A Complete Break!

"I came all the way to the Heaven Dou Empire."

"Do you know how many times I narrowly escaped death along the way?"

Zhu Zhuqing spoke with an indifferent expression, as though she were questioning Dai Mubai, yet also questioning herself.

Was it worth it?

Now, she had decided to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. As long as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could help her settle this matter, she would have nothing more to do with Dai Mubai!

"Zhuqing, I, I..."

Dai Mubai was at a loss for words. Zhu Zhuqing's icy gaze and frosty expression left him unable to say anything for a moment.

But thinking carefully, no matter what mistakes he, Dai Mubai, had made, did Zhu Zhuqing really have to question him like this in public?

Besides, he was Zhu Zhuqing's fiancé. Her words had humiliated him—was that what a fiancée should do?

How had she narrowly escaped death? Wasn't she perfectly fine?

What Dai Mubai found hardest to accept was that Zhu Zhuqing had actually betrayed the Zhu Family, betrayed the Dai Family, betrayed him, Dai Mubai, and chosen to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!

Once Zhu Zhuqing joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, wouldn't he, Dai Mubai, become completely alone?

Dai Mubai understood that much clearly enough.

With that thought, Dai Mubai glared furiously at Zhu Zhuqing and said, "Zhu Zhuqing, how could you betray the family, betray the Dai Family, and join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"

"Someone like you isn't worth supporting."

Zhu Zhuqing answered indifferently.

Dai Mubai's Soul Power instantly erupted. He was accustomed to solving problems with force.

What Zhu Zhuqing had done already counted as betrayal. Cleaning house was what he ought to do.

Dai Mubai was Level Thirty-seven, while Zhu Zhuqing was Level Twenty-seven. How could she possibly be his match? Yet she did not resist. This was enough for her to see Dai Mubai for who he really was.

If Dai Mubai had not become angry just now and had instead tried to reason with Zhu Zhuqing, she might have changed her mind and stayed to face things with Dai Mubai.

But the way Dai Mubai had driven off those twin sisters, coupled with how he had not cared in the slightest whether she lived or died, directly crushed Zhu Zhuqing's last straw.

At that very moment, Zhu Zhuqing completely severed ties with Dai Mubai on her own.

"Dai Mubai, what do you think you're doing?!"

"Zhu Zhuqing has already joined my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. She is one of us now. Are you trying to make an enemy of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Ning Rongrong slammed her hand on the table and shouted angrily at Dai Mubai.

She was a spoiled, willful young lady who feared neither heaven nor earth. She looked down on people like Dai Mubai immensely!

It was clearly his fault, yet he actually wanted to use force against a woman!

A person like that truly deserved to die!

"Ning Rongrong, get out of the way! Others may fear you, but I, Dai Mubai, do not!"

"She is my, Dai Mubai's, fiancée. It is only natural for me to hit her. This has nothing to do with your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"

Dai Mubai roared, staring fixedly at Zhu Zhuqing. He had nearly felt guilty for someone who had betrayed him. She was not worth it!

Ning Rongrong was from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and could not be easily offended, but saying a few things was fine. Still, he could not truly lay hands on Ning Rongrong.

Just as he was about to shove Ning Rongrong aside and beat Zhu Zhuqing, a voice rang out.

"Dai Mubai, don't be angry! Anger lowers your intelligence. Well, never mind—you didn't have any to begin with."

Kong spoke sarcastically from the side.

The early Dai Mubai had even said that women were...

Kong had originally intended to watch the show. What did not concern him, he would not involve himself in. But Dai Mubai had crossed certain lines, and he could not pretend not to see it.

If you made a mistake, you had to admit it. If you got beaten, you had to stand straight.

He was actually preparing to hit a woman—this wasn't a spirit battle!

Besides, whether from an omniscient perspective or based on what had happened so far, Dai Mubai was the one in the wrong, yet he was still planning to strike first!

Fine, if Zhu Zhuqing had not been pretty, Kong would not have planned to intervene.

He simply did not want to see a slap mark left on that pretty face. He, Kong, was a good person.

Even the Spark Knight in Mondstadt had once said that he, Kong, was a good person!

Hearing this, Dai Mubai's entire body trembled. In his rage, he had been about to curse a few times, but then he found the voice somewhat familiar and turned toward its source.

One look was enough to give him a fright.

In his anger, he had completely forgotten about the spectators here!

He could not afford to offend either of these two spectators!

Setting aside their backgrounds, either of them could deal with him in mere minutes. After all, unlike Ning Rongrong, who had backing but little combat power as an auxiliary-type Soul Master, these two were different.

One of them had even severely injured a Seventy-sixth Level Power Attack Type Soul Saint with a single soul skill...

Dai Mubai swallowed hard and looked at Kong in confusion. He clearly had not offended the other party, so why had he suddenly said something like that?

If anyone else had said that, Dai Mubai would have immediately used Martial Soul Possession and taught them exactly what they could and couldn't say.

That was assuming he could beat them...

"Kong, I knew you wouldn't just stand by! This Dai Mubai has gone way too far!"

Ning Rongrong said excitedly to Kong. They had a Soul Emperor on their side—yet Dai Mubai still dared to make a move? He was courting death!

"This has nothing to do with you. I simply look down on people like Dai Mubai."

Kong waved a hand and gently pushed away Ning Rongrong, who had run over intending to hug his arm. His expression remained blank as he spoke.

That tiny gesture and those indifferent words struck Ning Rongrong like lightning, leaving her rooted to the spot.

This guy hadn't stepped forward because of her?

For some reason, she felt so angry!

"Yu Tiankong, this has nothing to do with you, does it?"

Dai Mubai said stiffly. Why did the other man look down on him?

What right did he have to look down on him?!

He was a prince of the Star Luo Empire!

Of everyone present, whose status was higher than his?

Even the Young Sect Masters of the Upper Three Sects might not necessarily outrank him.

A sect was still just a sect. Before a behemoth like an empire, what did the Upper Three Sects amount to?

"Kid, who the fuck are you? Boss Dai is handling his family business—is it your place to butt in?"

Ma Hongjun said to Kong with an annoyed expression.

He and Dai Mubai were on the same side. As for Dai Mubai making him take the blame earlier, Ma Hongjun had already tossed that to the back of his mind.

He didn't understand things like clans and families, but he understood the word betrayal.

Besides, Zhu Zhuqing had betrayed Dai Mubai. Wasn't it only right for Dai Mubai to teach her a lesson?

Every random freak and monster had to come out and interfere. Even Ma Hongjun couldn't stand watching it anymore!

Ning Rongrong was arrogant, and that Little Blondie was even more contemptuous of everyone else. How could he tolerate that?

Anyway, Ma Hongjun couldn't tolerate it!

Dai Mubai: "I can!"

At that moment, Dai Mubai was completely numb. Turning to look at Ma Hongjun, who was pointing at Kong, cold sweat began pouring down his back...
