I Know All His Weaknesses, but He Shouldn't Lose!

Everyone except Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Oscar, and a few others watched the spectacle.

They didn't understand what had gotten into Dai Mubai, but he was their "big" brother. He had to have his reasons.

There was still something worth watching when someone got bullied.

"Zhu Zhuqing, only a good-for-nothing is afraid to stir up trouble!"

Ma Hongjun grinned at Zhu Zhuqing.

"Exactly. That's what the dean taught us. Look, aren't the dean and the teachers watching the show too?"

Oscar pointed at Flender and the others with a smile.

Zhongli was just an ordinary man. So what if they bullied him?

He had a Martial Soul like that but no Soul Power. He had it coming!

"W-we're not ordinary people!"

"Zhongli is..."

Paimon seemed to remember something. She paused, then continued, "We're Guest Officials of the Crown Prince's Mansion!"

"Even His Highness the Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe, treats us with respect!"

The words seemed to steady Paimon. She planted her hands on her hips and floated out from behind Zhongli, looking smug.

"Huh?"

Everyone froze. Zhongli was actually a Guest Official of the Crown Prince's Mansion?

He had no Soul Power, yet the Crown Prince's Mansion treated him with respect?

That...

Wasn't the little creature just making things up?

What kind of damn Guest Official is he?

Hell, I'm the Third Prince of the Star Luo Empire!

Dai Mubai's face was full of disdain.

If Corrosion had not worn away so much of Zhongli's temper, none of them would still have been standing.

How arrogant had Morax been during the God-Devil War?

Even before the Heavenly Principles, he had been the one who sat with his legs crossed!

The other Demon Gods had been appointed to the Seven Archons of the Mortal World by the Heavenly Principles.

Morax was different. He had signed a contract with the Heavenly Principles.

Without a Gnosis, certain Gods lost the source of their power. Zhongli was different. Without a Gnosis, he was still Morax!

The effect on his fighting strength was less than 0.1 percent...

If the Vago Rock Emperor faced Morax at his peak, could he defeat him?

"I know all his strength and weaknesses, but he was in his prime then. He shouldn't lose."

Put simply, Morax back then could not lose, and he must not lose.

Knock him down once, and he would rise again for the people behind him and keep fighting.

Paimon's words made everyone hesitate. Should they stop Dai Mubai?

They had only just arrived in Heaven Dou City when they offended the Heaven Dou Fourth Prince and gave him a beating.

Were they going to offend the Crown Prince now too?

At this rate, they would scarcely be able to take a step in Heaven Dou City without trouble.

"Miss, have we met?"

Zhongli did not spare Dai Mubai a glance. Instead, he looked at Zhu Zhuqing in puzzlement.

He saw something unusual in her eyes: the gleam that appeared when someone spotted a familiar face.

"Hiss..."

Everyone drew a sharp breath. Zhongli had guts!

Dai Mubai was picking a fight, and Zhongli ignored him.

He went straight to chatting with Dai Mubai's fiancée!

"Have we met?"

What a cheap pickup line!

Surely even an inexperienced girl would not fall for that?

"N-no, we haven't."

His voice sounded so much like the Lord of Geo's, and he gave her almost the same sense of safety. Zhu Zhuqing blushed and lowered her gaze to her toes.

What the hell are you blushing for?!

Dai Mubai felt as though his hair had turned green!

The Shrek group was dumbfounded too. They had never seen Zhu Zhuqing like this.

She had always worn a stern face and rarely smiled.

She was like that with everyone, which had led them to believe she simply had a cold, aloof nature.

Never had they imagined Zhu Zhuqing would blush upon meeting this man with no Soul Power!

That shy look, that expression—no matter how they looked at it, she seemed like a girl in the throes of first love!

"Hiss..."

"Has Boss Dai been cuckolded?"

Ma Hongjun drew a sharp breath and blurted it out.

His scalp prickled. Dai Mubai had always been the one to cuckold others, but now someone else had done it to him.

What went around came around. Who could escape heaven's reckoning?

Wait. If he thought about it that way, his own fate probably would not be much better!

Ma Hongjun had not lowered his voice. Who there could have missed it?

Dai Mubai's fists clenched, and Soul Power churned throughout his body, ready to erupt at any moment.

He looked at Zhongli's expressionless face, then at Zhu Zhuqing, who was still blushing. Rage consumed his reason.

He already had a foul temper and bullied the weak at the slightest disagreement. How could Dai Mubai hold back now?

"We haven't met. Of course. That makes sense."

Zhongli nodded as though nothing were amiss. He had crossed into this world just over half a month ago, and this was his first meeting with Zhu Zhuqing. It was only natural that they did not know each other.

Yet Zhu Zhuqing's reaction made him frown.

Something about the way she said they had not met felt strange.

What could be the reason?

Then there was Qian Renxue. The fear that had flashed through her eyes the first time she saw him could not have been faked.

But why?

Dai Mubai was about to strike when a voice rang out.

"Guest Official, I nearly forgot something!"

A refined, easygoing figure appeared before them.

He wore an apologetic expression, as though he truly regretted it.

It was "Xue Qinghe," who had returned after leaving.

"Your Highness, come quickly! This man wants to beat up Zhongli and Paimon!"

At the sight of "Xue Qinghe," Paimon hurriedly flew over to him and began telling on Dai Mubai.

"What!"

"Xue Qinghe's" expression changed. In broad daylight, under the clear heavens, these people were actually preparing to attack Mr. Zhongli!

"That big... big sister! Yes, only that big sister spoke up for us."

Paimon glanced at Zhu Zhuqing and described her by her most noticeable feature.

"Xue Qinghe" paused, then shifted his gaze away without a trace.

Good grief. That girl looked so young. Why were her pectorals so exaggerated?!

"Oh, it really is the Crown Prince!"

Ning Rongrong murmured.

She had met "Xue Qinghe" before. In fact, he was her senior fellow disciple.

Her father, Ning Fengzhi, was "Xue Qinghe's" teacher.

The two of them had met several times.

"Junior Sister Rong Rong?"

"Xue Qinghe" surveyed the Shrek group, his gaze settling on Ning Rongrong.

She had never imagined Ning Fengzhi would let his daughter study with a pack of brutes like these.

How strange.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

Since she had been recognized, Ning Rongrong stopped pretending and stepped out of the crowd.

The Shrek group was stunned. Zhongli really was a Guest Official of the Crown Prince's Mansion?

What on earth did the Crown Prince see in Zhongli?

A Guest Official with no Soul Power!

As though something had occurred to her, "Xue Qinghe's" expression changed.

"You..."
