Chapter 49 Baihu Kneels, Zhu Zhuqing Feels Extremely Safe!_1

The hotel corridor was a mess, littered with broken stones and holes everywhere.

The Zhu Zhuqing Sisters covered their lips in shock, staring at the scene before them.

Cries of disbelief rang out repeatedly.

"Impossible!"

"How could I possibly be defeated!!"

"And how could I be defeated so miserably?"

Dai Mubai's evil eyes dimmed, his gaze vacant.

He simply couldn't believe the reality he was facing.

It was the ultimate irony.

In just an instant, the man he had just mocked had killed him.

Now it wasn't just the piercing pain from all over his body that terrified Dai Mubai, but the trembling of his once-proud White Tiger Martial Soul within.

It was as if it had encountered a supremely terrifying entity, a total domination at the level of Martial Souls.

His own White Tiger Diamond Transformation, the so-called top-tier thousand-year soul skill, had become a joke in front of the other's iron fist.

As fragile as paper, utterly defenseless.

The man's iron claw-like palm was tightly gripping his throat, his smiling face like the Grim Reaper's, making him shudder in horror.

"You... Who the hell are you?"

Blood seeped from Dai Mubai's mouth, his eyelids trembling.

"Naturally, someone you cannot afford to provoke," Luo Yu said with a light smile, increasing the pressure in his palm.

"Crack."

Dai Mubai's eyes bulged, his neck turned a purple hue as if he were suffocating; his legs kicked out desperately, his face showing extreme fear and pleading.

"Please... please... spare me!"

A humble plea whined from Dai Mubai's throat.

"Spare you? You must be joking with me,"

"Weren't you just acting all high and mighty?"

Luo Yu's face showed a thick mockery.

"So now you're scared?"

"Sorry, too late!"

"Crack, crack."

Dai Mubai's bones emitted a sound of cracking, his breath growing weaker as he neared death.

"Wait a second!"

Zhu Zhuqing's voice suddenly came through.

Luo Yu's grip momentarily paused.

He glanced over.

The stunning girl, pursing her red lips, walked towards them with a shimmering gaze.

"That is, can you not kill him first?"

"Fine," Luo Yu said without hesitation, releasing his grasp.

With a bang!

Dai Mubai was flung against the wall like a piece of trash.

Seeing Luo Yu's decisiveness, Zhu Zhuqing looked surprised and stuttered, "You're not even going to ask me why?"

Luo Yu pulled out a white handkerchief, wiping the dust from his hands, his tone indifferent, "After all, he's just a piece of trash, and killing him anytime won't make a difference."

Dai Mubai had already risen from the ground, holding his neck with residual fear, gasping for air deeply, and looking at Zhu Zhuqing with grateful eyes, relieved he hadn't been completely defeated.

In his heart, she must have feelings for him; otherwise, why would she plea on his behalf?

Zhu Zhuqing cautiously looked into Luo Yu's eyes, as if afraid of some misunderstanding, and weakly said, "Actually, I didn't want to cause you any trouble because of me."

"This guy belongs to Shrek, and I was afraid that if you killed him for me, his teachers from the academy would come seeking revenge against you."

The slightly pleased Dai Mubai suddenly froze, his body trembling violently as if struck by lightning.

In contrast, Luo Yu initially felt a hint of displeasure, but seeing that Zhu Zhuqing was being considerate for his sake, that flicker of annoyance instantly dissipated.

Zhu Zhuqing, seeing that he was silent, became inexplicably anxious in her heart.

She had already seen Dai Mubai's arrogance and his ugly pleas for mercy in defeat and was extremely disappointed; now she had no thoughts of him at all.

She was now worried about what was going through Luo Yu's mind.

He wouldn't misunderstand her, would he?

Zhu Zhuqing's face turned pale as she hurriedly explained, "I really wasn't being considerate of him, I was afraid of creating trouble for you and making unnecessary enemies."

Luo Yu spread his hands, "The trouble's already been caused, not killing him would just be releasing the tiger back into the mountains, wouldn't it?"

Zhu Zhuqing's next words plunged the already battered Dai Mubai into deeper despair.

"The pill you used to control my sister last time, give him one too; that way he won't dare to talk nonsense!"

"Hiss..."

Luo Yu's gaze suddenly became strange.

"Why... why are you staring at me like that?" Zhu Zhuqing felt somewhat embarrassed.

Luo Yu clucked his tongue, "You're ruthless!"

Zhu Zhuqing stamped her feet repeatedly, huffing, "I'm giving you advice to lessen the trouble, and yet you mock me; I don't want to talk to you anymore."

"Cough cough."

"I'm just surprised, he's your fiancé, and I have no connection with you; why would you help me?"

"Who says we have no connection!"

Zhu Zhuqing immediately pouted.

