Chapter 47: The Arrogant and Domineering Dai Mubai, A Silent Comparison Between Two Men!_1

"Who gave me the guts?"

Luo Yu shrugged helplessly, scrutinizing the hysterical Dai Mubai with a faint upward twitch of his lips.

"It seems—"

"Facing trash like you, I don't need anyone to lend me courage."

"Huff, puff!"

Dai Mubai's chest heaved as he gasped for breath, his blood-red, sinister eyes filled with madness. His fists clenched tightly, causing a cracking sound, and his heart burned with raging fire.

"You're courting death!"

"Boom!"

A crazy surge of pale light burst from Dai Mubai's body, and his already large stature swelled once more. His bones crackled, and his muscles expanded to the limit, while his purple electric eyes emitted a bloodthirsty glare like that of a wild beast.

Instantly shattering the floor beneath him, he burst forth, brandishing his beastly, huge sharp tiger claws as he lunged to attack.

Luo Yu's face still wore an innocuous smile, yet a touch of indifference flashed deep in his eyes, and he slowly raised his right hand.

However, before he could make a move, the black silhouette by his side struck first.

"Second Soul Skill: Ghastly Hundred Claws!"

Dai Mubai, seeing the sharp claws aiming straight for his throat from the side, flipped over and retreated, dodging to one side.

His blood-red eyes lost their luster as he shook his head repeatedly, his hair wildly flying, looking at Zhu Zhuqing with heart-wrenching pain, "Why, why would you help this kid?"

"What's so good about him?"

"Average looks, mediocre strength, is he worthy of you?"

All of a sudden, Dai Mubai's pupils shook, and he spoke rapidly: "I get it now, you're using him to provoke me, trying to make me gather my wits and work harder, right? I understand."

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head, her gaze calm like still water, and even the anger she had previously displayed had disappeared. She spoke in an even tone, "Dai Mubai, I only have three questions for you."

"Who was it that dared not take responsibility, turned into a coward, became a deserter?"

"Who was it that had the heart to leave me alone in the Xingluo Empire to face the crisis?"

"Who was it that, when I was facing assassination, was flirting with another woman?"

Dai Mubai was eager to retort but found himself speechless.

He angrily pointed to Luo Yu and said, "No matter what, as my fiancée, you should behave properly. How dare you debase yourself with another man here?"

"Dai Mubai, watch your mouth. Don't think everyone is like you," Zhu Zhuqing retorted, her eyes growing even colder as if she had completely seen through the man before her. "Besides, you never fulfilled the duties of a fiancé for even a single day. Our engagement ends here."

"Hahaha."

Dai Mubai staggered back a few steps, suddenly bursting into laughter, looking wickedly at Zhu Zhuqing, "You, for such a man? You'd better not regret it."

"On your own, you'll only have a dead-end facing both Davis and Zhu Zhuyun."

Zhu Zhuqing said solemnly, "That's none of your concern."

"Heh, you might not know," Dai Mubai sneered, "but I've already joined Shrek Academy, which only recruits monsters. Even if I can't beat that guy Davis, with the support of our teachers, I'll be well protected."

"What does that have to do with me?" Zhu Zhuqing asked, irritation flickering in her eyes.

"If we join Shrek together, we can grow stronger in peace, and eventually, we might find a way out with our Martial Soul Fusion skill. Maybe one day we can even return to Xingluo Empire."

"But if you choose this kid, heh, can he protect you?"

"Come with me now, let me take care of this brat. Our future will be bright," Dai Mubai said ardently, his face once again brimming with self-confidence.

He didn't believe his words wouldn't move Zhu Zhuqing.

The mere Martial Soul Fusion skill was something she couldn't bear to part with.

Besides, that kid, even if we don't discuss strength, did he have a tenth of his own charm? He was a prince, after all!

Any fool would know which to choose.

Zhu Zhuqing started walking forward.

A smug smile appeared on Dai Mubai's face, he felt invigorated as if bathed in spring breeze, even casting a scornful glance at Luo Yu.

He slowly opened his arms, confident and welcoming, waiting for the woman to come to him.

Zhu Zhuqing stopped in her tracks, her voice level and still as an ancient well, "Dai Mubai, we have been friends for a long time. My last advice to you—don't mess with him."

"Leave now."

"Otherwise, you will die."

Dai Mubai's smile came to a sudden halt, he had never expected such an outcome.

At that moment, the two sisters from the room put on their clothes and came out, caressing his shoulder coquettishly, "Young Master Dai, it's just a woman. Is she worth your wrath? Besides, you have the two of us to keep you company."

Zhu Zhuqing let out a sneer and turned to walk towards Luo Yu.

"Scram!"

Dai Mubai flung them away with one sweep of his arm.

Under the enhancement of soul power, the two women were rudely thrown against the wall of the corridor.

Without giving the two women another glance, his gaze locked onto Luo Yu.

His eyebrows knitted tightly, his voice as fierce as an angry lion, yet filled with endless coldness.

"Kid, it's all because of you that this is happening."

"Today, I will tear you into pieces while you're still breathing."

Zhu Zhuqing abruptly turned around, her tone quiet, "Dai Mubai, do you truly wish to die?"

"Are you defending him?"

Dai Mubai gave a cold sneer, kneading his huge tiger paw, his lips curling with pride and disdain.

"I warn you, step aside now or I'll fight you too."

"Today, I'll slaughter him and not even the Heavenly King Lao Zi can protect him!"

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly laughed, stood aside, and made a welcoming gesture, "I have already warned you. Since you are courting death, so be it."

Dai Mubai laughed loudly, his voice rising in an almost insane pitch.

"Are you kidding me?"

"I, Dai Mubai, am fifteen years old, a thirty-seven leveled Battle Soul Elder!"

"Thinking of killing me, and with him..."

"Does he even qualify?"

"Boom!"

"Third Soul Skill: White Tiger King Kong Transformation!"

Dark patterns began to appear on Dai Mubai's fearsome muscular body, his tiger paws inflated further, and his entire body was enveloped in dazzling golden light, his blood-red eyes betraying the ferocity of the king of beasts.

He stepped towards Luo Yu with each step shaking the entire building.

A smirk of contempt and cruelty appeared on his lips; he did not want to crush his opponent outright, for that would be boring.

His intention was to gnaw away at the opponent's spirit bit by bit, to amplify his fear, to make him kneel before himself and to show Zhu Zhuqing just how pathetic this man she chose was.

With a vicious smile, Dai Mubai said, "Kid, if you're scared, just say it outright. Kneel and call me 'grandpa,' and I might consider sparing your life."

Luo Yu shook his head, sighing.

"It seems you've taken others' warnings as a breeze past your ears."

"I can't fathom who gave you such confidence to be so arrogant."

Dai Mubai's lips twisted in a sneer, "Kid, do you think I'm as foolish as the others?"

"I know you may have your own trump cards."

"But my third soul ring is the finest thousand-year soul ring, and I obtained the perfect soul skill that complements my top-tier beast martial soul."

"My strength, attack, and defense will all double."

"What do you have to compete with me!"

Hearing Dai Mubai boasting about his thousand-year soul ring, Zhu Zhuqing could hardly bear to look straight.

A flash of stunning red flickered through her mind.

The two men were contrasted against each other, one boasting of a thousand-year soul ring while the other was incredibly low-key despite having a hundred-thousand-year soul ring.

Zhu Zhuqing felt a stir in her heart, and she turned her gaze to Luo Yu, her eyes flickering.

She knew... Dai Mubai had met his end today...
