Chapter 41: You Don't Want Qianyue to Know......
Su Cheng came to the outside of the council hall in the Pope's Palace, pushed the door and walked in.
Bibi Dong stood by the window with his back to him.
The familiar golden papal gown wraps around the graceful figure.
Her long hair curled up to her waist and hips, and the purple and gold crown on her head reflected a dazzling arc light in the sunlight outside the window.
The Pope's scepter, which is more than two meters long, is held in the hand, and the tip of the staff is inlaid with dazzling gemstones.
At this moment, Su Cheng seemed to have the illusion of returning to the simulated world.
But the next moment he came to his senses.
This isn't the first time he's experienced returning to reality from a simulated world.
After last night's adjustment, coupled with today's relationship with Qianrenxue, Su Cheng's mentality has already adjusted to the same as usual.
Although he looked at Bibi Dong, who was completely different in front of him, the beautiful back curve inevitably made him feel a little confused, but he was able to face it calmly.
"Your Majesty, I heard you want to see me."
Bibi Dong turned his back to Su Cheng and said lightly: "I heard Elder Ju say that the secret method of absorbing soul rings has not been completely sorted out yet, is there any problem encountered?" ”
Having said that, her mood was far less calm than she had appeared.
The moment she heard this familiar voice, she felt her heart beating violently in her chest, as if it was about to reach her throat in the next moment, and her palms were unconsciously soaked with sweat.
Both anticipation and trepidation.
Even at this moment, he didn't dare to turn around and face it.
The image of Su Cheng burning himself out lingered in his mind, and the sense of despair brought by that moment was even greater than that night more than twenty years ago.
The scenes of getting along in the past resurfaced in my mind......
She didn't dare to turn around, for fear that she would accidentally reveal strange emotions.
Before the other party walked into the Pope's Palace, his heart was obviously full of joy and expectation.
But when the moment came, she flinched.
Hearing Bibi Dong's question, Su Cheng was not surprised, many days had indeed passed since the agreement between the two.
"That's right."
He bowed his head slightly, not paying attention to the other party's move with his back to him.
Anyway, Bibi Dong in the real world is like this, and Su Cheng has long been used to it.
"You may not know much about this aspect, there are subtle differences in the physical fitness, bloodline qualifications, and even soul power attributes of different soul masters, and they cannot be generalized, and they need to be prescribed the right medicine to achieve the best results.
"Of course, if you don't go for the best years, you don't have to go for it.
"However, the soul masters of the younger generation of the Martial Spirit Hall are all talented, if this is the case, it will be a bit of a waste of talent."
"I see." Bibi Dong nodded, still not turning around.
In fact, she also understands this truth.
The knowledge in those dreams is precipitated in the depths of memory.
Compared to the past, she now has a much deeper understanding of the essence of the soul master.
Even higher than the vast majority of theorists in the world.
“……”
After her words fell, there was a long silence in the hall, and the atmosphere gradually became a little awkward.
Su Cheng frowned secretly, not knowing what the situation was.
There's no way they're going to call him over for that.
Just as he was about to speak, Bibi Dong in front of him suddenly turned around.
The eyes of the two met instantly, their eyes moved slightly, but they looked extremely calm.
"Judging by her expression, I shouldn't have much memory, or at least I don't have a deep impression......"
"Does he remember me? It wasn't an ordinary dream, and it stands to reason that I shouldn't be the only one who remembers those experiences......"
Similar thoughts flashed through the hearts of both of them at the same time.
Bibi Dong lowered his eyes, suppressed the emotions stirring in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "I called you over today mainly for another matter. ”
As she spoke, she turned slightly sideways and did not continue to face Su Cheng, "You also know Qianrenxue's special situation, from today onwards, I will personally guide her cultivation, and you need to reduce your contact with her for the time being." ”
Su Cheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, almost thinking that he had heard it wrong, "What did you say?" ”
Then he felt speechless, knowing that the other party was moody, and he didn't want to cause conflicts because of this loss of words.
Hurriedly added: "Ahem, I mean, His Majesty the Pope, you just said that you want to teach Xiaoxue in person?" ”
"That's true." Bibi Dong's fingers holding the scepter tightened slightly, "Your relationship is very close. ”
"That's right," Su Cheng said calmly, "I met her when I was a student at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy before. ”
Not to mention that there is nothing to hide.
He also didn't believe that Bibi Dong hadn't investigated the situation between him and Qianyue before.
Anyway, these two people are on the same page with each other, and the other party can't control Qianrenxue, who is backed by a thousand streams behind him, so there is no need to shy away from this.
