Chapter 11 As long as Mom is there, everything will be alright.
……
The Papal Palace, and the side garden.
A cool night breeze rustled the leaves in the garden.
"Mom, look how bright that star is!"
Qian Renxue nestled in Nan Feng's (Spider King's clone) arms, her little finger pointing to the brightest star in the night sky, her face beaming with an unprecedentedly happy smile.
"Hmm, it's very bright."
Nan Feng gently swayed the swing, his chin resting on Qian Renxue's soft hair, a gentle smile on his lips, but deep in his purple eyes, the gradually deepening night was reflected.
"Xue'er".
Nan Feng suddenly spoke, his tone tinged with confusion and curiosity, "There's something your mother has always wanted to ask you."
"Hmm? What's the problem, Mom?" Qian Renxue turned her head, her big eyes blinking.
"Although I can't remember much about the past, I vaguely heard palace maids mention that your father... was His Holiness the current Pope?"
Qian Renxue's body stiffened abruptly, and her small hands instinctively gripped Nan Feng's clothes tightly.
"Besides, His Holiness the Pope is still alive and well in the Papal Palace, so why did you tell Mom that day that he was dead?"
"this……"
Qian Renxue panicked.
These past few days she has been so immersed in the happiness of "having a mother" that she has completely forgotten this fatal logical flaw.
Grandpa said that Mom must never know that Dad is still alive, otherwise Mom will turn back into the cold and scary person she used to be!
Qian Renxue stammered, her eyes already welling up with tears. She stubbornly clung to the lie, "Dad... Dad is really dead! He died a long, long time ago!"
"That pope... he's not... not my father!"
"Really?" Nan Feng pressed.
"Really! Xue'er isn't lying to Mom!" Qian Renxue cried out.
In order to hold onto this hard-won maternal love, the poor child had no choice but to curse his own father again and again.
Qian Daoliu, who was hiding in the shadows, heard this conversation and felt a mix of emotions.
He sighed, just about to send a telepathic message to Xue'er to reassure her, when suddenly—
Boom!
My heart skipped a beat.
An unprecedented feeling of palpitation struck without warning, as if... something extremely important, something connected to him by blood, was being completely severed in that instant!
"not good!"
As a peerless Douluo, Qian Daoliu's intuition was incredibly sharp. He suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the Pope's palace. Although it seemed calm there, in his eyes, an extremely evil and oppressive aura was slowly rising!
That's... Bibi Dong's aura!
"A diversionary tactic?!"
Qian Daoliu's expression changed drastically. He could no longer care about hiding his figure, and he didn't even have time to greet Qian Renxue. He turned into a golden stream of light and disappeared from the spot in an instant!
"Okay, okay, don't cry, don't cry."
Nan Feng quickly hugged Qian Renxue tightly, gently patted her back, and softly comforted her, "Mom believes you and will listen to Xue'er."
"So what if they're dead? It's no big deal if someone who's insignificant dies."
"As long as Mom is here, no one will be able to bully Xue'er in the future."
Qian Renxue sobbed, burying her face in Nan Feng's arms and nodding vigorously, "Yes! As long as Mommy is here, that's enough!"
However, at this moment, Qian Renxue had no idea that the phrase "It's okay to die" was becoming a reality in a tragic way in the Pope's bedroom, just a few hundred meters away.
Through the connection of the soul blood pact, Nan Feng clearly felt the emotional fluctuations coming from Bibi Dong.
That was the ultimate madness, the exhilaration, and... the relief of successful revenge!
"It seems they've already started over there."
Nan Feng lowered his head, looking at Qian Renxue who was still sobbing in his arms, a meaningful light flashing in his eyes.
"Xiao Xue'er, congratulations."
Your prophecy has come true.
"Your dear father... is really dead."
……
The first rays of morning sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone on the swings in the side garden.
Qian Renxue rubbed her sleepy eyes and snuggled against Nan Feng's chest like a lazy kitten.
"Good morning, Mom."
"morning."
Nan Feng's voice was extremely hoarse, his purple eyes were incredibly empty, and he exuded a sense of utter exhaustion, as if he had been hollowed out.
Only heaven knows what he went through that night!
As a soul, he truly does not need to sleep.
But last night, through the connection of the soul blood pact, the mental fluctuations coming from Bibi Dong's side were like an endless mental tsunami!
As Bibi Dong devoured Qian Xunji and opened the Rakshasa Secret Realm, the malicious thoughts from the evil god poured into Nan Feng's consciousness without reservation through the soul contract.
That wasn't ordinary murderous intent; it was the most primal, blatant, and nauseating evil thought!
Tyranny, greed, lust, destruction...
Countless frantic voices roared in his mind, amplifying the darkest, most suppressed aspects of his heart.
He felt like a drunkard who had been thrown into a washing machine, the kind filled with broken glass, his brains about to be shaken to bits!
The most outrageous thing is that he was almost on the verge of a mental breakdown just because he was affected as a "bystander".
Bibi Dong, who was at the center of the vortex, not only withstood the impact of this evil thought, but also had the strength to break through the bottleneck by using this power!
That woman is fucking awesome!
"Mom, what's wrong? You look terrible..." Qian Renxue was now fully awake and became anxious when she saw Nan Feng's pale and slightly distorted face.
"It's nothing, Mom just... had nightmares all night."
Nan Feng forced a smile and reached out to touch Qian Renxue's head. The overwhelming sense of unease he felt made him realize that he had to leave immediately, otherwise this clone might explode on the spot due to mental instability.
"Xue'er, Mommy is tired and needs to go back and rest."
"Then...then should I take Mom?" Qian Renxue asked, somewhat reluctantly.
"No need, you just stay here and cultivate obediently."
Nan Feng stood up and quickly walked out of the yard as if fleeing a disaster. "Mom will come to see you another day."
……
As soon as I turned the corner of the corridor, I made sure I was out of Qian Renxue's sight.
Om-!
The Spider King clone that Nan Feng was riding instantly disintegrated, turning into countless purplish-black light spots that dissipated into the air.
At the same time, his main consciousness instantly crossed space and plunged back into his main body in the Saintess Palace!
……
The Holy Maiden's Palace, a secret chamber within the palace.
The once peaceful space was suddenly rippled violently, and a pitch-black spatial rift, exuding a chilling aura, tore open out of thin air.
pat.
A foot wearing purple high heels stepped out, followed by a long, straight leg, and a purple robe stained with a hint of blood and the aura of an evil god.
Bibi Dong.
She's back.
At this moment, she was surrounded by a faint purple-green mist, which made her originally cold and beautiful face even more alluring and seductive.
Those eyes were as deep as a bottomless abyss; just looking into them sent shivers down one's spine.
Level 97!
Having devoured Qian Xunji and undergone a night of baptism by evil thoughts in the Rakshasa Secret Realm, her soul power not only became completely stable, but also took another step forward, entering the ranks of the peak Douluo of level ninety-seven!
