Ding!
[Congratulations to Qian Renxue for triggering a hidden mission reward: Spirit Power Level increased.]
???
All of a sudden.
Reading novels at leisure is so comfortable.
Gu Yuena and the other three, who had just finished discussing their plan, were all dumbfounded when they saw the prompts from the diary instance.
Wait, what?
We just decided to take action, and you, Qian Renxue, have already beaten us to it and succeeded?
You're not playing fair!
"I understand now."
Ah Yin suddenly spoke up, "My Lord, think about dinner tonight. That Bibi Dong kept urging Liam and Qian Renxue to drink... she had this planned all along!"
Gu Yuena and the other two were stunned upon hearing this.
Bi Ji muttered:
"So this was actually facilitated by Bibi Dong?"
Zi Ji had a strange expression on her face as she said:
"Isn't Bibi Dong Qian Renxue's mother?"
Gu Yuena shook her head.
They didn't know much about Qian Renxue's situation because Liam hadn't written about her in the Diary; they only had a rough idea from the experiences of others.
However...
Bibi Dong's actions made Gu Yuena even more certain that what she was doing was right!
"Bibi Dong and the others' strength has increased again."
Ah Yin looked at Gu Yuena and asked:
"My Lord, do you mean the group led by Bibi Dong and Hu Liena?"
Gu Yuena shook her head slightly and said:
"Not that kind of strength. Qian Renxue's Spirit Power should have been at level seventy. Now that she's received a thirty-level Spirit Power boost, she's also a level one hundred Quasi-God."
Zi Ji and Bi Ji looked at each other and then at Gu Yuena, asking:
"My Lord, do you think the two of us can get thirty levels of Spirit Power?"
"Do we need to transform into humans and Cultivate first?"
Gu Yuena thought for a moment and replied:
"No need!"
"The rule that Soul Beasts cannot become gods—once I have Liam's help, I will definitely be able to break it."
On the other side.
When Bibi Dong saw the prompts from the diary instance, a smile appeared on her face.
"Little Xue has successfully taken this step."
Hu Liena also nodded happily and said:
"That's great."
"Finally, I'm sisters with Little Xue."
"Yes, yes."
Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan were also smiling, but their smiles had deep meanings. Especially after hearing Hu Liena's words, they all couldn't help but look at Bibi Dong together.
Pope sister and Little Xue sister?
Who is whose elder sister, and who is whose younger sister?
Well...
Bibi Dong noticed the deep meaning in their smiles, and her expression immediately slumped a bit.
She was worried!
Ye Lingling suddenly looked at Hu Liena and asked:
"Nana, I remember you once promised Little Xue that if she became sisters with us, you'd give up the position of the eldest sister in the family to her?"
Oh?
Ning Rongrong and the others instantly looked at Hu Liena with strange looks in their eyes.
Hu Liena spoke with complete sincerity:
"Actually, you all know that there are more and more sisters in the family, and so many women outside are eyeing our man. My personality isn't suited to being the eldest sister."
"After the matters at Sea God Island are over and we return to Spirit City together, I will discuss it with Liam."
Ye Lingling was instantly awkward. She had originally just wanted to joke with Hu Liena and Bibi Dong, but who knew Hu Liena was being serious?
Bibi Dong was now dumbfounded.
Wait, what?
Little Fox, you're actually going to nominate Little Xue to be the eldest sister of the household?
Then in the future when I see her, won't I... won't I have to pay my respects to her?
As expected!
Liam's Diary never lies. You little ungrateful wolf, don't you consider your teacher's feelings at all?
Speaking of which...
Spirit City.
Xiao Wu leaned into Liu Erlong's embrace, her tone somewhat worried: "Aunt Erlong, do you think if the Lord reads the Diary, she'll have me captured and executed?"
Liu Erlong held Xiao Wu, thought for a bit, and replied:
"Logically speaking, yes."
"However, haven't you already abandoned the darkness for the light? Besides, she herself is the disgrace of the spirit beasts; would she still have the face to capture you?"
Xiao Wu was still very afraid and replied in a low voice: "Aunt Erlong, why is my life so bitter?"
"Tch."
Liu Erlong said speechlessly:
"Give it a rest!"
"How is your life bitter? Can your life be as bitter as mine and Bibi Dong's?"
Xiao Wu thought about it and agreed; at least she could be considered an attachment. These two—were pure Blind Douluos.
Liu Erlong hesitated for a moment and then said:
"Actually, if you're uneasy, once that bastard Liam comes back, work hard to win him over and join his family. That way, you won't have to live in fear anymore."
Xiao Wu fell silent for a moment upon hearing this and asked:
"Then what about you, Aunt Erlong?"
"Me?"
Liu Erlong's mood was a bit complicated. She suddenly thought of that time she slept with Spirit Kite Douluo, when that bastard Liam had already "eaten" half of her, but in the end, between being a beast and being worse than a beast, he actually chose to be worse than a beast?
The thought of it made her so angry.
Ding!
Just as Liu Erlong was reminiscing and her body temperature was starting to rise, she heard the reward notification from the Diary.
"Qian Renxue?"
Liu Erlong had many questions in her mind. She had stayed in Heaven Dou for many years, but she had never heard that Qian Renxue was in Heaven Dou City!
Xiao Wu said with some envy:
"Qian Renxue, huh? I didn't expect her to actually get a thirty-level Spirit Power reward."
Liu Erlong said somewhat sourly:
"Keeping the benefits within the family, I suppose."
In the room next door.
Huo Wu also sat up from the bed in shock.
"Qian Renxue?"
"Zhu Zhu, Yiran, have you ever seen Qian Renxue?"
Jiang Zhu and Meng Yiran both shook their heads.
Huo Wu also sighed:
"Sigh, Liam has clearly only been gone for two days, but it feels to me like he's been gone for half a year. When on earth will he come back?"
Meng Yiran sneered:
"You little flirt, even if Liam were at home, you wouldn't find an opportunity."
Huo Wu rolled her eyes at her, clearly unconvinced.
Jiang Zhu said frankly:
"Our chances in the future are even slimmer."
"As more and more people join the big family, there are countless beautiful women with great figures. Whether it's in terms of looks or talent, we don't have the qualifications to surpass others."
Huo Wu instantly lost heart upon hearing this and said:
"Sigh, if only Liam only had level fifteen Spirit Power, how great that would be. We could just use force on him!"
"Lock him in a secret room, hehehe~"
Meng Yiran and Jiang Zhu both looked at Huo Wu at once. Fine, fine, fine! You're the one with the ideas. Tell us, do you have Bibi Dong's blood flowing in you?
Then in another large room nearby.
The members of the Skywater Academy Girl Group were all sitting on their beds in a daze. Liam's departure made them, who already had little chance, have even less of a chance now.
Shui Yue'er muttered:
"People say there's only a thin veil between a girl chasing a boy, but it doesn't seem to work here."
"Sisters, do you think we'll have a chance if we keep staying here?"
They didn't know Qian Renxue, but her success made them feel a bit discouraged.
After all, with so many of them plus Huo Wu's group, everyone had been by Liam's side all along, yet Liam hadn't taken a step further with any of them. Instead, he had just left and immediately took a step further with Qian Renxue.
This meant that to succeed, one needed to be liked by Liam. If Liam didn't like you, it was useless even if you pestered him every day.
