Chapter 265: Bibi Dong's Two Requests

  "You already have so many important women by your side. This divine position is far too precious; you should save it for them," Sea God Priestess Bo Saixi shook her head repeatedly, refusing Qin Xiao's offer.

  "Do you really have the time to think about such things now?"

  Qin Xiao was speechless. With a wave of his hand, he produced several more divine positions, holding them casually in his grasp.

  "I won’t shortchange anyone. There are plenty of divine positions for everyone."

  Bo Saixi's eyes narrowed, her heart trembling with shock.

  What exactly was Qin Xiao up to?

  How could he have so many divine positions?

  At that moment, Qin Xiao seemed less like a transcendent powerhouse and more like a street vendor hawking wares. The difference, of course, was that ordinary vendors sold trinkets, while the items in Qin Xiao’s hand were divine positions—priceless treasures coveted by countless cultivators.

  "Take this divine position," Qin Xiao said, pcing the God of Envy’s divine position into Bo Saixi's hands without allowing her to refuse. "And besides, if there aren’t enough divine positions to go around, I’ll simply take a few more by force. I’m sure I won’t ck enemies among the gods when I return to the Divine Realm."

  Qin Xiao was certain that the followers of the God of Destruction wouldn’t submit to him easily. When that time came, bloodshed was inevitable. With his fiery temperament, there was no doubt he would collect even more divine positions in the process.

  "Very well, I’ll refine this divine position," Bo Saixi said, a spark igniting in her eyes.

  It was a spark of hope.

  After all, as long as she fully integrated with this divine position and ascended to godhood, her physical injuries would no longer matter. At that point, she could remain by Qin Xiao’s side.

  "I’ll stand guard for you," Qin Xiao offered.

  In truth, the divine consciousness of the God of Envy had already been erased from the divine position. Now, it was nothing more than a pure energy source, making it entirely safe to refine and integrate.

  Time ticked by.

  Qin Xiao could clearly observe the changes taking pce in Bo Saixi.

  First, her skin regained its snow-white, smooth, and radiant texture, resembling polished jade. Then, her once brittle and lifeless hair became supple and glossy, with a vibrant blue hue beginning at the roots and quickly spreading to the tips.

  A powerful life force radiated from Bo Saixi, and Qin Xiao felt as though she had been restored to her youthful prime, looking no older than 20.

  The power of a divine position was undeniable. In just a few minutes, it had revitalized Bo Saixi completely.

  Once her physical condition was fully restored, her cultivation base began to soar.

  Previously, her failed breakthrough had left her body riddled with cracks, like a defted balloon, unable to contain soul power. Her cultivation had plummeted as a result.

  But now, everything was changing.

  Soul power once again surged through her body. In just a few breaths, her cultivation rose from the Soul Schor level to the Soul Grandmaster level.

  Moments ter, she had reached the Soul Emperor realm.

  Then came the Soul Douluo, the Titled Douluo, and even the upper levels—92, 95, 97, 99...

  And yet, this wasn’t the end.

  Under Qin Xiao’s watchful gaze, Bo Saixi’s body slowly ascended into the air.

  At the same time, a series of soul rings materialized at her feet.

  What was astonishing was the color of these soul rings—they had all turned gray.

  Without a doubt, all nine of Bo Saixi’s soul rings had become custom soul rings.

  Qin Xiao smiled faintly. "You’ve truly been reborn. Having danced on the edge of life and death, your understanding of your soul skills has undoubtedly deepened."

  Just then, another transformation occurred in Bo Saixi.

  A towering beam of light enveloped her, visible to everyone in the entire Thunder Emperor City.

  "What is that?"

  Countless people looked up, their eyes filled with confusion and curiosity.

  …

  Outside the Angel Temple.

  Qian Daoliu looked up at the beam of light, silent for a long time. However, his expression was one of relief.

  He knew he no longer needed to worry about Bo Saixi. All her problems had been resolved.

  At the Seven Treasure Gzed Tile Sect.

  Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo also gazed at the beam of light from afar.

  "Another god has been born in Thunder Emperor City," Bone Douluo said, his tone filled with awe.

  They had seen this light twice before. This was the third time.

  Sword Douluo smirked. "Old Bones, you’d better get used to it. Tomorrow’s God Ascension Ceremony might see this happen repeatedly."

