It seemed this Little Wildcat was trying to tempt him.
As the male god of the Ultimate Hunters, how could Luo Chen possibly fail to see through Zhu Zhuqing's intentions?
Since that was the case, he naturally had to tease Zhu Zhuqing a little.
Luo Chen was delighted. He gently reached out and pinched Zhu Zhuqing's sensual, fleshy long leg, then leaned his face closer and looked at her proud, aloof features.
Although Zhu Zhuqing still had her eyes tightly closed, a flush had appeared on her cheeks. Her breathing had clearly quickened, and her lips parted slightly as she exhaled a fragrant breath.
Luo Chen smiled softly. Zhu Zhuqing's acting really wasn't much good. She was nowhere near his level.
Luo Chen leaned toward Zhu Zhuqing's alluring red lips again and gently bit her lip.
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly made a sound. She naturally couldn't keep acting at that point, and she was having trouble holding on. She immediately opened her eyes, her legs trembling slightly. She had become incredibly sensitive now; the slightest touch would make her completely lose control...
"Be good. I'm leaving first. Don't miss me too much..."
Luo Chen looked at Zhu Zhuqing's longing eyes, released her, and gently patted her body.
The next second, Luo Chen immediately used Flying Thunder God Teleportation and left Zhu Zhuqing's dorm room.
"You bastard... don't go..." Zhu Zhuqing hurriedly reached out to grab Luo Chen, but caught nothing but air. Seeing that he had completely vanished, she cried out.
Her voice was incomparably proud and pleasant at that moment, and her eyes seemed ready to drip with moisture.
"You bastard, you bullied me and then just left like that..."
Zhu Zhuqing's face reddened as she lightly gritted her teeth. She felt a little angry, but then realized something was wrong. How could she be like this?
Zhu Zhuqing immediately curled up her sexy long legs, sat on the bed, and wrapped her arms around herself.
Remembering what Luo Chen had said about the Ultimate Hunt he planned to carry out on Dai Mubai, a faint thrill rose in her heart again.
After all, Golden Retriever Dai Mubai was now her ex. Hunting down the childhood sweetheart she had once been with, making Dai Mubai die miserably by her own hand—how could that not feel thrilling and fun?
Luo Chen had already returned to his dorm. Thinking of how Catwoman Zhu Zhuqing had looked before he left, he was somewhat surprised. This girl really was cold on the outside and fiery within.
Still, if he indulged a girl like that too much, she might become even harder to handle than Xiao Wu later on. So he had to reject her appropriately. A light kiss was enough; he couldn't go too far. Once the Ultimate Hunt on that Golden Retriever had been carried out, then he could do whatever he wanted.
That was right. According to Luo Chen's plan, the protagonist's friends, family, and teacher would all die before the protagonist. Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and Grandmaster would all die before Tang San. Tang San would be the last to die.
Only then could the protagonist endure incomparable pain and despair, losing everything he had.
To carry out the plan, Luo Chen naturally had to be someone who could endure loneliness and suppress his emotions. No matter how beautiful a goddess was before him, if he didn't want it, she wouldn't get her way.
Instead, girls would become anxious around him.
Early the next morning, the eight of them gathered on the training ground. Zhu Zhuqing was the last to arrive. When she saw Luo Chen, her face reddened again, and even her walk seemed a little unnatural. Still, she shot Luo Chen a fierce glare.
Luo Chen smiled faintly. Sure enough, Zhu Zhuqing was angry because I didn't do what she wanted yesterday. But it really wouldn't be right to provoke her emotions again. She had already suppressed them for far too long.
Zhu Zhuqing stood off to the side, and Luo Chen didn't go speak to her. Ning Rongrong was beside Luo Chen, while Tang San kept pestering Xiao Wu.
Dai Mubai still wore a grim expression that day. He wasn't as optimistic as Oscar. As he stood there, he continued secretly glancing at Zhu Zhuqing, and there was actually a trace of resentment and anger in his eyes.
