Dai Mubai, Your Vision Is Too Narrow

Several of them turned around at once. Three people had appeared behind them and were strolling slowly toward them.

The three consisted of one man and two women. The two girls were dressed flamboyantly, looking no older than seventeen or eighteen, with tall, slender figures.

Most importantly, they were a pair of twin sisters.

Xia Tianling's gaze went straight to the man in the middle, who had an arm around each girl.

The man stood around 1.8 meters tall and looked quite young. He had broad shoulders, a handsome yet resolute face, and long golden hair cascading down his back almost to his waist.

On his face were a pair of strange dark-blue eyes with double pupils. A sinister gleam flickered within them as his eyelids half-opened and closed.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. The playboy Dai Mubai truly lived up to his reputation. With that face and that fat wallet, he certainly had what it took to flit through the flowers without a leaf touching him.

A true veteran of the game.

The twin girls each clung to one of Dai Mubai's arms, while their owner made no effort to hide his wandering hands over their bodies.

What no one noticed was that the instant the man entered, Zhu Zhuqing's face turned livid. She quickly slipped into the farthest corner of the crowd, concealing herself in the shadows.

She had clearly recognized Dai Mubai from his distinctive evil eyes and golden hair.

Dai Mubai walked up to the counter and looked at the attendant. "You're new here, aren't you? Don't you know there always has to be a room kept for me?"

In the corner, Zhu Zhuqing's expression darkened further.

The attendant froze for a moment before asking cautiously, "You are...?"

Dai Mubai said impatiently, "Call your manager out."

Faced with that look, the attendant felt a chill run through him and hurried to the back to fetch his superior.

"Brother, weren't we here first? You're being rather unreasonable here. Acting without such grace in front of those two lovely ladies beside you—aren't you afraid they'll laugh at you? Your vision is far too narrow."

Xia Tianling quietly fanned the flames, though his words sounded perfectly pleasant on the surface.

A real master of sarcasm.

Dai Mubai did not even spare him a glance. He even lifted the chin of one of the girls beside him with his hand before replying coldly, "So what? In Suotuo City, who doesn't know who Young Master Dai is?"

Catching a glimpse from the corner of his eye of Kitten in the corner, clenching her fists tightly, Xia Tianling nearly laughed aloud.

My dear playboy Young Master Dai, calamities sent by Heaven may be forgiven, but those brought upon oneself cannot be escaped.

He really was good at digging his own grave.

At that moment, Xiao Wu, who had always been rather headstrong, could no longer hold herself back and stepped forward. "So what? First come, first served. Get lost!"

Dai Mubai reluctantly withdrew his gaze from the girls beside him and turned to look at Xiao Wu.

"Good. It's been a long time since anyone dared speak to me like that. You all have Soul Power fluctuations too—you should be Soul Masters, right? Come at me together. If you can beat me, I'll leave immediately. Otherwise, please demonstrate what the word 'roll' means."

Hearing their beloved speak, the twin girls giggled foolishly and obediently released his arms, retreating to the side.

Just then, the attendant from before emerged from the back with a middle-aged man. Having heard every word, the man wore an anxious expression.

"Everyone, everyone, let's talk this out. Please don't start fighting."

Dai Mubai shot him a glance. "Manager Wang, you're getting better and better at business, aren't you? You don't even take me seriously now?"

Manager Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead and forced a smile. "Young Master Dai, Young Master Dai, please don't say that. It's all my fault. This boy only started yesterday and doesn't know the rules. My apologies. I'll arrange a room for you immediately."

As he spoke, he turned to the attendant and scolded him, "Open your damn eyes! This is Young Master Dai! Our hotel's highest-ranking VIP! No matter how many guests we have each day, that room must always be kept for Young Master Dai! Why aren't you taking Young Master Dai upstairs already?"

Beautiful! Manager Wang's assist was simply perfect.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Someone who had reached the highest VIP rank solely by booking rooms over the years.

A major customer who came almost every day.

One word: impressive!

Beside them, Zhu Zhuqing was so furious that her lungs were about to explode.

You left me alone in the Star Luo Empire to face the pursuit of my brother and sister, while you ran off to the Heavenly Dou Empire to indulge yourself? So this was Young Master Dai, the highest-ranking VIP!

I must have been blind to ever place any hope in a coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong!

After scolding the attendant, Manager Wang hurriedly apologized to the group as well, hoping they would stay at another hotel instead.

According to Xia Tianling's inner script, his goal of showing Zhu Zhuqing Dai Mubai's true colors had already been achieved. They could have slipped away right then.

Just as he was about to speak and leave, Dai Mubai spoke coldly.

"I said it's been a long time since anyone dared talk to me like that. You think you can just leave? If word gets out, where am I supposed to put my face, Dai Mubai?"

"Young Master Dai, Young Master Dai, you..." Manager Wang was panic-stricken, his face full of pleading.

If these Soul Masters started fighting, his hotel would be finished.

A sharp light flashed through Dai Mubai's eyes. "Enough nonsense. I'll cover all the losses."

In the original story, Xiao Wu was the one who could not hold herself back and rushed forward, while Tang San was the one who fought.

But after witnessing all this, the fury in Zhu Zhuqing's heart had built to its limit. She was instantly ready to rush over and fight Dai Mubai to the death.

She truly intended to risk her life against Dai Mubai.

As my fiancé, it would have been one thing if you hadn't joined forces with me against our enemies, but you actually abandoned me and ran away!

Running away would have been one thing, but you came here to carouse every day? And now you even intend to attack me?

Sensing the killing intent from behind him, Xia Tianling quickly sidestepped and blocked Zhu Zhuqing behind him. He patted her small hand, already curled into a claw, and said softly, "You're not his match. Leave this to me."

With that, he stepped to the very front of the group.

At his words, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes filled with stubbornness, along with a few indescribable emotions.

"No, don't interfere. I want to—"

"It won't be too late to defeat him personally once your cultivation is complete." Xia Tianling turned and flicked a small ball of wind element, pinning Zhu Zhuqing where she stood, before facing Dai Mubai again.

"I was originally going to let you off. Since you insisted, then come on." To be honest, he had wanted to beat Dai Mubai up for a long time. He had merely lacked a proper reason.

I've never heard such an unreasonable request! I'm the sort of person who loves helping others!

Dai Mubai raised an eyebrow. "You're bold enough!"

His right fist suddenly rose. As he lunged forward, an enraged punch shot straight toward Xia Tianling's chest.

Xia Tianling was also holding back a nameless fire in his heart, and he charged forward to meet him. His right leg stepped forward, and he threw out a punch of his own.

With a muffled bang, Dai Mubai's unstoppable punch came to an abrupt halt, and he was instead knocked back half a step.

A trace of surprise flashed through his eyes. He had put eighty percent of his strength into that punch, yet this man had actually forced him back half a step.

And his fist was so hard. His right hand was trembling slightly now, and his bones felt as though they were about to crack. Yet Xia Tianling stood there as though nothing had happened, calm and composed.

Of course Xia Tianling was fine. His physical constitution had been tempered by both his martial soul and cultivation technique, making him no weaker than a Soul King. Dai Mubai was merely a level-thirty-seven Soul Elder—nothing to worry about.
