If Zhu Zhuqing moving into this top-tier suite had only been a thorn in Dai Mubai's side before, this slap and these words now trampled his face into the dirt without a shred of mercy.
Dai Mubai felt as if a green hat had been placed firmly upon his head.
He had always been the one to cuckold others; who would have thought that one day he would become the victim himself.
He was so furious that his golden hair stood on end, and his level thirty-seven soul power surged, turning his locks into sharp steel needles.
"Do you know what you're saying? Don't forget your status!"
"If my father and the others find out, not only will that Qin Jiuxiao be implicated, but your entire Zhu family will be punished along with him."
"If you don't want your family to be dragged down because of you, then from now on, you will stay obediently by my side. You will do whatever I tell you to do."
"As long as you still carry the name Zhu and belong to the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire, you will never escape the palm of my hand."
Dai Mubai's lecherous gaze swept over Zhu Zhuqing, her exquisite, curvaceous figure causing the evil fire within him to flare up intensely.
He hadn't expected that after a few years apart, this woman would have developed so beautifully.
If he had known, he would have fed her some empty promises back then.
Perhaps he could have already tasted her charms by now.
Dai Mubai's words made Zhu Zhuqing's body tremble.
Although she knew Qin Jiuxiao was incredibly talented, Dai Mubai was, after all, a prince of the Star Luo Empire.
Facing the Star Luo Empire, even a Titled Douluo would not dare to easily make an enemy of them.
If she stayed by his side, would she bring harm to him?
She did not want to cause trouble for Qin Jiuxiao, fearing she would ruin the image she held in his heart.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Dai Mubai with utter disgust, her voice cold and biting.
"Don't even think about it."
"I would rather fancy a woman than have anything to do with a piece of trash like you."
"Back then, you were so terrified by Dai Davis that you fled to the Heaven Dou Empire overnight. You've been cowering in this small city for so many years; I imagine you've been living in constant fear, haven't you?"
"Compared to dealing with my Zhu family, do you think that if I revealed your location here to Dai Davis, you can guess who would die first?"
Hearing this, a flash of terror crossed the depths of Dai Mubai's eyes.
If Dai Davis truly discovered his whereabouts, he would likely send assassins to kill him overnight.
As long as he was dead, no one would ever be able to threaten Dai Davis's succession to the throne.
Compared to the throne, dealing with the Zhu family was indeed insignificant to Dai Davis.
Zhu Zhuyun, inside the room, looked on in surprise. She had not expected her simple-minded sister to possess such wit.
It seemed she had truly underestimated her in the past.
However, she had already given her most precious gift to Qin Jiuxiao.
After experiencing a wonderful life, she had no desire to return to the Star Luo Empire, a place that forced sisters to slaughter one another.
"Dai Mubai, from this day forward, there is no longer any relationship between us. We will live our own lives, completely separate."
"From now on, I am merely the soul master Zhu Zhuqing of the Douluo Continent."
"You had best not provoke me, and do not go looking for trouble with Young Master Qin."
"Otherwise, I will make sure you die a very ugly death."
Threatened by Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai's expression turned a sickly shade of blue and red, his entire face twisting in rage.
He roared unwillingly, "What is so good about that piece of trash that makes you care for him so much?"
"I am already level 37. Can't you see the talent I possess?"
"What does he have to compare with me?"
"He is nothing more than a piece of trash who hasn't even obtained his second soul ring."
Zhu Zhuqing's expression finally darkened.
If Young Master Qin was trash, then who else in the entire continent could be called a genius?
Moreover, Young Master Qin had saved her and treated her wounds; she would never allow anyone to slander him in her presence.
"You big golden-haired oaf, this young lady can't even stand to watch you pestering her like this."
Just as Zhu Zhuqing was about to speak, a voice rang out from the corner.
A young girl with fair skin and a custom-made dress walked over, her small leather shoes clicking rhythmically against the floor.
One could tell from her noble aura that the girl's background was extraordinary.
"That's right, this young lady can't stand it either."
