Chương 19: Chapter 19: Main Quest - Fourth Soul Ring
"Are you serious?" Bibi Dong's eyes flashed with curiosity.
She found herself truly unable to understand the person before her.
"Of course, I'm serious. It's settled then," Su Cheng said confidently.
Su Cheng was willing to relinquish the right to claim credit, not only to benefit the Martial Soul Hall but also to minimize his own presence as much as possible.
Having too much fame could be a hindrance if he wanted to do things discreetly.
"..."
Bibi Dong scrutinized him carefully, feeling a strange surge of emotions within her.
The ability to absorb ten-thousand-year soul rings with the fourth soul ring, and a method that could be popularized among all soul masters—how many people's cultivation limits would this forcefully elevate?
Perhaps just because of this one soul ring, soul masters who could only reach the level of a Soul Douluo before running out of potential would now have the opportunity to challenge the title of Douluo.
The difference between a ten-thousand-year soul ring and a thousand-year soul ring was not as simple as just one level.
Even with Bibi Dong's talent and strength, she couldn't help but feel a little intimidated.
She had just roughly skimmed through the contents of the manuscript, and although this method had certain prerequisites, such as having a foundation in absorbing soul rings across the year limits of the first three rings, it was still terrifying.
After all, Su Cheng had already published the methods for absorbing the first three rings across the year limits.
"Is there any flaw in your method? Or perhaps these achievements are not solely the result of your research, but rather stolen from the efforts of others?" Bibi Dong was unwilling to believe that someone could so casually give away their research achievements.
Not even her first love, her idol, Yu Xiaogang, could do such a thing.
"? "
Su Cheng was a bit puzzled at first upon hearing this.
After some contemplation, he roughly guessed at Bibi Dong's complicated emotions.
He sighed inwardly, thinking to himself that this woman was beyond help.
And too lazy to explain further, he simply bowed and said, "Think whatever you want. If you're worried about any issues, I can be the first to personally test it, but that'll take some time. If there's nothing else, please allow me to take my leave."
Seeing his reaction, a shadow of darkness flickered in Bibi Dong's eyes, and any thoughts of trying to persuade him to stay were immediately dispelled.
What she despised most right now was Su Cheng's attitude.
He appeared respectful on the surface, but in reality, he didn't care about her at all and didn't pay any attention to her feelings or attitudes, completely different from their last meeting.
The expression on her face was fleeting, and when Su Cheng glanced over, he only saw Bibi Dong's indifferent expression, returning to her original noble and cold demeanor.
"You may go," she said flatly.
...
After Su Cheng left, the vast Hall of Worship was left with only Bibi Dong.
She glanced coldly in a certain direction, then with a flick of her sleeve, her soul power surged forth, severing the prying gaze.
Just before Su Cheng left, Bibi Dong had considered offering him more benefits to sway him to her side.
But ultimately, she didn't.
Aside from Su Cheng's strong will, his calm composure even in her illusions, and his willingness to casually abandon immense fame, she simply didn't have any more leverage to impress him.
More importantly, she couldn't get past her own pride.
With Bibi Dong's arrogant personality, how could she possibly give Su Cheng another chance to reject her, especially with two spectators watching just now?
Maybe they were laughing at her right now.
In an instant, various scenes flashed before her eyes...
Qian Xunji's dirty tricks, Yu Xiaogang's resolute departure, Qian Renxue's defiance and power struggles...
Until just now when Su Cheng adamantly supported Qian Renxue.
She even regretted introducing this daughter to Su Cheng as his disciple. She thought she understood Qian Renxue, but she couldn't understand how their relationship had progressed so quickly to where it was now.
"Traitors! They're all traitors!"
Bibi Dong's voice was low and hoarse as she reprimanded, a stark contrast to her noble and regal image.
Her emotions surged, and her expression constantly changed: sometimes filled with sorrow, sometimes with resentment...
"Why... why do you all have to betray me..." she muttered.
At the same time, the infiltration of the Rakshasa's divine sense continued to deepen...
...
"Hehe, looks like our esteemed Pope is really furious. Looks like big brother's judgment was spot on. That kid is indeed impressive," chuckled the Golden Crocodile Douluo inside the Hall of Worship, relishing in Bibi Dong's distress.
"Sigh." Qian Daoliu shook his head and sighed softly upon hearing the words.
He never knew how to deal with matters related to Bibi Dong, nor did he want to kick her while she was down.
However, he was quite satisfied with Su Cheng. He patted Qian Renxue's shoulder and said, "Xiaoxue, having such a teacher like him, I can rest assured. I never agreed with your involvement in the coup d'état, so this works out perfectly. You can focus on your cultivation without any distractions."
He had always been thinking about his granddaughter's future, hoping she would inherit the position of the Angel God, and he didn't want her to be distracted by trivial matters.
However, this task was originally proposed by Bibi Dong, and Qian Renxue had agreed to it herself, so he didn't want to meddle.
Qian Renxue remained silent.
She simply stared at the light screen in front of her, her eyes twinkling with starlight.
Although the images had already been distorted by Bibi Dong's soul power, turning into a blur.
...
After returning to his room, Su Cheng, for the first time, didn't review everything that had just happened. Instead, he looked at other information.
[Main Quest - Third Ring completed.
Completion Rating: A+.
Reward: 30% increase in the final settlement bonus of the main quest.]
The third ring task had already been marked as completed when he negotiated joining the Martial Soul Hall with Bibi Dong in the Hall of Worship.
What caught his attention was the new main quest, which was slightly different from before.
[Main Quest - Fourth Ring (Optional)
1. Coalition (Task Difficulty: A)
[Use your position in the Martial Soul Hall and your prestige on the continent to unite various forces, internally and externally attacking the Martial Soul Hall.]
2. Estrangement (Task Difficulty: A)
[ Stir up discord between Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, turning them into bitter enemies.]
3. Soaring Dragon (Task Difficulty: S)
[To make it perish, one must first drive it mad. Assist the Martial Soul Hall with all your might, helping it reach greater heights.]
The ultimate goal of this life simulation is to destroy the Martial Soul Hall.
Su Cheng's initial plan was the second option, causing internal strife between the two gods and benefiting from the chaos.
However, the mission now presents two additional options, both with potential for success, leaving him in a bit of a dilemma.
Especially with the third option, the highest difficulty level, and undoubtedly the highest-level reward.
In reality, considering the current state of affairs, he already has a fair chance of succeeding in the end. Taking on a high-difficulty challenge might not be without opportunities.
His hesitation at this moment revolves around this point.
