Chapter 22 A Fool's Worry

Bibi Dong sneered, her eyes filled with madness, and said in a deep voice, "Playing tricks! Killing so many Title Douluos silently? I'd like to see what kind of monster he is!"

"Bang!!!"

Bibi Dong slammed the door open and stormed in angrily.

Xie Yue was terrified. "Your Holiness the Pope!!!"

Qian Daoliu pressed down on his shoulder and shook his head slightly. "It's alright. I'm also very curious about what exactly is going on with Ladio."

Qian Daoliu followed closely behind and entered as well.

Xie Yue sighed, feeling powerless.

He could only follow at the very back, saying, "Mr. Latio, I can't stop them..."

The three of them entered the room one after another.

Bibi Dong tensed up, preparing her soul power to unleash its full potential, in order to guard against any possible ambush by Radio.

But she froze after entering the room.

The room was exactly the same as before, with no extra furniture, not even tables and chairs, and bookshelves all around, filled with books.

There were no signs of a fight in the entire living room.

There are only two possibilities: either there was no conflict at all, or Ladio's strength has far surpassed that of a Title Douluo!

Bibi Dong had kept her senses active the whole time, but from the moment she spoke until now, she hadn't sensed any of Chrysanthemum Douluo's or the others' soul power.

"Ladio! Come out here, what are you doing? Stop playing tricks!"

Behind them, Qian Daoliu and Xie Yue also came in, and were extremely surprised to see the situation in the room.

Qian Daoliu pondered that even if he were in that situation, he wouldn't be able to silently suppress four Title Douluos within a limited space.

"Ladio! Come out here! Stop playing tricks!" Bibi Dong cursed like a shrew, her face contorted with rage.

The less Ladio cared about fame and fortune, the less he paid attention to this grand occasion.

The more she suffered, the more tormented she became!

The honor that Yu Xiaogang and she had dreamed of countless times but could never obtain was something that the other party treated like trash.

This sense of disparity in the world made her even harbor deep resentment towards Latio.

Why can Latio be so indifferent to these things?

Qian Daoliu frowned as he glanced at Bibi Dong; her condition was somewhat worrying.

Moreover, his malice towards Ladio was almost completely undisguised.

"Bibi Dong, calm down."

"Ladio, come out and show yourself. Give this old codger some face."

Qian Daoliu let out a soft sigh.

The next second, a blue light suddenly flew out of the bedroom, like a tiny comet, trailing a blue tail, and rushed towards Bibi Dong.

"!!!" Bibi Dong was shocked and hurriedly used her soul power to create a barrier.

The blue comet easily pierced through the soul power barrier, or more accurately, it "ate" it up, and then circled around Bibi Dong's head.

Bibi Dong raised her hand to slash a crescent-shaped blade of light at him, but her soul power was just about to condense and take shape when it was shattered in an instant!

"What is that?!" Bibi Dong exclaimed in shock and anger.

Although she cannot use her strongest power due to the inheritance of her divine position, she still possesses the strength of an ordinary level 95 Title Douluo.

How could I have been forced into such a sorry state by something so inexplicable?

Qian Daoliu hurriedly stepped forward, his holy sword flashing out to block the blue comet.

But the moment they touched, the holy sword was "burned" with a huge hole!

"Such power?! Is that your soul skill? Latios..." Qian Daoliu's face showed a look of surprise that was completely opposite to Bibi Dong's.

"I prefer to call it... Phase Flame."

A clear, magnetic voice rang out.

Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu both looked towards the bedroom, where a figure wearing a stone-carved headdress emerged.

Ladio changed into comfortable pajamas, but still maintained the same masked style.

The phase flames that revolved around Bibidon returned to the top of Ladio's head.

Only when it is relatively still does its true appearance become apparent; it is the size of a cantaloupe, with a cute but fierce appearance and triangular eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that it had just easily penetrated Bibi Dong's defenses, it would be hard to believe that this little guy possessed such power.

Qian Daoliu quickly stepped forward, grabbed Ladio's shoulder, and exclaimed in surprise:

"Hahaha, Radio! You really didn't disappoint me! You've broken through the limits of your talent, haven't you? Making several Title Douluos disappear without a trace—I'm afraid only you possess such an ability!"

"Do you know, Ladio, hundreds of thousands of people have come to see you! You should go out and enjoy the honor that comes with all your years of hard work and dedication!"

"With you like this, I have no reservations about entrusting Xiaoxue to you!"

Qian Daoliu said excitedly, genuinely happy for Ladio.

The granddaughter will become a god in the future and will be the undisputed leader of the Spirit Hall. The granddaughter's husband will break through the limits of innate soul power for soul masters, leading the Spirit Hall to a new level.

Is there anything more surprising than this?

"A farce, all sorts of troubles, in the end it's nothing more than a fool worrying about nothing."

Ladio's hood showed no emotion, and his words were utterly flat.

In his words, the so-called greatest arena of fame and fortune in history is nothing but a self-inflicted trouble for ordinary people.

"..." Qian Daoliu was stunned.

When he learned that hundreds of thousands of people had come just for Ladio, anyone who put themselves in his shoes would be overwhelmed with emotion.

However, the result did not cause the slightest ripple in Ladio's mind.

In comparison, is my mentality even worse than Latio's?

"Hypocrite! You're probably secretly overjoyed!" Bibi Dong sneered repeatedly.

Latio must be faking it!

Otherwise, no one would refuse such an opportunity to gain both fame and fortune.

Isn't this what scholars pursue throughout their lives—to leave their mark on history? Or to educate the world?

Ladio hypocritically denied it, completely lacking the honesty of Yu Xiaogang!

Her assessment was that he was not as good as Yu Xiaogang!

Ladio didn't even consider Bibi Dong; if it weren't for his cheap mother-in-law, he would have been kicked out by now.

Ultimately, having been given a second chance at life, he inevitably developed more human emotions.

They were stubborn at first but soft-hearted, and that's even more obvious now.

"Ladio, no matter what, go out and give them an explanation..." Qian Daoliu advised.

Ladio shook his head slightly. "There is a stubborn disease in this world called dullness, which is more difficult to eradicate than any other illness. Standing idly by is the true cure."

Ladio released a theory against his original intentions, but he also kept a secret, giving them the motivation to explore on their own. This was already lenient enough towards these fools.

He will continue to choose to stand by and watch, and will not break down the theoretical formulas and feed them to them.

Xie Yue looked at Ladio with a face full of adoration, the admiration in his eyes almost tangible.

As expected of a teacher!

He was able to remain calm in the face of such enormous temptations of fame and fortune!

Bibi Dong watched, her heart twisting even more.

"Hypocrisy! Hypocrisy! Hypocrisy!!!"

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!!"

The next chapter begins with teaching Bibi Dong a lesson, activating "rage mode".
