Only Crippled Mubai Is a Good Mubai

When Ning Chuan removed his mask and shed his Black Robe, emerging from the spirit master passage of the two-on-two Soul Arena with Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Ma Hongjun had already finished their respective matches. Aside from Dai Mubai losing to Ning Chuan and being despised by Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, everyone else had won their Soul Arena matches. It was a decent result.

"Little Six, Zhuqing, how did it go? Black Bro and I won both of our matches."

Seeing Ning Chuan and Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu immediately came up to them.

Ning Chuan smiled. "Not bad. Our opponents were quite strong, so it took a little more effort."

Hearing this, everyone knew the two had won their two-on-two match. Zhu Zhuqing's strength aside, Ning Chuan's strength was there for all to see.

Dai Mubai snorted and said to Ma Hongjun, "Fatty, didn't the Dean tell you to visit his shop? I'll go with you."

At those words, excitement immediately flashed in Ma Hongjun's tiny eyes. "What, Boss Dai? You're finally done pretending? Makes sense. You should've given up long ago. Hanging yourself from one tree doesn't suit your style, Boss Dai."

Dai Mubai shot Ma Hongjun an annoyed glare. "Cut the crap. Are you going or not? If not, I'll go find those twins myself."

He was blatantly telling Zhu Zhuqing that he was going to the brothel, hoping to get back at her and make her regret it.

Yet Zhu Zhuqing acted as though she had not heard him. She remained silent from beginning to end and never even glanced at Dai Mubai.

This only made him even angrier.

"Going. Of course I'm going." Ma Hongjun looked at Tang San, his plump face reddening with excitement. "Tang San, are you coming?"

Ma Hongjun thought Tang San looked even more pathetic than himself. It was probably impossible for him to find a girlfriend in this lifetime, so he invited him along.

Whether he was pretending or not, Tang San seemed not to understand what Ma Hongjun meant. "Go do what?"

Xiao Wu snorted. "What else could they be doing? The Lecherous Tiger is planning to find those twins, and this fatty must be unable to suppress his Evil Fire, so he's going to ruin some girls."

Ma Hongjun corrected her, "We're not ruining anyone. We're doing our part to save fallen girls. Besides, don't you know there's a place in this world called a brothel?"

"You're actually going to a place like that?" Tang San looked utterly incredulous.

Dai Mubai glanced at Zhu Zhuqing. Seeing that she still had no reaction, he grew even more irritated and said impatiently, "Enough nonsense. Tang San, are you going or not? If you come, your brother here will book you a courtesan tonight."

"Forget it. You two can go yourselves. I'm not interested in that sort of place." Tang San glanced at Xiao Wu, afraid she would misunderstand.

Hearing that, Dai Mubai did not press him further and left with Ma Hongjun.

After Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun left, Zhu Zhuqing finally spoke. "As expected, men are all filthy."

Xiao Wu giggled. "Sister Zhuqing, forget everyone else. Ning Chuan is very clean."

Zhu Zhuqing did not refute her.

Afraid that Xiao Wu would misunderstand him, Tang San protested, "Xiao Wu, I'm clean too."

"Yes, yes, you're very clean too..." Xiao Wu replied perfunctorily, then looked at Ning Chuan. "Come on, Little Six. We should head back."

Ning Chuan shook his head. "You go on ahead. I have some things to take care of. I'll catch up with you later."

Since Dai Mubai was going to the brothel, Ning Chuan naturally would not miss this opportunity. After all, only a crippled Dai Mubai could be considered a good Dai Mubai.

After saying that, Ning Chuan turned and left.

"He's not going to the brothel too, is he?"

Wanting to lower Ning Chuan's standing in Xiao Wu's heart, even if only by a little, Tang San deliberately asked in surprise.

Instead, he earned a scolding from Xiao Wu. "You're the one who'd go to a brothel. Little Black, how many times have I told you not to badmouth Little Six behind his back? If you keep this up, I really won't talk to you anymore." Angry, Xiao Wu did not even call him Black Bro, directly calling him Little Black instead.

Zhu Zhuqing also spoke up for once. "I hate people who maliciously slander others behind their backs too."

"Exactly. Zhuqing, let's go." With that, Xiao Wu stepped forward and took Zhu Zhuqing's hand, and the two quickly left.

Tang San was left alone in the wind, disheveled and indignant. Of course, that indignation was directed at Ning Chuan. Then, afraid Xiao Wu truly would stop speaking to him, he hurried after them, apologizing over and over.

Elsewhere, after leaving the Suotuo City Grand Soul Arena, Ning Chuan put on a half-face mask and headed straight to a secluded alley, where he found a small shop with a sign reading "Adult Shop."

The shop was simply furnished, with only a built-in shelf and a counter. Explicit books and magazines sat on the shelf, while bottles and jars of various sizes were displayed on the counter.

The adult shop owner lounged leisurely in a rocking chair without even looking at Ning Chuan. He merely said lazily, "The goods are all on the counter. Pick for yourself. Five Silver Soul Coins for a large bottle, three for a small one. No bargaining."

Without wasting words, Ning Chuan took out a bag of Gold Soul Coins and tossed it into the owner's arms.

The owner weighed it in his hand. There were over a hundred coins. His eyes immediately lit up, and he sprang to his feet, pocketing the Gold Soul Coins as he looked at Ning Chuan with a fawning smile. "What does the customer need?"

"A large quantity, powerful effects, and lasting." Ning Chuan answered blandly.

"Ah, then you've come to the right person."

The adult shop owner darted behind the counter and swept away all the bottles and jars. Then he took out three differently styled jars from underneath, each bearing a label.

As he spoke, he seemed to remember something and took out a small bottle from a hidden compartment in the counter. "The treasure of our shop: I Love a Piece of Wood. Don't let its small size fool you. Even an elephant would walk on five legs after smelling it."

"Very good. I'll take them all." Ning Chuan stored the three jars in his Soul Tool and accepted the bottle.

"Customer, remember this well. You must never drink it. Just take a whiff..." the owner reminded him.

"What happens if it's consumed?"

This is exactly the effect I want. As for the other three holy medicines, I'll consider them gifts for Dai Mubai to use later.

I'll give him a dose every day from now on.

Ning Chuan smiled inwardly, pulled out the stopper, and drank it all in front of the owner.

A wave of scorching heat immediately surged from below his waist.

Ding. Side Effect I Love a Piece of Wood detected. Please select a target to bear it.

"Bind it to Dai Mubai."

The System text immediately changed.

Side Effect: I Love a Piece of Wood.

Designated recipient of Side Effect: Dai Mubai

"Dai Mubai is a Power Attack Type spirit master and has a Beast Spirit. He probably won't die that easily. Hehehe... Dai Mubai, I hope you like this gift from me."

After transferring the Side Effect, Ning Chuan left as if nothing had happened.

The only one left behind was the utterly bewildered shop owner.
