Douluo Continent: Ning Rongrong? Even a dog wouldn't chase her.

"What kind of hellish place is this?" Ye Zhi Qiu frowned and looked up at Gu Yi on the throne, asking.

"This is my territory... never mind, I'm too lazy to explain. I'd better get rid of you as soon as possible and have some food." Gu Yi leaned lazily on the throne, his eyes filled with weariness as he looked at Ye Zhi Qiu.

To be honest, he shouldn't have intervened, nor...

He wanted to fight, but he couldn't just cower in the back.

For the sake of his stomach, and to end this farce as soon as possible, he had no choice but to wrong Ye Zhi Qiu.

But the other party didn't even look at Gu Yi. He simply assumed a fighting stance, snorted coldly, and said, "Hmph! How arrogant! Anyway, as long as I defeat you, this space will naturally disappear."

"Mysterious Water Frozen!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a black light, as smooth as flowing water, rushed towards Gu Yi. It carried a chilling aura and seemed to want to finish Gu Yi off in one move.

"Turtle saliva? How disgusting." Gu Yi complained with extreme disgust, then waved his right hand, and a shield made entirely of bones blocked the attack.

"It's my turn, Bone Dragon."

Gu Yi was truly hungry. Like Ye Zhi Qiu, he also wanted to finish the battle quickly. Without hesitation, he summoned a bone dragon that was nearly a hundred feet long and aimed directly at Ye Zhi Qiu's position, stomping down on it.

Ye Zhi Qiu is not a speed-type Soul Master, so he cannot dodge. Furthermore, because most of his Soul Power is suppressed by the domain, he does not have much Soul Power available for defense.

"Black Tortoise Protects Me!"

But seeing that the giant foot was about to step on him, he had no choice but to use his soul skill to defend himself.

Two thick green armors appeared around his body, and he himself tucked his head into the shell.

"Oh!"

The bone dragon stomped down, and the terrifying impact slammed into the green armor, shattering it into pieces with just one stomp.

It's not over yet!

One kick isn't enough? Then two! If that's still not enough? Then keep adding more! Until there's enough!

"I want to see just how tough your Xuan Turtle Martial Soul really is!" Gu Yi said curiously. With just a thought, several skeletal arms crawled out from the pile of bones and fixed Ye Zhi Qiu's body.

“Step.” Gu Yi said in a deep voice again.

As he finished speaking, the bone dragon's right foot slammed down again, heading straight for Ye Zhi Qiu.

"Black Tortoise Protects Me!"

Helpless, Ye Zhi Qiu had no choice but to use his first soul skill again to protect himself. This kid was too strange. This space was like his home ground, and he had no chance to resist at all!

"Oh!"

As before, Ye Zhi Qiu's green armor shattered again, and the terrifying impact blasted through the tortoise shell and struck Ye Zhi Qiu's body.

"Ah!" Ye Zhi Qiu cried out in pain. Just now, he felt as if a huge rock had hit his chest.

"Again!" Gu Yi's eyes gleamed with a crimson light, and a strange smile crept onto his lips, as if he were extremely pleased.

"No!" Ye Zhi Qiu shouted in panic.

The bone dragon's power was truly terrifying. He had to use a large amount of soul power to defend against each attack, and at this moment, he didn't have much soul power left to use.

But Gu Yi wouldn't pay him any attention at this moment.

Under Ye Zhi Qiu's horrified gaze, the bone dragon's giant foot slammed down once more!

"Oh!"

Another loud bang rang out, and Ye Zhi Qiu's figure was completely blasted into the pile of bones. At this moment, his martial spirit had dissipated, and he had lost consciousness.

"You're already dizzy? I thought you could hold on a little longer. What a letdown."

Gu Yi looked at Ye Zhi Qiu, who was lying unconscious and disheveled amidst the pile of bones, and instantly lost interest. He waved his right hand, and the entire space began to slowly dissipate.

The next moment, the two figures reappeared in the inn.

Gu Yi stood in front of everyone, while Ye Zhi Qiu lay on the ground, his chest caved in, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and stars flashing in his eyes.

"Teacher! Teacher, how are you? Teacher!"

Upon seeing Ye Zhi Qiu appear, the students from Canghui Academy immediately rushed over and frantically shook him, hoping to bring him back to his senses, but to no avail.

"Good lad, it's one thing to have a domain, but to be able to beat a Soul King like this, humph, saves me the trouble of taking action."

On the second floor of the inn, Zhao Wuji watched the events unfold with great interest, his interest in Gu Yi growing stronger.

In contrast to him, Dai Mubai downstairs thought differently. He looked coldly at Ye Zhi Qiu lying on the ground, feeling extremely disdainful.

"Soul King? You can't even handle a three-ring Soul Venerable? You're really trash!"

He originally thought he could teach Gu Yi a lesson and embarrass him in public, but he didn't expect it to turn out like this.

But it doesn't matter, everything will be over tomorrow!

Chapter 21 Foot Massage

"Ah! I'm so full, I'm finally alive again."

Ma Hongjun lay on the chair with his hands covering his stomach, looking satisfied. In front of him was a pile of food scraps.

After Gu Yi defeated Ye Zhi Qiu, the group from Cang Hui Academy behaved themselves and slipped back to their rooms without even eating.

No one disturbed them, and everyone sat at the table enjoying their meal.

Soon, all the food that had been ordered was eaten up by everyone.

