Chapter 284: Bibi Dong: Can I, as his master, be outdone by Ah Yin?
Snow Empress’s detailed explanation of the Origins of attributes in the Chat Group...
...led Lin Qingmo into deep thought regarding his own Spirit’s Annihilation Attribute.
The Chat Group interface, which had been flickering sporadically, fell into a brief silence.
However, after a moment of silence, Qian Renxue’s message popped up again, breaking the stagnant atmosphere.
[Golden Angel]: A-Qing, where are you now?
Her fingertips finished tapping the send button.
Qian Renxue’s fingertips gently brushed against the secret order just issued by Emperor Xue Ye.
On the gilded secret letter, the cinnabar seal still held a lingering warmth, and the edges were slightly curled from her repeated stroking.
She seemed to be pondering something in her heart.
Soon, Lin Qingmo, having come back to his senses, replied to the message.
[Daddy Douluo]: Still in the Core Region of the Blue Silver Forest within the Star Dou Great Forest.
[Daddy Douluo]: After I finish wrapping things up here, I’ll head back to Heaven Dou City in about a day or two.
Qian Renxue stared at the message, a calculating smile instantly curling her delicate lips, a determined glint flashing in her eyes.
One or two days.
The timing is perfect.
She had already laid out a complete, seamless plan in her mind.
This Spirit Fight must be conducted in a grand and legitimate manner.
Using Emperor Xue Ye’s inspection of the new Royal Fighting Team’s combat capabilities as a pretext, she would organize an exchange Spirit Fight between Heaven Dou Royal Academy and other academies.
This would allow Emperor Xue Ye to witness the strength of the Royal Fighting Team firsthand, perfectly fulfill the duties of Xue Qinghe’s identity, and consolidate his position as the Crown Prince.
It would also provide a public occasion to witness firsthand exactly what kind of power Lin Qingmo, who had awakened the Blue Silver Life-Death Tree and controlled the Annihilation Attribute, could unleash.
Meanwhile, in the Chat Group, Lin Qingmo’s messages refreshed again.
[Daddy Douluo]: By the way, could everyone help me search for information regarding the Annihilation Attribute across the continent? Please keep an eye out for anything even remotely related.
As soon as the message was sent.
The Chat Group, which had been filled with occasional small talk, instantly fell into complete silence.
Everyone on the other side of the screens stared at each other in silence; no one dared to respond easily.
This was another classic "death trap" question.
The group collectively and tacitly turned on "Do Not Disturb," entering "playing dead" mode in unison.
[The Pope Herself]: I will help you search for information related to the Annihilation Attribute.
Bibi Dong looked at the Chat Group interface before her, her brows arching slightly as a trace of unconcealed helplessness and displeasure flickered in her eyes.
This group of people didn’t even dare to say a single word to keep up appearances.
It was just a casual promise that could put Lin Qingmo’s mind at ease, yet not a single person was willing to speak up.
In the end, she had to be the one to clean up this mess.
’What a bunch of useless fools.’
"..."
And one of the group members Bibi Dong despised, Ah Yin, was standing not far from her.
Her crystalline blue hair fluttered gently in the forest breeze as her gaze fell upon Bibi Dong, her expression exceptionally complex.
She was, of course, well aware of the woman’s true identity.
The Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong.
The most powerful and feared woman on the entire Douluo Continent.
But she knew even better that this woman had been pretending to be Lin Qingmo’s beloved "Sister Donghuang" in front of him.
In the Chat Group, she had also been carefully hiding her identity, terrified of slipping up and letting Lin Qingmo notice anything amiss.
Just like the message she had just sent, it was clearly intended to deceive Lin Qingmo.
What a deeply calculating woman.
Fortunately, however, this woman harbored no ill will toward Lin Qingmo; instead, she protected him at every turn and cared about everything concerning him.
She was even willing to pour out all her resources for him.
Their gazes met briefly in the air.
"Hmm?"
