Wuhun Hall.
As Bibi Dong was walking through the palace corridors, she happened to see the latest diary entry. The words stirred an old memory deep within her heart.
The bun shop at the gate of Wuhun Hall…?
For a moment, her vision blurred.
In her mind, the sunset of that long-ago day appeared once more.
A ragged, dirt-covered little girl sat on the steps, devouring a steaming meat bun with both hands, her small face full of satisfaction and joy. That girl—was her. That scene—was the youth of Bibi Dong that had already passed away.
"Never going back again…" she murmured softly, then began walking toward the grand gates of Wuhun Hall.
At that moment—
Su Chen was sitting outside the very same gate, eating buns and drinking porridge while chatting idly with the shop owner.
"Boss, I can tell—you've got some serious connections," Su Chen said with a grin.
"Running a bun stall right in front of Wuhun Hall, and no one drives you away? That's practically god-tier networking."
The shop owner was an elderly man, over sixty, with a head of white hair. Hearing Su Chen's words, he laughed heartily.
"You've got sharp eyes, young man!"
"Don't be fooled by my old bones. I may just sell buns, but let me tell you—anywhere in Wuhun City, no one dares to chase me off."
Su Chen raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Oh? I can tell there's more to it."
"Grandpa, I've got wine. You've got stories."
As he spoke, Su Chen took out a fine jug of wine from his storage ring.
Seeing that there weren't many customers around noon, the old man grabbed two small bowls and came over to share a drink.
He opened the jug, sniffed it—and his eyes widened.
"Good wine!"
"Young man, you're not ordinary either. If I'm not mistaken, this wine is only supplied internally to bishops of Wuhun Hall."
Su Chen blinked. He was right—the wine was from Wuhun Hall's inner supply. Secretly, Su Chen studied the old man again. There was nothing special about him… certainly not the aura of a titled powerhouse like a God King.
The old man laughed.
"Don't bother looking. I'm just an ordinary man—just lucky. I recognized the wine because… I drink it often!"
"Fine taste! Fine taste!"
Su Chen couldn't help but chuckle. He had some time to kill, so he decided to chat properly.
"Hahaha!"
After draining a bowl of wine, the old man began his tale.
"I remember—it was one summer evening. Under the sunset, one of the Grand Worships of Wuhun Hall brought back a filthy little girl. One look and you could tell—she hadn't eaten for days."
"I was still young then. Even though my martial soul was useless and I couldn't become a soul master, I still wanted to make something of myself. So I tried to please the Grand Worship by giving that little girl two big meat buns."
"Guess what happened after that?"
The old man paused dramatically, poured himself another bowl, and downed it in one gulp.
Su Chen followed suit, curious. "So, what happened next?"
The old man smiled.
"Time flies, boy. That little girl… grew up to become the Pope of Wuhun Hall."
"With just two buns, this old man earned a lifetime of prosperity. I might still sell buns, but my sons and grandsons—every last one of them is a soul master."
"The most powerful of them's already a Soul Emperor!"
Su Chen couldn't help but exclaim, "Good heavens! Grandpa, you're the ultimate angel investor!"
"What's your name, Grandpa?"
The old man smiled proudly. "Just call me Hai."
"Hai Bodong?" Su Chen blurted out.
The old man's eyes widened. "Young man, you've heard my story? Well, of course. I, Hai Bodong, am a bit of a legend in Wuhun City."
Uh…
Su Chen scratched his head awkwardly. Something about this felt off, but he couldn't pinpoint what.
"Old Hai, two baskets of buns," came a cold, clear voice from behind.
Both men turned at the same time—and saw Bibi Dong walking toward them.
"Yes, Your Holiness. Please have a seat," the old man said quickly, giving Su Chen a knowing smile before hurrying off to prepare.
Su Chen's expression was odd. Speak of the devil—she really showed up!
Bibi Dong sat beside him, her tone calm. "How are the buns here?"
Su Chen nodded. "Delicious. You can tell this place has been around for decades."
Bibi Dong nodded slightly, then said softly, "These buns… are the best thing I've ever eaten in this world."
"It's a pity. I'm not like Nana. She's always stayed true to her heart, never forgot where she came from. But after I became the Holy Maiden of Wuhun Hall, I slowly forgot my past—and started believing I really was a princess."
Su Chen thought for a moment and replied, "Yes… and no."
"So what if you are a real princess?"
"The story of the prince and the Cinderella only exists in fairy tales. In reality, only strength paired with strength can last. Even a real princess can't end up with a useless man."
Bibi Dong fell silent for a moment, then nodded slightly. "That's true."
Her feelings were complicated. The more naïve she had once been, the more it showed how well Wuhun Hall had treated her back then.
"Your Holiness, your buns are ready."
The old man returned, placing the baskets on the table. As he left, he shot a regretful look at the half-finished jug of wine—such bad timing! If the Pope hadn't shown up, he could've finished it!
At that moment, Su Chen turned to Bibi Dong.
"Your Holiness, would you like a drink?"
Bibi Dong hesitated briefly, then said, "Not here. Let's go somewhere else."
"Alright."
Su Chen got up to follow her.
Old Hai, the so-called angel investor, watched the two of them leave—without paying—and instantly regretted it.
I messed up…
That young man clearly knows Her Holiness! I should've been the one treating him to wine, not drinking his!
As he muttered in self-blame, he quietly slipped the remaining half jug of wine into his robe.
[Checked in at a bun shop outside Wuhun Hall. Over forty years old—absolutely delicious.]
Bibi Dong: "???"
Just as she was about to take Su Chen somewhere to drink, she saw that line appear in the diary—and went completely speechless.
Really? You even have to write that in the diary?
Wuhun Academy.
Ye Lingling and the others, after reading the diary, turned curiously to Hu Liena.
"Nana-jie, is there really a bun shop outside Wuhun Hall that's that good?"
"Look, even Su Chen wrote about it!"
"Wait—why is there a food stall outside Wuhun Hall's gate?"
They were all baffled. It felt like seeing a street vendor set up right in front of a royal palace—completely absurd.
Hu Liena smiled and explained, "The taste is indeed good. It's meaningful to my teacher. It was the first food she ever had after coming to Wuhun Hall. It carries great significance for her."
Everyone nodded in understanding.
"Then we've got to try it next time."
"If Su Chen says it's good, it must be amazing."
"Hey, it's almost noon anyway. Why don't we go now?"
And so, the group headed together toward the Wuhun Academy gates.
Meanwhile—
Su Chen and Bibi Dong had turned into a narrow alley and entered a small tavern.
By now, Bibi Dong had changed into plain clothing and covered her face with a veil. Though it couldn't hide her graceful figure and breathtaking aura, no one could tell this was the mighty Pope of Wuhun Hall.
Su Chen gave her a curious look. "I can tell—you come here often, don't you?"
