Tonight was destined to be anything but peaceful.
Bibi Dong was extremely concerned about the actions of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Even more so, she kept a close eye on Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Tianchen.
The ideal outcome would be if they fought to the death with Chen Xin and Gu Rong, giving her the perfect opportunity to swoop in and take advantage of the chaos.
With a cold sneer in her heart, Bibi Dong secretly left Spirit Hall and made her way toward the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Even though she had already arranged for one of the elders to plant her spider-type surveillance soul beast on Yu Tianchen, she didn't want to leave anything to chance. She needed to be there herself.
But just as she approached within a thousand meters of the sect and was about to extend her spiritual perception across the entire area, she suddenly collided with another powerful mental force.
"You actually came?"
The familiar presence made Bibi Dong pause. She looked into the distance and narrowed her eyes.
"If you can come, why can't I?"
A calm voice answered as Qian Daoliu appeared in front of her, perfectly blocking her path.
"What, you came to oversee the Soul Hunting operation in person?"
Bibi Dong cursed inwardly. With Qian Daoliu here, it would be much harder to act against the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex.
"This operation is important enough that I should supervise it myself. Is there a problem?"
Qian Daoliu replied coolly.
He looked straight at her and said, "You and I are both here. Let's make a deal—no one takes a step forward."
Bibi Dong's pupils contracted.
"So you're helping the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex?" she asked coldly.
"Let's take a step back. You don't interfere, I don't interfere. Just watch the show unfold—what do you say?"
Qian Daoliu responded calmly.
Bibi Dong didn't speak. She simply stopped in midair, her expression unreadable—but her stillness was agreement enough.
They both knew that a fight between them now would lead nowhere. The best they could do was keep each other in check.
Her spider's transmitted data showed Yu Tianchen's stats: physical strength equivalent to level 93, soul power quality at level 87, mental strength at level 83, and more. Even Bibi Dong couldn't help but call him a monster. But at the same time, she felt relieved that she had prepared in advance. Once the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Clear Sky Clan were destroyed, she would not hesitate to eliminate Yu Tianchen.
Little did she know, the stats she saw were fake—Yu Tianchen had fed her false data. If she saw the real numbers, she would probably drop everything and strike now with all her might.
Meanwhile, Qian Daoliu's perception couldn't penetrate the defenses of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect either. The best he could do was block Bibi Dong. The rest depended on that "little monster" Yu Tianchen.

Before the battle began, Yu Tianchen and Yu Yuanzhen had a clear goal.
Kill Ning Fengzhi and eliminate Ning Rongrong.
As long as those two lived, Gu Rong and Chen Xin would remain powerful. They couldn't allow that.
Although Yu Tianchen and Yu Yuanzhen were stronger than the two elders, they needed to secure victory with minimal cost. After all, they still had to face the Clear Sky Clan and the scheming Bibi Dong.
So, months ago, Yu Tianchen began to prepare. Their assassination plan—carried out during the arranged marriage—was designed to kill Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong instantly.
In a team fight, you always take out the support first.
As the Killing God Domain spread, Chen Xin and Gu Rong's strength was immediately suppressed by ten percent. Then, six powerful figures ripped through the air—six Titled Douluo descended onto the battlefield.
They arrived just in time to see the lifeless bodies of Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong.
"Well done!"
Even the Spirit Hall elders couldn't help but admire the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex for such a flawless move.
"Spirit Hall!"
Chen Xin roared, his killing intent almost tangible. His old body shimmered with spirit power, regaining the grace and power of his youth as he summoned the Seven Killing Sword.
"So you're in league with Spirit Hall? No wonder you attacked first. Old Dragon, where's your pride?"
His sword clashed with Yu Yuanzhen's dragon claws. The impact shook Chen Xin, sending him flying backward dozens of meters. He stared in disbelief.
"Level ninety-eight?! So that's what you gained by siding with Spirit Hall?"
Yu Yuanzhen looked at the sword-wielding elder before him. Despite being stronger, he still felt uneasy—Chen Xin's sword aura was so refined that one mistake could mean defeat.
"You say nothing? Feeling guilty?"
Chen Xin's sword lit up again, blasting his aura into the sky.
But Yu Yuanzhen remained still, focused on his mission: stall Chen Xin until Gu Rong was taken down.
"Didn't you once say you wanted to spar with me?"
Yu Yuanzhen muttered.
"Let's do it, then."
While the two veterans clashed, Gu Rong was under immense pressure.
Surrounded by six Titled Douluo, even his defense couldn't hold for long. He had already activated his Martial Soul Avatar and unleashed his ninth soul skill—Bone Dragon. Without his spatial tricks and incredible defense, he would've fallen already.
Behind them, Yu Tianchen didn't move. He only maintained the Killing God Domain, and that was enough. According to the plan, everything was progressing perfectly.
But their next objective was even more dangerous—lower the Spirit Hall's Titled Douluo count. This would be their biggest obstacle.
"Bang—!"
A sudden explosion cracked the Killing God Domain. Yu Tianchen looked up. Chen Xin had activated the Seven Killing Domain, directly clashing with his own.
The two domains collided, but the quality of Chen Xin's domain was vastly superior. With deeper experience and a stronger foundation, his domain shattered Yu Tianchen's.
Yu Tianchen didn't resist. Blood flowed from his nose as he groaned and let the backlash hit him. He didn't fight it at all.
He had no intention of maintaining the domain forever. If he did, Gu Rong and Chen Xin might really die too soon. What Yu Tianchen wanted was chaos—just enough to drag as many Titled Douluo down as possible.
Releasing some pressure now was part of the plan.
To onlookers, it made perfect sense. A level 96 Sword Douluo crushing the domain of a level 78 Soul Saint? Entirely reasonable.
Wiping the blood from his nose, Yu Tianchen watched the chaos unfold.
He was more than happy to coast through the rest of the fight.