Dai Mubai seemed furious that after he had been bullied so badly, Zhu Zhuqing, the girl he had grown up with, hadn't even come over to comfort him.
How could poor Dai Mubai possibly know? Zhu Zhuqing was already preparing to kill him, and the thought of his death filled her with excitement.
After a while, Zhao Wuji came out as well. He really had been beaten even more badly than in the original story. Not only did he have panda eyes, his face was swollen too. Seeing everyone's strange looks, he immediately roared.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up and move out. Dai Mubai, lead the way."
"Yes, Teacher..." Dai Mubai kept a straight face as he walked ahead and began arranging their formation. After all, the Star Dou Great Forest was a dangerous place.
After arranging the formation, the seven of them left the academy gates.
Once they were outside, Luo Chen remembered that Shrek Academy was so poor that they didn't even take a carriage. They actually had to run all the way to the Star Dou Great Forest.
After running for a while, Ning Rongrong, who was beside him, was already struggling to keep up. Luo Chen immediately transferred the power of his Nine Yang Divine Skill to her through his palm, and Ning Rongrong instantly felt her stamina rapidly recovering.
With Luo Chen helping her, Ning Rongrong immediately refused Oscar's sausage. Oscar felt a little upset. He glanced at Luo Chen and guessed that Luo Chen had helped Ning Rongrong.
Oscar gritted his teeth. Recalling what that mysterious person had told him when he was beaten that day, he once again felt that he couldn't remain such a coward. He immediately ran to Luo Chen and Ning Rongrong's side, looked at Luo Chen, and said.
"Luo Chen, I want to compete with you fairly. I won't give up on Ning Rongrong..."
Luo Chen smiled faintly. "Sure. As long as she's willing to be with you someday, I naturally won't stop her."
Ning Rongrong glanced at Oscar, then snorted coldly. "Oscar, go away..."
Oscar looked at Ning Rongrong guiltily and said seriously, "I know you're still angry at me. I really shouldn't have abandoned you that day, but I've already changed. From now on, no matter how powerful the enemy is, I'll protect you properly. At worst, I'll die before you..."
Seeing Oscar's expression, Luo Chen laughed inwardly. He was such a coward that day, yet now he's putting on an act. Whatever. Luo Chen didn't even consider Oscar a worthy opponent.
"Stop pretending. I don't want to see you." Ning Rongrong shot Oscar a disgusted look, immediately grabbed Luo Chen's hand tightly, and completely ignored Oscar.
Oscar was left behind, still shouting, "Rongrong, I'll definitely protect you from now on..."
Walking ahead, Luo Chen thought that it was time to tell Ning Rongrong about the Ultimate Hunt planned for Oscar.
The Ultimate Hunting Plan for Dai Mubai and Oscar was actually different from Tang San's. Tang San had to deeply fall in love with Xiao Wu, so Xiao Wu had to be his little sister. The deeper his love, the greater his pain would be in the end.
As for Oscar and Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing only needed to keep them hanging. Given Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's relationship, even if Zhu Zhuqing completely ignored him, he would keep pestering her until he got what he wanted. The more he failed to get her, the angrier he would become.
In that state, Dai Mubai would lose even more of the upper hand in the relationship. Zhu Zhuqing could keep him hanging and torture him in all kinds of ways, returning all the humiliation she had suffered before, before slowly beginning the Ultimate Hunt.
Oscar was roughly the same. He had to be allowed to see hope and continue desperately striving. After he had given everything, Ning Rongrong would kill him.
That was just how people's hearts worked. The more they couldn't get something, the more they wanted it, until they became a Simp. For example, sometimes the other person had clearly been the one pursuing you, but as they grew distant, you became the Simp instead.
As an Ultimate Hunter, Luo Chen not only possessed invincible strength, but was also an expert at manipulating people's hearts.
The eight of them ran all the way. The journey was too long, and Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun all ate Oscar's sausages in succession. Luo Chen had the Nine Yang Divine Skill to replenish himself and could also transfer his power to Ning Rongrong, so naturally neither he nor Ning Rongrong ate Oscar's sausages.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing both accepted Oscar's sausages, but neither of them ate them. They simply threw the sausages away. Luo Chen also used Wind Release to transfer the power of his Nine Yang Divine Skill to them.
