In Douluo Continent, he tricked Xiao Wu into giving him a soul ring.

This could be considered the last bit of kindness she had left towards Yu Xiaogang.

Whether Yu Xiaogang lives or dies is none of her concern from now on.

"Yes. I'll take my leave." The head guard replied respectfully, then turned and led the other guards out of the meeting hall.

“Nana, I’m going to give you a task now.” Bibi Dong turned her gaze to Hu Liena beside her.

"Please speak, teacher," Hu Liena said, bowing respectfully.

"Quickly select a group of commoner soul masters who have just graduated from the Spirit Hall Academy, and assign them to various Spirit Halls in the two empires to conduct overt and covert investigations and find out how the local people evaluate each branch hall," Bibi Dong said, her eyes slightly narrowed.

"Teacher, what are you going to do?" Hu Liena asked, her face full of surprise.

Bibi Dong said seriously, "Don't ask about anything else. Just go ahead and pick people. Remember, they must be civilians who are absolutely loyal to the Spirit Hall, and they must be orphans. Only in this way can we ensure the accuracy of the information. Let them investigate boldly. After they find out, don't alert them. I will leave the rest to Elder Ghost and Elder Moon Pass."

"Yes," Hu Liena replied respectfully, then turned and left.

Watching Hu Liena's departing figure, Bibi Dong sighed, pointed to the angel's scepter, stood up, looked up at the ceiling, and murmured, "A-Si, will we ever meet again? This time, I won't be the foolish woman you used to talk about..."

If Bibi Dong's greatest gain from her dream journey was anything, it would undoubtedly be learning modern knowledge. Through everything she accumulated over ten years in the dream, she gained a deep understanding of the flaws in the Spirit Hall's system. Since she no longer intended to destroy the Spirit Hall, reform was essential.

At the same time as Bibi Dong awoke, Lan Si also slowly woke up in the Azure Lotus Space, and what came into view was Bibi Dong in pajamas, transformed from the Azure Lotus.

"You're awake. How did the dream feel?" As soon as I opened my eyes, I heard Bibi Dong's heavenly voice.

"What's this?" Lan Si asked, his face full of confusion. He seemed to have really had a dream, a dream so real it was terrifying. In the dream, he became Bibi Dong, then kicked Yu Xiaogang's bird's nest to pieces, and even ordered his men to lock him up in a death row cell full of gay men.

"You just kicked that guy named Yu Xiaogang's bird's nest to pieces." Bibi Dong in her pajamas snapped her fingers, and the scene on the screen in front of her rapidly rewound. From Yu Xiaogang being kicked to being dragged away by the guards of the Papal Palace, the scene unfolded in one go.

"Is this how you dream?" Lan Si's lips twitched. It felt good, but it wouldn't be so good in the real world. If that crazy woman Bibi Dong found out that he was the one who did it, even with Qian Renxue protecting him, he probably wouldn't survive.

Therefore, this secret must be kept at all costs.

"What about Bibi Dong? I controlled her body back then, so where did she go? Could she have just watched me kick Yu Xiaogang's bird nest to pieces?" Lan Si swallowed hard, feeling relieved that he hadn't blurted out his identity. Otherwise, if that crazy woman, Bibi Dong, found out, things would have been terrible.

Chapter 203 Bibi Dong's Transformation

Bibi Dong in her pajamas shook her head: "Dreaming is relative. If you're dreaming, she's naturally dreaming too."

"That's good." Lan Si breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, "Then she wouldn't have jumped on me too, would she?"

Bibi Dong, dressed in pajamas, said calmly, "That's not necessarily true. But where exactly her consciousness is located? That's unknown, because all my knowledge comes from you. I can only verify it through your understanding."

Lan Si suddenly realized, "Then can I use your dreaming ability at will?" If so, wouldn't that make me invincible? I could take down anyone I wanted, like the Asura God, Tang Ritian, or the Sea God, and cripple them all.

“Of course…” Under Lan Si’s expectant gaze, Bibi Dong in her pajamas narrowed her eyes, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, “No.”

"Uh..." Lan Si's lips twitched, and she said with a pout, "Please, could you please stop talking so dramatically?"

Bibi Dong, dressed in pajamas, calmly explained, "The content of dreams is actually produced by the perception, memory, and storage functions of people's nervous system, containing people's subconscious desires and emotions. It's impossible to fabricate them out of thin air. For example, when you first regained your past life memories, you dreamed of eating a mother-daughter rice bowl and petting a kitten. This is because in your past life you were attracted to kittens and the bodies of that mother and daughter."

"My dream is different; it has to be something that actually happened, and it has to be related to you. To be honest, even I didn't expect your dream to match Bibi Dong. I thought it would be Qian Renxue, Zhu Zhuqing, or even Bi Ye Lingling. It wouldn't consume much of my energy. But it has completely depleted the energy I've accumulated over the past eight years. It seems that outside of Douluo Continent... in some world, or in some time and space, something happened between you and Bibi Dong..."

As the story progressed, Bibi Dong's voice in her pajamas gradually faded, and eventually even her entire figure became blurry, as if a frame had dropped in a movie video from Lan Si's previous life on Earth.

