Douluo Continent: The Evil Tiger Subdues the Eight Desolations, and Marries Zhu Zhuqing

In her despair, she thought of Lin Ye.

The one who always liked to call her "Big Kitty" and always liked to tease her...

But in crucial moments, he is always the man who will stand in front of her without hesitation.

What would he do if he were here?

With his abilities and intelligence, he probably already has a solution by now.

Unfortunately... he's not here.

He should still be in the Papal Palace, receiving special training from His Holiness the Pope.

He had no idea that he was facing a life-or-death crisis.

well...

Dying here is much better than going back to the Star Luo Empire, marrying that good-for-nothing, and then being slowly tortured to death by my own sister.

But... I'm a little unwilling to accept it.

I haven't been able to see him again...

Zhu Zhuqing smiled bitterly.

Three seconds pass in the blink of an eye.

As the last layer of golden light enveloping her dissipated into the air...

Zhu Zhuqing slowly closed her eyes.

She has given up resisting.

She could feel that powerful wind, filled with the aura of death, rushing towards her head once again!

This time, nothing could protect her anymore.

Goodbye, Lin Ye.

Goodbye, world that gave me a moment of warmth.

However, just as Zhu Zhuqing was preparing to face death,

A furious shout filled with murderous intent suddenly rang out from the sky!

"You beast, stop right now!"

With that roar, crescent-shaped slashes, brimming with destructive power, instantly tore through the thick, bloody mist.

"First Soul Skill, Thirteen Slashes of the Evil God!"

That sound...

This soul skill...

Zhu Zhuqing, who was waiting to die with her eyes closed, suddenly trembled!

She suddenly opened her eyes, which had been dull and lifeless, and at that moment they were filled with disbelief!

It's him!

It's him!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions resounded through the bloody fog!

Those dozen or so dark purple crescent-shaped slashes, carrying an unparalleled aura of destruction, instantly enveloped the Gale Demon Leopard completely!

"roar--!"

A roar filled with pain and terror suddenly came from the center of the explosion!

Clearly, this sudden attack caused it a great loss!

The violent energy shockwave spread wildly in all directions, actually blowing away a significant portion of the bloody mist that shrouded the area!

Taking advantage of the opportunity, a figure instantly landed in front of Zhu Zhuqing.

He was tall and imposing, with short black hair that fluttered in the wind, but his handsome face was now filled with a cold killing intent!

The person who arrived was none other than Lin Ye!

Zhu Zhuqing stared blankly at the familiar yet imposing figure before her, her eyes instantly reddening.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but found that she couldn't utter a single word.

All those words were ultimately reduced to just two.

"Lin Ye..."

Her voice carried a hint of grievance, as well as an indescribable surprise.

Hearing the familiar voice behind him, Lin Ye's chilling killing intent subsided slightly.

He slowly turned around and looked at the girl, who was covered in wounds and whose pretty face was still streaked with tears.

All the anger instantly turned into deep heartache.

He strode up to Zhu Zhuqing, squatted down, and pulled her tightly into his arms.

"Big kitty, are you stupid?"

Lin Ye's voice was slightly hoarse, tinged with lingering fear.

"Who told you to come to this godforsaken place alone? Do you know how dangerous it is here?"

"What am I supposed to do if something happens to you?"

As he spoke, he hugged the girl in his arms even tighter, holding her close as if afraid she would disappear from his side again.

Feeling the warm and firm chest in his arms, and hearing his words filled with worry and reproach, Zhu Zhuqing could no longer hold back.

Her pent-up grievances and resentment erupted at this moment.

"Waaaaah..."

She buried her face in Lin Ye's arms and burst into tears.

She has been under a lot of pressure this past month.

She teetered on the brink of life and death every day, pushing herself to her limits relentlessly.

She dared not relax for a moment, because she knew that once she stopped, she would be left further and further behind by that man.

She was very tired and suffering, but she never showed it to anyone.

Because she knew that apart from this big bad guy, no one in the world would care about her.

Only now, held tightly in this man's arms, did she finally shed all her pretense.

Like a wronged child, she vented her emotions to the fullest.

Lin Ye didn't say anything, he just held her quietly, letting her tears soak his clothes.

He gently patted her back, as if comforting a frightened kitten.

After a long while, Zhu Zhuqing's crying gradually subsided.

She lifted her head from Lin Ye's embrace, her eyes red and swollen from crying, and looked at Lin Ye, asking with a slightly nasal tone:

"You...how did you get here?"

Lin Ye looked at her tearful appearance and felt both sorry for her and amused.

He reached out and gently wiped away the tears on her face, saying irritably:

"If I hadn't come soon, you silly cat, that beast would have eaten you!"

"I……"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing blushed and instinctively wanted to retort.

"I can handle this myself!"

"Face my ass!" Lin Ye interrupted her abruptly, glaring at her.

"That beast has been cultivating for nearly 40,000 years. What makes you, a Soul Venerable of level 30-something, think you can face it? Are you going to use your little paws to tickle it?"
