Chapter 398 The Shrek Five Monsters Meet First.
"Huh! What's going on?"
Ma Hongjun was startled at first, then a hint of joy appeared on his face as he enveloped his fist with blazing phoenix soul power. Facing Dai Mubai's fist, he didn't back down and threw a punch!
Seeing this, Xuan Mo quickly used his soul power to envelop both of them, isolating the surrounding soldiers and civilians to prevent accidental injury. He also released 50% of his aura, pressing all the soldiers who were about to attack to the ground. And he said unhurriedly, "Don't disturb your prince's fun."
"Boom!"
When the two fists collided, a burst of heat and a sharp soul power erupted at the same time, sweeping outwards. Even the ground beneath their feet cracked at this moment. If it weren't for Xuan Mo's protection, everyone would have been affected.
"Fatty, your skills have improved a lot in the past five years!"
After the dust from the aftershocks dissipated, Dai Mubai's laughing figure appeared together with Ma Hongjun.
"Boss Dai, you're not bad either!"
Just then, Zhu Zhuqing, who had transformed into a black shadow, suddenly appeared silently beside Dai Mubai, her face grim. She reached out and touched his waist.
"Ouch!" Dai Mubai gasped in pain, pleading softly, "Zhuqing, it hurts... the civilians, soldiers, and everyone else are watching! Give me some face."
"Hmph! I'm being too lenient."
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at him, and although she said this softly, she subtly withdrew her hand, still giving Dai Mubai a cold look.
"Ahem." Dai Mubai coughed awkwardly, then resumed his serious expression, waving his hand at the soldiers still being pressed to the ground by Xuan Mo, "Men, clear the area!"
Seeing this, Xuan Mo quickly withdrew his imposing aura.
The soldiers, upon rising, immediately went to complete Dai Mubai's task. In less than ten breaths, only Xuan Mo and his group, along with the soldiers, remained on the ground.
Then, Dai Mubai gave the soldiers the order, "Alright, you can all retreat now. Wait for me ahead."
"Yes, sir!" Upon hearing this order, the soldiers didn't hesitate at all, immediately forming ranks and heading forward. This surprised Xuan Mo again, because these soldiers were like machines, completely incapable of disobeying any orders given from above.
At this moment, Dai Mubai also noticed Xuan Mo's gaze. So he stepped forward, put his arm around Dai Mubai's shoulder, and laughed, "Haha, how are the soldiers of our Star Luo Empire?"
Xuan Mo gave a thumbs up, "Not bad, so obedient!"
"That's right!" Just as Dai Mubai was feeling smug, Zhu Zhuqing sneered from the side, "Heh, but what about their Crown Prince, who's in charge of inspecting the city? He actually attacked people in the city at will, disregarding the safety of civilians and soldiers."
Dai Mubai's face stiffened, and he muttered, "Didn't Old Mo block him? I knew Old Mo was reliable, he would block him."
"Heh..."
Zhu Zhuqing didn't continue speaking, only sneered.
But then, Dai Mubai and the others burst into laughter. Even Zhu Zhuqing's icy expression vanished instantly, her eyes slightly reddening.
Amidst the laughter, Xuan Mo and Zhu Zhuqing stood to the side, while Dai Mubai spread his arms and hugged Oscar and Ma Hongjun tightly.
Immediately, a series of cracking sounds rang out.
After the three released him, Ma Hongjun recklessly said, "Boss Dai, actually, after five years, what I really want to do is hug Zhu Qing."
However, a scream followed...
"Ouch! Boss Dai, you hit too hard!" Ma Hongjun rubbed his head and groaned. Having just exchanged blows and roughly knowing Ma Hongjun's strength, Dai Mubai said irritably, "Fatty, your cultivation is better than mine, isn't it?"
"Hehe, you caught me."
Looking at the clownish Ma Hongjun, Dai Mubai rolled his eyes at him and then turned to Oscar. As the former "Shrek Casanova" who had walked through countless women without ever getting attached, he immediately noticed the strange look in Oscar's eyes as he looked at the girl over there. So, he grabbed him and pulled him aside.
"Little Oscar, you're in love, aren't you?"
Oscar was startled by the question, clearly flustered. Then, after Dai Mubai said, "You can't hide it from me," he could only wave his hand shyly, "It's not even close to being settled yet."
"Tch." Dai Mubai sneered, then called out to Xuan Mo, who was watching the scene unfold, "Old Mo, is Rongrong with you?"
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing also looked at Xuan Mo. Xuan Mo's eyes suddenly dimmed. "No."
For five years, he hadn't sent a single message back to Ning Rongrong at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. After leaving Douluo Continent, he seemed to have vanished into thin air.
It was conceivable that he had been completely out of contact for five years. Meanwhile, Ning Rongrong had been waiting for him at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
The guilt in Xuan Mo's heart was unimaginable.
Seeing that Xuan Mo's expression was somewhat off, and with Ma Hongjun and Oscar constantly giving him meaningful glances, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing realized something was wrong and immediately changed the subject.
After greeting Ryder and the others, Dai Mubai looked at Shenger and Pierre Cardin's group, asking, "By the way, who are they?"
The group quickly introduced them.
After the introductions, Dai Mubai extended an invitation, "Let's get together tonight. Zhu Qing and I will take you to try some local specialties, go shopping, and have some fun."
However, as soon as Dai Mubai made the suggestion, everyone except Xuan Mo and his two companions declined.
Everyone knew that Dai Mubai's real invitation wasn't to all of them, but only to five of the Shrek Eight Monsters, so it wouldn't be appropriate for others to go.
Hearing Ryder and the others refuse, Dai Mubai didn't insist. Instead, he called over some soldiers nearby, instructing them to leave, leaving behind a carriage, and to take Ryder and the others to a hotel for the night. Moreover, he, Dai Mubai, would personally reimburse the expenses for the night.
No one objected to this.
After Ryder and the soldiers left, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing went to a clothing store and changed their clothes.
Then, as the host, Dai Mubai put his arm around Xuanmo and Zhu Zhuqing, saying, "Let's go, I'll take you to book a hotel before we go sightseeing."
However, at this moment, Ma Hongjun suddenly asked, "Boss Dai, isn't this your first day here? How do you know so much about this place?"
