Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San as a disciple, with a ten-thousand-fold return for teaching him.

Bibi Dong has many attractive qualities. In addition to her stunning beauty and figure, her status and temperament are far beyond those of ordinary women. Her words and actions reveal a noble elegance, and she is mature and decisive in handling matters.

Don't forget, Bibi Dong is the Pope of the Spirit Hall, a leader of her generation.

Compared to making a living, Liu Erlong is indeed the best choice.

But if it's a man's ideal, it's someone like Bibi Dong, whose appearance, temperament, and status are almost impeccable.

Of course, Bibi Dong also has some imperfections. After experiencing bad things, her life was already flawed, and her personality was affected by various factors, gradually becoming twisted and crazy later on.

However, it's important to understand that there are no absolutely perfect people in this world. Everyone has a good side, and there will inevitably be a bad side as well. This is unavoidable; it mainly depends on how an individual chooses to act.

An excessive pursuit of perfection and a mindless disregard for flaws will ultimately lead to a painful abyss. Only by looking at things rationally can one live a better life.

Chen Luo was very clear about these things, and his choice was obvious: he wanted to develop this relationship while also trying to change some things.

Accompanying Bibi Dong to acquire the eighth and ninth soul rings of his second martial soul, the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor, is already a change, and it will have a butterfly effect, changing many things.

"Brothers, have you heard? Another giant sea monster has appeared near Purple Pearl Island. I heard that quite a few people have already been devoured."

Not far from the table where Chen Luo and Bibi Dong were sitting, a burly man was speaking excitedly, spitting as he spoke.

Chen Luo took notice of what the burly man said, mainly because he was quite familiar with terms like Purple Pearl Island and giant sea beast.

"Purple Pearl Island? Isn't that a pirate stronghold? It's good if more pirates die!" a thin man said, his face full of disgust when he mentioned pirates.

As he spoke, the thin man seemed to feel that it wasn't enough, and added, "Those guys don't even spare the poor; they burn, kill, and loot. They're not even human, okay?"

“Didn’t we already hear that those were just rumors? Those poor people have been receiving aid from the Purple Pearl Pirate Gang. Now that the Purple Pearl Pirate Gang has stopped providing aid, they’re spreading rumors,” the burly man said.

The skinny man curled his lip: "Pirates can't possibly have anything good. You actually believe that nonsense!"

The burly man smiled in surprise and said nothing more.

No one defended the Purple Pearl Pirates afterward; they were more interested in the sea monsters than the Purple Pearl Pirates.

"What kind of sea monster are you talking about? A powerful sea spirit beast? A sea spirit beast that's a hundred thousand years old?" a rather fat man asked.

"A 100,000-year-old sea spirit beast? Even if sea spirit beast resources are incredibly abundant, 100,000-year-old sea spirit beasts aren't something you can find everywhere, okay?" the skinny man said, seemingly particularly fond of refuting others.

The burly man said, "I'm not really sure either. I've only heard about it. They even say that the giant sea beast is the legendary Deep Sea Demon Whale King, but I don't know the specifics."

"Deep Sea Demon Whale King? Just hearing that name, I know this so-called news is a joke." The thin man smiled calmly, took a sip of wine, and had an expression of being the only one sober in a world of drunks.

No one paid any attention to the skinny man, and the conversation about the deep-sea monster came to an end. They started talking about other things, such as how a certain rich lady's figure was or how comfortable the massage was last night.

Chen Luo only heard some slightly familiar words, so after listening for a few sentences, he stopped paying attention to that side.

Bibi Dong remained calm throughout, gazing out the window, seemingly lost in thought.

The seafood feast was served quickly, and Chen Luo and Bibi Dong began to enjoy it.

With their current strength, they wouldn't have any problems even if they didn't eat for a long time. The reason they still went to a restaurant was mainly to enjoy life.

While enjoying the seafood, Chen Luo also took out his sake. He was used to the taste of the sake he often drank, and he could never get used to drinking other kinds of sake.

