"I'm Here to Sow Discord," Curious Cat

Their conversation attracted a lot of attention, after all, they were obviously glamorous Soul Master, and all of them were handsome men and beautiful women.

Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment, then nodded and walked towards the door first.

"Are you planning to recruit her?"

Dugu Yan leaned close to Han Li's ear and asked in a low voice.

"Recruit? No, I don't have that idea yet. It's just a casual chat, something I did on a whim."

Han Li did not speak, but instead used his Soul Bone Skill to transmit his voice into the minds of several people.

Hearing his words, the others nodded thoughtfully, which was consistent with his usual style. They just didn't know what he would talk about with this second young lady of the Zhu Family.

The teahouse wasn't far; they arrived at the door in just a few dozen steps.

"Two private rooms."

Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing did not speak, Han Li took the initiative to step forward and speak.

"Please come in, distinguished guests."

The waiters' smiles became much more sincere, and there was a minimum spending requirement for the private rooms.

The group went up to the second floor. After the others greeted Han Li, they chose a room to go into, leaving the two outside.

Aren't you coming in?

Han Li stepped inside first, casually chose a seat, and then looked at Zhu Zhuqing was still outside the door.

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at him, then walked in and sat down opposite him without saying a word.

Han Li didn't mind, and waited until the waiter brought all the things before asking him to help close the door.

He poured a cup of tea and handed it to her. Han Li picked up a grape, put it in his mouth, swallowed it, and then looked at Zhu Zhuqing.

"Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself. Han Li, the Spirit Hall Saint Child."

As he spoke, he took out the token, placed it on the table, and pushed it over.

Zhu Zhuqing neither drank the tea nor picked up the token; she simply stared at it for a while, seemingly trying to confirm its authenticity.

After a long while, she suddenly looked up.

"Your Holy Son Your Highness, what brings you here? It can't be as simple as just recognizing me, can it?"

"Given your status, you should know my situation and understand that I am currently of no value. Even if you have any ideas, you should go to Dai Weisi or Dai Mubai."

Han Li glanced at her and smiled, "Miss Zhu Qing has a very clear understanding of the situation and her own position."

Hearing his words, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but clench her fists under the table. What she said herself and what others said meant completely different things.

"I'm here to sow discord."

Then, she heard Han Li's next words, and her clenched hands unconsciously loosened a little, a look of surprise flashing across her usually cold face.

This Holy Son of the Spirit Hall doesn't seem very bright; he just said it to her face, directly telling her the purpose of his conversation with her.

"Why are you so surprised? I was just being a little blunt. Even if I hadn't said it, wouldn't you have thought the same thing?"

Han Li said casually, seemingly unconcerned that the person opposite him was an enemy in some sense.

Aren't you afraid I'll turn around and leave right now?

After a moment of silence, Zhu Zhuqing finally spoke.

"The door is right there, no one's stopping you. I just want to chat with you and maybe see if I can stir things up. You yourself said you're not an important person, so I'm too lazy to lie to you."

Han Li pointed towards the door, indicating that she could leave at any time.

It's always the same; his attitude is no different from that of his father, sister, and everyone else who knows her.

No one who knew her believed her, cared about her, or even bothered to offer false comfort. She just wanted to live; what was wrong with that?

But now, all she can do is search for Dai Mubai, who abandoned her and ran away alone; this is her only hope.

Thinking this, Zhu Zhuqing stood up and walked outside.

The moment she closed the door, she saw Han Li stand up as well.

At the same time, she also heard someone say, "It seems the Dai Clan will have another cat puppet. What a pity."

That one sentence made her stop in her tracks as she was closing the door.

She pushed the door open again and came in, looking at Han Li had already gotten up and was about to leave.

What did you mean by what you just said?

Zhu Zhuqing knew very well that when she pushed the door open again just now, she may have already made a wrong decision.

But she chose to trust her gut feeling this time.

She knew Han Li had said those words on purpose when she left, but she still returned without hesitation.

She didn't have many choices to begin with, so it wouldn't hurt to be willful once. Could things get any worse than they are now? She vaguely sensed that when Han Li said those words, and when he told her sister about Dai Mubai's recent situation, although the way he expressed it was different and both times she disliked him, the emotions he conveyed were similar.

To be honest, even after traveling all the way from the Star Luo Empire to the Heaven Dou Empire, she was still somewhat confused.

She didn't know if her choice was right or wrong, nor did she know if she came to find Dai Mubai because she truly saw hope, or if it was just a form of rebellion born from her unwillingness to continue her arduous cultivation.

Is it really that hard for her to just live?

She once fantasized that she was just a child from an ordinary family, even without decent Innate Soul Power or any so-called Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

At that time, would she have been able to feel the love of her family, instead of struggling to survive like she does now?

"Didn't you already leave?"

