Chapter 221 Tell everything

(Previous chapter under review)

Previously, when Chen Yao was forced by Bibi Dong's tyranny to bathe her in the Spirit Hall, no matter how carefully he took care of her, it never took more than an hour. However, this time, they dawdled, and it was already completely dark before the two of them came out of the spring.

What happened during that time is not something I can tell outsiders.

Chen Yao helped Bibi Dong, whose body was even more limp than before, to a shady spot under a tree to sit down.

The docile demeanor of Bibi Dong, so different from her usual self, made Chen Yao's mouth water. He couldn't control himself and not only forced himself to do it, but also caused Bibi Dong a lot of trouble.

He himself could still hold on, but Bibi Dong was completely unable to withstand any more strain. She didn't even have the strength to walk, so she could only stay here for the time being to recover.

Bibi Dong, though physically exhausted, wore a look of satisfaction and dazedness, with even a hint of reminiscence in her eyes.

Compared to his cruelty and tyranny in the world without light, Chen Yao was incredibly considerate and caring in the spring.

The two formed a stark contrast, and the huge difference made Bibi Dong feel a tingling sensation all over her body, and her heart was deeply moved.

This feeling was completely different from when she forced Chen Yao in the Spirit Hall. Bibi Dong also realized how foolish she had been back then!

She was filled with remorse, but also extremely relieved. Fortunately, Chen Yao didn't hold a grudge; he just locked her in that strange place and tortured her to vent his frustrations. If he had truly cut off all contact with her, she really wouldn't know what to do.

But recalling her experiences in that dark world, Bibi Dong's expression became somewhat strange.

Although it wasn't as seamless and harmonious as it had been in the spring, the humiliation and pain of being brutally abused and whipped by Chen Yao, which initially felt frightening, now seemed to have a different kind of thrill when I thought about it carefully!

If it weren't for the fact that she was physically exhausted and mentally numb, Bibi Dong would have really wanted to pester Chen Yao to go through that ordeal again.

As for being arrogant?

Sorry, her throat is now inflamed, her lips are numb and tingly, she's completely deflated, and she's no longer willing to be stubborn.

Meanwhile, Chen Yao, observing Bibi Dong's absent-minded gaze and seemingly lost in thought, had a sudden inspiration and spoke up.

"You probably want to lead the Spirit Hall to unify the continent, right?"

Bibi Dong was taken aback when she heard this, not expecting Chen Yao to bring it up, but she still nodded.

She has been a strong-willed person since childhood, and she has extremely high standards for herself and others.

She wants to do everything perfectly.

It would have been fine if the Spirit Hall hadn't fallen into her hands, but now that it is, she is determined to develop it into the number one power on the Douluo Continent, leaving no room for dissent.

That's what she thought, and that's what she did.

There is no shortage of clever people on the mainland who can deduce Bibi Dong's thoughts from the actions of the Spirit Hall in recent years.

Therefore, Bibi Dong didn't find it strange that Chen Yao saw this.

"I will support you. With my help, your plan should be completed soon, right?"

Chen Yao then spoke up.

He really has no interest in power or anything like that; family members know their own affairs.

For him now, conquering the world is easy; he just needs to kill all those who oppose him, and he'll be the boss.

But what happens after that? After conquering the world, how do you manage the people below, how do you get them to fight for you, and how do you develop hidden weapons and soul tools? These are all problems.

He has always been a person who hates trouble and only cares about his own carefree life. If he were to be immersed in a mountain of official duties, working day and night without being able to get away, it would be better to kill him.

Moreover, if a ruler like him, who disregards human life and the lives of others, were to truly take control of the world, the entire continent would likely be plunged into misery. In that case, forget about using these people to conquer the divine realm; dealing with internal affairs would be a nightmare.

It would be better to just pass these tasks on to someone else.

Bibi Dong happens to have such ambition, talent and ability, a huge base of support like the Spirit Hall, and her prestige on the continent is now unmatched. Moreover, she is completely obedient to him. Isn't she the most suitable candidate?

