Soul Land—Chapter 57: Bibi Dong Learns About Ling Qianyao's Existence
In the early morning, the sun shone through the gaps in the curtains onto the bed.
Zhu Zhuqing slowly opened her sleepy eyes and found herself still nestled in Ling Qianyao's arms. Her martial soul possession state had quietly retreated at some point, leaving only the memory of her tail swaying.
"Cat's tail was entangled," she blushed.
Looking up at Ling Qianyao, she saw that he was also gazing at her gently, his eyes full of pampering and love.
Zhu Zhuqing licked the corner of her mouth, her voice a little hoarse, and said softly, "Good morning, Qianyao."
A new day begins in the morning, and the morning is when yang energy is strongest. Zhu Zhuqing quickly noticed that Ling Qianyao seemed a little strange, and her face flushed slightly.
"Do you need help?"
Her voice was as thin as a mosquito. She truly didn't expect that Ling Qianyao would recover so quickly—
At the junction of the two empires, in the Spirit City.
The Pope's Palace.
On the Pope's throne sat a stunning woman.
Wearing a purple-gold Pope robe, a nine-curve purple-gold crown on her head, and holding a Pope's scepter inlaid with countless gems.
Her face could be called perfect, on par with Qian Renxue, and all kinds of beautiful words such as noble and elegant seemed applicable to this woman.
Although she is no longer young, the years seem to have left her with no trace.
From the outside, she looks only in her twenties or thirties, and her charm remains captivating.
This is the current Pope, Bibi Dong.
At this moment, she stared at a document in her hand, scanning its content line by line. After digesting all the information, she gently put down the document.
She lightly tapped the throne with her fingertips.
Looking to the side below, there was a person with a charming appearance—Chrysanthemum Douluo.
"Yue Guan, is all this news true?"
"Replying to the Pope, it is indeed true."
"Hmm."
Bibi Dong's eyes moved slightly. "Can it purify martial souls with negative attributes?" She gently rubbed her temples. "Qian Renxue asked you for the flower and plant book, and then obtained the natural treasures from Dugu Bo's secret medicine garden through Ling Qianyao—that is, the immortal herb, right?"
"Yes."
Bibi Dong said lightly, "Don't forget that you are from my Pope's Palace. Before doing anything, remember to report to me first. Forget it this time—you can take the Singular Velvet Sky Reaching Chrysanthemum for now."
"Thank you, Pope!" Chrysanthemum Douluo's face lit up with delight. He had been very eager for this kind of spiritual plant with the same martial soul as his. If he hadn't been cautious, he would have swallowed it directly.
"No problem." Bibi Dong waved her hand. "You can leave first."
"Yes." Chrysanthemum Douluo happily left and headed straight for the Singular Velvet Sky Reaching Chrysanthemum.
Bibi Dong pondered for a moment, a flicker of red flashing in her eyes. She shook her head, her gaze clearing. "Are there any immortal herbs that can improve soul power and promote the evolution of martial souls? Are there any that can purify evil thoughts?"
"And that Ling Qianyao—based on the current news, Qian Renxue seems to care for him excessively. Why is that?
Could his martial soul's ability help me?"
To be honest, from the intelligence sent back by Heaven Dou Empire, Ling Qianyao had obtained far more immortal herbs from Dugu Bo's secret medicine garden than those already known.
She knew Qian Renxue very well. If there were no more immortal herbs, she wouldn't have given the only one directly to Chrysanthemum Douluo.
Bibi Dong tapped her fingers on the armrest of her throne, lost in thought.
Moreover, Ling Qianyao might know Qian Renxue's true identity. In that case, he could have gained her trust and had her send messages back to the Spirit Hall—so they could protect Ling Qianyao and Zhu Zhuqing as the powers behind them.
And he chose to reveal the Spirit Hall and told her about the whale glue.
She understood Qian Renxue's character well; she would never do anything without a purpose. Ling Qianyao must have something special—perhaps his martial soul possessed unknown abilities—that made Qian Renxue attach so much importance to him.
Bibi Dong wanted to investigate whether there was an immortal herb that could help her alleviate the erosion caused by the evil thoughts of the Rakshasa God. But her relationship with Qian Renxue overshadowed that possibility.
"Ling Qianyao, hum." A hint of red flickered in Bibi Dong's eyes. "It seems you cherish this guy very much. But since he is already a member of the Spirit Hall, he is my person. When the time is right, I will transfer him away from you."
She slowly stood up and took a deep breath. "I need to arrange some people to go to Heaven Dou Empire and take a look. The relationship between Qian Renxue and Ling Qianyao is a bit abnormal. The time it took for them to trust each other is too short."
Unless it's the martial soul fusion technique?
Bibi Dong's eyes flashed. "If Ling Qianyao and Qian Renxue can perform the martial soul fusion technique, then their relationship will be—it's not surprising that it's developing rapidly."
But is that even possible? A martial soul like the six-winged angel could have other martial souls resonating with it.
She frowned and snorted inwardly. "Oh, no matter what, there's still a long way to go. I will investigate everything one by one. If it is a martial soul fusion technique, then he can't stay with you any longer."
"I will take away all beauty from your life."
Just as she had poured all her maternal love and care into Hu Liena, she had no intention of leaving anything beautiful for Qian Renxue to calm her twisted mind from past tragedies.
