Tang San's expression shifted unpredictably as countless thoughts ran through his mind.

If he hadn't retained his memories, he probably would have frozen or starved to death long ago.

If he hadn't awakened Twin Martial Souls, he would probably still be forging iron and serving him.

If not for...

Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, standing nearby, didn't show much emotional change. They were only slightly surprised. After all, the royal family had far more sordid affairs, and many of them were even more thrilling than Tang Hao's story.

Dai Mubai patted his thigh with his intact left hand, his tone full of envy. "Why can't I ever run into something this good? That's a hundred-thousand-year Spi... Spirit Ring."

Hearing this, Chen Yu gave Dai Mubai a strange look.

A Spirit Ring?

Was that really what he had his eye on?

Zhu Zhuqing clearly caught the hidden meaning in Dai Mubai's words as well. She snorted coldly without speaking, though the temperature around her seemed to drop a few degrees.

Then she looked at Chen Yu with even greater intensity. If she could learn the Self-Created Soul Skill from Chen Yu's sect, she could get rid of that disgusting thing called Dai Mubai.

Chen Yu automatically ignored Zhu Zhuqing's gaze.

Save Zhu Zhuqing? Don't make him laugh. He wouldn't become some simp just for those two lumps of flesh.

If he wanted women, he could just take them by force. With his current strength, even if he captured Bibi Dong and locked her in one secret chamber after another, she would have no way to resist.

All he needed to do now was ensure that Douluo Continent wasn't wrecked by Tang San. He couldn't be bothered to care about anything else. As long as nothing unexpected happened, he wouldn't interfere and would let things develop freely.

Dai Mubai naturally noticed Zhu Zhuqing's burning gaze toward Chen Yu. Although he understood that Zhu Zhuqing wanted to learn the Self-Created Soul Skill from Chen Yu's sect, his mood still turned foul. He couldn't stand seeing his woman look at another man like that.

Dai Mubai couldn't help reminding her, "Zhu Zhuqing, remember your status. Watch your behavior."

But Zhu Zhuqing ignored him completely, not even sparing him a glance as she continued doing as she pleased.

Dai Mubai slammed the table and rose. "You..."

Only then did Zhu Zhuqing withdraw her gaze. She calmly shot Dai Mubai a glance and said coldly, "What about me? I haven't been fooling around like you. Don't assume everyone is as filthy as you are."

When Dai Mubai had slammed the table and stood up, everyone's attention had already shifted over, and they no longer dwelled on Tang Hao's matter.

Everyone looked toward Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing. Judging from their exchange, they sensed some major gossip here. Tang Hao's business could move aside for now!

Dai Mubai laughed in extreme anger. "I'm filthy?"

"Zhu Zhuqing, mind your status. You'll never be able to get rid of me."

Zhu Zhuqing's gaze dimmed, but when the corner of her eye caught sight of Chen Yu, it brightened again. "Who says I can't get rid of you?"

"Heh, get rid of me? How? By killing yourself? Could you bear to kill yourself? If you were willing to die, would you have run away to find me?"

"Or are you planning to find someone else to help you? Why would anyone help you?"

"Anyone capable of helping you escape me would certainly possess status or strength that reached the heavens. Would someone like that lack women around him?"

"What? You'd rather become someone else's concubine than be my proper wife?"

Chen Yu actually agreed with that. Which transmigrator trying to win over Zhu Zhuqing wasn't surrounded by women? If Zhu Zhuqing could accept those people, why couldn't she accept Dai Mubai?

Dai Mubai might be a scumbag, but after marrying him, couldn't she simply avoid fighting or competing and peacefully act as a decorative figure?

"As long as I keep lying flat, would my imperial brother still kill a useless good-for-nothing like me after ascending the throne?"

"Or is it that you, Zhu Zhuqing, are unwilling to accept it and want to sit in the empress's seat?"

Zhu Zhuqing finally looked Dai Mubai directly in the eye. "You think I want to be empress? Heh, then let's dissolve our engagement. How about I never have any chance of becoming empress?"

Dai Mubai sat back down, his tone calm. "Heh, if you want to dissolve the engagement, there's no use coming to me."

Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong were completely confused by what they had heard. But they were too embarrassed to directly ask the people involved, so they turned their gazes toward Chen Yu.

Chen Yu wanted to roll his eyes. Did they really think he was some know-it-all? Still, he eventually said, "If I'm not mistaken, Dai Mubai is a prince of the Star Luo Empire, while Zhu Zhuqing belongs to the Zhu Family of the Star Luo Empire. They..."

Before Chen Yu could finish, Ning Rongrong interrupted him.

"I know, I know! I heard my father mention it before. Because of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, the Dai Family and Zhu Family of the Star Luo Empire have intermarried for generations. The Dai Family has always held the throne, while the Zhu Family has always held the position of the foremost great clan."

Ning Rongrong looked at Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing again and said excitedly, "I've never seen a Martial Soul Fusion Skill before. Can you two perform one for us?"

Zhu Zhuqing remained expressionless, but Dai Mubai's face turned extremely ugly, leaving Ning Rongrong completely baffled.

"Pfft!"

Chen Yu laughed without any sense of decency and said outright, "I say, Miss Ning, are you really Ning Fengzhi's daughter? He's such a shrewd man, so how did he end up with a daughter as foolish as you?"

"You..." Ning Rongrong was furious. This bastard had made her massage his legs yesterday, and today he was calling her foolish. This was intolerable!

"What do you mean, 'you'? As the daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's sect master, you don't even know the most basic common sense about Martial Soul Fusion Skills. How can you have the nerve to go out and mingle with others? And how can you have the nerve to ask them to perform one for you?"

"The prerequisite for using a Martial Soul Fusion Skill is Martial Soul resonance. Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing certainly meet that condition. But for their Martial Souls to fuse, they need mutual trust. Do you think the two of them trust each other?"

Ning Rongrong looked at Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing after hearing that, then shook her head. Those two definitely couldn't use a Martial Soul Fusion Skill right now.

Only after a while did she react. She said to Chen Yu, "But you still can't call me foolish."

Chen Yu had no intention of indulging Ning Rongrong. "As the daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's sect master, it doesn't matter if you like to play around and neglect your studies. After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has your back. But when you display your ignorance outside, what you disgrace is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and even your father Ning Fengzhi. What's wrong with calling you foolish?"

Ning Rongrong trembled from anger and pointed at Chen Yu as she shouted, "You... I hate you!"

Then she turned and ran toward the upstairs rooms. Chen Yu and the others could all hear Ning Rongrong crying.

Yesterday, she had cried after being forced to serve someone. Today, Chen Yu had angered her into tears again.

Tang San, Xiao Wu, and the others looked at Chen Yu with strange expressions. This guy was far too irritating. He would definitely die alone. Any woman who liked him would have suffered eight lifetimes of bad luck.

"Little Demonesses these days are really fun. A little provocation, and she starts crying."

"It's still more entertaining following the Protagonist Group. After obtaining the Spirit Rings, I'll go find Ye Fan and Xiao Yan to have some fun."

Chen Yu thought to himself. Then he raised his head and saw Tang San, Xiao Wu, and the others looking at him with strange expressions. Chen Yu subconsciously touched his face and asked, "Is there something on my face?"
