Chapter 72 Dai Mubai's Wrath

"What other relationship could there be? Just a good opposite-sex classmate relationship, I guess." Chen Xuan waved his hand, looking quite helpless.

Chen Yiyi blinked her jewel-like eyes, staring intently at Chen Xuan, expressing her suspicion.

From the first time she saw how Zhu Zhuqing and the older brother interacted, she felt something was off.

The two appear calm on the surface, but something is amiss, and the atmosphere is very strange.

The feeling she got was somewhat like that of a couple arguing and having a fight.

After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, the three entered the nearest town.

This time, Chen Xuan rented two luxurious carriages, leaving Zhu Zhuqing alone while he and Chen Yiyi sat in the front carriage.

Upon entering the carriage, a wave of drowsiness washed over him, and he fell asleep immediately.

After battling the Soul Emperor and traveling for a whole day, he was extremely exhausted and almost died. His soul power had been completely depleted earlier, and he had only managed to stay alive until now thanks to his physical strength. It had been incredibly difficult for him.

Chen Xuan fell into a deep sleep, undisturbed. The carriage bumped along at a slow pace, on a round trip to the Heavenly Dou Empire.

Time passed, night fell, and soon the night was over.

He was asleep, but some people couldn't sleep at night.

At Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai hadn't slept for several days. His eyes were bloodshot, and he had dark circles under his eyes. He looked like he was about to burst.

These past few days, because Zhu Zhuqing left the academy without a word, he hasn't slept much. He's tried everything he could to find and ask, but there's still no sign of Zhu Zhuqing.

Dai Mubai once thought that the Star Luo royal family had acted ahead of schedule, and that his elder brother, Davis, had made a move and secretly carried out some insidious actions.

For example, kidnapping Zhu Zhuqing was also a way to gather troops and make purchases.

However, after inquiring with important figures in the Star Luo royal family, he was told that Davis had never left the Star Luo Empire, and that the candidates for the throne could only be confirmed three years later, and the royal family would not allow the offspring to harm each other during this period.

After all, the Second Prince is dead, and now only Dai Mubai and Davis are qualified to compete for the throne. If anything happens to either of them, the other will be involved.

Davis wasn't that foolish. At the same time, he was very arrogant and didn't believe that his younger brother, who started cultivating so many years later, could surpass him and Zhu Zhuyun.

Dai Mubai was almost going crazy. If it wasn't the royal family who did it, then who else could it be?

Later, he was told that Chen Xuan had also disappeared. Not only did he miss the celebration banquet, but he also hadn't returned to Shrek Academy for several days. It seemed that he had disappeared on the same day as Zhu Zhuqing.

Later, he received news that someone had seen a stunningly beautiful, aloof woman with an extremely hot figure, long black hair, a round face, and gorgeous features. She was wearing a leather jacket and pants and got into the same carriage as a man, which then drove away from Tiandou City.

The man appeared to be a student of Shrek Academy. He had made a name for himself in the Continental Soul Master Competition, and his fourth ring was a black ten-thousand-year soul ring. He was very popular at the time, so much so that many people had a deep impression of him.

In the Shrek Academy team, only two members possess ten-thousand-year spirit rings. Everyone knows that Tang San loves Xiao Wu and would never do anything to steal his brother's fiancée.

Dai Mubai's expression was cold. As a seasoned player in the dating scene, he knew all too well what other men were thinking and what they were thinking. How could he not overthink things during this special period?

A lone man and a lone woman boarded the same carriage, alone in a confined and cramped environment. What would happen during that time is self-evident.

"Chen Xuan!" Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, his eyes almost bloodshot, wishing he could rush out and kill him immediately.

However, he didn't know Chen Xuan and Zhu Zhuqing's whereabouts, so he could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

The two men leisurely left Tiandou City in a carriage, clearly heading for a vacation.

In Dai Mubai's eyes, what difference was there between this behavior and a young couple going on their honeymoon?

His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was somewhat distorted.

Especially now, Zhu Zhuqing might be having an affair with another man, or even doing something outrageous, or she might have already discovered that kind of thing.

