Chapter 158 Tang San's defenses crumbled! My Xiao Wu, she's now with Lu Ming?!
"Yes." Zhu Zhuqing nodded. "I want you to stay with me."
This was the first time she had taken the initiative to ask a man out.
Lu Ming smiled and patted her shapely bottom. "Go change your clothes first."
...
The night market in Tiandou City remains as bustling as ever.
The streets were brightly lit, and the cries of various vendors rose and fell.
Lu Ming changed back into casual clothes and walked ahead with his hands in his pockets.
Zhu Zhuqing changed back into a black dress, but this time it wasn't the leather outfit that exuded a fighting spirit.
Instead, it was a slightly more ladylike style, but it still perfectly accentuated her stunning figure.
Instead of maintaining her usual aloof distance, she naturally took Lu Ming's arm.
The soft touch coming from her arm made Lu Ming sigh that this girl was indeed well-endowed.
The two walked side by side in the bustling crowd, just like an ordinary couple deeply in love.
Passersby frequently glanced at them.
After all, a beauty of Zhu Zhuqing's caliber is simply too eye-catching.
Although Lu Ming, who was beside her, had an outstanding temperament, to outsiders, the intimacy between the two was something to be envied and resented.
Zhu Zhuqing felt more relaxed than ever before.
Since arriving at Shrek Academy, she has been on edge at all times.
But now, holding the arm of the man beside her, she felt a sense of security she had never felt before.
It's as if as long as he's there, even if the sky falls, it doesn't matter.
The two bought some snacks from a roadside stall, and Zhu Zhuqing even showed a faint smile for the first time. That moment of charm made the surrounding lights pale in comparison.
However, this heartwarming scene was witnessed by a pair of eyes on the second floor of a teahouse not far away.
"Snap!"
The teacup in Dai Mubai's hand was instantly crushed into powder, and the scalding tea flowed down between his fingers, but he seemed to feel no pain.
Those evil eyes were filled with thick bloodshot veins and raging fury.
That's Zhu Zhuqing!
That's his fiancée!
Although he usually frequents brothels and is indifferent to Zhu Zhuqing, he even came here to fool around in order to escape family competition.
But in his subconscious, Zhu Zhuqing was his private property.
But now, this woman who usually ignores him and is as cold as ice is openly flirting with another man in the street!
And that man was actually Lu Ming!
"You shameless...you two!"
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words.
Intense feelings of humiliation and jealousy were consuming his reason.
If they weren't still on the street, and if he weren't still mindful of the academy's rules, he would have rushed down and torn Lu Ming to pieces right now.
"Three days later..."
Dai Mubai took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the murderous intent in his heart, his eyes as sinister as a venomous snake.
"The match between Shrek Academy and Blue Tyrant Academy will be held in three days. Lu Ming, let's see if you can still laugh when you step onto the Soul Arena!"
He wanted to crush this good-for-nothing under his feet in front of Zhu Zhuqing, to let her know who the real strongman was and who her only support was.
On the street.
Zhu Zhuqing seemed to sense something, frowned slightly, and glanced back in the direction of the teahouse.
"What's wrong?" Lu Ming asked.
"It's nothing, it just feels like there's a disgusting fly staring at me." Zhu Zhuqing withdrew her gaze, her tone indifferent.
She tightened her grip on Lu Ming's arm, as if asserting her dominance.
"Oh, right."
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly remembered something and said softly, "Three days later, Blue Tyrant Academy will have a match with Shrek Academy."
At this point, Zhu Zhuqing looked at Lu Ming with a strange expression.
She might have worried about Lu Ming before.
But now...
Recalling the horrific scene in the bathroom, Zhu Zhuqing felt that this competition was simply a joke.
Why would you send a group of Soul Masters, whose highest level is only around 30, to fight a Soul Saint who has a 100,000-year Soul Ring and a Soul Power of 76?
This is not a competition, this is a massacre.
"Oh? The Shrek Team?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Ming's lips curled into a playful smile. "That's good. There are some scores that need to be settled."
Tang San, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun...
Since these people have come to us of their own accord, we shouldn't blame them for being impolite.
"Will you play then?" Zhu Zhuqing asked, a hint of anticipation flashing in her eyes.
"It depends on my mood," Lu Ming said casually. "If they get too cocky, I don't mind going up and loosening their muscles."
The two continued to stroll around the city, enjoying this rare moment of alone time.
Night was falling.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the city, in the garden of the hotel where the Shrek crew was staying.
The moonlight was cold and desolate.
Tang San stood alone by the flower bed, looking at the closed door not far away, his eyes filled with loneliness and confusion.
That's Xiaowu's room.
Since the last time the chat group exposed the scandals about Tang San secretly learning inner sect techniques in his previous life and using living people to test poison in order to create hidden weapons.
Xiao Wu's attitude towards Tang San underwent a subtle change.
Some seeds, once planted, will take root and sprout.
Tang San had just bought Xiao Wu's favorite carrots and some snacks from the waiter, intending to knock on her door to have a heart-to-heart talk and try to mend their somewhat distant relationship.
As a result, the door wasn't even opened.
All that came from inside was Xiao Wu's indifferent voice: "I'm tired, I want to sleep, don't bother me."
Even the affectionate way she used to fawn over him and call him "Third Brother" was gone.
"Why..." Tang San was unwilling.
In his eyes, Xiao Wu belonged to him, and everything about her belonged to Tang San.
Soul rings and soul bones are also examples.
But now, for some reason, Xiao Wu has suddenly changed.
This feeling of losing control was hard for Tang San to accept!
...
Time passed slowly.
The sunlight was a bit dazzling at the edge of the playground of Blue Tyrant Academy.
Lu Ming had just finished his morning exercise, with Zhu Zhuqing, who had a cool and aloof expression, by his side.
As the two were about to head to the cafeteria, a pink figure suddenly darted out from behind a row of willow trees in the distance, bringing with it a fragrant breeze, and rushed straight up to Lu Ming.
"Lu Ming!"
The person who arrived was Xiao Wu.
Her signature scorpion braid swayed behind her as she came to an abrupt stop.
Lu Ming stopped and looked at the panting rabbit girl in front of him with a calm expression.
"What's up?"
Xiao Wu took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, and said loudly:
"I want to join the Blue Tyrant team!"
"I want to transfer schools! I want to compete in the Soul Master Tournament with you guys!"
Lu Ming raised an eyebrow, but before he could speak, Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Xiao Wu first, her eyes showing little surprise.
After all, in that chat group, Tang San's dirty secrets had already been thoroughly exposed.
