Chapitre 29: Chapter 29: Only Children Make Choices, I Want It All!
"Hold on tight!"
The gentle male voice reverberated in Zhu Zhuqing's ears, causing her to instinctively cling to the warm and strong body holding her.
The next moment, accompanied by the rushing wind in her ears, Zhu Zhuqing felt herself being whisked away from her original spot at an incredible speed.
She opened her eyes slightly, lifting her head to sneak a glance at her rescuer. And then... she was stunned.
What a handsome young man!
With sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, red lips, and white teeth, and a body enveloped in a jade-like glow, she had never seen such a pleasing sight.
At the same time, Zhu Zhuyun and the Xingluo Royal Secret Guards were equally shocked.
Just as they were about to kill Zhu Zhuqing, a purple-clad youth, shrouded in golden light, had suddenly shot out from the dense forest, appearing beside Zhu Zhuqing.
Then, he pulled Zhu Zhuqing into his embrace. With a slight shift, he evaded the concentrated attacks of over a dozen soul masters, moving with such speed that it seemed like teleportation, leaving everyone dumbfounded!
Clearly, this youth was not to be trifled with!
And when faced with someone formidable, negotiation was naturally the first choice.
"Sir, you probably don't know her. She's my sister and a traitor to our family. I hope you can make things easier for us."
Gazing at the impossibly handsome youth holding her sister, Zhu Zhuyun's eyes flickered as she spoke sweetly.
"Traitor? Are all your family's traitors this beautiful?"
Looking at the bombshell of a girl with a cold demeanor in his arms, Zhou Chen couldn't resist his cheeky nature.
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing could no longer maintain her cold demeanor, her face turning red with embarrassment.
Zhu Zhuyun, on the other hand, was momentarily stunned, inwardly cursing Zhou Chen for his lack of taste. What was so pretty about that little girl?
She herself was much more charming!
Despite her silent disdain for his taste, Zhu Zhuyun maintained her smile, "It seems you intervened because of my sister's looks. But I must advise you, reality isn't like a knight's tale. Playing the hero can be dangerous..."
Before Zhu Zhuyun could finish, Zhou Chen interrupted as if a tail had been stepped on, "Shut up! You can eat anything you want, but you can't say whatever you want! Am I a shallow person who judges by appearances?"
You clearly are.
Zhu Zhuyun inwardly retorted, but outwardly she kept her smile, "Then, who are you, sir?"
"As basic courtesy, you should introduce yourself before asking about others," Zhou Chen raised an eyebrow.
"You..."
Anger surged in Zhu Zhuyun's heart. Being repeatedly countered like this, her naturally ruthless temperament flared. She hadn't encountered many who dared speak to her this way!
However, recalling the youth's impressive skills, Zhu Zhuyun suppressed her anger and replied seriously, "I am Zhu Zhuyun, the eldest daughter of the Zhu family of Xingluo Empire, inheritors of the Nether Civet lineage."
As expected!
Hearing this name, Zhou Chen immediately understood.
Zhu Zhuyun was the fiancée of Xingluo's Crown Prince, Davis; and the girl he just saved was likely Zhu Zhuqing, the fiancée of Xingluo's Third Prince, Dai Mubai.
No wonder this girl sprouted cat ears when she released her martial soul—it was the Nether Civet, just like in the original plot of the Shrek Seven Devils!
Zhou Chen was quite familiar with this storyline.
He remembered that the Xingluo royal succession was exceptionally brutal, with princes needing to kill each other to determine the heir.
Third Prince Dai Mubai, who would become the leader of the Shrek Seven Devils, couldn't bear this brutal competition. After witnessing his second brother killed by his eldest brother, Davis, he suffered a mental breakdown and fled the Xingluo Empire, seeking refuge at Shrek Academy, spending his days drinking and womanizing, earning disdain.
After cowardly Dai Mubai fled, the loyal and righteous Zhu Zhuqing followed him.
However, the Zhu family's women, who had intermarried with the Xingluo royal family for generations, were also forced to kill each other for their husbands.
Thus, Zhu Zhuyun, as the elder sister, led Xingluo Royal Secret Guards across great distances to hunt down her sister, Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhou Chen had ridiculed this melodramatic family drama multiple times when watching the original plot back on Earth.
He never expected to witness it firsthand today.
Looking at Zhu Zhuqing, who was on the verge of tears from fear, Zhou Chen felt it was his duty and obligation to settle both old and new scores, eliminating these evil Xingluo Royal Secret Guards!
Of course, it wasn't just because of the girl; it was for his own revenge, and for justice and righteousness!
Observing Zhou Chen's silence, Zhu Zhuyun assumed he was intimidated by her family's status.
After all, the Zhu family was a grand duchy of the Xingluo Empire, closely tied to the royal family, with powerful Titled Douluo among their ranks, which was indeed intimidating.
Thinking this, Zhu Zhuyun slightly raised her chin, arms crossed, with a hint of arrogance, "Surely you've realized, for a girl you barely know, offending our Zhu family isn't wise."
"Wise choice?"
Zhou Chen smirked, looking at Zhu Zhuyun, "Sorry, only children make choices. I want it all!"