Dai Mubai felt like he had a green meadow growing on his head, and his face looked even more uncomfortable than if he had swallowed a fly.

His face was gloomy, and a fire was burning fiercely in his chest, which could no longer be suppressed and could explode at any moment.

"Mu Bai, calm down, don't be impulsive." Tang San stopped Dai Mu Bai from going berserk.

Ma Hongjun also came to persuade him, saying, "Yes, Boss Dai, there must have been some misunderstanding. Brother Chen shouldn't be that kind of person. Besides, if he wanted to cuckold you, there's nothing you can do now."

Ning Rongrong, Jiang Zhu, and the others were also busy, comforting Dai Mubai and advising him to be understanding.

Xiao Wu stood silently outside the crowd, looking somewhat out of place, because only she knew that Chen Xuan was that kind of person, evil-hearted and rotten to the core.

With everyone's persuasion, Dai Mubai's rage gradually subsided, and he slowly calmed down.

He acted impulsively just now, his anger clouded his judgment. No matter what, Zhu Zhuqing is engaged to him, that's a fact.

Given that Zhu Zhuqing was born into an aristocratic family, she must understand the complex relationship between the Zhu family and the Baihu family, and would never do anything to betray him.

However, this was only what Dai Mubai hoped for. He himself had been a womanizer and had dated countless women, so he understood very well that the royal family would not interfere in this matter.

Even if Zhu Zhuqing had something happen with another man behind his back, there was nothing he could do. He couldn't break off the engagement, since it wasn't up to him but rather his father and the head of the Zhu family.

In the end, Dai Mubai realized that if Zhu Zhuqing and Chen Xuanzhen really did have that kind of thing, he would have no choice but to accept the blame.

Within the territory of the Heavenly Dou Empire

At this moment, the culprit Chen Xuan was fast asleep in the carriage, completely unaware of everything, which indirectly caused the conflict between Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai.

Chen Yiyi ran to another carriage and rode in the same carriage as Zhu Zhuqing.

She felt that Chen Xuan was hiding a secret and that there must be some special relationship between him and Zhu Zhuqing that he didn't want to tell her, so she tried to find out indirectly.

And so, the three of them traveled to and from Tiandou City in two carriages.

Day and night were reversed. After a day and a night, the carriage traveled over mountains and valleys and finally entered the largest city of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

Chen Xuan woke up early, before even entering Tian Dou City, while Chen Yiyi and Zhu Zhuqing rode in the same carriage. Unfortunately, they didn't get any useful information along the way.

"Sister Zhuqing, what exactly is your relationship with my brother? Don't tell me you're just ordinary classmates, I don't believe it. And the way you two interact doesn't seem like it either, but it doesn't seem like a couple either. It's so strange." Chen Yiyi asked with a worried look. This was a question she had asked many times before.

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head, her attitude remaining indifferent, indicating that they were just good friends of the opposite sex. However, this time she added that Chen Xuan was a good person, a very good partner, loyal and righteous, and not someone who was afraid of death.

Chen Yiyi was speechless and wanted to roll her eyes. This kind of explanation was too official. Now that they were in Tiandou City, she had no choice but to give up and end this unpleasant chat.

After the conclusion of the All-Continent Soul Master Tournament, the teams that successfully qualified for the tournament in each region were secretly working hard to cultivate their soul power, engaging in one-on-one combat, one-on-two soul battles, and other training.

After the competition ends, there is only a one-month vacation before a new round of competitions begins.

Based on past experience, veteran teams have made some guesses that the competition format a month from now will likely be one-on-one singles duels.

The clever academy has been strengthening the team members' one-on-one combat skills during this period to prepare for future competitions.

Shrek Academy was unaware of the situation and continued with their regular training, focusing more on physical fitness and team cohesion.

Yu Xiaogang calls himself a master of theory, but there are some things he doesn't know. Not all knowledge can be found in books, and the All-Continent Soul Master Competition is an example of this.

While the Shrek Seven Devils were all cultivating, a student from the academy came to the backyard with a message.

"Senior Zhu Zhuqing is back!"

"Senior Dai, we have news about the person you asked us to keep an eye on. Senior Zhu Zhuqing and a guy are outside the college."
