Desire to Kill Dai Mubai! (Please Keep Reading!)

"By the way, Qianhai, how did you know I would be assassinated?"

Only on the road did Zhu Zhuqing remember this matter she had almost forgotten.

She really hadn't known her boyfriend was so well-informed.

Since Zhu Zhuqing wanted to know, Jiang Qianhai slowly told her about his experiences over the past few days.

"Your friend?"

"Yeah. I met him at the Star Dou Riverway. At first, he spoke all refined and proper, but later he loosened up a bit. Most importantly, he likes fishing too, so we naturally became friends."

Zhu Zhuqing was still a little puzzled, unable to understand how Jiang Qianhai's friend had known about this.

After all, how could an ordinary person possibly come into contact with something like this?

Ning Rongrong suddenly tugged at Jiang Qianhai's clothes.

"Wait, what did you say your friend's name was?"

"Qinghe. What's wrong? You know him?"

Jiang Qianhai thought that since that guy Qinghe's family was in Heaven Dou and he was very rich, maybe Ning Rongrong did know him.

"Qinghe... Is he blond, with a bit of a baby face?"

Ning Rongrong frowned as she recalled, describing the features of the person she knew.

"That's what he looks like. You really do know each other."

Ning Rongrong covered her face. "I know him. More than know him. That guy is called Xue Qinghe. My father is his teacher. Most importantly, Xue Qinghe is the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire!"

"The crown prince!"

Jiang Qianhai was a little surprised, but on second thought, it actually made sense. Qinghe's speech and manners at the beginning, and the powerful expert protecting him from the shadows—if he was the crown prince, then it was completely normal.

"Hold on, let me confirm it."

Jiang Qianhai took out the Communication Stone, moved his Soul Power, and sent over a message.

Jiang Qianhai: You're the Heaven Dou Crown Prince?

It was just that direct.

In less than three breaths, the other side replied.

Xue Qinghe: What? Now that you know This Crown Prince's identity, you want to suck up to me? I'll give you a chance to be my dog.

Jiang Qianhai: Suck up? Are you worthy? Also, you damn well swiped one of my Fishing Rods, didn't you?

Xue Qinghe: Bullshit! I asked you! You didn't answer, so what else was that but silent agreement?

Jiang Qianhai: It was just a Fishing Rod. It's not like I couldn't bear to part with it, so why explain? Hm?

Xue Qinghe: You! Believe it or not, This Crown Prince will directly ban you from fishing in every body of water!

Jiang Qianhai: I'm sorry, I was wrong! That sort of thing really shouldn't be done, right? My good brother?

Xue Qinghe: Heh, now you know fear? Forget it. This Crown Prince is magnanimous and won't argue with you.

After that, the two casually chatted about their recent situations and ended the communication.

"Done chatting? How was it?"

The communication device naturally had a confidentiality function. Others could only see Jiang Qianhai holding the stone as his expression shifted, and only when Jiang Qianhai put Shitou away did they know their conversation was over.

"It really was him. I didn't expect him to be a crown prince."

"He was already the crown prince to begin with, okay?"

Amid their laughter and chatter, the gates of Shrek Academy had already come into view.

Seeing the crude five large characters of "Shrek Academy," the corners of the two Title Douluo's mouths twitched uncontrollably.

Although they knew Shrek Academy was poor, they had not expected it to be poor to this extent.

After entering Shrek Academy, Jiang Qianhai and Zhu Zhuqing immediately went to wash the smell of blood off themselves, then changed into another set of clothes.

Afterward, Jiang Qianhai took out his catch to entertain the two Title Douluo who had come from afar.

Half an hour later, a Whole Fish Feast had already been laid out on the table.

What followed was naturally a happy feast for host and guests alike. Everyone was full of praise for Jiang Qianhai's cooking, and Ning Rongrong even wanted to drag Jiang Qianhai back home to be her personal chef.

Zhu Zhuqing directly refused this request on Jiang Qianhai's behalf.

"Right! Qianhai, you have to avenge Zhuqing!"

After eating her fill, the grudge-bearing Little Demon Girl directly brought up today's matter.

While she was at it, she also explained Zhu Zhuqing's deductions, showing off a little in front of Jiang Qianhai.

