Chapter 78 We're all women, what's there to mind?
"Those spineless cowards who dare not stand up, watching the power displayed by the Haotian Sect from below the stage, seeing the pools of blood on the stage, they will be afraid, they will be terrified."
"These people are just making a fuss because they want to gain more benefits by using the death as an excuse."
"At this point, if you distribute the pension again, you might even give 20% more than the standard amount."
"They will not hate you; on the contrary, they will be grateful and feel that His Holiness the Pope has done everything in his power."
Nan Feng extended a finger and gently tapped Bibi Dong's nose: "First intimidate, then appease; the order is absolutely crucial."
"If you give them money right away, even a mountain of gold, they will feel it's not enough. They will think you are insulting the deceased with money, that you are weak and easy to bully, and they may even ask for an exorbitant amount."
"But if you put a knife on the table first and tell them: those who want revenge, come up and die; those who don't want to die, take your money and get out of here."
"This is to drastically lower their expectations first."
"In the face of the threat of death, dignity and hatred become insignificant."
"At this point, you can offer them a slightly better deal, giving them a way out."
"They will instantly breathe a sigh of relief, feel like they've made a profit, and even be glad they didn't act impulsively."
"Just like in my handling of the Haotian Sect, I first crushed and intimidated them with absolute power, leaving them no room for wishful thinking, and then made concessions to give them hope."
"Even the Haotian Sect, which claims to be the number one sect in the world, has become spineless, hasn't it?"
"You think this is a mess simply because you haven't caught up with my thinking yet. You're still using that old logic of taking things slowly and walking on thin ice to look at problems."
"Little Dongdong, to put it bluntly..."
Nan Feng rested his chin on the top of her head, gently patting her back: "Over the years, you've lived too cautiously and too repressed in Qian Xunji's shadow. You've become accustomed to hiding yourself, accustomed to looking ahead and behind, accustomed to seeing everyone as a monster."
"Deep down, you always feel that you are not strong enough, and that one wrong step will lead to utter ruin."
"That's why you're always hesitant and timid in your actions, trying to take care of everything and please everyone."
"I don't deny that your plan is more prudent and comprehensive."
"But that would be too tiring."
"You must act like a grandson in front of Jin E, play the virtuous woman in front of the elders, and be invisible in front of Qian Daoliu."
"Having to be so cautious in everything you do, living with a mask on every day—isn't that exhausting?"
"tired?"
Bibi Dong rolled her eyes and said irritably, "I wasn't tired at first! I'm patient, I can endure it! I think as long as we achieve our goal, this little bit of hardship is nothing!"
"but!"
"I'm absolutely exhausted after all this trouble you've caused me!"
"What should have been a simple matter of using one's brain has now become a matter of using not only one's brain but also one's physical strength. I also have to be constantly on edge, watching out for your outbursts, and cleaning up all the messes you leave behind!"
"If I'm not tired, who is?!"
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I'm the one who made you suffer."
Nan Feng crawled back into bed, found a comfortable position, and hugged Bibi Dong tightly. "Since you're so tired, you should take a good rest."
"Leave this mess, which you see as a disaster, to me."
"I'll handle the conference in three days, the manipulation of public opinion, the difficulties caused by Jin E, and all those troublemakers who want to cause trouble."
"Just get a good night's sleep and recharge your energy."
"At that time, all you need to do is sit on that high papal throne, maintain your nobility and majesty, and watch me perform."
"Is that okay?"
Bibi Dong looked at him, at the rare solemnity and commitment in his eyes.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say "I'm worried," wanting to say "Don't mess it up again."
But the words that came out were replaced by a very soft sigh.
"----good."
Bibi Dong closed her eyes again, her voice growing softer and softer, filled with a deep sleepiness: "You said it yourself, if you mess this up—"
"Okay, okay."
"Go to sleep."
The candlelight flickered, and the palace gradually quieted down.
Bibi Dong's breathing gradually became steady, and her consciousness began to blur in that warm embrace, sliding towards the abyss of slumber.
However, just a second before she was about to completely lose consciousness.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind like lightning, and she abruptly opened her tightly closed eyes.
wrong!
Why is that bastard still lying in her bed?!
Although he is currently using the Spider Queen clone, his eighth soul skill, physiologically speaking, this body is exactly the same as hers, a complete woman, and essentially just a high-concentration aggregate of soul power.
but!
Regardless of its physical structure, the soul inside is that shameless male spider, Nan Feng!
Moreover, sleeping while hugging yourself is such a weird and weird feeling!
"Get down!"
