisted the Star Luo Empire in completing the annexation of the Heaven Dou Empire. In this illusion, Little Angel's decades of painstaking planning were ruined. Tang San, who had finally achieved the Asura God position, also felt that the time was ripe and launched a full-scale attack on Spirit Hall.
Outside Spirit City, Tang San, with his pale long hair and blood-red eyes, was leading the Star Luo army and the Tang Sect forces, confronting the Spirit Hall troops led by Bibi Dong across the city walls.
Looking at the dense crowd below, Bibi Dong's heart sank to the bottom.
In the end, can I not escape the fate of being a pawn? It's truly laughable.
"That's not necessarily true, you know?"
Bibi Dong, whose thoughts were interrupted, was stunned for a moment, then her eyes burst with light. Following the sound, she looked behind her. Ning Bei was slowly walking towards her.
"How is it? Do you have a way to deal with that guy?"
"No, but I have a way to end all this absurdity."
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Bibi Dong gave him a look that said, You must be kidding me. If you can't defeat the opponent, what are you talking about ending everything?
Looking at the Pope's expression, Ning Bei felt a wave of amusement. How could this person be so tragic? She was a pawn in the hands of the Rakshasa God, and also in the hands of the Asura God. In the end, in the Ice God Trial, she was still a pawn.
He reached out his sinful hand towards that face that had regained its former noble air and tugged at it. In her bewildered expression, he said:
"Alright, I'm going to end all this now. You just watch from here."
The look of resentment on Bibi Dong's face didn't last for even a second before she was greatly shaken by Ning Bei's words.
"Hey, hey, what are you going to do?"
Looking at Ning Bei, who was heading straight for the enemy's camp, Bibi Dong immediately became anxious, extremely puzzled by Ning Bei's suicidal action.
But understanding that if Ning Bei failed, none of them would have a good outcome, Bibi Dong had no other choice. She could only urge her Soul Power and chase after that figure.
"Hmm?"
Feeling the aura behind him, Ning Bei felt a wave of speechlessness in his heart. I'm going to sacrifice myself, what are you running over for? Do you want to be a pair of desperate lovers with me? Aren't you afraid that Snow'er will dig up both our graves?
"Why are you following? Go back."
"Hmph, this Pope doesn't need you to tell me what to do."
Bibi Dong glared fiercely at Ning Bei, with an expression that said, Anyway, you're about to die, why are you still bothering with me? This made Ning Bei feel a wave of speechlessness. She's truly tsundere even to her death. Then, a mischievous smile curved at the corner of his mouth.
"Do you like this young master?"
"Ah?"
Bibi Dong's figure, flying through the air, stumbled, nearly becoming the first Limit Douluo to fall to her death. After finally steadying herself, Bibi Dong looked at the instigator beside her with a mix of shame and anger.
"You bastard kid, what kind of nonsense are you spouting?"
It seemed Ning Bei had truly angered her. Even the Pope, who was above everyone, started speaking crudely. This only increased Ning Bei's interest in teasing her. After all, she was just a person in an illusion; if he couldn't bully her to death, he'd bully her until she wished she were dead.
"Then why did you follow me if I was going to my death? Don't tell me you want to be a pair of doomed lovers with me? Aren't you afraid Snow'er will dig up our graves when she finds out?"
A terrifying aura surged from Bibi Dong. One could even see faint black wisps rising from her exquisite crown. Seeing the grotesque Spider Legs constantly emerging from behind her, Ning Bei's tone immediately faltered.
"Hey, hey, hey, calm down, calm down. Our enemy is over there. Don't make a fool of yourself."
"No, right now I just want to tear your mouth off. Nothing else matters."
"No need, no need. I'll just go up and self-destruct in a bit. You can save yourself the trouble."
The terrifying aura instantly dissipated. After a moment of stunned silence, Bibi Dong looked deeply at Ning Bei beside her.
"I didn't expect you were planning this? But can you really take Tang San down with you like this?"
How would I know if I can? I'll be dead by then, why would I care about your problems? Ning Bei thought to himself, but in the end, he decided to play along smoothly.
"What else can I do? The woman I love is in the city. I have to do something for her, right? Should I just sneak away like a coward and watch her get bullied?"
"Uh..."
Bibi Dong seemed not to have expected him to say that. A wave of envy for her daughter immediately rose in her heart.
In the same situation, her daughter met a man willing to die for her, while she only met a man who watched her get bullied. It was truly a case of comparing goods and finding one utterly inferior.
After a long while, Bibi Dong sighed.
"Little Snow is very fortunate to meet someone willing to sacrifice his life for her."
"Nonsense. Her happiness is more than just that."
"Hmm? What else?"
"Uh... nothing. I'm going to self-destruct. You should go back quickly."
Looking at the puzzled Bibi Dong, Ning Bei, realizing he had let something slip, immediately changed the subject. But he was met with the Pope's refusal.
"Count me in. We'll self-destruct together. Even if that bastard doesn't die, he'll lose a layer of skin."
"And you still say you don't like me?"
"Get lost! Believe it or not, I'll self-destruct first and blow you up! Your mouth is really asking for it!"
Ning Bei immediately made a zipping motion across his lips, finally calming the Pope's anger. Together it is, he thought. It's not a big deal anyway.
The two descended one after another in front of the Star Luo and Tang Sect armies. The armies became alert and slowly dispersed to both sides. A figure with white hair and red eyes slowly walked forward.
Tang San ignored Bibi Dong, as this woman was already on his kill list.
"Ning Bei? I have a question for you."
"Go ahead. I'll answer depending on my mood."
Ning Bei lazily picked his ear with his pinky finger. This attitude made Tang San frown.
Still calling himself 'this god'? Putting on airs in front of me? I'll annoy you to death, even in an illusion.
"The person who framed me in the Star Dou Great Forest was you, right? And was my father, Tang Hao, killed by you? The bad reputation of the Star Luo Empire was also framed on me, right?"
