Chapter 49: Bibi Dong: I Have Many Rumors About the Upper Three Sects
[ Regarding the strengths of his own son, Yu Xiaogang, Yu Yuanzhen naturally could not reveal everything. ]
[ After all, this involved whale glue; if people from the Spirit Hall found out, he wouldn't be able to buy it anymore. ]
[ Although the various forces on the Douluo Continent were currently quite harmonious, there were still competitive relationships between them. ]
[ For example, the Upper Three Sects had a relatively good relationship, and they united to form a balance against the Spirit Hall. ]
[ But no one could guarantee that this balance would last forever, so keeping one's trump cards was still very important. ]
[ While the three Titled Douluo were talking, Bibi Dong, who was nearby, also came to Yu Xiaogang's side. ]
[ "Thank you for just now." ]
[ Bibi Dong thanked Yu Xiaogang with a grateful expression. ]
[ If Yu Xiaogang hadn't helped her block that Wind Baboon that appeared suddenly just now, she might have died at its hands. ]
[ A dignified Disciple of the Pope of the Spirit Hall dying at the hands of a ten-year Wind Baboon—if that got out, people would probably laugh their heads off. ]
[ "It was just a small effort. Besides, His Excellency Thunder and the others must have been paying attention to the situation here all along." ]
[ "Even without me, they would have been able to save you." ]
[ Yu Xiaogang said calmly. ]
[ "Let me introduce myself. My name is Bibi Dong, and I am a Disciple of the current Pope of the Spirit Hall." ]
[ "Are you and His Excellency Thunder also here to obtain a spirit ring? Which spirit ring is it?" ]
[ After thanking him, Bibi Dong introduced herself and then asked curiously. ]
[ "My name is Yu Xiaogang, and I'm here to obtain my first spirit ring." ]
[ Yu Xiaogang raised an eyebrow and glanced at Bibi Dong. ]
[ A Disciple of the Pope of the Spirit Hall, protected by two Titled Douluo when going out. ]
[ "I guess that even in the Spirit Hall, this Bibi Dong's status is extraordinary." ]
[ "Also, she's about the same age as me but already getting her second spirit ring; how could she be just an ordinary person?" ]
[ Laughing at himself, Yu Xiaogang cheered up. ]
[ So what if I'm behind now? It's too early to say what the future will be like. ]
[ "first spirit ring? Is your Spirit also a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon? I heard that your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's Spirit is the number one Beast Spirit in the world. I don't know how my Spirit compares to your Family's Spirit." ]
[ "Also, I've heard that the reason your Sect's Spirit is the number one Beast Spirit in the world is because you often slaughter Spirit Beasts, drink their blood, and eat their raw meat. Is this all true?" ]
[ "If that's really the case, I have a Beast Spirit too; do I have to do that as well?" ]
[ As if she had opened a chatterbox, Bibi Dong stared with her big, bright eyes and asked Yu Xiaogang curiously. ]
[ And when asking whether they slaughtered Spirit Beasts to drink blood and eat meat, Bibi Dong subconsciously glanced at Yu Xiaogang's lips, as if to confirm whether he had done such things. ]
[ In the end, when she said she would have to do the same, her pretty little face scrunched up. ]
[ Hearing Bibi Dong's words, Yu Xiaogang had black lines on his face. ]
[ "Where did you hear such rumors? Drinking blood and eating raw meat? Please, even if we really wanted to eat Spirit Beast meat, we would cook it first." ]
[ "Raw meat? Only those with special fetishes could eat that, right?" ]
[ Yu Xiaogang said, frowning. ]
[ Especially when thinking about eating raw Spirit Beast meat, yuck~ ]
[ Yu Xiaogang certainly knew that some people liked to eat that way, but he couldn't do it. ]
[ "It's not true? Are you sure?" ]
[ "I am absolutely, positively sure. In the future, listen to fewer rumors; many things are simply not credible." ]
[ "But many people say so, for example, that the people of the Clear Sky Sect are all slovenly, scruffy, and sweaty big men." ]
[ "The people of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are all shifty-eyed villains who scheme about this and that all day." ]
[ "..." ]
[ "And, and, the people of your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, besides drinking blood and eating raw meat, like to use Martial Soul Possession, smear Spirit Beast feces on themselves, and then pretend to be Spirit Beasts, living like Spirit Beasts." ]
[ "..." ]
[ "A few days ago, I even heard rumors in the streets that some Spirit Masters from the Upper Three Sects even want to marry Spirit Beasts." ]
[ "...6" ]
[ Yu Xiaogang stared dumbfounded as Bibi Dong rattled off the rumors about the Upper Three Sects. ]
[ He hadn't had contact with the Clear Sky Sect or the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so he wouldn't comment. ]
[ But he had lived in the Sect for all these years; how did he not know that the members of his own Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect had such fetishes? ]
[ Smearing Spirit Beast feces on themselves, pretending to be Spirit Beasts, and living like Spirit Beasts? ]
[ Good heavens, were the people spreading these rumors not afraid of being hunted down by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect? ]
[ As for the later part about marrying Spirit Beasts, that was even more ridiculous; this went against human ethics. Which Sect on the continent could accept such a thing? ]
[ Of course, what made Yu Xiaogang feel even more incomprehensible was that Bibi Dong actually knew so many rumors. ]
[ Sister, you are a Disciple of the Pope of the Spirit Hall. It's one thing for these things to reach your ears, but how could you actually believe them? ]
[ Couldn't these things be verified by asking your teacher, the Supreme Pontiff? ]
[ "You believe such ridiculous rumors?" ]
[ Yu Xiaogang, speechless, finally asked with a somewhat twisted expression. ]
[ "But the people on the street were so adamant; they even said that if this information was fake, they would write their names backward." ]
[ "They even swore an oath, so it can't be fake, right?" ]
[ Bibi Dong asked with a serious face. ]
[ Slap! ]
[ Yu Xiaogang slapped his face, speechless for a moment. ]
[ This was just casual gossip on the street, and someone actually believed it. Just how innocent could you be? ]
[ "This information is all fake... No, I can't confirm the information about the Clear Sky Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but the information about our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect is completely false." ]
[ "We don't drink blood, we don't eat raw meat, and we don't like to smear Spirit Beast feces on ourselves and live with Spirit Beasts." ]
[ "And we have no intention of marrying Spirit Beasts!" ]
[ "These are all slanders against our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!" ]
[ Yu Xiaogang said every word very seriously. ]
[ Seemingly to make Bibi Dong believe him, Yu Xiaogang specifically took out some snacks he was carrying from his storage soul tool. ]
[ "Look, this is what we eat on a daily basis; it's not raw meat or anything, right?" ]
[ Handing the snacks to Bibi Dong, Yu Xiaogang wanted her to see clearly. ]
[ However, what Yu Xiaogang didn't expect was that Bibi Dong looked at the snacks in his hand and actually reached out and grabbed a handful. ]
[ Picking up a piece and putting it into her mouth, she chewed twice, and Bibi Dong's eyes lit up. ]
[ "Delicious!" ]
[ After saying that, Bibi Dong grabbed the edge of the snack bag and took all the snacks. ]
[ Then, under Yu Xiaogang's dumbfounded gaze, she said thank you. ]
[ "Thank you for treating me to snacks. When you go to Spirit City, I'll treat you to something delicious too." ]
