Douluo Continent: The True Body and Blood Soul, Starting from Blacksmithing

Following the sound of laughter, Liu Erlong saw a woman dressed in a gorgeous light purple dress.

Their every gesture revealed an inherent nobility and arrogance.

Finally, and crucially, he never sensed the other person's presence throughout the entire process.

One can imagine how terrifying the opponent's strength is.

Although she didn't know the other person, Liu Erlong felt an inexplicable hostility towards him the moment she saw him.

"Who are you?"

When questioned about her identity by Liu Erlong, a hint of doubt flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes, but that doubt quickly turned into a teasing remark.

"Xiao Gang didn't even tell you who I am, so it seems you don't hold a very high place in his heart."

As soon as these sarcastic words were uttered, Liu Erlong confirmed the other party's identity.

"Bibi Dong?!"

Seeing that the other party wasn't too stupid, Bibi Dong nodded with a playful expression.

Having confirmed the other party's identity, Liu Erlong's expression grew even more somber.

Being drugged by her disciple due to carelessness has already robbed her of any chance of ever holding her head high again, but to make matters worse, her lover's ex-girlfriend witnessed it!

At this moment, Liu Erlong's desire to kill Lin Yu reached its peak.

However, Bibi Dong actually moved closer to the disciple she had kicked away.

Seeing Bibi Dong pull her disciple out of the tent and shower her with concern, Liu Erlong's killing intent reached its peak.

"Xiaoyu, come here!"

However, Lin Yu did not come over. Instead, she shrank behind Bibi Dong, staring at her with dark circles under her eyes and a look of fear on her face.

Seeing that his disciple dared to disobey his orders, Liu Erlong was furious.

"You brat, I'm your teacher! Now you dare disobey my orders?!"

As she spoke, Liu Erlong had already completed the Martial Soul Possession and was preparing to activate her seventh Soul Skill and unleash her Martial Soul True Form.

He might not win if he fought Bibi Dong to the death, but the aftershocks would definitely kill Lin Yu.

The idea was wonderful, but reality was harsh. The seventh spirit ring, which had already lit up, flickered for a moment and then went out.

Failing to use the seventh soul skill is not simply a matter of not being able to unleash the skill.

The seventh soul skill requires the soul master's martial soul to be completely fused with the soul master. If the fusion fails, unbearable pain will spread throughout the entire body.

However, compared to the pain of the failed Martial Soul Fusion, the colic in the lower dantian was even more unbearable for Liu Erlong.

Seeing Liu Erlong's disheveled appearance and her squatting on the ground, Bibi Dong couldn't help but burst into unrestrained laughter.

"Dean Liu, what's wrong with you? You've indulged in too much sex and can't even use your Martial Soul True Body anymore? Tsk tsk tsk, this must be the first time in the Soul Master world, right?"

Seeing Liu Erlong curled up on the ground in pain, Bibi Dong smiled as if she had thought of something.

"Dean Liu, you seem to be all alone now. Notting City isn't far from here. Should I take you there and have Xiao Gang look after you?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong's expression suddenly turned ferocious, and she stared intently at Bibi Dong.

Although she didn't say anything, the soul power flowing wildly within her body had already made her stance clear.

Bibi Dong, standing to the side, seemed to enjoy making things worse.

"Dean Liu, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I need to go and track down a major wanted criminal from the Spirit Hall, so I definitely can't bring you with me."

"I'm leaving soon. It's all out in the middle of nowhere. If something happens to you while you're alone, people will probably say I'm petty and ambushed you in the wilderness."

Liu Erlong initially wanted to remain silent. But seeing Lin Yu, who was hiding behind Bibi Dong, about to step forward, an overwhelming killing intent erupted from him.

"If you dare to step forward, I will kill you!"

Lin Yu paused slightly, but still stepped forward.

"You must be His Holiness the Pope of the Spirit Hall. I apologize for making such a fuss."

Bibi Dong looked at her disciple with great interest, wondering what he was trying to achieve with his behavior.

After apologizing, Lin Yu knelt down on one knee before Bibi Dong.

"Your Holiness, I have a favor to ask."

Although Liu Erlong, who was curled up on the ground in the distance, did not know what Lin Yu was trying to do, she was still instinctively displeased to see him yielding to the current Pope.

"You brat, if you dare to give in to this woman, I'll kill you!"

Lin Yu remained unmoved by Liu Erlong's roar. Only when Bibi Dong gestured for him to state his request did Lin Yu speak.

"I beg Your Holiness to keep today's events a secret for my master and me."

Hearing this request, Bibi Dong sneered: "Kid, you seem to have a poor grasp of the situation. In the current circumstances, if you don't want to acknowledge Liu Erlong as your master and are willing to switch to my name, I might agree."

"But I never expected you'd ask me to keep your secret? You dared to drug your master, and you're afraid someone will find out about your little affair?"

"Although I'm very disappointed in you, I'm willing to give you another chance. Do you want to switch allegiance to me, or continue to plead your case to preserve your innocence?"

Bibi Dong felt that she had made her hints clear enough: You can take this opportunity to get rid of your undercover identity and return to the Spirit Hall to become my disciple.

But Lin Yu's next words made Bibi Dong laugh in anger.

"Your Holiness, I am only eleven years old. I believe that my innocence is more important."

Bibi Dong chuckled, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

What she wanted was to ruin Liu Erlong's reputation, so how could she give up on passing on this intelligence just because of Lin Yu's words?

Since you don't appreciate my help, then you can continue your undercover work.

I'd like to see how you deal with your short-tempered teacher.

Bibi Dong left without leaving any promises.

In the vast and silent wilderness, only Lin Yu and Liu Erlong remained in an instant.

Neither of them is in good condition right now.

Liu Erlong is suffering from the backlash of her failed martial soul true form activation due to the excruciating pain in her lower dantian.

Lin Yu landed a solid blow on Liu Erlong's kick. It was only because Liu Erlong's posture was wrong and he couldn't exert any force that Lin Yu was able to stand up.

But now Lin Yu can only stand up.

Ignoring Liu Erlong, who was staring at him with murderous intent, Lin Yu searched around and finally found Liu Erlong's storage soul tool.

After placing Liu Erlong's soul tool next to her, Lin Yu sat down by the fire where they had cooked the night before.

Since Liu Erlong doesn't have the ability to kill him right now, he should cook something to fill his stomach first.

He understood the implication of Bibi Dong's suggestion: she wanted him to return to the Spirit Hall.

But returning to the Spirit Hall now would mean giving up the network of relationships he had painstakingly built up over the past five years in Heaven Dou City.

Now in Tiandou City, he has money, iron mines, connections, and many people who are on good terms with him.

If I go back to the Spirit Hall now, am I going to have to rebuild my network of relationships all over again?

Even if he were willing to run the business himself, now that he's back in the Spirit Hall, his identity would be that of an ordinary undercover agent who failed his mission and had to be rescued by the Pope.

Who would recognize his status as a disciple of the Pope back then? And what real power could he possibly have?

As for the possibility of dying if you stay?

Even when I was far away from the Spirit Hall, this woman's mission had already tricked me like this. Who knows what kind of trouble I'll be in when I get back to the Spirit Hall?
