Chapter 703: Bibi Dong's End

~9 min read 1,709 words

Tonight is a night of celebration.

The Gu Lei Dynasty has weathered another crisis; even when facing a Level One God and a God King, this dynasty still stands tall and unyielding.

This has greatly increased the centripetal force of the dynasty's people.

The scene during the day, with dark clouds obscuring the sun and the scent of blood filling the sky, had terrified many, but now every household is hanging lanterns and decorating, celebrating their survival and rebirth after the catastrophe.

While everyone was immersed in joy, only one person returned alone to the Spirit Hall and entered a dark underground secret chamber.

It was none other than Qian Renxue; she brought Bibi Dong back to the place of her nightmares from years ago.

Bibi Dong's heart had already turned to ash, and she didn't care how Qian Renxue tormented her or if she killed her, but upon seeing this secret chamber, she immediately lost her composure, for this was the very place where Qian Xunji had forced himself upon her all those years ago.

"Qian Renxue, why did you bring me here? I don't want to be here, get out, take me out of here quickly!"

Qian Renxue seemed not to hear her words and walked silently to the center of the secret chamber, where a massive cage stood. She placed the heavily injured Bibi Dong onto the luxurious bed in the center of the cage and used the Angel God's Godly Power to help heal her injuries.

Although she would not restore Bibi Dong's cultivation, nor could she allow her to become a god again, healing her external wounds was not difficult for Qian Renxue, given her current God King-level power.

Bibi Dong was unable to move at this moment. Qian Renxue looked at her with a complex expression and said, "Mother, I know everything about what happened back then. Before Grandfather passed away, he told me everything."

"Then why did you bring me here? To deliberately torture me? Ha, Qian Renxue, you are truly cruel. You are worthy of being the daughter of that beast; not only do you want to damage my body, but you also want to destroy my soul, don't you?" Bibi Dong was both anxious and filled with Anger. "Take me out! I don't want to stay here anymore, take me out!!!!"

Qian Renxue shook her head. "Mother, regarding what happened back then, you were at fault, and my father was at fault too. But no matter what faults my father had, he was already killed by your own hands; there is no meaning in explaining right from wrong anymore. However, what about your own faults, Mother? Whether it was indulging the dregs of the Spirit Hall to persecute the people all these years, or desecrating the dead after becoming a god, and launching a war against a continent that had returned to peace, you should also pay a price. Daughter knows that this is the place of your inner demons, but I believe the best way to break through inner demons is to face them directly."

"From now on, you will live here. Firstly, to atone for your previous actions, and secondly, to strive to overcome the psychological shadow that the events of that year have left on you. I sincerely hope you can return to the pure appearance you had during your time as the Spirit Hall Saintess. Although I never saw it, when I heard my grandfather mention it, I could imagine how beautiful, lovely, and kind you were then. I really want to see that Bibi Dong. When that time comes, we mother and daughter can get to know each other again. From now on, I will also come here often to keep you company!" After saying this, Qian Renxue stood up and left the secret chamber.

Inside the secret chamber, Bibi Dong's cries could still be faintly heard.

"I don't want to stay here, let me out, do you hear me, you bastard Qian Renxue... please, let me out, I beg you..."

From angry cursing to wailing, and then to begging.

It was the first time seeing Bibi Dong in such a weak state. Perhaps it was because returning to the place that caused her collapse had triggered her psychological trauma, coupled with the fact that she was truly weak now—her God Position burned, her martial soul shattered, and her soul power crippled—the current Bibi Dong was more fragile than an ordinary young girl.

Qian Renxue clenched her fists, forcing herself to harden her heart.

Bibi Dong's temperament was simply too extreme; to treat her, one had to use strong medicine.

She flew up and left the Spirit Hall. With her current God King-level Speed, it took less than a few minutes to return from the Spirit Hall to the Gu Lei Imperial City.

Unlike the Spirit Hall, which was filled with Bibi Dong's Roar, when Qian Renxue arrived home, she found the Gu Lei Imperial Palace filled with laughter and joy, which infected her mood and made her feel much better instantly.

Because after today, at least on this Douluo Continent, the Gu Lei Dynasty no longer had any enemies.

This continent, which had been divided for thousands of years, could now look forward to a long period of peace.

