Douluo: Qian Renxue’s Road to Defeating the Gods

Chapter 540. Education
Qian Renxue's heart was beating violently, and she couldn't even look directly at Bibi Dong's sharp eyes. She immediately lowered her head, "Mom..."

"Who taught you that you can enter the Pope's Palace where the meeting is going on without notifying others? You don't even have to knock on the door. Don't you know the most basic courtesy? Get out!" Bibi Dong's voice drowned out Qian Renxue who was about to speak. Moreover, this angry voice did not sound fake. Even Hu Liena and Yan below looked at Bibi Dong in shock. They could not believe what was happening before their eyes.

"Yes..." Qian Renxue's body trembled after hearing Bibi Dong's roar, her eyes slightly red, and she slowly walked to the gate of the Pope's Palace and looked back before leaving, but Bibi Dong's eyes remained unchanged, still so stern, without the tenderness and love of the past.

Qian Renxue bit her lip lightly, stepped out of the Pope's Palace and closed the door. Then she sorted out her emotions again and gently knocked on the door of the Pope's Palace.

"Continue to report." After Qian Renxue left, Bibi Dong's face finally showed a little fluctuation, which was a little bit of pain and reluctance. Bibi Dong was struggling in her heart, but she was undoubtedly harming her by indulging Qian Renxue. She must grow up, otherwise how can she shoulder this burden in the future.

"Teacher, Yan and I have finished our report." Hu Liena hesitated for a while and said in a low voice: "Teacher, Sister Xue is still outside..."

"Let her stay outside. Doesn't she like staying outside?"

Hu Liena pinched her fingers nervously. She had never thought that the teacher would be so angry. From what she knew, Sister Xue had disappeared for a long time. This was not the way they met, right? Maybe she should help to ease the relationship between them.

"I know that what I said was just an angry remark. I miss Sister Xue in my heart. Isn't your anger a proof that you are worried about her and feel sorry for her? Besides, Sister Xue must have her own reasons for not returning to the Spirit Hall. Maybe she has gained a lot from returning this time... Hmm... Why don't you talk to her?"

"Yes, yes." Yan on the side also nodded frantically, echoing Hu Liena's words.

Bibi Dong sighed slightly and asked Hu Liena to call Qian Renxue in.

As the heavy door opened again, Hu Liena and Yan came out of the Pope's Palace.

"Sister Xue, please go in quickly. The teacher is still waiting for you inside. However, the fact that the teacher is so angry is actually proof that she cares about you and loves you. No one else can make the teacher have any emotional fluctuations, only you can."

Qian Renxue actually heard what Hu Liena said inside. It seemed that Bibi Dong wanted her to hear it on purpose. Qian Renxue also looked at Hu Liena with gratitude: "Thank you."

"Okay, go in now! Don't make the teacher angry again."

Hu Liena watched Qian Renxue enter the Pope's Palace and close the heavy door, but this time, no sound could be heard at all.

Qian Renxue walked to the center of the hall and looked up at Bibi Dong. Although Bibi Dong's expression was still fierce, she looked a little more tired than before. That was the true expression from her heart and it could not be faked.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I disappointed you..."

Bibi Dong looked at her daughter who was deeply blaming herself. She wanted to hold her in her arms and soothe her pain and sadness with her love, but she couldn't. She had to make Qian Renxue realize that she was wrong, otherwise she would keep making the same mistake again and again. "Tell me, what have you gained during this period of time?"

Qian Renxue recounted her experiences during this period. She traveled to most of the Xing Luo Empire and deeply felt the suffering, poverty, disease and sin that the people in this world were going through. Then she talked about the improvements that the Spirit Hall reforms had brought to the country, and finally the trip to Longxing City and meeting Tang San and making a bet.

Bibi Dong didn't show much expression when she heard about Qian Renxue's experience, but her expression changed slightly when she heard about her meeting Tang San. When she heard about her ridiculous bet with Tang San, her face was full of anger.

"So, you've been out for so long, not only did you fail to control your murderous aura, but you also made such a ridiculous bet. Qian Renxue, kneel down!"

Bibi Dong slammed the table and stood up immediately, while Qian Renxue was also hit by a gust of wind and knocked to the ground, with a trace of blood even oozing from the corner of her mouth.

"Who is Tang San? Not only has he lived two lives, he also has insights that we have never seen before. Even I am afraid of his cunning and scheming. And you, not only did you meet him, but you also made a ridiculous bet with him. You have been fooled and you don't even know it!"

Bibi Dong felt a little disappointed. Even though Qian Renxue was sitting on the ground with a desolate look, Bibi Dong didn't seem to feel bad at all: "I thought you would grow up during this time away, but what about you? Look at you. What burden can you take on? What can you share with me?"

"I'm sorry, but I'm also doing this so that the people of this continent don't suffer from war..."

"If you really want to serve the people of this continent, you should use your absolute strength to destroy your enemies. This way, you can save them from bloodshed and sacrifice. Do you know how much Tang San's Tang Sect can do in a year? How many hidden weapons can it produce? How many elite soldiers can the Heaven Dou Empire train? Do you know? You don't understand at all!"

Bibi Dong took a deep breath and continued, "I thought you could take over the position of the Pope, reform the Spirit Hall and lead this continent to a bright future, but you left without even saying hello. You simply abandoned the Spirit Hall and the people of the entire Douluo Continent. You don't understand what responsibility is!"

"...responsibility..." Qian Renxue slowly got up from the ground, saying the word responsibility in a trance. At this moment she also came to her senses. Yes, responsibility. She wanted to make this continent a better place, but when the reform was about to be carried out, he suddenly left. Isn't this irresponsible?
What is responsibility? Qian Renxue looked at her mother. Even though she was taller than her mother and her shoulders were broader than her mother's, they still couldn't hold up the sky that she held up.

Bibi Dong had to scold Qian Renxue to wake her up and let her know that there were some things she had to bear.

"Do you know why I haven't ascended the throne yet?"

"Why..."

"Do you think the word empress is just a title? When I sit in that position, I must first be responsible for the entire country. Their food, clothing, housing, transportation, and personal safety are all directly related to my direct responsibility. At that time, I will be the empress first, and your mother second."

Qian Renxue stared at Bibi Dong in a daze, her head gradually drooping...
