Douluo Continent: Ice Phoenix Rebuilds Her Skills and Enrolls in Tianshui Academy

Chapter 99: The father is gone, but the son remains; a secret buried deep inside!

"Now, you are the high and mighty Pope, and I am just a commoner."

"I know I'm not good enough for you, and you look down on me. I never thought of trying to climb the social ladder. But why do you show no regard for our past relationship and arrest my students and colleagues?"

"Bibi Dong, if you want my life, then take it!"

After saying that, Yu Xiaogang stretched his neck.

He appeared to be ready to sacrifice himself, disregarding life and death.

It seemed they were ready to offer their necks for execution, sacrificing their lives for righteousness.

Seeing this, Bibi Dong felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

"Xiao Gang, I didn't mean to target you."

"But right now I'm tracking down Tang Hao, and your Shrek Academy has a close relationship with Tang Hao. That guy named Tang San, if I'm not mistaken, should be Tang Hao's son..."

Yu Xiaogang's pupils suddenly contracted.

Tang San is the best material for Yu Xiaogang to prove himself.

We absolutely cannot let the Spirit Hall capture us!

"Nonsense! Xiao San is just an ordinary country boy, and even his martial soul is the most common Blue Silver Grass. How can you say he's Tang Hao's son!"

"If Tang San is truly Tang Hao's son, then his martial soul should be the Clear Sky Hammer!"

Yu Xiaogang was outwardly fierce but inwardly weak.

They tried their best to conceal the father-son relationship between Tang San and Tang Hao.

But Bibi Dong just chuckled lightly.

"Tang San's father's spirit is the Clear Sky Hammer, but who says he necessarily inherited his father's spirit? Xiao Gang, I know more about this than you do. You can't fool me."

Yu Xiaogang said angrily:

"Bibi Dong! Xiao San is just a child!"

"Has becoming Pope turned your heart cruel? Why involve children in adult matters!"

Bibi Dong looked at Yu Xiaogang.

The indifference in his eyes sent a shiver down his spine.

"Xiaogang, what you're saying seems a bit too naive."

"It seems our meeting today will have to end here."

"For your sake, I won't implicate anyone from Shrek Academy besides Tang San."

After saying that, Bibi Dong lifted her foot to leave.

"etc!"

Yu Xiaogang called out to Bibi Dong, his voice trembling.

"Dong'er!"

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong stopped in her tracks, her expression complex.

She turned away and said distantly:

"Xiao Gang, the name Dong'er is now history. Please address me as the Pope."

Yu Xiaogang closed his eyes in pain.

"Tang San is truly innocent, Your Holiness the Pope. What will it take for you to let him go?"

"He was my student, and our relationship was as close as father and son!"

"Tang San embodies the culmination of my life's work. If Tang San dies, my life will have lost its value!"

"Please! Dong'er, I beg you!"

Despite Yu Xiaogang's desperate pleas, a hint of reluctance flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes. She lowered her eyelids, her beautiful face shrouded in shadow.

Yu Xiaogang seemed to have grasped a glimmer of hope.

"Dong'er, Tang San is just a teenager, nothing to be afraid of."

"If you spare Tang San, I'm willing to help you find Tang Hao!"

"Leave the father, keep the son..."

When he said the last four words, Yu Xiaogang's tone became very slow.

However, his face was contorted with rage, and he was no longer concerned with anything else.

[The mistress should understand, right? After all, the Spirit Hall was relentlessly pursuing him, and Haotian Douluo was destined to die anyway. I just brought forward this predetermined ending...]

Yes, mistress, I had no ulterior motives; everything I did was for you.

No matter how much Yu Xiaogang tried to comfort himself.

But he still clearly understood:

Once Tang San finds out that I colluded with the Spirit Hall to lure and kill Tang San's biological father, the teacher and student will likely turn against each other instantly, and Tang San may even try to kill me.

Although her purpose in doing so was to protect him.

But Yu Xiaogang, Tang San's teacher, knew better than anyone else the ruthlessness in Tang San's bones.

"Therefore, this matter must be kept a secret from Tang San forever..."

Bibi Dong looked at Yu Xiaogang in surprise.

I felt an indescribable disappointment.

She always thought Yu Xiaogang was a person who adhered to principles. Although he was a talentless and weak man, he had a lot of backbone.

However, what Yu Xiaogang said today changed Bibi Dong's previous impression of him.

Is it really okay to betray one person for the sake of another?

"Okay, I promise."

Bibi Dong pondered for a moment and then agreed.

According to Bibi Dong's understanding, Tang San is currently just a mere Soul Master, yet she is already a level 97 Title Douluo and has completed half of the Rakshasa God Trial.

As long as we can obtain the soul bone from Tang Hao.

I will soon break through level 98.

Perhaps Tang San wouldn't even be a Soul Emperor until she becomes a god.

"As you said, let the father go and the son remain."

Bibi Dong's voice gradually faded until it disappeared completely.

The beauty has left, and Yu Xiaogang is still standing there, stunned.

suddenly.

With a "thump".

Yu Xiaogang knelt on the ground, his face showing a look of pain.

He held his head in his hands, looking towards the place where Bibi Dong had disappeared, his eyes filled with lingering hatred.

They are clearly ex-lovers, so why don't they feel any affection for each other?

It was Bibi Dong who forced him, a dignified gentleman, into becoming a villain!

……

Where exactly is Tang Hao right now?

Tian Dou City.

"Yanyan! Look, look! There's something good here!"

Ye Lingling greeted Dugu Yan with some excitement.

Ye Lingling, who is usually quiet and reserved like a lady, rarely shows such excitement.

Dugu Yan leaned closer, somewhat curious.

Ye Lingling pointed to a painting and asked, "Look who this painting depicts!"

Dugu Yan glanced at it.

The painting depicts a handsome young man, elegant and extraordinary, dressed in pure white robes as white as snow, with a refined and handsome face and a cool and aloof temperament, who is scooping up stream water with his sleeves rolled up.

Just one glance is enough to make your heart flutter.

"Chu Han?!"

Dugu Yan exclaimed, "Who brought Chu Han's painting to sell?"

"Shh-"

A petite woman with gold-rimmed glasses, exuding a sly air, gestured for silence and waved to Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.

She led the two to a secluded spot and whispered:

"This is a painting by Chu Han, a succubus junior from Tianshui Academy."

"They're incredibly rare these days!"

"I risked being hunted down... uh, I took a huge risk to create this scroll. Gentlemen, would you be interested in buying one?"

Dugu Yan exclaimed in surprise, "Buy one volume?"

"How many volumes of this do you have left?"

The girl with the gold-rimmed glasses looked slightly flustered, but quickly calmed down.

"How is that possible!"

"I finally got this; there's only one scroll left!"

"I sold it to you because I didn't have enough funds for my creation. You two are good-looking and don't seem like the kind of girls who would do strange things with the scrolls."

Dugu Yan: "..."

"Excuse me, what's your name?"

"Ah? Me? My name is Liu Ruyue."
