Chapter 380 - Douluo: Emerald Poison Emperor [380]
Although Bibi Dong believed she still had feelings for Yu Xiaogang, as she looked at the disgusting figure before her, she found herself unwilling to believe that this person was Yu Xiaogang.
After a moment, she finally snapped out of her thoughts, suppressing the surging emotions within her. She ordered the Temple Knights to place Yu Xiaogang on the ground and dismissed everyone else from the room.
Looking at Yu Xiaogang, whose soul power had been destroyed and whose physical condition was frail, Bibi Dong's eyes burned with fury. Disregarding her usual composure, she approached Yu Xiaogang, placed a hand on his shoulder, and began transferring her soul power to him to alleviate his condition.
As she transferred her soul power, Bibi Dong also detected the issues within Yu Xiaogang's body.
His dantian had been shattered, and his martial soul completely dissipated. His lower body was crippled, his reproductive system destroyed, and his urinary and excretory systems rendered uncontrollable. In essence, he had been reduced to a complete invalid.
For a moment, Bibi Dong was filled with unparalleled anger. Even though she had been stuck at the Eighth Trial for years with no progress, at this moment, her resonance with the divine power of the Rakshasa God deepened further. She nearly broke through the Eighth Trial purely by relying on her malice.
However, as her anger reached its peak, Bibi Dong instead became calm, carefully assessing Yu Xiaogang's injuries. The more she examined him, the more puzzled she became.
Yu Xiaogang's dantian and lower body had been destroyed by the pure and violent power of lightning. Judging by the remnants of the energy, the lightning was of exceptionally high quality and undoubtedly originated from a top-tier Titled Douluo.
If this lightning had been infused with killing intent, it could have instantly carbonized the internal organs of a Titled Douluo. However, under careful control, it merely destroyed Yu Xiaogang's dantian and lower body. The attacker had restrained their destructive power to the extreme, even leaving a trace of energy in Yu Xiaogang's body to sustain his life.
Otherwise, given the destruction of Yu Xiaogang's martial soul and the complete collapse of his lower body, he would barely be clinging to life. Without intervention from a healing expert like those with the Nine-Hearted Begonia martial soul, he would likely be unable to move freely for years.
There weren't many lightning-attribute experts on the Douluo Continent, and the most renowned ones came from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. This kind of domineering yet precisely controlled lightning made Bibi Dong think of two people.
The patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Xiaogang's father, Yu Yuanzhen. Or the second-in-command of the clan, Yu Luomian, who had recently advanced to Titled Douluo after obtaining a soul ring and bone from the Star Dou Forest incident.
"Why would it be one of these two who took action? And why would they destroy his lower body?"
As Bibi Dong thought deeper, she was reminded of someone who had always weighed heavily on her heart—Liu Erlong.
When Bibi Dong wasn't overcome by her romantic frustrations, her analytical abilities were still sharp. With the cultivation level and mental acuity of a Titled Douluo, her mind worked quickly, and she soon deduced several possibilities, even before she fully realized it herself.
No matter how much Bibi Dong tried to avoid thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel an overwhelming sense of discomfort.
Even though her mind was spinning at full speed, nearly overheating like a CPU on the verge of burning out, her years of acting experience allowed her to maintain a calm demeanor. She withdrew her hand and spoke coldly:
"It's been a long time. I never expected you to fall to such a state."
Bibi Dong's tone was so indifferent that even she found it unsettling. But the thought of Liu Erlong made it impossible for her to show any warmth toward Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang, however, seemed unfazed by Bibi Dong's coldness. He smiled faintly as if everything was under his control.
"It's been a long time, Your Holiness. How have you been? Forgive me, a useless cripple, for disturbing you."
"Hmph," Bibi Dong snorted coldly, unsure how to respond. "You haven't contacted me all these years. Why have you come to me today? I'm no longer the same Bibi Dong I once was. I am now the Pope of the Spirit Hall. Our relationship can never return to what it was."
"I'm well aware," Yu Xiaogang said, his eyes lingering on Bibi Dong's beauty. The thought of his destroyed lower body caused his fists to clench instinctively. If he weren't so physically weak, his nails might have pierced his palms.
"Bibi Dong—no, Your Holiness—I've come to ask for something. With my martial soul destroyed, I'm already a cripple. Knowing my remaining days are numbered, I wish to request something from you."
"What is it?" Bibi Dong frowned, surprised by Yu Xiaogang's words.
Truthfully, she had assumed Yu Xiaogang had come to rekindle old feelings or ask for her help in seeking revenge. She hadn't expected him to ask for something.
Even if it were a miraculous treasure like a hundred-thousand-year soul bone, his current condition wouldn't allow him to absorb it.
Seeing Bibi Dong's confusion, Yu Xiaogang assumed she was asking what he wanted. He couldn't help but feel pleased, thinking his charm hadn't diminished over the years.
"I have a disciple—a twin martial soul genius. Over the years, I've treated him like my own child. I want him to inherit my legacy and become a great powerhouse on the Douluo Continent. For that, I need the cultivation method for twin martial souls."
"Your disciple... the one from Holy Spirit Village in Heaven Dou Empire's Nuoding City? The one with innate full spirit power and a Blue Silver Grass martial spirit, with two yellow and one purple soul rings, nearly thirteen years old—Tang San?" Bibi Dong frowned and spoke instinctively.
In her emotionally compromised state, Bibi Dong's reasoning skills were temporarily dulled, causing her to reveal information she wouldn't normally say out loud.

Upon hearing that Bibi Dong had been keeping tabs on him, Yu Xiaogang's face turned pale.
He had never expected the Pope of the Spirit Hall to have such detailed records of Tang San. If she investigated further and discovered Tang San's father was Tang Hao, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Yu Xiaogang had only sought the twin martial soul cultivation method to help Tang San grow stronger. His greatest fear was Tang San's identity being exposed. Yet Bibi Dong had essentially uncovered it with just one sentence.
"You... you knew all along? I should've known—you'd never stop watching."
Yu Xiaogang pointed at Bibi Dong, shocked at her tenacity in searching for the culprit behind Qian Xunji's death. Meanwhile, Bibi Dong thought Yu Xiaogang was surprised she had been keeping tabs on him.
"Of course, how could I not?" Bibi Dong's expression softened slightly. But before they could continue, Yu Xiaogang, gripping the chair for support, suddenly stood up in agitation.
"Bibi Dong, let me tell you this: I have no children of my own, and Tang San is like my son. If you dare harm him, don't blame me for disregarding our past!"
