Chapter 277: Swords Drawn, Bows Taunt
In fact, they all knew very well in their hearts that being born into such a family meant only struggle, no family affection.
The victor lives, the defeated dies, no matter who it is.
Family affection? That cold family had no such thing at all. Everything they did was just to seek benefits for the family, willing to sacrifice everyone’s lives.
“Dead girl, you still dare to talk back! What damn Shrek Academy, is that all they taught you?
Disrespectful to elders, ignorant of etiquette, simply losing the face of our family…”
Zhu Zhuyun flew into a rage out of humiliation and was about to strike.
Before that slap could land, suddenly a person appeared beside Zhu Zhuqing and easily caught it.
That person was none other than Ling Mo.
He walked up from behind, his left hand naturally pulling Zhu Zhuqing into his arms, his right hand lightly raised to directly block Zhu Zhuyun’s hand.
“My Shrek Academy isn’t for you to point fingers here.
What? Bullying my Shrek for having no one?
Ling Mo pushed Zhu Zhuyun back. If not for her being Zhu Zhuqing’s sister, Ling Mo really wanted to slap her to death.
Daring to strike Zhu Zhuqing? That was challenging Ling Mo’s bottom line.
“Kid, who are you? How dare you intervene in our affairs?”
Ling Mo’s appearance broke the original tranquility. Davis caught the pushed-back Zhu Zhuyun while furiously saying.
Their gazes exchanged glances, and his soul involuntarily trembled, feeling as if stared at by the god of death.
“Who am I? Do I need to tell you? What qualification do you have to point fingers in front of me, just because of your Star Luo Empire?
Even if your father were here, he wouldn’t dare bare his teeth at me. What thing are you?”
Ling Mo coldly shouted. If not for the tournament rules prohibiting infighting among Soul Master teams, Ling Mo would have acted directly.
If he acted now, it would undoubtedly mean Shrek Academy withdrawing.
One must know, Spirit Hall was currently targeting him. Others acting could be overlooked with one eye open and one closed, but if he acted, they would definitely be the first eliminated.
Davis’s gaze was icy cold as he carefully sized up Ling Mo. He didn’t know if Ling Mo was young and arrogant or ignorant, daring to say such disrespectful words.
Not even putting Star Luo Empire in his eyes! Either he had the confidence to fear no Star Luo Empire, or he was utterly stupid.
His gaze scanned back and forth, and he discovered Ling Mo was actually holding Zhu Zhuqing’s waist. Compared to Dai Mubai, he and Zhu Zhuqing seemed more like a couple.
What was going on?
Davis’s gaze turned to Dai Mubai and found he had no reaction, allowing Ling Mo to hold Zhu Zhuqing.
White Tiger family, every prince’s re-emergence came with a marriage, allied with the Star Luo noble Zhu family.
And Dai Mubai’s fiancée was Zhu Zhuqing, but looking at the current situation, why did Dai Mubai show no indication at all?
“Dai Mubai! You’re really a waste, even your own woman was snatched away. What’s the point of living?”
After thinking for a long time, Davis finally figured it out, and he was very happy.
Because… the originally life-and-death situation had turned into his unilateral victory.
Dai Mubai losing Zhu Zhuqing meant he lost the ability to contend with him.
Without Martial Soul Fusion, what did he have to fight him with? Compete on appearance value?
From the moment Zhu Zhuqing chose to be with Ling Mo, it already foreshadowed that Dai Mubai was surely doomed.
“Whether it’s meaningful or not isn’t up to you! Zhu Qing has the right to choose her own destiny. She is a person, not a tool.
She has her own thoughts, not a sacrifice for so-called imperial power.
Davis, you will pay the price for your ignorance. Don’t think that without Zhu Qing, I can’t do anything to you!
Just wait, the battle between us is far from over…”
Dai Mubai’s words not only shocked Davis but even surprised Ling Mo.
“This guy… I originally thought he was a coward, but unexpectedly at such a time, he’s still quite tough!
So, where does his confidence come from? Could it be Shui Yue’er?”
Ling Mo couldn’t help but guess. Without Zhu Zhuqing, he also lost Martial Soul Fusion. Davis was originally a few years older than him, so his Soul Power was naturally higher.
Under such a gap, it was undoubtedly a death sentence for him. If Zhu Zhuqing were willing to help him, perhaps he still had an opportunity.
Hearing him say that, Ling Mo even felt a bit that he had gone too far.
Unknowingly pushing him to a dead end, with no help at all—that desolate and helpless feeling, Zhu Zhuqing must have deeply experienced it.
“Looks like I still need to help this kid. If he just dies like this, I’ll always feel uneasy…”
After thinking, Ling Mo still decided to help Dai Mubai, as for how?
Very simple—with Ling Mo’s current resources, in five years’ time, he could completely craft Dai Mubai into a true strong expert.
This could also count as a form of compensation.
Moreover, he was now together with Shui Yue’er. Earlier, Shui Bing’er had told Ling Mo that recently Shui Yue’er was cultivating extremely frantically, so it seemed she had already prepared to bear this battle together with Dai Mubai.
Helping Dai Mubai wasn’t difficult, but… Zhu Zhuqing’s matter was far from over.
White Tiger Empire wouldn’t tolerate the existence of someone who betrayed White Tiger Empire. Zhu Zhuqing choosing Ling Mo undoubtedly betrayed it.
Therefore, there would definitely be a retaliation targeting him next.
On the contrary, Dai Mubai had no issues. After all, he was a prince of White Tiger Empire; it was just changing to another person—the battle between them still existed.
“Kid, I really don’t know where you get the courage to talk to your boss like this!
I’m looking forward to seeing if you’re still so tough in a few years.
Without Martial Soul Fusion, what do you have to compete with me?”
Davis said disdainfully, never having put Dai Mubai in his eyes.
Zhu Zhuyun sneered mockingly, “Zhu Zhuqing ah Zhu Zhuqing, you’ve really disappointed me too much! You even did something so stupid.
Disrespectful to elders and lacking manners is one thing, but you even did something so rebellious.
You’re too selfish! For your own selfish desires, you pushed everyone to the forefront. Do you really think destiny is so easy to escape?”
Zhu Zhuqing listened with extreme anger, wanting to rush out several times, but was held back by Ling Mo, who kept comforting her.
She saw her sister’s sarcastic smile, her heart extremely collapsing, yet powerless to retort.
Zhu Zhuyun was right; her choice was originally a very selfish act.
In family struggles, anyone involved would become a sacrifice in the struggle.
Her pulling Ling Mo in undoubtedly harmed him.
“Zhu Qing, don’t listen to her nonsense! Rest assured, a mere Star Luo Empire can’t take my life.”
Seeing her dejected expression, it deeply pierced Ling Mo’s heart, and a nameless anger burned within.
On the surface calmly comforting Zhu Zhuqing, in reality, Ling Mo had already developed killing intent.
“Zhu Zhuyun, right? For the sake of you being Zhu Qing’s sister, this time I won’t trouble you.
But… if you dare speak to Zhu Qing like this again in the future, don’t blame me for not holding back.
Nowadays, Zhu Qing is my Ghost Gate’s Sect Master’s Wife. If your Star Luo Empire is unconvinced, come find me…
But I must remind you, I’m not afraid of fighting, just afraid you can’t afford to fight…”
With a cold smile, Ling Mo directly retorted.
This sentence had a tremendous impact on Davis and Zhu Zhuyun.
“What? He’s Ghost Gate’s Sect Master?”
