"As expected..."

Looking at Zhu Zhuqing's current state, Feng Xinglie's eyes were filled with disgust. He clearly remembered a seemingly insignificant description in the original work:

"At this moment, Dai Mubai suddenly discovered with surprise that the coldness that always existed in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes seemed to have disappeared. The way she looked at him carried a hint of dullness, and a special kind of emotion."

This strange narration gave Feng Xinglie a bold guess, and Zhu Zhuqing's current brainwashed-like behavior validated his idea.

"Martial Soul Fusion Skills have a primary and secondary distinction."

In Feng Xinglie's analysis, Martial Soul Fusion Skills were divided into two categories. One was equal, like Guimei and Yue Guan's Two-Pole Static Domain, where both sides formed half, cooperating with each other. The Hell White Tiger, to put it bluntly, was the White Tiger that gained Hell's power. In essence, it was still the White Tiger. In this situation, it became Dai Mubai as the primary and Zhu Zhuqing as the secondary. Coupled with the fusion of their powers into one during activation, it was easy for their thoughts to be imprinted. This explained why Zhu Zhuqing exhibited such abnormal behavior, and why Zhu Zhuqing, who clearly detested Dai Mubai in the future, suddenly became extremely tolerant, even obedient. This was also one of the methods the Star Luo imperial family used to control the Zhu family for generations.

Of course, this was not the only example. The Three-in-One Martial Soul Fusion Skill of the Golden Iron Triangle worked similarly, with Flender and Liu Erlong injecting their power into Yu Xiaogang's Luo Sanpao, causing it to evolve into the Golden Sacred Dragon for a short period. In this case, although Yu Xiaogang had the lowest Soul Power Level, because he occupied the dominant position in the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, it gradually changed his status in the hearts of the other two. This was also why Liu Erlong would always be devoted to him, and why Flender, who deeply loved Liu Erlong, would willingly sacrifice himself to fulfill Yu Xiaogang's desires. Otherwise, with his lack of appearance, character, and strength, coupled with his arrogance, how could Yu Xiaogang be the center of their lives, doted on by two individuals far superior to him in every aspect?

"Let me help her break... the hypnosis..."

Feng Xinglie, having sorted out the sequence of events in his mind, raised his hands and clapped them gently. Instantly, the crisp sound exploded like thunder in Zhu Zhuqing's ears, and her dazed expression immediately returned to normal. The first thing she saw after regaining her senses was Dai Mubai, with his arms spread wide and a lewd expression on his face, rushing towards her.

"No!"

Goosebumps erupted all over her body, and Zhu Zhuqing instinctively raised her leg and kicked. The kick was incredibly powerful, and Dai Mubai, lost in his lustful thoughts and completely unprepared, was sent flying backward, crashing below the stage. He struggled for a long time before he could get up.

"What's going on? Internal conflict? The Shrek Team suddenly eliminated one of their own..."

Ignoring the host's astonished shouts, Feng Xinglie turned and walked towards the outside of the Soul Fighting Arena. For him, the purpose of this soul fight had been achieved.

"Zhu Zhuqing! You slut!! I'll kill you!!!"

Not long after, Dai Mubai's furious roar echoed throughout the entire Soul Fighting Arena. Even with Tang San, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar working together, they couldn't restrain the enraged Evil Eyed White Tiger.

"Dai Mubai, we're finished. Don't ever come looking for me again. I will never use a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with you, nor will I marry you!"

On the other side, Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face was also as cold as frost, and she stared coldly at Dai Mubai.

"You think I care about you? Who knows what you've been doing in private all these years! You're not going to marry me? Is that something you get to decide? If you have the guts, go tell my father yourself! You dare to kick me? Today, I'll make sure you slut knows what family rules are!"

Dai Mubai, with his full fury unleashed, cursed as he pushed Tang San and the others aside. But just as he was about to reach Zhu Zhuqing, Feng Xinglie's figure blocked his path.

"You... Feng Xinglie, this is my family matter. You have no right to interfere!"

In the same spot, recalling the previous humiliation, Dai Mubai's anger instantly subsided by more than half, and his tone became much more polite.

"So, he's really your fiancé?"

"He was, but now I'm ashamed of it."

Facing Feng Xinglie's question, Zhu Zhuqing replied with disgust.

"See, you heard her."

"Feng Xinglie! Why do you have to make things difficult for me?"

Dai Mubai was going crazy, but his cowardly nature and the previous lesson prevented him from stepping forward. He could only watch with resentment as Zhu Zhuqing and Feng Xinglie walked towards Shrek Academy.

"Nyah nyah nyah, so embarrassing. Dumped by a girl again~"

Seeing Dai Mubai's predicament, Ning Rongrong, who had a past grievance with him, made a face and directly mocked him. Before he could react, she slipped over to Feng Xinglie's side, watching Dai Mubai stand there in impotent rage.

"But this time, Zhu Zhuqing was indeed in the wrong. We are a team, and she actually turned her spear on her own people during a joint battle."

Watching the backs of the three as they walked away, Tang San frowned and said.

"This... perhaps there's a hidden reason? Maybe Sister Zhu Qing wasn't feeling well?"

Oscar, seeing the relationship between the two sides becoming increasingly strained, stammered, trying to salvage the situation, but was interrupted by Dai Mubai's angry roar:

"What reason? That bastard is just being a jerk! From now on, it's either her or me! I want to see how she survives her sister without my help!"

Spitting on the ground, Dai Mubai envisioned Zhu Zhuqing being purged by Zhu Zhuyun in the future, a cruel smile appearing on his lips.

"Today, I've completely fallen out with Dai Mubai. What are your plans for what comes next?"

"I don't have any."

Although her expression was dejected, Zhu Zhuqing still responded to Feng Xinglie's question.

"It's okay, your life is still long. That person can only be considered a passerby. You still have many opportunities to choose."

"Then... can I follow you?"

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly turned her head, her tear-filled eyes red:

"I can't go back home. I thought the only person I could rely on was like that. Now, besides being by your side, there's nowhere in this world for me to belong."

Feng Xinglie remained silent.

He had indeed intended to use Zhu Zhuqing from the beginning, but he had to admit that this child had suffered too much. She had been suppressed and even assassinated since childhood. The last pillar of hope in her heart turned out to be an irresponsible and cowardly scumbag. This young girl, barely in her teens, truly had nowhere to go.

"Sigh... forget it, isn't this more convenient for my plan?"

Forcefully pushing away the indecisive thoughts in his mind, Feng Xinglie looked at Zhu Zhuqing and said:

"Don't easily define your place. Just as I said earlier, your life is still very long. However, I am very willing to accompany you on a part of this journey. When you recognize your own heart and find your true direction, or even before the end, please allow me to travel with you for now."
