Chapter 63: Dai Mubai: I'll Help Brother Tianheng!
Could it be that Brother Tianheng has some hidden feelings?
As the Third Prince of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Mubai, even if he wasn't good at observing, could still discern emotions from expressions.
Yu Tianheng was clearly in a bad mood at this moment, seemingly burdened by something on his mind.
For such a genius to show such an expression, Dai Mubai instantly became curious.
"Mubai, to be honest with you, my coming to Shrek Academy was an accident. A year ago, I was still studying at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"At that time, Teacher Qin Ming and I were preparing to establish the Heaven Dou Battle Team, to prepare for the next All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament."
"But the accident came too quickly. A scoundrel named Pei Qing suddenly appeared. He not only ruined the plans Teacher Qin Ming and I had prepared for so long, but he also stole the person I liked."
"I challenged him, but my strength was insufficient, and in the end, he humiliated me. If I still have a chance, I will make him pay the price!"
Yu Tianheng clenched his fists, his eyes filled with hatred. If he had another chance, he would certainly make Pei Qing pay.
"Brother Tianheng, don't worry. I, Dai Mubai, despise those who bully the weak the most. When there's an opportunity, I'll go with you to teach this kid named Pei Qing a lesson."
"After all, we Shrek are not to be trifled with!"
Dai Mubai clenched his fists, tone firm. Helping Yu Tianheng teach a lesson to that kid, if he could gain the goodwill of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, it would be worth it.
He hadn't expected that Yu Tianheng, who looked so distinguished, couldn't even protect the woman he liked.
Dai Mubai secretly scoffed to himself. He had originally thought Yu Tianheng was someone worth befriending, but he hadn't expected him to be so weak and incompetent.
However, to win over the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and gain their goodwill, he, Dai Mubai, the Third Prince of the Star Luo Empire, was willing to temporarily become friends with him.
"Mubai, I didn't expect you to be so chivalrous and righteous. From today on, you are my best brother, Yu Tianheng!"
"Brother Tianheng, say no more. Let's continue drinking. What Pei Qing? He's just a stumbling block on our path forward. In the future, he will surely bow down at our feet."
"Mubai!"
"Brother Tianheng!"
Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng held hands, their eyes filled with each other's figures, their expressions as if they couldn't wait to become sworn brothers right then and there.
....
"Cough cough... cough cough..." Pei Qing coughed continuously. He always felt like someone was speaking ill of him behind his back.
"What's wrong? Are you sick? Do you want Sister Lingling to help you with treatment?"
Shui Bing'er sat beside Pei Qing, asking with some concern.
"It's nothing. It's probably just a few clowns speaking ill of me behind my back. Besides, with my current physical strength, I've long been immune to hot and cold. If I don't want to, with my physical strength, I won't get sick at all!"
Pei Qing shook his head, refocusing his gaze on the textbook.
Shui Bing'er didn't say anything more about it. Since Pei Qing said he was fine, he must be fine.
After all, Pei Qing was a genius who could absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring at the fourth soul ring. Shui Bing'er recalled the scene of sparring with Pei Qing last night, and her heart immediately trembled. She secretly looked at the man beside her with some admiration.
No wonder Sister Yan and Sister Lingling both liked Pei Qing. He was truly excellent. Not only was he from the Crown Prince Palace, receiving great importance from His Highness the Crown Prince, but his talent was also exceptional. He was destined to become the strongest on the continent in the future.
It's only natural for such a person to be liked by more girls, right? And he smells so good. She wants to explore why he smells so good.
An inexplicable annoyance rose in Shui Bing'er's heart. She felt like she was acting like a lovesick fool.
Pei Qing didn't notice Shui Bing'er's expression; he was only thinking about the Immortal Herb suitable for her.
Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass—no, this kind of Immortal Herb contains extreme cold. If consumed, one would instantly freeze to death.
Even if Shui Bing'er possessed the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass was truly too dangerous.
"It's a pity that the Eight Treasure Immortal Orchid has already been consumed by Sister Lingling; otherwise, with its effect of strengthening the foundation and nourishing the origin, it would have been perfect for Bing'er."
"However, in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, there are countless Immortal Herbs, and quite a few are still suitable for Bing'er."
"Ten-thousand-year Ice Phoenix Grass paired with ten-thousand-year Insect Grass and thousand-year Purple Ganoderma should be enough to purify Bing'er's Ice Phoenix Martial Soul and allow her Martial Soul to advance further."
"However, to evolve her Martial Soul into Ultimate Ice, she will probably need to absorb quite a few high Bloodline level Soul Beast rings as assistance."
"That is why the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass is not wise right now. Its essence cannot be directly extracted; otherwise, this Immortal Herb would be the most suitable for Shui Bing'er to consume."
After class, Pei Qing directly took Shui Bing'er and the two other girls to Dugu Bo's residence.
When Dugu Bo heard that Pei Qing wanted to take Shui Bing'er to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, he immediately looked at Pei Qing with a gaze of someone looking at a prodigal son.
In Dugu Bo's eyes, Pei Qing was completely blinded by beauty.
That was a dignified Immortal Herb. One Immortal Herb was enough to transform a person of ordinary talent.
And this brat wanted to use a precious Immortal Herb for a girl he had only recently met. It was simply a waste of heavenly resources.
Shui Bing'er's eyes were also slightly complicated at this moment. In the past two days, she had also learned some information about Immortal Herbs from Dugu Yan.
She now understood just how precious Immortal Herbs were. Such treasures would probably be cherished as ultimate treasures even by major powers.
But Pei Qing was willing to take out such a precious Immortal Herb for her.
"Pei Qing, why don't we just forget it? Immortal herbs are too precious. Even if I agreed to join the Crown Prince Palace, I haven't accomplished anything yet. It would be better to wait until I've established some merits in the future before discussing the use of Immortal Herbs."
Shui Bing'er saw that Dugu Bo was somewhat unwilling. Although she desperately wanted to fully compensate for her Martial Soul, she didn't want to cause any friction between Pei Qing and Dugu Bo because of herself.
So she quickly declined, stating that it wouldn't be too late to choose an Immortal Herb after she had made contributions in the future.
Listening to her words, Pei Qing just shook his head. He could feel that Shui Bing'er wasn't being polite, and that was enough.
"Bing'er, there's no need for that. Since I used an Immortal Herb to get you to join the Crown Prince Palace, there's no reason for me to go back on my word."
"Besides, a mere Immortal Herb is incomparable to a genius like you, who possesses a top-tier Martial Soul—the Ice Phoenix!"
"Grandpa Dugu, hurry up, don't waste any more time!"