"Looks like you're outside of Douluo Continent? Damn, this is ridiculous! Even if the power's off, you should at least finish what you were saying. How am I supposed to find you next time? And what should I call you? Hey...hey...can you even hear me?"

Before he could finish speaking, Lan Si felt a darkness before his eyes. When he opened them again, he found that his consciousness had returned to his body. It was still the familiar cave, but the difference was that the slender blue silver grass was now staring at him warily.

Furthermore, his own soul power seemed to have soared from level 48 to level 50 with the help of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone, and there seemed to be room for improvement. If he could find a suitable soul ring at this time, his soul power might be able to break through to level 52 directly.

But he wouldn't do that, because he already had a target for his fifth spirit ring: the ten-headed Fiery Sun Serpent at the end of Hell Road in the City of Slaughter.

Before that, he only needed to focus on cultivation, since his soul power would accumulate in his body even without acquiring a soul ring. Besides, he had just broken through to level 48 in public not long ago. If he were to break through to Soul King in less than a month, wouldn't that be blatantly telling everyone that he had absorbed a soul bone?

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lan Si's gaze shifted to the slender blue silver grass, a mocking smile playing on his lips. At this moment, he was fully aware that his identity had been exposed. Even when he broke through to level forty-eight, his appearance almost reverted to its original state, let alone after absorbing the soul bone and instantly gaining two more levels. Needless to say, he had already returned to his original appearance.

"You're not a mistress. Who are you? Why do you have a trace of the Blue Silver Emperor's bloodline and can hear my voice?" Ah Yin's voice was somewhat angry. When Lan Si first came in, she was overjoyed because her child had grown up and was very outstanding. At a young age, he had already reached a level close to that of a human Soul King.

However, after Lan Si absorbed her soul bone, not only did his aura change completely, but his entire appearance also changed, and his hair changed from black to ice blue.

She didn't remember her son looking like this, and even if the Blue Silver Emperor awakened, his hair color would only turn dark blue, not ice blue.

Most importantly, he no longer possessed any trace of the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline.

The fact that the other party could hear her voice was truly perplexing to her. In her current state, although she retained some consciousness, she was incredibly weak, possessing no offensive power whatsoever, and even her mental strength was pitifully low. It seemed that only the Blue Silver King could communicate with her through the unique mental network of the Blue Silver Grass.

Perhaps one day his own son could do the same, but that would require his spiritual power to grow to an extremely high level and awaken the Blue Silver Emperor.

Upon hearing this, Lan Si's eyes flickered slightly, and a hint of wicked amusement instantly welled up in his heart. He said calmly, "Who I am is not important. What is important is that your son is dead."

"You killed him? Why? Why did you do this? What did Xiao San do to you? Why did you kill him?" Ah Yin cried. Even though she knew she was no match for him, when she heard that her son was dead, she still desperately extended the branches and leaves as much as possible to bind Lan Si.

"Don't worry, your son isn't dead yet." Lan Si didn't resist because Ah Yin posed no threat to him whatsoever. If he struggled even slightly, or if he activated the Supreme Qiankun Technique and released the bluish-white flames, Ah Yin would be doomed.

"Then what did you mean by what you just said?" Ah Yin loosened the branches that were binding Lan Si a little.

"As the saying goes, seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving. Whether your son is dead or not, you have to decide for yourself." As she spoke, Lan Si closed her eyes again, trying to enter the green lotus space, but found that no matter how she circulated her mental energy, it was to no avail. Helpless, she could only connect her mental energy with A Yin, recalling the scene of Tang Ritian's battle with Qian Xunji, and then the baby in her arms being possessed by an outsider soul.

He transmitted it to A-Yin in the form of mental energy.

When she saw her son, exhausted from fighting Tang Ritian, having gone three days and three nights without food or water and in extreme weakness, being possessed by an outsider's soul, and his helpless and pained expression, Ah Yin broke down in tears: "No... my child..."

"Do you still think you're alive? Or do you believe I killed your child?" Lan Si asked with a smile.

"Is what you showed me real?" Ah Yin still couldn't believe it, or rather, she didn't want to believe it. She didn't want to believe that her child, who had only been born a short time ago, had been violated and died.

Chapter 204 Ah Yin, Your Son Has Been Possessed

"You'll have to discover that for yourself." Lan Si gave a mysterious smile, offering no further explanation. Sometimes, saying too much only makes things seem too deliberate.

"Why are you telling me all this?" Ah Yin groaned in pain as the branches binding Lan Si slowly loosened.

Lan Si pondered for a moment, then sighed softly, "Whether as a mother or a wife, you are great. You are willing to sacrifice yourself for your husband and your son. Few can compare to that. Consider it payment for absorbing your soul bone." —And incidentally, she'll trick Tang San a little more.

Ah Yin said seriously, "Sooner or later, I will verify it. As for you deceiving me about my soul bone, I can forgive you, but my husband will definitely cause you trouble. I hope you get your revenge."