Zhu Zhuqing saw Han Li's hateful smile, and she felt that the person opposite her was mocking her.

Never mind, it doesn't matter anymore.

Zhu Zhuqing closed the door again, returned to her seat, and stared at Han Li without saying a word.

"Indeed, cats are the most curious creatures in the world."

Han Li looked at her and smiled, but Zhu Zhuqing across from him didn't react at all.

She truly didn't care, because she had never been proud of the Hell Spirit Cat. On the contrary, she probably hated her Martial Soul more than anyone else.

As for being described as a pet, she didn't care, because the Dai Clan had been doing this for a long time, and it was a fact. Why should she get angry just because others said it bluntly? Besides, even if she did get angry, what could she do to the Spirit Hall Saint Child?

Seeing that she had no reaction, Han Li sighed inwardly.

This is a character he once liked. Although at that time he just thought she was very nice, he later felt that she was very pitiful.

Of course, there's also the most important point: I simply lust after her body.

But then I thought, she's become a god, what's so terrible about that? In short, I had very mixed feelings.

Now, sitting face to face, he still felt a little wistful.

Zhu Zhuqing observed his changing expression and waited for his answer. For a moment, the room fell silent.

After a while, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but speak up, since that was the purpose of her decision to return.

"Now, can you tell me what you meant by what you just said?"

"Are you sure you want to hear this? I told you before, I'm trying to sow discord between you two."

Han Li looked at her with a half-smile and asked again to confirm.

"I know. As for whether I believe you or not, I will make my own judgment. In that case, you have achieved your goal, haven't you?"

Zhu Zhuqing answered very calmly.

"Do you need me to repeat Dai Mubai's whereabouts and information to you?" Han Li provoked him again as soon as he came in.

"Need."

From Han Li's case, Zhu Zhuqing knew that her intelligence had already become outdated when she left Star Luo Empire.

Now that information has been delivered to her door, she decided to listen to it regardless of whether it was true or false.

"The Balak Kingdom, Suotuo City, Shrek Academy, the unlicensed kind, you should already know that."

"You've probably heard of the playboy from Suotuo City, the hotel's young master, but all he does is book a yearly hotel stay with two pregnant women. Hmm, given the royal family's style, you probably don't care too much."

Han Li casually recounted these semi-public intelligence reports, while observing Zhu Zhuqing's changing expressions, and found that she was indeed unmoved.

"Then, we come to the Soul Power Level you care about most, level thirty-seven. How about that? Not bad, is it?"

Han Li, seeing that Zhu Zhuqing finally reacted, teased her.

Of course, for Dai Mubai to reach this level at this age is indeed quite impressive, especially considering that he was indulging in frivolous pursuits and didn't put in much hard work.

The most outrageous thing is that Dai Mubai was promoted five levels in one year between the ages of twelve and thirteen. I don't know if it was because he suddenly ran away from the Star Luo Empire and unleashed his true nature.

"That's actually pretty good. It seems he hasn't completely given up."

A glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes.

"Yes, you're right."

Han Li did not refute her; instead, he went along with her and nodded in agreement.

However, Zhu Zhuqing noticed his emotional fluctuations; she realized that Han Li's outward behavior and inner emotions were completely opposite.

Is this his attempt to sow discord? But he was clearly praising Dai Mubai's cultivation speed.

Zhu Zhuqing was very confident in her intuition; so far, she had not made a mistake.

"Is this your attempt to sow discord? Or have you not even started yet?"

Zhu Zhuqing asked proactively, not believing that this was all there was to it.

"You're very perceptive."

Han Li gave her a meaningful look. "Of course, it hasn't started yet."

For some reason, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly felt a strong urge to escape.

But she quickly suppressed her emotions and remained seated, waiting for Han Li to speak.

"Very good, I like your curiosity. Now you'd better listen carefully."

Han Li's smile widened.

"In recent years, the Spirit Hall has discovered a problem related to Martial Soul Fusion Skill, but the sample size is still too small, so it has not been made public. However, after testing, some results have been obtained."

"Through our research, we have discovered that if Martial Soul Fusion Skill is performed with one side as the main body, then gradually, with the increase in the number of uses and the deeper the fusion, the supporter will gradually become the dominant one, and various choices will involuntarily lean towards him."

"In the end, the assistant will lose their own subjective thinking, as if they have become a different person, and become a complete puppet of the mastermind."

"Unfortunately, we have only confirmed three sets of samples and have not had the opportunity to test the ' Hell White Tiger '. Obviously, you will not allow us to conduct tests. Sigh."

"Miss Zhu Qing, can you enlighten me? Is our research right or wrong?"

Han Li first sighed regretfully, then looked at Zhu Zhuqing with a very curious expression, as if they were discussing related academic issues.

Meanwhile, Zhu Zhuqing on the opposite side was completely frozen in place.
