Zhu Zhuqing Sells Herself
"Stop!"
Since Xiao Wu and Dugu Yan didn't care if there were other people around him, why would Lin Xuan be hesitant?
There is only one problem facing us now.
That depends on whether Zhu Zhuqing is willing.
If she's unwilling, then Lin Xuan has no interest in protecting her.
He may be capable, but that doesn't mean he's willing to be taken advantage of.
Upon hearing Lin Xuan's words, the Dragon Scale Horse, which had been galloping at full speed, instantly stopped.
At the same time, he turned around and looked in the direction where Zhu Zhuqing was.
As the Dragon Scale Horse stopped, Zhu Zhuqing also stopped about ten meters away from Lin Xuan and the others.
However, Zhu Zhuqing's condition was not much better at this time.
The Dragon Scale Horse is at least a high-level Thousand Year Soul Beast, Zhu Zhuqing is only a level 27 Soul Grandmaster.
They were truly chasing after it with their lives on the line.
His face was pale, and he was soaked in sweat, revealing his exaggerated figure.
Xiao Wu and Dugu Yan felt somewhat ashamed of themselves after seeing this.
Zhu Zhuqing stood in front of the Dragon Scale Horse. Although Lin Xuan and the others did not release their aura, the oppressive feeling brought by the Dragon Scale Horse alone was enough to make Zhu Zhuqing feel pressured.
But she persevered despite her gritting her teeth.
Because she knew this was her only chance to survive.
Dai Mubai had completely disappointed her, even driven her to despair.
All she wanted was to live.
"Something wrong!?"
Lin Xuan nodded slightly as he watched Zhu Zhuqing perform her wet and seductive act.
"I want to follow you; please teach me how to become stronger."
Zhu Zhuqing's expression remained cold; even when she was asking for a favor, her emotions showed little change.
Her life has been full of ups and downs, especially after the Second Prince of Xingluo failed in his challenge more than two years ago and was killed along with his fiancée. Her only thought for life has been to find a way to survive.
Or rather, besides surviving, she also wanted to become stronger, because only by becoming stronger could she prevent others from easily taking her life.
Of all the people she knew, Lin Xuan and Xiao Wu were definitely on a completely different level of strength.
If they are willing to teach me, even if I can't become as strong as them, I will definitely be stronger than my sister.
"Little sister, you don't know how much trouble you'll get behind the scenes if you follow us."
You expect us to take such great risks for you and help you become stronger just by making empty promises?
We are not a charity.
Xiao Wu said lazily.
Although I feel sorry for Zhu Zhuqing, neither she nor Lin Xuan are the ones who should suffer a loss.
Or, to put it another way, we need to help Zhu Zhuqing see the situation clearly.
Lin Xuan shared the same thought.
He certainly didn't want to raise a Bibi Dong.
There is no such thing as a free lunch with him.
Everything he has given must yield some reward.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing clenched her fist slightly.
Indeed, there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
However, since she came, she had already made preparations.
Judging from the way Lin Xuan was attacked by Xiao Wu and Dugu Yan, she knew that Lin Xuan was not a devoted person.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have hardened her heart and chased after him.
Because she had nothing of value left except herself.
But she didn't feel like she was at a disadvantage.
Because Xiao Wu and Dugu Yan get along very well.
At least she seems fine; if she joins, she shouldn't be bullied too badly.
She can accept being bullied; as long as she can survive and become stronger, she can endure any hardship.
"I... I'm offering myself to you. You can make me do whatever you want, just let me live and teach me how to become stronger."
Zhu Zhuqing looked up at the three of them, her eyes filled with only the desire to live.
"Tsk, what kind of people has the Star Luo Empire driven them to? They're even making requests like this."
Xiao Wu looked at Zhu Zhuqing's stubborn face and couldn't help but shake her head.
"Brother Xuan, you handle this as you see fit."
Xiao Wu has already accepted Zhu Zhuqing; this guy probably suffered a lot since he was young.
With Dai Mubai's provocation, they might already be completely desperate.
Most importantly, Xiao Wu saw in Zhu Zhuqing a tenacity that neither she nor Dugu Yan possessed.
Perhaps she is a little less talented, but given the opportunity, she may not be any worse than anyone else in the future.
Perhaps I could become a source of assistance for Brother Xuan.
Since that's the case, then it's not impossible to reluctantly accept him as my second henchman.
Zhu Zhuqing also looked at Lin Xuan, a rare pleading look appearing in her calm eyes.
"Remember what you said. If I ever find out that you've been even slightly dishonest, I'll kill you on the spot."
Lin Xuan hadn't expected things to go so smoothly.
This is practically like getting it for free.
"Yes!"
Zhu Zhuqing's clenched fist involuntarily loosened.
It felt like a huge boulder pressing down on me had suddenly been lifted up by someone else.
I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief, both physically and mentally.
Then, in the next second, everything went blurry and he fell forward.
"Oh my god!"
Before Lin Xuan could react, Xiao Wu in his arms vanished instantly and reappeared beside Zhu Zhuqing, embracing her.
Zhu Zhuqing is now their property; they can't afford to break her.
"Brother Xuan, it was probably due to exhaustion and mental relaxation that caused him to faint."
"Nothing serious."
Xiao Wu checked it and turned to Lin Xuan, saying...
She found an ally for herself, not someone to hold her back.
"Since there's nothing else wrong, let's take it with us and get out of the Star Dou Great Forest first."
Lin Xuan reached out, Blue Silver Vine Entangle the two of them, pulling them back in front of him.
He held Xiao Wu in his arms, while Xiao Wu held the unconscious Zhu Zhuqing in her arms.
"Tsk, I have to say, that figure is really good."
Brother Xuan, you've struck gold.
Xiao Wu looked at Zhu Zhuqing in her arms and couldn't help but click her tongue twice.
Only after getting her hands on him did she realize just how oversized Zhu Zhuqing's figure really was.
"It's alright, at least I'm not losing money."
Lin Xuan glanced at it as well, and nodded slightly, neither denying it.
However, he didn't think Zhu Zhuqing was at a disadvantage. Following him, what he had to give up was far more than Zhu Zhuqing's original value.
However, Zhu Zhuqing ultimately belongs to him, so it's not unreasonable to say he made a profit.
Despite carrying four people, the Dragon Scale Horse felt no pressure whatsoever.
After letting out a neigh, it once again headed out of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Next, Lin Xuan planned to return to Sunset Forest again.
Dugu Bo had almost finished preparing Dugu Yan's Fifth Soul Ring, and the time spent traveling was just enough for Dugu Yan to cultivate and break through.
Meanwhile, during Lin Xuan's journey...
Tang San fled the Star Dou Great Forest amidst sparks and lightning.
Then they headed straight for the Shrek Academy.
Even if he wanted to run away, he would have to take Bibi Dong with him.
It's not that he was particularly respectful of his teachers.
Moreover, Bibi Dong is now his only backer.
