Although Qian Xunji was blaming her, anyone present could hear the concern in her voice.

Su Mo smiled and said, "Teacher, I'm fine. Besides, Grandpa Golden Crocodile has been secretly protecting me, so I won't be in any danger."

"Don't let this happen again!" Qian Xunji said sternly, "No matter what, you must protect yourself first."

"Yes," Su Mo nodded.

Soon, Qian Daoliu examined Su Mo's physical condition again. After last night's treatment, he had recovered most of the way.

The group exchanged a few pleasantries.

Qian Daoliu said, "Xiao Mo, just rest and recover. We'll head out now."

“Okay, Grandpa Qian, take care.” Su Mo said.

Bibi Dong clearly had no intention of leaving. Qian Daoliu and the other two exchanged a glance and walked out in tacit agreement, closing the door behind them.

Suddenly, only Su Mo and Bibi Dong remained in the room.

Seeing that they had all left, Bibi Dong said:

"Junior brother, are you stupid? The other side is a ruthless fallen soul master who kills without blinking an eye, and you dared to go alone? And you've gotten yourself into this state..."

Before she could finish speaking, tears welled up in her eyes.

Chapter 22 Bibi Dong's meticulous care, two years later

Seeing this, Su Mo quickly sat up straight and comforted her, "Hey, Senior Sister, don't cry. Grandpa Qian checked me out, and I'm fine. I'll be alright after a couple of days of rest."

As he spoke, he reached out and wiped away the tears on Bibi Dong's face: "Don't cry, or you'll look like a little kitten."

"You're the little kitten!" Bibi Dong raised her hand and wiped her face haphazardly.

After a while, she calmed down, sniffed, and looked at Su Mo seriously, saying:

"Junior brother, you have to promise me you'll never take such risks again. What will I do if something happens to you?"

As she finished speaking, she lowered her head, her voice gradually softening.

"Okay, I promise you. I'll take good care of myself from now on and never worry you again."

"Talk is not enough, let's pinky swear!"

Bibi Dong extended her little finger and offered it to Su Mo.

Su Mo smiled and extended his little finger to hook it with hers.

"Alright, junior brother, now lie still and don't move!" Bibi Dong said with a stern face.

She wanted to press Su Mo back onto the bed.

Su Mo could only go along with her and smiled helplessly: "Senior sister, I'm just a little injured, it's not like my leg is broken."

"That won't do!" Bibi Dong glared at him. "I'll go get you some food. Wait here!"

Su Mo watched Bibi Dong's hurried departure and shook his head helplessly: "That girl."

Before long, Bibi Dong brought out a beautiful breakfast and personally fed Su Mo.

After taking a few bites, she picked up a water glass from the side and said, "Be careful not to choke. Here, have some water."

After they finished eating, Bibi Dong took care of Su Mo and chatted with him.

When the maid brought the carefully prepared medicine, Bibi Dong took the medicine and dismissed the maid, insisting on feeding Su Mo herself.

"Ah—open your mouth." She scooped up a spoonful, blew on it gently, and then held it to Su Mo's lips.

"Senior sister, I can do it myself..." Su Mo said with an embarrassed smile.

"No!" Bibi Dong was adamant, and pushed the spoon forward a little further. "Drink it quickly, so you can get better sooner."

Su Mo couldn't refuse her, so he had no choice but to obediently open his mouth.

After finishing the bowl of medicine, Bibi Dong looked at the empty bowl and nodded with satisfaction: "Junior brother is so good. You've finished your medicine, lie down now."

Su Mo: "..."

He felt a pang of unease; these words sounded like an adult coaxing a child.

That day, Bibi Dong didn't go anywhere; she stayed in Su Mo's room.

That night, she fell asleep next to Su Mo, just like always.

……

Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

At the entrance of the Papal Palace in Wuhun City.

A young boy and girl stood side by side; it was Su Mo and Bibi Dong.

Now, Su Mo has grown much taller, with an upright posture, and his face has lost its former childishness, becoming even more handsome.

Bibi Dong, standing beside him, had also grown into a graceful and beautiful young woman.

Her body gradually developed, and her curves began to appear; she was no longer the ordinary little girl she once was.

For the past two years, Su Mo has never left Wuhun City.