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong's eyes flashed with surprise. As the person who had known Chen Yao the longest and had practically watched him grow from humble beginnings to where he is today, she knew Chen Yao's personality very well.

Chen Yao disdains things like unifying the world, which are exhilarating, so why would he want to get involved in such a troublesome matter?

Although Bibi Dong was curious, she shook her head and asked in return.

"With your help, we can indeed save some time, but not much. In fact, my Spirit Hall now has the strength to sweep across the entire Douluo Continent, but do you know why I have been developing slowly and haven't made a move yet?"

Chen Yao was taken aback, and had some guesses, but still asked.

"Because of the Demon Dragon Palace?"

Bibi Dong shook her head in denial.

"No, those inhuman and ghostly creatures in the Demon Dragon Palace, although they have some strength, are not many. If my Martial Soul Hall wanted to, it would cost some money to wipe out the Demon Dragon Palace, but there is no need."

If our Spirit Hall wants to unify the continent, besides lacking the power to do so, the most crucial factor is the support of the people.

Although my Spirit Hall enjoys great prestige among the common people, it has always existed as a religion. The Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire have existed for ages, and most people on the continent have long been accustomed to their rule. Religious beliefs can never compare to the greater good of family and country.

If my Spirit Hall were to rashly break with the two great empires and even launch an attack, it would definitely cause a huge uproar on the continent. Under such circumstances, it could very likely arouse the hostility of the entire continent.

My Spirit Hall is not afraid and can easily sweep them away, but unless all those who resist the Spirit Hall are killed, even if we conquer the kingdoms of the two great empires, the people below will definitely be outwardly compliant but inwardly resentful, which will be a great threat to the Spirit Hall's rule in the future!

Therefore, it would be better to develop slowly and secretly erode the power of the two great empires.

While the Demon Dragon Palace appears powerful, it acts cruelly and tyrannically, incurring the wrath of the people and the heavens of the continent. With the Demon Dragon Palace as a cover, my Martial Soul Palace can take the opportunity to win over the hearts and minds of the people and weaken the power of the two great empires. At the same time, it will make the people of the continent understand that the so-called empires cannot protect their safety and have long been corrupt.

When everyone on the mainland is gripped by fear and their sense of belonging to these two great empires has diminished to its lowest point, my Spirit Hall will then use forceful means to completely eradicate the Demon Dragon Palace. At that time, the people will be united, and it will be only natural for my Spirit Hall to accept the two great empires.

Bibi Dong revealed her plan to Chen Yao without reservation. Although it was meticulous, her casual manner revealed a bloody and cruel nature.

The Demon Dragon Palace is growing stronger every day, causing countless atrocities on the continent. It is outrageous. Bibi Dong clearly has the strength to destroy the Demon Dragon Palace, but for her own purposes, she wants to keep the Demon Dragon Palace alive.

If others were to hear of such a statement, it would cause an uproar and be condemned by countless people.

This also shows how much Bibi Dong is infatuated with Chen Yao, as she was able to reveal such a plan.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yao not only didn't find anything wrong with it, but nodded in agreement.

With his strength, plus Gu Yuena, he also has the power to sweep across the Douluo Continent, but why has he not made a move yet? Isn't it because he has the same concerns as Bibi Dong?

The influence of the Heavenly Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire on the common people at the bottom of society is too deeply rooted, making it a troublesome matter to deal with.

Bibi Dong's plan, which involved withdrawing the Demon Dragon Palace to draw hatred and lower the prestige of the two great empires, while the Spirit Hall would reap the benefits from the chaos, was indeed ingenious.

"Very well, then you can act according to your own ideas. If you need help, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will cooperate with you."

Chen Yao nodded and said.

"You recruited those escaped Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan disciples? So the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is also related to you?"

Bibi Dong was somewhat surprised upon hearing this. Putting aside the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus and the others, she had once visited the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School before Qian Renxue disappeared, and suspected that Chen Yao might be hiding in that school. However, due to the lack of concrete evidence and the immense influence of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School on the continent, she did not take action.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yao did indeed have a close connection with him.

