Douluo Continent: The Phoenix God Returns

Chapter 67: My true colors were seen through

early morning.

When Ye Li regained consciousness, he saw Gu Yuena tightly hugging him. At this moment, they were naked and completely exposed to each other. Ye Li gently moved Gu Yuena's hand away, put on his clothes, and prepared to get out of bed and leave. Turning around to look at Gu Yuena, Ye Li kissed her forehead.

"Looks like you're really exhausted. You're comfortable, but this little phoenix is ​​suffering." With that, Ye Li flashed out of the Lake of Life.

After Ye Li left, Gu Yuena sat up, a blush appearing on her usually cold and handsome face. She gently stroked her belly with her right hand; this was the fruit of her and Ye Li's life.

.........

Brigitte had been waiting outside for a long time, and only when she saw Ye Li come out did she slowly walk over to her side.

Looking at Bi Ji's somewhat uncoordinated gait, Ye Li couldn't help but feel ashamed. He put his right hand to his forehead and thought to himself, "There are only oxen that die from exhaustion, not fields that are over-plowed. My two wives are perfectly fine the next day. I really have a lot to say about this."

"My lord, let's go," Biji said softly.

"Cough cough... um, let's go." Ye Li couldn't help but cough when Bi Ji called him "husband," but he still forced himself to break through the space.

Biji went in first, and Ye Li, who was behind her, couldn't see Biji's expression at all. Actually, she shouted that on purpose, just to see how Ye Li would react. Now it seems that the reaction was as expected.

It must be said that mastering spatial elements is indeed convenient. What used to take several days can now be completed in a short time. As soon as Ye Li arrived at Wuhun City, his eyes lit up. The scene was completely different from when he left. Everywhere was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. The magnificent Wuhun City had become exceptionally festive. It was clear that Bibi Dong had put a lot of effort into the wedding of the two of them.

The soldiers of Wuhun City were arranged in two orderly rows, with long red cloths tightly bound to their right arm armor and the halberds in their hands.

Ye Li told Bi Ji to return to the temple first, while he went to Bibi Dong to find out what was going on. Along the way, everyone who saw him nodded respectfully, and he nodded politely in return. He never expected that his fame would be so great in such a short time.

Before long, he arrived at the Papal Palace. The two knights guarding the gate did not dare to stop him. They already knew his identity: the former Holy Maiden and now Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, and the Pope's marriage partner. They then opened the doors of the Papal Palace.

Seeing how sensible they were, Ye Li didn't hold it against them for blocking her outside the hall and walked straight into it. At this moment, Bibi Dong was resting with her eyes closed. There were just too many things to deal with these past few days. At the same time as their wedding, Bibi Dong was also going to announce something: the abdication of the papacy.

Hearing the door open, Bibi Dong slowly opened her eyes and saw Ye Li, whom she had been longing for. She stood up and said slowly, "You're back."

"I'm back, sister," Ye Li said with a smile.

"We're getting married soon, and you're still calling me 'sister'?" Bibi Dong looked at Ye Li with a slightly aggrieved expression.

"Um... women are truly amazing creatures," Ye Li thought to himself, then looked at Bibi Dong and said, "Wife."

"Our wedding is the day after tomorrow, and we've invited everyone we were supposed to. Is there anything else we need to add?" After receiving a satisfactory answer, Bibi Dong's voice returned to its usual aloofness.

"It's already quite a grand affair, and there doesn't seem to be anything else that needs to be added," Ye Li said, scratching his head.

"By the way, Sect Master Ning of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School sent a letter a few days ago, wanting Ning Rongrong to marry your younger brother Li Ye. What do you think?" Bibi Dong suddenly thought of something and said to Ye Li.

"My younger brother has already told me that I will take him to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to propose marriage," Ye Li said, nodding.

"No need for that. I have already formally proposed marriage to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the name of the Spirit Hall," Bibi Dong said.

"My wife is so thoughtful," Ye Li said, sitting next to Bibi Dong.

"Your brother is my brother, and this is what I should do," Bibi Dong said, blushing.

"You've worked hard, this is your reward." Before Bibi Dong could react, Ye Li kissed her lips.

"Ye... Ye Li, we can't do this here. What if someone sees us?" Bibi Dong said.

"So what if you saw it?" Ye Li said, then asked for it again.

Bibi Dong thought about it and realized that Ye Li's words didn't seem to make any mistakes. After all, they were getting married soon, so Bibi Dong simply put aside her usual dignified demeanor and reciprocated Ye Li's kissing gesture.

A few minutes later, a blush appeared on Bibi Dong's originally fair face. Her beautiful eyes gazed affectionately at Ye Li, who was pressing down on her, and she softly said, "Is...is it okay?"

If Bibi Dong doesn't stop him, he'll probably be completely taken advantage of by Ye Li today. Although he doesn't care about that, it's not good for the two of them to get married before they're even married.

"Satisfied." Ye Li grinned, the frustration of being pinned down by Gu Yuena and Bi Ji vanished instantly. Soul beasts are different from humans; they value strength above all else, while humans are the opposite.

"I think you're rewarding yourself, not me," Bibi Dong said, sitting up and straightening her clothes.

"Was it that easy to see through? How about... we go down and rest for a bit?" Ye Li smiled sheepishly at Bibi Dong.

"You wish! Your malicious intentions are practically written all over your face. So what if you're being pinned down by them? Do you really need to seek validation from me?" Bibi Dong said angrily.

"Clang—My lifelong reputation is gone just like that." Ye Li's heart suddenly shattered. She thought she had hidden it well, but Bibi Dong saw through it immediately. How could she face people in the future? She would never be able to hold her head up in front of them again.

"Alright, alright, go and rest." Bibi Dong waved her hand and said. She was really afraid that if Ye Li stayed any longer, they might just get married tonight. As for after marriage... having Ye Li under her was not a bad idea.

"Oh," Ye Li replied simply and walked out of the Papal Palace.
