Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Truth Doctor, Son-in-Law of the Spirit Hall

Chapter 180 The Caged Bird

"I've finished too..."

Zhu Zhuqing's voice wasn't loud. When she spoke, none of the Xingluo royal family members reacted, except for Prince Zhu, who wore a relieved smile.

More people are looking this way.

Because the lights from the platform shone on Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing herself did not have the ability to fly, so a flying soul tool flew over from the high platform.

A soul-guided device resembling a flying saucer stopped in front of Zhu Zhuqing.

It was only then that the Star Luo royal family realized that Zhu Zhuqing had become the second person to complete the creation of a soul tool.

They all had their own guesses about what completing the soul tool meant.

Prince Xingluo immediately became serious and said in a deep voice, "Second Princess Consort, don't forget your identity. Don't do anything that would put the Xingluo royal family in a difficult position."

Zhu Zhuyun stared blankly at Zhu Zhuqing, her face full of astonishment.

She vaguely saw a caged bird returning to the free sky.

Zhu Zhuqing ignored the Star Luo Prince's threat and lightly leaped onto the flying saucer soul tool.

The next second, the UFO-shaped soul tool flew rapidly towards the high platform.

Zhu Zhuqing only left them with her back turned.

People nearby cheered excitedly when they saw that the second person to complete the soul tool was a little girl.

They were cheering for all humanity on the Douluo Continent.

Prince Xingluo's face was extremely ugly. He had already guessed Zhu Zhuqing's idea, which was nothing more than to use her status as a student of the Saint Master of Ladio to escape the fate she should bear.

He absolutely had to stop this behavior; it was tantamount to a betrayal of the Star Luo royal family.

He immediately looked at Prince Zhu and asked, "Prince Zhu, are you going to stand by and watch the Second Prince's wife do this?"

Prince Zhu said calmly, "How the Second Prince's Consort does is none of my business."

Prince Zhu was also filled with resentment, even though the Zhu family not only had its own kingdom, but also had daughters who became empresses for generations.

But as a father, he had to watch his two daughters kill each other, and then one of them was defeated, had her cultivation destroyed, and was exiled to the frontier to live out her life in misery.

He would rather not have this honor. Now that Zhu Zhuqing has hope of escaping her fate, he is overjoyed!

Prince Xingluo's face was extremely ugly. He gripped the armrest tightly, and with a "crack," the armrest was crushed in his hand.

"If the Second Prince's Consort dares to do that, she will be challenging the dignity of the Xingluo royal family, and she will receive the most severe punishment. We hope Prince Zhu can make a rational decision!"

Prince Xingluo threatened in a cold voice.

Prince Zhu remained silent, a faint smile on his face, seemingly proud of Zhu Zhuqing.

At that moment, Zhu Zhuyun suddenly realized something.

As she watched Zhu Zhuqing's retreating figure, a strange emotion welled up within her.

……

The UFO-shaped soul tool arrived at the high platform, and Zhu Zhuqing jumped down, making her figure visible to everyone.

She presented the soul tool she had made to Latio with both hands; it was a belt.

"This is a belt-shaped soul tool I made. Its core magic array is speed and lightness, which can increase the wearer's speed and make them faster..." Zhu Zhuqing said, looking nervously at Ladio.

Whether or not fate can be changed depends on a single sentence from the Holy Master Latio.

Ladio glanced at it and nodded, saying, "Not bad. It has reached the standard of a level three soul tool. You have an exceptional talent for soul tool manufacturing. It's already a mature product."

"If we want to improve it, we need to look at the materials and the direction of the stress distribution surface, for example, here..."

Ladio immediately began his commentary.

Zhu Zhuqing was overwhelmed with happiness. She had not only gained the approval of the Holy Master Ladio, but also received such high praise.

A soul tool that is nearing completion!

She completed this all by herself!

She walked ahead of so many people.

At that moment, tears streamed down Zhu Zhuqing's face—tears of joy and excitement.

Zhu Zhuqing choked up and said, "Thank you, thank you so much... Saint Master Ladio, I want to learn from you. From now on, I will only be your student. I don't want to be the princess consort of the Star Luo Empire, I..."

Zhu Zhuqing's voice was amplified, making it heard throughout the entire square.

An uproar erupted in the main square.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhuqing is actually the princess consort of the Star Luo Empire, and now she has to rely on the Holy Master Ladio to escape her fate.

Many of the people present understood her thoughts and supported her because of her contributions to the Soul Master world.

A princess consort of the Star Luo Empire may not make any contribution to the Soul Master world, but a Soul Master prodigy with exceptional talent can drive the development of Soul Guidance Devices in the Soul Master world.

The relative importance of each is obvious at a glance.

Ladio glanced calmly at Zhu Zhuqing, whose tearful eyes were fixed on him with unwavering determination.

Ladio nodded slightly and said, "You have your own freedom and can be sure of everything you want."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing immediately covered her face and burst into tears.

She finally got her chance after all her hardships.

It was because of a single sentence from Master Ladio that she found someone to rely on and no longer needed to worry about the shadow of the Star Luo Royal Family.

Just then, Prince Xingluo could no longer sit still, and he shouted loudly:

"Second Prince's Consort, are you going to betray the Star Luo Royal Family? Betray your own bloodline, betray your own responsibilities? Do you know the consequences of doing so? Don't think that just because you have a word from Saint Master Ladio, you can rest easy! You…"

Prince Xingluo hadn't finished speaking.

He then received angry stares from everyone.

They were already more inclined towards Zhu Zhuqing, and now Prince Xingluo dared to "slander" Saint Master Ladio right in front of them.

Then they won't be able to tolerate it!

Immediately, someone shouted angrily, "Is the Star Luo Royal Family so powerful? How dare they speak so arrogantly in this setting?! Fine, I'll also say this: if the Star Luo Royal Family dares to suppress the disciples of Saint Master Radio, then our Heavenly Dou Empire will absolutely not let this go!"

Prince Xuexing spoke with righteous indignation.

Immediately afterwards, people from all the Soul Master factions began to speak out, expressing their support for Zhu Zhuqing.

"That's right! In this day and age, you can't do whatever you want! If you dare to make things difficult for Master Ladio's students, I will absolutely not let the Star Luo Royal Family off the hook!"

"Me too! Who do they think they are? Daring to challenge Saint Latio?"

"The Star Luo royal family has really gotten too arrogant, daring to threaten Saint Master Ladio?"

"..."

Hearing the voices of the crowd, Prince Xingluo's face darkened; he hadn't expected such a strong backlash.

If he insists on targeting Zhu Zhuqing, he may be suppressed by almost all other forces on the mainland!

Zhu Zhuyun stared blankly at this scene, suddenly realizing how right Zhu Zhuqing was; she had truly broken free from her fate!
