Dai Mubai was, after all, a prince of the Star Luo Royal Family. How could he endure such humiliation when his fiancée ran off with a pretty boy?
Thinking of this, Dai Mubai, seething with rage, directly raised his right hand.
Instantly, a strong white light appeared in his palm. Dai Mubai dashed towards Lin Chen and Zhu Zhuqing. Clearly, the other party had made a fool of him, and even someone with the best temper couldn't accept such a thing. Enraged, Dai Mubai was determined to cripple that pretty boy today, no matter what.
...
On the bustling streets of Soto City, illuminated by bright lights, Lin Chen and Zhu Zhuqing walked hand-in-hand, slowly strolling along the wide thoroughfare.
"I knew Shrek Academy was bad before, but I never expected it to be this bad! Zhuqing, you've suffered these past few months!" Lin Chen stopped, gently stroking Zhu Zhuqing's youthful face as he spoke, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Lin Chen's feelings for Zhu Zhuqing were very special. In the original work, Zhu Zhuqing was the only person Lin Chen admired; she was independent, self-reliant, and beautiful...
It could be said that Zhu Zhuqing embodied a multitude of virtues. Of course, how could anyone be perfect? If Zhu Zhuqing had any flaws, it would probably be that she was a bit of a love-struck fool.
In the original work, Zhu Zhuqing came to Soto City alone for Dai Mubai, and a series of subsequent actions undoubtedly proved that Zhu Zhuqing was indeed a love-struck fool.
But Lin Chen thought about it carefully. The Zhu Zhuqing in the original work had no choice; given her background, seeking refuge with Dai Mubai was probably her only option!
Zhu Zhuqing was also trying to change her destiny through her own efforts, wasn't she?
Ever since Lin Chen arrived on the Douluo Continent, he had viewed the people and events of this World with a desire for revenge.
Originally, in Lin Chen's heart, Zhu Zhuqing was just a tool, a tool to deal with the Shrek Seven Devils.
Zhu Zhuqing's beauty was undeniable. If such a beauty appeared in the Full Magic World, Lin Chen would have pursued her regardless of the consequences long ago.
But before, Lin Chen had cruelly left her in Shrek. Didn't Lin Chen know that Zhu Zhuqing staying in Shrek had no benefits whatsoever?
No! He knew!
For Zhu Zhuqing, Shrek was undoubtedly a wolf's den: the Evil Fire Pheasant Ma Hongjun, the Hairy Sausage Oscar, the Evil Eye Lustful Tiger Dai Mubai, and the Path to Death Tang God King. Which of these people was simple? They all had their own schemes.
Knowing that Shrek was a trap, Lin Chen still left Zhu Zhuqing there! He wanted to use Zhu Zhuqing to carry out his revenge plan.
But after interacting with Zhu Zhuqing today, Lin Chen changed his mind. He found that he was starting to like this Little Cat, and Lin Chen didn't want Zhu Zhuqing to get involved in this feud.
Perhaps he truly felt Zhu Zhuqing's affection for him.
Cold on the outside, warm on the inside, the petite and feminine Zhu Zhuqing was very endearing. Who wouldn't like such a Little Cat?
Lin Chen admitted he was an animal driven by his lower body. Men are all like this; it's normal to make mistakes occasionally.
In the Douluo World, no one could threaten him anymore. Why would he need to use a woman who liked him?
"No... it's not bitter, it's all in the past!" Zhu Zhuqing said shyly.
Lin Chen's sudden action made Zhu Zhuqing blush profusely. Her body trembled slightly; she dared not make any movement, only staring痴痴地 at Lin Chen, a hint of spring overflowing in her beautiful starry eyes.
For a moment, the atmosphere was incredibly ambiguous. Zhu Zhuqing's little heart pounded faster and faster, her exquisite face turned crimson, and even her fair neck became slightly red.
"Lin Chen, you'll take me with you, right?" After a long pause, Zhu Zhuqing's crimson lips parted, asking for confirmation.
Zhu Zhuqing still remembered every detail of her time with Lin Chen. In these past few months, she often missed this man who haunted her dreams. Her greatest fear was that Lin Chen would leave her again, leaving her alone in that dirty Shrek Academy.
"Yes, don't worry, this time I'll definitely take you with me!" Lin Chen smiled slightly, his handsome face slowly leaning forward, but suddenly he stopped any further movement. Lin Chen's perception was extremely sharp, and the sudden spirit power fluctuations around him caught his attention.
Immediately after, Lin Chen heard a sound of rushing air and saw a blond man with a white light in his hand attacking them.
Lin Chen frowned slightly, instinctively wrapped his arm around Zhu Zhuqing's waist, and pulled her aside. A blue star map emerged beneath his feet, and the surrounding temperature plummeted.
Lin Chen raised his right hand, and a cold light instantly surged from his palm, heading directly towards the white light not far away.
"Boom..."
A huge roar erupted the moment the cold light and white light made contact.
The surrounding temperature sharply dropped to freezing point, and the furious Dai Mubai instantly froze there.
"How is this possible!"
Dai Mubai's astonished voice rang out, his face filled with disbelief.
Dai Mubai never expected the other party to possess such formidable strength; he was no mere pretty boy!
Ning Rongrong, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun also froze, their faces filled with disbelief.
The white light in Dai Mubai's palm was completely swallowed by the cold light.
"Clink..."
With a crisp sound, the cold light instantly froze Dai Mubai's palm. The extremely cold ghostly light continued to erode along Dai Mubai's palm, and in an instant, Dai Mubai's entire arm was completely encased in ice.
"Lin Chen, are you okay?" Zhu Zhuqing, having reacted, immediately asked with concern.
Lin Chen smiled slightly, shook his head, and said gently, "I'm fine. He should be the one who's not!"
Who knows where Dai Mubai got the courage to launch a sneak attack without knowing the other party's true strength? It was utterly ridiculous. It seemed that having been away from the struggles of the Star Luo Royal Family, Dai Mubai had lost his most basic sense of reverence.
The gap in strength between Lin Chen and Dai Mubai was like a chasm: one was a Super Douluo plus a Super Mage, while the other was merely a Spirit Elder.
Not to mention magic cultivation, just in terms of spirit power level, the two were separated by 60 ranks.
However, Lin Chen had held back. Facing Dai Mubai's sneak attack, Lin Chen only used ice-element primary magic.
Not only that, but Lin Chen also controlled the magic's power to its minimum.
Otherwise, Dai Mubai wouldn't have merely had one arm frozen.
"Ah..."
A loud scream suddenly rang out. Dai Mubai knelt on the ground, his curled body trembling incessantly, his sinister face filled with pain.
After controlling its power, the ice-element primary magic's effect was somewhat delayed. Dai Mubai's frozen arm had already turned purple.