But he didn't want to, at this time, Bibi Dong looked at him sideways and sneered: "Then what's the matter with you and Zhu Zhuqing?" ”
“?” Su Cheng blinked, "What's going on?" ”
"You don't have to pretend." Bibi Dong's eyes flashed with a different color, "That little girl told me that the relationship between the two of you is not ordinary. As for what the relationship is, do you need me to tell you more about it? ”
“……”
Hearing this, Su Cheng was suddenly a little embarrassed.
He didn't know why Zhu Zhuqing was telling Bibi Dong these things.
It stands to reason that Zhu Zhuqing is not a talkative character, and the things between him and himself cannot be explained clearly in a few words.
How could she tell someone she didn't know about this.
No matter how you look at it, Zhu Zhuqing and Bibi Dong can't get together, but it's just to take her to the killing capital once.
"I'm ...... with her," Su Cheng slowly said after considering his words, "I do know her very well......"
Looking at his vague expression, Bibi Dong's emotions were a little delicate in his heart.
I was both proud and inexplicably felt a burst of sourness.
On the surface, he didn't show his face, but said coldly: "I will tell Qianyue about this." ”
“……”
When Su Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Yesterday, she just calmed down Qianyue's emotions, if she knew about this, she didn't know how many twists and turns she would have.
Especially recently is a critical period for her, and she needs to reconcile her soul problems and not be stimulated.
If this exacerbates the internal friction between the two souls, it will be even more troublesome.
And not only that, he also had other ideas, if sudden changes disrupted his plans, it would not be a joke to see blood.
“…… His Majesty the Pope, there is no need for this. Su Cheng said dryly.
"Qianyue must have told you about her relationship with me." Bibi Dong turned his head to look out the window, "In that case, why should I hide it for you?" ”
Her voice was pleasant, but the words she uttered sent chills through her heart, "Do you think it's appropriate for you to do this?" Which of them are you worthy of? Is your conscience okay? ”
“……”
Su Cheng was silent for a while.
He never expected that he would be caught by Bibi Dong one day, and he was so frightened that he couldn't speak.
As for what Bibi Dong said for the sake of Qianrenxue, he didn't believe it.
Just by virtue of the relationship between these two people, it would be good not to stumble on each other.
As long as it's not about life and death, I'm probably happy to see something wrong with the other party.
“…… How do you want to. Su Cheng sighed, a little helpless.
Of course, he could bite the bullet and not admit it.
But with Qianrenxue's current extreme temperament, she must rather believe it.
And if it wasn't a last resort, he didn't want to deny his relationship with Zhu Zhuqing.
From an angle that Su Cheng couldn't see, a smile appeared at the corner of Bibi Dong's mouth.
Then he turned around and said with a flat face: "If you join the camp of the Pope's Palace and do things for me, I will not treat you badly." ”
Speaking of this, her voice softened, and there seemed to be a flash of light in her eyes as she stared at Su Cheng.
"Su Cheng, don't think I'm forcing you, I'm also doing it for your good.
"Qian Ling Xue is the destined next Pope of the Wuhun Palace, and the only heir of the Angel Clan.
"You also know what her talent is, and now you shouldn't waste your time on falling in love."
"The next pope?" Bibi Dong's solicitation is normal, and it has not been a day or two since she and Qianyue have competed for the right to speak with each other, but the meaning expressed between the words made Su Cheng a little surprised.
"What about Hu Liena? Isn't she your own disciple and your favorite heir? ”
"Nana is not suitable to be the Pope, whether it is strength, ability or character, she is deficient." Bibi Dong said calmly.
After experiencing those memories, her repressed mental symptoms were alleviated and her thinking became more transparent.
The cognition of people and things has undergone subtle changes, and they are blended with the self in their memory.
Hu Liena is naturally not bad, but it is too far behind Qianrenxue.
Not to mention the natural strength, even if you only look at your temperament, it is too emotional, and it is more than enough to be a saint, but it is not suitable to be a pope.
Even if it is forcibly supported, it will inevitably be manipulated by Qianrenxue, no different from a puppet.
Su Cheng frowned, a little suspicious in his heart.
It doesn't feel like Bibi Dong can say it.
She simply regards Hu Liena as closer than her own daughter, can she be so counting?
And when did she become preoccupied with the future of the Wuhun Palace, is this still that madman?
At this time, Bibi Dong continued casually: "By the way, I forgot to tell you just now that Zhu Zhuqing wants to worship me as a teacher. ”
“……”
Hearing this news, the corners of Su Cheng's eyes twitched slightly.
Shocked and relieved at the same time.
No wonder, no wonder she suddenly changed her tone.
Although I don't know what Zhu Zhuqing's black-bellied little girl wants to do, what she said to Bibi Dong specifically.
But it must have taken advantage of the short time the two spent together to completely move her.