  Elsewhere.

  Within a modest courtyard in Thunder Emperor City, Bibi Dong stepped out of her room.

  Staring at the skyward beam of light, a complex expression crossed her face. In a voice only she could hear, she murmured, "It seems Qin Xiao has returned. It’s time to make my decision."

  With that, she fell silent.

  …

  Atop a mountain.

  Qin Xiao’s gaze never left Bo Saixi for a moment.

  Suddenly, his eyes sharpened, and he spoke in a low voice, "The critical moment has arrived. From mortal to god—it’s happening now."

  As Qin Xiao’s words fell, the towering beam of light began to shrink, with the immense divine power returning to Bo Saixi’s body. Moments ter, a golden soul ring appeared outside her ninth soul ring, encircling the others in a radiant halo.

  “Hmm.”

  With a soft murmur, Bo Saixi slowly opened her eyes. When her gaze nded on Qin Xiao, her face immediately lit up with excitement.

  Without hesitation, she descended from the air, throwing herself into Qin Xiao’s arms.

  “Qin Xiao, I did it! I’m not going to die anymore!”

  Her voice was full of emotion, and tears streamed uncontrolbly down her cheeks, soaking Qin Xiao’s chest in no time.

  At that moment, Bo Saixi finally released the emotions she had suppressed for so long.

  Qin Xiao didn’t speak. He simply stroked her back gently, helping her calm down.

  After a long while, Bo Saixi suddenly looked up. Standing on tiptoes, she offered him a kiss.

  There, on the mountaintop, the two of them poured out their long-suppressed feelings for one another, releasing years of pent-up emotions.

  “Saixi, are you sure you don’t want to meet Erlong and the others with me?”

  “No, husband. I’m not in the best condition today. I need to rest and adjust,” Bo Saixi replied, her face flushing. “Give me a couple of days to prepare, and then I’ll meet the sisters.”

  Who could understand the struggles of a god's spouse?

  Even though Bo Saixi now possessed a divine body, the overwhelming presence of the God King had left her utterly drained.

  Hearing this, Qin Xiao didn’t insist. “That’s fine. Take your time to stabilize your cultivation here.”

  Gncing at the horizon, where the first light of dawn was breaking, Qin Xiao knew it was time for him to leave.

  “I bid you farewell, husband,” Bo Saixi said, trying to rise.

  But—

  Her entire body ached terribly, as if she were seriously injured.

  Qin Xiao quickly stopped her, a hint of awkwardness fshing across his face as he left.

  On his way to the assembly hall, a sudden voice echoed in Qin Xiao’s mind, making him pause midair.

  “It’s Bibi Dong’s voice. What does she want?”

  After a brief moment of consideration, Qin Xiao decided to alter his course and investigate.

  Before long, he arrived at a small courtyard, following the voice’s guidance.

  From the outside, the courtyard was surrounded by a low stone wall weathered by years of wind and sun. The red paint on the wooden gate had mostly faded, leaving only faint traces behind.

  The entire pce looked no different from an ordinary civilian’s home.

  “You’re here.”

  “Come in.”

  A calm voice rang out from within the courtyard—it was unmistakably Bibi Dong’s voice.

  As the words fell, a gentle breeze swept through, carrying enough force to push the closed wooden gate open.

  However, no one came out to greet him.

  Without any hesitation, Qin Xiao stepped inside.

  In the courtyard, he saw a slender figure.

  She was dressed in a simple coarse long dress, her hair tied up in a bun and pinned with a pin wooden hairpin.

  Her current appearance was strikingly simir to how Qin Xiao remembered Liu Erlong from their first meeting.

  Yet, despite the simplicity of her attire, it couldn’t hide her stunning beauty and regal aura. There were few women on the Douluo Continent who could rival her.

  After a quick gnce, Qin Xiao shifted his gaze elsewhere. After all, this was Qian Renxue’s mother. No matter how beautiful she was, staring too long would feel inappropriate.

  “What do you want from me?” Qin Xiao asked casually, gncing at the courtyard’s modest furnishings.

  It had to be said—

  The former Supreme Pontiff of the Spirit Hall was now leading an incredibly simple life.

  For someone accustomed to luxury to find contentment in such humble surroundings was rare.

  It was clear that Bibi Dong had made significant progress in her state of mind.

  “I have two requests for you,” Bibi Dong said directly.

