After leaving Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Qian Renxue returned to her residence and quickly took out a letter to write to her grandfather, telling him about Wang Feng, whose presence had caused her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul to resonate.
After finishing it, she had a trusted subordinate send it out. Qian Renxue then looked toward Spirit City and thought of the mother who had made her infiltrate for years without ever showing her any concern, leaving her feeling somewhat desolate.
"Are you really that heartless?"
"Then again, if you weren't heartless, you wouldn't have gone all these years without even a single word of concern."
"Forget it. I am Qian Renxue. Whether that woman cares about me is unimportant!"
"Relying on myself, I can still accomplish what I want to do. Besides..."
Qian Renxue thought of Wang Feng, someone who could make her Martial Soul resonate.
"If I bring him under my command and make him mine, then if the two of us use a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, perhaps..."
Meanwhile, outside the women's quarters at Shrek Academy.
Zhu Zhuqing knew exactly why she had come to Shrek Academy and had her own plans. She wasted not a moment, and was currently carrying out her daily training.
At that moment, Dai Mubai walked toward where Zhu Zhuqing was, his face dark.
Ever since Zhu Zhuqing had entered Shrek Academy, she had barely acknowledged him. He knew the reason, so over the past few days, he had wanted to ease their relationship by speaking gently to her. Yet she still wore a cold expression, acting as though she did not know what was good for her.
The reason he had held himself back when Wang Feng kissed her before was because Zhu Zhuqing had caught him playing around with twins. He had been in the wrong first, so he had endured it.
He had never been a patient person, and groveling certainly was not Dai Mubai's style. Now that he had lost the patience to please Zhu Zhuqing, since the gentle approach would not work, he could only use force.
Once he beat Zhu Zhuqing into submission, was he supposed to fear that she would not be conquered by him?
"What are you doing here?"
Seeing Dai Mubai approaching, Zhu Zhuqing remained cold-faced as she spoke without expression.
"Zhu Zhuqing, how long are you going to keep this up? My patience has its limits," Dai Mubai said coldly.
To his surprise, Zhu Zhuqing merely glanced at him and ignored him.
Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing still could not be bothered with him, Dai Mubai took a deep breath. "Zhu Zhuqing, do you plan to go on like this forever? Or have you never intended to forgive me?"
"Forgive you? Hmph! Forgive you for abandoning me and coming here alone to indulge yourself? Forgive you for doing something as disgusting as playing around with twins out in the wild?" Upon hearing Dai Mubai's words, Zhu Zhuqing responded with cold mockery.
"That is all in the past. Besides, I have not even held you accountable for what happened between you and Wang Feng that day. And I promise you, I will change in the future. I will never do it again."
"Change in the future? Do you think I would believe you? If I remember correctly, you and Ma Hongjun went to fool around in Suotuo City the day before yesterday, didn't you?"
As soon as Zhu Zhuqing said that, Dai Mubai became somewhat embarrassed.
He had indeed gone to Suotuo City with Ma Hongjun the day before yesterday. At first, it had been to help Ma Hongjun deal with his physical problem. Who knew they would run into those twin sisters again, and the two of them would do some indescribable things? But how did Zhu Zhuqing know?
Could the fatty have told her?
"If there is nothing else, leave immediately. Unlike you, I still need to train. I do not have time to waste here with you."
After saying that, Zhu Zhuqing did not even spare Dai Mubai a glance.
"You need to be taught a lesson."
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing return to treating him as though he did not exist, Dai Mubai grew furious.
Wasn't it only natural for men to have three wives and four concubines, and to go out and play around with twins?
So what if she had found out? She was his fiancée. If he did not teach her a lesson now, would she not become completely unmanageable later?
He had originally intended to speak nicely to Zhu Zhuqing, but now it seemed he had to teach her a lesson. There was no one here anyway. Who would know if he disciplined a little kitty? With that thought, Dai Mubai made his move.
Buzz—
Yellow, yellow, purple. Three Spirit Rings lit up around Dai Mubai as the pressure of a Soul Elder bore down on Zhu Zhuqing.
