Winning Meng Yiran's Heart

"Crack—"

The moment Ning Rongrong finished speaking, they heard a strange, odd sound.

Looking up, they saw that Zhu Zhuqing had used too much force while moving and snapped a tree branch beneath her foot.

After moving, Zhu Zhuqing clenched her fists tightly as well.

She looked to be in a very bad mood.

"Wow, Boss Dai, you really are lucky with women."

Ma Hongjun rushed to Dai Mubai's side and waggled his eyebrows at him.

Oscar, standing in the distance, also looked at Dai Mubai with envy.

His reaction simply was not as obvious as Ma Hongjun's.

Of course, no one really cared about him anyway.

"Sure."

Faced with Ning Rongrong's question, Dai Mubai shoved away Ma Hongjun, who kept trying to rub up against him.

At the same time, he answered Ning Rongrong without the slightest embarrassment.

"Come to my tent tonight."

Dai Mubai's words plunged everyone into silence.

Ning Rongrong was left standing there, stunned by his utterly shameless response.

She did not know how to reply.

Meanwhile, Oscar and Ma Hongjun stared at Dai Mubai with envious expressions.

Zhao Wuji curled his lips, glanced at Dai Mubai, then quickly looked away.

Up in the tree, Zhu Zhuqing felt somewhat uncomfortable listening to this.

Could it be...

Had he really taken a liking to Ning Rongrong?

Zhu Zhuqing lowered her head and looked at her reflection in the shining blade of her dagger. Her stunningly beautiful face carried a trace of cool detachment!

Did Mubai like the delicate, obedient type?

It seemed she would have to change in the future. At worst, she would only be gentle with Mubai.

"I'm telling you, you really are a flirtatious big tiger!"

In the end, Xiao Wu broke the silence.

But just as Xiao Wu spoke, everyone suddenly felt the heavens shake and the earth tremble.

The ground beneath their feet began shaking uncontrollably.

It occasionally seemed to pull away from beneath their feet.

The intense jolting startled everyone.

What was going on?

Why...

Had an earthquake suddenly started?

As the ground trembled, the trees began shaking violently as well.

The powerful vibrations left everyone deeply uneasy.

"What the hell is happening?"

Ma Hongjun could not help asking.

"We... seem... to have provoked something huge..."

Standing atop the tree, Zhu Zhuqing observed the situation ahead.

Before her, an enormous creature had appeared.

"What is that?"

At Zhu Zhuqing's shocked tone, everyone raised their heads as well.

The sky went dark at that moment.

That enormous creature had actually blocked out the entire moon.

Not a trace of light remained in the forest.

"Where did such a huge monkey come from..."

Ma Hongjun's sudden idiotic remark made Dai Mubai want to slap him to death.

"Wait... that thing seems to be coming toward us!"

Zhu Zhuqing cried out, while the jolting grew increasingly intense.

"Retreat! Get away from it! Whether it's coming for us or not!"

Zhao Wuji hurriedly roared, signaling everyone to retreat.

Zhu Zhuqing quickly flipped down from the tree. With trees toppling over, staying up there was too dangerous.

Dai Mubai reached out and pulled Zhu Zhuqing into his arms.

Every ounce of strength in his body surged into motion at that moment.

"Roar!"

A sound erupted from Dai Mubai's body.

The power of the Evil Eye White Tiger was pushed to its limit at that moment.

Stay away from Tang San and Xiao Wu!

Once the Titan Giant Ape snatched Xiao Wu away, he would definitely be safe.

At a time like this, it was better for others to die than himself.

"Boom!"

As the Titan Giant Ape drew nearer, countless trees crashed to the ground, and the danger of retreating continued to rise.

Elsewhere.

"Roar—"

The Titan Giant Ape's roar had just left Meng Yiran's family of three, some distance away from the Shrek Academy group, completely stunned.

"What was that sound?"

Meng Yiran's mind went blank.

"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast! Run!"

Meng Shu had seen the world before. Sensing the Titan Giant Ape's terrifying Soul Power, he immediately understood.

This was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!

If they did not run, they would be waiting to die!

"Quick! Run!"

Meng Shu grabbed Meng Yiran's hand and prepared to flee.

Although he did not know why a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast had left the core region of the Star Dou Forest and come to the outskirts.

At this moment, they could die at any time if they remained within that giant creature's attack range.

It was always best to reach a safe area first.

"Then... what about them?"

Meng Yiran suddenly asked.

"What do you mean, them? Who are you talking about?"

Meng Shu froze at her words.

"Just now, Grandma and I ran into people from Shrek Academy. They must be in danger too!"

Meng Yiran was somewhat anxious.

Just moments ago, she and Snake Granny had encountered the Shrek Academy group.

And Dai Mubai, who had taken the lead, had easily defeated Meng Yiran after suppressing his strength.

Although Meng Yiran had lost, she could not help remembering him.

After all, Meng Yiran's personality made her admire the strong.

Even now, Meng Yiran was worried about Dai Mubai.

It was worth mentioning that.

Although Dai Mubai had stepped forward to fight Meng Yiran.

It definitely was not because, as he claimed, he was the leader and would shoulder any trouble himself.

It was because Dai Mubai knew Tang San was not far from reaching Level 30 at the time.

If Tang San fought Meng Yiran, he would break through to Level 30.

Then, following the original story's plot, he would encounter the Man Faced Demon Spider while chasing Xiao Wu.

And then absorb an External Soul Bone.

Dai Mubai naturally would not allow that to happen.

That External Soul Bone had been one of Tang San's trump cards for a long time.

He absolutely could not let Tang San obtain it.

That was why Dai Mubai had chosen to step forward at that moment.

He had prevented Tang San from fighting Meng Yiran.

"Silly granddaughter, they're strangers to you. Why care about them? Hurry and run!"

Meng Shu did not care about the Shrek Academy group at all. He dragged his granddaughter away and fled.
