"Dong'er... Yuhao called me Dong'er again!" Wang Dong'er secretly rejoiced.
"No need." Wang Donger did not take the gold coin card from Huo Yuhao, but raised the card in his hand, "What's mine is yours, let me pay for it."
After saying that, without waiting for Huo Yuhao's response, Wang Donger immediately ran to pay.
Huo Yuhao shook his head, Wang Donger was really cute and silly.
"Is this piece of whale glue special?" Ning Tian asked.
As the eldest lady of the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect, Ning Tian is well-informed.
Of course she also knew about whale gum, but just like Wang Dong'er knew about it, Ning Tian only knew about it.
Soon, Wang Donger had returned the payment.
Although this piece of whale glue was not as conspicuous as the soul bone he bought before, Wang Donger still chose to pack it with the soul bone and collect it when he came back.
At this time, some other core disciples from the outer courtyard also came to the treasure appreciation party.
When they saw Huo Yuhao, several people's eyes lit up and they immediately walked over quickly.
"Leader." Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo shouted to Huo Yuhao in a low voice.
"Yes, how is the cultivation of the original martial soul?"
"Thanks to the leader, after the leader's guidance, we sisters have made steady progress." Lan Susu's face was filled with gratitude.
"Leader." In addition to Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo sisters, another person also came over.
Jiang Nannan was wearing a fifth grade black school uniform and looked at Huo Yuhao with a slightly respectful expression.
"When you're in Shrek City, you don't have to call me that. Senior Sister Nan Nan, how are you?"
"Those people have been arranged." Like the Lan sisters, Jiang Nannan also looked grateful, "Teach... Yuhao, thank you for helping them."
"It's okay, remember my teaching motto and always have compassion in your heart." Huo Yuhao said, "Senior Nan Nan, only you can do this."
"No, you are their savior. Without you, I can't even imagine..." Jiang Nannan stopped talking, because another person also came over.
"Nannan, you're here too, haha."
Xu Sanshi's voice came from behind. Seeing Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er, Xu Sanshi couldn't help but be startled.
"You guys are here too. Well, Nannan, what do you like? I'll buy it for you!" Xu Sanshi patted his chest, wanting to show his magnanimity.
"I don't need your money." Jiang Nannan said coldly.
"No." Xu Sanshi said with a flattering smile, "Just think of it as something I lent to you..."
"Don't say the word borrow to me!" Jiang Nannan's tone suddenly changed, and the look of disgust in her eyes was extremely strong.
"Uh... I have such a bad mouth." Looking at Jiang Nannan's retreating back, Xu Sanshi slapped himself, feeling a little regretful.
Huo Yuhao patted Xu Sanshi's body and said in a tone that sounded like someone who had experienced it before: "You will die badly if you lick a dog, senior. Just take care of yourself."
With that said, Huo Yuhao took the purchased items with Wang Donger and his four daughters, and also left here.
"I...you..." Xu Sanshi watched Huo Yuhao and the others leave in stunned silence, feeling as if he had been separated from the world for hundreds of years.
As for the solo battle he had requested, Xu Sanshi had already forgotten about it.
Outside the Jubao Pavilion, Ma Xiaotao and Zhang Lexuan saw Huo Yuhao coming out and immediately greeted him.
"How's it going? Brother, is there anything you want?" Ma Xiaotao said with a smile, "I heard from the old...dean. You dare to make conditions to the dean. It's true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers."
"With this little rich woman's soft food, what can't you buy?" Huo Yuhao patted Ning Tian on the shoulder.
Ning Tian's body was slightly stiff and his emotions were tense.
Fortunately, Huo Yuhao only took his hand after a few pats, and Ning Tian also breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon, Ning Tian felt a little disappointed again.
"You guys will follow Sister Xiaotao at a distance later. I'll go alone." Huo Yuhao said in a low voice.
"Sister Xiaotao, someone wants to kill me."
"What?!" Ma Xiaotao immediately became angry, "Is there anyone in Shrek City who dares to commit murder?"
"Xiao Tao, calm down." Zhang Lexuan was calmer than Ma Xiaotao. "Absolutely no one in Shrek City would dare to commit murder. If someone wanted to kill Huo Yuhao, they would probably choose to ambush outside the city."
"Then Yuhao, just come with us." Ma Xiaotao said worriedly.