Another girl, wearing a pink dress with two rabbit ears atop her head, walked over indignantly.
Judging by her expression, one would think she was the one being victimized.
The newcomers were none other than Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu.
Unexpectedly, this accident had caused the three beauties of Shrek to meet ahead of schedule.
Xiao Wu arrived at Zhu Zhuqing's side, blocked her, and pointed at Dai Mubai's nose, scolding:
"You stinking tiger, I haven't settled the score with you for what happened during the day, and now you're here harassing another girl at night."
"This young lady is going to teach you a lesson today."
Ning Rongrong, a little demoness by nature, naturally loved a good scene. She waved her hand and stood in front of Zhu Zhuqing.
"Count me in."
Zhu Zhuqing had been at the Rose Hotel for a few days.
She had naturally seen Xiao Wu during the day and knew that Dai Mubai and Tang San had clashed.
But Xiao Wu was only a Great Soul Master; she was certainly no match for Dai Mubai.
As for Ning Rongrong, although she hadn't met her before, she didn't want these two to get hurt on her account.
Zhu Zhuqing grabbed Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong.
"Young ladies, thank you for standing up for me."
"But this is a matter between him and me. Please don't get involved and end up getting hurt."
Xiao Wu, however, was incredibly loyal and stood her ground in front of Zhu Zhuqing.
She patted her small chest and swore with absolute certainty:
"Don't worry, with me here today, he won't be able to get his way."
Ning Rongrong was the same; she tilted her head with the air of an arrogant little demoness:
"In this Heaven Dou Empire, there aren't many people who dare to lay a hand on this young lady."
"You can rest easy."
Just as they finished speaking, a youth in blue clothes hurried over from not far away.
Dai Mubai glanced at him and said coldly, "Tang San, take your woman and leave."
"If she gets in my way again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
A shadow of malice flashed in Tang San's eyes. This Dai Mubai dared to threaten him.
He was already a man who deserved to die.
But he took a deep breath and hid the emotion.
"Xiao Wu, this is their business. Let's not interfere, come with me."
Tang San reached out to Xiao Wu, wanting her to leave with him.
During the battle earlier that day, Tang San knew that Dai Mubai's strength was not weak, and he had even invited him to join Shrek Academy.
That was the very place his teacher had told him to go.
Perhaps they would be schoolmates with Dai Mubai in the future; it was not wise to sour the relationship.
But Xiao Wu, who had lived in the Star Dou Forest for many years, could not listen to such words.
She had grown up relying on mutual support with Da Ming and Er Ming.
Now that someone was being bullied in front of her, how could she sit idly by?
"Third Brother, I hated the look in that guy's eyes during the day. If that school is full of students like him, I'd rather not go."
Once Xiao Wu said this, Tang San was caught in a dilemma.
On one side was Xiao Wu, whom he regarded as a sister, and on the other was a future schoolmate he needed to maintain relations with, as his teacher had instructed.
Xiao Wu was important, but listening to his teacher was also important.
For a moment, he could not make a choice.
This scene fell into Xiao Wu's eyes, and the disappointment on her face flashed by.
That Dai Mubai had just called her his woman; couldn't Tang San hear that?
In such a situation, he wouldn't even protect her.
Then how much of those past vows of eternal love were true, and how much were false?
Unknowingly, a crack appeared in the perfect image of Tang San within Xiao Wu's heart.
This inadvertently helped Qin Jiuxiao.
If Qin Jiuxiao knew, he would probably give Dai Mubai a thumbs up.
If you know how to talk, say more.
In the future, when he took the little kitten to the hotel, he could let him pay the bill; it would count as him having some participation.
"One last time!"
"Get lost, don't get in my way!"
Dai Mubai ignited his soul rings, and a white tiger glowing with golden light manifested behind him.
Two yellow and one purple soul ring circled around him.
Just as Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong were about to summon their own martial souls, a voice filled with a cold sneer approached from afar.
"Dai Mubai, do you not know how to write the word 'death' if you dare to lay a hand on my people here in Soto City?"