Xiao Wu could naturally sense it. She secretly turned back and flirted with Luo Chen through her eyes.
Although Ning Rongrong was beside Luo Chen, she no longer minded. Instead, she also exchanged flirtatious looks with Xiao Wu.
Luo Chen was delighted. These two girls had already decided to share him. Perfect.
Zhu Zhuqing, on the other hand, could also tell that Luo Chen was helping her. She occasionally stole glances at him, seeming somewhat unhappy.
It took an entire day of running from Shrek Academy to the Star Dou Great Forest. It was only at night that they finally got relatively close to the forest.
The eight of them entered a small town. Zhao Wuji was a little tired by then as well. After calling for a rest, the eight of them happily began buying things at the nearby market.
Luo Chen bought some snacks and drinks too, then wandered around with Tang San and Xiao Wu. Zhao Wuji still walked ahead. When he spotted an inn, he immediately led the eight of them inside.
This seemed to be the same inn from the original story. Guided by the world's destiny, although some parts of the process had changed, certain events still fit perfectly with the original story.
After the eight entered the inn, Zhao Wuji rented a private room and went upstairs. Luo Chen immediately went to the counter and rented three rooms: a triple room, a four-person room, and a single room for himself. He wasn't short on money now. He could easily get plenty of Gold Soul Coins, so naturally he didn't care about spending this little bit.
Luo Chen rented a single room for himself because he naturally didn't want to stay with those four turtles. At night, he might even secretly visit the three girls' room.
When Dai Mubai saw Luo Chen had rented rooms in advance, he didn't say anything. The eight of them immediately found a large table in the first-floor dining hall and sat down.
Ning Rongrong sat beside Luo Chen, while the seat on his other side was still empty. Xiao Wu suddenly saw an opportunity. Although she knew that even if she sat beside Luo Chen, Tang San would definitely sit on her other side, Xiao Wu didn't care. After all these years, the secret romance techniques between Xiao Wu and Luo Chen had become especially refined.
But just as Xiao Wu was about to sit down, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly sprinted forward from behind, bumped Xiao Wu aside, and took the seat beside Luo Chen first.
After sitting down, Zhu Zhuqing's expression didn't change. She still looked cold and aloof. Only when Luo Chen looked at her in surprise did she gently lower her head.
Damn. Luo Chen was somewhat surprised as well. This girl was a little too proactive. Still, just sitting beside him didn't mean anything. Dai Mubai probably couldn't possibly think there was anything between them. After all, in front of Dai Mubai, Luo Chen and Zhu Zhuqing had barely exchanged a few words.
Luo Chen gently reached out and secretly pinched her. Zhu Zhuqing immediately pulled her legs back. The feeling was wonderfully indescribable.
Luo Chen glanced at Dai Mubai. That guy was still staring fixedly at Zhu Zhuqing and didn't suspect anything between Luo Chen and her. He must have believed that since he and Zhu Zhuqing had known each other since childhood, no one could steal Zhu Zhuqing away.
But Xiao Wu behind them was a little unhappy...
"What are you doing? You little cat, how can you steal my seat..." Xiao Wu had been bumped and immediately became dissatisfied. She reached out, intending to pull Zhu Zhuqing up.
Zhu Zhuqing immediately turned around and looked at Xiao Wu with slightly cold eyes.
Xiao Wu wasn't afraid of her either. She said proudly, "What, do you want to fight? Didn't I bully you enough that day? Be careful, or I'll squeeze you smaller..."
Xiao Wu's words genuinely surprised Luo Chen. Seeing Zhu Zhuqing blush and prepare to stand up to fight Xiao Wu, Luo Chen hurriedly grabbed her hand.
Tang San looked at Xiao Wu and said, "Forget it, Xiao Wu. We can sit over here. She probably didn't bump into you on purpose just now..."
