Prince Xue Xing left with a hearty laugh—but he left behind those few beauties.
The beauties all looked at Dan Heng, each wanting to go ho with him.
Naturally, Dan Heng refused and told them to leave on their own.
But the won said they were brought from the brothel and had no hos to return to.
"???"
Dan Heng's mouth twitched.
At that mont, he fully realized what kind of person Prince Xue Xing really was.
If he had genuinely ant to form a friendship, how could he have bought a group of brothel won and gifted them to soone?
Even if they were all fad courtesans, would any respectable man accept them?
"Such insolence!"
Qian Daoliu could no longer hold himself back when he heard this. He appeared with an angry shout.
Dan Heng looked toward Qian Daoliu and sighed. "Mr. Qian, may I trouble you with sothing? Please find a place for them. Don't let them co to harm."
Qian Daoliu imdiately agreed. "Anything for Mr. Dan Heng is also my business. Rest assured, I will make proper arrangents for them."
The won, seeing this scene, were not very disappointed.
Instead, they started throwing flirtatious glances at Qian Daoliu, completely unfazed by his imposing deanor.
"..." Qian Daoliu's expression instantly darkened.
Prince Xue Xing really was a disgrace!
If he let that man off the hook, he'd be going against his own conscience!
With a sharp shout, Qian Daoliu had them all dismissed.
Turning back to Dan Heng, he smiled once again. "Mr. Dan Heng, the Spirit Hall is currently mapping out the Star Dou Forest and other soul beast habitats. I suspect it won't be long before we locate the Red-Bearded Fire Dragon..."
Dan Heng was slightly surprised—Qian Daoliu really had taken his words to heart.
And he apparently still didn't know the extent of Dan Heng's true strength...
So what was his real aim?
"Thank you, but if it's for my sake, there's no need. I've already entrusted others with the task. We'll soon find the Fire Dragon's trail."
Dan Heng replied as a reminder.
Though the Spirit Hall covered the entire Douluo Continent, in terms of efficiency and capability, they were no match for Sea God Poseidon.
Qian Daoliu smiled lightly, not taking it to heart.
Whether or not they could help Dan Heng in the end, at least he had shown his sincerity!
Besides, he didn't believe any other power could move faster than the Spirit Hall!
...
Dan Heng and Zhu Zhuqing returned ho.
Along the way, he pondered how to rid himself of Prince Xue Xing's persistent ddling.
That man definitely harbored ill intent.
If things escalated, Dan Heng feared he might not be able to restrain himself from killing him.
And if he killed a prince of the empire, he could forget about living peacefully on the Douluo Continent.
"Teacher, is sothing bothering you?" Zhu Zhuqing asked with concern.
Following closely behind, Huo Wu also quickly spoke up, "Mr. Dan Heng, whatever it is, I can help you with it!"
Dan Heng snapped out of his thoughts and shook his head slightly. "It's nothing. Zhuqing, what's your current pressure level?"
"Just barely reached level 40..." Zhu Zhuqing answered with a touch of disappointnt.
Huo Wu twitched at the corner of her mouth. "I'm only level 26... comparing ourselves is really depressing..."
Dan Heng gave a light nod. "That's sufficient. Hunt a soul beast around 11,000 years old. Don't rely on the cultivation room anymore—it's no longer worth it."
"Yes, Teacher," Zhu Zhuqing replied.
Huo Wu couldn't help but show a trace of disappointnt. If Zhu Zhuqing stopped using the cultivation room, did that an she couldn't tag along anymore?
After experiencing the best cultivation thod in the world, how could she go back to ordinary training?
...
Once ho.
Dan Heng didn't head into the kitchen imdiately but called Bi Ji and Zi Ji over.
Lately, Zi Ji had started to revert to her old self—showing less respect toward Dan Heng.
"What is it, brother-in-law? I'm in the middle of sothing important!" Zi Ji grumbled.
Bi Ji asked warmly, "Brother-in-law, what do you need us to do?"
"For Zhuqing, I want you to—"
Before Dan Heng could finish speaking...
A sudden knock at the door.
Huo Wu quickly ran over to open it.
Outside stood Qian Renxue, disguised as "Xue Qinghe."
Huo Wu imdiately gasped, staring at Qian Renxue in disbelief.
She recognized her—after all, she had seen "Xue Qinghe" before.
Precisely because of this, she was so stunned.
The crown prince of the empire, coming to such a small courtyard?
Sure enough, Mr. Dan Heng truly was extraordinary!
Qian Renxue gave a faint smile and raised a finger to her lips to signal silence, then entered the courtyard.
"Mr. Dan Heng, I haven't visited lately. I apologize for that..."
As she spoke, she walked in completely—carrying half a slab of pork.
"!!!" Huo Wu was even more dumbfounded. You're a crown prince—must you be so down-to-earth?
Dan Heng nodded slightly toward her, as they were already sowhat familiar with each other.
He then turned and said, "Zi Ji, apply pressure to Zhuqing. Simulate soul beast might, starting with a 5,000-year beast."
"Got it!!!"
Zi Ji's eyes lit up imdiately. She practically rubbed her hands together, looking at Zhu Zhuqing with a mischievous glint.
Zhu Zhuqing snorted softly, ignoring Zi Ji, and walked to the center of the courtyard.
Huo Wu snapped back to her senses and quickly raised her hand. "Mr. Dan Heng, can I... can I try too?"
Dan Heng nodded slightly in agreent.
Qian Renxue placed the pork in the kitchen and smiled as she watched. "Looks like I arrived at just the right ti."
Zi Ji giggled, gave no warning, and instantly unleashed her draconic pressure.
The might of a 5,000-year dragon wasn't comparable to that of an average soul beast.
In just a mont—
Bang...!
Huo Wu's face turned pale, and she fell to the ground in a dazed "duck sit," trembling uncontrollably.
Under dragon pressure, all living beings couldn't help but feel fear.
She scrambled away in panic.
"So... so scary! What kind of pressure is that?!"
She looked toward Zhu Zhuqing in disbelief.
Zhu Zhuqing only swayed slightly and her face turned pale, but she didn't show much reaction.
"Still hanging in there? That's impressive. Then I'll increase it..."
Zi Ji's body began to emit a faint aura as she increased the pressure to that of an 8,000-year dragon!
Though it was aid solely at Zhu Zhuqing, everyone could feel Zi Ji's oppressive presence.
At the center of it all, Zhu Zhuqing felt it the most.
Especially when Zi Ji skipped straight to 8,000 years—that was just plain unfair!
Zhu Zhuqing groaned, her back arching, but she still stared defiantly at Zi Ji, her eyes full of resistance.
The rivalry between the two girls had now fully taken root.
"Still holding up? Then I'll keep going—"
Before Zi Ji could finish her sentence—
Dan Heng suddenly said, "That's enough."
Zi Ji pretended not to hear and tried to continue increasing the pressure.
Dan Heng looked at her with a slight frown.
"!!!" Zi Ji instantly felt a chill down her spine, rembering what happened to the Rakshasa God, and quickly withdrew the pressure.
She scurried over to Zhu Zhuqing, suddenly full of concern, acting like a loving sister.
Zhu Zhuqing ignored her, instead looking at Dan Heng with anticipation.
Dan Heng nodded. "That's good. I'll list a few suitable ten-thousand-year soul beasts for you."
Zhu Zhuqing's lips curled up in delight, though she didn't laugh aloud.
Dan Heng then led Qian Renxue into the kitchen and told her about the trouble with Prince Xue Xing.
Qian Renxue imdiately assured him, "Leave this matter to !"(End of Chapter)
