Douluo Continent: Twin Golden and Silver Dragons Shock Bibi Dong

Looking into the boy's clear yet seemingly nonchalant eyes, Bibi Dong immediately rejected the cruel idea in her heart.

She knew Xuan Hao too well. If she were to truly tear down this facade, using the most rational and cold words to define their relationship, to point out that his feelings were abnormal…

Given Xuan Hao's prideful nature, he would never cry or make a scene, nor would he hysterically argue back.

He would instantly suppress all his surprise and disappointment, then put on a carefree and nonchalant act, laughing it off and saying, "Oh, teacher, what are you thinking? I was just joking to lighten the mood, why did you take it so seriously?"

He can make his disguise flawless, and laugh it off like a real womanizer.

But Bibi Dong knew that the moment he turned away, he would be more heartbroken than anyone else. His already fragile and insecure heart would shatter into nothingness in an instant.

She knows.

Xuan Hao didn't have that much innate strength or domineering nature.

However, he saw through the cruel laws of Douluo Continent earlier than his peers—in this world where the strong prey on the weak, if you are not strong, you will be suppressed by others; if you do not act domineering and fierce, others will treat you as a weak and vulnerable sheep and trample on you at will.

If you don't want to be bullied, and you don't want to lose the warmth you've finally found, the only way is to make yourself look strong enough to instill fear in everyone.

This is why Xuan Hao has liked to cause trouble since he was a child, and why he behaved like a tyrannical bandit and a lawless bully in Wuhun Academy and Tiandou City.

Others only saw his arrogance, but Bibi Dong could see that everything Xuan Hao did was a desperate attempt to cover up his inner emptiness and unease.

He did not "enjoy" those arrogant acts.

On the contrary, when he did those things, he was completely acting, as if he were mechanically completing a task called "pretending to be a strongman".

He felt that it was "right," a necessary means for him to survive and protect those around him.

But in reality, he had absolutely no interest in those scenes of competitiveness and bullying.

He didn't like bullying people at all. In fact, in Bibi Dong's eyes, his heart, which was wrapped in layers of ice, was too kind, or even... weak.

Xuan Hao himself was clearly aware of this problem.

In this cruel world of Soul Masters, kindness and weakness are original sins, fatal flaws.

Therefore, he did his best to cover up his truest self with layers upon layers of arrogance, hostility, and indifference.

She is the successor of the Rakshasa God.

The Rakshasa Goddess governs the deepest evil thoughts, resentments, and darkest desires in the world. As the inheritor of this power, she possesses an extremely keen perception of the wickedness in people's hearts.

However, when she tried to sense Xuan Hao's desires, she discovered that this brat who always said "kill him" and "chop him up" didn't actually have much real malice or malice in his heart.

He was as pure as a blank sheet of paper stained only with self-protective colors.

In fact, on many occasions, when Xuan Hao displayed extreme anger and overwhelming killing intent, Bibi Dong could clearly perceive an extremely contradictory emotion through the divine sense of the Rakshasa God…

His intensely burning anger was often not directed at the outside world, nor at any specific enemy.

He was angry with himself.

He was angry at the weakness hidden deep in his heart, and angry at the fear of losing it even though he tried his best.

Chapter 163 Why can't I think about it?

……

Thinking of this, Bibi Dong sighed silently.

She stood up, walked to sit down next to Xuan Hao, and then stretched out her arms, naturally and gently pulling the boy, who was already half a head taller than her, into her embrace.

"Ok?"

Xuan Hao was visibly startled when he was suddenly hugged. He inhaled the pleasant, elegant fragrance emanating from Bibi Dong and blinked, somewhat bewildered, "Teacher, what's wrong?"

Bibi Dong didn't speak, but simply rested her chin gently on his shoulder and tightened her arms slightly.

Feeling the warm, strong body in her arms, she murmured softly, "It's nothing. It's just that suddenly... I miss the old days."

"I miss the days when you were just a tiny little thing, always following me around like a little tail. Now, in the blink of an eye, you've grown up so much, you're even bigger than me."

Bibi Dong's tone carried a hint of melancholy and tenderness: "If only... you could always be a child, how wonderful that would be?"

Hearing these slightly sentimental words, Xuan Hao looked strange and couldn't help but spoil the mood by making a sarcastic remark:

"Sister, do you want to hear what you're saying? If I really stay that little kid who never grows up, then I'm doomed, okay?"

"Snapped!"

Bibi Dong raised her hand in annoyance and lightly tapped him on the head, saying irritably, "Do you think you're the only one with a mouth? Stop messing around and let me hug you for a while."

After receiving the light but firm blow, Xuan Hao pursed his lips and obediently shut his mouth. He relaxed his body and lay quietly in Bibi Dong's arms, enjoying this rare tranquility and tenderness.

Holding the boy in her arms, Bibi Dong's gaze flickered uncertainly.

After thinking about it, she decided to take it slow.

This deeply ingrained, somewhat distorted emotion cannot be changed overnight. Because in Xuan Hao's mind, his feelings for her and his possessiveness are perfectly justified.

