Mozi hovered in the air, not pressing his advantage, but simply watching her coldly:
"So what if heir to the divine throne?"
"Even God bleeds in the face of the power of science."
These words struck Bibi Dong's heart like a heavy hammer.
Looking at the cold, massive mecha before her, a sense of fear finally arose in her heart.
We can't beat them.
We really can't beat them.
If this continues, I'm afraid we'll really perish here today.
"Nana... let's go!"
Bibi Dong made a decisive decision; although it was humiliating, saving her life was the priority.
She forcibly overdrawn her soul power, attempting to break free from the constraints of that energy field, and grabbed Hu Liena beside her to escape.
"Trying to leave?"
Did you get my permission?
Mozi snorted coldly, and the core reactor on the mecha's chest instantly erupted with dazzling light.
"Blocking the old ways!"
Buzz—
A visible ripple swept across the entire area in an instant.
Bibi Dong, who was still able to move with difficulty, suddenly froze.
This time, it wasn't a slowdown.
It was complete stillness!
Her feet seemed rooted to the ground, unable to move even a finger.
That terrifying control force completely severed all her connections with the outside world.
"How is this possible..."
"I... I can't move?!"
The fear in Bibi Dong's eyes finally reached its peak.
As a Limit Douluo, being pinned to the spot like a chicken by someone else was so powerless that she almost collapsed.
"Let me go!"
"Mozi! How dare you treat me like this?!"
Although she couldn't move her body, she could still move her mouth.
Bibi Dong became hysterical, completely abandoning her usual papal demeanor, shouting and screaming:
"I am the Pope of the Spirit Hall! If you dare to harm me, Qian Daoliu will never let you go!"
"Let me go! Or I'll wipe out your entire Mo Family City!"
"..."
Mozi ignored her completely, simply crossing his arms and watching her rage helplessly.
Just as Bibi Dong was cursing until her voice was almost hoarse.
Her gaze inadvertently fell upon the city lord's mansion.
There seemed to be a person standing in the shadows there.
When that person slowly stepped out of the shadows, and the sunlight shone on that signature long golden hair, Bibi Dong's cursing stopped abruptly.
That figure...
That face...
She would recognize him even if he turned to ashes!
"Qian...Qian Renxue?!"
Bibi Dong's voice instantly became sharp and distorted.
Qian Renxue, dressed in casual clothes, walked out of the city lord's mansion and quietly looked at her, who was now in a sorry state.
The ray of sunlight pierced through the dust and steam in the air and fell squarely on the blonde girl.
Bibi Dong's already pale face, due to the severe injury, turned completely bloodless.
In that instant, she even forgot the humiliation of being physically imprisoned, and was left only with astonishment in her eyes.
"Qian Renxue?"
Bibi Dong never imagined that she would see her daughter, whom she considered a stain on her life, here in this city filled with unknown technology and powerful military force.
What's Qian Renxue doing here?
"..."
Compared to Bibi Dong's shock, Qian Renxue looked quite content.
She was dressed in a light gold casual outfit, with her hands behind her back, and walked lightly to the huge mecha.
Qian Renxue raised her head and looked at the "Peacekeeper" that shimmered with metallic luster, a bright smile blooming on her face.
"Uncle Mozi, well done!"
"This giant spider is quite ferocious; only your mechanical skills could subdue her."
"..."
Upon hearing Qian Renxue's praise, Mozi's murderous aura instantly dissipated considerably.
The core light on the mecha's chest flickered twice, followed by Mozi's slightly amused voice:
"You flatter me."
"It's just because of the blueprints and core technology given to me by the Dean. If I can't even handle a level 99 enemy, I have no face to see the Dean."
Bibi Dong is not a fool.
Seeing this, even if she was slow to react, she instantly understood everything.
What Mo Family City, what Jixia Academy, this is clearly a trap set against her!
A surge of anger at being fooled rushed to my head.
"A Thousand Blades of Snow!"
"You orchestrated all of this?!"
Bibi Dong's eyes were bloodshot as she stared intently at the smiling girl.
She initially thought it was just bad luck, that she had run into a brick wall.
Now it seems that Qian Renxue clearly knew she was coming and was deliberately waiting here to see her make a fool of herself.
Faced with Bibi Dong's questioning, Qian Renxue turned around, her smile gradually fading, replaced by a condescending indifference.
She did not answer Bibi Dong's question, but instead looked at the high and mighty pope with the eyes of someone looking at a prisoner.
The woman who was once so arrogant and whom she could only look up to and fear is now frozen in place like a specimen, looking utterly disheveled.
This contrast filled Qian Renxue with an unprecedented sense of pleasure.
"So what if it's me?"
Qian Renxue shrugged, her tone relaxed.
"Bibi Dong, haven't you always boasted that you have a perfect plan?"
"Why are you like a stray dog today, stuck here unable to move?"
"Or do you enjoy being abused like this, so pathetic, so wretched, not at all like the Pope of the Spirit Hall?"
Bibi Dong was so angry that she trembled all over. If looks could kill, Qian Renxue would probably have been torn to pieces long ago.
"presumptuous!"
"Qian Renxue, since you're your person, why don't you make him let me go!"
"I can't move!"
The fear of losing complete control of her body added a hint of panic to Bibi Dong's voice.
She was genuinely scared.
This soul skill called "Stick to the Rules" is too bizarre; it completely seals off her soul power, making her no different from an ordinary person now.
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue reacted as if she had heard a joke.
She tilted her head, a hint of sarcasm playing on her lips.
"Let you go?"
"Bibi Dong, haven't you figured out the situation yet?"
"You are an intruder, an unwelcome guest, and now that you've been caught by the host, instead of begging for mercy, you're ordering me to release you?"
"On what grounds?"
Bibi Dong gritted her teeth and brought up the relationship that she was most unwilling to admit, but which was also her only lifeline at this moment.
"Because I am your mother!"
"Qian Renxue, I am the one who gave birth to you! My blood flows in your veins!"
"Are you just going to stand by and watch outsiders bully your mother?!"
The air suddenly became quiet for a moment.
Hearing this, Hu Liena, who was standing to the side, felt her heart leap into her throat and dared not even breathe.
She knew how strained the relationship between the mother and daughter was; it was like dancing in a minefield.
really.
Qian Renxue's face instantly darkened.
Her eyes, which had previously held a hint of mockery, were now filled with chilling coldness.
