Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Heavenly Dao Umbrella, Seven Kills Annihilation

Chapter 53 Bibi Dong: He's my disciple, it's alright…

Jiang Nian's words lingered in everyone's minds for a long time.

He who eats the king's food must serve the king faithfully...

Thinking of this, Hu Liena's eyes shone with an unprecedented light.

Betrayal of the Spirit Hall?
Even Yan is possible, but it's absolutely impossible for Brother Xiao Nian!
Before she knew it, her little face was flushed, and she looked like a peach that had just ripened.

"Alright, let's eat." Jiang Nian broke the dull atmosphere, smiling as he raised his juice.

Here.

Bibi Dong listened to Hongye's report and nodded in satisfaction.

Look, this is my disciple, so young yet so enlightened.

but···
What annoyed her was why he didn't say he was loyal to the Pope.
It seems I still need to provide more guidance...
"Go down. Report back if anything comes up."

"Of course, you can't pry too much into Xiao Nian's privacy, understand?"

Hongye lowered her head strangely and replied earnestly, "Yes."

Soon, her figure disappeared into the Papal Palace.

As for Bibi Dong, she remained seated on her throne as usual.

Things were relatively better at first.

As time went on, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

He gained power, yet remained utterly alone...

No, I still have Jiang Nian.

“My head has been hurting a bit lately, how about we let Xiao Nian move in?” Bibi Dong blinked, thinking that her elegant residence was quite large.

And it's absolutely safe...

If Jiang Nian were to move in, it would seem to bring a little more life to the place.

···
Ruixue is a prosperous year.

After two months of heavy snow, the weather has warmed up, and the flowers and plants are growing even more vigorously.

Jiang Nian gently stroked the white orchid spirit and soul-gathering grass that he had planted.

I couldn't help but feel satisfied with their growth.

Then look at the century-old ginseng that Xiaobai has been taking care of day and night; it has grown quite a bit since then.

"Phew~ These medicinal herbs will speed up my cultivation once they mature."

"When breaking through to the Soul Master level, it might not be as easy as it was at the tenth or twelfth level, where you could simply cultivate and break through..."

Jiang Nian lay on the lawn, holding Xiao Bai's chubby body in his arms.

"Make it bigger."

"Squeak?"

As a mouse without any rights, I can only suffer the exploitation of a ruthless boss.

Even if you tell it to go east, it won't dare to go west.

"You little rascal, your transformation technique is quite good... If I could absorb it as a soul ring, perhaps I could inherit this ability too..." Jiang Nian muttered to himself, not looking at Xiao Bai's terrified expression.

His whole body struggled frantically, but he dared not exert any force.

Little White: "Squeak! (You're harming a loyal subject!)"

Jiang Nian patted its head and said cheerfully, "Just kidding, my fourth spirit ring will take at least ten thousand years."

Upon hearing this, Xiaobai relaxed and softened her posture.

The little paws wiped its forehead, letting Jiang Nian scratch its itch.

"Alright, you've had enough rest time. Go get back to work."

“Pick all the mature medicinal herbs; if even one plant rots, we’ll starve for three days.”

After putting it down, Jiang Nian comfortably changed his position.

Now I can finally understand the joy of those people's entrepreneurs.

That's what they mean by being hardworking and resilient...
After a moment, Jiang Nian took a sniff.

Hmm? It smells so good...

Upon opening his eyes, the first thing he saw was a pair of prison guards wearing purple glass high heels.

Then he slowly raised his gaze. Damn it!
It's a bit of a shame, there are safety shorts included...
Wait, those legs look a bit like a teacher's?
Their eyes met, and Jiang Nian quickly stood up.

In the blink of an eye, his head was almost touching Bibi Dong's mouth.

"Teacher, come here..."

"I had nothing to do, so I came to see what you usually do."

Bibi Dong instinctively reached out to touch Jiang Nian's head, but given Jiang Nian's current height...
Upon learning of his idea, he reluctantly squatted down.

"Mmm~" The young woman rubbed Jiang Nian's head with satisfaction, then gently stroked his handsome face.

Her eyes were very calm, filled only with admiration.

He sighed inwardly.

"Little New Year, in a few years, perhaps all the women in the world will secretly fall in love with you."

Jiang Nian: "..."

If this sentence isn't handled properly, it could lead to an accident.

For safety's sake, I'd better not say anything.

Bibi Dong didn't pay attention. When she touched his chin, she gently flicked his red lips with her thumb.

I don't know what emotion triggered it, but I just wanted to do it this way.

Jiang Nian was feeling a bit uncomfortable. Now that he's getting older, how could he possibly take it?

Half a minute later, Bibi Dong, who had come to her senses, trembled and pursed her lips.

She quickly withdrew her delicate hand.

What...what is she doing?
That's his own apprentice...
Turning around, Bibi Dong took a deep breath and then said expressionlessly, "Stop squatting, get up now."

Jiang Nian nodded and struggled to his feet.

As for the reason, it is indeed difficult to explain.

Harmful···

Several months ago, I started feeling groggy and drowsy after waking up.

Then I glanced at it...

Yes, it's not an empty package anymore.

“I see that your medicinal herb fields are quite large.”

“Yes… Teacher, do you remember the beauty-enhancing herb I told you about? The first batch has ripened, and I’ll take you to pick it yourself.” Jiang Nian approached Bibi Dong with a big smile.

She hummed in agreement, a smile involuntarily playing on her lips.

I've always kept in mind what this little guy said.

I came to see him today under the guise of that herb...

"Let's go, the teacher will rest today. After we finish picking, we'll go out for a walk."

"Huh?" Jiang Nian's body trembled slightly as he looked at Bibi Dong's cold and arrogant face in disbelief.

Is this...is this shopping?
Did he hear it correctly?

"What? You're not willing?" Bibi Dong frowned, her tone becoming much harsher.

That cold gaze made it seem as if a sharp sword would pierce Jiang Nian's chest the moment he dared to refuse.

"No no no!"

"Yes, it would be a tremendous honor..."

Jiang Nian smiled, flattered and somewhat surprised.

Although Bi Dongdong's murderous aura has indeed dissipated considerably compared to a few years ago, the fact that he can say such things shows that he has taken a small step forward from the past.

This is undoubtedly a very good sign for his safety.

Once I'm emotionally stable, I probably won't do anything outrageous, right?
What danger do I still face?
It's safe! It's all safe!

Bibi Dong looked at Jiang Nian's reaction with satisfaction and couldn't help but flick his high nose bridge: "I don't know if you're just trying to coax the teacher, but your attitude is alright."

Jiang Nian looked ahead with a grin, then took her arm and said, "Teacher, let me show you around."

Bibi Dong glanced at her sideways, but did not refuse.

Perhaps only he could make me not feel uncomfortable with such intimate contact...
Well, Xiao Nian is, after all, his disciple.
