"..."

Su Xing had never expected Zhu Zhuqing to respond like that.

But thinking about it carefully, that really was Zhu Zhuqing's personality. Especially at this point in time, she was exceptionally aloof.

"Wait! It's too dangerous for a young girl like you to travel alone. I'll protect you!"

Su Xing did not want to simply let Zhu Zhuqing leave, so he hurried after her.

As for those two scumbags... how could they possibly be more important than Zhu Zhuqing?

Fine, Su Xing admitted that he had taken a liking to Zhu Zhuqing—or rather, that he was craving her body.

Really, he had liked Zhu Zhuqing very much when he first saw her in the anime. Now that he was seeing the real Zhu Zhuqing with his own eyes, his young heart immediately began to stir.

So Su Xing did not care about the original pairing, or that trash Dai Mubai. He wanted to see whether he could win Zhu Zhuqing over!

Hearing Su Xing's words, Zhu Zhuqing paused.

"No need!" Zhu Zhuqing did not trust Su Xing and rejected him coldly.

"Don't refuse. I just happen to be heading this way too, so it's no trouble!" Su Xing smiled slightly and continued following her.

Zhu Zhuqing stopped again, this time more forcefully.

"What exactly do you want by following me?"

Zhu Zhuqing stared coldly at Su Xing, her gaze sharp and icy!

Yet as Su Xing looked at Zhu Zhuqing's frosty expression, not only was he not afraid, he found her even more coolly alluring. His young heart grew more restless.

"Fine, I'll be honest. Believe it or not, it was love at first sight!"

Thus, Su Xing did not avoid Zhu Zhuqing's eyes. He boldly met her beautiful gaze and spoke frankly.

However, Zhu Zhuqing's expression remained icy.

"Do we know each other?"

Zhu Zhuqing snorted. "Love at first sight? You were just attracted by my looks. How are you any different from those two bastards?"

Su Xing: "..."

Su Xing was genuinely left speechless for a moment.

Who would have thought? This girl was quite clear-headed. She understood things so well at her age—frighteningly precocious!

Seeing Su Xing at a loss for words, Zhu Zhuqing looked at him with even greater contempt. I hit the mark, didn't I?

"It's different. They only want your body. I want your heart too."

Looking into Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, which seemed able to speak, Su Xing knew what she meant without her saying a word and immediately felt dissatisfied.

"..."

Faced with Su Xing's shamelessly bold and direct words, it was Zhu Zhuqing's turn to be speechless.

Looking away, Zhu Zhuqing snorted coldly. "Then you're even more detestable than they are!"

With that, Zhu Zhuqing had no intention of continuing to tangle with Su Xing. She turned and quickly left.

"Let's get acquainted. My name is Su Xing, a level 27 Soul Grandmaster. What about you?"

Su Xing did not know the meaning of backing down. He immediately caught up and continued trying to strike up a conversation.

At his words, Zhu Zhuqing's steps paused slightly. She had not expected Su Xing to be the same level as her.

But Zhu Zhuqing immediately quickened her pace again, completely ignoring him.

"I already told you my name. What's yours?"

"No way, you're not answering me? You don't want to tell me?"

"That must be it. The person I've taken a liking to can't possibly be so rude!"

"..."

Zhu Zhuqing ignored him, but Su Xing was not embarrassed. He leisurely walked at her side.

With Zhu Zhuqing's speed, it was impossible for her to shake him off.

Zhu Zhuqing quickly realized that as well and stopped helplessly.

"Didn't you say those two people shouldn't be let off? If I don't deal with them, are you not going to either?"

Zhu Zhuqing turned to Su Xing and frowned.

It turned out Zhu Zhuqing had not forgotten those two bastards who had tried to assault her.

After Su Xing told her about it, she had realized that she could not simply let those two scumbags go.

The reason she had left directly was because she thought Su Xing would deal with them. Who would have thought that Su Xing would ignore them too?

This made Zhu Zhuqing's impression of Su Xing even worse!

"I knew I wasn't wrong about you. You haven't forgotten that those two bastards can't be spared!"

"Don't worry. Watch me!"

Hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words, Su Xing nodded at her approvingly.

Then Su Xing raised his right hand and turned to point toward the two bastards.

"Railgun!"

Crackle, crackle, crackle~

Blue Lightning flickered across Su Xing's right arm.

Zhu Zhuqing was speechless at Su Xing's words. I don't need you to tell me whether you were right about me.

This was...

But Zhu Zhuqing was soon drawn to Su Xing's actions. What was he trying to do?

Was he going to attack those two from here? But they were far too far away!

Could this guy's Martial Soul be meant for long-range attacks?

Boom!

Yet when Su Xing's Railgun blasted out, Zhu Zhuqing was stunned. The entire world in her eyes seemed to suddenly darken, leaving only that Railgun streaking past in a flash!

Boom!

Then she saw the two scumbags Su Xing had knocked unconscious get hit by his Railgun and explode directly, in an utterly bloody scene.

They could not have been any deader.

"So strong!"

Zhu Zhuqing was not frightened by the bloody sight. Her eyes were filled only with shock at Su Xing's Railgun.

The way Zhu Zhuqing looked at Su Xing immediately changed.

Before this, she only knew that Su Xing was as talented as she was, roughly the same age and at the same level.

This time, she was completely shaken by the power of Su Xing's Spirit Skill.

With that terrifying speed and power, she knew that if she faced it herself, she would not have the slightest chance of resisting.

"Σ_("∠) Blegh~"

However, Su Xing, who should have looked very cool just then, could not hold it in any longer. His face went pale as he dry-heaved.

Even from so far away, Su Xing had clearly seen how miserably the two had died!

It had not seemed like much while he was attacking. This was the Douluo world! Not killing people was impossible; it was bound to happen sooner or later.

But after truly killing someone, Su Xing realized that he could not face it as calmly as he had thought.

After all, he was someone with proper values.

"..."

Zhu Zhuqing immediately leaped away from Su Xing and looked at him speechlessly.

Just moments ago, she had thought Su Xing was unbelievably strong. Now, she only felt that he was nothing special.

It was even a little funny!

"This is your first time killing someone, isn't it? It's fine. Keep throwing up, and you'll get used to it!"

Although she had never killed anyone herself, Zhu Zhuqing knew what was wrong with Su Xing. Holding back her laughter, she offered him some consolation.

As for those two being killed, she did not think Su Xing had gone too far.

"Cough, cough..."

"Those two bastards wouldn't even spare a girl as young as you. They must have harmed plenty of people. They got what they deserved!"

After vomiting for a while, Su Xing began listing their crimes to make himself feel better.

It really worked. After saying that, Su Xing felt much better.

"You're not much better than they are!"

Zhu Zhuqing snorted coldly.

"..."

"Don't compare me to them. I'm much more handsome than they are!"

Give me your votes! The more recommendation votes there are, the more motivated the author will be, and the more updates there'll be!