"Dai Mubai, what are you trying to do?"
Zhu Zhuqing, who had been training, immediately sensed the oppressive aura. She reacted at once and watched Dai Mubai with a guarded expression.
"What am I trying to do? I have already put aside my pride and tried to please you these past few days, yet you still do not know what is good for you. If I do not teach you a lesson today, won't you become impossible to control in the future?"
"Teach me a lesson? Someone who cannot even defeat Wang Feng wants to teach me a lesson? Go ahead, try laying a hand on me."
Two Spirit Rings lit up around Zhu Zhuqing as she did not forget to mock Dai Mubai.
The moment Wang Feng was mentioned, Dai Mubai's hackles rose. Not only had Wang Feng, a mere Soul Grandmaster, beaten him up in public, but he had also watched Wang Feng passionately kiss his own fiancée right in front of him. Zhu Zhuqing could have mentioned anyone, but she had to mention Wang Feng. That had already struck at his self-esteem.
Buzz—
A Spirit Ring lit up as Dai Mubai instantly possessed his Martial Soul. His tiger claws spread open, and with a cold face, he walked step by step toward Zhu Zhuqing.
"Today, I will show you who is stronger, me or Wang Feng."
"You are no match for him."
The instant Zhu Zhuqing said that, Dai Mubai trembled with rage. Being told by his fiancée that he was inferior to another man did not merely hurt his dignity—it ground it into the dirt.
Boom!
Unable to bear it any longer, Dai Mubai spread his tiger claws and lunged at Zhu Zhuqing. This strike would not injure her, only leave her powerless and collapsed on the ground.
"Dai Mubai, what are you doing?"
"Stop right now!"
At that moment, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong came out of the residence after hearing the commotion. Seeing Dai Mubai attack Zhu Zhuqing, they warned him.
As Dai Mubai's attack closed in, Zhu Zhuqing reacted instantly. Her body sprang upward as she deftly evaded the claw reaching for her.
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing dodge Dai Mubai's tiger claw, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong hurried to her side and watched Dai Mubai with guarded expressions.
"Dai Mubai, you actually dare attack Zhuqing? You are courting death."
"That's right. Dai Mubai, I never thought you were this kind of person. Not only are you a lecherous tiger, you are also a beast ruled by his lower half—a human-faced beast with an animal's heart."
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong took turns speaking, opening with cold ridicule.
"Move aside, or I will beat all of you today."
Dai Mubai had been so enraged by Zhu Zhuqing's words that he had no mind left to care about Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong.
"I already thought Wang Feng was right. A man like you, Dai Mubai, is not worthy of Zhuqing. Now it seems he was absolutely right."
"That's right. A lecherous tiger like you is completely unworthy of Zhuqing. Zhuqing should have left with Wang Feng days ago."
Already furious beyond measure, Dai Mubai was provoked once again by Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong's words. His whole body trembled, his eyes slowly reddened, and his mouth opened wide as though he were showing signs of losing control.
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong also noticed that something seemed wrong with Dai Mubai.
"Xiao Wu, something seems off about this lecherous tiger."
"Yeah, it really does."
The two examined him and indeed found that something was wrong with Dai Mubai.
He seemed to be losing control.
"This is bad. Rongrong, hurry and get Teacher Zhao. I think he has lost control."
Ning Rongrong immediately came to her senses. After casting Dai Mubai a disdainful look, she hurried off to find Zhao Wuji.
She had not expected Dai Mubai to be so easily provoked. He had lost control after just a few words. He was too useless.
"Zhuqing, let's hold him off for a moment."
"Okay."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded. She had also noticed that Dai Mubai's condition was not quite right.
Earlier, she really had been trying to anger Dai Mubai. Wang Feng had left too deep an imprint on her heart, so she had wanted to use this method to lessen that imprint.
But who would have thought Dai Mubai was so unable to take it?
She had originally thought that as long as Dai Mubai turned over a new leaf, she would give him one chance. Now, it seemed she needed to think it over carefully.