"Uh, fine. I wanted to talk more with Xiao Chen and Rongrong, but hmph, forget it. Xiao Wu-jie won't hold it against you." Xiao Wu snorted and sat on the other side. She was quite clever. By saying that deliberately, she wouldn't make the others suspect that she had wanted to sit beside Luo Chen on purpose.
Tang San naturally sat beside Xiao Wu as well. As everyone ate, they began chatting. Of course, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing barely spoke. Ning Rongrong spoke quietly with Luo Chen, while Oscar watched Ning Rongrong and had no mood to chat.
Dai Mubai wore a grim expression as he stared at Zhu Zhuqing too. The atmosphere was a little awkward.
But Luo Chen was happy. Everyone present thought Zhu Zhuqing was very cold, but he knew better. While secretly talking with Ning Rongrong, he occasionally touched Zhu Zhuqing, making her unable to stop herself from blushing several times.
This made Dai Mubai think that Zhu Zhuqing still liked him. Dai Mubai's mood immediately improved, and he began chatting with Ma Hongjun, that fat guy, and Tang San.
After a while, another group entered the inn. There were eight people in total. They should have been from Canghui Academy, just like in the original story. There was also a female student among them. She had a pretty good figure and looked around seventeen or eighteen.
After the eight sat down, one of the middle-aged men secretly said a few words. Then two people deliberately went to provoke Dai Mubai.
Dai Mubai immediately sent one of the male students flying with a palm strike.
That teacher became furious, and five students rushed over. This time, Xiao Wu didn't make a move. Instead, Tang San, that show-off, charged out and joined Dai Mubai in fighting the five students.
"White Tiger Avatar..." Dai Mubai's muscles swelled exaggeratedly.
The five students from Canghui Academy immediately released their Martial Souls as well. All five possessed Beast Martial Souls.
"Hehe, how can a fight be complete without me..." Ma Hongjun also leaped out and used Phoenix Avatar.
After Dai Mubai knocked down another Canghui Academy student with a punch, the teacher immediately had the other four students help him up and retreat to the side.
That teacher was Ye Zhiqiu, a director at Canghui Academy. He stepped forward and released his Martial Soul.
"Black Tortoise Avatar..."
Five soul rings appeared around Ye Zhiqiu. As a Soul King, he naturally wanted to help Canghui Academy regain its dignity.
Just like in the original story, Dai Mubai and Tang San were both greatly shocked. Ma Hongjun cursed him as an old turtle, angering him. Ye Zhiqiu shouted, "Since that's the case, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your teacher..."
After using his Black Tortoise Martial Soul, Ye Zhiqiu's defense was extremely powerful. His entire body seemed to shrink into a turtle shell.
Tang San began showing off again and loudly said, "Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, Xiao Chen, let's deal with him together. If we follow what I say, we might not lose..."
At that moment, Luo Chen, Xiao Wu, and the others naturally stepped forward as well. Tang San began rambling on and on like in the original story, making Luo Chen a little impatient.
Tang San assigned tasks to everyone, yet didn't assign anything to Ning Rongrong. Ning Rongrong hurriedly asked, "What about me?"
Tang San glanced at Ning Rongrong and said, "You... adapt to the situation. At a time like this, your support won't be of much use."
The moment Luo Chen heard that, he couldn't understand it at all. Wasn't Tang San talking nonsense? Ning Rongrong's two skills could clearly increase strength and speed by more than thirty percent, multiplying their offensive power. How could they be useless?
Tang San was obviously taking Dai Mubai's side and still excluding Ning Rongrong. It had been the same in the original story. Ning Rongrong clearly only needed to stand to the side and provide support, but Tang San deliberately didn't say so. He just wanted to exclude Ning Rongrong and deliberately crush her pride.
Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth. In the original story, she had swallowed her anger, but now she couldn't bear it anymore. She shouted, "Tang San, what are you acting so smug for? Who do you think you are, standing here ordering everyone around? Why should we listen to you?"
