Chapter 12: Tricking Bibi Dong

"Also, what you said just now was generalizing. Yu Xiaogang said that martial spirits are divided into weapon martial spirits and beast martial spirits. This is completely wrong."

"I remember that the Spirit Hall has the inheritance of the Angel God, whose spirit is the six-winged angel. Can the six-winged angel from the gods be classified as a beast spirit?"

"There is also the high priest of Seagod Island, whose martial soul is the Seagod martial soul. Could the so-called Seagod be a beast martial soul?"

"Also, my Soul of Desire is the power of my body, it is my soul. Can a soul also be considered a beast martial soul?"

"You haven't even researched clearly what martial souls are, but you say they are only divided into beast martial souls and weapon martial souls. Isn't this generalizing?" Luo Ling showed contempt, not hiding his disdain for Yu Xiaogang at all.

Bibi Dong's expression kept changing as Luo Ling spoke, and in the end she could only look at Luo Ling with a complicated expression.

Could it be that I was really deceived? Xiaogang got all his theories from the Spirit Hall, but he never told anyone about it.

Did Xiaogang deliberately release those theories for the sake of fame?
Luo Ling's words left her with no way to refute. For the first time in her life, Bibi Dong began to doubt Yu Xiaogang.

The red light in her eyes that belonged to the soul of desire had also completely merged into her pupils.

Luo Ling watched all this without noticing anything. The power of the Soul of Desire had completely eroded the past. As for the effect, he would have to wait and see in the future.

"You know a lot of things? I wonder where you learned it all from?" Bibi Dong sighed and stopped thinking about Yu Xiaogang. Instead, she became interested in Luo Ling.

"There are many people on the mainland who know about the six-winged angel spirit you mentioned, but I don't even know about the Seagod spirit of the high priestess of Seagod Island, and you even know this..."

When Bibi Dong's words fell into Luo Ling's ears, Luo Ling's heart suddenly tightened.

I was so busy criticizing Yu Xiaogang that I forgot about this!

A little kid like me with no background, I have shown too much knowledge!

"Well, these are...what my grandfather told me!" Luo Ling felt a little nervous, but he still spoke as if nothing had happened.

"Your grandfather?" Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes. She knew nothing about Luo Ling's background.

"That's right! My grandpa!" Luo Ling quickly thought of an excuse in his mind, "I was adopted by my grandpa since I was a child, and my martial spirit was also awakened by my grandpa!"

"My grandfather also told me this knowledge!"

"I wonder who your grandfather is?" Bibi Dong asked curiously. A person who knows so much about martial spirit theory is obviously not an ordinary person. If he can be admitted to the Spirit Hall...

"Grandpa passed away last year..." Luo Ling suddenly felt lost, with tears welling up in his eyes.

"Dead?" Bibi Dong was a little skeptical, and looked at Luo Ling with a meaningful look.

But Luo Ling's sad look didn't seem fake.

“Yes, I have lived in the mountains with my grandfather since I was a child and have never been bothered by the world. It was my grandfather who taught me a lot of knowledge. He passed away a year ago after awakening my martial soul. Now I have been living alone.” Luo Ling pretended to recover from his grief and wiped his eyes.

Hu Liena, who was standing by, grabbed Luo Ling's hand out of sympathy after hearing what he said. "Don't be sad. You won't be alone anymore! You have a teacher, and you have me as your senior sister!"

Looking at Hu Liena's concerned eyes, Luo Ling nodded and said nothing more.

Bibi Dong just looked at Luo Ling deeply. She couldn't ask about Luo Ling's family affairs under such circumstances. "Well, I will be your teacher from now on. You can tell me anything." Fortunately, Bibi Dong didn't mention Luo Ling's life experience anymore. She asked another question, "By the way, did you sneak into the Soul Hunting Forest to get a spirit ring for your second martial soul?"

"Yes, I'm here to get the spirit ring." Seeing that Bibi Dong didn't mention her life experience again, Luo Ling breathed a sigh of relief and replied.

"If you are here to obtain spirit rings, then you can give up first. This is not the way to cultivate twin spirits."

"Teacher said that we should wait until our level is higher before obtaining a spirit ring for our second martial spirit. This way, we can obtain a spirit ring with a higher age."

"You know?" Bibi Dong said in surprise.

"Well, this is what my grandfather told me. However, my twin martial souls are different. I need to obtain spirit rings for both martial souls at the same time before I can continue to improve my spirit power level." Luo Ling explained calmly. All the inexplicable things can be pushed onto the non-existent grandfather.

There is no need to worry about being exposed because this person does not exist at all and Bibi Dong cannot find any flaws.

"You mean that your spirit power level has reached a bottleneck now?" Bibi Dong frowned. This situation was completely different from her twin martial souls.

Luo Ling was about to answer when he heard this, but Bibi Dong had already reached out and grabbed his hand, and a gentle soul power flowed along his arm into his body.

Feeling the bottleneck of Luo Ling's soul power, Bibi Dong suddenly felt confused.

What this kid said was actually true. Why would this happen with twin martial spirits?
"Did your grandfather ever tell me what your martial spirit is?" Bibi Dong asked.

Luo Ling was stunned for a moment. What could a non-existent grandfather say?
He pondered for a moment, then decided to make up a theory.

"Well, Grandpa said that my situation is rather special. He called my martial spirit... the same-origin twin martial spirits."

"As the name suggests, it is two martial souls of the same origin. When fused together, they become a complete martial soul. However, this martial soul is too powerful, and the body cannot bear it when it awakens, so it is divided into two martial souls. When practicing, spirit rings must be obtained for both martial souls at the same time."

"That's why I came to the Soul Hunting Forest, and my martial soul fusion is also for this reason!"

As he talked eloquently, Luo Ling couldn't help but feel that what he said was perfect.

"Twin martial spirits of the same origin." Bibi Dong repeated the term Luo Ling said, and it sounded quite similar.

"Your grandfather is really knowledgeable." She sighed. At this moment, Bibi Dong began to believe that the grandfather Luo Ling talked about was real.

Could it be some old antique that has been hidden from the world?
"That's about it, so I have to obtain the first soul ring of my second martial soul before I can continue practicing." Luo Ling shrugged.

"Have you decided what soul beast you want to hunt?"

"I plan to hunt the ghost bird." Luo Ling took out the soul beast illustration book from the package and turned to the page about the ghost bird. "My Soul of Desire is a spiritual spirit, so absorbing the spirit ring of a spiritual spirit beast is the best."

"Ghost Bird is a good choice." Bibi Dong nodded, "Then let the teacher help you."

"Thank you, teacher!" Luo Ling smiled.

In the following time, Bibi Dong asked Luo Ling and Hu Liena to train in the Soul Hunting Forest together. Since the ghost bird only appears at night, the three of them stayed in the Soul Hunting Forest until night.

As evening approached, Luo Ling saw a figure wrapped in darkness.
