Douluo Continent: From Blue Silver Grass to Nine-Leaf Sword Grass

Chapter 92 Dai Mubai's Unwillingness

On the way the three of them left, Dugu Yan looked back more than once.

Because of her martial soul a few years ago, she didn't have many friends, so she always genuinely cared about her friends.

Although she and Zhu Zhuqing did not spend much time together, Dugu Yan had come to regard Zhu Zhuqing as a friend because of the latter's more tragic fate and resilient character.

After hesitating for a moment, Dugu Yan finally couldn't help but look at Jiang Li and ask.

"Jiang Li, we can go help Zhu Qing, why..."

Seeing that Dugu Yan remained unchanged, Jiang Li sighed helplessly and interrupted her to explain.

"That's right, Zhu Zhuqing is indeed of good character, and we can try to help her. There are two reasons why we haven't intervened."

"First, you've seen his fiancé's martial soul too—the White Tiger martial soul, the inherited martial soul of the Star Luo royal family. I don't need to elaborate on the Star Luo Empire's training methods, you're not unaware of them."

Upon hearing the words "Star Luo Royal Family," even Dugu Yan fell silent.

She wasn't naive; she naturally knew that if the Spirit Hall hadn't intervened, given the strength of the Star Luo Empire they had witnessed over the years, the latter was qualified to directly annex the Heavenly Dou Empire. In fact, the current emperor of the Star Luo Empire was a Soul Douluo.

The trials that these two are subjected to are certainly ones that they cannot prevent.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Li continued to explain the most important point.

"Secondly, the truly crucial point is that Zhu Zhuqing has already tacitly agreed that she must face this test together with Dai Mubai. In her words, the worst outcome for the loser would be the loss of their martial spirit. Over the years, the ideas she has been exposed to have never led her to ask others for help. She only wants to face this test together with her fiancé. This kind of thinking is the hardest to change."

After they finished speaking, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling both lowered their heads, seemingly reluctant to see Zhu Zhuqing accept such a fate, while Jiang Li also felt somewhat helpless about it.

However, seeing the forlorn expressions on the two women's faces, Jiang Li still added a sentence.

"Of course, the time we spent with her may have changed her mind a little, but if she really wants to ask us for help, it may have to wait until just before that happens, and only after Zhu Zhuqing has completely given up on Dai Mubai."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling both raised their heads. Dugu Yan, in particular, looked at Jiang Li with a somewhat incredulous gaze and couldn't help but murmur to herself.

"No way? We caught him like that in the street, and Zhuqing still won't give up?"

Jiang Li simply shook his head slightly. You should know that in the original work, Zhu Zhuqing's cold attitude towards Dai Mubai at the beginning...

She must have heard of the latter's reputation for womanizing, but in reality, although Zhu Zhuqing initially ignored Dai Mubai, she never left Shrek Academy, which speaks volumes.

Although the appearance of Jiang Li and the other two changed many things, it would not be easy to make Zhu Zhuqing completely give up on Dai Mubai.

The three remained silent for a long time afterward because of this topic, but Jiang Li broke the somewhat dead silence after speaking.

"Yanyan, it's not far from Karl City. We can rest for a couple of days and then go there for a visit."

After hearing Jiang Li mention Karl City, Dugu Yan also began to get along with Ye Lingling with great interest.

On the other side, after seeing that the three had left, Zhu Zhuqing felt a little guilty. However, in her opinion, Dai Mubai was indeed a scumbag in terms of character, but his strength was not bad.

After some encouragement, she might be inspired. Although Jiang Li had spoken up before, Zhu Zhuqing never considered asking him for help.

After Zhu Zhuqing left, Dai Mubai, who had been unconscious on the ground, slowly woke up.

Looking at his injuries and glancing at his face, which looked like a pig's head from the puddle on the ground, Dai Mubai couldn't help but let out a few helpless roars before feeling worried.

Don't misunderstand, what Dai Mubai is worried about right now is not anything else, but what Zhu Zhuqing will think when she sees him like this.

If he were persuaded by his own words and went to find the man behind Dugu Yan, wouldn't he be wearing a green hat?

This was absolutely unacceptable to him.

Fortunately, the next day, when Dai Mubai arrived at Shrek Academy's admissions office with trepidation, he saw Zhu Zhuqing again in the queue.

The anxiety that had been hanging over me can finally be put down.

However, Dai Mubai did not linger for long, after all, his face, which had been beaten up like a pig's head, was really hard to look at.

After another day, Tang San, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others enrolled in Shrek Academy.

During this period, Dai Mubai also took the initiative to go to Zhu Zhuqing, but he only got one result.

"I came here only to become stronger."

These words were tantamount to openly saying that he didn't want to have much contact with him, which left Dai Mubai with nowhere to vent his anger.

At least Zhu Zhuqing came here, which in his eyes was giving him a chance.

However, Dai Mubai couldn't suppress the anger he had been suffering during this time, and with Zhu Zhuqing there, he couldn't go to a place of pleasure to vent his anger.

After much deliberation, Dai Mubai ultimately blamed the entire situation on Jiang Li and his two companions.

After all, if it weren't for Jiang Li, he wouldn't have been caught in the act, said those unmotivated things, and been beaten up.

After some thought, Dai Mubai privately approached Tang San and Xiao Wu and couldn't help but speak up.

"Tang San, look, now that you've enrolled at Shrek Academy, we're practically brothers. I was ambushed by someone before, could you help me get revenge?"

Upon hearing this, Tang San couldn't help but frown slightly. Although he and Dai Mubai had become friends after a fight, and were currently in the same academy.

But he wasn't stupid. Anyone who could injure Dai Mubai must be at least at the Soul Master level.

He is currently only level 29, making this battle quite dangerous.

But Xiao Wu, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but light up her eyes after hearing this. For her, helping people get revenge was the thing she liked the most, so she looked at Dai Mubai and made a request.

"I can help you, but you have to call me Sister Xiaowu."

Although this request was somewhat embarrassing for Dai Mubai, he knew that only Xiao Wu could persuade Tang San.

So he called out after all, and after Xiao Wu had satisfied her craving for being the boss, she came to Tang San's side and started to act cute.

Faced with this double pressure, Tang San could only express his helplessness in the end.

"Alright, but if they're willing to apologize, we'd better resolve this matter peacefully, okay?"

Dai Mubai outwardly agreed to this explanation but inwardly scoffed. As for why he approached Tang San, it was naturally because he was interested in the other's hidden weapons.

It should be noted that yesterday, when the opponent used hidden weapons, they were able to force a seven-ring Soul Saint to use his fifth Soul Skill. Dai Mubai believed that Tang San could definitely help him get revenge.

On the day they were preparing to get revenge, Ma Hongjun, after learning the news, shamelessly planned to follow along, while Dai Mubai said he didn't care.

So, on the day Jiang Li and the other two left Soto City, a strange emotion flickered in Jiang Li's eyes as he sat in the carriage, and he couldn't help but think to himself.

"As expected, it's really difficult to get rid of these shitty guys so easily..."
