Zhu Zhuqing: I Lost the One Who Loved Me Most with My Own Hands!

Upon hearing Dai Mubai's accusations and criticisms, Tang San's face turned pale and then purple, his expression shifting unpredictably until his entire face turned bright red.

He admitted that he did have some feelings for Xiao Wu, but these feelings... were simply the affection one has for one's younger sister, and there were absolutely no other emotions involved.

Who else would be like Dai Mubai, whose mind is only focused on pulling up radishes and having fun... Anyway, he, the pure and innocent Thousand-Handed Asura Tang San, definitely isn't one of them!

"You're talking nonsense!!!"

Unable to hold back any longer, Tang San completely broke down after Dai Mubai's single sentence. His subsequent explanations seemed weak and ineffective, and he eventually withdrew from the confrontation.

···

The feud between the Shrek Academy erupted once again, causing Zhao Wuji's brows to twitch.

Seeing the conflict erupt at the Shrek Academy, Meng Yiran frowned.

From their few words, she also realized that Xu Nian'an had saved all of their lives.

But for some reason, Dai Mubai still made things difficult for them at every turn and stood on the opposite side of their savior.

The Dragon Duke and Snake Granny frowned.

I initially thought that these geniuses simply possessed the temperament of geniuses; after all, geniuses always have their own unique characteristics.

So be it, a problem kid.

Dragon Duke thought that as long as the problem wasn't too serious, he should try to win them over, since these people were indeed quite talented.

But Dragon Duke never imagined that these people's temperaments had deteriorated to this extent.

How could someone do such a thing to their savior?

This is no longer just a simple problem child.

This is simply a matter of fundamental character flaws. Someone saved your life, and this is how you repay them.

If you win over someone like that, you might get bitten in return later.

The idea of winning over this group of people to pave the way for his granddaughter Meng Yiran gradually faded from his mind.

"Gentlemen, now that this matter is over, we should prepare to return to our families to take precautions."

Dragon Duke, accompanied by his granddaughter and Snake Granny, slowly walked out and nodded slowly in Xu Nian'an's direction.

After all, if it weren't for Xu Nian'an, his granddaughter's Soul Ring would... have no future.

With the Beast Tide and the appearance of so many Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, even if Dragon Duke has the cultivation of Soul Douluo, he wouldn't dare to easily enter the Star Dou Forest to search for Soul Ring for Meng Yiran.

If it weren't for Xu Nian'an's Soul Spirit Token, Meng Yiran n't have been able to break through to Soul Elder in such a short time.

"Let's say goodbye to our seniors."

The Snake Granny gave Meng Yiran a push, and Meng Yiran blushed upon seeing this. She glanced in Xu Nian'an's direction and slowly bowed.

"Thank you for your gift, senior."

After Meng Yiran finished her greetings, the Snake Granny nodded in Xu Nian'an's direction.

The departure of the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny with Meng Yiran did not stir any emotion in Xu Nian'an.

At this moment, Dai Mubai was constantly feeling the powerful pressure emanating from Xu Nian'an, and his body and bones were making the most intimate movements with the ground.

"Niansheng, let him go this time."

Just as Xu Nian'an was torturing Dai Mubai, a clear, cold voice slowly echoed from behind.

Xu Nian'an paused, turned around, and looked at Zhu Zhuqing with disbelief in her eyes...

"What... what did you say!"

Hearing Xu Nian'an's tone become noticeably serious.

Zhu Zhuqing's heart trembled. Through the golden Halo Mask... Zhu Zhuqing saw a pair of eyes filled with utter disappointment.

Bang! Crack!

"Ah!!! Ah!!!"

Dai Mubai's shrill screams instantly resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

Enraged, Xu Nian'an unleashed a powerful aura, causing Dai Mubai, who was lying on the ground, to suffer broken leg bones that embedded themselves deep into the ground.

Looking into those disappointed eyes, Zhu Zhuqing felt a slow, inexplicable ache in her heart.

"I said... let him go this time."

Heh~

Xu Nian'an, of course, heard what Zhu Zhuqing said the first time.

However, he found it hard to believe.

Even though he saved her from danger twice, even though she agreed to his proposal, it couldn't compare to her so-called arranged marriage... her fiancé?

"You have disappointed me greatly."

Looking into Xu Nian'an's eyes before he turned away, Zhu Zhuqing felt a surge of emotion... Suddenly, she found it hard to breathe.

That look in his eyes... This was the second time she had seen it on him.

For some reason, Zhu Zhuqing felt that she had done something wrong, as if something was about to leave her.

This thing is very important to me, even more important than my own life.

···

Whoosh!!!

Upon hearing Xu Nian'an's words, Ning Rongrong was not far away, immediately raised her head.

A golden light appeared in his eyes without him noticing.

Chance···.

"No!!!"

The suffocating discomfort was unbearable. Zhu Zhuqing lunged forward, trying to grab Xu Nian'an to ease his inner unease.

However, Xu Nian'an, who had been perfectly fine in front of them, suddenly transformed into Sisi of golden light and vanished from the spot.

Zhu Zhuqing missed completely.

He suddenly fell to the ground.

"Hahaha, Zhu Zhuqing... at least you still have some sense."

"You must always remember your family and your identity. I may not need them, but you cannot refuse to give them to me!"

"Hehehahaha!!!"

On the ground, Dai Mubai was bleeding from all seven orifices, but his eyes were still fixed on the distraught Zhu Zhuqing.

"Accept your fate, this is your... destiny!!!"

The word "fate" was deafening; Zhu Zhuqing's eyes widened suddenly, her pupils contracting sharply.

Involuntarily, flashbacks of all the scenes between Xu Nian'an and himself flashed through his mind.

Escaping his family, he was being hunted on the border of the Xiba Continent. He saved him. Inside the hotel, he misunderstood him and wanted to hit him... The words "I saved your life" Jiujiu in his mind.

···

He encountered the Titan Giant Ape, Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, in the Star Dou Forest. He nearly perished, but in the moment of crisis, he stepped forward to save him...

He saved her time and time again, helped her time and time again, but she... disappointed him time and time again.

From childhood to adulthood, apart from the occasional flashes of kinship within her family during her early years, Zhu Zhuqing had never experienced someone who treated her with such wholehearted kindness.

His kindness is never spoken, but revealed in an unintentional gesture or a glance.

Zhu Zhuqing realized that she seemed to have fallen in love with him, even though she knew very little about his identity and had never even seen his face.

How ridiculous, how ridiculous, that I've actually fallen for someone like this.

Yet this is the same person who treats himself better than the entire country, his fiancé, his family, and even his own father!

Yet, this is the very person who treated me so well, and I lost him with my own hands!

In an instant, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes reddened, and an extreme sense of unease and panic welled up inside her.

"Hehehahaha~!!!"

Dai Mubai's arrogant laughter continued, and Zhu Zhuqing's icy gaze fell upon him. She had never... she had never hated such a person so much.

"Dai Mubai, our relationship is now severed!"

"I, Zhu Zhuqing, hereby declare that from this moment forward, I am withdrawing from the Zhu Family!"
