Chapter 23 Zhu Zhuyun Resigns to Her Fate, Hu Liena's Unexpected Absorption of the Soul Ring.
The five-meter-long three-eyed demon fox was grabbed by the tail by Mu Changge and slammed repeatedly against the ground on either side.
The tremors from beneath her feet suggested the unfortunate soul beast was enduring unimaginable torture.
"He, I, this…"
Zhu Zhuyun was utterly shocked by Mu Changge's ferocity, her scalp tingling.
To brutally subdue a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast with such physical strength—even a Title Douluo might not be able to do that!
Was I just teaching this ruthless person a lesson?
I even considered keeping him as a kept man?
If I angered him…
For some reason, the three-eyed demon fox being slammed around transformed into herself in Zhu Zhuyun's eyes, being dragged by the tail and slammed until her face was bruised and swollen.
Only when the ground around Mu Changge became uneven and pitted did he throw the Three-Eyed Demon Fox in front of Hu Liena. The Three-Eyed Demon Fox, barely breathing, had all its bones broken and lay on the ground like a rag doll, clearly powerless to resist.
Zhu Zhuyun, also brought back to her senses by the noise, saw Mu Changge walking towards them and shrank back in fear, like a kitten that had done something wrong and was waiting for its master's punishment.
"Caught it, absorb the soul ring."
Hu Liena smiled sweetly and gave Mu Changge a light peck on the cheek.
"Thank you, Master."
Hu Liena approached the Three-Eyed Demon Fox, whose eyes had lost their luster, and took out a sharp dagger from her soul tool.
She remembered Bibi Dong teaching her that absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring not only required bearing the soul power of the ring and refusing to explode,
but also guarding one's mind and resisting the soul impact of the ten-thousand-year soul beast. A slight misstep could result in being dragged down with the ten-thousand-year soul beast in its final counterattack.
Therefore, one must be in peak condition to absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring.
Just as Hu Liena was taking deep breaths to prepare, Zhu Zhuyun spoke up hesitantly.
"This...Your Majesty?" Zhu Zhuyun trembled in fright when Mu Changge turned his gaze to her, but she tried her best to keep her voice from shaking too much. "I was rude just now, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Mu Changge looked at the uneasy Zhu Zhuyun with interest, especially her constantly shifting eyes, and asked, "So what do you want to say?"
Zhu Zhuyun took a deep breath and bowed. "Your Majesty must already know that Zhuyun is the future Empress of the Star Luo Empire. If you can let me leave, the Star Luo Empire will definitely make appropriate compensation for offending Your Majesty."
In Zhu Zhuyun's opinion, even if Mu Changge was a Title Douluo, he should at least give the Star Luo Empire some face, right?
Mu Changge took two steps forward, came to Hu Liena's side, and slapped the Three-Eyed Demon Fox, who was preparing to self-destruct in secret, across the face.
"No need for compensation." Hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun's face lit up with joy. Just as she was about to express her gratitude, Mu Changge said, "You drank my blood, and you even called me master. There's no way I'm letting you go."
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun wanted to cry. What kind of reason was this?
She should have known better than to be so cheeky and call Mu Changge master just because she thought it was funny.
And that drop of blood, could she just spit it out for him right now?
Although titled Douluo are very precious on the continent, you can't exchange a drop of blood for her, the future empress, can you?
Seeing the reluctance on Zhu Zhuyun's face, Mu Changge once again interrupted the Three-Eyed Demon Fox's self-destruction with a kick, and sensed the drop of blood in Zhu Zhuyun's body.
No, it should be said that the drop of blood transformed into energy and distributed throughout Zhu Zhuyun's body.
Zhu Zhuyun felt that tearing pain all over her body again, but this time it came and went quickly, disappearing in just an instant.
"Meow~"
This caught Zhu Zhuyun off guard, causing her body to tremble violently in pain, and she made a strange sound.
After interrupting the Three-Eyed Demon Fox's self-destruction once again, Mu Changge looked at Zhu Zhuyun with a smile in her eyes: "Do you understand? Whenever I want, I can make you feel a pain worse than death." "This...sigh~"
Finally understanding the pain she felt, Zhu Zhuyun sighed dejectedly.
It seemed she couldn't escape; the Empress's position was gone, and the scene of her dream as Empress, ruling the world, would never happen again.
"Alright, Your Majesty, I won't run away. Please be kind to me in the future."
"You should call me Master, like Nana does."
"Hmm~" Just now, with only the two of them present, and Zhu Zhuyun unaware of Mu Changge's strength, she could easily joke with him.
But now, not only was Hu Liena there, but Zhu Zhuqing was also beside her, looking at her with strange eyes. Zhu Zhuyun truly didn't have the nerve to be shameless. Don't
be fooled by how unrestrained Zhu Zhuyun appeared in front of Mu Changge; she was actually quite chaste. She had simply been bewitched by him earlier.
Now, being forced to call him "master," Zhu Zhuyun's face visibly flushed red. But she dared not disobey Mu Changge's command, so she could only stammer, "M...Master..."
Well, losing the power she so desperately desired, in exchange for someone she truly loved—and that person was a powerful "Title Douluo"—Zhu Zhuyun could barely accept it.
Mu Changge smiled, then shifted his gaze to Zhu Zhuqing. Needless to say, the little kitten knew what his look meant.
Unlike Zhu Zhuyun, who harbored feelings for Mu Changge, Zhu Zhuqing only felt fear towards him.
She felt humiliated by being forced to call someone "master," but she didn't want to experience the painful punishment she already knew, so she clenched her fists and forced herself to utter those two words.
"Master."
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's almost tearful expression, a glint flashed in Zhu Zhuyun's eyes, then disappeared, leaving her lost in thought.
While Mu Changge's situation was resolved, Hu Liena hadn't yet reached her optimal state. After all, she was preparing to absorb a spirit ring exceeding the limit for a fifth spirit ring.
Although Mu Changge's help had evolved her martial soul and significantly improved her physical attributes, absorbing a 20,000-year-old spirit ring for her fifth spirit ring was still very dangerous.
However, before Hu Liena could prepare, the Three-Eyed Demon Fox, which had failed to self-destruct three times ,
couldn't wait any longer. A powerful surge of spirit power suddenly erupted from the Three-Eyed Demon Fox, its power far surpassing its previous attempts at self-destruction.
The Three-Eyed Demon Fox first roared angrily at Mu Changge, seemingly cursing, then let out two soft cries at Hu Liena, presumably annoyed that her preparations had taken too long.
Finally, a dark spirit ring rose from its body and enveloped Hu Liena. Before Hu Liena could even react, the spirit ring had already fused into her body.
Hu Liena: ???
That's it?
What happened to the soul impact of the ten-thousand-year-old soul beast?
What happened to the throbbing pain of soul power filling my entire body?
All my mental preparation was for nothing?
"Master, what's going on... Ugh!! My head hurts so much!"
Hu Liena was about to ask Mu Changge if he knew the reason when she suddenly felt a tearing pain in her mind, as if her head was about to explode!