Huo Yuhao shook his head, "Sister Xiaotao, don't you want to know who wants to kill me?"
"No matter who wants to kill you, he must pay the price!" Ma Xiaotao said.
"Sister Xiao Tao, you must be merciful and control them in a moment to prevent them from committing suicide. However, it may be that I am overthinking, and maybe he will not be so stupid this time." Huo Yuhao said.
"This time?" Zhang Lexuan caught a piece of information, but didn't pay much attention to it.
"But, what should you do?" Wang Dong'er took Huo Yuhao's hand and asked worriedly, "What if that group of people is very strong and we are too late to support you?"
"Don't worry, I have my own means to save my life. Okay, get ready to meet those rats." Huo Yuhao said.
However, he did not go out of the city first, but went to a hotel first and came out after a while.
Wang Dong'er and others were a little confused, but they didn't care. They just thought Huo Yuhao was doing something.
Outside Shrek City, Huo Yuhao was walking alone in front, while Wang Donger and others followed from a distance, all looking worried.
Huo Yuhao had already turned on the spirit detection, and used the disguise soul skill to pretend that the martial soul was not activated, hiding both soul rings.
As the mental detection changed into a straight line area, six lurking figures also appeared within the range of the mental detection.
Huo Yuhao calmly slowed down slightly. Wang Dong'er and others behind him immediately understood and spread out. Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao followed Zhang Lexuan, while Wu Feng and Ning Tian followed Ma Xiaotao.
Two groups of people came around from the left and right sides and arrived not far from Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao shared the mental detection with the six of them at the same time.
Wang Donger, Xiao Xiao, Wu Feng and Ning Tian had already experienced it, while Ma Xiaotao and Zhang Lexuan were secretly shocked when they experienced it for the first time.
Well, the reputation of some people has dropped again.
With Huo Yuhao's spiritual sharing, the other six people could now "see" the six people who were ambush.
"One soul emperor, five soul kings?" Zhang Lexuan raised her eyebrows, "You really think highly of Huo Yuhao."
At this moment, Huo Yuhao's voice sounded out of thin air in the minds of the six people.
"Sister Xuan, Sister Xiaotao, you will act according to the opportunity. Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, Ning Tian, Wu Feng, you will come closer to me when Sister Xuan and Sister Xiaotao take action."
Several people were shocked. It was only then that Wang Donger realized that Huo Yuhao could speak without opening his mouth through spiritual sharing.
Huo Yuhao gradually approached the ambush site, and when he was only a few dozen meters away, he suddenly turned back.
The six people who were lying in ambush were stunned for a moment, and then quickly got out of the hiding place, with all their soul rings revealed.
Among them, three people instantly took off into the air, while the other three pursued Huo Yuhao on the ground.
However, at this moment, a crescent moon suddenly appeared in the sky, and at the same time, four figures jumped out of the woods nearby and ran straight to Huo Yuhao.
The crescent moon in the sky suddenly turned golden, and then a crescent moon of the same size separated instantly and fell downwards from the sky.
Zhang Lexuan's fifth soul skill, Moonfall!
The falling crescent moon cut through the three soul masters in the air in an instant, cut off all their legs, and fell down.
The three soul masters also screamed and fell.
At the same time, the three soul masters on the ground wanted to retreat the moment the accident occurred.
However, a red figure blocked their way.
The flame madman, Ma Xiaotao.
"At this moment, Ma Xiaotao was enveloped in flames, her phoenix wings spread wide as she looked down with pride.
The six soul rings on Ma Xiaotao's body faintly glowed with a crimson light in the flames. The second and third soul rings simultaneously shone, and a burst of golden-red flames erupted like a geyser.
Ma Xiaotao flapped her wings, resembling a flaming meteor as she chased the three figures on the ground.
Under Ma Xiaotao's extreme speed, these three Soul Kings couldn't evade; their bodies were ignited by the phoenix flames, causing them to scream in agony.
Beside Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er and the others had gathered, watching Zhang Lexuan and Ma Xiaotao display their might, their eyes tinged with envy.
Once Zhang Lexuan controlled the six people to prevent them from suicide, the guards of Shrek City hurriedly arrived.
With everyone alive, these Soul Masters had no chance of keeping their secrets against the methods of the Shrek City guards.
Of course, some secrets, even if revealed, would remain undisclosed to outsiders.
