Chapter 193 Everlasting
Huo Yuhao was not going to be fooled; he had a million ways to identify the soul bone that was most suitable for him.
Xu Jiujiu certainly wouldn't lie. She's not an idiot, and she wouldn't be so petty as to use such a low-class method to help her family reduce their losses.
Their conversation sounded like flirting, but in the process, both sides made their sincerity clear.
Huo Yuhao's investment in the Star Luo Royal Family, his gratitude for Xu Jiujiu's good intentions, Xu Jiujiu's trust in Huo Yuhao, and her satisfaction with the object of their Star Luo Empire's willingness to invest heavily without reservation—all these were encompassed in these two short sentences.
"Alright, the important business is done, so I won't bother you any longer. Just don't forget to attend the top-tier auction in a few days! It's an auction I'm hosting! If you dare not go, I'll write it down!"
As she spoke, she gently withdrew her arms after a long while. Her radiant smile added to her playful and adorable appearance, and she skipped and hopped away as if fleeing.
Huo Yuhao watched her departing figure, his hands clenching together as if savoring something.
"Hmm, her arms are so soft, her skin is so smooth..."
As he reminisced, Huo Yuhao even made a small, serious comparison with the girls he had been intimate with...
Just as he was upholding his scientific spirit and conducting sample analysis, a familiar figure appeared behind him...
"Snapped!"
A soft, delicate hand gently rested on Huo Yuhao's shoulder.
Huo Yuhao stiffened as if waking from a dream, then slowly turned his head to look. The person who came was Zhang Lexuan.
He saw a gentle and beautiful woman with long, dark hair looking at him with great interest.
"How did your talk with that princess go? It must have gone well, right? You look so reluctant to leave." Zhang Lexuan said, her other hand already secretly grabbing Huo Yuhao's soft flesh at the waist.
"Hiss... It seems the Star Luo Royal Family is going to give me a big gift. After the competition, Princess Jiu Jiu is going to personally take me to the Star Luo Royal Family's treasury to choose something!"
Hearing Huo Yuhao's answer, Zhang Lexuan was astonished, and even the hand that was gripping Huo Yuhao's soft flesh loosened involuntarily.
"Why is the Star Luo royal family being so generous? They couldn't possibly not know you're from Shrek Academy! Does this mean they're here to snatch you away? And they're calling you so affectionately, you haven't fallen for this little brat, have you?"
As she spoke, Zhang Lexuan seemed both puzzled and angry. Clearly, she was very dissatisfied with the Star Luo Royal Family's boundless investment, and even more annoyed by Huo Yuhao's overly affectionate way of addressing her.
"Relax, relax. Would I be so reckless? The Star Luo Royal Family had no intention of directly poaching students from the academy. It's just that when Xu Jiujiu was in contact with me a while ago, she noticed that her Star Crown Martial Soul was attracted to the Star Power in my body. In addition, they were preparing to take action against the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, and I gave them an excuse, which led to the so-called gift-giving incident."
"Should I inform the academy about Dai Yueheng's matter beforehand? He's a quasi-Soul Saint level evil soul master; it might not be appropriate to ignore him."
Huo Yuhao shook his head and said, "Neither the Star Luo Royal Family nor the White Tiger Duke's Mansion wants Shrek Academy to get involved in this matter. The original three kingdoms of Douluo were already very dissatisfied with Shrek Academy's long-arm jurisdiction. Without their direct request and entrustment, we have no reason to interfere."
"Moreover, Dai Yueheng's mutated martial soul is actually the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger... Although its bloodline is still quite mixed, it cannot be said that it is unrelated to that 100,000-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. With such a peerless ferocious beast watching us from behind, we'd better wait and see."
"Furthermore, I've already used the corpse puppet's abilities to set up a teleportation array within the White Tiger Duke's mansion. If anything unexpected happens, Sister Lexuan, you'll have to come with me!"
Zhang Lexuan nodded gently, and under Huo Yuhao's simulated cover, the two embraced.
Above the Star Luo Imperial City, Xu Jiawei was watching the match between Shrek Academy and Zheng Tian Academy with great interest.
At this moment, Xu Jiujiu returned from Huo Yuhao's side. The elegant princess slowly walked to Xu Jiawei's side, gave a slight bow, and then smiled, "Brother, the matter has been settled."
"Really? I originally thought Huo Yuhao would strongly refuse."
"I told him that my Star Crown Martial Soul had reacted strangely because of him. I also explained that I had once used it to determine the constellation. Judging from his reaction, I guess he knew something, which is why he didn't refuse."
Xu Jiawei's eyes flickered slightly as he shifted his gaze from the competition stage to Xu Jiujiu. "Now I have another reason to persuade you to join..."
Xu Jiujiu blushed, but this time she did not refute Xu Jiawei. "If it really involves an opportunity related to the foundation of a martial soul, Jiujiu will naturally not give up this opportunity."
Xu Jiawei smiled and said, "This brat is a bit too popular with women, but his character and abilities are exceptional. If you can truly win his heart, our relationship with this future prodigy will likely become even closer. Even if it's not as good as Shrek Academy, it will be enough to ensure the Xu family's prosperity for thousands of years."
Xu Jiujiu was somewhat surprised; clearly, she hadn't understood her elder brother's meaning. She knew Huo Yuhao was undoubtedly the greatest genius of their time, but to directly elevate this to the rise and fall of their Star Crown lineage over ten thousand years seemed a bit excessive.
Xu Jiawei noticed the long-standing confusion and explained with a faint smile, "Previously, I asked someone to collect information about Huo Yuhao from Shrek Academy. There was only some scattered information about his freshman assessment when he entered the academy, especially the final round. The people from the Sea God Pavilion probably know something, which is why they are blocking information about Huo Yuhao on such a large scale."
"So what could be the reason that the Sea God Pavilion would go to such lengths to block information? The second son of the Dai family? A marriage alliance tool for the Zhu family? Obviously, it can't be related to them. And in the final championship group, the key to overpowering the ancestral martial soul fusion technique of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion and the Netherworld Duke's Mansion and ultimately winning the competition can only be Huo Yuhao."
"Ma Xiaotao, the personal disciple of Mingfeng Douluo Yan Shaozhe, is a descendant of the Phoenix Douluo from ten thousand years ago, and her martial soul is the Evil Fire Phoenix. The biggest problem with this type of martial soul is that the evil energy in the phoenix fire hinders the possibility of further purifying the phoenix bloodline."
"The relationship between this female Soul Master with the Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul and Huo Yuhao is far from simple. You should have noticed their interactions these past few days. So what exactly is the reason that this female Soul Emperor with the Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul has fallen for Huo Yuhao?"
T
"Besides Ma Xiaotao, there's also that female Soul Emperor with an ice element martial soul, who also has a close relationship with Huo Yuhao. Including Zhang Lexuan, who's known as the senior sister of the inner court, it can be said that the three most beautiful women in Shrek Academy's inner court have all fallen into Huo Yuhao's arms..."
