Douluo Continent: Reincarnated Dan Heng Drinks the Moon, Gu Yuena Pursues Him

Chapter 17 Disdain from Students' Parents

There was only one guest, a middle-aged man with short black hair, dressed elegantly, and with an extraordinary air about him.

He drank alone in his room, completely oblivious to the fact that it was someone else's yard.

Dan Heng saw him as soon as he entered and frowned slightly.

This person is not very polite; I don't like them.

However, the aura emanating from the other party was very similar to that of Zhu Zhuqing, suggesting they shared the same martial soul origin.

The Netherworld Cat, from the Zhu Family of Xingluo.

So, did Zhu Zhuqing's family come looking for her?

Dan Heng immediately guessed that if the other party could take Zhu Zhuqing away, he would have no objection.

As the Crown Princess of the Star Luo Empire, Zhu Zhuqing is a figure caught in a power struggle, a veritable collection of troubles.

Spending too much time with her will inevitably disrupt my peaceful life.

"You must be Zhu Qing's teacher, Mr. Dan Heng. I am Zhu Qing's father." Prince Zhu smiled slightly, his attitude casual. As one of the most elite nobles in the Star Luo Empire, he was more than capable of looking down on the vast majority of people in the world.

Although his subordinates reported that Danheng was quite strange.

But he didn't believe such an exaggerated description. Dan Heng must have some kind of illusion that could change the color and aura of the soul ring.

However, the number of spirit rings cannot be changed, so Dan Heng's cultivation level should only be that of a Spirit Emperor.

Dan Heng nodded slightly. "Let's just say she's learning from me here."

As he spoke, Danheng sat down opposite Prince Zhu.

Looking at the wine cup in Prince Zhu's hand, he raised an eyebrow slightly. Such exquisite wine vessels made of glass were not something his humble farmhouse could possess.

Prince Zhu noticed Dan Heng's gaze, glanced at the wine glass in his hand, and said with a smile, "I'm not used to drinking outside wine, and besides, it's not appropriate for me to do anything in your house."

"I was able to get in because the door wasn't closed, but I didn't touch anything."

Prince Zhu said earnestly.

He didn't deceive Dan Heng. After investigation, he concluded that Dan Heng was a Soul Emperor without ambition.

There's nothing worth further cooperation; all that's needed is to take the daughter away.

Dan Heng hummed in agreement, his aversion to Prince Zhu lessening slightly.

"Why did you come here?" Dan Heng asked bluntly.

Prince Zhu paused for a moment, seemingly considering his words. After a few seconds, he smiled and said, "Mr. Danheng, you should know about my daughter from the past few days. She is a very serious child."

Dan Heng nodded. Although Zhu Zhuqing lacked talent and comprehension, he was pleasantly surprised by her tenacity.

"She trains so diligently to improve her strength as quickly as possible, but she won't get what she wants from you, and she might even face some criticism. After all, she's still just a young girl."

Prince Zhu spoke gently, a smile appearing on his face as he mentioned Zhu Zhuqing.

"That's right," Danheng agreed.

Prince Zhu's smile deepened; he was very pleased that Danheng was cooperating with him like this.

"So, I want to take her away and let her go where she belongs. Staying here is a waste for her. Of course, I don't have a problem with Mr. Danheng, it's just that our situation is special..."

To convince Danheng, Prince Zhu deliberately released his soul ring.

Seven spirit rings rose from beneath his feet, yellow, purple, black, black, black—the best possible configuration of spirit rings.

He wanted to prove that Zhu Zhuqing didn't actually need the guidance of a Soul Emperor.

If children stay at home, educational resources will be even better!

Not to mention, there isn't even a simulated cultivation ground in Danheng.

Dan Heng nodded and said, "I understand, and I don't mind."

Prince Zhu stood up, his expression radiating the superiority of a nobleman, and smiled, "Very well, I'm relieved to have received Mr. Danheng's promise. If Mr. Danheng is willing to join our family..."

Dan Heng shook his head and refused.

Joining the Xingluo Zhu family would only make things more difficult for me.

Prince Zhu smiled. The Zhu family didn't really need a Soul Emperor. He didn't even explicitly state his own identity. The reason he did this was that he didn't think highly of Dan Heng.

From beginning to end, all he wanted was to take Zhu Zhuqing away and he didn't want to have any contact with Dan Heng.

"Then, what about my daughter?"

Prince Zhu walked to the door and asked one last question.

Dan Heng replied, "He went to the Star Dou Great Forest and should be back in the next couple of days."

Prince Zhu grunted in response, pushed open the door, and went outside. He didn't close the door, but instead took out a handkerchief to wipe his face, looking around with a hint of disgust in his eyes.

The youngest daughter is such a worry; instead of going to find Dai Mubai, she's wasting her time here.

Once we find Zhu Zhuqing, we must give her a few words of criticism.

Danheng looked at the spot where Prince Zhu had just sat down; it had been polished until it was almost shiny.

It seems that having Prince Zhu stay in his "humble abode" is also a difficult matter.

Hopefully, he can take Zhu Zhuqing away...

Danheng thought it didn't matter.

……

After leaving the courtyard, Prince Zhu arrived at the most prestigious hotel in the town and summoned a group of men in black. Faced with Dan Heng's elegance and poise, he transformed into a cold and stern figure.

"What kind of work are you doing? You were actually intimidated by a Soul Emperor?"

"Won't he show his Star Luo Empire identity? Does he dare to oppose you? You've made Zhu Qing waste a month here, can you afford to take responsibility?"

The thought of that humble residence filled Prince Zhu with disgust.

How could Zhu Zhuqing stay there?

The men in black all lowered their heads and remained silent, not daring to utter a sound.

Prince Zhu snorted coldly and ordered them to go outside and investigate when Gu Yuena and Zhu Zhuqing would return.

……

The outer edge of the Starry Sky Forest.

Gu Yuena did not take Zhu Zhuqing deeper into the area; they waited in an open space on the outskirts, with the carriage parked nearby.

The two women hadn't even prepared any equipment for spending the night.

Zhu Zhuqing had warned Gu Yuena, but she seemed unconcerned and retorted, "Do you intend to spend the night here? Your master's wife doesn't. We're leaving tonight. I miss your master!"

Gu Yuena makes no attempt to hide her feelings for Dan Heng.

Zhu Zhuqing blushed for her, but in the vast Star Dou Great Forest, the problem was not only hunting soul beasts and protecting their own safety, but also finding suitable soul beasts!

Soon, a rustling sound came from the outside.

Zhu Zhuqing knew that it was the sound of someone moving at high speed, hitting the leaves and weeds.

The next second, before she could warn Gu Yuena to be on guard, a dark figure suddenly rushed out.

He was a dignified man with black hair, a robust build, and an aura of dominance.

He was holding a black lynx in each hand, both of them barely alive.

"!!!" Even from a distance, Zhu Zhuqing could sense the immense power contained within the other party!

"Zhu Qing, that's the younger brother in the clan that Master's wife mentioned. Di Tian, ​​go and kill those two thousand-year-old soul beasts as your master wishes. I want to see if what my husband said is true."

Gu Yuena remained skeptical because Dan Heng's explanation was too outrageous.

Di Tian then said, "This is unprecedented, a wild idea..."

"You're not allowed to tell."

Gu Yuena interrupted him.