"You are my lifesaver. Without you, I would have died."

She then looked coldly at Dai Mubai, "What has this man done to help me?"

"He only left me in dangerous places while he himself enjoyed the company of other women, even calling me an ornament that's only for show and not for use. How could I have any good feelings for him? There's no affection, only hatred!"

Killing someone cut deeper than a physical wound, and Dai Mubai's face turned ashen.

Every word Zhu Zhuqing said was like a knife cutting into him, making the pain worse than death, and what made it even more unbearable was that everything she said was true, leaving him no room to refute.

Luo Yu slowly stood up, his large hand caressing Zhu Zhuqing's falling black hair.

The woman did not resist, allowing the man to do as he pleased.

"Rustle."

Zhu Zhuqing felt the warmth from his wide palm, healing the heart wounded by Dai Mubai. The coldness on her face disappeared, turning into gentleness and relief.

"Alright, I understand what you mean. I'll take care of the rest."

Luo Yu withdrew his hand and walked towards Dai Mubai, who was in the corner.

As his palm left, Zhu Zhuqing felt a sense of loss.

Watching his retreating figure, she suddenly realized that from a point she couldn't define, she, who had never felt secure since she was little, had developed a deep dependency on this man without even realizing it.

"Rip!"

A large piece of cloth was torn off from Dai Mubai's body by Luo Yu and thrown on the ground.

"You... what are you going to do!"

Luo Yu sneered, "I'm asking you, do you want to live or die?"

"I want to live, I want to live! Please spare my life, I was blind," Dai Mubai answered in a panic.

"Then write it down on that," Luo Yu pointed to the strip of cloth.

"Write what?" Dai Mubai looked bewildered.

Luo Yu narrowed his eyes, "Do you still think your marriage contract with her should count?"

Dai Mubai shook his head repeatedly, his lips still dripping blood, "No, it doesn't count, it doesn't count at all! You and she are the ones truly meant for each other."

What nonsense! Zhu Zhuqing spat disdainfully to the side, her face flushing red, yet she did not contradict.

Luo Yu glared, "Then don't you understand what to write?"

Dai Mubai trembled and replied helplessly, "But look, I don't have a pen."

Luo Yu's eyes flashed, "It seems your blood hasn't flowed nearly enough."

Dai Mubai's eyes trembled, and he immediately lay on the ground, using his blood-drenched finger to shakily write a line of blood script and respectfully handed it to Luo Yu, his eyes filled with a plea for mercy.

"I, Dai Mubai, voluntarily acknowledge that I'm unworthy of Zhu Zhuqing, and from today on, the marriage contract is null and void."

Hearing these words, Zhu Zhuqing showed a look of relief.

The shackles imposed on her by the family for many years were finally lifted.

From now on, she would be free.

Zhu Zhuqing cast a grateful look at the man, as if from the moment she met him,

her life gradually began to brighten.

"I've done everything you asked, now can I go?" Dai Mubai pleaded.

Luo Yu glanced at him, "Do you think everyone else is a fool?"

"I wouldn't dare!" Dai Mubai seemed to have his thoughts instantly exposed.

"Open your mouth."

"Swoosh!"

A black pill flew into Dai Mubai's mouth.

"What did you give me?" Dai Mubai asked in fear.

Luo Yu replied coldly, "No need for more words. If you live an honest life, nothing will happen."

"If you have any crooked thoughts again and dare to bring people here to cause trouble, nobody will be able to save you then."

"Not Shrek, not the Xingluo Empire, none of them will work!!!!"

The deadly aura flashing in Luo Yu's eyes instantly reminded Dai Mubai of the fear he had felt when he was under control.

"I won't dare, I won't dare to make trouble again, all these injuries are self-inflicted and have nothing to do with anyone else."

"Get lost," Luo Yu snorted coldly.

Dai Mubai, feeling as if he had received a great pardon, stumbled away, not even bothering to look after the twins who had been knocked unconscious by the aftershocks.

"Stop!"

Dai Mubai's footsteps halted instantly, and he looked back in panic.

Luo Yu frowned, "You think you can just walk away after wiping your hands? First, clean up the corridor, fix what needs to be fixed, pay where you need to pay, and call back everyone who ran off."

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll do it!" Dai Mubai busily began moving stones and cleaning up the scene.

Zhu Zhuyun was dazzled as she watched from behind; the man's domineering manner completely overwhelmed her.

So manly, so secure!

"Let's go, we're heading back to the room," Luo Yu said as he walked back.

"As you wish, Master," Zhu Zhuyun's heart and eyes were filled with thoughts of him.

Dai Mubai noticed Zhu Zhuyun and heard her addressing Luo Yu, his heart twitching at the realization.

"Master???"

"Wasn't she Davis's fiancée?"

"What's going on."
