As his fiancée, she had just been taken advantage of by Huo Yuhao, who even set so many rules for her. These were things Dai Huabin had never done; she truly felt sorry for him.
Moreover, she had been secretly enjoying it, she was truly a bad woman.
However, whether it's for Dai Huabin's sake or for the costs she's already incurred, there's no turning back.
"I--"
Zhu Lu tried to make an excuse and explain in a low voice, but Dai Huabin interrupted her directly.
"Stupid woman, I told you to leave the Soul Palace, how dare you come to him directly?" Dai Huabin cursed angrily. When he saw Zhu Lu's appearance, his eyes widened, and flames of anger seemed to burst forth from them.
Zhu Luqiao's face was flushed, her cheeks were glistening with tears, and there were still tears in the corners of her eyes, indicating that she had just been crying. Her eyes were downcast, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Knowing his fiancée as he does, he would never have shown such an expression if she had simply been beaten.
"You bastard, what did you do to Zhu Lu?" Dai Huabin rushed up to Zhu Lu and shouted at Huo Yuhao, his voice filled with rage.
"What did I do? Are you sure you want me to tell you?" Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow, a half-smile on his face.
"Bastard, I'll kill you today!"
Dai Huabin's expression was icy. As he spoke, his martial spirit had already possessed him, and three spirit rings, one yellow and one purple, emerged from beneath him. His once golden hair had turned black and white.
His hands underwent the most dramatic change, covered in white fur, with sharp, blade-like claws sprouting from his ten fingers, gleaming with a cold light.
In the blink of an eye, Dai Huabin leaped lightly, his sharp claws gleaming coldly as he slapped towards Huo Yuhao.
He had watched Huo Yuhao's matches before and knew that he mostly won by using illusions and mental strength. This time, he launched a sudden attack to see how Huo Yuhao would use his illusions and how he would dodge.
"No!" Zhu Lu shouted in panic, but this only made Dai Huabin's expression colder. He increased his speed and launched a swift attack straight for Huo Yuhao's head.
In his view, if Huo Yuhao didn't dodge this attack, he would be seriously injured, if not killed.
However, that was precisely his purpose.
Huo Yuhao's actions have already damaged his position in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, and even harmed the interests of the mansion. Coupled with Zhu Lu's unusual behavior today, this has further fueled his murderous intent. He is determined to make Huo Yuhao pay the price.
As for whether he will be punished for killing someone at Shrek Academy?
He's from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. Would the academy make things difficult for the White Tiger Duke's Mansion over a dead man? At most, he'll just receive some punishment.
Faced with the fierce attack, Huo Yuhao remained calm and composed. When the attack was about to reach him, he easily dodged it by turning his head.
With his current physical condition, such an attack is like an ant trying to shake a tree.
Dodging the attack, Huo Yuhao grabbed Dai Huabin's arm and slammed him to the ground with a loud thud, sending dust flying.
"Boring," Huo Yuhao said indifferently. He had to be careful not to use too much force when fighting Dai Huabin, lest he accidentally kill him.
Although it wouldn't matter if I killed him, that would be too boring.
Dai Huabin struggled to his feet from the dust, his clothes tattered, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Huo Yuhao with a horrified expression.
He didn't understand why Huo Yuhao was so strong. Wasn't he a spirit-type soul master? Why did he have such a strong physical body?
Zhu Lu saw the pitiful Dai Huabin and rushed over with a worried expression, about to reach out to help him, when she heard Huo Yuhao say calmly, "The rules."
Zhu Lu froze in place, standing there blankly, her heterochromatic eyes looking at Dai Huabin with worry.
Due to the rules, she could not have physical contact with Dai Huabin.
Dai Huabin looked puzzled. Rules? What rules?
What did they do behind his back?
Due to the severity of his injuries, Dai Huabin felt his head was heavy. Without time to think, he looked at Huo Yuhao with a wary expression.
Huo Yuhao maintained his smile, his tone completely calm as he said, "It seems you harbor a great grudge against me. You even tried to kill me just now. Tell me, how should I treat you?"
Huo Yuhao walked up to Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu and said softly, "This afternoon, Dai Huabin attacked me because he was dissatisfied with the Soul Hall. In order to protect myself, I was forced to use my mental power to turn him into an idiot."
What do you think of this approach?
His voice was soft, yet it sent chills down Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu's spines.
“You lowly commoner, how dare you treat me like this? I am the heir to the White Tiger Duke’s mansion, and the White Tiger Duke is my father. If you dare to treat me like this, the White Tiger Duke’s mansion will not let you off!” Dai Huabin said, his voice stern but his heart filled with fear.
Huo Yuhao smiled. What is this? A fantasy version of "My Dad is Li Gang"?
What a coincidence! My adoptive father is also the White Tiger Duke, and I happen to want to get rid of him too.
Huo Yuhao looked at Dai Huabin, who was trying to appear calm, and said softly, "You may not know this, but my teacher is the dean of the Soul Guidance Department of the academy. So, even if I accidentally turn you into an idiot after you attacked first, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion wouldn't dare to do anything to me."
