The person was none other than Bibi Dong, and standing beside her was a beautiful young woman with short yellow hair, dressed in a black dress. She stood gracefully, her eyes brimming with seductive charm — she was Hu Liena.
There was no one else around them.
This time, Bibi Dong had come to the Star Dou Forest to help Hu Liena obtain her fifth spirit ring.
The reason they came alone without an entourage was because Bibi Dong wanted to personally teach Hu Liena a few things.
Suddenly, she sensed someone's presence nearby.
"Eh? There's someone nearby!"Bibi Dong immediately warned Hu Liena.
"Roar..."Suddenly, a leopard sprang out from the side, lunging straight toward Zhang Fan. It was actually a 10,000-year spirit beast!
Zhang Fan had just been admiring Bibi Dong's breathtaking beauty and almost didn't notice the danger. He quickly reacted with a sharp thought:
"Whoosh..."
Using Divine Demon Steps, he dodged the leopard's strike.
"Buzz..."
Under his feet, spirit rings slowly rose — four black spirit rings shining brilliantly.
"Clang..."A flash of purple sword light streaked past, slicing through the leopard spirit beast instantly.
"Sizzle..."Purple lightning erupted from the black leopard's body.
"Boom!"With a loud explosion, the leopard was instantly blown into charcoal.
"Ah!"Hu Liena gasped, her beautiful eyes wide in shock. Always proud and regal, it was her first time seeing such a young boy casually kill a 10,000-year spirit beast with ease.
She stared at the handsome young man intently, completely astonished.
And — all four of his spirit rings were 10,000-year rings. How the hell did he even pull that off?
She felt utterly crushed; her sense of superiority evaporated in an instant. She was speechless.
Where did this monster even come from?
It was like seeing a god.
Meanwhile, Bibi Dong lifted her proud chin, staring hard at the boy who had suddenly appeared.
So young — even younger than Hu Liena — yet he possessed such terrifying strength.
And four black spirit rings too — just like Qian Daoliu, whose first four rings were all black.
It left her completely stunned. Her beautiful eyes gleamed with strange emotions. This young boy was far too dazzling, stirring deep feelings in her heart.
"Ding! Mission triggered: Modify Plot!"
[Bibi Dong is deeply moved and wants to take you as her disciple.](Up to 4 words can be modified.)
Without hesitation, Zhang Fan willed a change — swapping "disciple" for "lover."
"Ding! Plot successfully modified. Storyline has gone a little crazy. Awarded 120 modification points."
Now, Bibi Dong was deeply moved and wanted to take Zhang Fan as her lover.
Following that thought, the rules of reality subtly shifted.
The way Bibi Dong looked at Zhang Fan changed — from stranger, to admiration, to full-blown affection.
The emotional color in her gaze was enough to make hearts race.
Imagine: a peerless beauty staring at you with that deep, soul-melting gaze. Her flawless face, her dazzling eyes, her alluring curves, her fair, delicate skin, and her transcendent aura — all turned into that of a woman hopelessly in love.
Even Hu Liena, standing nearby, seemed to sense something. She turned around and was stunned: her teacher was looking at the boy as if he were a long-lost lover.
That gaze practically wanted to swallow him whole — no, to melt him.
Hu Liena was utterly shocked.The boy looked like he was only 12 or 13 years old!Why was her teacher staring at him so tenderly — tears almost welling up?
Something was definitely wrong here.
"Teacher, what's wrong with you?"Hu Liena asked, utterly confused.
"Nothing... I just saw a very handsome and charming young man."As she spoke, Bibi Dong couldn't help but walk toward Zhang Fan."Hello there, little handsome guy. Shall we get to know each other?"
"Sure! My name's Zhang Fan. And you are?"Zhang Fan smiled warmly, polite and charming, exuding a mysterious aura.
"Luo Liuhua."Bibi Dong thought quickly — she couldn't use her real name. After all, encountering a boy she fell in love with at first sight felt almost like destiny. She had to tread carefully.
"Luo Liuhua, huh? That's a pretty unique name!"
Zhang Fan wasn't surprised that Bibi Dong used a fake name. She was probably worried he'd recognize her as the famous Pope of Spirit Hall — Bibi Dong was a name known to virtually everyone.
"You're here to hunt spirit beasts too?"Bibi Dong asked curiously, her gaze glued to his handsome face.
"Yeah... Didn't expect to bump into you guys though!"Zhang Fan shrugged, glancing at Bibi Dong's beautiful, enchanting face, then at Hu Liena — who also stood out, her foxy charm emanating from her delicate features.
"How about we help you hunt a spirit beast?"Bibi Dong offered kindly.
"That's a little troublesome for you, isn't it? But… are you here to hunt spirit beasts too?"Zhang Fan asked curiously.
"Yes. This is my disciple — Hu Liena. She's just reached level 50."
Bibi Dong quickly introduced Hu Liena. Fortunately, Hu Liena wasn't yet publicly recognized as the future Holy Maiden, so ordinary spirit masters wouldn't know her name.
Even if Bibi Dong gave her real name, Zhang Fan wouldn't recognize it.
"I see. Well then, how about I help you guys hunt a spirit beast for Hu Liena, and afterwards I'll hunt one for myself?"Zhang Fan suggested.
"This..."Bibi Dong hesitated, frowning slightly."You're by yourself? Your fourth spirit ring is already 50,000 years... wouldn't your fifth ring need to be even older? Are you sure you can handle it alone? It's very dangerous. If you want, I can help you—"
But halfway through, she reconsidered.
Everyone has their secrets.Otherwise, how could this boy have such insanely powerful spirit rings?
Clearly, he came alone because he could handle it — and butting in might just make him resent her.
"But if you insist on going alone, it's fine. Everyone has their own secrets."Bibi Dong smiled faintly.
"Thanks for understanding!"Zhang Fan said, surprised at how considerate she was.
"Teacher... is this really okay?"Hu Liena asked awkwardly.How could her teacher fall for a boy she just met? He was younger than her, even if monstrously talented!
Hu Liena didn't realize that her teacher had always been a die-hard romantic.When Bibi Dong loved someone, it was absolute and faithful, to the end.
"Don't doubt your teacher's judgment."Bibi Dong said sternly, glancing at Hu Liena.
Hu Liena immediately chickened out, not daring to argue further.
