**Chapter 179: Disaster is Coming**
Tiandou Imperial City, Zhao Ling's Mansion
Ah Yin and Liu Erlong were engrossed in a game of chess when the diary notification chimed. Both women quickly pulled out their diary copies, eager to check the updates.
Reading about Zhao Ling's and Saixi's safe arrival at Poseidon Island, they heaved a sigh of relief. However, Zhao Ling's encounter with the Sea God left them conflicted.
"Was Sister Saixi lucky or unlucky?" Liu Erlong mused aloud. "Lucky because she returned just before the Sea God's arrival? Or unlucky because she ran straight into him?"
"But in the end," Ah Yin added, "the Sea God granted her the Nine Trials of Poseidon. If she passes, she'll become a god—how enviable!"
Their attention then shifted to Tang San, whom Zhao Ling had mentioned. Ah Yin frowned.
"I've already severed ties with Tang Hao," she murmured. "So how could Tang San reappear? Why does my husband seem convinced he will?"
Meanwhile, Liu Erlong was fixated on another part of the diary.
"Our husband mentioned going to the Star Dou Forest to bring back two rabbits—A Rou and Xiao Wu. He's brought up Xiao Wu several times; she's a 100,000-year-old soul beast who hasn't transformed yet."
Liu Erlong's lips twitched. "And A Rou is Xiao Wu's mother, also a 100,000-year-old soul beast, but her spouse was killed by a ferocious beast. That means A Rou is… available."
Her thoughts grew mischievous.
"Anyway, our husband is determined to provide a warm home for all the beautiful women in Douluo. We must bring A Rou over to our side—uh, I mean, to our family."
Ah Yin raised an eyebrow, smirking as she studied Liu Erlong.
"Sister Long'er, we were worried that our husband might torment us after Sister Saixi left. It seems we worried for nothing—he's already plotting to expand our sisterhood."
Liu Erlong breathed a dramatic sigh of relief, patting her chest. "At least he's showing some conscience. If he'd kept bullying us, I might've gone home to escape."
Ah Yin's expression darkened. "Oh? So you'd leave our husband to torment me alone? Some sister you are! Fine, I'll let him know exactly what you just said when he gets back."
Liu Erlong froze, realizing her slip. Her cheeks flushed as she stammered, "I-I didn't mean it like that, Sister Yin'er! I was just worried my family might miss me. That's all!"
"Tsk, who'd believe that? You're busted," Ah Yin teased, folding her arms. "Better prepare for your punishment when he returns."
Liu Erlong clasped her hands together pleadingly. "Please, Sister Yin'er, be merciful! I was wrong—don't tattle on me! If you do, I'll really have to hide at home for a while."
Ah Yin rolled her eyes but relented. "Fine, I'll let it go this time. But behave yourself."
Overjoyed, Liu Erlong leaned in and planted a kiss on Ah Yin's cheek, earning an exasperated eye roll in return.
Liu Erlong suddenly remembered something. "By the way, Sister Yin'er, I was thinking of heading back to the academy tomorrow. My soul power is well beyond level 40, so I can finally graduate. Want to come with me?"
Ah Yin hesitated. "Your academy doesn't have any Titled Douluo, right?"
"Of course not!" Liu Erlong scoffed. "Titled Douluo are rare even in Tiandou Imperial City. My academy is far too small to attract one."
Ah Yin considered the offer but ultimately shook her head.
"Forget it, Long'er. You can go on your own. With my status, it's best I stay out of sight and avoid causing trouble for our husband. The only reason I went shopping with you and Sister Saixi before was that she was strong enough to protect us. Now that she's on Poseidon Island and our husband isn't in the city, I'll stay put. It's the safest choice for both me and him."
Liu Erlong nodded, understanding her reasoning. "Fair enough. I'll go alone, then. When our husband returns, we'll have him take us out for some fun."
"Deal," Ah Yin replied, capturing Liu Erlong's elephant piece with her cannon. "Focus on the game, Sister Long'er, or I'll claim victory in no time."

Spirit Hall
Bibi Dong paused her cultivation, her eyes lighting up as she noticed the diary update. She eagerly flipped to the latest entry, her heart fluttering at the mention of herself.
"My husband thinks I should've inherited the Rakshasa God's throne?!"
Though she knew of the Rakshasa God's reputation—vicious, cunning, and steeped in malevolent power—it made sense, given her past. Falling for Yu Xiaogang and enduring her teacher's torment had undoubtedly twisted her mindset, leading her to the darkness that suited Rakshasa's throne.
But now, things were different. Her husband had redeemed her, guiding her away from that path. The Rakshasa God's inheritance no longer felt inevitable.
What truly warmed her heart was Zhao Ling's determination to secure the Asura God's throne for her instead.
"He always wants the best for me," she murmured, a smile gracing her lips.
That joy was short-lived, however, as reality set in. Her husband had been gone from Spirit Hall for over ten days, and his promised return loomed closer.
"Disaster is coming," she whispered, her cheeks flushing at the thought of facing him alone. "No sisters to share the burden this time... so pitiful!"
