"A pure heart bears the sun and moon; an eternal thought stirs the vast waves."
"Heh, just hearing it, I knew the answer to the riddle was Dan Heng. The so-called connection to the Sea God's inheritance must refer to Mr. Dan Heng,"
In a room filled with portraits and various items related to Dan Heng, Bibi Dong spoke as she drew her eyebrows in front of a mirror.
Behind her, Hu Liena was brushing her hair.
Looking at Bibi Dong's stunning face, Hu Liena asked curiously,
"Teacher, why would Mr. Dan Heng be connected to the Sea God?"
"Because he is Mr. Dan Heng. So, nothing is surprising."
Bibi Dong replied calmly.
Her lips curled slightly, stirring the heart, and her eyes were full of burning longing.
Her every thought was of one person only.
Back then, she had obsessed over Yu Xiaogang. Because she considered herself "tainted," she dared not love, and instead plotted to destroy the world.She even claimed she wiped out the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan for Yu Xiaogang's sake.
That alone showed her level of madness.
Now, having met Dan Heng, merely yearning for him already counted as great restraint.
Hu Liena sighed softly and said:"Teacher, aren't you a little too… obsessed with Mr. Dan Heng? After all, he's..."
Bibi Dong's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the eyebrow pencil in her hand paused mid-air."He's what?"
Hu Liena flinched and braced herself:"He… he's already married..."
Her voice grew quieter, genuinely afraid of angering Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong sneered and raised her chin:"So what? He doesn't mind my past, why should I care about his current wife? If I weren't worried about making Mr. Dan Heng sad, I'd have killed his wife already."
A murderous aura filled the air, and her eyes gleamed with cold malice.
She absolutely meant it.
(From far away, the Rakshasa God trapped beneath the God Realm: "Don't drag me into your madness!")
Hu Liena twitched slightly. Her teacher's views on love were way too extreme!
Bibi Dong grasped Hu Liena's soft hand and continued:
"Nana, you're of age to fall in love. Remember what your teacher tells you:Always open your eyes wide first and see whether a man is worthy.Once you decide he is—take him! Even if you have to trap him in a sealed room, cook the rice before the water boils!Best if you can tie him down with a child!"
She sighed, then suddenly thought:What if I let Xue'er change her surname to Dan?
Dan Xue'er…
Hu Liena smiled awkwardly, not daring to respond. She thought her teacher seemed a little... unhinged.
No way was she going to be that crazy!
Bibi Dong smiled and continued:"But you should try to get closer to Mr. Dan Heng too. The Sea God's inheritance must lie with him. Besides, we could make use of this…"
"Use what?" Hu Liena asked, confused.
Bibi Dong held her hand and smiled:"You're my most beloved disciple. Now that Xue'er's divine nature has awakened, she no longer needs a divine position. So, the Sea God's divine seat… can be my gift to you."
"Huh?"Hu Liena was even more confused.
The next day.
On the way to Lanba Academy, Dan Heng and Gu Yuena noticed the Sea God's riddle had become the hottest topic across the entire Heaven Dou City.People everywhere were discussing it.
After all, in the Douluo Continent, becoming a god hadn't been possible for tens of thousands of years.
Now that such a chance had appeared, it instantly became a matter of national attention!
Even Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire were promoting it.
They posted a public notice, inviting people to submit their interpretations.
Anyone who could solve the riddle would be rewarded.
That afternoon.
Dan Heng and Gu Yuena went together to Spirit Hall.
On the way, several people actually asked them if they'd like to join the "Sea God Research Society" or similar groups.
Many businesses on the streets had also decorated their storefronts in oceanic themes, hoping for the Sea God's blessing.
All colors had turned blue.
The more fervent the atmosphere, the more uneasy Dan Heng felt.
That flippant guy Poseidon… could he be planning something big in the end?
Carrying his doubts, he entered the main hall with Gu Yuena.
As soon as they stepped inside, two voices greeted them.
"Mr. Dan Heng…"
Mother and daughter both stepped forward in delight.
But upon seeing Gu Yuena beside him, both of their expressions subtly changed.
There was a difference: Qian Renxue wore light makeup, while Bibi Dong was clearly elaborately dressed.
Her curved brows, alluring eyes, red lips, and tight purple dress hugged her figure tightly—shaped like an hourglass.Her hips in particular looked as though they were about to explode.
"Madam is here too," Qian Renxue offered a respectful greeting.
Gu Yuena squinted slightly, casting a glance at Bibi Dong's hips—fiery and attention-grabbing.
Obviously, a woman who had given birth.
Such women had a natural charm.
In that area, she couldn't yet beat Bibi Dong—she hadn't had a child after all.
Still, this kind of seductive outfit—what was she trying to imply?
Bibi Dong squirmed slightly under Gu Yuena's gaze, feeling a chill run up her spine.
She just wanted to dive into Dan Heng's embrace to warm up.
But the next moment, an even colder aura blasted her from above, and for a second, she felt like she might die.
Qian Renxue kept her head low, not daring to say a word.
She glanced sideways at Bibi Dong and quietly clicked her tongue:
This seductive witch… deserves it!
Qian Daoliu chuckled to lighten the mood:"So, Mr. Dan Heng, shall we begin now?"
Dan Heng gave a soft hum and looked toward Qian Renxue.
"Hand me the Angelic Holy Sword, then release your martial soul. Try your best to stimulate your divine nature."
Qian Renxue quickly obeyed, fully immersed in the current atmosphere—any more chill and she might really freeze!
She handed over the sword, then retreated over ten meters.
Golden light radiated as her martial soul appeared!
The holy light warmed the frigid room.
A massive angelic figure loomed behind Qian Renxue.
Compared to last time, the face was now more defined.
One could faintly tell it was a woman.
Qian Daoliu nodded secretly—his own angel martial soul never had such facial detail.
Bibi Dong clutched her chest and edged sideways—after Gu Yuena's earlier "threat," her heart was still racing.
Dan Heng drew the Angelic Holy Sword, and the angelic projection seemed to turn its gaze toward him.
"Husband, do you have a plan?"
Gu Yuena asked curiously.
The two of them were both pretending to be ignorant, yet fully aware of each other's situation.
So—without using divine power—how would Dan Heng awaken Qian Renxue's dormant divinity?
Qian Daoliu and the others were just as curious.
Dan Heng handed the sword to Qian Daoliu and said:"I have an idea. Let's see if it works..."
The idea had only come to him after noticing the lingering divine presence left behind by Qian Yuhan.
"Do I need to do anything, Mr. Dan Heng?" Qian Daoliu asked.
"Stimulate the sword's divine essence..."
As he said this, Dan Heng suddenly pulled Gu Yuena close and kissed her lips.
