Douluo Continent: The Evil Tiger Subdues the Eight Desolations, and Marries Zhu Zhuqing

"Therefore, as long as you join the Spirit Hall, you can not only become this Pope's personal disciple,..."

"You can also obtain a ten-thousand-year-old head soul bone."

The moment the last six words were uttered, Yue Guan's expression changed drastically.

He subconsciously turned to look at Bibi Dong, whose usually narcissistic and lazy eyes were now filled with disbelief.

A direct disciple?

Ten thousand years old head bone?

Yue Guan understood better than anyone what it meant to be His Holiness the Pope's personal disciple!

That means the core resources of the entire Spirit Hall will be tilted toward this person, and it means that the highest authority of the Spirit Hall will personally pave the way for him!

And the ten-thousand-year-old head bone...

That's something countless Soul Masters could never obtain in their entire lives!

Then Yue Guan secretly glanced at the ghost beside him.

The ghost's reaction was just as unbelievable as his.

Upon hearing Bibi Dong's terms, Lin Ye took a deep breath.

Personal disciple.

Ten thousand years of head and soul bones.

Any one of these conditions is priceless!

He knew very well that this was almost the highest level of terms Bibi Dong could offer.

Based on his memory of the original work, Bibi Dong's only direct disciple was Hu Liena.

And now, that spot is open to him as well.

Joining the Spirit Hall means that he will have a powerful backer on this continent that no one dares to provoke.

At the same time, cultivation resources, soul beast hunting grounds, and all kinds of classic texts are readily available.

More importantly, the closer he is to Bibi Dong, the more he can grasp the Spirit Hall's layout and movements in advance.

Taking the initiative is always far more valuable than passively waiting.

No matter how you look at it, this is a win-win situation.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Holiness the Pope."

Lin Ye raised his head slightly, his gaze steady as he looked directly into those purple eyes.

"Lin Ye is willing to join the Spirit Hall and become your personal disciple."

"only……"

He suddenly stopped halfway through his sentence.

"Just what?"

Bibi Dong frowned slightly.

However, Lin Ye did not continue to answer.

He slowly turned his head and looked at Zhu Zhuqing, who was tightly clutching his clothes from behind.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing's face was pale and her expression was complicated.

She heard the entire conversation.

The Pope of the Spirit Hall personally recruited him, offering an exorbitant price.

Lin Ye is going to join the Spirit Hall.

He is about to become the Pope's disciple.

He's going to the Spirit Hall.

And...and what about her?

Zhu Zhuqing felt a pang of sadness.

From the moment he rescued her by the pool in the Star Dou Great Forest, to fighting together, eating candied hawthorns together, strolling through the snack street together, and fighting side by side in the Soul Arena...

Over the years, she had unconsciously grown accustomed to having Lin Ye by her side.

Used to his teasing,

Accustomed to his protectiveness,

I'm used to him calling me "Big Kitty".

If Lin Ye went to the Spirit Hall...

So what will she do all by herself?

Where to go? Go back to the Star Luo Empire and wait to be killed by my sister?

Or will you wander alone?

Zhu Zhuqing lowered her head, her hair obscuring her reddened eyes.

She desperately told herself not to cry, not to cry in this situation.

But the fear and reluctance of being abandoned instantly surged into my heart.

Looking at her, Lin Ye reached out and took her somewhat cold hand.

Zhu Zhuqing was startled and suddenly looked up.

Lin Ye didn't look at her, but turned to Bibi Dong and said calmly:

"Your Holiness, Lin Ye has a request..."

Lin Ye didn't finish speaking; instead, he looked at Zhu Zhuqing again.

Bibi Dong followed his gaze to Zhu Zhuqing, her purple eyes flickering slightly.

Then, she suddenly let out a cold laugh.

Bibi Dong, being a pope who had seen countless people, naturally saw through Lin Ye's thoughts at a glance.

"Lin Ye, your girlfriend is quite talented too."

Bibi Dong casually said:

"The Netherworld Cat Martial Soul, a level 36 Soul Master, and a rare life-saving Soul Skill. Among his peers, he is considered outstanding."

"Why don't I join the Spirit Hall with you?"

After Bibi Dong finished speaking, Zhu Zhuqing was completely stunned.

What?

She actually managed to join the Spirit Hall?

A tremendous joy exploded from the bottom of her heart, making her eyes sting and her nose tingle.

Joining the Spirit Hall not only means she will be able to completely escape her sister's pursuit, but also... and she and Lin Ye will no longer have to be separated.

But then, another word suddenly popped into her mind.

girlfriend?

Did His Holiness the Pope just say "your girlfriend"?

Zhu Zhuqing's face flushed red instantly.

Her cheeks turned red all the way to her ears, and from her ears to her neck.

She subconsciously tried to pull her hand away from Lin Ye's grasp, but Lin Ye held it so tightly and naturally that she couldn't pull it away at all.

"No, no, Your Holiness, he...we...we're not in that kind of relationship yet..."

Zhu Zhuqing stammered as she spoke.

Bibi Dong glanced at their intertwined hands but said nothing.

At this moment, Chrysanthemum Douluo was seen suppressing a laugh, while Ghostly Demon turned his head away expressionlessly.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Holiness the Pope," Lin Ye said.

Zhu Zhuqing: "..."

You big bad guy, why don't you explain yourself? You're not even denying it?

Bibi Dong did not dwell on this topic for long afterward.

She put the scepter to her side, and her tone returned to the indifference of someone in a superior position.

"You two go home and tidy up tonight."

"Someone will come to pick you up and take you to Wuhun City tomorrow at noon."

After saying that, Bibi Dong turned around.

The purple cloak fluttered gently in the night breeze, and Yue Guan and Gui Mei immediately followed.

The three figures gradually faded in the moonlight and eventually disappeared into the night, as if they had never existed.

After the three left, the street returned to its quiet state.

Lin Ye put away his martial spirit and let out a long breath.

Having just faced three Title Douluo-level figures, his back was already soaked with cold sweat, but he hadn't shown it.

"Big kitty, let's go."

He looked down at Zhu Zhuqing, who was still in a daze, and smiled slightly.

"Let's go back to the hotel first."

Zhu Zhuqing was still reeling from the shock she had just experienced.

Her hand was still being held by Lin Ye, and the warmth of his palm made her feel at ease.

She did not break free.

I don't want to break free.

The two walked slowly down the quiet street, hand in hand.

After returning to the Tianshui Hotel, Lin Ye sat down at the table and took out paper and pen from his treasure pouch.

Dugu Bo is still outside and hasn't returned, but Dugu Yan is in Tiandou City.

He had to make things clear before he left.

As the pen touched the paper, Lin Ye carefully considered his words.

Dugu Yan:

It is as if we have met in person. Due to unforeseen circumstances, Zhu Qing and I will be leaving Tiandou City tomorrow for Wuhun City.

I will never forget the monthly detoxification; you can come directly to Wuhun City to find me then.

Also, please tell Senior Dugu not to worry.

—Lin Ye

After writing, he folded the letter and sealed it in an envelope.

Meanwhile, he had placed the invitation from the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy under the envelope, intending to have it delivered together with someone the next morning.

After finishing these tasks, Lin Ye leaned back in his chair and began to close his eyes and ponder.

Joining the Spirit Hall would be more beneficial than harmful.

Bibi Dong is extremely ambitious, but she always protects her own people.

With the protection and resources of the Spirit Hall, his and Zhu Zhuqing's strength will definitely improve rapidly!

He was already looking forward to life in the Spirit Hall.