  “Is this how you ask for help?”

  “The two things I need your help with will also benefit you in some way.”

  “Come on now. Do I seem like the type to be tempted by small gains? With the retionship we have, you can tell me what you need, and of course I’ll help.”

  Bibi Dong: “...”

  In her entire life, aside from Yu Xiaogang, Bibi Dong had never encountered anyone as shameless as Qin Xiao.

  “The first thing—I want you to give something to Qian Renxue for me.”

  “Oh? What is it? Why can’t you give it to her yourself?” Qin Xiao asked curiously.

  “It’s not that I can’t—it’s that I won’t...” Bibi Dong replied with a meaningful tone. However, she didn’t finish her sentence, falling silent instead. When it came to Qian Renxue, she seemed unwilling to say much.

  Whoosh!With a sharp sound of air being cut, a wooden box flew toward Qin Xiao, who instinctively reached out to catch it. The moment he sensed its contents, his expression shifted to one of astonishment.

  Shock was a rare emotion for Qin Xiao, yet at this moment, he couldn’t contain it.

  Because within the box was something extraordinary—a divine position.The Rakshasa Divine Position.

  “You’ve gone mad!” Qin Xiao excimed, raising his head to question Bibi Dong, his voice filled with urgency. “This divine position belongs to you! Why are you giving it to Qian Renxue? This is the foundation of your power!”

  Bibi Dong, however, simply shook her head calmly. “I don’t need it anymore. A divine position holds no meaning for me now.”

  She paused, her tone growing colder. “In fact, I can no longer find any meaning in my existence.”

  Qin Xiao was stunned. Her words, her demeanor, and her actions—everything about her screamed of someone who had lost all hope, someone who was ready to give up on life.

  “Is it true that, under the rule of the Divine Realm, there are many worlds simir to Douluo Continent?” she asked abruptly.

  “Yes,” Qin Xiao confirmed.

  “After I die, can you send my soul to one of those worlds? Let me experience a different kind of life. To be honest, if my soul remains on Douluo Continent after death, I’d rather have it obliterated entirely. I have no desire to linger in this world.”

  “This is my second request,” she continued, her voice calm but resolute. “Take this Rakshasa Divine Position as my payment.”

  She really does want to die... Qin Xiao pressed his lips together, unsure of what to say.

  In truth, he could understand her.

  Bibi Dong had endured so much pain and betrayal in her life. Her resentment toward Douluo Continent ran deep. Staying here would only bring her more suffering. Wanting to leave this sorrowful pce and start anew was entirely reasonable.

  “Is there really no way to change your mind? If you just want to explore other realms, I can help you.”

  “There’s no room for reconsideration,” Bibi Dong said firmly. “I want to start over in a different pce, forget everything from the past, and forget myself.”

  Qin Xiao was silent for a long time before he finally nodded. “I can help you with this. Three days from now, you’ll accompany me back to the Divine Realm. From there, I’ll send you to a world of your choice.”

  Hearing this, Bibi Dong was momentarily stunned.

  She had expected Qin Xiao to try persuading her, perhaps extolling the virtues of other worlds or even using Qian Renxue as an emotional argument.

  But none of that happened. His straightforwardness caught her off guard.

  Still—Perhaps this was for the best.

  Looking at him, Bibi Dong sincerely said, “Thank you.”

  Qin Xiao replied simply, “Take care.”

  As time passed, the pza before the former Supreme Pontiff’s Hall—now the Council Hall—was filled with a vast crowd. People surged forward like waves, too numerous to count.

  The night before, an important announcement had spread across Thunder Emperor City: the God Ascension Ceremony for Emperor Lei would take pce here today. What a grand occasion!

  Who could resist coming to witness such a momentous event?

  At the forefront of the crowd, near the former Supreme Pontiff’s Hall, now the Council Hall, stood numerous dignitaries.

  Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, Liu Erlong, and the retired emperor of Star Luo Empire were all present.

  In addition, Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, Ah Yin, and Dugu Yan were also among them.

  All of them stood with expectant gazes.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  A deafening thunder roared from the heavens, and streaks of purple lightning crisscrossed the sky like an endless web, stretching across the horizon.

  Yet, instead of fear, the crowd grew more excited, their fervor intensifying.

  Because they knew—Their revered god was about to descend.
