Douluo Continent: I Have No Thieves Under Heaven, the Explosive King Returns

Chapter 119 Feelings heat up
Sunlight streamed through the window lattice, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow on the floor.

"Uh……"

A low, hoarse groan escaped Tianxia Wuzei's throat as his consciousness slowly receded from its daze.

His memory of yesterday was still hazy. He subconsciously groped around on the bed, and his fingertips suddenly touched a soft, warm skin.

"Hmm?" Her hand unconsciously clenched. "There's something strange on my bed?"

"Hmm~"

Before he could react, a soft, seductive moan suddenly reached his ears.

The thief froze, then suddenly opened his eyes.

What came into view was not the familiar ceiling, but a stunningly beautiful face right up close.

Zhu Zhuqing lay on her side by the bed, her delicate jawline bathed in a pale golden halo, her long eyelashes casting delicate shadows on her eyelids like butterfly wings.

Her long eyelashes fluttered gently like butterfly wings, and her breathing was even and shallow.

With even breathing, the girl's brows relaxed, her cherry lips slightly pursed, and she slept more peacefully than ever before.

A strand of jet-black hair slipped from between her brows, brushing against her cheeks, which were flushed with a healthy rosy glow. The fine downy hairs on the tip of her nose were faintly visible in the sunlight.

The thief's gaze followed the rise and fall of the collarbone and finally realized where the softness in his palm came from.

"Zhu Qing?!"

His brain went blank for a moment, and fragments of last night's memories flooded back like a tide.

Ultimately, he came to a conclusion.

That means you went to the wrong room!

The thief's gaze unconsciously swept over the blanket covering him, then looked at Zhu Zhuqing's still neatly dressed clothes, and his tense nerves relaxed a little.

"Thank goodness." He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "I don't think I did anything out of line."

But the next second, he suddenly realized that his hand was still on the unsuspecting Zhu Zhuqing.

Her palms rose and fell gently with her even breathing, and her fingertips could even feel the temperature of her skin through her clothes.

Just then, Zhu Zhuqing's eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes.

Those cat-like eyes, which usually held a cool and aloof air, were now glistening with moisture as they woke up, making them appear exceptionally soft.

The moment their eyes met, time seemed to stand still.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were blank at first, but when she felt a warm touch on a certain part of her body, the tips of her ears turned bright red, as bright as dripping blood.

"Yeah, sorry!"

The thief suddenly pulled his hand back, but due to mental exhaustion, his body involuntarily slumped forward, and the two men's noses almost touched.

"You, you don't move!" His voice was a little hoarse as he quickly braced himself. "I didn't mean to."

He tried to explain, but his gaze was involuntarily drawn to Zhu Zhuqing's face so close to his.

The morning light gilded her skin, making the shyness and panic in her eyes all the more touching.

He could even smell the faint scent of gardenias emanating from her hair, mixed with the unique freshness of a young girl, making his heart beat faster involuntarily.

Zhu Zhuqing turned her face away, gently biting her lower lip with her pearly teeth.

After a long while, she puffed out her cheeks and muttered softly.

"Who...who let you break in in the middle of the night last night and sleep so soundly?" Her voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible. "I saw you just fall asleep, so I let you sleep in my room until dawn."

The last few words completely melted into the morning light, leaving only her reddened earlobes to betray her feelings.

Looking at Zhu Zhuqing, who had her head down, Wu Zetian's eyes flashed with a hint of guilt.

Although he and Zhu Zhuqing had confirmed their relationship six months ago, the two of them had no time to cultivate their feelings for each other.

Because they need to become stronger in order to prepare for the upcoming Continental Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academies.

He also understood that he had wronged the woman.

"Zhu Qing," came the deep, gentle voice of the man who had never been robbed, "thank you."

He stared at the girl before him, his gaze so deep it seemed to draw her in.

Zhu Zhuqing hurriedly looked away and was about to get up and run away when a warm, large hand grabbed her wrist.

She could clearly feel the warmth of his palm, and even hear his steady, powerful heartbeat. It felt as if his touch was striking her heart.

"You, you let go right now!" Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks were as red as ripe apples, even her ears were bright red. "What will it look like if others see this!"

Her tone carried a hint of reproach, but no real anger.

The thief chuckled and pulled the person into his arms with a slight effort.

He leaned close to her flushed earlobe, his breath hot: "You weren't like this last night."

"You!" Zhu Zhuqing's eyes widened suddenly. Remembering the secret kiss last night, she was so ashamed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

She abruptly pushed away Tianxia Wuzei, stood up from the bedside, straightened her slightly disheveled clothes, and spoke with a tremor in her voice, her back to Tianxia Wuzei.

"If you're still tired, then continue to rest. I'll go train now."

Before she could finish speaking, the girl had already rushed out the door, her footsteps filled with panic.

As the thief watched her flustered figure disappear, a triumphant smile crept onto Tianxiawuze's lips.

Sunlight streamed through the window and fell on the bed, warm and bright.

He stretched, feeling much more energetic and in a particularly good mood.

The thief clenched his fist, seemingly still savoring the lingering softness of the girl's skin.

"It seems like today will be a good start," he murmured to himself, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

With that, he no longer lingered in the girl's room, and slowly got up and walked towards the door.

Unfortunately, a damaged soul cannot be recovered simply by sleeping.

Even so, it is still easy for me to do it myself.

As Tianxia Wuzei leaned against the wall and walked out of Zhu Zhuqing's room, Ning Rongrong, who had just been startled by Zhu Zhuqing's sudden exit, witnessed this scene.

The little witch was taken aback at first, but when she saw his weak appearance as he leaned against the wall, her eyes widened instantly.

As a skilled driver, she immediately made some connections.

"what!"

A scream shattered the morning tranquility, and Ning Rongrong turned and sprinted towards the training ground.

"Wait!" Tianxia Wuze raised his hand to try and stop him, but he couldn't stop him in his current state. "No, it's not what you think!"

Now that he's been caught by that little devil Ning Rongrong, he's really in deep trouble.

Just then, a whoosh sounded beside me.

With a smile on his face, Lion Douluo slapped Tianxia Wuzei's shoulder twice with his broad hands.

"Kid, what are you explaining? It's just that you've gone from a boy to a man. It's something you'll have to go through sooner or later, so what's there to be shy about!"

Luckily, Wu Zetian was physically strong enough, otherwise he would have been slapped to the ground by Lion Douluo.

He rolled his eyes, knowing that no matter how he explained, it would be useless.

On the contrary, this can be used as an excuse to cover up his current state.

"Think what you want," Tianxia Wuzei's gaze regained its composure. "What choice did she make?"

"She" naturally refers to Ning Rongrong.

Back when she returned to Wuhun City, Tianxia Wuzei had arranged for Xiongshi Douluo to secretly monitor her every move.

The Lion Douluo put away his joking expression and said seriously, "This girl has been well trained by you. She hasn't leaked any information that is detrimental to the Spirit Hall. She only passed on information about Tang Hao's current situation."

"No Thieves Under Heaven" nodded slightly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

Ning Fengzhi had known about Tang Hao's capture by the Spirit Hall for a long time, and with his shrewdness, he must have already guessed Tang Hao's fate.

This intelligence is of no loss to the Spirit Hall; on the contrary, it can serve as a warning to Ning Fengzhi.

Suddenly remembering something, Lion Douluo reminded him, "By the way, last night that crazy woman Bibi Dong gave the championship reward to the Golden Generation. Don't let yourselves be caught off guard."

Is that really the case?
The thief had anticipated this, nodded, and then walked towards the training ground.

"Indeed, one must never be careless!"
