Douluo: Adventure Begins from Wuhun City

Chapter 180, Unwilling to Give Up, Come Again
After returning to the Zhu family, Zhu Zhuqing was filled with shame and indignation, and was tortured and burned by the hatred in her heart all the time.

I was fidgeting in the dormitory, walking around and stopping frequently.

For a moment, she even had the urge to tell the Zhu family what happened today and ask them to send people to demolish the house and kill Chen Yao, that disgusting old man.

But when she became angry and just raised her leg, her body paused again.

It was as if all his energy had been drained out of him. He slumped down on the bed, his face pale and his eyes dull.

After she informed the Zhu family, perhaps the Zhu family would really avenge her for the sake of their reputation and let her get rid of her hatred.

But what happens after that?

The Zhu family would never understand her grievances.

Because of this incident, the Zhu family will be even more indifferent to her. The royal family may even think that she is defiled and no longer worthy of being the prince, and kick her out early.

The power struggle between these two families, which has been passed down since ancient times, is not something they can just withdraw from.

If it was really that easy, how could she have endured such great pressure for so long?
Therefore, once this matter is exposed, Zhu Zhuqing will be regarded as a stain by the two families and may even be liquidated early.

At her current age, facing such an outcome is nothing short of despair and difficult to accept!

Thinking of this possibility, Zhu Zhuqing's anger suddenly dissipated, and she felt cold all over. She couldn't help but hug her legs and curled up on the bed. Her face twitched and her eyes were sparkling, as if they would burst in the next second. She was filled with a desolate, helpless and broken feeling.

But in the end, she still controlled her emotions and did not let herself lose control and cry out loud. Since she was 3 years old, she already knew that crying would not solve any problems in the Zhu family. No one would come to comfort her, and she would only be ridiculed endlessly.

At the same time, she did not complain about her situation, because she understood that no one except herself could empathize with her, and daydreaming was just a waste of time and would only bring her one step further towards the abyss.

Zhu Zhuqing wiped the moisture from her eyes, huddled in the corner of the bed, and looked at the ceiling.

Since she couldn't get the Zhu family to avenge her, she only had one other choice.

That is to force yourself to forget what happened in the past two days, pretend that Chen Yao had never appeared, stick to your previous practice, and improve your strength according to the rules.

But the end of this road is already visible. She once thought that she could close the gap with hard work, but the harder she worked, the more she could see the gap, and the more desperate she felt.

If it weren't for the stubbornness and unwillingness in her heart, she really wanted to learn from her fiancé whom she had never met, living a life of drunkenness and depravity, so that at least she could enjoy a few more years of prosperity.

But her temperament was determined, and she couldn't accept her fate with peace of mind.

And now Chen Yao gave her a glimmer of hope. She benefited a lot from his guidance in just one afternoon, and her understanding of martial spirits also improved visibly.

This opportunity that she had always longed for, an opportunity to change her own destiny, is now clearly placed before her. Can she really just turn a blind eye to it and let it slip away from her hands?
Besides, Chen Yao had already taken advantage of her a lot, and the matter had become settled, irreversible and without revenge. Was she just going to accept it?
For a moment, Zhu Zhuqing's mind was filled with thoughts, her brows slightly furrowed, she turned her head to look to the side, her gaze through the window, towards the direction of Chen Yao's residence, her eyes full of entanglement and confusion.

The next day, Chen Yao climbed out of bed and looked at Gu Yuena, who was sleeping soundly with a peaceful expression and a smile on her lips. Chen Yao felt relieved.

His behavior yesterday was a bit excessive. He touched Zhu Zhuqing in front of Gu Yuena. Although he didn't say anything, he was very angry when he returned to his room.

Fortunately, Chen Yao used three methods at the same time, with the Blackbeard swooping spirit on both sides, and the Supreme Bone exerting its divine power, causing Gu Yuena to wail incessantly and roar like a dragon.

Finally, he used his unique skills, the Trinity, to move forward together, making Gu Yuena look horrified, her soul frightened, and she almost died. Then, he got what he wanted, and finally he calmed her down completely, and she fell into a deep sleep with a satisfied heart, body and mind.

With two clicks of the tongue, Chen Yao dressed himself and walked down the stairs, only to run into Qian Renxue, who had dark circles under her eyes.

