Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 443: Girl, are you feeling lost?

Meanwhile, in Tiandou City, the former residence of the Crown Prince.

Since Xue Qinghe ascended the throne, there are very few people left in the Crown Prince's residence.

Zhu Zhuqing was one of them. As for the others, they were basically spies arranged by Xue Qinghe to monitor Zhu Zhuqing.

Of course, these eyeliners are also called servants.

"Finally reached level 60."

Zhu Zhuqing, who had been sitting cross-legged on the bed, got up, a hint of loneliness flashing in her beautiful eyes.

Despite her young age, she has already reached the Quasi-Soul Emperor level, possessing extraordinary talent.

But she knew very well just how weak a Quasi-Soul Emperor was.

"At my current cultivation speed, I'm afraid I'll become cannon fodder..."

No one wants to be cannon fodder, especially given the chance to do it all over again; she'd be even less willing to become cannon fodder.

But what could she do?

She was desperate too!

Time passed by, and despite his desperate efforts to cultivate, he was unable to achieve his desired results.

"If I had ten more years, perhaps I would..."

The situation on the mainland has changed drastically, and it is no longer the Douluo Continent she remembers.

No matter how hard she tries, during the great battle, she will at most be a Soul Douluo. If she doesn't have any special opportunities, or if the great battle is brought forward, she might not even be qualified to be cannon fodder.

"No, I must speed up my cultivation."

Zhu Zhuqing murmured something and prepared to sit cross-legged to continue her cultivation.

Suddenly, a voice rang out from beside her. The deep voice made Zhu Zhuqing shudder and her expression change drastically.

"Young lady, are you feeling lost?"

Zhu Zhuqing subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound, and what she saw shocked her.

She had never seen such a humanoid creature before!

The person was surrounded by flowing flames, and his body floated in the air, looking extremely eerie.

An ominous aura emanated from him, a feeling that sent chills down Zhu Zhuqing's spine.

It's important to know that her martial spirit is a cat, which gives her an exceptionally keen sense of danger.

She sensed the presence of death emanating from this "strange person"!

The fact that the other party didn't make a direct move is already a stroke of good luck amidst misfortune.

"Who are you?"

Zhu Zhuqing subconsciously took two steps back towards the door, ready to flee immediately if the other party made any unusual move.

The mere presence of that aura filled her with terror, indicating that she was no match for the person before her.

If you don't escape, are you just waiting to die?

Seeing this, the "weirdo" shook his head. If he really wanted to make a move, Zhu Zhuqing would have no chance of resisting.

escape?

Did she have a chance to escape?

The "strange man" held his right hand in front of him, bowed slightly like a knight, and greeted Zhu Zhuqing before saying, "My name is Yuan Shang. I have been observing you for some time now. Of course, as a gentleman, I would never look at anything I shouldn't."

Yuan Shang said very sincerely that he had indeed not seen anything he shouldn't have.

Although he has become a "monster", he is not inherently bad and still retains his personality from his previous life.

This is one of the reasons why His Highness the Prince would bring him along.

Zhu Zhuqing: "..."

Upon hearing this, his expression turned very strange. What was this feeling of "protesting too much"?

Judging from the other party's behavior, they are unlikely to be lying.

After a moment's thought, Zhu Zhuqing asked, "What do you want to do?"

Before she knew what the "monster" in front of her was going to do, Zhu Zhuqing dared not make any rash moves, for fear of directly provoking the "monster".

Yuan Shang shrugged, not taking Zhu Zhuqing's wariness to heart; this was a normal reaction.

He looks quite frightening.

"I just noticed you seemed very lost and wanted to offer some help. If you don't need it..."

At this point, Yuan Shang paused, then continued, "Should I leave?"

Yuan Shang's voice was hoarse, like a low murmur from the abyss, but his words made Zhu Zhuqing somewhat stunned.

Why does this guy look a bit scruffy?

Then I go?

Seeing that she seemed a bit lost, I wanted to offer her some help.

Zhu Zhuqing knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world, and that all goods had their prices set long ago.

But isn't she in need of help right now?

Zhu Zhuqing fell into deep thought, looking very conflicted. Yuan Shang, however, was not in a hurry and quietly watched Zhu Zhuqing without saying a word.

After a moment, Zhu Zhuqing raised her head, a glint in her eyes, and looked directly at Yuan Shang, asking, "What kind of help?"

It's not impossible to improve one's strength by paying a price, but she needs to know what that price is.

There are some costs she cannot afford, and even if she could, she would not do them.

"There are many ways to quickly improve your strength, especially for us, it's very simple."

Yuan Shang shrugged again and said very kindly, "We can give you power, but we need you to do something for us."

"???"

Zhu Zhuqing was filled with questions. The other party could give her power, but there were things he couldn't do?

Could it be?

Zhu Zhuqing looked down at her toes, a strange glint in her eyes, but she didn't dwell on it.

That can't be the case; it's probably something else.

"You look lost again."

Yuan Shang said with some helplessness, "Zhu Zhuqing's naturally suspicious appearance is really not very cute."

The princess was quite adorable at that moment, with that dazed look... cough cough, Yuan Shang thought about it in his heart, but he wouldn't say it out loud.

Whose backpack is filled with so many sweet flowers?!

"Young lady, this is a golden opportunity, for it may never come again."

Yuan Shang tried to persuade him, but seeing that Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat unmoved, he felt even more helpless.

"If you think my appearance is strange and therefore assume I'm a bad person..."

"Then I can meet you in a different form."

Zhu Zhuqing: "..."

This guy from the abyss is really toxic!

With a flash of red flame, Yuan Shang transformed into a human, giving the impression of a scholar, and was quite refined.

However, Zhu Zhuqing dared not approach the other party; this "monster" could actually transform into a human form...

Is it possible that Yuan Shang was originally human?

"What...or rather, what exactly do you all want to do?"

Zhu Zhuqing still yearned for power, but she wanted to know even more what price she would have to pay to get the help the other party was talking about.

If it were a special matter, she would rather die than comply!

Of course, if it concerns any plans of the Star Luo Empire, she will agree without hesitation.

After all, cooperating with "Xue Qinghe" is a collaboration, and cooperating with this "monster" called Yuan Shang is also a collaboration.

"Young lady, you should know that we can give you power, and we can give power to others as well."

"It's not because you're special..."

Yuan Shang bluntly stated that he was the first to tell Zhu Zhuqing that what they were after was not Zhu Zhuqing's power, because Zhu Zhuqing's power was worthless in front of him.

"I understand, so..."
