Douluo: The Son of Martial Soul, Deceiving All the Women

Chapter 223 A Unique Way of Getting Along

Zhu Zhuyun was stunned for a moment, then her eyes darted around, and she thought of trying to trick Bai Yu into revealing information, just like she had tricked Zhu Zhuqing.

Although she didn't know what Zhu Zhuqing was thinking, the fact that she was able to trick Bai Yu into coming meant one thing: her sister had not only taken her joke seriously, but had also agreed to it.

But this is a bit strange. Judging from her sister's reaction, shouldn't she have tried every means to prevent them from meeting? Why did she personally act as a matchmaker?
Just as her lips were about to move as she was about to make up a lie, she suddenly stopped.

She realized something: her younger sister, Zhu Zhuqing, wasn't on her side. If she lied to Baiyu now, she might be exposed before dawn.

After all, she didn't know when Zhu Zhuqing would come, and even if he didn't come tonight, wouldn't the truth be revealed when the two of them met tomorrow?
It's fine to tease her sister, but if she takes advantage of Zhu Zhuqing's status and starts making up stories to deceive the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

Even if she has Xingluo's background and won't be retaliated against in person, what about her sister? Her sister is working for them.

The older sister caused trouble, and the younger sister just watched and laughed it off—this is something you shouldn't do.

The words that Zhu Zhuyun was about to say suddenly changed.

"She's not here. She took me to a room here before, and then ran out, leaving me here alone. I don't know the specifics."

"However, since you're here to see Zhu Qing, why don't you come in and wait? She might be back soon."

Zhu Zhuyun spread her hands, indicating that she knew nothing about this or that! Then she stepped aside and invited Baiyu into the house to wait.

Bai Yu frowned and followed Zhu Zhuyun into the room. After scanning the surroundings, he did not find Zhu Zhuqing anywhere.

He was quite confused at this moment. Based on his understanding of Zhu Zhuqing, although the girl did not object to him finding women, she would not help him find women either, let alone that the person was Zhu Zhuyun.

He even suspected that the letter was written by Zhu Zhuyun, with the aim of luring him out and then setting him up in a honey trap!
But this shouldn't be the case. He confirmed with the guards before he came that it was indeed Zhu Zhuqing who delivered it. If the guards could even forget who the person was, they wouldn't be doing their job of guarding the mountain.

Then Baiyu scratched his head, sat down in a chair, and said somewhat confusedly:

"You mean, she left you here and then called me here? But that's impossible. By the way, what did you two talk about before?"

"Forget about that for now, let's find the person first."

"Water reflects the moon's image!"

As soon as Bai Yu finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it. The surrounding water elements condensed, and a round water mirror, about half the height of a person, appeared in front of the two of them.

With Bai Yu's current strength, his perception can cover a large part of Wuhun City. Based on his understanding of Zhu Zhuqing's soul power, finding her would be a piece of cake.

As a flash of silver light appeared in the white fish's eyes, a clear image appeared on the originally transparent water mirror.

Zhu Zhuqing was standing in front of the bed, spreading out the quilt. After she finished, she turned her head and looked out the window with an indescribably strange expression.

Then he took off his coat, lay down, closed his eyes, and started to sleep.

Bai Yu's lips twitched, and he waved his hand to disperse the water mirror. Good, good, this unlucky guy, he tricked him over here, and then ran back to sleep, right?
Zhu Zhuyun's eyes widened in astonishment. Bai Yu's move was simply astounding. She never imagined that such a technique existed in the world.

"Ahem, Your Highness, was that really Zhu Qing in the water curtain just now?" "How did you do that? That's amazing! With that move, Your Highness could see whoever you wanted!"

Bai Yu glanced at the surprised Zhu Zhuyun, then shook her head slightly.

"It's not as powerful as you think. This move can only be used on people I know very well, or people who have been marked by my soul power."

"If it's a stranger, you can't find it; you can only look for the city reflected in the mirror and search for it bit by bit."

"Let's not talk about that. Let's talk about you and Zhuqing. What's going on between you two? Why did she bring me here?"

Hearing Bai Yu's question, Zhu Zhuyun felt a little embarrassed. How could she say that she was joking with Zhu Zhuqing, trying to seduce you, the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, and that her sister took it seriously?
Zhu Zhuyun was caught in a dilemma, her face flushed, and finally she sighed and decided to give up.

"Fine, I'll tell you then. Even if I don't, Baiyu will find out by asking Zhu Zhuqing later." She then recounted her entire experience of going to Zhu Zhuqing to inquire about information that day.

"That's the situation. You know what happened next."

Zhu Zhuyun slumped into a chair, her voice weak. She felt utterly humiliated and cursed Zhu Zhuqing in her heart.

If it weren't for her foolish sister, why would she tell the truth? Knowing her personality, she would definitely have given Baiyu a good beating today.

Bai Yu scratched the corner of his mouth, his expression strange. He had now figured out why Zhu Zhuqing had tricked him into coming here; it turned out she wanted him to rescue her sister, Zhu Zhuyun.

Then Baiyu chuckled and said with a hint of amusement:
"Hehe, you two are interesting. You're afraid your sister will fall into a trap, so you go and trick her in the middle of the night."

"Then Zhuqing thought you were really interested in me, and took this opportunity to trick me into coming here, hoping I would help you out."

"I have to say, the way you two sisters get along is quite unique!"

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Zhu Zhuyun frowned, a look of confusion flashing in her eyes. What did he mean by asking Bai Yu to help her? Was she in some kind of danger?
"Your Highness, what did you mean by what you just said? Is there something that makes Zhu Qing feel that you, as the Holy Son, need to intervene to protect me?"

Baiyu picked up the teacup, toyed with it in his hand for a moment, and then said in a detached tone:
"If I told you that the Star Luo Empire would be destroyed in just a few years, would you believe me?"

Zhu Zhuyun's pupils contracted, then trembled violently. If someone else had said those words, she would have absolutely scoffed at them.

But the person in front of him was no ordinary person. He was the next leader of the Spirit Hall, and even now, he was a highly influential Holy Son of the Spirit Hall.

"Does His Highness mean that the Spirit Hall is going to take action against the Star Luo Sect?"

"Heh, I'm afraid it won't be that easy. Right now, all the forces on the continent are watching the Spirit Hall. If you make a move, you will be attacked from all sides. As for destroying Star Luo, I'm afraid you don't have that much of an appetite!"

Zhu Zhuyun's voice turned cold. No matter what, her current identity was that of the Star Luo Prince's Consort, so even if she was not strong enough, she had to bite the bullet and confront Bai Yu.

After all, in this situation, if the tone is wrong and they are plotted against, it would be a disaster for the Zhu family.