Qian Renxue was very angry at Chen Yao's unscrupulous attack on Zhu Zhuqing yesterday. After returning to her room angrily, she heard about the difficult to calm down battle between humans and dragons upstairs. The noise was so loud and the impact was so widespread that it was like a great catastrophe in the ancient times, which made people horrified and shocked.

It would be strange if Qian Renxue could sleep.

Feeling Qian Renxue's expression which was filled with resentment and a bit of grievance, Chen Yao couldn't help but burst out laughing. He still clearly remembered how unruly Qian Renxue was in front of him when they were in the Spirit Hall.

But there is no doubt that Chen Yao likes Qian Renxue's expression at this moment more.

With a grin on his face, Chen Yao stepped forward, hugged Qian Renxue's slender waist, and one hand roamed freely on the roundness of her back.

Qian Renxue was stunned, then her cheeks turned red instantly, her whole body felt hot, and then she heard Chen Yao's voice ringing in her ears.

"Xue'er, you say you hate Bibi Dong, but in fact, all your actions are influenced by Bibi Dong, right?"

When Qian Renxue heard Chen Yao compare her with that old woman, she subconsciously wanted to refute, but was suddenly stunned again.

Because what Chen Yao said was true, when she looked back suddenly, she was shocked to find that in fact, what she did to Chen Yao at the beginning was all subconscious imitation and learning after seeing how Bibi Dong treated Chen Yao!
"It seems you've realized it, too."

Although she was reluctant to admit it, Qian Renxue still nodded.

"Then I will tell you today that I hate Bibi Dong's behavior. That's why I chose to escape from the Spirit Hall despite the good conditions there. During the four years I was in the Spirit Hall, I was mostly resentful of Bibi Dong. We may be irreconcilable in this life. Do you also want to have a relationship like mine and her?"

Chen Yao narrowed his eyes slightly at this moment, still with a smile on his face, but what he said made Qian Renxue feel cold all over and her face turned pale.

She looked terrified and shook her head repeatedly, not daring to speak. She just tightly grasped Chen Yao's clothes with both hands, with a pleading look in her eyes.

Seeing this, Chen Yao curled the corners of his lips and did not continue to scare Qian Renxue. Instead, he gently stroked her soft hair and spoke again.

"In fact, I was resistant to it before, not because I hated you. Between you and me, our martial spirits are compatible, and we are made for each other. You are also extremely beautiful, and there are few women in the world who can compare with you. At least from what I have seen now, except for Bibi Dong and Gu Yuena, no one can compare to you.

With these conditions, plus your love for me is obvious, and I am a wanton person, I should treasure your love, but why do I treat you like this, do you know?"

Hearing Chen Yao's words of praise for her was simply unprecedented. Qian Renxue was suddenly delighted, but then she was shocked again. Her face changed slightly and she asked cautiously, "Is it because of Bibi Dong?"

"Yes, you have such perfect conditions, but your every move is full of Bibi Dong's shadow. It would be fine if you have no interest in me, but if you can learn her domineering attitude, you can be like her and dominate the continent.
-
But you just have your heart set on me. Let's not talk about whether it's worth it or not. Just saying that if you use the method you learned from her on me, it will only make me more disgusted."

After hearing what Chen Yao said, Qian Renxue was struck by lightning and suddenly realized something. Subconsciously, she clenched her hands quietly and gritted her teeth. Her dissatisfaction with Bibi Dong increased.

That damn old woman, relying on her little bit of strength, acted so unscrupulously and didn't consider other people's feelings at all. She almost led her into a ditch.

If Chen Yao hadn't reminded her today, and she continued to do her own thing as before, she would probably really drift apart from Chen Yao. By then, she would have no place to cry!

She cursed in her heart, but she reacted very quickly and grabbed Chen Yao's hand.

"Xue'er doesn't want to either. Brother Chen Yao, can you teach me what to do?"

As she spoke, Qian Renxue's body flashed with light, her disguise was removed, and she turned into her delicate and lovely appearance again. She did not forget Chen Yao's praise of her appearance just now.

Then he pretended to be aggrieved and said with tears in his eyes.

When Chen Yao saw Qian Renxue's posture, he suddenly felt touched in his heart, and the Supreme Bone, which had finally rested for a while, moved again.

His expression remained expressionless, and his hands began to move silently over Qian Renxue's body. He pondered for a moment and said.

