Douluo Continent: Martial Soul is the Star Forging Dragon King

Six years ago, in order to alleviate her inner pain and to escape Qian Xunji's control, Bibi Dong chose to go to the City of Slaughter for training.

On the way, Bibi Dong encountered a group of fallen soul masters attacking the village.

At that time, Bibi Dong had not yet been affected by the murderous aura of the City of Slaughter and the negative emotions brought about by the inheritance of the Rakshasa God. Although she hated Qian Xunji, she was still the kind-hearted Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall.

So, Bibi Dong killed these fallen soul masters and then found Luo Chen in the village.

His parents died at the hands of a fallen soul master, and Luo Chen was the only one who survived in the entire village.

"Thank you so much for saving my life, big sister. I will definitely repay you in the future."

Luo Chen was somewhat disappointed, as his parents were already dead and he had become an orphan in this life.

However, knowing his true identity helped Luo Chen put aside a major regret in his heart.

In his previous life, Luo Chen didn't even know who his parents were.

Luo Chen was already content with having a clear beginning in this life.

"Repay?"

Bibi Dong did not feel displeased when she heard Luo Chen call her "big sister".

On the contrary, six-year-old Luo Chen is extremely delicate and cute.

Her frail health, in particular, added to her charm and was most likely to evoke a woman's maternal love and protective instincts.

Since even Bibi Dong herself didn't refuse, Yue Guan and Gui Mei naturally had no reason to speak again.

However, the two found it strange that Bibi Dong was so easy to talk to today.

No, it should be said that Bibi Dong's preferential treatment of the child in front of her is a level of tolerance that even Hu Liena lacks.

"Xiao Chen, the reason your body is so weak..."

Bibi Dong hesitated, unsure how to begin. After several pauses, she finally decided to tell Luo Chen the truth: "Actually, it was me who caused it."

In Bibi Dong's view, Luo Chen is well-behaved and sensible, and despite fighting against illness for many years, he still maintains such a cheerful and optimistic attitude.

Although Bibi Dong is a woman who values ​​interests highly, she is also very emotional.

She felt that she was probably even worse than that beast Qian Xunji, that she would deceive such an innocent and lovely child.

"Big sister, did you cause this?"

Luo Chen looked at Bibi Dong in surprise: "Why do you say that?"

"Ugh…"

Bibi Dong was not truly cold-hearted; otherwise, she would not have treated Hu Liena as her own daughter, nor would she have sacrificed her life to protect her daughter Qian Renxue at the last moment.

"This matter is mainly my fault."

Seeing Luo Chen's weak appearance, Bibi Dong couldn't help but pat Luo Chen's head, and then recounted the story of how she first met Luo Chen.

It turns out that when Bibi Dong fought the Fallen Soul Masters, she witnessed their evil deeds and, in addition, sensed that there were no living people around, so in a fit of rage, she used the extremely terrifying Death Spider Emperor Poison.

What Bibi Dong didn't expect was that there was one child in the entire village who hadn't lost his life, and that was Luo Chen.

"Is the reason I'm unwell because I've been poisoned?"

At this moment, Luo Chen was truly dumbfounded. He had thought about what had happened between him and Bibi Dong, but he never expected it to be like this.

Shouldn't the venom of the Death Spider King be a deadly poison that kills instantly upon contact with blood?

When watching short videos on Douyin, even the two 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest couldn't stop him. How did an ordinary human child like him survive?

"I'm sorry, Xiao Chen!"

Seeing Luo Chen fall silent, Bibi Dong thought he was resenting her, so she quickly spoke up, her tone full of guilt.

It was because of her mistake that Luo Chen suffered for so many years.

Thinking of Luo Chen's first reaction upon seeing her, that expectant "Mother," Bibi Dong felt a pang of sadness: 'This child remembers me; he has always considered me his mother.'

But the truth is, she was not only not his family, but the culprit who caused him to suffer for six years.

Upon thinking of this, Bibi Dong even struggled to maintain her aloof pope persona.

"My Death Spider King Poison has no chance of surviving if anyone is poisoned by it."

"But Xiao Chen, you are still alive."

Bibi Dong held Luo Chen's hand and carefully examined his body: "I have never encountered this situation before."

To be honest, Bibi Dong had already given up on Luo Chen back then.

She couldn't save Luo Chen; the only thing she could do was send him to an orphanage and leave enough gold soul coins, hoping they would take care of the child as much as possible.

Bibi Dong also felt guilty and remorseful towards Luo Chen for a period of time.

However, the subsequent training in the Slaughter City completely immersed Bibi Dong in the battles of the Hell Slaughter Arena.

So until today, Bibi Dong believed that Luo Chen had already died.

Seeing Luo Chen now, the regret she had buried deep in her heart resurfaced, but it was even more profound than before.

