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

Chapter 40: Chapter 40: The Timid Zi Ji



At the entrance of a hotel, the Shrek group was watching a soul duel between a leather-clad girl and Dai Mubai.

Dai Mubai had already released his martial soul. As soon as the White Tiger appeared, three spirit rings rhythmically pulsed around him—yellow, yellow, and purple—radiating powerful energy that made onlookers weak in the knees.

His opponent, Zhu Zhuqing, also had three spirit rings, but her third ring was of a deeper hue.

Tang San commented, "This girl's third spirit ring has a higher age limit than any other third ring I've seen. Her attacks are also sharp and ruthless. I'm afraid Boss Dai won't be her match."

"Huh? But she looks about the same age as us!" Oscar exclaimed in disbelief.

The students of Shrek Academy were already considered little monsters, yet this girl was effortlessly surpassing them?

Ning Rongrong clapped her hands in excitement. "Go, my good sister! Teach this pervert a lesson!"

Xiao Wu, always eager for some drama, cheered, "Go for it! That pervert is already exhausted! You can definitely win! Just don't let him beat you!"

Hearing the two girls exposing his past deeds, Dai Mubai felt like his lungs were about to explode!

He could clearly sense that the girl before him was his fiancée, Zhu Zhuqing, as their martial souls resonated with each other.

Now, not only was he losing to his fiancée, but his scandalous past was also being exposed?

How was he supposed to face Zhu Zhuqing after this?!

"Can you two shut up already?!" Dai Mubai roared, throwing a heavy punch at Zhu Zhuqing, only for her to easily evade it.

Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu ignored his rage and stuck their tongues out at him.

"If you've done it, why be afraid of people talking about it? When we first arrived in Soto City…" Xiao Wu began recounting the tale of Dai Mubai and the twin sisters.

Dai Mubai anxiously glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, afraid that she would hold a grudge because of this.

However, Zhu Zhuqing continued attacking him without the slightest hesitation, completely unfazed by the conversation.

Did she not care about these things? Or did she not care about him?

Dai Mubai was starting to panic. Zhu Zhuqing's attitude was too strange.

Moreover, how had she improved so quickly?!

Despite being three years younger than him, she had also reached the Spirit Elder level?

And what was with this terrifying movement technique and combat skills? Where did she even learn them?!

Zhu Zhuqing moved like a ghost, dodging and weaving around Dai Mubai, making him look like a fool. She coldly remarked,

"Useless! Is this the best you can do?"

Xiao Wu's gossip didn't affect her in the slightest.

After all, after meeting an exceptional man like Dan Heng, she had no expectations for any other man.

No matter how bad Dai Mubai was, it didn't stir any emotions in her. She had already stopped caring about him entirely.

"You're asking for death!!!" Dai Mubai's face twisted with fury. He suddenly accelerated, summoning a white energy wave in front of him.

But before he could even launch the attack—

"Nether Slash!"

Zhu Zhuqing struck first.

A dark shadow-like slash hit Dai Mubai square in the chest, sending him flying and crashing into a pillar at the hotel entrance!

"Boom!!!"

That impact wasn't light.

Dai Mubai coughed up a mouthful of blood. Clutching his waist with one hand and supporting himself with the other, he struggled to get up. Glaring at Zhu Zhuqing with fury, he growled,

"You're dead!"

Dai Mubai was completely enraged. Losing to his fiancée, who was three years younger than him, was utterly humiliating.

If news of this reached the Star Luo Empire, his father would likely disown him outright, deeming him unworthy of the throne!

Tang San and the others were stunned. They hadn't expected Zhu Zhuqing to be this ruthless.

But even if they wanted to intervene, taking her on together wouldn't be easy.

Just then, a figure rushed over from a distance.

At the same time, a voice shouted, "Stop!!!"

Dai Mubai turned to see that it was Zhao Wuji. He immediately shouted, "Teacher Zhao! Come quick! Someone is targeting Shrek Academy…"

The next second, a gust of wind blew past as Zhao Wuji sprinted over. His large, rugged face was flushed red—clearly, he had been running at full speed.

Oscar, recalling Shrek Academy's usual style, quickly advised,

"Teacher Zhao, let it go. She's just a girl, probably didn't know how to hold back. No need to—"

But Zhao Wuji didn't even look at Oscar. He went straight to Dai Mubai and grabbed his blonde hair, lifting him off the ground.

"Little girl, did this brat offend you? Don't be scared. Just say the word, and I'll teach him a lesson for you!" Zhao Wuji said, before punching Dai Mubai in the stomach, making him curl up like a cooked shrimp.

"???"

"!!!"

The Shrek students were dumbfounded.

The usually overprotective Zhao Wuji was now beating Dai Mubai for an outsider?

Had the sun risen from the west today?

Dai Mubai was also stunned. First, Zhu Zhuqing had beaten him up, and now, Zhao Wuji was finishing the job. He felt utterly wronged!

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head. "I just came to call Zi Ji back for dinner."

At that moment, a voice came from a second-floor window. Zi Ji stuck her head out and quickly said, "I'm not hungry! I'll skip dinner today!"

Zi Ji refusing food? That was rare.

"Master's wife told you to return." Zhu Zhuqing stated before turning to leave.

Zi Ji's face twisted in distress. Right now, she really didn't want to see that old pervert.

That Aqua Azure Dragon attack had nearly scared the life out of her.

But if her lord insisted, then even if she had to die, she had no choice but to go…

Zi Ji sighed, jumped out of the window, and marched toward the courtyard with a look of resignation.

Meanwhile—

"Teacher Zhao… cough cough, can you put me down now? Why did you…" Dai Mubai looked at Zhao Wuji, feeling utterly betrayed. Weren't they supposed to be on the same side?!

Zhao Wuji grinned maliciously, leaning in close and speaking in a chilling tone,

"Dai Mubai, looks like you completely ignored my warning before. Today, I have to teach you a lesson!"

Although Zhao Wuji was smiling, the others all shuddered.

They could only look at Dai Mubai with sympathy.

Zi Ji arrived at the courtyard, tiptoeing cautiously like a thief. She peeked around the doorway, checking if anyone was inside.

Just thinking about that Aqua Azure Dragon attack was enough to make her behave.

After offending that old pervert Dan Heng so many times, would he punish her now?

"What are you standing there for?"

Dan Heng suddenly appeared behind her, asking curiously.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Zi Ji screamed, so startled that she fell backward onto the ground. Panicked, she scrambled to crawl inside, hiding behind Gu Yuena.

Dan Heng looked at her, perplexed.

Had this woman gone mad again?

Gu Yuena, irritated, snapped, "Stop messing around! Zi Ji, you're going to be our coachman!"
