Douluo Continent: Ice Phoenix Rebuilds Her Skills and Enrolls in Tianshui Academy

Chapter 65 Big Brother, it's time to take your medicine.

Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement.

Her rigid worldview was violently challenged, and the world seemed to change drastically in an instant, giving rise to a faint longing in her heart.

She has always been the kind of person who acts on her words and has a very strong ability to execute.

Once the seed is planted, it will sprout quickly.

Ning Rongrong looked at Zhu Zhuqing with some worry, carefully considered her words, and comforted her:

"Zhuqing, don't be too sad..."

"Sad?" Zhu Zhuqing wiped away her tears and smiled.

Why should I be sad?

"I'm actually quite happy now. At least I can still have the unrealistic fantasy of transforming a piece of trash that has lost all its potential for recycling."

"It should be a good thing to let go of some illusions."

Really? But Zhu Qing, you don't want to have anything to do with Dai Mubai.

Do you think Dai Mubai will let you off so easily?

Didn't you see the way he looked at you? He already considers you his possession.

Xiao Wu hesitated, then decided it was better to avoid trouble and changed the subject:

"By the way, isn't that Chu Han the young shopkeeper we met in the Pill Pavilion the other day? He seemed quite amiable, but I didn't expect him to be so fierce when he hit people."

Ning Rongrong frowned:

"This time, the dean and his group are no match for them in a fight, they can't compete in terms of connections, and they can't even stand on the side of righteousness. It seems they can only suffer this loss in silence."

"By the way, why did Prince Xuexing suddenly seek out the Dean and the others?"

"And we don't know what they were whispering about, they even kicked us out, all so secretive..."

Xiao Wu chuckled:

"Don't worry, I saw that Master couldn't hide his smile when he heard that Prince Xuexing was coming. I guess he must have a way to rescue Boss Dai and Teacher Zhao."

The group chatted and strolled around for a while.

Because of such a big event at Shrek Academy, they didn't want to go out and have fun at this time, so they quickly returned to their dormitories.

Zhu Zhuqing then went to a secluded grove of trees.

She was agile and darted through the trees, quickly disappearing into the shadows.

Sitting cross-legged on the thick tree trunk, Zhu Zhuqing took out the Qingxin Pill and Tongluo Pill she had bought, swallowed both at the same time, and felt her mind become clear and a warm current surge through her body.

In an instant, the circulation of soul power within Zhu Zhuqing's body accelerated even further.

Prolonged overload of soul power would normally damage the meridians, but under the medicinal effect of the Meridian Clearing Pill, the meridians were protected by a force.

Given time, the meridians will not only not be damaged, but will be widened and even become more resilient.

Zhu Zhuqing was overjoyed.

However, under the influence of the Mind-Clearing Pill, her expression was neither joyful nor sorrowful.

……

Two days later.

Under pressure from Prince Xuexing, Qian Renxue had no choice but to order the release of Dai Mubai and Zhao Wuji.

As she entered the prison, a cold glint flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes.

He whispered to the Porcupine Douluo:

"If it weren't for the fact that too many princes have been killed in recent years, and Emperor Xueye has already made his lineage extinct, taking further underhanded measures would only cause harm and bring no benefit. I really wish I could kill Prince Xuexing as well."

However, Xue Xing is a difficult person to deal with.

As the younger brother of the Heavenly Dou Emperor, Prince Xuexing is a powerful prince with considerable military power, and he is extremely cautious in his travels.

Assassination is very difficult.

If her actions are discovered, Qian Renxue will be put on the defensive.

Fortunately, among all the princes, only the most useless Xue Beng remains. No matter how much Prince Xue Xing opposes Qian Renxue, he will have no choice but to submit to her when she inherits the throne.

"But Prince Xuexing has always been against me. He only does things for personal gain. Is there something special about Shrek Academy that made Xuexing put pressure on me?"

Qian Renxue was used to Prince Xuexing contradicting him. Keeping this old beast around would draw all those in the court who opposed him to his side.

When the time is right, on the eve of the uprising, we should simply wipe them all out at once.

However, Prince Snowstar is not the type to do the opposite of everything.

What are the deeper reasons behind this?

The prison was dimly lit. Qian Renxue frowned slightly; unable to understand, she simply stopped thinking about it.

"I need to give Chu Han an explanation."

Qian Renxue remained extremely resolute. Even when impeached by Prince Xuexing and many court elders, she showed no panic whatsoever.

She's always been the kind of person who won't give up until she gets what she wants.

She knew perfectly well that her purpose in capturing Dai Mubai and Zhao Wuji was simply to curry favor with Chu Han.

Now that she's being released, what does Chu Han think of her?

Qian Renxue's expression was icy, and she frowned as she said:

"Why hasn't my medicine been served yet?"

A moment later, a guard brought over the prepared medicinal porridge.

"Your Highness, the medicinal porridge is ready."

Qian Renxue nodded slightly, "The opponent has a Soul Venerable and a Soul Saint, so a small dose won't do."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, even a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast would have to..."

The rest of the sentence was left unsaid.

Qian Renxue said coldly:

"That's fine then. You may leave now, but don't tell anyone about this."

"Understood."

The guard clasped his hands in a fist salute and left.

Led by the Porcupine Douluo, Qian Renxue quickly arrived at the prison where Zhao Wuji and Dai Mubai were located.

The air was filled with a foul odor, and Qian Renxue had to use her soul power to seal her nostrils.

First, I went to see Dai Mubai.

He was suspended from an iron stake, with extremely heavy handcuffs and leg irons on his hands.

The prison guard splashed a basin of water on Dai Mubai's face.

Dai Mubai woke up groggily.

A gentle smile appeared on Qian Renxue's face.

It was as warm as sunshine, which made Dai Mubai pause in surprise.

"I'm sorry, Dai Mubai, right? I made a mistake this time. It was just a normal fight, but I mistakenly thought you were locked up in jail."

"I'm so sorry, I'll make it up to you..."

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai's forehead veins bulged.

A mistake? God knows how he got through these past few days!

"Compensation? Can the abuse I've suffered these past few days really be resolved with just a simple compensation?"

Qian Renxue's gaze was apologetic:

"I'm so sorry."

She glanced at the healing-type Soul Master beside her and frowned, saying:

"Why aren't you treating him yet?"

The healing-type Soul Master quickly used his Soul Skill, and a white light descended upon Dai Mubai, making him feel much more relaxed.

Dai Mubai snorted coldly.

What's the point of showing goodwill now? He's still in jail, waiting for him to get out.

A true man would not leave this grudge unavenged!

Qian Renxue bowed to Dai Mubai:

"Mr. Dai Mubai, it's all Qinghe's fault. Please drink this bowl of medicinal porridge and recover your strength."

"Let's discuss the compensation properly once you're feeling better, okay?"