"Su Cheng, I can also see that Zhu Zhuqing's little girl likes you very much, and you also have feelings for her. In that case, why bother pestering Qianrenxue again. ”
After speaking, Bibi Dong saw Su Cheng's brows furrowed even tighter, his face was flushed with coldness, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.
He added: "Of course, I didn't think to make a choice for you, it's your own business." But now is the wrong time, can't you wait a few years? Moreover, do you think Qianrenxue will accept your half-heartedness? ”
“……”
Su Cheng understood it.
Bibi Dong has completely grasped this handle of him now, at least in the short term, he will definitely not be accommodating.
Sighing, Su Cheng retracted his expression and said, "Your Majesty, I can do things for you, but it will take some time." ”
"Why do you want to wait a while, didn't I say it, this stage is extremely important to Qianrenxue." Bibi Dong pursed his red lips lightly, not quite wanting to give up this opportunity.
Su Cheng said calmly: "Give me a year, I want to help Xiaoxue stabilize the foundation and completely eliminate the hidden dangers in the soul." ”
Bibi Dong was stunned when he heard this.
Immediately reacted, his eyes widened slightly, "Do you have a way to erase that demon?" ”
"What demons?" Su Cheng frowned, "Don't you feel it, those two souls are twins, there is no distinction between priority and subordination, I want to help her achieve that the two can exist independently to a certain extent." ”
"......" looked at his expression, Bibi Dong was stunned for a moment, then turned his gaze and said softly: "It's me who lost my words." ”
Su Cheng didn't expect her to say such apologetic words, and her expression softened.
"Her Majesty the Pope can think about Xiaoxue, and I am happy for her. By the way, are you not able to use your full strength for some reason now? ”
Su Cheng's words were more subtle.
After all, this kind of thing is private, and if it is revealed casually, I don't know if Bibi Dong will be angry because of it.
"What do you mean by that?" Bibi Dong changed his mind, but his face pretended to be displeased, and even a little gloomy.
Looking at him, he said coldly, "What are you talking about?" ”
"I just feel a little discordant and can't be sure. Although my strength is low, I can be considered a little skilled in all kinds of miscellaneous studies. If that's the case, I might be able to help you. ”
Bibi Dong was stunned.
Then he turned to the window and turned his back to Su Cheng.
After being silent for a long time, Fang said softly, "There are indeed some problems with my cultivation. ”
Su Cheng nodded, "As long as you agree to give me a year, I will find a way to help you alleviate the discord in your body when the time comes." “
“……”
The joy that had just risen in Bibi Dong's heart was instantly extinguished by a basin of cold water, and there was a burst of bitterness.
"Okay, I promise you, you can step down."
Su Cheng glanced at her back, then turned around and walked out of the Pope's Palace.
Bibi Dong didn't know, in fact, Su Cheng made this decision, not just as an exchange condition.
He has many other chips to impress the other side.
Whether it is cultivating the younger generation, or some secret methods of using spiritual power, it is enough to make their hearts move.
The reason why he chose to help her relieve the pressure on her soul and spirit was because Su Cheng really had the heart to help Bibi Dong.
Now he doesn't have much bad feeling for Bibi Dong anymore.
After the experience of the last simulated world, he already understood that in fact, the other party was the choice of the moment, whether it was talent, mind or heart.
It's just a pity that I was born at the wrong time, and I didn't meet a good teacher.
Although the growth conditions of the Martial Spirit Hall are excellent, for a genius of her level, this environment may not be the best choice.
And in the various changes that have occurred since then, apart from the parties themselves, who can really distinguish the gains and losses, right and wrong?
Perhaps at the beginning, Bibi Dong's choice was indeed her own problem.
But even earlier, Chihiro, as a teacher, did not do a good job of guiding and educating, and there was also a certain responsibility.
After the real problem occurred, he used the wrong way to remedy and retain, and the final result was a tragedy.
Eventually, one died, and the other lived in agony for the rest of his life.
After Su Cheng left.
In the chamber of the Papal Palace, only Bibi Dong was left.
She stumbled slightly, leaning on the windowsill with one hand, and barely holding on to her body by relying on the windowsill and the papal scepter in her hand.
Sweating profusely, his breathing suddenly became short, and the whole person opened his mouth like a fish out of water, desperately panting.
In the short period of time, her violent heartbeat has never slowed down.
I couldn't help but want to be tempted many times, but I always didn't dare to speak.
It was all relied on strong cultivation to suppress it, so that he didn't let himself show anything unusual.
It is only now that I finally relax, and at the same time, I have some joy and anticipation in my heart.
Su Cheng had just said that he would help her practice in the future, which made her irrepressibly recall the time in her memory.
Although she knew that there was no possibility between the two, she didn't deserve anything.
But even if you can get closer, you can spend more time together.
For her, it is already a gift from heaven.
