Soul Land: Zhu Zhuqing Keeps Watch!
Wang Yue knew that Zhu Zhuqing had told him to go first not merely out of respect, but also out of wariness!
If he showed any ill intent, Zhu Zhuqing's first reaction would be to turn and flee. Though a grand soul master might not necessarily escape from a soul king, Zhu Zhuqing was still prepared to make the attempt.
Since he understood Zhu Zhuqing's little thoughts, Wang Yue did not even look back afterward. He simply followed the official road northward!
Only after passing through a town did he hire a carriage and head toward Heaven Dou City!
Zhu Zhuqing remained extremely vigilant along the way. Even while seated in the carriage, she sat by the door rather than in the more comfortable seats!
It was not until the carriage arrived outside Heaven Dou City that Zhu Zhuqing finally relaxed!
It was not that a woman of the Zhu Family from the Star Luo Kingdom was particularly safe in Heaven Dou City. Rather, women simply felt safer in crowded places. After all, whenever a beautiful woman encountered trouble, there would always be someone willing to step forward and uphold justice.
Zhu Zhuqing could not really be blamed for being so guarded against Wang Yue. Their meeting had been far too sudden, and they had no deep bond between them!
Wang Yue's so-called rescue had not involved any life-and-death battle, so there had been no emotional foundation built between them. That was what had created this situation!
Wang Yue did not mind much. He simply wandered around Heaven Dou City with Zhu Zhuqing.
Of course, Wang Yue was not truly sightseeing. He was searching for the Dugu Family's location. He had to make sure Dugu Bo was home before entering the Ice and Fire
