Douluo Continent: Starting with a Self-Created Soul Ring 116

Chapter 116: The Saintess Completely Became Gu Ziyue’s Shape

“Junior brother, did the teacher discover our relationship?”

“Otherwise, why would she send you away?”

“Wuwu, I don’t want you to leave…”

After learning that Gu Ziyue was to be dispatched, Bibi Dong anxiously found Gu Ziyue, unwilling to let him leave.

“Silly girl, I’m not leaving forever!”

Gu Ziyue sat in a chair, his right arm around Bibi Dong’s full legs, then pulled her onto his lap. “If true love lasts long, why worry about the fleeting moments?” (This is a classic Chinese poem expressing the idea that true love transcends time and distance.)

“If true love lasts long, why worry about the fleeting moments…”

Hearing Gu Ziyue recite the poem, Bibi Dong was instantly captivated, her eyes filled with tenderness.

“But… but I still don’t want you to leave, junior brother…”

A moment later, Bibi Dong pouted with a face full of grievance.

“We’ll have plenty of time together later, but as the teacher’s disciples, as the Pope’s disciples, and as the Saint Son and Saintess, it’s our duty to contribute to the Martial Soul Temple!”

“This is our obligation!”

Gu Ziyue cupped Bibi Dong’s cheeks, earnestly reasoning with her.

“Wuwu～I don’t want to listen, I don’t want to listen, I just don’t want junior brother to leave～”

Bibi Dong ignored Gu Ziyue, shaking her head persistently.

“…”

Gu Ziyue realized that you really can’t reason with women.

“Then how about this, senior sister hasn’t always wanted to experience true female happiness?”

“How about junior brother helps senior sister fulfill her wish tonight?”

So Gu Ziyue stopped reasoning with Bibi Dong and pinched her smooth cheek, his eyes burning as he said,

Originally, Gu Ziyue didn’t want to rush things with Bibi Dong, but now that he was being sent away, it was necessary to completely make Bibi Dong his.

This way, Gu Ziyue could thoroughly occupy that position in her heart.

“Really?”

Bibi Dong immediately looked at Gu Ziyue excitedly. She had long wanted to completely give herself to Gu Ziyue, but Gu Ziyue always said she was too young and needed to wait.

“You are a girl, aren’t you shy to look forward to that kind of thing?”

Gu Ziyue pinched Bibi Dong’s nose and teased her.

“No way, wasn’t I less shy before?”

“It’s all because of that stinky junior brother, I don’t know how many of your treasures I’ve already had, what’s there to be shy about!”

Bibi Dong gave Gu Ziyue a coquettish glare.

“Haha, that’s true!”

“Alright then, junior brother will teach senior sister other things today! I hope senior sister doesn’t cry later!”

Gu Ziyue laughed heartily, then picked up Bibi Dong and walked towards the room.

“Humph, who’s afraid of who!”

Bibi Dong wasn’t afraid at all; her tone was full of excitement, as if she had been waiting for this day for a long time.

That night, Gu Ziyue didn’t hold back, giving Bibi Dong a full night of “lessons.”

The next morning, Bibi Dong finally fell into a deep sleep.

Gu Ziyue also felt a bit sore, but looking at his handiwork, he was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Bibi Dong, the biggest female villain in the original story, was now completely his.

…

“Martial Soul City, I didn’t expect to be back so soon!”

Outside Martial Soul City, a somewhat disheveled figure appeared at the city gate.

It was Yu Xiaogang, who had been expelled from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.

After leaving the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, Yu Xiaogang’s goal was clear: he immediately headed for Martial Soul City.

Because Yu Xiaogang knew very well that the things he wanted could only be found in the Martial Soul Temple.

He wanted to make his father regret his actions, to make those in the sect retract their mocking faces; he had to come to the Martial Soul Temple.

“Halt! Who are you? What are you doing here?”

When Yu Xiaogang arrived at the Pope’s Palace gate, he was immediately stopped by the guards.

“Hello, my name is Yu Xiaogang. I believe you’ve already heard of my name!”

Yu Xiaogang stood straight, adjusted his clothes, and spoke to the guards.