Chen Luo also arranged a bottle of sake for Bibi Dong, and the two ate and drank, enjoying themselves very comfortably.

Compared to Chen Luo's hearty eating, Bibi Dong ate much more elegantly, and perhaps because it was in public, she also drank from small cups.

After the seafood feast, Chen Luo and Bibi Dong headed straight for the sea.

Chen Luo chose to start from Hanhai City because he was more familiar with the route he had taken.

"Do you have a specific goal for your ninth spirit ring?"

Upon arriving at the seaside, Bibi Dong inquired about Chen Luo's plans for spirit rings.

Chen Luo said, "Anything over 100,000 years will do, and naturally the longer the better."

Chen Luo spoke rather subtly, fearing that mentioning a soul beast that was hundreds of thousands of years old would make the topic too strange.

Bibi Dong nodded slightly, then asked, "Where should we go first?"

Chen Luo said, "Purple Pearl Island, I think. I heard someone mention the appearance of a deep-sea monster while we were eating."

“Okay, let’s go,” Bibi Dong said.

"Ah."

Then Chen Luo and Bibi Dong took to the air and traveled far away from Hanhai City. Chen Luo even summoned the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon as their vehicle.

Chapter 277 Lead the Way

After entering the sea, Bibi Dong removed her mask, revealing her perfect face.

Chen Luo glanced at Bibi Dong, then took out the sea chart to check, confirming that he and Bibi Dong were heading in the right direction.

Although Chen Luo had already made one sea voyage, it was only once, and some time had passed since then. The routes on the sea were all the same, making them difficult to distinguish.

With the help of the sea chart, Chen Luo and Bibi Dong headed towards Purple Pearl Island at top speed.

The speed of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon is beyond doubt. It doesn't need to encounter weak sea spirit beasts causing trouble. The pressure released by the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon is enough to make most sea spirit beasts tremble and avoid it from afar. How could they dare to bite the bullet and come to their deaths?

In less than an hour, Chen Luo and Bibi Dong entered the island group and successfully found Purple Pearl Island.

Contrary to the rumors Chen Luo heard at the hotel in Hanhai City, the area around Purple Pearl Island was calm and peaceful, with no signs of any sea spirit beast activity.

To further verify whether powerful sea spirit beasts had appeared near Purple Pearl Island, Chen Luo and Bibi Dong went directly to Purple Pearl Island.

Purple Pearl Island hasn't changed much since Chen Luo first came here; the only difference is that the pirates have become more vigilant.

Given the strength of those pirates, they obviously couldn't detect Chen Luo and Bibi Dong's arrival. Chen Luo and Bibi Dong concealed their presence and went directly to the center of Purple Pearl Island without anyone noticing.

Compared to the outer perimeter of the island, the center of the island was much more lively. However, Chen Luo and Bibi Dong were not interested in the local customs and were heading straight for the headquarters of the Purple Pearl Pirate Gang.

Just like last time, Chen Luo went directly to the council hall of the Purple Pearl Pirate Group, but the people around him had changed. They were no longer the other two members of the Golden Iron Triangle, but Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall.

"Please sit wherever you like. The environment here is still as simple as before."

Chen Luo greeted Bibi Dongdao as if he were back in his own home.

Bibi Dong did not sit down, but slowly said, "They've arrived."

Chen Luo smiled slightly: "It's good that you're here, it saves us the trouble of looking for them again."

"Swish..."

With a series of soft footsteps, a large group of pirates rushed in. Leading them was a beautiful woman dressed in light black armor with a rather voluptuous figure. She was none other than Purple Pearl, the captain of the Purple Pearl Pirate Gang.

In terms of looks and figure, Purple Pearl can be considered above average among women, and she also has a heroic and dashing temperament, which is undoubtedly a plus.

But beauty is always measured by standards, and Purple Pearl is no match for Bibi Dong at all.

After Purple Pearl led a group of pirates in, everyone's attention, including Purple Pearl's, was drawn to Bibi Dong.

This process lasted for a few breaths, and it proved that being beautiful enough is equivalent to having a super-powerful charm.