"Xue'er, you are doing very well now. In fact, I like you from the bottom of my heart. Seeing you like this, with your strength sealed, I feel very distressed. This is undoubtedly a waste of your potential, but in order to avoid being discovered by the people of the Spirit Hall, I have to do this. Xue'er, do you understand my painstaking efforts?"

When Qian Renxue heard this, her expression was also moved.

"Brother Chen Yao, it's Xue'er's fault. I'm sorry to have caused you so much trouble. Xue'er doesn't mind the soul seal. She just wants to stay by your side and will never go to the Spirit Hall to tip off. It's absolutely impossible for that old woman to find you!"

After hearing Qian Renxue's words, Chen Yao's expression changed slightly. What Chen Yao said just now was not completely nonsense, but he felt sorry for Qian Renxue's talent.

After all, Qian Renxue's innate soul power is level 20, which is unparalleled in the ages. In addition, it can be compatible with his own soul power and she cares about him. If she can change her temper, she will definitely be a powerful help to Chen Yao.

Chen Yao felt a little regretful that her soul power was sealed in this way, preventing her from making any progress.

Now, after hearing Qian Renxue's attitude, I feel that I can remove the seal and practice with him.

However, we have to give Qian Renxue some sweet treats to make her more devoted.

Thinking about it, Chen Yao said.

"Xue'er, I want you to stay by my side for selfish reasons, but I can't bear to see you waste your talent. Can you stay here with me until I become a Titled Douluo and no longer fear Bibi Dong? Then I will take you back to the Spirit Hall and claim your sovereignty."

Upon hearing Chen Yao's words, Qian Renxue's face was immediately filled with surprise. She nods heavily with surprise on her face.

"I am willing!"

Chen Yao grinned, and then a ball of darkness surged up from under him. Several black tentacles emerged and began to wrap around Qian Renxue's graceful body.

Amid Qian Renxue's rosy face, Chen Yao said with an evil smile.

"Xue'er is so good, but Gu Yuena hasn't woken up yet, so I can't unlock the seal for you. Why don't I take you there first?"

Chen Yao's voice became smaller and smaller, Qian Renxue's face became redder and redder, her whole body was hot, but her eyes were full of anticipation, and she nodded.

Chen Yao had a deep smile on his face. He had already expected Qian Renxue's attitude. After all, Qian Renxue had been looking forward to this for a long time.

In addition, Qian Renxue is not young now and has long exceeded the marriageable age in Douluo Continent. He is too lazy to be pretentious and plans to win her over in one fell swoop, which will also make Qian Renxue feel completely at ease and let her stay here with peace of mind.

Thinking of this, Chen Yao gathered his soul power at the Supreme Bone, put his arms around Qian Renxue's soft waist, and took her to the room.

But just as the two of them were snuggling together and were about to go into the house, there was a sudden and hurried knock on the door.

For a moment, Chen Yao was stunned, and Qian Renxue, who was about to succeed, looked even more gloomy.

Anyone who is interrupted at this extremely critical moment will feel angry and his blood rushing to his head.

Without even needing Chen Yao to say anything, Qian Renxue walked up to the door with resentful steps and opened it.

After opening the door, Qian Renxue was stunned at first when she saw Zhu Zhuqing with a cold face. She obviously did not expect that Zhu Zhuqing, who had slammed the door and left yesterday, would come to her again. But then, she became furious again.

"Why are you here again? You were so angry yesterday and looked down on your teacher. What are you doing here? Get lost!"

Qian Renxue said this and was about to close the door in a hurry.

While Zhu Zhuqing was still shocked by Qian Renxue's incomparably beautiful face, she wondered where this person came from. But when she saw her attitude and the familiar movement of closing the door, she immediately recalled the maid from yesterday.

Although she was still confused and unbelievable in her heart, Zhu Zhuqing was quick to block the door.

Qian Renxue's soul power was still sealed at this moment, and she was unable to stop Zhu Zhuqing at all. She could only watch her step into the hall, powerless to do anything.

After entering, Zhu Zhuqing breathed a sigh of relief and looked back and forth between Chen Yao and Qian Renxue. She could not connect Qian Renxue, the beautiful girl who made the royal princess look dull in comparison, with Chen Yao, the old man who seemed to be dying. Coupled with the previous sense of familiarity, she asked in some doubt.

"Are you the Xue'er from yesterday?"