"Alright, everyone's full, go back to sleep. We need to get up early tomorrow to travel." Dai Mubai stood up, looked at everyone, and reminded them before slowly walking upstairs.

He was now eagerly anticipating tomorrow, and he was absolutely certain that once they reached the Soul Beast Forest, Gu Yi would surely die at his hands!

“Yeah, Boss Dai is right. I’m full now, and I’m so sleepy.” Ma Hongjun also stood up and followed behind Dai Mubai.

"Then let's all go and rest, so we can be well-rested for tomorrow," Oscar suggested.

No one had any objections; they were all exhausted after a long day.

But just as everyone went upstairs to their rooms, Zhu Zhuqing, who was at the back, grabbed Gu Yi.

"Gu Yi, wait a minute."

Hearing the sound, Gu Yi stopped and turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing with a puzzled expression, asking, "What's wrong?"

Zhu Zhuqing didn't speak. Instead, she pulled him to the side of the corridor. After everyone had gone back to their rooms, she looked at Gu Yi shyly and asked, "Gu Yi, could you... rub my legs for me?"

"I've been traveling all day, and my legs are so sore."

After traveling all day, Zhu Zhuqing wanted to massage herself but it was inconvenient, so she pulled Gu Yi aside so as not to disturb her rest.

"Okay," Gu Yi replied. He looked around and asked, "Here?"

"Okay, let's stay here. I need to rest later." Zhu Zhuqing nodded, her face flushed.

Although she was a little shy, the thought of Gu Yi made her less resistant.

Without thinking much, Gu Yi picked up Zhu Zhuqing and placed her on the railing. He carefully took off her shoes and began to massage her.

Zhu Zhuqing's feet were small and soft. Gu Yi massaged them while moving upwards along her ankles. Some meridians in the calves are very effective in relieving fatigue.

"Hmm~ No! Gu Yi, where does it itch?" Zhu Zhuqing hummed softly, her face full of embarrassment. She grabbed Gu Yi's right hand, which was rubbing wildly, and whispered.

"It's okay, you'll feel better soon." Gu Yi looked at her sincerely, his eyes radiating pure innocence.

"Well... alright." Seeing his expression, Zhu Zhuqing didn't think much of it and let go of his hand.

But the next moment, the itching sensation stimulated her again, and Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face turned bright red as she tried her best to keep quiet.

Not long after, Gu Yi pressed an acupoint on her calf again, and at this moment, Zhu Zhuqing could no longer hold back.

"Ugh!" Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but cry out. She was panting heavily, and there were still some tears in her eyes.

"Gu Yi, no, it hurts there." She grabbed Gu Yi's right hand again and said softly.

At this moment, her pretty face seemed to be

It turned into a bright red apple, glistening and tempting.

"Then... I'll be gentler?" As he spoke, Gu Yi gradually reduced the force in his hands. His skillful technique made Zhu Zhuqing feel comfortable, and the fatigue she had felt from traveling earlier instantly disappeared.

After pressing for a while, Gu Yi slowly lowered Zhu Zhuqing's foot.

"Alright, you should feel much more relaxed now, right?" Gu Yi asked with a smile.

"Yes, I feel very comfortable now. Thank you, Gu Yi." Zhu Zhuqing nodded and smiled.

"Heh~ You're welcome. It's already very late, you should get some rest." Gu Yi looked up at the moon outside the railing and reminded him.

"Okay, then you should get some rest too." Zhu Zhuqing replied, then quickly kissed Gu Yi on the cheek before running into the room.

Gu Yi was taken aback, then smiled helplessly and turned back to his room.

But as soon as he opened the door, he saw Ma Hongjun and Oscar eavesdropping at the door, while Dai Mubai glared at him with a cold face.

"Are you eavesdropping?" Gu Yi asked helplessly, closing the door before walking to his bedside.

But as soon as they sat down, Oscar and Ma Hongjun immediately crowded around them.

"Hey~ Gu Yi, what exactly is your relationship with Zhu Zhuqing now? You two seem so close?" Oscar asked curiously.

“Just now… that’s how it was! Don’t you understand? Move aside! Let me ask!” Ma Hongjun looked at Oscar like he was an idiot, describing the scene with both hands.

Then, he shoved Oscar aside and excitedly looked at Gu Yi, asking, "Gu Yi, do you have any tips for pursuing this kind of goddess? Can you teach me?"

"Hmph! Instead of worrying about these things, you should think more about how long it will take you to reach level 30." Dai Mubai sneered, mocking him with disdain.

“Hey, Boss Dai, I’m not like you guys. I don’t have a face as handsome as yours. If I don’t learn a skill, how am I going to find a girlfriend in the future?” Ma Hongjun frowned and retorted.

"You!" Dai Mubai pointed at Ma Hongjun, then, still angry, he climbed onto the bed.

"Hmph! Gu Yi, don't let his appearance fool you. He was the most enthusiastic one eavesdropping earlier," Ma Hongjun said with a wicked grin, whispering in Gu Yi's ear.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yi finally understood why Dai Mubai was so angry.

He shook his head helplessly, then smiled and whispered in Ma Hongjun's ear, "You should focus on your cultivation now. If you don't find true love by level 60, I'll give you ten."

"Really?" Ma Hongjun's eyes lit up, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

"Hehe~ Of course." Gu Yi nodded helplessly and laughed.

Seeing this, Ma Hongjun went to sleep contentedly, while Oscar stood by the window, quietly admiring the starry sky outside, seemingly somewhat melancholy.
