Douluo Continent: A Review of Bibi Dong, the Worst Pope in History

Chapter 148 Breakthrough to Soul Douluo, and Pick Up Xue Ke Again
With Qian Renxue's promise, Ning Fengzhi finally felt relieved.

As long as there are beautiful tulips and jasmine flowers, the Nine-Jeweled Pagoda will reappear.

This is Ning Fengzhi's lifelong dream.

If it weren't for the fact that there was only one Chiro tulip plant.

Ning Fengzhi may have a chance to break through to the Soul Saint level.

Lu Yu's side...

He is absorbing the 100,000-year soul ring rewarded by the system.

Zi Ji sensed the fluctuations in soul power and stared at the other party with curious eyes.

Lu Yu's realm has already broken through to the Soul Douluo level.

But Zi Ji was certain that Lu Yu's true strength far surpassed that of a Soul Douluo.

Even she might not be Lu Yu's match.

In the past, Zi Ji, as a soul beast, might have been wary of Lu Yu.

But now, Lu Yu has become Zi Ji's master.

Murasaki would no longer have such thoughts in her mind.

The stronger Lu Yu became, the happier Zi Ji was.

"Brother, I found someone."

Just then, Na'er's voice suddenly came from not far away.

Zi Ji looked in the direction of the sound.

There was a white-haired girl, with a fallen nobleman lying unconscious beside her.

Murasaki saw it at a glance.

The person in the coma is not a simple individual.

"Na'er, don't pick up people of unknown origin."

Lu Yu slowly opened his eyes and gave a serious reminder.

Although Na'er was also picked up by Lu Yu.

But this did not prevent Lu Yu from educating Na'er.

Is she a bad person?

Na'er looked on with curiosity.

She listens to Lu Yu very much.

However, Lu Yu usually taught her to respect the elderly and care for the young, and to do good deeds.

That's why Na'er took the initiative to pick up the unconscious woman.

Now, Lu Yu is telling her not to pick up strangers.

Na'er could only conclude that the other person was a bad person.

Lu Yu was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this.

That's quite a clever thought process.

However, he was curious to see what kind of person Na'er had picked up.

"Ziji, bring the person over here."

Lu Yu said calmly.

The next moment, Zi Ji instantly brought a woman to Lu Yu.

"This is... Princess Xue Ke of the Heavenly Dou Kingdom!"

Lu Yu sized him up.

They quickly recognized the other person's identity.

He was somewhat surprised; how could a princess of a nation have fallen to such a state?

Although Lu Yu had already heard about the turmoil in the Heavenly Dou Empire.

However, Lu Yu knew that Qian Renxue truly regarded Xue Ke as a younger sister.

Even if Qian Renxue controls the palace.

Xueke should not be harmed either.

"Master, this human is likely to cause trouble!"

"Should we just ignore it and not be bothered by it?"

Zi Ji suggested that they should not get involved in this mess.

Let Xue Ke fend for herself!

When Lu Yu took Na'er away, Zi Ji did not object because Na'er was the Silver Dragon King.

The Silver Dragon King's personality also represents the face of the dragon race and must not be insulted!
If left unattended, it will be taken away by other humans.

Who knows what they might do to Na'er.

Murasaki doesn't want that to happen.

Xueke has no connection with them.

If you bring up your identity, you'll definitely be implicated by the other party.

Although their strength allows them to face any trouble without fear.

But no one wants to be caught up in unnecessary trouble.

"Brother, are we just going to stand by and watch him die?"

Na'er looked at Lu Yu expectantly.

She was kind-hearted and didn't want to let Xueke fend for herself.

Of course, this is on the premise that the other party is not a bad person.

Lu Yu chuckled softly.

Since Na'er wants to save him, he will grant her wish.

At the same time, he also wanted to know.

How did Xue Ke end up in such a state?

Could it be that the Spirit Hall wants to eliminate the other party?

Lu Yu needed to learn more from Xue Ke.

Seeing that Lu Yu wasn't afraid of trouble, Zi Ji said no more.

Not long after...

Xue Ke slowly opened her eyes.

"I...where is this?"

Xue Ke found her surroundings unfamiliar. She immediately became alert.

Tell me what happened.

Upon seeing Xue Ke awaken, Lu Yu immediately asked her what was wrong.

"who are you?"

Xueke was like a frightened kitten.

He looked at Lu Yu with wary eyes.

Her identity is that of a princess.

Normally, Xue Ke would enjoy the spotlight and be high above everyone because of this identity.

But now, the Tiandou Palace has been embroiled in a coup.

Xue Ke's identity will only bring a lot of trouble.

Xue Ke dared not let her guard down easily.

If Lu Yu had ulterior motives towards her.

She was completely at the mercy of others.

"You don't need to be wary of me."

"If I wanted to harm you, I wouldn't have needed to save you."

"I just want to know a few things."

"This will benefit my future actions."

Lu Yu looked serious.

Na'er immediately agreed.

"Yes."

"Brother is not a bad person."

Na'er's voice carried a touch of childlike innocence and assurance.

Xue Ke hesitated for a moment.

Finally, he revealed everything.

"I am Xue Ke, the princess of the Heaven Dou Empire."

"When I learned that my most respected elder brother, the Crown Prince, was actually an imposter from the Spirit Hall, I found it hard to believe."

"I want to go find her and get to the bottom of this."

"But something unexpected happened in the palace!"

"The Spirit Hall's spirit masters control the entire palace."

"My guards realized something was wrong and immediately took me away."

"I didn't get to see her!"

"I managed to escape under the protection of the guards."

"Unexpectedly, I encountered a Soul Master from the Star Luo Empire again."

"The Star Luo Empire wanted to take me away, but I refused, so I risked my life to escape."

"But the fate of my guards is unknown."

"Perhaps they have been completely wiped out."

Xue Ke briefly recounted what had happened.

Lu Yu narrowed his eyes and quickly deduced the whole story.

The Star Luo Empire got involved.

They probably wanted to support Xue Ke and make her a puppet empress.

After all, Emperor Xueye's sons were all dead.

The only remaining bloodline is Xue Ke.

The Star Luo Empire wanted to recruit some soldiers loyal to the Heaven Dou Empire.

They would have to rely on Xue Ke's identity.

"If you go to Qian Renxue's side..."

"She might still treat you like a younger sister, just like before."

Lu Yu pointed Xue Ke in the right direction.

If Xueke doesn't mind.

You can seek protection from Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue has been an undercover agent in Tiandou for so many years, and her feelings for Xue Ke are at least genuine.

Anyway, Xue Ke can't cause any big trouble.

Staying by Qian Renxue's side and continuing to be a detached outsider who doesn't compete with the world isn't so bad.

As a result, the Star Luo Empire had no choice but to abandon its plan to utilize Xue Ke.

"I do not……"

Xue Ke took a firm stance and rejected the idea outright.

Qian Renxue attempted to seize the Heaven Dou Empire and had also deceived her about their sibling relationship for so many years.

Xue Ke will never coexist peacefully with the other party, no matter what.

She didn't believe Qian Renxue would let her go.

Even if Qian Renxue were truly willing to make an exception for her, Xue Ke herself couldn't get over that hurdle in her heart.

The two sides are enemies.

"Then what do you want to do?"

"revenge?"

"Should we rely on the Star Luo Empire, or borrow the remaining power of the Heaven Dou Empire?"

Lu Yu's words silenced Xue Ke.

To be honest, she felt very lost about the future.

Revenge is a path of no return.

Xueke was not prepared for this.

Moreover, she doesn't believe she has the ability to do so.

She was just a decorative figurehead in the royal family.

It lacks both combat strength and strategic acumen.
