Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Black Dragon, I am the Lord of the Gods

Chapter 137 Calm down
……

As the nine-tailed celestial fox disappeared, the ice and snow in the palace gradually melted away.

Ice crystals turned into water droplets, slowly dripping down the ornate carvings and gathering into small puddles on the ground.

After calming down, Bibi Dong and the Ice Dragon King were immediately plunged into an eerie atmosphere.

"And who are you?" Bibi Dong looked at the Ice Dragon King warily.

Why does this aura seem so familiar to her?

"I..." The Ice Dragon King was somewhat embarrassed and guilty.

Admit that she was the one who attacked in the Star Dou Great Forest back then?
Even if it means a fight!

Denying everything?

But the woman seemed to have already recognized her...

Just as the Ice Dragon King was at a loss for what to do, and Bibi Dong was about to make her move, the unconscious Xuanming stirred, breaking the tense atmosphere.

Xuanming slowly opened his eyes, feeling the emptiness in his body. He tried to sit up, but his weakness almost caused him to fall back onto the bed.

"Don't move." The illusory figure of the Ice Dragon King floated in front of Xuanming and stopped him.

You need to rest.

Forcibly using the Blood Spear and also forcibly devouring the Human-Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring that was used to nourish other Soul Rings caused a great backlash to Xuanming's body!

Soul power depleted, vital energy and blood depleted!

His body is now, without exaggeration, just an empty shell!

Even with its powerful regenerative abilities, the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone couldn't restore a body that was so severely overdrawn!
“You…” Xuanming frowned, about to ask something, when he suddenly saw Bibi Dong standing to the side, and the messy room.

Almost instantly, Xuanming's body tensed up.

"Don't be nervous, I didn't fight with her," the Ice Dragon King quickly said.

"You fainted, and she brought you back."

Seeing that Xuanming and the icy phantom seemed to have a close relationship, Bibi Dong temporarily set aside her hostility and stepped forward, "Xuanming..."

Xuanming looked at Bibi Dong, "Your Holiness, may I leave now?"

“Xuanming, this really was an accident.” Bibi Dong’s expression was complicated, and she didn’t know how to explain.

“I know you’ve mistaken me for someone else,” Xuanming said.

“It’s not what you think, I…” Bibi Dong opened her mouth, but found it difficult to speak.

Xuanming frowned. "Now, may I leave?"

“No, you’re in a bad state right now, you can’t move around,” Bibi Dong said seriously.

“I know my own body, Your Holiness the Pope need not trouble yourself,” Xuanming said.

Bibi Dong frowned slightly, "Now is not the time to throw a tantrum, you..."

"Your Majesty the Pope!"

Yue Guan's voice rang out outside the palace, and several powerful auras rapidly approached.

"Don't move around," Bibi Dong instructed, then quickly put on her outer robe and headed out of the palace.

Xuanming looked at the Ice Dragon King, "What's going on?"

"She was captivated by that nine-tailed fox, Xinlian..."

“I’m talking to you,” Xuanming interrupted.

"Do you think I'd just stand by and watch you fight her?" the Ice Dragon King said.

"Besides, I have an old grudge against her. If I show myself, given her current strength, we won't be able to escape either..."

“Wait a minute, I’m asking you why you came out,” Xuanming said.

He was indeed acting impulsively before, and the Ice Dragon King was right to stop him and prevent things from getting worse.

But now, the Ice Dragon King has appeared before Bibi Dong. What's going on?
"Just now, something unexpected happened..." After thinking for a moment, the Ice Dragon King explained to Xuanming what had happened with the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox.

Of course, some parts will definitely have to be cut.

……

Outside the sleeping quarters, several Soul Douluo bishops, led by Yue Guan Gui Mei, along with two titled Douluo elders from the Elder Hall, arrived.

"Your Holiness, are you... alright?" Yue Guan asked anxiously. If anything were to happen to Bibi Dong, Golden Crocodile Douluo would surely seize power, and his good days would be over!