"Then, sister, can you cure me of the poison?"

Luo Chen didn't blame Bibi Dong. After all, without her intervention, he probably would have died at the hands of those fallen soul masters.

He is still alive, even if he has lost his hands and feet, he is still alive.

Luo Chen would not do something that would cause resentment over a small favor.

Moreover, Bibi Dong did not do it on purpose; when she saw him again, she did not act like a pope at all.

That heartfelt concern made Luo Chen let go of his last bit of resentment.

"this…"

In this world, when it comes to understanding the poison of the Death Spider King, Bibi Dong is second to none.

Luo Chen's situation was truly beyond Bibi Dong's comprehension.

If it were anyone else, they would have died instantly from her poison, so there would be no need for an antidote.

Of course, Bibi Dong can use her martial soul to create serum for the Death Spider Emperor's poison, so as long as the other party is not dead immediately, even if they are still alive, she can detoxify them.

The problem now is that the toxins have penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and the antidote is no longer effective.

Or rather, the fact that Luo Chen was still alive was unbelievable to Bibi Dong.

"I'm sorry, I can't..."

Bibi Dong shook her head, looking at Luo Chen with a guilty expression.

Luo Chen never hurt her, nor was he her enemy; he was just an innocent child.

However, it was because of her mistake that the child suffered for six whole years.

Even though she had been betrayed by her teacher and her mind had been partially corrupted by the evil thoughts of the Rakshasa God, Bibi Dong's heart was filled with self-blame at this moment.

Thinking back on her previous plan to use Luo Chen, Bibi Dong felt that she was a truly wicked woman.

"That's all."

Bibi Dong sighed inwardly: "It's my fault that he turned out like this. I'll do everything I can to make it up to him from now on."

Bibi Dong made a decision in her heart: even if Luo Chen's martial soul quality was not high, and he could not even become a soul master, she would take responsibility and do her best to make up for his physical deficiencies so that the child could grow up safely.

"Elder Ju?"

On the other side, Hu Liena, who had been following behind the two titled elders, whispered, "Is that little brother's problem very serious? Why does the teacher look so sad?"

"The child's bodily functions have been destroyed by the toxins; it's a miracle that he's still alive."

Yue Guan was an expert in pharmacology and was the person who knew Luo Chen's condition best among everyone present. He transmitted his voice and said, "Even so, according to my estimate, he should not live past the age of 15."

"Ah? This!"

Hu Liena looked at Luo Chen with sympathy, thinking to herself that such a lovely boy should not have died young.

For a moment, Hu Liena couldn't help but feel sorry for Luo Chen.

"Even Elder Ju can't do anything about it?"

"no way."

Yue Guan transmitted his voice to Hu Liena beside him: "This is not a problem that a simple healing-type Soul Master can solve. Unless we find a rare and precious material to replenish life force, there is no solution to this situation."

"Then the teacher?"

"His Holiness the Pope must have discovered it."

Yue Guan: "His Majesty did not tell him this result, presumably hoping that he could spend the rest of his life happily."

At this point, Yue Guan paused for a moment and said, "Actually, there is another possibility."

“That is, he becomes a Soul Master and then shows enough talent,” Yue Guan said. “As long as he can break through to Soul Saint before the age of 15, he can be reborn and be reborn.”

Soul Saint and those below Soul Saint are two completely different levels of life.

Once you break through to the Soul Saint level, not only will your lifespan increase significantly, but you will also have the opportunity to undergo a complete transformation and purification.

This is also why some powerful martial souls have special abilities that awaken after breaking through to the Soul Saint level.

"15 years old, Soul Saint..."

Although Hu Liena has only just become a Soul Master, a Soul Saint at the age of 15 is simply a fantasy.

"Don't worry, Xiao Chen, I will do my best to find a way to cure you."

Bibi Dong gently stroked Luo Chen's hair. She was well aware of Luo Chen's physical condition, which made her show a tenderness she hadn't shown in a long time.

"I'm fine. I've gotten used to it over the years."

Luo Chen's illness did indeed originate from Bibi Dong, but no matter what, it was she who saved him and prevented him from being eliminated immediately upon landing.

Moreover, the gold soul coins left behind by Bibi Dong have indeed been of great help to Luo Chen over the years.

As for the fact that he wouldn't live long, he was mentally prepared for it.

Having lived two lives, Luo Chen had long since come to terms with it: "Um, big sister, are you here to help me awaken my martial soul?"

Despite his optimistic outlook, Luo Chen would never give up if he could survive!

Currently, the only thing that could potentially change Luo Chen's fate is the awakening of his martial soul: 'I don't seek twin martial souls, I only seek to awaken a martial soul with powerful vitality.'