"Dai Mubai? It really is very likely him. I didn't manage to kill him last time, and now he actually dares to show his face and cause trouble again."

"What are you going to do?"

Zhu Zhuqing leaned against Jiang Qianhai, her right hand idly fiddling with the decorations on Jiang Qianhai's clothes.

Jiang Qianhai looked at Zhu Zhuqing and chuckled. "He tried to harm you. Naturally, he can't be allowed to live!"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded in satisfaction. Though she did want to reward Jiang Qianhai with a kiss, there were outsiders present, so she held herself back.

What did what happened earlier count as?

Of course, that was just acting on impulse!

"When are you planning to make your move?"

The two Title Douluo could not very well speak on this matter, but Ning Rongrong was the type who loved stirring things up. Judging by her expression, she seemed eager for Jiang Qianhai to act right now.

Jiang Qianhai did not want to delay either, and immediately began sensing Dai Mubai's aura.

The perception belonging to a Battle Emperor swept out in an instant, enveloping a vast area that included Suotuo City.

A moment later, Jiang Qianhai could not help frowning.

"Nothing?"

"What's wrong?"

When Zhu Zhuqing saw Jiang Qianhai frown, she knew things might not be so simple.

"I didn't find any trace of Dai Mubai."

"He ran?"

Ning Rongrong immediately puffed out her cheeks in anger.

Zhu Zhuqing remained calm.

"Since Dai Mubai chose to try to kill me, he must have prepared a way out. After all, even if I died, Qianhai, you would still be here."

"He doesn't want to die, so he definitely slipped away in secret."

"This is troublesome."

Jiang Qianhai deeply disliked the feeling of being watched from behind. If Zhu Zhuqing encountered danger again next time and he was not by her side, what then?

"Wait!"

Jiang Qianhai's eyes suddenly lit up.

"I..."

Before he could say it, he felt the Communication Stone move.

"Xue Qinghe sent you a message? What did he say?"

Seeing Jiang Qianhai take out the Communication Stone again, Ning Rongrong leaned over, wanting to see what was written, but that was destined to be futile.

After Jiang Qianhai checked the information inside, he could not help sucking in a breath.

The message said:

Dai Mubai posted a high-priced bounty for Zhu Zhuqing's head on the Black Market at noon today, with a price comparable to that of a Soul Emperor. Afterward, he found Flender, the dean of Shrek Academy, handed him something, and with his help quickly left Balak Kingdom, then headed toward Star Luo. He has probably already reached the Star Luo border by now. General direction: Stonessera Territory → Star Luo Imperial Capital.

This almost prophetic message left Jiang Qianhai not knowing what to say.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Qianhai: Amazing! As expected of my brother! This information is exactly what I need! If you ever need anything in the future, just call me!

In Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, Xue Qinghe smiled faintly as he looked at Jiang Qianhai's reply. Though he understood Jiang Qianhai quite well, he was not so capable that he could predict the future. He had merely inferred, based on how events were developing, that Jiang Qianhai might need this intelligence.

With the mindset of taking a swing whether there were dates on the tree or not, he sent the information over.

Now it seemed the effect was outstanding!

Looking at the six words "If you ever need anything," the smile at the corner of Xue Qinghe's mouth grew even deeper.

Xue Qinghe: I'll remember those words!

Jiang Qianhai: Of course! I keep my word, but don't go too far, all right?

Xue Qinghe: Am I that kind of person?

Jiang Qianhai: Yes, yes, you're not that kind of person. I still have things to do, so that's it for now.

Xue Qinghe: ...Go on, then.

He swallowed back the "dog" that had almost reached his lips, and after saying goodbye, he went off to dreamland in quite a good mood.

Shrek Academy.

Jiang Qianhai put away the Communication Stone and grinned. "Found him! I'm going to deal with him. Wait for me to come back!"

"Be careful."

The next instant, faintly visible transparent Battle Qi wings extended from his back. With one flap, Jiang Qianhai soared into the air, then vanished from everyone's sight at extreme speed.

Gu Rong sighed. "That speed really is terrifying!"

Chen Xin said, "No! What's even more terrifying is his age!"

Twelve years old!