"It's nothing. I just made a slight mistake during my cultivation and disturbed everyone," Bibi Dong said.

"A mistake occurred during cultivation?" Demon Bear Douluo frowned deeply.

"Then why did the chill suddenly appear?"

Bibi Dong's two martial souls are both top-tier Spider Emperor martial souls, and neither of them possesses ice attribute abilities.

The burst of cold energy that just now, although its energy fluctuations were not large, was of a very high level!
Even the Elders' Hall sensed it!
"I obtained a treasure, and its energy simply dissipated during the refining process just now," Bibi Dong said calmly.

Demon Bear Douluo was somewhat suspicious, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions. "It's good that the Pope is alright. We'll take our leave now."

After saying that, Demon Bear Douluo and Ghost Leopard Douluo turned and left quickly.

After a moment's hesitation, Yue Guan and Gui Mei led several Soul Douluo bishops away.

"Old ghost, that chill seems familiar," Yue Guan said.

"Don't let it seem familiar," Ghost said in a deep voice.

This is the same icy power that injured them in the Star Dou Great Forest back then!

"What's going on?" Yue Guan asked, puzzled.

"Could it be that that person sneaked into the Papal Palace without anyone noticing and even attacked the Pope?"

"It shouldn't be. With the Pope's power, if he really made a move, it would definitely be much more than that," Ghost said.

"Moreover, not long ago, Xuanming and the Pope left Wuhun City, and not long after, the Pope brought them back. Judging from their appearance, they most likely had a fight and even came to blows."

"Arguing? And even fighting?" Yue Guan was stunned.

How could the two of them be together?

Bibi Dong always treated Xuanming like a child, just like Hu Liena. Moreover, due to Xuanming's special identity, Bibi Dong was particularly tolerant of him. Even if they really quarreled, Bibi Dong would not stoop to Xuanming's level, let alone fight with him.

"How would I know? Go ask him yourself if you dare," Ghost said speechlessly.

Yue Guan thought for a moment, "Could it be because of that kid from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan again?"

There are few things that could cause Bibi Dong's emotions to fluctuate or even lead her to fight with someone.

Xuanming and Hu Liena have a good relationship; it's not because of that girl.

After eliminating those possibilities, only Yu Xiaogang remains.

But that doesn't make sense either!

Xuanming and Yu Xiaogang are two people who have absolutely no connection. Although he gossiped to Xuanming about this matter quite a bit back then, this kid has always been in Tiandou City, and given Xuanming's personality, it's impossible for him to have any interaction with Yu Xiaogang...

……

After seeing off Yue Guan and his group, Bibi Dong quickly returned to her bedchamber, where Xuan Ming had already forcibly gotten out of bed.

But her pale face and swaying body looked completely wrong.

Bibi Dong flashed and instantly appeared beside Xuan Ming, reaching out to help him, but Xuan Ming dodged to the side.

Bibi Dong paused slightly, her outstretched hand freezing in mid-air. A hint of helplessness and tenderness flashed in her eyes as she said softly, "Xuanming, you're in very poor condition right now. Don't push yourself. Rest first and we'll talk about it after you've recovered."

“I know my own body well, Your Holiness the Pope need not worry about it,” Xuanming said.

"I have other matters to attend to in Tiandou City, so I won't disturb you any longer. Farewell."

“Xuanming!” Bibi Dong grabbed Xuanming.

"You can be angry, but can you take care of your health first?"

"How can you go back to Heaven Dou City looking like this?"

Xuanming turned around, looked at his left arm that Bibi Dong was holding, and said in a calm tone, "Your Holiness, may you let go of me?"

Bibi Dong's heart clenched, and her hand trembled slightly, but she did not let go. "You can leave if you want, but we'll talk about it after you recover."

"Your Holiness, it's almost dawn." Xuanming looked into Bibi Dong's eyes.

"Can you let me go?"

"..."