Their eyes clashed silently in the forest, filled with probing and wariness.
Yet, when they both happened to look toward Lin Qingmo at the same time, they instantly retracted all their hostility and sharpness, showing a rapport like that of old acquaintances.
Ah Yin ultimately chose silence.
She didn’t expose her, didn’t question her; she just quietly watched Lin Qingmo.
As long as this woman didn’t harm Lin Qingmo in the slightest.
Then the past grievances between her and Spirit Hall could be temporarily set aside.
In her heart, Lin Qingmo’s safety always came first.
Just then, Lin Qingmo, having just closed the Chat Group interface, could be heard treading on the fallen leaves in the forest, his footsteps light yet steady.
He came before Ah Yin, interrupting her swirling thoughts.
"Ah Yin, my master and I are about to leave this place. For now, stay in the Blue Silver Forest and focus on recovering your strength."
Currently, Ah Yin was still in her Spirit Beast form, with seventy thousand years of cultivation.
He could no longer recklessly keep her by his side as he did when she was weak.
It was better to let her stay in the Blue Silver Forest, nurtured by the life Origins of the entire Blue Silver clan.
With just one or two more complete life Sacrifices, Ah Yin would be able to successfully recover to her 100,000 yearsPeak cultivation.
Ah Yin’s crystalline blue figure slowly descended from the air to the ground.
Tiny stalks of Blue Silver Grass bloomed quietly beneath her feet, layering into a soft carpet of grass.
She looked up at Lin Qingmo as he walked toward her, her clear eyes filled with an inescapable tenderness and a deep sense of reluctance to part.
Her voice was as gentle as water, carrying a trace of an imperceptible sob: "Alright, I will stay in the Blue Silver Forest and recover my strength as quickly as possible."
"A-Qing, while you are out traveling, you must take good care of yourself."
"If you encounter any danger, contact me immediately through the Blue Silver Grass."
"Every stalk of Blue Silver Grass in the entire Star Dou Great Forest, and indeed across the whole continent, will transmit messages for you and protect your journey."
Ah Yin also knew that her current state was completely unsuitable for traveling around with Lin Qingmo.
By following him, she wouldn’t be able to help at all; instead, she would become a burden to him.
Only by staying in the Blue Silver Forest and using the life force of the entire Blue Silver clan to recover to the 100,000 yearsPeak as soon as possible—perhaps even making a Breakthrough to go a step further—
...could she truly stand by his side, shielding him from the elements and blocking all the overt and covert attacks.
As she finished speaking, Ah Yin’s fingertips moved slightly.
Dozens of lustrous stalks of Blue Silver Grass quietly spread out, carrying seven or eight Spirit Bones that emitted halos of different attributes, slowly presenting them to Lin Qingmo.
The Spirit Bones were dazzling in the forest sunlight, and a rich, pure fluctuation of spirit power emanated from them continuously.
Each piece shimmered with a soul-stirring halo; one could tell at a glance that their quality was extraordinary, far beyond that of ordinary Spirit Bones.
Seeing this, Bibi Dong’s brows suddenly arched.
A trace of extremely refined spirit power quietly swept over those Spirit Bones, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Among these seven or eight Spirit Bones, as many as five were above the ten-thousand-year level, and there was even one top-tier Spirit Bone nearing eighty thousand years.
Spirit Bones of this caliber would be treasured for generations as sect-protecting treasures even by the Upper Three Sects, rarely shown to outsiders.
Yet Ah Yin had just casually brought them out and given them all to Lin Qingmo.
A strong sense of competitiveness inexplicably rose in Bibi Dong’s heart.
Heh, it’s just a few ten-thousand-year level Spirit Bones.
Once she returned to Spirit Hall, she would take those top-tier Spirit Bones from the treasury—the ones starting from fifty thousand years that were kept at the very bottom of the chest—and send them all to Lin Qingmo.
As his rightful master, she couldn’t let herself be outdone.
