Early the next morning, Su Ling left the hotel.
He did not return to the Mist Forest right away. After all, Zhu Zhuxin's things would still last him another half month.
Xiao Wu's affection had already reached fifty-three points.
So Su Ling wanted to take this opportunity to raise it above sixty and complete the binding.
Once outside the hotel, Su Ling heard people all over the streets discussing what had happened at the Starcloud Hotel the previous night.
The third prince, Dai Mubai, had been caught with another man's woman, beaten up, and crippled down there yet again.
Being caught and beaten had dragged the royal family's dignity through the dirt. Meanwhile, Ying Wei's grandfather was a major figure in the Star Luo Empire's military, a Soul Douluo above level eighty.
Thus, Dai Mubai's beating put the Star Luo Imperial Family in a difficult position.
After all, Dai Mubai was at fault. Still, Ying Wei should not have crippled him down there, so he would have to be punished.
But no matter how severe the punishment, it would be useless. What was done was done, and Dai Mubai had already been injured.
Dai Weisi, however, was delighted that Dai Mubai had been injured again.
He had thought that once Dai Mubai recovered and was granted a marriage to Zhu Zhuxin, he would become a threat to him again.
Yet now that he had been crippled once more, Dai Mubai would find it hard to rise again.
After all, only a crippled Dai Mubai could truly put his mind at ease.
Looking at Dai Mubai resting in his sickbed, Dai Weisi offered a few words of comfort before leaving.
After Dai Weisi left, Dai Mubai carefully recalled what had happened the previous night.
"No, someone must have been targeting me.