“You don’t need to worry about that. I believe that one day in the future, we will meet again.” Lan Si stood up, shrugged his limbs which had gone numb from sitting cross-legged for too long, turned and left the cave, thinking to himself, “By then, perhaps we will be enemies.”

............

As evening approached and the sun set, the evening glow in the west contrasted beautifully and spectacularly with the Wuhun City.

Behind the Papal Mountains, in a dark valley where sunlight never reaches, a three-story tenement building rises from the ground.

At first glance, the tenement building doesn't seem very big, but if you go inside, you'll find that it's a hidden gem.

The three floors above ground are merely for show, serving as living quarters for the guards; looking down, the interior is at least ten stories high. The overall space resembles two giant cones overlapping each other. The diameter of each of the first five floors increases progressively from top to bottom, while the diameter gradually decreases in the last five floors.

This is a place specifically used by the Spirit Hall to imprison evil spirit masters. It used to be overcrowded, but due to the Spirit Hall's relentless pursuit, the number of evil spirit masters gradually decreased. Even now, there are only a handful of evil spirit masters imprisoned there.

Because those evil soul masters either died during the pursuit by the Spirit Hall's law enforcement team or escaped into the City of Slaughter.

But at the very bottom, an extremely beautiful scene appears.

This was an extremely dark and cramped room, with the three large characters "No. 11" crookedly written on the iron door.

"Invincibility Begins with Sacrificing to the Ancestral Master"

Despite the surrounding cells being empty, this not-so-large cell was overcrowded. Furthermore, men's groans could often be heard coming from inside.

"Haha... Rose, I heard you were arrested for stealing the Pope's decree. You've got some nerve, daring to impersonate an elder of the Spirit Hall and go see His Holiness the Pope with the stolen decree."

The speaker was a burly, bearded middle-aged man, shirtless, with terrifying and hideous scars on his face and chest. He was surrounded by a dozen large, ugly men, looking smug and proud, like a star surrounded by the moon.

People with this kind of face are usually quite domineering, making others tremble and feel a chill down their spines.

But this man possessed no trace of domineering aura; all he exuded was lewdness and insatiable hunger. His large, bell-shaped eyes stared excitedly ahead, as if gazing at an unparalleled beauty, almost bulging out of their sockets.

Opposite the bearded middle-aged man lay a man with a crew cut. He was of medium build and average appearance, his pale face covered in grime-covered stubble. His crotch was stained with blood, and his body was covered in a strange, milky-white liquid that smelled of squid and urine.

He is Yu Xiaogang, also known as Yu Xiaogang.

Four hours had passed since Lan Si kicked him and he was imprisoned in this jail; a full eight hours. From morning until evening, heaven knows how he got through it all.

First, he was kicked by 'Bibi Dong' and fell into a coma, his manhood severed.

Then, with the help of several healing and support-type Soul Masters and physicians, the shattered parts were cut off, feathers were inserted, the pelvis was reattached, and emergency treatment was given. After an hour, the injuries were basically stable. He was then taken to this dark, damp place, filled with beasts.

Eight whole hours, eight whole hours—God knows how he endured it. First, he was raped more than ten times by this huge, gay man with a scar on his face, and then the scarred guy's henchmen swarmed around him and ravaged him in every way imaginable.

Under the inhumane torture of more than ten burly men, he suffered seven or eight fractures all over his body, and his pelvis, which had only recently been set, was completely cracked. He was living a life worse than death.

But he couldn't die even if he wanted to. Whenever he thought he was about to pass away, a healing-type soul master would always appear outside the prison to heal him.

Thus, he endured a painful eight hours of being "beaten up" by more than a dozen burly men.

Even now, he still can't understand why Bibi Dong, whom he used and manipulated at will back then, was so naive and unaware of it, would treat him this way.

Can time really change a person's heart?

Are you not going to show any leniency at all?

Yu Xiaogang was very puzzled.

"Big brother, I really have no strength left, please let me rest for a while." Yu Xiaogang tightened her buttocks, and a large amount of milky white liquid mixed with blood gushed out.

"Rest? Rest my ass," the scarred middle-aged man sneered. "You old codger, you're dreaming. If you really rested, where would we, your millions of descendants, settle down? I'll give you two choices: first, stick your butt out; second, open your mouth. You choose one."

"You...you beasts will not have a good end. One day my disciple will avenge me." Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's pale face instantly turned bright red.

"Hey, he dares to curse me? Looks like we've been too lenient. Come on... brothers, get your weapons ready—teach him a lesson." The scarred middle-aged man rolled up his non-existent sleeves, ready to charge at the man. Just then, with a bang, the cell doors were flung open, and two fully armed armored soldiers appeared in the doorway.

One of them glanced at the prisoners with disdain, then turned to Yu Xiaogang on the ground and said indifferently, "Yu Xiaogang, you can be released now."

A short while later, supported by two death row inmates, Yu Xiaogang was led to the interrogation room. The warden received him.

The warden stared indifferently at Yu Xiaogang. "Yu Xiaogang, congratulations, you can leave now. You are very lucky. In decades, you are the first person to leave the dormitory after committing such a heinous crime. You should thank Her Majesty the Great Pope for her magnanimity. It was she who gave you a second life."