However, after her initial surprise, Bibi Dong realized that she now considered herself inseparable from Chen Yao, and dwelling on the past was pointless. After a moment of calm reflection, she spoke.

"Now that the Clear Sky Sect is no longer a force to be reckoned with, and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School have been brought under our control, with the influence of these two sects and the recent weakness of the Heaven Dou Empire, it would be easy for our Spirit Hall to bring the Heaven Dou Empire under our control. However, the general plan remains unchanged. Ultimately, it will still be the Demon Dragon Hall's atrocities that will win the hearts of the people on the continent."

Chen Yao nodded upon hearing this.

"The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan was destroyed by the Demon Dragon Palace. I originally planned to destroy the Demon Dragon Palace first to win their complete allegiance, but since you have your own plan, then do as you see fit. Anyway, I've handed the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan over to you. How you make them submit is your business."

Bibi Dong had no objections after hearing this; such a thing was easy for her. Instead, she changed the subject and asked Chen Yao curiously.

"You've got the basic situation under control. Aren't you going to tell me what you want to do by integrating the forces on the mainland?"

Bibi Dong's expression was alluring, her voice soft, and her slender, boneless fingers slid across Chen Yao's chest.

Since Chen Yao needed Bibi Dong's strong support, he naturally wouldn't hide anything.

"I want to use the power of the entire continent to attack the realm of the gods."

Chen Yao spoke casually, but Bibi Dong felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She froze on the spot, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. Her eyes were full of disbelief, and she screamed at Chen Yao.

"Are you crazy?"

Chen Yao did not reply, his expression indifferent, his eyes calmly fixed on Bibi Dong.

Seeing Chen Yao's expression, Bibi Dong knew that Chen Yao was not joking and had made up his mind. However, she still felt it was a bit absurd and said with difficulty.

"Do you even know what the God Realm truly represents? Not to mention the countless third-level and second-level gods, each of whom could crush the titled Douluo on the continent, the first-level gods are even more outrageous, not to mention the five God Kings who are also in charge of the God Realm!"

Bibi Dong knew that Chen Yao possessed the inheritance of a certain deity, which was even more powerful than her own God King inheritance. Otherwise, how could he defeat her, who was at level 97, with a soul power of level 95?

However, attacking the God Realm is not something that can be calculated solely based on individual strength. Bibi Dong was very worried that Chen Yao might fall into an abyss of no return if he was not careful. With concern in her eyes, she tried her best to dissuade him.

"My mind is made up. Are you willing to help me?"

Upon hearing Bibi Dong's words, Chen Yao remained expressionless and spoke calmly.

"I'm willing, even if it means dying with you, I'd be happy!"

Bibi Dong answered without hesitation, then Mei Mouzhong's eyes darted around as if she had thought of something, and she asked curiously.

"I won't ask you why you want to attack the God Realm, but given your personality, you won't do something as risky as throwing an egg against a rock. Even if you're confident you can contend with those God Kings, how do you plan to deal with the numerous Level 3 and even Level 1 gods below?"

Chen Yao explained the concepts of hidden weapons and soul tools to Bibi Dong, and then, amidst Bibi Dong's shocked gaze, he chuckled and said...

"If the technology of soul tools and hidden weapons can be combined, it will be possible to create an invincible force that can destroy the world. At that time, any number of Soul Saints or a Soul Douluo will have the power to slay gods. At that time, will those insignificant gods still pose a threat? We will only need to focus on dealing with those God Kings. Moreover, two of those God Kings are already our people!"

"Two?"

Bibi Dong was greatly surprised upon hearing this.

"You mean me? Who's the other one?"

Chen Yao smiled and asked in return.

"Did you notice anything strange about the woman beside me when you killed her in the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong fell into thought for a moment, and then subconsciously responded.

"When I killed her, I felt a surge of life within me."

"She's still alive!"

Chen Yao grinned.

Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes widened, then she seemed to realize something and exclaimed in surprise.