If she were to forcefully deny this "taken-for-granted" idea now and tell Xuan Hao that it was completely wrong, it would undoubtedly be like stabbing him in the heart with a knife, which would be too hurtful.

She could only guide him slowly, like peeling back layers of an onion, to shift his attention to other girls his age.

Thinking of this, Bibi Dong released Xuan Hao, straightened his slightly disheveled collar, and said softly:

"Speaking of which, you're not young anymore."

“I used to think that once you broke through the bottleneck of the Soul Emperor realm, I would officially bring you back to the Spirit Hall and, in front of the whole world, confer upon you the title of Holy Son of the Spirit Hall.”

“But plans can’t keep up with changes. You’re in Heaven Dou City, and you’re carrying the identity of a young master from a reclusive family. You even have to sneak around when you go back to the Spirit Hall, for fear of revealing your whereabouts. The matter of bestowing the title of Holy Son can only be postponed and discussed in a few years.”

At this point, Bibi Dong changed the subject, her gaze falling on Xuan Hao's face:

"However, matters of the heart can wait, but matters of the heart, I don't think I've paid much attention to you in the long run."

"You're surrounded by so many outstanding girls, and I've never had the heart to ask too many questions. After all, as your teacher, I naturally favor your senior, Lena, and I'd be more supportive of you two getting together."

"But I also know in my heart that you are a womanizing scoundrel who attracts all sorts of women, so this matter is not so easy to settle."

Bibi Dong straightened her posture and asked earnestly in the tone of an elder:

"But have you thought about the future?"

"You're both still young now, and dating is all about novelty. You're all clingy and affectionate, so naturally you haven't thought too much about the future. But what about later?"

“When you all come of age, those girls will definitely want a clear title. And people are all human, you will inevitably show favoritism at times. In this situation, you can’t personally handle many of the conflicts in the backyard, you have to let the girls resolve them themselves.”

Bibi Dong looked directly into Xuan Hao's eyes and posed a very real question:

"So, who will be in charge?"

"Or rather, with so many proud and arrogant girls, who can help you keep things in check?"

"Is it Na'er? Or your senior sister Hu Liena?"

Before Xuan Hao could answer, Bibi Dong began her analysis on her own:

"Lena is obedient and devoted to you, but given her personality and methods, I'm afraid she can't control that little dragon, Na'er."

"As for Na'er, although she is still young and seems innocent and naive, she is extremely smart and her mind works faster than anyone else's. Moreover, her talent for cultivation and even her strength are absolutely top-notch."

"Although this may sound somewhat utilitarian and unpleasant, in our world of Soul Masters, what will ultimately determine a person's status in the future is this absolute strength."

"It's the same even at home."

Bibi Dongzheng's analysis was very logical, and he tried to guide Xuan Hao to think about his future "official wife".

However, before she could finish speaking, Xuan Hao cut her off with a single sentence.

"But……"

Xuan Hao looked at Bibi Dong and interrupted her directly:

"Teacher, what you just said about suppressing the backyard and taking charge of the overall situation..."

"Isn't it more suitable for you than Na'er?"

"..."

Bibi Dong's expression suddenly froze.

Her composure and the authority of an elder froze instantly, and her heart skipped a beat.

"no the same!"

Bibi Dong hurriedly avoided Xuan Hao's direct gaze, her voice unconsciously rising an octave: "How can this be the same! How can I get involved in your petty squabbles?"

"Why not?" Xuan Hao frowned slightly.

"Nonsense!"

Bibi Dong took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the panic in her heart, and with a stern face, reprimanded in an unprecedentedly serious tone:

"Xuanhao, wake up!"

“I am your teacher, the older sister who watched you grow up! I can help you without reservation in your cultivation and career, and pave the way for you.”

"But matters of love, marriage, and career are not my concern, and I cannot interfere!"

Bibi Dong stared into Xuan Hao's eyes, speaking slowly and deliberately, as if she were speaking to Xuan Hao, but also warning herself:

"In the future, you will have your own home and a wife who will accompany you for the rest of your life."

"A man who wants to settle down, build a career, and be a pillar of society should have his family and his future in his heart..."

"You can't... and you can't always be thinking about me."

Faced with Bibi Dong's "strict" instruction, which clearly drew a line between them, Xuan Hao did not try to brush it off with a joke as he usually did.

He simply stared at Bibi Dong, his sky-blue eyes seemingly holding a bottomless vortex, stubborn, focused, and with a hint of aggressive heat.

Under his unwavering gaze, Bibi Dong felt a strange pang of guilt. The dignified elder she had painstakingly cultivated instantly crumbled, and she instinctively avoided his gaze, unable to meet his eyes directly.

Just as she turned her head to the side.

"boom--"

A sudden dizziness.

Xuan Hao suddenly sprang into action, his movements incredibly fast. He grabbed Bibi Dong's wrist and shoved her down onto the large, soft velvet sofa. Then, his long, imposing body pressed down on her, trapping her firmly between his arms.

"What are you doing?!"

Bibi Dong's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the handsome face so close to hers, her breathing instantly became erratic.
