Inside the carriage, the atmosphere was chaotic. The little bunny was absolutely furious! She had been happily munching on melon seeds just a moment ago, but Su Yan's words left her completely dumbstruck.
As Dugu Yan and the others began to laugh at her expense, she became so flustered that she didn't know what to do. In a fit of embarrassment, she latched onto Su Yan's neck and gave it a firm suck.
The sensation drove Su Yan wild. If there weren't so many people watching them right now, he would have grabbed the greedy little devil and rewarded her with a big carrot of his own.
[Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: Little bunny, you are truly finished. You are a shame to all Spirit Beasts! How dare you sacrifice yourself to a human like that? This Empress will never forgive you for such a disgrace!]
[Loves Eating Carrots: Your Majesty, you aren't exactly in a position to talk, are you? You aren't much better yourself.]
[Ah Yin: She is already the third generation of her kind to do this!]
[Group Member No. 9: Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: I am sitting upright on my sickbed right now. Is the true shame of the Spirit Beasts actually me?!]
[Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: ???]
[Everyone: Hahaha!!]
[Su Yan: Let's get back to the facts. About a year after leaving Slaughter City, Hu Liena reached rank 59 spirit power at the age of twenty-five. She became the leader of the Golden Generation and was officially named the Holy Maiden of Spirit Hall. This made her the first-in-line successor to the Supreme Pontiff.]
[Su Yan: Because Xiao Wu's identity as a Spirit Beast had been exposed during the Spirit Master Tournament, Spirit Hall started an investigation. Bibi Dong planned to claim her spirit ring for herself. She dispatched the Chrysanthemum Douluo and the Ghost Douluo, along with twenty red-robed bishops who were all above rank 70.
They also took the Golden Generation into the Star Dou Great Forest to capture Xiao Wu alive. Since Bibi Dong's Spirit Bones are already full, Xiao Wu's bone was intended for Hu Liena.]
[Su Yan: During this mission to catch the bunny, Tang San was also searching for Xiao Wu. He spotted the Spirit Hall team the moment they entered the forest. He exploited Hu Liena's feelings for him to infiltrate their ranks. Under his guidance, Spirit Hall successfully located Xiao Wu, even though she was being guarded by the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape.]
[Everyone: ???]
[Yanzi is not a Swallow: Wait, you said they found her under Tang San's guidance?]
[I Am an Orphan: You must have written that wrong, right? That makes no sense.]
[Dark Avenger: Maybe we just read it wrong. Tang San wouldn't lead them to her.]
[Su Yan: No, you read it correctly. At this stage of the story, Tang San has already evolved his Blue Silver Emperor. He has incredible perception skills while inside the Star Dou Great Forest. He is the one who led the Spirit Hall group straight to Xiao Wu's hiding spot.]
[Su Yan: Here is the most ridiculous part. Tang San and Xiao Wu should have been able to escape easily. One is a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast in human form, and the other is a Blue Silver Emperor with super senses. Yet, inside their own home in the Star Dou Great Forest, they still couldn't get away from a group of rank 70 Spirit Saints. Cornered and desperate, Xiao Wu chose to sacrifice herself. She became Tang San's sixth spirit ring.]
[Su Yan: Star Dou is so lonely, the moonlight shines down. The world is in your eyes, a shape I cannot leave behind. Longing grows from those past days, and I left too much unsaid to you. You are the time I cannot bear to lose. (Su Yan begins humming the song "Unwilling to Part")]
[Everyone: ???]
[Liu Erlong: Look at you, are you seriously singing again?]
[Loves Eating Carrots: It actually sounds quite nice. But why the sudden solo performance?]
[Su Yan: Because this is your sacrifice theme music! The moment this song starts playing, you have no choice but to offer yourself up. It is just like how Tang Hao always appears whenever the song "Breaking Cocoon" plays.]
[Loves Eating Carrots: ???]
[Su Yan: Rise again! My beloved!]
[Everyone: Hahaha!!]
[Cat in the Shadows: Xiao Wu is moving up in the world. Other people only get a short poem, but she gets her own catchy, exclusive song.]
[Yanzi is not a Swallow: I am dying of laughter here. You little bunnies are truly hopeless. You actually escaped but still couldn't shake off the Spirit Hall experts?]
[Group Member No. 9: This is the Star Dou Great Forest we are talking about. Isn't that your home turf? How did you get caught?]
[Nine Treasures Little Princess: Xiao Wu, you are just too dumb. Your penalty is to listen to your sacrifice song ten times on repeat.]
[Winter Cutie: Hahaha!!]
Back inside the carriage, the little bunny's fur was bristling with pure rage. She straddled Su Yan's lap and used her hands to seal his mouth shut as hard as she could.
You like singing, don't you? You love to sing so much? Well, let's see you try to sing now!
Zhu Zhuqing and the others were completely stunned by her actions. This was getting intense! After finally getting a taste of Su Yan, the little bunny's courage had grown through the roof.
Dugu Yan knit her brows in mock disgust. "Eww! Little bunny, that is just gross!"
Ye Lingling suddenly added a witty comment. "Well, Xiao Wu, from now on you can definitely say that Su Yan is full of bad water."
Xiao Wu: ???
"Hahaha!!"
Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan laughed until their sides hurt. Ah Yin and Ling Yuan had been a bit shy at first, but now they also burst out laughing at the joke.