After staring at Bibi Dong for a while, Zi Zhenzhu's gaze then fell on Chen Luo.

Just as Zi Zhenzhu was about to utter some harsh words, she suddenly knelt down before Chen Luo as if she had seen a ghost.

This situation completely baffled the pirates behind Purple Pearl, and Chen Luo was also somewhat surprised. He didn't expect Purple Pearl to be so afraid of him.

"My goodness, what are you doing here again?!"

Purple Pearl's body trembled slightly, and her voice also trembled.

Chen Luo was amused by Zi Zhenzhu's appearance: "Is it necessary to be like this? Get up quickly, I just came to ask you something!"

Purple Pearl quickly stood up, immediately relieved, and said, "Ask me anything, as long as I know it, I will definitely tell you!"

After saying that, Purple Pearl added to herself, "I would never lie to you. If I did, you can kill me directly, but please don't lay a hand on my men."

Chen Luo raised an eyebrow: "Am I that scary?"

Purple Pearl directly stated her thoughts: "The fact that you were able to come out of Seagod Island already proves that you have great abilities. Outsiders must have gone through countless hardships to get to Seagod Island. I'm worried that you will hold a grudge against me because of this, after all, I was the one who sent you there back then."

Chen Luo said, "Am I that petty?"

Purple Pearl nodded without hesitation, then immediately shook her head.

Chen Luo stopped wasting time with Purple Pearl and went straight to asking about the deep-sea monster: "I heard that a deep-sea monster has appeared near Purple Pearl Island. Is that true?"

Purple Pearl immediately shook her head: "No, our island area has always been very peaceful. Sea spirit beasts have indeed appeared, but can a thousand-year-old sea spirit beast be considered a deep-sea behemoth?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Luo felt slightly disappointed. As expected, it was unlikely that a high-level soul beast would come to such a sea area where humans frequently appeared.

As for the rumors circulating in the Hanhai City Hotel, they are nothing more than exaggerated statements.

"Are there any high-age sea spirit beasts active on the high seas recently?" Chen Luo asked.

Purple Pearl shook her head again: "As for the high-age sea spirit beasts you mentioned, they must be at least 80,000 years old. The most powerful sea spirit beast I've seen in recent years is only 50,000 years old. We are pirates who only rob people. We don't have much interest in sea spirit beasts. We will avoid some dangerous sea areas."

"Okay, got it."

Chen Luo looked at Bibi Dong: "Let's go."

Bibi Dong nodded slightly.

Just as Chen Luo and Bibi Dong were about to leave, Zi Zhenzhu seemed to remember something and quickly called out to Chen Luo.

"Ancestor, I remember now what place you mentioned about the high-age sea spirit beasts appearing near the island? It's Dark Island."

After saying that, Purple Pearl added, "I only heard about it from other pirate groups, so I don't know the specifics."

Chen Luo said, "Then lead the way."

Purple Pearl: "..."

After giving her subordinates some brief instructions, Zi Zhenzhu "willingly" led Chen Luo and Bibi Dong to Dark Island.

Chen Luo did not let Zi Zhenzhu ride the five-clawed golden dragon, but instead rode on Zi Zhenzhu's pirate ship with Bibi Dong.

Coming to this vast ocean, if you have the opportunity, taking a boat trip is a pleasant experience. Enjoying seafood, feeling the sea breeze, admiring the sea view, and having someone you love by your side is incredibly comfortable.

Purple Pearl, who was both the guide and the third wheel, was not so comfortable. Although it wasn't the first time she had led the way for Chen Luo, she was still very nervous.

Fortunately, the three of them did not encounter any accidents on the way and arrived near Dark Island in less than two hours.

"Ancestor, Dark Island is just ahead. My mission is complete. Can I go back now?" Purple Pearl asked tentatively.

Chen Luo said, "Let's go."

"Pfft!"

Purple Pearl jumped into the sea and left, just like last time when she led the way for Chen Luo, abandoning even the pirate ship.
