Douluo: Goddess Life Simulator, Qian Renxue Is Addicted

"I refuse to believe that I can't suppress this chaos! This is perfect—amidst this turmoil, the Spirit Hall shall break free from its cocoon! I will prove that Zhou Sheng'an is nothing special!"

Bibi Dong was in high spirits, sitting upright on her bed, her eyes shining brightly.

She made one choice after another, attempting to turn the tide.

The result…

[Douluo Calendar, December 13, 2024: The Star Luo Imperial Family has been completely eradicated. Star Luo declares its downfall!]

[Douluo Calendar, December 23, 2024: The Heaven Dou Empire suffers a strong invasion from Xu Jiayin of the Ideal Nation. Facing both internal strife and external threats, it fractures into two factions—Tianhun and Douling!]

[The soul masters you dispatched to gather Spirit Hall forces were ambushed en route. Less than one in ten survived. The total number of Spirit Hall soul masters is now only 3,400!]

[The Clear Sky Sect has emerged and formed an alliance with Du Bubai to retaliate against the Spirit Hall!]

[Douluo Calendar, December 31, 2023: Du Bubai declares the founding of his nation, naming it Huai Sheng, and launches an assault on Spirit City.]

"Madmen! A bunch of lunatics! Why are they targeting the Spirit Hall?! Are they idiots?! Damn it! Damn it all!" Bibi Dong trembled in fury, her body rippling like water.

She was utterly infuriated by the simulation's outcome.

Nothing was proceeding as she had envisioned!

How could simply capturing Zhou Sheng'an lead to this catastrophe?

Sure, she had always intended for revenge—against herself, against the Spirit Hall, against the entire world—but she felt indignant. The situation was spiraling out of control, and she wasn't the one orchestrating it.

"The Clear Sky Sect?! Oh, what a Clear Sky Sect! I really underestimated you!" Bibi Dong gritted her teeth. Right now, she was overwhelmed.

Once a supreme force above worldly affairs, the Spirit Hall was now no better than a stray dog!

It seemed the entire soul master world had reached a consensus—Grand Sage Master's disappearance was the doing of the Spirit Hall.

Under such circumstances, nearly every faction, intentionally or otherwise, was opposing the Spirit Hall!

And the Clear Sky Sect was at the forefront.

Spirit Hall's overall strength had been reduced to a mere fraction of what it once was!

...

The scene shifted.

Bibi Dong stood atop Spirit City's walls, gazing at the 100,000-strong army encamped in the distance. Their forces had already set up camp, fully aware of the Spirit Hall's many powerful experts, and had implemented numerous countermeasures.

For example, all their encampments looked identical, making it impossible to distinguish between soldiers and generals.

Moreover, their greatest stockpile of siege weapons consisted of catapults, cannons, and other long-range, large-scale attack equipment.

"Boom…!!!"

A blaze erupted—the assault on the city had begun once again!

Bibi Dong bellowed, "Go assassinate them! The Spirit Hall has so many soul masters—are we supposed to fear an army of mere mortals?!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo let out a bitter chuckle and replied, "Your Holiness, elders have been sent before… but none ever returned."

"What do you mean? Did they run away, or did they die?" Bibi Dong asked coldly.

Chrysanthemum Douluo shook his head. "We don't know, but one thing is certain—there are Titled Douluos among them, and quite a few at that."

Bibi Dong's face darkened. In less than a year, the Spirit Hall had fallen to this miserable state under her rule.

"Then stop probing. Just crush them outright! Our Spirit City forces may only number a few thousand, but their quality far surpasses the enemy! With soul masters assisting, we should be able to obliterate them!"

She gritted her teeth, her voice frigid.

Chrysanthemum Douluo's smile grew even more bitter as he sighed. "Your Holiness, I must inform you of something. The soul masters and soldiers within Spirit City… their hearts are not united. If they step outside, they may very well desert and never return."

"What did you say?!" Bibi Dong frowned.

Chrysanthemum Douluo continued, "It's true. The Spirit Hall has already lost the people's trust. In fact, some of the Platinum Bishops have already fled, unwilling to share in our hardships."

"And the citizens of Spirit City have stormed the Pope's Palace multiple times, demanding that we hand over the Grand Sage Master…"

As he spoke, Chrysanthemum Douluo cautiously observed Bibi Dong.

He, too, hoped she would compromise and release the Grand Sage Master.

Bibi Dong's expression turned ugly. With a cold snort, she said, "The Grand Sage Master isn't here! I don't care what you do—just hold the line! And drive those insolent fools back where they came from!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo looked awkward. If he were capable of that, he might as well be the Pope himself.

...

Bibi Dong stormed into the secret chamber.

She needed to vent her fury on Zhou Sheng'an to soothe her inner turmoil.

Inside, a woman was currently "tormenting" Zhou Sheng'an.

Per Bibi Dong's orders, he was given almost no time to rest. Though his body was robust, even he was now visibly fatigued and had grown noticeably thinner.

"Get out!" Bibi Dong frowned and barked at the woman, who was so engrossed in her pleasure that she hadn't even noticed the Pope entering.

"Pop~!" The woman sighed, gathered her clothes, and left.

Bibi Dong stared at Zhou Sheng'an's face in silence for a long time. She wanted to mock him with words, but reality slapped her in the face instead.

Bibi Dong took a deep breath and said, "Zhou Sheng'an, you're mistaken. Everything outside is peaceful. People have already forgotten about you! And Yu Xiaogang has taken your place, becoming the new Grandmaster!"

"Is that so?" Zhou Sheng'an's voice was calm.

"Of course! Do you think you're important? What a joke! In truth, your absence has had no impact on the continent's situation at all! With a mere flick of my fingers, I have suppressed everything!"

Bibi Dong sneered.

"Well then, congratulations to the Pope." Zhou Sheng'an chuckled.

"Still, you should be grateful to me. Look how carefree you are now, no longer troubled by worldly matters… Hahaha! It's truly laughable—once the Grand Sage Master, now reduced to a slave of desire."

Bibi Dong suddenly burst into laughter, but her fists were clenched tightly.

Zhou Sheng'an replied, "Not at all."

"Still stubborn! Let's see if you remain this confident after some time!"

Bibi Dong snorted coldly and left the chamber.

As soon as she stepped outside, her expression became dull and lifeless. No matter how much arrogance she feigned, it was all an illusion.

The reality was—Zhou Sheng'an truly was crucial to the world.

The era had gone completely out of control…

...

Meanwhile, Qian Renxue was occupied elsewhere, seemingly having completely forgotten about Zhou Sheng'an and Bibi Dong.

Dark Qian Renxue asked in confusion, "What exactly are you doing? This isn't your usual style."

Qian Renxue smiled. "Haven't you realized it yet? The greatest value of the simulator is to explore more possibilities for the future and gather more information. This time, I abandoned Sheng'an to investigate the internal situation of the Spirit Hall—so I can identify who can be recruited. When reality unfolds, I will know exactly whom to draw to my side!"

Dark Qian Renxue's eyes lit up. "Good! That foolish woman Bibi Dong must be in complete disarray by now."

"Who cares about her? I doubt the Spirit Hall can hold out for much longer…"

Before Qian Renxue could finish her sentence, new entries appeared.

[Douluo Calendar, January 13, 2025: The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has been overrun by an unknown force, and its wealth has been plundered clean.]