[Liu Erlong: Tang San, you total bastard! You are truly as disgusting as Yu Xiaogang. How could you use Hu Liena's feelings just to deceive her like that?]
[Dark Avenger: "Rise again my beloved"âwhat kind of line is that even supposed to be?]
[Su Yan: When the day comes that you finally eat the Little Rabbit, you will all understand everything.]
[Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: If this Empress were there, I would give one single command and every Spirit Beast in the forest would besiege you!]
[I Am an Orphan: That trash Little Fox is so blind. Your team is literally raising a ghost in your ranks and you still don't even know it?]
In the Supreme Pontiff Palace, Hu Liena lowered her head in shame. Bibi Dong looked at her and sighed helplessly.
"Forget it, I cannot truly blame you for this," Bibi Dong said softly. "That scoundrel Tang San is incredibly despicable. He actually dared to exploit your feelings for his own gain. Nana, you must keep your eyes open from now on and be more careful."
"Yes, teacher," Hu Liena replied. She felt absolutely awful inside.
[Winter Cutie: So, in this situation, Hu Liena causes Bibi Dong to lose her first hundred-thousand-year spirit ring. But what about the other two?]
[Su Yan: The remaining two rings... Hu Liena, are you in a safe place right now?]
[Hu Liena: ???]
[Liu Erlong: Old Woman, it looks like the good part is finally coming. Are you all ready for this?]
[Nine Treasures Little Princess: Hahaha!!]
[Bo Saixi: Hu Liena, you are really in trouble this time.]
[Dark Avenger: It looks like losing those next two spirit rings is the moment when Hu Liena truly becomes a love-brained traitor.]
[Ma Xiaotao: The Little Fox is finished!]
Inside the Supreme Pontiff Palace, Hu Liena was already shivering with fear. It was over. It was really over now. She thought to herself that Su Yan should have told her all of this earlier. If she had known, she could have run away from Spirit Hall in time to avoid the consequences! Bibi Dong's expression was very complicated as she kept her gaze fixed on Hu Liena.
[Su Yan: I told you before that Tang San is the type of person who lifts his bowl to eat meat and then puts down his chopsticks to curse his mother. When he left after obtaining the Slaughter God Domain, he destroyed Slaughter City. This provoked the Slaughter King to hunt down both him and Hu Liena.]
[Su Yan: Later, when Bibi Dong went out to hunt the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, Hu Liena was being chased by the Slaughter King. His goal was to capture her so he could lure Tang San out. Tang San appeared and saved her life. Because Hu Liena still had feelings for him, she revealed that Bibi Dong was currently in the Star Dou Great Forest hunting those two beasts.]
[Su Yan: Because of Hu Liena's leak, Tang San was able to snatch away the two hundred-thousand-year spirit rings that Bibi Dong should have easily obtained. Even the Ghost Douluo died during that battle because of this.]
[Su Yan: Lastly, I want to say something about Bibi Dong. You can claim she wronged anyone in her life, but she absolutely never wronged Hu Liena. She truly treated her like her own daughter. In fact, she treated her better than her real daughter, Qian Renxue. Yet, Hu Liena actually cost her three hundred-thousand-year spirit rings in total!]
At the Blue Tyrant Academy, Liu Erlong was laughing her head off. This was too good! The student had truly surpassed the master in terms of causing trouble.
[Liu Erlong: Old Woman, you better get ready to enforce some family discipline!]
[Bo Saixi: For the first spirit ring, we could say you were just tricked by Tang San. But these other two hundred-thousand-year spirit rings cannot be explained away so easily.]
[Yanzi is not a Swallow: A beating is the only way to handle this, hahaha!!]
[Group Member No. 9: Hu Liena, oh Hu Liena, how can we possibly save you now?]
[Tang Yuehua: You lost all your common sense the moment you saw a pretty boy, didn't you?]
[I Am a Little Bird: Nana, your Grandpa Gui loved you so much. What are we going to do now?]
[Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: They are just a pair of love-brained master and apprentice from Spirit Hall!]
[Red Dust Dream Dream Dream: 666.]
[Dark Avenger: Let it begin! Let the punishment begin!]
["Ma Xiaotao" sent an exclusive red packet to "Bibi Dong".]
[Dark Avenger: What did you just send to Bibi Dong?]
[Ma Xiaotao: I sent her a riding crop.]
[Everyone: ???]
[Liu Erlong: I am dying of laughter. Old Woman, please start your performance.]
[Ah Yin: 666.]
[Big Cat in the Shadow: Is this going to be live discipline? Or live family-law enforcement?]
Inside the Supreme Pontiff Palace, a loud bang echoed. Hu Liena knelt directly in front of Bibi Dong, feeling utterly hopeless. It was all over. She had cost her teacher three legendary spirit rings and had even caused the death of Grandpa Gui. Bibi Dong was about to explode with pure rage.
"You..." Bibi Dong stammered. "Nana, I valued you so much. I gave you everything. How could you do something like this to me?"
"Do you even understand what three hundred-thousand-year spirit rings mean? They might have been the turning point that saved the future of Spirit Hall!"
Hu Liena lowered her head toward the floor, not daring to look her teacher in the eye. "Teacher, I was wrong. I am so sorry."
Bibi Dong spoke through gritted teeth, her voice trembling with anger. "Stick your butt out right now!"
["Bibi Dong" claimed the exclusive red packet from "Ma Xiaotao".]
A small whip suddenly appeared in Bibi Dong's hand.
Hu Liena: ???
