Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, another two years had gone by.
In the Papal Palace of Spirit City, Bai Yu sat on the Papal Throne, reviewing the various messages submitted to him like an emperor approving memorials.
He has been doing this job for almost two years now, going through three stages: from being overwhelmed at the beginning, to feeling desperate, and now returning to calm.
Normally, Bibi Dong is the Pope, and she hasn't abdicated yet. These matters shouldn't be Bai Yu's concern.
But life is unpredictable and ever-changing. Initially, it was because Bai Yu spent all his time either with women or wandering the streets.
Bibi Dong felt uncomfortable watching this, so she used the ridiculous excuse that Bai Yu was the Holy Son and needed to be familiar with the affairs of Spirit Hall to drag him over and make him a laborer.
However, Bai Yu did not object. After all, in his opinion, it didn't matter if he was a laborer for two days. He could just use it to appease Bibi Dong.
But what was unexpected was that before he could find an excuse to leave, problems arose on Bibi Dong's side.
The Rakshasa God's legacy within her is starting to cause trouble, wanting her to quickly inherit the divine position.
The reason is that Bibi Dong's soul power had already reached level 97 before she obtained the Time Book diary.
Even though she listened to Bai Yu's advice and didn't cultivate for the past few years, she still reached level 100 because of the annual level increase.
Since soul power undergoes a qualitative change upon reaching level 100, transforming from soul power into divine power, and Bibi Dong's Rakshasa God inheritance is somewhat irresponsible, there is no information on this aspect.
This meant that Bibi Dong made no attempt to conceal her breakthrough, and by the time she realized it, it was too late; the Rakshasa divine sense within her inheritance had discovered it.
So Rakshasa Goddess was furious. She felt she had been tricked. She was already level 100, and the successor still hadn't inherited the divine position. What the hell was she waiting for?
So she started causing trouble, trying to get Bibi Dong to quickly complete the divine test and inherit the divine position so that she could leave the divine realm and go off to have fun.
But Bibi Dong was not happy. She wanted to stay in the mortal realm for a while longer. Wouldn't it be strange to inherit a godhood so early?
These two differing viewpoints caused Bibi Dong to act as if she had a split personality, arguing incessantly with the Rakshasa spirit attached to her every day, like a shrew in a market.
Under these circumstances, Bibi Dong naturally had no mood to deal with affairs, so she simply made up a reason that her cultivation had gone wrong and she needed to go into seclusion, leaving everything to Bai Yu.
Having put aside her papal affairs, Bibi Dong's only daily activity was engaging in a fierce battle with the Rakshasa divine thought in her mind, a battle that lasted for almost a year.
However, although Bibi Dong didn't tell Bai Yu the truth because of the Book of Time, Bai Yu still found out.
Don't forget, his martial soul, the Hongming Blade, is still on Bibi Dong's body. Through the entanglement of the Hongming Blade and Bibi Dong's aura, it can be said that Bai Yu can know whatever Bibi Dong is doing, as long as he wants to.
Sometimes he couldn't help but sigh, if Bibi Dong had refined the Life Gold and transformed her soul into a divine soul, would she be so troubled by a wisp of divine thought as she is now?
But at this point, he had no reason to send the Life Gold to Bibi Dong. If he did, it wouldn't be Bibi Dong who would be exposed, but rather he, Bai Yu, would be exposed.
At the same time, through Bibi Dong, he also verified one of the rules of that broken notebook.
The reason is that after reaching level 100, the ability to increase one level of soul power every year suddenly became useless.
Because even a year after Bibi Dong broke through level 100, she was still at level 100 and did not receive any improvement.
This isn't because she's stuck without the tenth ring. After all, even if someone is stuck, they can still feel the increase in soul power. Bibi Dong, for example, genuinely hasn't improved at all.
After much contemplation, Bai Yu studied the tattered notebook again and again.
Finally, he found a reason that seems impossible, but is actually very possible for this piece of junk.
The notebook's awful description clearly states one thing: it increases soul power by one level per year. Please note the emphasis on the word "soul power"!
So when Bai Yu was so angry he wanted to scream to the sky and tear the notebook apart, he finally noticed those two words.
Then he figured it out: this broken thing could only increase soul power, but after level 100, the soul power in his body would turn into divine power, and this broken thing would be useless.
After that, he had one more reason to despise the notebook.
He was hoping to use it to quickly get through the mid-game and develop into the late game, but he didn't expect this piece of junk to be so useless. It completely ruined his game after the early game.
At the same time, Bai Yu was secretly relieved that his trump card was not this useless piece of trash, otherwise even if he became a god, he would only be a broken priest.
The thought that without the Law Record brought by his reincarnation, even if he became a god, he would still have to live under the thumb of Buddha Tang, sent a shiver down his spine.
"Your Holiness, I have received an unsigned letter from Spirit Hall. The recipient is you. What do you think...?"
While Bai Yu was reviewing the documents, a guard standing at the entrance of the Papal Palace suddenly walked in and handed over a letter.
Bai Yu looked at the letter in front of him, and his eyelids twitched for no reason. This letter directly reminded him of the time two years ago when he was tricked into bedding two sisters on two different occasions.
However, as the old saying goes, once you've come this far, you can't go back, can you? The same goes for this letter. It's already been delivered to Bai Yu's face. Can he really resist reading it and send it back untouched?
Without even thinking, it was clear that was impossible. Bai Yu then waved his hand, signaling the guards to leave, and then unfolded the letter to read it.
After reading the entire letter, Bai Yu narrowed his eyes, a smile curving his lips. With a flick of his fingers, the paper turned to dust.
"Hehe, Star Luo finally couldn't hold back anymore. I thought I wouldn't have a chance again this year."
"It seems that Tiandou should receive the news soon. Now we just need to wait for the little angel to send me a message so that the plan can begin."
Qian Renxue had already inherited the throne more than a year ago, but Star Luo, for some reason, did not make any moves last year.
With Star Luo remaining inactive, Qian Renxue, having just ascended the throne and with the court unstable, was also hesitant to make any rash moves.
Otherwise, the already dormant Prince Xue Xing would probably start acting up again.
This letter was sent by Zhu Zhuyun, who was still in Star Luo City, pretending to be in seclusion.
Although Bai Yu didn't ask her to deliver the message, she still sent him a letter when she learned that Star Luo was about to send troops to Tiandou, hoping he would prepare in advance.
However, to be honest, Bai Yu didn't have much to prepare. In terms of manpower, Spirit Hall had already prepared it several years ago, just waiting for the war to start and for the Tiandou Empire to ask for help.
