Douluo Continent: I Have No Thieves Under Heaven, the Explosive King Returns

Chapter 18 Hatred Inspires Effort (A Trial Read, Please Read and Add to Favorites!)
"What, you don't want to?"

With a gentle push of his foot, Dai Mubai's face slowly sank into the ground, and in the blink of an eye, half of his face was buried in the ground.

Flanders is a hypocritical, profit-driven, and money-obsessed miser with no moral bottom line.

Asking him to hand over the shops in Soto City now would be like taking half his life.

The thief-free world wouldn't give him a chance to bargain; he continued to exert force with his foot.

If he doesn't agree quickly, Dai Mubai's head might not be crushed, but he could very well suffocate in the mud.

“Dai Mubai is my cash cow, he absolutely cannot die. This time, I’ll use the shop to redeem him and Hongjun, and then he can make up for it when we get back to the academy.”

After a fierce internal struggle, Flanders reluctantly said, "Fine, I'm willing to use that shop to redeem my student. I hope this young master will be lenient!"

The author, who knows that oppression has reached its limit, understands the principle that things will turn around when they reach their extreme.

"Although I didn't kill Ma Hongjun, that punch I threw wasn't easy to take. I'll take it slow; I'll torture him to death slowly!"

He glanced at Ma Hongjun in the distance without leaving a trace, then kicked Dai Mubai out of the pit before leaving with his shifty-eyed face.

The onlookers immediately made way for him, afraid of blocking his path.

Flander watched the departing figure of the thief-free man, a surge of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"Hmph, I, Flander, have always been the one taking advantage of others; no one has ever been able to take advantage of me. You and your brother will have your share of loneliness eventually!"

Then, amidst the pointing fingers and whispers of the crowd, he took Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun away, completely ruining Shrek Academy's reputation in Soto City.

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Dai Mubai, who was being taken away, and then at Tianxia Wuzei in the distance. She bit her lip tightly, her mind in turmoil.

But in the end, she still chose to continue following behind the thief-free world.

Admiring the strong is simply a deep-seated human instinct.

Not only is the Thief of the World powerful, but he also has an unfathomable background, and can even command a Soul Douluo-level expert.

In contrast, Dai Mubai is just an ordinary prince of the Star Luo Empire, and now he has fallen into depravity, with no hope of winning in the Star Luo Empire's succession system.

If it were anyone else, they would probably choose "No Thieves Under Heaven" instead of Dai Mubai.

On the way back, the thief did not feel any joy for having tricked Flander.

He looked at him cautiously with shifty eyes, thinking that he had caused trouble and displeased the boss.

He gritted his teeth and stood in front of Tianxia Wuzei: "Boss, I've gotten you into trouble today. If you're unhappy, then beat me up to vent your anger!"

"Huh?" The thief was taken aback by his sudden words, but quickly came to his senses.

He immediately ruffled the little dog's hair, which had shifty eyes, and comforted it, "No, you did very well."

"Boss, why do you still look so sullen?!" he asked, his face full of confusion.

With piercing eyes, Tianxia Wuzei pressed his hands heavily on the shoulders of the shifty-eyed man and said in a deep voice, "Six years have passed. There are some things you should know."

"Huh? What's wrong?" the shifty-eyed man pressed for details.

"I'll tell you when we get home." With that, Tianxia Wuzei slapped him on the head in a bad mood.

As for the cardinal, the Thief of the World tasked him with taking over Flander's shop in Soto City and monitoring Shrek Academy's every move.

It was already night when I got home. The traitor and the man who recognized the enemy as his father had already prepared dinner quickly.

The traitorous minister, seeing that there were no thieves under heaven and the shifty-eyed man had returned, said, "Eldest brother, fourth brother, you're finally back! Come and try the cooking of the third brother!"

Without any hesitation, the thief walked up to the whole roasted pig, tore off a hind leg and handed it to the shifty-eyed man, while he himself took a front leg and ate it.