Although things long divided must unite and things long united must divide, before that happens, let everyone enjoy a stable life to the fullest.

Nan Tianchen did not actually have the idea of Qin Shi Huang that a country would never fall and would be passed down for ten thousand generations; he was someone who believed that children and grandchildren would have their own fortunes.

The broad road to the future had already been paved by their generation for their descendants; whether they would walk it in the future and how they would walk it was their own business.

Everything follows fate; perhaps with the development of Spirit Tools and people's lives getting better and better, the country might really stand for eternity.

Now, when Nan Tianchen was finished with government affairs, his favorite thing to do was to tease his grandchildren.

Especially after the great battle ended, Feihuang and Nan Tianchen's first thought was to go see the two babies; with such heavy killing intent on the battlefield today, they didn't know if they had been frightened. In the crib, the two little cuties stared with wide eyes at the crowd of adults with doting faces surrounding their bed.

In fact, they had indeed been frightened into crying several times during the day, but perhaps because they were naturally intelligent, they had not cried once since Qian Renxue and Lv Lingqi descended. Perhaps they knew that these two mothers would also protect them.

"Little brother, little brother, look quickly, Rui'er is blowing bubbles." Nan Feiling pointed at Nan Fengrui in surprise, watching him blow little bubbles with his mouth, looking extremely cute.

Feihuang smiled and picked him up, patiently wiping his drool with his sleeve.

Perhaps seeing that her father was holding her brother and not her, the daughter Nan Fengyue pursed her little mouth, wearing a wronged expression, and tears quickly began to well up in her eyes.

Then came a heart-wrenching wail.

It was unknown who she inherited this super jealous personality from.

Nan Tianchen hurriedly picked up his granddaughter. "There, there, your father is holding your brother, so how about Grandpa holds you?"

"Mm-ah... mm-ah..."

It seemed it was no use for Grandpa to hold her; she cried even harder.

"You, let me take her!" Lan Xue helplessly took the little granddaughter. Sure enough, once she was in her arms, the little baby's crying stopped abruptly.

Lan Xue glanced triumphantly at Nan Tianchen, leaving Nan Tianchen feeling a sense of unwillingness. These two little ones were too picky; apart from Nan Feihuang and Lan Xue, only their mother Xue Ke could hold them, and no one else could. His overflowing grandfatherly affection had nowhere to vent.

"Um... can we try holding them?" Qian Renxue and Lv Lingqi suddenly said.

They had both wanted to give birth to the eldest son for Feihuang, but due to the inheritance of the God Position, Xue Ke had taken the opportunity.

However, they didn't actually care that much about this point. Even if the eldest son could inherit the head of the dynasty, so what? They were all gods now; how could they care about worldly power?

"Of course you can." Lan Xue handed Nan Fengyue, who was in her arms, to Lingqi nearby. The affinity of a god was indeed very strong; even Nan Fengyue, who was the pickiest, stayed obediently in Lingqi's arms and even looked curiously at this other mother with her big eyes.

Qian Renxue wanted to take Nan Fengrui from Feihuang's arms, but seeing Xue Ke beside him, she hesitated.

Xue Ke also looked at Qian Renxue with a complex expression; she both hated and loved Qian Renxue.

She hated her for deceiving her for so many years, and her father had also died because of her; she loved her for the meticulous care she had shown her since she was a child. Xue Qinghe would always be a ray of light in Xue Ke's heart that could never be erased.

"Ke'er... is it okay?" Qian Renxue asked hopefully.

Xue Ke was silent for a long while before turning her head and acting haughty. "I suppose it's barely okay!"

Qian Renxue smiled slightly. "Thank you!"

Xue Ke had somewhat come to terms with it. She loved her big brother from back then too much; if Xue Qinghe had never been exposed, the status of this older brother in her heart would likely have been on par with Feihuang and her son and daughter.

Therefore, even now, she could not completely hate her. Since that was the case, let everything be resolved.

When she saw Qian Renxue carefully take Nan Fengrui from Feihuang's arms and reveal a smile of genuine affection, she sighed with relief.

Sure enough, hating someone you originally loved was very exhausting. The moment she let go, she felt completely at ease.

Seeing this, Feihuang smiled knowingly; it seemed his family could truly be harmonious.