After recovering from his injuries, he resumed an extremely regular life, practicing swordsmanship alone in the morning, sparring with the Soul Masters of the Spirit Hall in the afternoon, and cultivating in seclusion at night.

Sometimes, he would spar with Bibi Dong, or they would go to the Spirit Hall's library together to read quietly for a while.

It is worth mentioning that Bibi Dong's soul power has now reached the level of a level 26 Great Soul Master.

Her second spirit ring was over a thousand years old.

When Su Mo absorbed his second spirit ring, he had only recently awakened his spirit, and his physical condition was far inferior to what it is now. In contrast, Bibi Dong had consumed a lot of high-quality whale glue in recent years thanks to the resources allocated by the Spirit Hall, and her physical condition had already improved significantly.

Therefore, obtaining this second soul ring after a thousand years is no longer a difficult task for her.

The two exchanged a glance and stepped into the solemn and majestic Papal Palace.

Inside the main hall.

"Disciple Su Mo greets Master."

“Disciple Bibi Dong greets Master.”

The two bowed respectfully, their voices echoing in the hall.

Qian Xunji stopped grading the academic papers and looked up.

Looking at his two increasingly outstanding children, his eyes were filled with satisfaction, and he smiled slightly:

"Xiao Mo, Dong'er, why did you suddenly decide to come see your teacher? Have you encountered any difficulties in your cultivation?"

Su Mo straightened up and said with a firm gaze, "Teacher, we want to go out for a walk and gain some experience."

His true purpose for this trip was to find the Yin-Yang Well of Sunset Forest.

Now, his soul power level has broken through to the peak of level thirty-nine, only one step away from becoming a Soul Master.

He could break through at any time, but he has been suppressing it.

He planned to break through his limits after arriving in Tiandou City, and then naturally head to Sunset Forest outside the city to hunt for his fourth soul ring. During that process, he accidentally discovered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

As for Bibi Dong, who was by his side, she insisted on going with him when she heard that Su Mo was going out to train.

Su Mo couldn't refuse her, so he simply took her with him to the Papal Palace.

"Experience?" Qian Xunji raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, then pondered for a moment.

Given how much his father values ​​Su Mo, there's a high probability he'll bring Uncle Golden Crocodile along again.

Now that Su Mo and Bibi Dong have developed a certain ability to protect themselves, and with him by their side, nothing serious should happen.

Apart from his father and Tang Chen of the Haotian Sect, who on the entire continent can rival him?

Thinking of this, Qian Xunji nodded and said:

"Sure. You've lived in Spirit City since you were little, so it's definitely time for you to go out and see the world. However, the outside world isn't as safe as Spirit City."

Today, the teacher will discuss with the High Priest whether to send an elder from the Hall of Offerings or the Hall of Elders to provide covert protection. You may depart tomorrow.

Su Mo cupped his hands and said, "Yes, thank you for your kindness, teacher!"

Bibi Dong, standing to the side, also smiled happily: "Thank you, teacher!"

Qian Xunji looked at the two of them, shook his head helplessly, and smiled, "Go on, go back and pack your bags. Remember, safety first."

"As ordered!"

The two bowed again, then turned and left the main hall.

Stepping out of the main hall into the warm sunlight, Bibi Dong turned to Su Mo and asked, "Junior Brother, where are we going to train?"

Su Mo's lips curled into a mysterious smile: "The Heaven Dou Empire, perhaps."

Bibi Dong nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll go with you wherever you go."

"Let's go back and pack our things quickly."

Bibi Dong gave a soft "hmm," took Su Mo's arm, and headed towards their residence.

……

The next morning.

A luxurious carriage drove out of the city gate, its wheels rolling over the bluestone pavement with a dull, rhythmic sound.

The carriage sped off towards the Heavenly Dou Empire.

As expected, Qian Daoliu once again dispatched Golden Crocodile Douluo.

He was sitting upright in the driver's seat, his breathing restrained, just like an ordinary old man.

Chapter 23 Sunset Forest, Thousand-Year-Old Soul Bones

A month later.

Twenty miles outside the Heavenly Dou Imperial City, on a wide official road, a luxuriously decorated carriage was traveling smoothly.

It was Su Mo and his group who, after leaving Wuhun City, did not rush on their way. They made short stops in every town along the way to experience the local customs and culture, taste the local delicacies, and take a short rest.
