Chapter 225: Filling the Soul Ring Gap
"How did she come here?"
Suddenly, Bibi Dong sensed a familiar yet hateful aura arriving at the Pontiff's Hall.
If not driven away, they will likely keep entangling.
For now, she still cannot expose her own affairs.
Thus she actively withdrew from her cultivation state.
After all, reaching the hundred-rank True God is not something that can be broken through by simply closing off and cultivating.
She was about to execute the second plan.
Cultivation was useless before gathering enough negative energy.
"Why are you here if you're not staying in the Heaven Dou Empire?"
After leaving the Rakshasa Secret Realm, Bibi Dong appeared before Qian Renxue.
A flash of disgust for Qian Renxue's holy aura passed through her eyes.
They were clearly opposites, yet they ended up as mother and daughter.
This world is truly ridiculous.
However, she now feels somewhat sober.
Looking back at her past actions, many places were indeed too radical.
It was not her style.
She knew this was her reason being influenced by the Rakshasa God Soul's thoughts, revealing her darkest side.
Now the Rakshasa God Soul mysteriously disappeared, unable to control her, so her own reason gradually recovered.
Although she still disliked Qian Renxue, she was no longer as hateful as before.
No matter what, the other person is a piece of flesh that fell from her belly.
What she disliked was the other's martial soul and holy power.
She did not dislike Qian Renxue as a person.
Over these years, she actually understood everything Qian Renxue had done.
All she wanted was to gain her approval.
But under the influence of the Rakshasa God Soul, she also ended up using the other.
"Mom." Qian Renxue said these two words with tears in her eyes.
It awakened Bibi Dong's motherly heart.
It made her body tremble slightly.
"Did you forget our pact between us?" Bibi Dong took a deep breath, calmed herself, and slowly spoke.
Her tone was no longer so icy.
Perhaps the word 'Mom' truly awakened a hint of conscience.
She also realized that since her revenge, after opening the Rakshasa God's trial and being influenced by the Rakshasa God Soul, her actions toward Qian Renxue were utterly beastly.
So she also felt somewhat guilty and wanted to make amends.
But her personality is very strong; she would not directly show such thoughts on her face.
This is what is colloquially called being unable to let go of face and the dignity of a mother.
Qian Renxue froze, realizing her mother was no longer as cold as before.
Qian Renxue said: "You might not yet understand the current situation outside; Grandfather let me abandon the mission, and after I become the Angel Goddess, I will then complete the world's great unification."
After hearing this, Bibi Dong's face flashed with displeasure.
You say to just give up on something we've been laying out for so long?
We've already reached the point where we can close the net.
"Tell me, what exactly happened?" However, one thing she couldn't deny was that she had been cultivating in the Rakshasa Secret Realm these days, and truly didn't know what was happening outside.
Qian Renxue told Bibi Dong everything she knew.
Only then did Bibi Dong realize that, during the time she was not in power, the outside world had changed so much.
A mysterious force was driving things.
Suspected to be a god, this was even said personally by Qian Daoliu.
"Could this be related to the disappearance of the Rakshasa God Soul?"
"This indirectly helped me, but also harmed me."
Bibi Dong thought inwardly.
If it truly involved a god, then she was indeed insignificant. Because her first target for revenge was that youth who had nearly beaten her to death.
That guy's power, even the Rakshasa God Soul could not match.
"Could all of this be related to him?"
Suddenly, Bibi Dong thought of something, her pupils constricted, and her face drastically changed!
Everything, in fact, had been laid out long ago!
For a moment, she felt like she too had become a pawn, a chill running down her back.
Previously, wanting to unify the continent was entirely due to the Rakshasa God Soul's influence, with ambition infinitely amplified, gradually turning mad.
Now the Rakshasa God Soul has disappeared.
Bibi Dong's reason gradually recovered its clarity.
Thus her actions also regained reason.
After weighing the pros and cons, she also discovered that the continent's sudden shifts were truly being pushed by a pair of black hands.
Even Qian Daoliu fears it, so she cannot possibly face it easily.
After a moment of thought, they said, "This isn't your fault; plans can't keep up with changes. So follow your grandfather's wish, go back and properly inherit the Angel God. If it's truly a god pushing from behind, then only by becoming a god yourself can you have the ability to end it."
"But I haven't fulfilled my promise to you; will you still acknowledge me?" Qian Renxue asked timidly.
"Xiao Xue, you've worked hard these years. From now on, you may call me whatever you like, but only in private; in front of others, you must address me as Your Holiness."
Bibi Dong stepped forward, reached out and touched Qian Renxue's cheek. Although she despised the power of light, she did not despise her own daughter, and she spoke slowly.
She still carried a faint smile.
"Mom!!"
Qian Renxue saw her body trembling and felt very happy at that moment.
She eagerly threw herself into Bibi Dong's embrace.
She cried miserably, letting out all the grievances of these years; her eye sockets were very red.
Great, her mother finally acknowledged her.
"I've already spoken with grandfather; let him restore your position as Pope and return to power. Grandfather agreed, so I'm telling you this." Qian Renxue said.
Bibi Dong wiped away her tears: "I understand. Go back; becoming a god is what you must do."
"Mm." Qian Renxue nodded and left the Papal Hall.
Soon, only Bibi Dong remained in the Papal Hall.
She calmly analyzed the current situation.
"If it were the previous complete empire, I might have been more troubled, but now the world is in great chaos, with incessant war; this is not necessarily a bad opportunity for my ascension to godhood."
"War will kill many people; even without lifting a finger myself, I can gather vast amounts of negative energy from the dead to fuel my godhood."
"Once I become a god, I will find you and take revenge!"
Bibi Dong thought, and a torrent of hatred and killing intent arose.
"However, before I become a god, I still have one thing to do: fill my second martial soul. Next, I will launch a killing spree against spirit beasts."
As of now, her second martial soul remains unfilled.
Because she hasn't found a suitable spirit beast.
The ten-thousand-year-old her wasn't particularly fond of it, but circumstances now force her.
Hundred-thousand-year spirit beasts are hard to find.
So she could only settle for using the highest-year ten-thousand-year spirit beasts available to fill the gap.
Time was pressing; she summoned Yue Guan and Gui Mei back.
"The Grand Priest has returned my authority; from now on, handle the affairs of the Spirit Hall. I have more important matters to attend to."
Bibi Dong spoke to the two of them.
"Yes, sir!" Yue Guan and Gui Mei nodded.
They were originally on Bibi Dong's side.
Even though Bibi Dong's governing power had been nullified by the Grand Priest.
But previously, their hearts would still follow Bibi Dong's arrangements.
However, the opposing party never showed up.
