Dead Dog Lying on Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing Owes Xiao Chen a Great Debt

"Dai Laoda, are you alright?!"

Seeing Dai Mubai cough up blood from anger on the spot, Oscar panicked and hurriedly helped him up.

However, Dai Mubai paid no attention to Oscar's support. His eyes remained fixed on Zhu Zhuqing before him.

His voice trembled as he spoke each word through clenched teeth, fury blazing from his entire body.

"You... do you even know what you were doing just now?"

"Hehe, what right does someone who only knows how to go out and find women every day have to question what our Zhuqing wants to do? Trash like you doesn't deserve to be Zhuqing's fiancé at all."

"Brother Xiao Chen, hurry and take Zhuqing back to her room. I don't want to see that piece of trash anymore. He makes me sick."

Dai Mubai had only just spoken when, before Zhu Zhuqing could say anything, Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu poked their heads out from the window one after another and spoke with disdain.

At that, a flicker of hesitation appeared in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, but it lasted only an instant before she calmly spoke seven words.

"I know very well. I don't regret it."

She knew that she had already caused Xiao Chen and the other two a great deal of trouble.

No matter what, tonight's matter had to be resolved as soon as possible. It could not be dragged out any longer.

"You bitch! I curse you dog adulterers..."

Hearing that, Dai Mubai roared on the spot, his eyes wide with rage.

Unfortunately, before he could continue cursing, Xiao Chen sent him flying again with another slap.

This time, Dai Mubai could no longer endure it.

His eyes rolled back, his body twitched a few times, and then he fainted on the spot.

Even Oscar, who had originally wanted to get a share of the spoils and play with Zhu Zhuqing in the future, nearly fell flat on his ass.

"Ow, ow, ow."

"If you have nothing else to do, hurry and drag this guy back. Otherwise, I can't guarantee he'll still be alive the next time I make a move."

"Huh? We're leaving, we're leaving right now! Junior, don't make a move. Please, don't make a move! It's not necessary, really..."

Oscar had still been grimacing in pain, but after hearing Xiao Chen's words, his expression immediately turned awful.

Without any hesitation, Oscar dragged Dai Mubai away, muttering continuously to make his stance clear, afraid that Xiao Chen might be displeased.

However, Oscar was only a Support Type soul master, and he had been injured just now. Besides, it was already late at night.

Thus, Oscar failed to notice that Dai Mubai was being dragged along with his face pressed against the ground.

When Dai Mubai woke up tomorrow, he would find that half his face had practically been ruined, turning him into an ugly freak on the same level as Tang San.

"..."

Xiao Chen watched silently without saying a word.

He naturally noticed that Oscar was dragging Dai Mubai incorrectly, but he had no intention of reminding him.

From the moment Dai Mubai came here to cause trouble for him, this outcome had already been destined.

After all, he was not some great saint who would let bygones be bygones after being provoked.

Repay grudges with grudges, grievances with grievances, and kindness with kindness.

That was Xiao Chen—clear in matters of gratitude and resentment!

"Let's go. Back to your room."

The next moment, Xiao Chen released Zhu Zhuqing from his embrace and opened the door, signaling for her to go back.

Zhu Zhuqing's intimate actions with him just now had largely been because of Dai Mubai, because she wanted to retaliate against him.

Now that Dai Mubai had left, he naturally needed to restore the distance that had previously existed between him and Zhu Zhuqing.

After all, he could clearly sense the unease and slight resistance coming from Zhu Zhuqing after Dai Mubai's departure.

If he continued forcing things, Zhu Zhuqing might endure it because of the help he had just given her, but their relationship might also end there.

Take things slowly, earn her trust, then steadily raise her affection.

That was the correct path!

"Th-thank you."

"No need to thank me. If you really want to thank me, then go back and cultivate properly."

Hearing that, Zhu Zhuqing immediately understood and nodded heavily.

She had now completely fallen out with Dai Mubai. To avoid being affected by him in the future, and to guard against the possibility that he might suddenly force himself on her one day...

She truly needed to cultivate diligently now.

However, not long after Zhu Zhuqing returned to the dormitory, thanked Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, and went back to her spot to cultivate, Xiao Chen suddenly entered her field of vision.

"You?"

Confusion and a trace of wariness flickered in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes.

She was grateful for Xiao Chen's help and had a favorable impression of him, but not to the point of directly offering herself to him.

Seeing this, Xiao Chen said nothing more. He raised a hand and took several items from his soul tool ring, then placed them on Zhu Zhuqing's blanket.

After doing that, he paid no heed to Zhu Zhuqing's thoughts and turned to leave.

"Use these things well. Cultivate properly, and strive to grow stronger soon—stronger than that guy Dai Mubai."

"Ah?"

Upon hearing that, Zhu Zhuqing immediately panicked and instinctively wanted to refuse.

After all, she already owed Xiao Chen far too much.

If she accepted Xiao Chen's gifts again, then for the rest of her life, she would probably never be able to repay the kindness he had shown her!

"Zhuqing, you don't want me to have to step in and help you every time Dai Mubai comes looking for you, do you?"

"...Alright. Thank you."

Zhu Zhuqing, who had just been about to return the items, suddenly stiffened. Then, she sighed helplessly in her heart.

In the end, she still chose to accept them.

Because Xiao Chen was right. If she did not become stronger as soon as possible—stronger than Dai Mubai—

then the next time they met, Dai Mubai might very well take out his anger on Xiao Chen because of her.

Dai Mubai, Dai Mubai... It was bad enough that you disgusted me. Why did you have to make me owe Xiao Chen such a huge debt of gratitude?

After all, no matter how young Zhu Zhuqing was, she could tell that every item Xiao Chen had given her was extremely valuable.

"..."

Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing had ultimately accepted everything, Xiao Chen immediately felt pleased.

Because among the things he had given Zhu Zhuqing was that Starry Night Cat's Eye!

Zhu Zhuqing was still cultivating, so she had not put everything away yet. They were still lying on the blanket.

However, once Zhu Zhuqing finished cultivating and began sorting through those items, she would naturally come into contact with the Starry Night Cat's Eye.

At that time, he would naturally gain Zhu Zhuqing's trust!

With that thought, Xiao Chen suddenly turned to look toward the back mountain of Shrek Academy, a hidden glint flashing in his eyes.

Just now, his God-Slaying Sword Martial Soul had suddenly transmitted an unusual fluctuation. Coupled with the current point in the timeline—

it was obvious that Tang Hao had come to beat up Zhao Wuji!

"Ding!"

"Congratulations to the host for triggering a Hidden Quest..."
