Bi Bidong quickly delegated all tasks and directed representatives from the various college teams to draw lots to determine their competition sequence and opponents. After giving these instructions, Bi Bidong left the competition in the hands of a few Red-robed Archbishops and departed.
She did not need to be present for these ordinary matches.
Only the final match would require the Pope to make an appearance, as a mark of the occasion's significance.
Bi Bidong had not left, but instead was making her way through the long stream of people towards Xu Ran.
Everyone was stunned, watching Bi Bidong as she elegantly glided forward, with steps so graceful that it left people drooling. Bi Bidong, a peerless beauty, was wearing the tightly-fitting Pope Ritual Dress which immaculately accentuated her superbly developed figure to perfection.
Clearly, Bi Bidong was a woman who knew how to control her own charm. In an instant, the Holy aura about her receded, and as the divine glow faded, she exuded a feminine allure that left countless onlookers mesmerized.
"Is that Your Holiness? Worthy of being my idol. I'm literally salivating with devotion."
"Your Holiness has unmatched strength, and on top of that, she's so beautiful and has such a great figure."
Countless eyes were fixed on Bi Bidong's physique, nearly popping out of their sockets.
When Bi Bidong came to see Xu Ran, she naturally displayed some affectation, letting her womanly charms show. Perhaps even she wasn't aware that this behavior was instinctual.
She always treated Xu Ran differently from others.
Because he was very important to her.
"Damn it. It looks like Her Holiness is heading towards Xu Ran's position."
"Xu Ran, that monster, why is his charm with women so potent? Even Her Holiness..."
"What are you blabbering about? It's definitely because these people just disrespected Her Holiness, not kneeling when seeing the Pope, and she remembered that."
Some were filled with envious madness, their eyes turning red as they discussed fervently.
Xu Ran had great talent and was fortunate with women; they could only look on with envy and dare not voice their thoughts.
But this was the Pope!
Could it be that Xu Ran had done something to Her Holiness?
Being as pure and noble as Her Holiness, just imagine, having an unrestrained and delightful encounter with her—it would be sheer bliss.
Your Holiness, so beautiful in her long Pope dress, being held in an embrace, flying together in harmony. Particularly walking hand in hand with Her Holiness through Spirit City would gather countless envious and resentful stares—how exhilarating would that be?
Could it be that Xu Ran had done what they didn't have the audacity to do?
The thought vanished as quickly as it appeared in their minds. No matter how incredible Xu Ran was, he wouldn't dare lay a hand on the Pope. The Pope was the object of faith for many; to tarnish her reputation, if such an event was to happen, countless people would denounce Xu Ran.
Although Xu Ran was exceptional and a peerless talent, there was still a significant gap between his status and that of Her Holiness. Positioned high above all, she would never allow anyone to outweigh her.
Many were comforting themselves while inwardly cursing Xu Ran with all their might.
Why couldn't such good fortune fall upon them?
Could it be that peerless talents deserved special treatment? Well, it seems that is indeed the case.
Seeing Bi Bidong walking towards them, the women all became nervous. Xu Ran was a peerless talent, and they couldn't rule out the possibility that Martial Soul Hall might wish to rid themselves of him swiftly.
At the moment, with Bi Bidong directly approaching Xu Ran, their concerns naturally rose.
Xiaowu's eyes turned blood red, her mind trembling upon seeing Bi Bidong.
Xiaowu had come to the human world in her Transformed state to exact revenge for her mother. Bi Bidong had a hundred-thousand-year soul ring that once belonged to Xiaowu's mother. Having come to the human world and facing this enemy once again, she naturally could not remain calm.
Especially after seeing Bi Bidong, images of her mother's demise kept resurfacing in her mind.
"Mother. Now I have seen the enemy who killed you. With Xu Ran, he will surely avenge you."
"Xu Ran said he would surely stab Bi Bidong to death with a spear. Xu Ran's words are never empty, with his strength, Bi Bidong will have a tough time. I will make sure she suffers greatly before dying to sacrifice her life to you," Xiaowu silently vowed in her heart, her eyes brimming with tears.
Are we finally getting to that step now?
However strong Bi Bidong may be, she is still mortal, and Xu Ran even outwitted the Rakshasa God, how could Bi Bidong withstand his torment?
There is only one outcome for Bi Bidong, that is to be subdued by Xu Ran, and then await the final agony.
Bi Bidong has done so many evil deeds, this is the price she ought to pay.
"Xiaowu, don't be afraid, I will avenge your mother. Good begets good and evil begets evil. Bi Bidong will surely pay the price. Just give me a little more time," Xu Ran held Xiaowu's small hand.
At this moment, Xiaowu's palm was full of sweat, obviously very emotional.
Seeing the murderer of her mother, how could Xiaowu not hate?
"Mhm. I believe in you," Xiaowu nodded obediently. She knew Xu Ran would certainly help her.
In this world, only Xu Ran could help her.
Bi Bidong's strength is too great, even if she tried desperately, she could not catch up. Thankfully, there is Xu Ran!
"Greetings, Your Holiness." Xu Ran bowed slightly, lowering his head and inhaling the familiar fragrance emanating from Bi Bidong's body.
"Xu Ran, may we have a private chat?" Bi Bidong asked with an elegant smile.
"Of course, I'd be glad to," Xu Ran responded.
Bi Bidong nodded and walked ahead without further words.
Xu Ran followed Bi Bidong, gazing at her flowing hair. Bi Bidong's figure was perfect from behind, with a slender waist and round buttocks, her body beautifully curved.
Even with Xu Ran's discerning eye, he could not find a single flaw.
She was like a ripe apple, lusciously red, just one glance could conjure up the sweetness in the mind.
Seeing Xu Ran taken away by Bi Bidong, everyone grew more jealous. They initially thought the Pope had just whimsically wanted to speak with Xu Ran but hadn't expected her to take him away directly.
Where could she be taking him? Surely not to her private chambers?
The Pope's private chambers must smell wonderful, and if it wasn't tidied up, one might even see something they shouldn't.
Damn it!
Countless heartbroken voices arose. The departure of Xu Ran and Bi Bidong was enough to send numerous imaginations running wild.
Tang San's eyes turned colder, as he watched Xu Ran being led away by Bi Bidong, feeling an ominous premonition. Could it be that Xu Ran's mission in Martial Soul Hall was not only to take down Hulena but also Bi Bidong...
Gazing at Bi Bidong's silhouette, and her stunning figure that would be too plump with any more, or too thin with any less, it was a woman no one could ignore. Even he, sometimes, entertained such thoughts. If it weren't for the fact that Bi Bidong was his teacher's woman, he'd be struggling to resist some bold ideas.
Xu Ran, with his shameless and lecherous nature, might indeed be capable of doing such a thing.