Wasn't Dai Huabin going to talk about background? His beautiful master is no mere pretty face, and when it comes to protecting her own, she's a graduate of Shrek Academy. Shrek Academy is notoriously protective of its students.
As he spoke, Huo Yuhao's pink-gold spiritual eyes shone brightly, as if he were gathering a mental attack, which made Dai Huabin's face turn deathly pale.
"No!" Zhu Lu exclaimed, stepping in front of Dai Huabin, her heterochromatic eyes, one yellow and one blue, filled with pleading.
Seeing the main character appear, Huo Yuhao simulated the brilliance of his spiritual eyes to shine even brighter. "Zhu Lu, this has nothing to do with you. Get out of the way, or I can't guarantee I won't accidentally hurt you."
"I will not let you turn Hua Bin into an idiot, unless you turn me into an idiot too," Zhu Lu said stubbornly.
Dai Huabin looked at his fiancée blocking his way, a hint of tenderness appearing in his panicked eyes.

Chapter 196. Acting on Behalf of Heaven - Huo Yuhao
196.
Zhu Lu pleaded, "Palace Master, please spare Dai Huabin. We still have that game between us. If Dai Huabin becomes an idiot, then there's no point in continuing the game, is there?"
What game? Dai Huabin asked, puzzled, but he didn't suspect anything at the moment.
Zhu Lu was willing to become an idiot with him, how could she possibly betray him?
Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment, feigning hesitation, before finally saying:
"As you can see, Dai Huabin has murderous intent towards me, but I am not the type to raise a tiger to my own detriment."
"You want me to let him go? Why should I let him go? Or rather, what good would it do me to let him go?"
Upon hearing these familiar words, Zhu Lu understood immediately.
Just now, when she begged Huo Yuhao not to fire Dai Huabin, Huo Yuhao said the same thing.
Zhu Lu bit her lower lip lightly and asked in a trembling voice, "What do you want?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao smiled and canceled the simulated golden eye effect.
"Come here." Huo Yuhao beckoned.
Zhu Lu glanced back at Dai Huabin, then stood still, her back to him. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her heterochromatic eyes revealed a pleading look, as if they were speaking volumes.
Don't stay here, Dai Huabin is still here.
But what Huo Yuhao wanted was for Dai Huabin to be here. His eyes gleamed again, and he said calmly, "I gave you a chance."
Seeing this, Zhu Lu had no choice but to lower her head and walk up to Huo Yuhao.
"That's the right way to ask for help," Huo Yuhao said, gently stroking Zhu Lu's smooth face.
"Zhu Lu, come back! Don't let him threaten you!"
Seeing this scene, Dai Huabin's eyes were bloodshot. He endured the excruciating pain from his serious injuries and tried to possess his martial spirit again.
Huo Yuhao glanced at Dai Huabin, and a beam of silver light shot towards him, rendering him unable to move.
Zhu Lu turned around in alarm, while Huo Yuhao said calmly, "Don't worry, I only imprisoned him."
Zhu Lu breathed a slight sigh of relief after confirming that Dai Huabin was indeed unharmed, only staring wide-eyed at them.
"Now, shouldn't you pay the price for letting me go?" Huo Yuhao said softly.
Zhu Lu's expression hardened slightly. She glanced at Dai Huabin with a somber look in her eyes and whispered, "What do you want me to do?"
Dai Huabin glared at Zhu Lu, trying to stop her, but Zhu Lu remained unmoved.
Huo Yuhao gently pulled Zhu Lu close and whispered, "Don't worry, I'll erase Dai Huabin's memory in a bit. He'll only remember that he attacked me and then I knocked him unconscious."
Zhu Lu raised her head, her eyes regaining their light and revealing a hint of joy. If she could, she still didn't want Dai Huabin to know that she had done something to betray him.
Dai Huabin struggled even more fiercely.
Huo Yuhao continued, "According to our game rules, since Dai Huabin attacked me this time, can I make up another rule?"
Zhu Lu then realized this, glanced at Dai Huabin, and sighed softly, "What rules do you want to set?"
Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment, then reached into the girl's clothes, channeling his soul power and making practical use of spatial power.
Soon, Huo Yuhao pulled out a wet, close-fitting garment.
"This is the new rule. From now on, you are not allowed to wear it without my permission," Huo Yuhao said.
Zhu Lu felt a chill beneath her, and then saw that Huo Yuhao had produced some familiar undergarments in his hand.
Zhu Lu was stunned for a moment before realizing that these were her clothes.
The girl's cheeks flushed instantly, her fair skin as red as a peach blossom.
She snatched the clothes from Huo Yuhao's hand and stored them in her soul tool. She asked, embarrassed and annoyed, "How did you get it?"
She clearly didn't even lift her leg, yet her underwear ended up in his hands?
Huo Yuhao said softly, "It's just a small application of spatial power, spatial transfer, you know? Like this."
