Chapter 48: Black World Bibi Dong: Envy, Jealousy, and Hate!
White World, Spirit Hall.
Seeing the images on the heavenly curtain, everyone's gaze focused on Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang.
Qian Daoliu and the others were somewhat surprised; they hadn't expected the two to have met so early.
Hu Liena's reaction was much simpler.
She put herself in those shoes. If she were the one absorbing a spirit ring, and the first thing she saw upon opening her eyes was someone standing in front of her, slaying a Spirit Beast that tried to attack her...
She would probably have a deep memory of that scene too, right?
"So, is this how Teacher and Dragon God His Eminence first met?"
Hu Liena looked toward Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang beside her.
At this moment, Bibi Dong, as the protagonist, couldn't help but recall the scene from back then.
Bibi Dong actually knew exactly what happened while she was absorbing her spirit ring.
She knew that Spirit Beasts had attacked during that period, and they were all ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts.
The situation had been incredibly dangerous.
She also knew that someone else had joined the battle later, and another person had stayed by her side.
She was even more aware of that Spirit Beast that had suddenly lunged at her.
At that time, Bibi Dong, who was still a fraction away from completing the absorption of her spirit ring, thought she was going to die right then and there.
But at that exact moment, the person beside her blocked the Spirit Beast's attack, giving the despairing Bibi Dong a new lease on life.
It just so happened that at that moment, she finished absorbing the spirit ring. She opened her eyes, and the sight that greeted her was Yu Xiaogang slaying the Wind Baboon.
With such a scenario, how could she not remember it vividly?
"Thinking back now, the scene from those years is truly nostalgic..."
Bibi Dong leaned against Yu Xiaogang's shoulder with a face full of emotion.
If that hadn't happened, perhaps Xiao Gang and I wouldn't have become husband and wife.
One can only say that sometimes, fate is such a subtle thing.
"Is it that nostalgic?"
Yu Xiaogang looked at the heavenly curtain with some confusion.
From his perspective, he had simply slain a ten-year Wind Baboon.
Even though he hadn't obtained a spirit ring yet at the time, it was just a casual effort.
What was there to be nostalgic about?
"...Forget it, keep watching. There's no talking to a cultivation-obsessed head like yours!"
Bibi Dong gave Yu Xiaogang a huffy little punch.
On the other side in the Black World, Spirit Hall.
"They... they met so early?"
Bibi Dong stared blankly at the images on the heavenly curtain, full of envy as she projected herself into the scene over and over again in her mind.
Projecting herself absorbing a spirit ring and being protected by Xiao Gang.
Projecting herself opening her eyes to see Xiao Gang's solid back as the first thing in view.
Even though it was just imagination, before this, she never had any similar memories that allowed her to look back on her youth like this.
"What kind of future will meeting so early bring them?"
Bibi Dong began to fantasize in her heart.
Previously, Bibi Dong didn't have much interest in the video of Dragon God Douluo Yu Xiaogang.
What she wanted to see was her own Yu Xiaogang.
But from this moment on, she no longer thought that way.
The current Bibi Dong desperately wanted to know what exactly happened between her parallel world self and Xiao Gang.
Meeting so early, would they be able to be together?
Thinking this, Bibi Dong naturally thought of the reason why she couldn't be with Yu Xiaogang.
At the thought of the person who prevented her and Xiao Gang from being together, endless hatred welled up in Bibi Dong's heart.
Then came a sense of dejection.
"I suppose my parallel world self's final outcome will be about the same. At that time, Xiao Gang and I wouldn't be able to resist a Titled Douluo."
[The video continues...]
[Gazing at the boy before her who was about her age, curiosity flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes.]
[It was also at this moment that Yu Xiaogang turned his head and glanced at Bibi Dong, their eyes meeting.]
["Father, the absorption over here is finished!"]
[Without a second word, Yu Xiaogang directly shouted for his father.]
[In the next second, three figures landed beside Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong one after another.]
["Withdraw!"]
[The three exchanged looks. Then Yu Yuanzhen tucked Yu Xiaogang under his arm, while the Titled Douluo called Old Dragon didn't even deactivate his Spirit Avatar, letting Bibi Dong sit directly on his back.]
[The group quickly left the area.]
[It was unclear how long they ran, but by the time they stopped, their surroundings had become completely quiet.]
["Alright, we're far enough. Let's take a break," Yu Yuanzhen suggested.]
[The two Titled Douluo also nodded.]
["I really must thank you this time, Brother Yu. If it weren't for you, we would have been in a rough spot."]
["Ha, it's nothing. With our relationship from adventuring across the continent together back then, could I just stand by and watch when you're in danger?"]
[After catching his breath, Yu Yuanzhen began to converse with the two Titled Douluo.]
[During this time, Yu Yuanzhen also introduced them to Yu Xiaogang.]
[The Titled Douluo called Old Dragon was the Dragon Scale Douluo, a rank ninety-one Titled Douluo and a good brother Yu Yuanzhen had met while adventuring on the Douluo Continent.]
[The other Titled Douluo's title was Iron Armor. Both of them were Titled Douluo belonging to Spirit Hall.]
[And the Bibi Dong they were protecting was the Disciple of the current Supreme Pontiff. Her trip to the Star Dou Great Forest this time was to obtain her second spirit ring.]
[Learning this information, Yu Xiaogang was somewhat surprised.]
[After all, Bibi Dong looked about the same age as him, yet she was already here for her second spirit ring.]
[This talent was truly enviable.]
["...By the way, Brother Yu, is this your youngest son?"]
[During the conversation, Dragon Scale Douluo curiously sized up Yu Xiaogang.]
[News about Yu Xiaogang had spread throughout the upper circles of the Douluo Continent.]
[He was born dull and slow, only appearing like a normal child before his Martial Soul Awakening. Then, as the son of a Titled Douluo, his Spirit underwent a malignant mutation, and his Innate Spirit Power was only rank one.]
[With so many negative conditions piled on one child, to be honest, he felt a bit sorry for Yu Xiaogang.]
["Hahaha, yes, he's my youngest son. I brought him here this time to get his first spirit ring."]
[Yu Yuanzhen introduced Yu Xiaogang to Dragon Scale Douluo with a face full of smiles.]
[While introducing him, the pride in his voice couldn't be hidden no matter how hard he tried.]
[Hearing the pride in Yu Yuanzhen's voice, Dragon Scale Douluo and Iron Armor Douluo looked at Yu Xiaogang with confusion.]
[This child doesn't seem particularly special, does he? Wasn't he previously considered the shame of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?]
[So why would Yu Yuanzhen be so proud when introducing him?]
[Curious, Dragon Scale Douluo wanted to probe into Yu Xiaogang's situation, but unfortunately, Yu Yuanzhen just smiled and didn't speak.]
["Tsk, so mysterious. No matter how impressive he is, he's just someone with rank one Innate Spirit Power. Can he really compare to our Spirit Hall's future Holy Maiden?"]
[Iron Armor Douluo thought to himself.]
[Yu Yuanzhen could guess most of what Dragon Scale Douluo and the other were thinking without even trying.]
[He could only say: you're looking down on my son too much. One day in the future, he's bound to make your jaws drop!]
