Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.

At the entrance of Dan Heng's courtyard—

Dai Mubai lay sprawled at the doorway like a dead dog.

His luxurious white ceremonial robe was now covered in dirt and sweat. His lion-like golden hair clung to his scalp.

He had exerted all his strength, yet he still couldn't even touch the corner of Zhu Zhuqing's clothes.

She hadn't even needed to use her martial soul.

On the other hand, he had gone all out. Enraged, he lost sight of his body's limits, and by the time he realized it, the world was spinning, and he had already collapsed onto the ground.

Looking at the contempt on Zhu Zhuqing's face, his vision darkened with fury.

Even now, he couldn't understand how this girl could be so fast.

She looked two or three years younger than him, so her soul power shouldn't surpass his. And yet, her speed and agility completely crushed him.

"You—"

Dai Mubai panted heavily, unsure whether he should curse at Zhu Zhuqing or complain about Ziji.

After all, he was the one who looked the most pathetic right now!

If his identity were exposed and news of this humiliation spread, the Star Luo royal family might even revoke his right to compete for the throne.

Zhu Zhuqing gave Dai Mubai a disgusted glance, feeling utterly repulsed.

The women of the Zhu family admired strength. If Dai Mubai had real power, she wouldn't care even if he had a thousand or ten thousand women.

But if he was just a weakling who still indulged in debauchery, then he was nothing but trash in her eyes.

Thinking about her teacher's ethereal and otherworldly presence, she found Dai Mubai even more revolting.

"Just the thought of someone like you... It would be better if you were dead!"

Zhu Zhuqing rarely spoke at length, but these words were meant for herself.

She would never lower herself to be with such a man in the future!

Dai Mubai almost coughed up blood from anger. He struggled to push himself up but fell back down again.

He was a genius, wasn't he?!

How had Zhu Zhuqing made him sound worse than a dead man?

It wasn't that he was weak—Zhu Zhuqing's speed and agility were just abnormal!

His gaze turned venomous as he looked at Zhu Zhuqing. No matter how beautiful her face was or how alluring her figure, he no longer felt any attraction to her.

"Ziji… Look at me! If my brother-in-law and sister see me like this, won't they blame you?"

Dai Mubai forced a weak smile, trying to shift the situation in his favor.

Ziji, who had been leaning against the wooden door, frowned at his words.

Would the master care about Dai Mubai? Of course not.

But if it was that old pervert… what would his reaction be?No—why should she care about what the old pervert thought?!

Ziji quickly shook her head and sneered, "You're just a weakling who couldn't even catch up to a little girl. And you think you deserve to step through this door? Keep dreaming!"

"..." Dai Mubai's face turned ashen.

Just then, a rapid set of footsteps approached.

All three turned their heads and saw Gu Yuena striding toward them.

Her expression was calm, and because she moved so quickly, no one noticed the subtle shift in her emotions.

"Sister… May I come in for a visit?"

Dai Mubai forced a smile and tried to make the first move.

Gu Yuena stopped, glanced at him, and immediately recalled Zhu Zhuqing's evaluation of him.

With a cold snort, she spat, "All scumbags deserve to die!"

She stomped her foot, and a sudden gust of wind surged.

Dai Mubai was lifted into the air, spun around several times, and then flung into the distance.

He traced a high arc before disappearing somewhere down the street.

If he were an ordinary person, he would have likely died from the impact.

Even with his enhanced physique, Dai Mubai was undoubtedly in for some serious pain!

Watching this, Ziji immediately realized—Master was angry!

Who had upset her after she went out?

Ziji's eyes lit up, sensing an opportunity. She quickly said, "Master—uh, I mean, Sister! Who made you mad? I'll help you get revenge!"

If she got her master's approval, she could use her status as the 'little sister-in-law' to stir up trouble again.

Just imagining it made her tail nearly wag with excitement!

Let that old pervert act like a good guy—he'd soon learn what it meant to be bullied!

Gu Yuena narrowed her eyes and looked at Ziji.

Her gaze was calm and emotionless.

Then she walked directly toward her.

Ziji suddenly felt a pang of unease.

Seeing Gu Yuena's expressionless approach, she forced a nervous smile.

"Sister… Sister, what's wrong?"

"Don't move," Gu Yuena said indifferently.

"..."

Ziji felt like she had been paralyzed, unable to budge.

She watched helplessly as Gu Yuena got closer, unable to sense any emotion from her at all.

Her pupils dilated as a gust of wind carried Gu Yuena forward.

Then—Gu Yuena grabbed Ziji's cheeks.

She pinched hard, stretching her fair skin nearly twice its original size, quickly turning it red.

Then, she leaned in and whispered in Ziji's ear, "Don't use your soul power to heal it."

"..."

Ziji's heart pounded violently. The Master in this state was terrifying!

She felt as if she was truly about to die, swallowed by an overwhelming darkness.

It wasn't until Gu Yuena left that she was finally pulled back to reality by the burning pain.

In her heart, she could only curse—

"This is all that old pervert's fault…!"

—

Dan Heng returned home after work as usual.

He felt a strange sense of unease about Gu Yuena, but he didn't break his routine.

Just like how he had developed a habit of reading—he wasn't necessarily passionate about it, but he read regularly nonetheless.

In the courtyard, Ziji was peeking sneakily into the house from the doorway.

Zhu Zhuqing was in the kitchen, preparing ingredients.

Hearing him return, Ziji turned her head and immediately showed an angry expression.

Her seductive, charming face was now slightly swollen, making her look unexpectedly cute.

Ziji stormed over to Dan Heng.

She covered her sore cheeks, which were still burning from Gu Yuena's grip.

And all of this was Dan Heng's fault!

If he hadn't angered the Master, why would she have been punished too?!

"Brother-in-law! What the hell did you do?!"

Ziji grabbed Dan Heng by the collar, her round eyes glaring at him fiercely.

If she could, she wanted him to suffer the same pain she had endured!

Dan Heng looked at her calmly. His little sister-in-law was genuinely furious.

Her hostility toward him was nearly as intense as Blade's.

Of course, Ziji was far weaker than Blade and posed no real threat to him… though Blade wasn't a life-threatening danger to him either.

Dan Heng shook his head, pushed Ziji's hand aside, and walked into the house.

He thought—should he apologize to Gu Yuena?

Would that restore peace in their home?

Or should he just let things unfold naturally until their relationship crumbled?

Ziji followed him, becoming even angrier when he ignored her. She hissed in a low voice, "Brother-in-law! Don't think I won't teach you a lesson!"

"I'm very strong! If you make me mad, you'll definitely regret this!"

Ziji gritted her teeth, a gloating glint in her eyes.

Once that old pervert saw the Master, he was bound to suffer too, right?

She had to watch this happen with her own eyes!
