Chapter 85: Bibi Dong Was Furious!
After completely absorbing the phoenix power in the elixir, Bai Chenxiang exclaimed with excitement,
"Grandpa, I did it! I finally have attack power now!"
"Why don't you thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Yes! Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince! I will never forget your kindness!"
Bai Chenxiang smiled sweetly, her large eyes filled with admiration for Davis.
Davis liked this cute girl more and more. Back in his previous life watching anime, he had always liked this charming little character. But more than anything, he felt a deep sense of pity for her—especially thinking of her tragic ending, following Ma Hongjun, a brothel-frequenting womanizer, and eventually dying of old age in Douluo Continent.
Every time Davis thought of her ending, he would curse Tang San in his heart for being a double-standard hypocrite.
You brought Huo Wu's mother's soul to the God Realm to reunite with her son, but couldn't do the same for your own cousin Bai Chenxiang?
But now that Davis was here, he would absolutely not allow her to wither away on the Douluo Continent.
Beside him, Zhu Zhuyun noticed Davis staring at Bai Chenxiang and, guessing that he was about to bring home another "sister," couldn't help but pinch and twist the flesh on his lower back!
"Ouch—" Davis flinched, quickly turning to see Zhu Zhuyun's furious expression. He smiled apologetically and didn't get angry. Instead, he gently wrapped his arm around her graceful waist.
After years of being together, Davis had already come to see Zhu Zhuyun as his most important woman. Even Qian Renxue couldn't take her place in his heart.
Seeing Davis hug her, Zhu Zhuyun's anger subsided.
Davis immediately said,
"Senior Bai He, I still have seven more pills here. They can give seven more sharp-tailed swift soul masters offensive capabilities. If I find more Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflowers in the future, I'll ask Senior Yang to refine more pills for the Min Clan soul masters."
Although the original fairy herb had been refined into pills, Davis had preserved the rhizome. If he planted it in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, it might grow into a new immortal herb in the future.
It would normally take hundreds, maybe even thousands of years to grow another immortal herb. But Davis wasn't in a hurry—he had Anna, the "Minister of Agriculture." With her injecting plant essence into the rhizome, the growth could be accelerated dramatically.
An herb that normally took centuries to mature could now grow into a full fairy grass in just a few years—or even less.
"Thank you, Your Highness! But even if we can't find another one, it doesn't matter," Bai He said with a smile. With seven pills, the martial spirits of seven clansmen could evolve, and future generations would awaken the Lingbo Feiyan spirit.
After some discussion, Bai He left the prince's mansion and returned to the Min Clan to arrange the relocation of his people to Star Luo City.
As for Bai Chenxiang, Bai He chose to leave her behind to study diligently with Davis. Naturally, Davis had no objections—having a beautiful girl by his side was a delightful arrangement.
"Chenxiang, make sure to train hard. When your soul power reaches level 20, I'll take you to hunt your first soul ring."
"Hehe, thank you, Brother Crown Prince!"
Bai Chenxiang beamed with joy. The evolution of her martial soul filled her with happiness.
It's worth noting that while her martial soul evolved, her soul power didn't increase—after all, she hadn't consumed the full Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, only absorbed part of its phoenix energy.
That phoenix power evolved her sharp-tailed swift into a flying swallow, but it wasn't enough to boost her cultivation. So Bai Chenxiang remained a level-16 soul master.
"Haha! Since you call me brother, I can't let you go empty-handed."
Davis took out his last Ninth-Grade Green Spirit Pill and handed it to her.
"Here. This pill can rapidly boost your soul power and speed up your cultivation."
Originally, Davis had intended to use this pill himself, but having already consumed five types of immortal herbs, he had developed some drug resistance. Taking it now would diminish the pill's effectiveness.
Since Bai Chenxiang was here, it was better to let her use it so the pill's effects wouldn't be wasted.
"Ah? Brother Crown Prince, this is too valuable. I can't accept—"
"Don't be polite. I have plenty of these. Just take it."
"Hehe, thank you, Brother!"
Hearing that, Bai Chenxiang no longer refused. She swallowed the pill and began refining it in silence.
While she meditated, Davis turned to Yang Wudi and asked him to send clan members to approach the Power Clan and the Defense Clan.
The Power Clan's patriarch, Titan, was famously loyal to Tang Hao—so persuading them would be difficult. But Davis still wanted to try. What if it worked?
As for the Defense Clan, they lived in Longxing City, within the Star Luo Empire's borders. Winning them over shouldn't be too hard—especially now that the Min Clan and Breaking Clan were already loyal to him.

Meanwhile, in Spirit City—inside the Pope's Palace.
Bibi Dong sat on her throne, frowning. Her cold, regal eyes radiated fury. Bishop Warwick, standing below, was trembling with fear—terrified that a single word could lead to his death.
When Bibi Dong heard the demands from the Star Luo Empire, she slammed her palm on the throne's armrest—
PAH!!
"Hmph! That prince of the Star Luo Empire has quite the appetite! Four ten-thousand-year soul bones?! Who gave him such boldness?!"
She roared in fury, her beautiful face frosty and terrifying. If Davis had been standing in front of her, she would have slapped him into oblivion.
Interestingly, Bibi Dong didn't even mention the 40 million gold soul coins—that kind of money was nothing to Spirit Hall. But the four soul bones? That was a painful loss!
Gulp...
Bishop Warwick swallowed nervously and stammered,
"Your Holiness... the Crown Prince of Star Luo said... if he doesn't receive the four soul bones within one month... then... then..."
"Then what?! Spit it out!"
"Yes, yes! He said... he would publicly behead Elder Ju and let the whole world watch a Titled Douluo be executed!"
"How DARE he!!"
Bibi Dong exploded with rage. To commoners and lower-level soul masters, a Titled Douluo was like a divine being.
For Davis to publicly execute a Titled Douluo was not just an insult—it was a direct challenge to the authority of the Spirit Hall, and a slap in Bibi Dong's face.
He was essentially saying: You're a Titled Douluo? So what? I've already executed one. I can do the same to the Pope of the Spirit Hall!
Ghost Douluo, upon hearing that his partner might be publicly executed, instantly knelt and pleaded,
"Your Holiness the Pope! Please save Elder Ju!"
"Teacher, I beg you too!"
Hu Liena also pleaded for Yue Guan. In the Spirit Hall, Yue Guan had always treated her well.
Seeing both Ghost Douluo and Hu Liena plead on Yue Guan's behalf, Bibi Dong's fury wavered slightly.
