Chapter 225

Kid, being a protector of flowers isn't so easy.

Tang San's eyes were already as sharp as an eagle's the moment Dai Mubai released his spirit ring.

He suddenly stepped forward, shielding Xiao Wu behind him, and activated his Xuan Tian Gong at full power to counteract the powerful pressure.

His left hand was quietly concealed within the wide sleeve of his robe, with several iron nails, gleaming with a ghostly light, already fastened between his fingers.

His right hand hung slightly down, with a faint, almost imperceptible wisp of pale blue soul power swirling around his fingertips—a sign that the Mysterious Jade Hand was about to unleash its power.

Xiao Wu was not to be outdone, her eyes burning with the same fierce fighting spirit.

The entire lobby of the Rose Hotel instantly turned into a giant powder keg, and a conflict between the three Soul Masters was about to erupt!
The air was so thick it was almost suffocating, with only the three spirit rings on Dai Mubai's body gleaming silently with a chilling aura.

But outside the vortex of all this, in the most inconspicuous corner.

Lin Xia stood there steadily, holding Zhu Zhuqing's slightly cool but no longer trembling hand.

With the fingertips of her other hand, she subtly adjusted the angle of the "button" inside her clothes—ensuring that Dai Mubai's martial spirit was attached to her, his spirit rings were released, and his arrogant, domineering, and rule-ignoring demeanor was fully displayed.

The faces of the twin sisters beside him, filled with excitement and anticipation, were captured with crystal clarity by the tiny lens of the soul tool.

Zhu Zhuqing's gaze was as cold as ice, fixed on Dai Mubai.

Watching him so recklessly unleash his Martial Soul pressure for a hotel room, just to show off in front of women, even bullying two obviously younger Soul Masters with his Soul Master strength, and seeing the adoring and excited looks in the eyes of the two alluring women beside him…

A mocking, icy smile curled at the corners of her lips.

Is this the third prince of the Star Luo Empire?
Is this her former fiancé in name only?
So foolish, so superficial, so arrogant, so bullying!

Even less ruthless than Davis, at least the latter knew how to be patient and calculating!
The last trace of complex emotions about the past vanished completely from Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, leaving only pure contempt and a sense of relief.

She no longer felt anger, only utter absurdity and ridiculousness.

Fortunately... fortunately she met Brother Lin Xia, fortunately she saw through him, and is about to completely get rid of this good-for-nothing who is all show and no substance!
Lin Xia clearly sensed the change in Zhu Zhuqing's emotions, from anger and coldness to utter contempt and disdain.

He understood that this scene would have a greater and more direct impact on Zhu Zhuqing than when she saw him with the twins outside the hotel!

This is simply tearing open Dai Mubai's most shameful side and exposing it to the light of day.

He tilted his head slightly and whispered in Zhu Zhuqing's ear in a voice only the two of them could hear, with a hint of cold amusement:

"Zhu Qing, see this clearly. This is the true nature of your 'ex' fiancé. Stupid, impulsive, arrogant, lecherous, disdainful of others... he seems to have all the taboos of an heir. If the Star Luo royal family really falls into the hands of someone like this... ha."

Lin Xia's words were brief, but the deeper meaning behind them was self-evident.

He paused for a moment, then subtly tapped the inside of his shirt with his finger to confirm that the image-recording soul tool was functioning perfectly.

"This 'gift'...I think it will be very interesting at the negotiating table in the future."

Zhu Zhuqing didn't speak, but simply tightened her grip on Lin Xia's hand. Her cold gaze swept over Dai Mubai, finally settling on Lin Xia's smooth and gentle profile. That disdain quickly transformed into unwavering determination and trust.

She nodded vigorously, everything understood without words.

In the arena, Dai Mubai's wicked eyes, filled with a cruel smile like a cat toying with a mouse, locked onto Tang San, who was on high alert, and Xiao Wu, who was furious. The pressure of the White Tiger Martial Soul was as imposing as a mountain, and the light of the three spirit rings was dazzling and cold.

"Kid, being a protector of flowers isn't so easy."

Dai Mubai's voice was like the scraping of cold metal. "If you regret it now, kneel down and kowtow, then take your sharp-tongued little girlfriend and get out of here right now. It's not too late."

He made no attempt to hide his interest in Xiao Wu and his greedy gaze.

Tang San's body was like a taut bowstring, his Xuan Tian Gong flowing rapidly through his meridians, and the hidden weapons under his sleeves were ready to be unleashed.

He didn't look at Dai Mubai again, but turned his head slightly to face Xiao Wu behind him. His voice was deep and firm, carrying an unquestionable determination.

"Xiao Wu, step back."

The moment the words fell, a purple glint flashed in Tang San's eyes—the Purple Demon Eye had been activated!
Although his aura was far inferior to that of Dai Mubai, who was at the Soul Venerable level, it was as solid as a rock, exuding an unyielding sharpness!

The conflict is about to erupt completely in the next second!
Lin Xia's camera has perfectly captured every detail, every conversation, and every expression.

This will be a sharp dagger capable of piercing the dignity of the Xingluo royal family and the stubborn rules of the Zhu family!
"Why?!"

Xiao Wu's voice was as clear as shattered glass, filled with deep grievance and anger at being slighted.

She stomped her foot suddenly, her full breasts heaving violently with anger, and her long scorpion braid almost lashed out at Tang San's face.

"Who do you think you are! I'll do it myself! I'm going to beat this arrogant bastard to a pulp, so badly that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him!"

She was stung by Tang San's protective gesture and enraged by his forceful stance in standing up for her.

In her view, this meant that Tang San did not believe in her strength and was depriving her of the right to fight!
However, to Xiao Wu's surprise, and to everyone's surprise, it happened.

Upon hearing Xiao Wu's protest, Tang San not only did not back down, but instead furrowed his brows, forming a deep frown.

He abruptly turned his head, giving Xiao Wu a stern look, his gaze carrying an unquestionable command and a hint of... almost obsessive desire for control.

His voice suddenly rose, carrying a deliberately forceful "masculinity."

"This is a matter between men! You just watch from the sidelines!"

These words were like a thunderclap, not only stunning Xiao Wu instantly, but also making Lin Xia and Zhu Zhuqing in the corner feel a strong sense of absurdity rush to their heads!

Lin Xia's lips twitched uncontrollably, and she unconsciously tightened her grip on Zhu Zhuqing's hand.

What kind of outdated and cheesy lines are these?
What era are we living in that we're still playing this game?

What kind of melodramatic drama did he think he was acting in?

Lin Xia didn't even know how to complain!

A rare, indescribable expression appeared on Zhu Zhuqing's usually aloof face, as if she had swallowed a fly but was determined to maintain her elegance.

Her cat-like eyes glanced at Xiao Wu, who stood frozen in place, seemingly intimidated by Tang San's imposing presence. The absurdity in her eyes was almost overflowing, and she responded softly.

"Ugh... How awkward. That girl actually... stopped moving? How is that even possible?"

She simply couldn't understand Xiao Wu's reaction. (End of Chapter)
