The seven members of the Royal Fight Team left the Soto City Soul Arena.
Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others, who had won, were originally very happy.
However, Jian Jiu, as mentioned by Yu Tianheng, put a lot of pressure on them.
Ning Rongrong clicked her tongue, saying,
"Defeating Yu Tianheng with a single sword strike—this Jian Jiu is too terrifying."
Oscar glanced at Ning Rongrong, whose pretty face was full of awe, then lowered his head and said nothing.
Ma Hongjun scoffed.
"Who knows if Yu Tianheng's words are true or false."
"Even if it's true, I don't believe that so-called Jian Jiu can defeat Boss Dai and Third Brother."
Dai Mubai's lips curled up as he said,
"It's a pity that the Grandmaster's third phase of special training is about to begin."
"Otherwise, I would really like to go to Heaven Dou Imperial City and meet that so-called Jian Jiu."
Tang San smiled indifferently.
He didn't take the Jian Jiu in Yu Tianheng's mouth to heart.
With the Tang Sect's ultimate techniques and twin Spirits, he had no reason to fear anyone of his generation.
"Hey, Zhu Qing, where are you going?"
At this moment, Xiao Wu suddenly called out.
The Shrek members saw Zhu Zhuqing chasing after the seven members of the Royal Fight Team.
Looking at Zhu Zhuqing's graceful back,
a hint of gloom flashed in Dai Mubai's wicked eyes.
If Zhu Zhuqing had been willing to use the Spirit fusion skill—Netherworld White Tiger—with him today,
the Royal Fight Team would have lost even more decisively.
Instead, they had to rely on Yu Tianheng being injured to barely win.
As early as when Shrek Academy was recruiting students,
he had expressed his intention to pursue Zhu Zhuqing.
But after such a long time,
Zhu Zhuqing hadn't paid him any attention at all.
"What are you following us for?"
"Are you Shrek Seven Devils still chasing people to mock them?"
The seven members of the Royal Fight Team had a very poor impression of the Shrek Seven Devils.
So, upon seeing Zhu Zhuqing catch up, they didn't give her a good look.
"Don't misunderstand, I have no ill intentions."
Zhu Zhuqing clenched her fists.
Usually calm, she was so nervous at this moment that her words stumbled slightly.
"I... I want to ask you about Jian Jiu..."
"Are you... are you familiar with him?"
Yu Tianheng and the others exchanged glances, just about to say "not familiar."
But Dugu Yan nodded and said,
"Familiar, very familiar, we're like brothers."
"We even had dinner together before coming to Soto City."
Noticing a hint of doubt in Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes,
Dugu Yan twirled her highlighted purple hair with a slender finger and said with a smile,
"Jian Jiu, you know, always wears white, and his sword can bloom lotuses, both fast and sharp."
That's right!
It's definitely Li Dixian!
Zhu Zhuqing presented her personal wine pot to Dugu Yan, her beautiful eyes shining brightly as she said,
"Sister, please help me give this to Li... Jian Jiu."
"This is the fine wine I collected from Soto City, and please tell him..."
"I still remember my promise, and ask him not to forget it."
Yu Tianheng and the others looked at Zhu Zhuqing with a strange glint in their eyes.
There's some gossip here.
Who would have thought that the cold Jian Jiu would have such a beautiful confidante in Soto City?
"No problem."
Dugu Yan took the wine pot with an unchanging smile and waved at Zhu Zhuqing.
"I will definitely deliver your words and the wine."
"Then, little sister, we'll meet again if fate allows."
Watching the seven members of the Royal Fight Team gradually disappear into the distance,
Zhu Zhuqing returned alone to the inn where she was staying.
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong were actually waiting for her in the room.
"Hmph, tell us, Zhu Qing, where did you go?"
Xiao Wu pouted, displeased, "Do you even consider us sisters? You don't tell us anything."
Ning Rongrong snorted delicately, saying,
"Even if Zhu Qing doesn't say, I know!"
"The person she's always thinking about is in Heaven Dou Imperial City, isn't she asking the Royal Fight Team about him?"
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face flush red, yet still remaining silent,
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong exchanged glances and suddenly attacked Zhu Zhuqing's waist.
"Hehe, if you don't tell us, then don't blame us for being impolite!"
"Oh, stop it..."
After a short while,
Zhu Zhuqing, with a flushed face, straightened her messy hair and clothes.
"Alright, I'll tell you then."
"I found out about him; he is that Jian Jiu."
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes widened.
"Jian Jiu?!"
"The Jian Jiu who defeated Yu Tianheng with a single sword strike?!"
Hearing the astonishment in Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong's words,
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly felt honored.
"Mm."
Ning Rongrong quickly asked,
"Zhu Qing, is it true that he defeated Yu Tianheng with a single sword strike?"
Zhu Zhuqing said without hesitation,
"Of course, others can't, but he can do it."
Upon hearing this, a hint of envy quietly flashed in Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes.
Why was her good sister's romance so wonderful?
Unlike herself... Ning Rongrong could feel Oscar's affection.
But she simply didn't like him; she had no feelings for Oscar whatsoever.
Every time she saw Oscar, she would recall his lewd appearance selling sausages at the academy entrance.
There was no other way.
She had once met a young man as free and unrestrained as a clear breeze.
They had once drunk wine and composed poetry under the moon, and secretly pledged their lives to each other.
It was just a pity that the young man's Soul Power talent was too poor.
She had no choice but to reluctantly let go.
Xiao Wu tilted her head, looking confusedly at the sweet Zhu Zhuqing and the melancholic Ning Rongrong.
She didn't understand.
What was wrong with her two good sisters?
Heaven Dou Imperial City.
In the small courtyard,
Li Dixian leaned against the steps, raising his cup to the bright moon in the night sky.
"Hiccup~~~"
He let out a burp, feeling the exhilaration of the wine rolling down his throat, and suddenly sighed with a touch of autumn melancholy and spring sorrow.
"Golden goblet empty to the moon, where can I find the nectar?"
"The wine from the clear spring wine pot always gets tiresome; where can I find more flavorful fine wine?"
"My Wine Spirit still needs to evolve, my sword isn't sharp enough yet, sigh..."
Li Dixian rarely worried.
Well, perhaps for him now, the only things that could trouble him were his sword and wine.
Cup after cup... cup after cup... The wine aroma swirling around Li Dixian drifted away with the wind, no one knew where.
He just leaned against the steps and fell asleep.
And he had a strange dream.
Clouds surged with colorful rays of light.
Palatial clusters like glazed glass floated in the clouds.
A majestic figure stood in the divine hall, his short hair standing like silver blades, a scorching white flame suspended on his left shoulder, and a dark blue flame swirling around his right shoulder.
Black and red armor flowed with dark evil divine power, wriggling like liquid shadows.
It seemed something had piqued his interest, bringing a smile to his lips.
At this moment,
a gentle voice sounded.
"Ji Dong, what are you looking at?"
A peerlessly beautiful woman, enveloped in a sacred halo, walked gracefully, the hem of her skirt embroidered with golden lotus patterns trailing on the clouds, exuding a divine aura as warm as the morning light.
"Lie Yan, you've come."
Seeing the woman in the white dress, Ji Dong's evil divine power was purified, and only tender affection remained in his sharp brows and eyes.
"A young man in the lower realm is very interesting."
Lie Yan smiled and said,
"Have you found a successor for your Evil God divine position?"
"It's still too early to say."
"But Lie Yan, you know, compared to the Evil God,"
"I prefer others to call me..."
Ji Dong flipped his palm.
The clouds and mist within a radius of ten thousand li all gathered into his wine pot.
"God of Wine."