At the same time, he activated his nascent Wind Domain, and after sensing that there was no one within a hundred meters, he solemnly looked at the three traitors.

The traitor and the man who had recognized the enemy as his father, seeing that there were no more thieves in the world, panicked a bit, thinking that their skills were lacking and had angered the boss. Seeing this, the shifty-eyed man comforted him, "What are you thinking about, Second Brother and Third Brother? The boss has something to tell us!"

"No Thieves Under Heaven" took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping over the three men like a blade, his voice low and suppressed.

"For six years, I've kept a secret from you. Our parents... didn't actually die at the hands of spirit beasts."

The traitor dropped the roasted meat from his hands with a thud, and, recognizing the enemy as his father, suddenly stood up, knocking over his chair with a loud bang.

His shifty-eyed eyes narrowed sharply, and a trembling voice squeezed out, "Boss, what did you say?!"

"It was man-made." Tianxia Wuzei said slowly and deliberately, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked. "Our parents were killed by someone, to be precise, by a Soul Master."

"Who did this?! I'll tear him apart!!" The traitor's eyes turned bloodshot, and his violent soul power suddenly erupted, shaking the dining table violently.

He grabbed the man, who was pretending to be his father, but his own hand was trembling, though his voice was frighteningly calm: "Boss, who is the murderer?"

"No Thief Under Heaven," staring at the shifty-eyed man, raised his hand and pointed directly towards Soto City: "The one who killed your parents was that red-haired fatso, and that four-eyed old bastard Flander was an accomplice!"

He uttered the names of Ma Hongjun and Flander between his teeth, as if he were chewing on flesh and blood.

"boom!"

A shockwave erupted from his shifty-eyed, rat-like face, twisting his once-childish features into a狰狞 (zhengning - ferocious/hateful) expression of hatred.

"What?! It's that fatso?! That piece of trash who almost got punched to death by the boss! How dare he, how dare he!"

Recognizing the thief as his father, he grabbed a dinner knife from the table and stabbed it into the tabletop, sending wood chips flying: "Blood for blood."

The traitorous official overturned the entire table, and the roasted whole pig slammed against the wall, becoming a pool of grease: "Go and slaughter them now!"

Suddenly, the Thief Under Heaven unleashed terrifying soul power, instantly suppressing the three of them.

"Calm down! Flander is a Soul Saint, are you all rushing to your deaths with your current strength?!"

He stared into the three men's bloodshot eyes and said solemnly, "You want to avenge your father and mother, that's fine, but then you'll have to work hard to become stronger. Otherwise, I won't let you take any risks, understand?!"

"Boss, we understand." The three traitors weren't stupid; they had learned a lot during their six years following Tianxia Wuzei.

Patience is one of them.

"You all still lack practical combat experience. Starting tomorrow, you'll all be going to the Soto City Grand Arena to practice real combat!" Tianxia Wuzei continued, "You all lack practical combat experience. Starting tomorrow, you'll all be going to the Soto City Grand Arena to practice real combat!"

In the past six years, apart from their annual life-or-death battle with the Golden Generation, all they had to do was fight among their brothers.

Therefore, there is a lack of diverse practical experience.

The reason for telling them about their parents' killer at this time is to motivate them to strive to become stronger.

Hatred is undoubtedly one of the things that can unleash human potential.

Upon hearing this news, the three traitors lost their appetite and focused solely on becoming stronger.

Without wasting a moment, they returned to the cabin and began meditating and practicing.

Although they could ask their master to kill Flander, they wouldn't do it.

Only by killing Flander and Ma Hongjun could they appease the spirits of their parents in heaven.

Instead of immediately returning to the cabin, Tianxia Wuzei walked into the woods not far from the cabin.

He looked at the silent woods, his gaze settling on a large tree: "Come out, I know you're here."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a person emerged from behind the tree—it was Zhu Zhuqing, who had returned.
