Chapter 213: My Foolish Brother
After Yu Xiaogang left, Dai Mubai strolled alone on the wide streets of Spirit City.
The further he walked in, the straighter his originally slightly hunched back became, and even the way he looked at the surrounding pedestrians and buildings carried the arrogance of a superior inspecting his territory.
In his extremely self-justifying logic, since his teacher was about to rekindle his relationship with Pope Bibi Dong, he naturally became a direct subordinate of the Pope, a core figure in the Spirit Hall.
Who knew that in the future, relying on the pillow talk of that buzz cut teacher, there might even be a place for him, Dai Mubai, as the Saint of the Spirit Hall!
This was truly a future full of promise!
Just as Dai Mubai was in high Martial Souls, immersed in his dream of soon having the world in his grasp, a voice filled with deep-seated contempt suddenly sounded by his ear:
"Oh? Isn't this my foolish little brother?"
"Why are you wandering around Spirit City all alone like a stray dog?"
"Where is my pure and lovely sister-in-law? Why isn't she following around a good-for-nothing like you?"
"Tsk tsk, and look at your green hair... it's truly quite unique."
Although Dai Weisi had always stayed behind in the Star Luo Empire to Cultivate, his informants continuously sent news of Dai Mubai's scandals in the Heaven Dou Empire back to the capital.
This included the joke of this idiot going so far as to absorb a poison-attribute Soul Ring to please that extremely abstract Theoretical Master, turning himself into a spectacle with green hair, looking neither human nor ghost.
Moreover, not long ago, a spy lurking in the Star Luo Imperial Family sent back a top-secret message.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect intended to take Zhu Zhuqing into the Sect, cultivating her as the Dao Protector for the future Sect Master, Ning Rongrong!
Upon learning this news, Dai Weisi almost clapped his hands in approval!
The rules of the Star Luo Imperial Family were strict. Without the Martial Soul Fusion Skill Netherworld White Tiger with the Nether Cat, even if Dai Mubai managed to win the trial by some rotten luck, the Star Luo Emperor's throne would inevitably be out of his reach! Furthermore, the Star Luo Empire held absolute power and was most wary of a prince relying on external forces from another Sect to seize the legitimate succession.
Not to mention that the former Clear Sky Douluo was now riding on his chariot!
In this round, Dai Weisi could be said to have an Innate, unbeatable advantage!
Seeing that the person approaching was his foolish older brother, Dai Mubai's expression visibly darkened.
Mocking me, are you? Looking down on me, aren't you?
My foolish older brother, once my teacher becomes an honored guest of the Pope of the Spirit Hall, your good days will be over!
Seeing Dai Mubai being mocked so directly without flying into a useless rage like before, Dai Weisi was suddenly unsure of the other's true strength.
Could it be that this brat truly encountered some fortuitous encounter outside, felt his wings had hardened, and now dared to challenge him, the First Prince?
Just then, Zhu Zhuyun, who was beside him, sized up Dai Mubai from head to toe, seemingly sensing something.
As the owner of the Nether Cat Martial Soul, her perception was naturally sharper than ordinary people.
Zhu Zhuyun leaned close to Dai Weisi's ear and whispered something, causing the latter's expression to instantly become extremely dramatic.
"My foolish little brother," Dai Weisi sneered, "Your sister-in-law just told me that you actually used those crooked methods to pile your Soul Power up to the Soul King level? Could it be... this is the confidence you have to stand in front of me?"
In response, Dai Mubai not only failed to refute but also skillfully adopted the same arrogant expression as Yu Xiaogang, with his nostrils pointed toward the sky.
His gaze, tinged with a hint of evil fire, unscrupulously roamed over Zhu Zhuyun's full and fiery delicate body.
"Dai Weisi, your good days are numbered," Dai Mubai sneered mockingly, "When the time comes, I will definitely let those blind fools in the Empire know who the next Emperor truly suited to reign supreme is!"
With that, the green-haired fellow even shamelessly threw an extremely oily flirtatious glance at Zhu Zhuyun.
What was shocking was that when swept by his aggressive gaze, Zhu Zhuyun not only did not get angry but a faint blush even appeared on her cheek!
"Dai Mubai! You are courting death—!"
Dai Weisi instantly exploded in rage! What was the meaning of Dai Mubai's unrestrained, vulgar gaze?!
Flirting with his fiancée in front of him, the First Prince of Star Luo? Was he trying to give him a cuckold's hat? This was an utter disgrace, unforgivable!
"Without Zhu Zhuqing's assistance, you are nothing but a cripple!" Dai Weisi roared through gritted teeth, "When we get to the arena, this Prince will personally break your legs and cripple your Martial Soul, making you live humbly like a maggot in the gutter for the rest of your life!"
Hearing this, Dai Mubai was stunned for a moment, failing to grasp the meaning behind Dai Weisi's words.
Where was Zhu Zhuqing?
But after a moment's thought, even if he completely lost Zhu Zhuqing, what did it matter to him now, with half a foot already stepping into the upper echelons of the Spirit Hall? Compared to Zhu Zhuqing's perpetually cold, world-weary face, the charming and alluring sister-in-law before him clearly suited his taste better!
"My foolish older brother, why the rush?" Dai Mubai stepped forward, patted Dai Weisi heavily on the shoulder with extreme arrogance, and whispered close to his ear, "The 'good days' belonging to you later on are still long."
With that, he ignored the trembling Dai Weisi and turned to leave with extreme arrogance, leaving Dai Weisi raging uselessly on the spot.
"Weisi, don't stoop to his level..."
Zhu Zhuyun walked forward, intending to softly comfort her fiancé who was on the verge of a breakdown. However, Dai Weisi, still enraged, abruptly shook off her hand, glared at her with an extremely cold look, and then angrily walked alone toward the Star Luo Royal Academy's quarters.
As an extremely self-assured and controlling chauvinist, Dai Weisi firmly believed in one principle.
Flies don't bite seamless eggs!
Watching Dai Weisi's furious retreating back, Zhu Zhuyun, left behind, did not feel much sadness. Instead, she stood alone on the bustling street, sinking into extremely calm contemplation.
Undoubtedly, to a certain extent, she was extremely jealous of her sister Zhu Zhuqing, jealous that she had the courage to completely break free from the cruel shackles of fate in the Star Luo Empire by borrowing the power of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
But looking at it from another angle, the confidence and bizarre strength Dai Mubai displayed just now, hadn't that offered her, Zhu Zhuyun, another choice?
Her entire life's pursuit was merely to become the Empress of the Star Luo Empire, ensuring the prosperity of the Hell Zhu Family! As for whether Dai Weisi or Dai Mubai, who relied on unknown external forces to counterattack, ultimately sat on the Dragon Throne...
To her, what difference did it make?