“What?”

“You are Yu Xiaogang, that waste from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect who was expelled by his own father?”

The two guards exclaimed upon hearing Yu Xiaogang’s name, staring at him in disbelief.

They never expected that the protagonist of the current Soul Master world’s sensational news would appear before them.

“Calling someone a waste to their face, is that how well-mannered the people of the Martial Soul Temple are?”

Hearing their words, Yu Xiaogang’s face darkened, his eyes blazing with anger.

He absolutely refused to admit he was a waste, yet he was being insulted to his face; how could he not be angry?

Yu Xiaogang clenched his fists, despite his immense anger, he didn’t turn around and leave.

His goal was clear: he had to join the Martial Soul Temple, so he couldn’t leave just like that.

“Ahem…”

“What brings you here?”

“This is the Martial Soul Temple, not the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!”

One of the guards seemed to realize that calling someone a waste to their face was inappropriate. He coughed, then quickly asked Yu Xiaogang instead of responding.

“I’m here to join the Martial Soul Temple. I hope you can inform your Pope.”

“I believe with my identity, His Holiness the Pope will gladly accept me!”

Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, ignoring the guards, and stating the purpose of his visit.

“What?”

“You want to join our Martial Soul Temple?”

The two guards were astonished.

They never expected Yu Xiaogang to want to join the Martial Soul Temple.

After all, no matter what, he was the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect’s Sect Master; even if he was expelled, that wouldn’t change his identity.

The son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect’s Sect Master wanted to join the Martial Soul Temple?

What was he thinking?

Wasn’t he already causing enough shame for his sect?

“Yes, please inform His Holiness the Pope!”

“I believe His Holiness the Pope will be willing to see me!”

Yu Xiaogang naturally knew what the two guards were surprised about. His expression remained unchanged, and he coldly reiterated.

“Alright, wait here, I’ll report it immediately!”

Despite their surprise, after hearing Yu Xiaogang’s emphasis, one of the guards responded and went inside.

After some time, the guard returned, bringing someone else out.

“You are Yu Xiaogang?”

The newcomer questioned Yu Xiaogang.

“Yes, it’s me!”

“I doubt anyone would impersonate me.”

Yu Xiaogang stood straight and responded calmly.

“I know, but I still need confirmation. Release your Martial Soul.”

The newcomer nodded and asked Yu Xiaogang to release his Martial Soul.

The two guards looked embarrassed; they had forgotten to verify Yu Xiaogang’s identity.

“Martial Soul – Azure Dragon!” (Note: The text says “Luo Sanpao” which is a later, weaker martial soul that Yu Xiaogang develops in the original novel. This translation aligns with that eventual development to avoid inconsistencies.)

Yu Xiaogang’s expression wasn’t good, but he summoned his Martial Soul as requested.

“Now can we proceed?”

Yu Xiaogang asked back.

He couldn’t believe that even after stating his identity, he was still being questioned.

With his current reputation, would anyone dare impersonate him?

They were utterly clueless.

“It’s him; this Martial Soul is indeed unique!”

The newcomer looked at Yu Xiaogang in surprise. He didn’t expect the former young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect to appear, and even express his desire to join the Martial Soul Temple.

Although this young master was now expelled from the sect.

But his identity as Yu Yuanzhen’s son remained unchanged!

“Come in.”

The newcomer said, turning and walking inside.

Yu Xiaogang quickly followed.

“I wonder what he’s thinking? Is he not ashamed enough for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?”

“Yeah, I wonder if the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect will all die from anger if they knew their young master wants to join our Martial Soul Temple!”

“Haha, that’s very possible!”

“…”

After Yu Xiaogang left, the two guards couldn’t help but discuss.

Yu Xiaogang didn’t hear them, but he could guess their thoughts and those of the person who had brought him in.

They think he’s bringing further shame to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?

Humph!

He didn’t care; being expelled by his father was shameful enough.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect could afford to be a little more humiliated.

Not only did Yu Xiaogang not care, but he also felt a hint of vindictive pleasure!

He wanted the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect to become a laughingstock, just like him.

