Chapter 186: The Transaction
"Let's go!"
Dai Weis waved his hand, and a force of over a thousand men marched towards Spirit City.
Of course, after his previous assassination attempt by Spirit Hall, Dai Weis took his own safety very seriously!
This time, the convoy was led not only by Lin Qiuyang and Li Hu, but also by Lie Tianhu, the White Tiger Legion's deputy commander. His spirit guide contained a new firearm developed by Master Lou Gao!
In the center of the convoy were two carriages, carrying Dai Tianxing and Zhu Lingyun, as well as the Fifth and Sixth Elders of the Clear Sky Sect.
In the original novel, Ju and Ghost Douluo of Spirit Hall attacked Tang San. If it weren't for the valiant assistance of Dugu Bo and Sword Douluo Chenxin, Tang San and Shrek Academy would have been annihilated.
Since Tang San hadn't passed the preliminaries and hadn't absorbed spirit rings of higher levels, he wouldn't be targeted by Spirit Hall, freeing up their forces to deal with the Star Luo Empire.
At least Ju and Ghost Douluo had suffered considerable harm at his hands. Therefore, it was highly likely that Spirit Hall would send a Titled Douluo to assassinate him on the route to Spirit City.
However, Dai Weis was undeterred. Instead, he planned to use himself as a pawn, a move that would give him a slight advantage.
If Spirit Hall sent assassins to kill him, he would stage a sting operation, waiting for them to attack him and then inflict a heavy blow on the Spirit Hall.
To this end, he persuaded Tang Xiao to send the Fifth and Sixth Elders, two Titled Douluo, to wait for the Spirit Hall's men to fall into his trap and then capture them!
Naturally, the two elders would not hesitate to avenge their personal grudges. They immediately followed Dai Weis and caught Spirit Hall off guard.
Meanwhile, in Spirit City, Yu Xiaogang gazed with mixed feelings at the magnificent golden building before him. It was the Pope's Palace.
Even a Platinum Bishop couldn't enter the Pope's Palace freely, but as an Honorary Elder of the Spirit Hall and the former lover of Pope Bibi Dong, Yu Xiaogang was granted free access.
Nervously, Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back and slowly entered the Pope's Palace. With the Pope's Order and his status as an Honorary Elder of the Spirit Hall, he successfully infiltrated the Palace and met his former lover, Bibi Dong.
Soon after, a purple figure slowly approached. This woman, dressed in a regal purple-gold dress, held a scepter, and wore a crown. She had a remarkable figure, and her unmade-up face held a pair of bright eyes, like two beautiful amethysts.
This person was none other than Pope Bibi Dong. Glancing at the aging Yu Xiaogang, a subtle flash of surprise and affection flashed across her eyes. Then, a commanding voice addressed the maids on either side, "All of you, leave! Remember! No one may enter the Pope's Palace without my order. Those who disobey will be killed!"
"As you command, Your Holiness!"
The two maids bowed and slowly retreated. With a resounding roar, the doors of the Pope's Palace closed, but the interior, illuminated by the light of the soul guide, remained luminous, its jade walls and crystal ornaments shimmering in a dazzling display.
Only then did Bibi Dong, with a hint of levity, gaze at the figure before her, like a queen above all others, and questioned, "Long time no see, Xiaogang!"
Yu Xiaogang was mesmerized by the woman on the Pope's throne. Though his expression remained stiff and impassive, his lustful gaze betrayed him.
Even after all these years, Bibi Dong remained as beautiful, graceful, and elegant as ever, as if every beautiful word could describe this succubus.
Yu Xiaogang called out infatuatedly, "Dong'er..."
"Shut up!!!"
Suddenly, a powerful pressure washed over him, instantly engulfing the entire Pope's Palace. Feeling this soul pressure, Yu Xiaogang retreated in fear, until he was backed against the wall, unable to retreat.
"Gudong!"
Yu Xiaogang swallowed, wondering to himself: Has Bibi Dong's strength reached this point?
While he didn't know the true strength of a Titled Douluo, he had met Tang Hao before, and he could say that Bibi Dong's strength was comparable to Tang Hao's, if not greater!
"Enough, Yu Xiaogang! Stop calling me so intimately. Ever since you left me that year, all ties between us have been severed!" Bibi Dong shouted coldly, then raised the corners of her mouth and spoke with a sneer.
"Let's get down to business. What on earth do you want to talk to me about? Don't tell me that you came to me just to reminisce about the past.
If you just wanted to reminisce about the past, you, Yu Xiaogang, would not have come to me until now. No one comes to see you for no reason. Tell me, what's the matter?"
Yu Xiaogang smacked his lips, took a deep breath, and then slowly said: "I have accepted a disciple. He, like you, has twin spirits.
But you know, cultivating a second spirit has disadvantages. Now you are the only one who can solve this disadvantage. I want to ask you, how did you solve the disadvantages of twin spirits?"
"Hehehe..."
After these words came out, Bibi Dong suddenly sneered, and said in a cold and ruthless tone: "Xiaogang, I knew you didn't come to me for no reason. It turns out that you have accepted a disciple with twin spirits? But why should I tell you?
You abandoned me back then, and now you still want me to help you. What are you dreaming about? I won't tell you, go away!"
"Dong'er, I..."
"Enough! Xiaogang, if you dare to call me Dong'er again, I will break your legs! Get out of here!"
Seeing that Bibi Dong was about to close the door and send him away, Yu Xiaogang waved his hand and hurriedly said, "Wait a minute! Dong... ahem, Your Holiness the Pope, I know another secret. I am willing to tell you this secret. I hope to make a deal with you in exchange for a solution to the disadvantages of twin spirits."
"Oh? What secrets can you have? I'm too lazy to listen!"
"Oh? Is that so?" Yu Xiaogang smiled playfully and said, "Then the secret of the Star Luo Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tiles Sect, aren't you interested?"
"What?"
Bibi Dong frowned slightly after these words came out. Since it was related to the Star Luo Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tiles Sect, no matter whether Yu Xiaogang was talking nonsense or it was true, she had to listen.
"Then tell me. I want to see what comes out of your dog's mouth."
Despite Bibi Dong's mockery, Yu Xiaogang remained calm and said with a smile, "Pope, do you know about Prism Grass?"
"Prism Grass? What is that? I have no interest in a weed!"
"Haha, Prism Grass is not a weed. From what I've heard, it's a top-grade herb that can accelerate the evolution of spirits, allowing the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda's spirit to evolve into the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda!"
After her spirit evolved into the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda, Ning Rongrong eagerly returned to Shrek Academy to share the story with everyone. The words "Prism Grass" also took to heart Yu Xiaogang.
Now, he intended to use this secret to extort Bibi Dong's solution to the drawbacks of having twin spirits.
As for offending the Seven Treasure Glazed Tiles Sect, as long as he kept it secret, who would know? Could Ning Fengzhi even know his relationship with Bibi Dong?