Bibi Dong jabbed the wolf backward with her elbow, sending it slamming into Nan Feng's chest. She said irritably, "Go back to your spiritual sea, or go sleep on that rocking chair outside! Don't linger here!"
Nan Feng not only didn't let go, but instead wrapped his leg around her even more, like an octopus, saying, "I won't get down."
"Why should I get off? This body is half yours, so it's half mine. What's wrong with me sleeping in my own bed?"
"Besides, I'm using an avatar now, which is an energy body, so I can't do anything substantial to you."
Nan Feng pressed his face against her back with a self-righteous air, rubbing against her: "We're both women, what's there to be bothered about? Can you please stop having such a dirty mind?"
"Me, filthy?!"
Bibi Dong laughed in anger. She turned her head with difficulty and, by the dim candlelight, stared intently at the face that was exactly like hers but with an incredibly irritating expression: "Nan Feng, say that again with your hand on your heart?"
"What do you keep saying all day? I'm a soul beast, I look at humans like humans look at spiders, I'm not interested in human bodies—"
"What's the reality?"
"When you're with me, when are you not always looking for an opportunity to touch me inappropriately? If you can hug me, you won't sit; if you can stick close to me, you won't stand!"
"And don't think I didn't know about what happened back at the Haotian Sect when you were with Tang Yuehua!"
"Was that simply taking hostages? Where were your hands? Where were your eyes looking? Was that the look you gave someone looking at food?"
Bibi Dong sneered, "You bastard, you're definitely not as celibate as you claim! You're just a lecherous spider in human skin!"
Stop using racial segregation as a pretext!
"————"
Faced with Bibi Dong's soul-searching question, Nan Feng blinked, his eyes not flinching at all. Instead, he shamelessly tightened his embrace.
"That's tactics! Don't you even understand tactics?"
"That's called the power of body language! It's to make you feel my pressure!"
Nan Feng started talking nonsense, completely disregarding whether Bibi Dong believed him or not.
They had just had a fight, and the atmosphere between them had only just eased up. He was feeling insecure right now, so how could he possibly let go?
"I don't care, I'm not leaving."
Nan Feng acted like a rogue, burying his head in her long hair, his voice muffled: "How many brain cells did I lose just now because of your mess? I'm so weak now, I need to recharge."
"Besides, we just had a fight. According to human emotional logic, we should cuddle and sleep together. This is called 'arguing at the head of the bed and making up at the foot of the bed,' which helps to enhance our relationship and eliminate misunderstandings."
"If you kick me out again, it means you're still angry and don't want to settle things even."
"you----"
Bibi Dong was rendered speechless by his fallacies and heresies.
She tried to struggle, mobilizing her soul power to shake him away.
Although Nan Feng's clone was fragile, his strength was genuine. He shamelessly used his soul power to adhere to her skin, and even though Bibi Dong used force, it was like an unremovable plaster.
"Let go!"
"Don't loosen it!"
"Nanfeng!"
"Do you want me to swear on my conscience?" Nan Feng's hand began to move upwards in a restless manner.
"You scoundrel!"
Bibi Dong cursed under her breath and quickly grabbed Nan Feng's restless hand.
She stopped resisting, her body slowly relaxed, and she closed her eyes again in the embrace of this "monster".
This time, she slept very soundly.
The next day.
Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, falling onto the soft, large bed.
Bibi Dong's eyelids twitched a few times before she slowly opened them.
What came into view was the familiar palace ceiling and the empty space beside him.
-
That shameless bastard is gone.
Bibi Dong propped herself up and sat up, feeling refreshed and clear-headed like never before. The fatigue that had been building up inside her for days seemed to vanish in that one sleep.
But recalling what happened last night, Bibi Dong's lips still twitched slightly.
"That bastard—"
She really couldn't understand how this guy could be so shameless.
Which of the legendary 100,000-year-old soul beasts isn't a majestic, domineering, and incomparably proud being?
But what about the old spider?
They practically have the words "shameless" etched on their foreheads!
He'll come up with all sorts of twisted logic just to get a bed, even something like "the intimidating power of body language"—does he really think he's treating her like a three-year-old?
What annoyed Bibi Dong even more was that, because of that damned soul blood pact, she found that she really couldn't feel much hostility towards this guy.
Even when he held her last night, the sense of security that came from the depths of her soul made her instinctively want to get closer to him and want to rely on him.
But that's the scariest part.
Reason told her that this was a liar and an extremely dangerous outcast;
But her instincts told her that this was her most intimate half.
This disconnect between reason and instinct made her unable to fully trust him.
