People are writing diaries in Douluo, Bibi Dong is crazy about it

**Chapter 146: Winning Over Allies**

"You're spouting nonsense! Only a fool would believe your words," Ah Yin retorted sharply, directing her flattery toward Zhao Ling. "Our husband is a wise and resourceful genius. Why would he believe excuses as flimsy as yours, Sister Saixi?"

Her words were an obvious attempt to trap Bo Saixi and align Zhao Ling's favor toward her.

Zhao Ling, who had been observing the exchange with a calm expression, suddenly turned to Bo Saixi. His previously gentle demeanor vanished, replaced by a sinister, ferocious look that made her tremble.

"Xi'er," he said coldly, "I now remember—you did lock the door and windows when I passed by with Long'er in my arms. Do you dislike me that much?"

Bo Saixi froze, shaking her head like a rattle as fear overcame her.

"Hubby, no! Xi'er would never! It was Yin'er who lied to you. She's always disliked you..."

Zhao Ling arched a brow and turned to Ah Yin, his lips curling into a wicked smile.

"Is that so, Yin'er? Do you also dislike your husband? Tell me—how do you think your husband should punish you, hm?"

Ah Yin's confident smirk disappeared in an instant. Her face froze as the realization dawned: she had outsmarted herself this time. Zhao Ling had already made up his mind—both she and Bo Saixi would face punishment.

Before either woman could react, Zhao Ling wrapped an arm around each of their waists and strode toward his master bedroom.

"Hubby! Please, wait—!" Ah Yin struggled, but her strength was no match for Zhao Ling's.

Bo Saixi, despite being a Level 99 Ultimate Douluo and capable of breaking free, dared not resist. Her husband's vengeful nature was well known, and defying him now would only worsen her fate later. Besides, she still couldn't believe his stamina was as legendary as everyone claimed.

Soon, both women were carried into Zhao Ling's master bedroom. The door closed behind them, and faint, muffled sounds began to emerge...

Meanwhile, in Liu Erlong's room, she lay sprawled on her bed with a dazed expression on her face. Her body ached from head to toe, and her mind was consumed with regret.

'Why did I have to provoke him?' she lamented silently. 'I only teased him a little! Did he really have to punish me like this?'

Tears welled up in her eyes. 'I must be the most pitiful woman on the entire Douluo Continent.'

Her gaze fell on a peculiar plant placed nearby—a cockscomb phoenix sunflower. Its vibrant petals seemed to glow faintly, radiating an aura of immense vitality.

"Is this the immortal herb Yin'er mentioned? The one that enhances soul power and improves aptitude?" she mused aloud, curiosity flickering in her tired eyes.

Yet, despite her interest, Liu Erlong made no move to consume it. Exhaustion had rendered her body immobile, and even lifting a finger felt impossible. Besides, she wasn't in the mood to eat.

'Forget it. Sleep is more important right now,' she thought, letting her eyelids droop. 'Once I'm well-rested, I'll take the herb. If it boosts my soul power to level 40, I'll ask Hubby to take me to the Sunset Forest to hunt for a soul ring.'

A faint smile crossed her lips. 'Once I graduate, I can stay at Hubby's mansion with Sister Yin'er. We'll spend our days together... how wonderful that will be.'

Drifting off to sleep, Liu Erlong barely noticed the cockscomb phoenix sunflower still resting beside her.

Zhao Ling had specifically chosen the cockscomb phoenix sunflower for Liu Erlong because her martial soul was a fire dragon. The herb's pure yang energy, along with its ability to purify impurities, was the perfect complement to her fiery nature.

Still, Zhao Ling couldn't help but wonder: 'Will her martial soul evolve after taking the herb? If it does, will it make her even more irritable?'

The thought amused him. 'That would be awkward.'

Despite these musings, he remained confident in his decision. The cockscomb phoenix sunflower was undoubtedly the best choice for Liu Erlong, and he was eager to see what changes it might bring.

Meanwhile, significant news was shaking the Douluo Continent.

The Tiandou royal family had officially announced that they had hired Demon Supression Douluo as their royal priest, and Emperor Xue Ye's sole heir had formally recognized Demon Supression Douluo as his godfather.

This revelation sent ripples through every major sect, family, and power across the continent.

Demon Supression Douluo's identity was already well known thanks to the Spirit Hall's previous publicity. He was a Titled Douluo, the fiancé of the Spirit Hall's Saintess, an honorary elder of the Spirit Hall, and now the royal priest of the Tiandou Empire. To top it all off, he had been declared the adoptive father of the empire's crown prince.

Each of these titles alone was enough to command respect, but together, they made Zhenmo Douluo a formidable figure.

The day after the announcement, the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect publicly congratulated the Tiandou royal family and extended goodwill to their newly appointed royal priest.

At the Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji was delighted when he received the news.

"Good! Good! Good!" he exclaimed, his face glowing with satisfaction.

But not everyone was pleased.

In the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, Yu Yuanzhen's reaction was one of fury. He slammed the table in the family meeting hall, shattering it into pieces.

The reason was clear: Zhao Ling, the infamous Demon-Suppression Douluo, was the man who had turned the family's eldest master into a fool and humiliated their second young master. Now, that same man had aligned himself with both the Spirit Hall and the Tiandou Empire.

Yu Yuanzhen's anger only deepened when he learned that the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect—a long-time ally of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family—had extended goodwill to Zhao Ling.

Yu Luomian, unable to contain his frustration, rose from his seat.

"Brother, you must go to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect personally and remind them of our feud with that bastard Zhao Ling! If we don't act quickly, we risk losing them as allies. Not only that—we must make amends with the Haotian Sect immediately. We cannot allow them to side with Zhao Ling!"