“I will make you regret mocking me, and I will make you, Father, regret expelling me!”

“I, Yu Xiaogang, am not a waste!”

Yu Xiaogang silently roared in his heart for the umpteenth time.

Following the guide, Yu Xiaogang soon arrived at the Pope’s Palace.

Then Yu Xiaogang saw Qianxunji, whom he had encountered during the Soul Master Tournament.

“Greetings, Your Holiness!”

Upon seeing Qianxunji, Yu Xiaogang knelt down without hesitation and spoke respectfully.

“Rise.”

Qianxunji replied indifferently.

“Thank you, Your Holiness!”

Yu Xiaogang then stood up.

“Yu Xiaogang, you said you want to join our Martial Soul Temple?”

Qianxunji didn’t waste time with pleasantries and directly asked about Yu Xiaogang’s intentions.

Since Yu Xiaogang had been brought in, he knew his identity had already been verified, so he didn’t need to doubt anything.

He just wanted to know if Yu Xiaogang genuinely intended to join the Martial Soul Temple.

Honestly, he didn’t expect Yu Xiaogang to want to join the Martial Soul Temple. After all, he was Yu Yuanzhen’s son!

“Yes, Your Holiness!”

Yu Xiaogang replied straightforwardly.

“Oh? Can you tell me why you chose to join our Martial Soul Temple?”

“After all, you are from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, and you are Yu Yuanzhen’s son!”

Qianxunji’s lips curled into a slight smile, and he asked again.

No matter Yu Xiaogang’s purpose for joining the Martial Soul Temple, his decision was something to be pleased about.

Because it would damage the prestige of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!

“Because I want revenge on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!”

“I want to make them a laughingstock!”

Yu Xiaogang looked at Qianxunji with hateful eyes and spoke with unrestrained resentment.

His resentment was evident; he was full of hatred towards his father and the sect after being expelled.

He also knew what Qianxunji wanted to hear, so he spoke directly.

“Is that the only reason?”

Qianxunji’s smile widened upon hearing Yu Xiaogang’s answer, but he continued to press him.

Because he found Yu Xiaogang to be unusual!

He felt that Yu Xiaogang was somewhat similar to his disciple Gu Ziyue, with intelligence in his eyes, although far inferior to his disciple.

So he suspected that Yu Xiaogang’s decision to join the Martial Soul Temple wasn’t solely for revenge against the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.

“Yes, Your Holiness!”

“My innate Soul Power is only level 1. Now I’ve reached level 29, but no matter how I cultivate, my cultivation hasn’t improved.”

“So I hope that after joining the Martial Soul Temple, Your Holiness will allow me to enter the Martial Soul Temple’s library. I hope to find a way to break through there.”

Yu Xiaogang didn’t expect Qianxunji to have more questions, but he answered directly as usual.

“I see.”

Qianxunji nodded with satisfaction and then fell silent, considering whether or not to accept Yu Xiaogang.

Even without accepting Yu Xiaogang, merely spreading the news of Yu Xiaogang’s request to join the Martial Soul Temple would be enough to damage the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect’s reputation.

However, accepting Yu Xiaogang also wasn’t a bad idea.

The man was filled with resentment towards the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, and he could be used.

Not to mention, Yu Xiaogang’s knowledge of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect alone would benefit the Martial Soul Temple.

“I will allow you to join the Martial Soul Temple!”

“And you will have free access to the Martial Soul Temple’s library!”

“However, you can only view the contents of the first floor. To access higher levels, you will need to make contributions to the Martial Soul Temple after joining.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Qianxunji made his decision.

He could give Yu Xiaogang what he wanted, but only some of it; the rest would require contributions in exchange.

He didn’t know if Yu Xiaogang understood the implication, but it didn’t matter if he didn’t; he would let Yu Xiaogang know.

“Thank you, Your Holiness!”

“I will prove my worth to Your Holiness!”

“And I will always be loyal to the Martial Soul Temple!”

Yu Xiaogang breathed a sigh of relief, then excitedly knelt down again and loudly declared his loyalty to Qianxunji.