After the Shrek City guards took these Soul Masters away, Huo Yuhao looked at Zhang Lexuan and Ma Xiaotao, smiling. "Thanks again for helping this time, Sister Lexuan and Sister Xiaotao."
"You're my brother, who else would I help?" Ma Xiaotao said nonchalantly.
Zhang Lexuan nodded. "Now that you're an inner court disciple, as your senior sister, it's my duty to protect you."
"However, daring to assassinate an inner court disciple near Shrek City suggests someone's growing impatient."
Huo Yuhao remained noncommittal.
Just on this basis, Di Huabin wouldn't be outright killed by Shrek Academy. After all, he was that man, the son of the White Tiger Duke.
The White Tiger Duke was the "Iron-Blooded War God" of the Star Luo Empire and a representation of the empire's dignity.
If Huo Yuhao wasn't actually killed in this assassination attempt, Shrek Academy wouldn't provoke the White Tiger Duke or the Star Luo Empire.
However, if Huo Yuhao had died in this incident, it would be a significant loss. Shrek Academy would most likely demand compensation from the White Tiger Duke and even the Star Luo Empire.
While Shrek Academy would be furious for losing an exceptional martial soul disciple, they wouldn't outright create a deadly enemy.
Yet, after this incident, Di Huabin wouldn't be able to stay at Shrek Academy. Even if he managed to remain, his chance of becoming an inner court disciple was extinguished.
Huo Yuhao remembered that in his previous life, Di Huabin had stayed at Shrek Academy.
In a way, if Di Huabin was directly expelled, it could be considered a favor. Perhaps, in the future, Di Huabin would lead a team when hunting soul beasts...
It had to be said that having two senior sisters from the inner court around made things much more convenient.
Meanwhile, a white figure silently disappeared into the shadows.
Ma Xiaotao clapped her hands, but her face was unusually flushed.
"Senior sister, please take them back first. I have something to attend to with Yuhao," Ma Xiaotao said hurriedly to Zhang Lexuan, not waiting for her response, and immediately carried Huo Yuhao away at high speed.
Wang Dong'er looked puzzled, watching Ma Xiaotao whisking away with Huo Yuhao, and opened her mouth.
"She... I..."
"Xiaotao also has some difficulties," Zhang Lexuan said. "Alright, let's leave now. The Academy will send someone to inquire soon."
On the other side, Huo Yuhao rested his head on Ma Xiaotao's shoulder while they raced.
Ma Xiaotao's face grew even more intensely flushed, her burning aura continuously emanating from her body.
Although Huo Yuhao had been reborn, his body was not. The fragrance emanating from Ma Xiaotao and the slightly scorching aura tantalized Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao hadn't expected that Ma Xiaotao's use of her martial soul would trigger a backlash of evil fire. He could only use his own martial soul to lower his body temperature drastically, turning the surface into ice to temporarily counteract the fire for Ma Xiaotao.
However, this was merely a temporary solution. After a while, Ma Xiaotao swiftly changed direction and arrived at a lake outside Shrek City.
It wasn't Sea God's Lake but a small mountain outside Shrek City where no one usually came.
"Yuhao, quickly... help me, use your extreme cold attribute to suppress the evil fire for me," Ma Xiaotao said hurriedly.
Huo Yuhao activated his spiritual detection and confirmed no one else was nearby. The Ice Jade Empress Scorpion martial soul immediately manifested.
A chill instantly spread from Huo Yuhao's body, covering Ma Xiaotao. When Ma Xiaotao was enveloped by this chill, her body slightly stiffened, and she made a contented sound, seeming very pleased.
Simultaneously, Ma Xiaotao's legs weakened, causing both her and Huo Yuhao to fall into the lake.
The lake water was chilly, which helped Ma Xiaotao regain some consciousness, but under the influence of the evil fire backlash, she couldn't worry about that. She just sought out the core of the coldness: Huo Yuhao, and hugged him tightly.
Caught off guard by Ma Xiaotao's sudden embrace, coupled with the unexpected lake water, Huo Yuhao almost choked. He waved his hands, freezing the water around them into ice and gradually floating them to the lake's surface.
Huo Yuhao's extreme cold suppressed Ma Xiaotao's fervor, yet it was still persistent.
Meanwhile, in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, the Eternal Sky Eye emitted a faint light, obscuring his entire spiritual sea.
