"What's wrong with me? I'm human," Huo Yuhao said helplessly. "I'll give you something else instead."

Gu Yuena gently shook her head. "You have a Achilles' heel, and that Achilles' heel must belong to me."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao glanced at Gu Yuena with a strange expression, wondering why the girl had suddenly become so domineering.

He always felt that something was off about the other person.

After a moment of silence, Huo Yuhao activated his Elemental Dragon King Martial Soul and carefully sensed the area. He actually found a sensitive spot.

Huo Yuhao removed the colorful scale that shimmered with elements of water, fire, time, and space, examined it for a moment, and then handed it to Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena nodded, and with a gentle touch of her finger, the colorful scale transformed into a pendant identical in style to the one Gu Yuena had given her, making them look like a pair of couple pendants.

Gu Yuena then returned the pendant to Huo Yuhao, where it floated in the air.

"Put it on for me."

The girl spoke calmly, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Huo Yuhao: "."

He was somewhat at a loss, confused, and felt that Gu Yuena was even stranger.

Huo Yuhao took the pendant and used his soul power to try to put it on her remotely, just like Gu Yuena had done earlier.

Soul power flowed, but the pendant remained unmoved.

Turn it again, and the pendant still hasn't moved—

Huo Yuhao was a little puzzled, then he saw the girl opposite him blink her purple eyes, and Huo Yuhao stared at her.

Gu Yuena said calmly, "I want you to put it on for me personally."

Then why did you put it on me using your soul power from a distance? Huo Yuhao was speechless.

Seemingly sensing what Huo Yuhao was thinking, the girl blinked her pure purple eyes again and asked, "How about you take off the pendant and I'll put it on for you myself?"

"No need." Huo Yuhao's lips twitched. He had realized that Gu Yuena was all bark and no bite.

Huo Yuhao picked up the pendant, moved to stand in front of Gu Yuena, and looked at the girl's stunning face so close to his. Her delicate eyebrows, long eyelashes, and purple star-like eyes seemed to sparkle with starlight, bright and clear. She stared at him calmly without blinking, and beneath her calm gaze lay emotions he could not fathom, which made him momentarily lost in thought.

He composed himself, slowly wrapped his hands around the girl's fair neck, and personally helped her put on the pendant.

"Alright," Huo Yuhao said softly.

"Hmm." A faint smile seemed to appear on Gu Yuena's lips, but it was fleeting and Huo Yuhao didn't see it clearly.

"I'm going back now. I've finalized the details of our cooperation with Di Tian and the human who came with you," Gu Yuena said softly, gently touching the dragon scale pendant that had disappeared into the mountain stream.

"Then—goodbye." Huo Yuhao paused, his gaze sweeping over the girl's perfect, delicate body.

He felt uneasy, as if he were skiing on a steep, snowy mountain. He just hoped Gu Yuena would stop fiddling with the Reverse Scale pendant; didn't she know that the Reverse Scale also had a sense of touch?

Goodbye?

Gu Yuena pursed her lips, a ripple appearing in her eyes, and said softly, "We'll see each other again soon."

After saying that, he suddenly disappeared.

As Huo Yuhao watched Gu Yuena leave, the girl's lingering fragrance still hung in the air, and he felt a pang of loss.

After composing himself, Huo Yuhao headed towards Di Tian.

As soon as he appeared, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion pounced over, its melodious voice filled with joy, "It's so good that you're alright. I wanted to ask Di Tian to come and save you, but he insisted that someone else had already saved you."

Save my ass! Gu Yuena is just a spectator!

Huo Yuhao glanced at Di Tian, ​​then patted the head of the three-eyed golden lion, and said against his will, "Indeed, someone saved me."

The three-eyed golden lion's golden eyes shone with joy, but it quickly looked at Huo Yuhao with suspicion and shook off Huo Yuhao's hand from its head.

"Did you do something to offend me again? Otherwise, why are you touching my head?"

Huo Yuhao remained silent. This time, he remembered what he had said before: touching one's head signifies an apology.

He said without changing his expression, "I also said that patting someone's head is the most intimate way for people to express closeness. Have you forgotten?"

"Huh?!" The three-eyed golden lion tilted its head and thought for a long time, realizing that she probably hadn't understood Huo Yuhao's meaning at the time.

However, she quickly recovered from her gloom and looked at Huo Yuhao with sparkling eyes, asking, "Can I touch you?"

Huo Yuhao stared at the three-eyed golden lion's enormous, ferocious claws, the silver-gray claws gleaming with a cold light.

He felt his omen of death shining.

Chapter 292 Arrival at Heaven Dou City

292.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion ultimately failed to fulfill its wish of touching Huo Yuhao's head. Under Huo Yuhao's persuasion, it forgot about the matter in the blink of an eye, which made Di Tian frown deeply.

The cooperation between Shrek Academy and Star Dou Great Forest has finally been finalized. Shrek Academy will send Xian Lin'er and Elder Lin to be in charge, while Star Dou Great Forest will be represented by Bi Ji and the Red King.

Both sides expressed satisfaction with the strategic partnership reached during the negotiations and agreed to establish an alliance based on cooperation, mutual trust, strategic win-win, and common prosperity under the guidance and leadership of their respective leaders.

This news was exclusively reported by Huo Yuhao.

He had already returned to Shrek Academy. Looking back on his trip to the Star Dou Great Forest, he had gained quite a lot; the Demon Emperor Whale Pearl and Gu Yuena's Reverse Scale were both valuable items for survival.

In the Douluo Continent II world, because Tang San was there, he didn't dare to act recklessly with these things around. But in the Douluo Continent I world, he could probably act recklessly as he pleased.

Passing through the metal corridor of the Soul Guidance Department, Huo Yuhao stepped into the familiar Dean's office. His beautiful master glanced at him briefly as he entered, then looked vacant, as if his mind was absorbed in something else.

Huo Yuhao went to the Dream God Realm to investigate and found that his beautiful master was indeed making a soul tool there.

Huo Yuhao waited quietly, and before long, another dean, Cai Meier, arrived, drawn by the scent.

She glanced at Xian Lin'er, whose attention was elsewhere, then her alluring eyes turned to Huo Yuhao. Her tongue traced across her red lips as she gracefully walked to Huo Yuhao, knelt down, and began to work diligently.

Huo Yuhao blocked out his senses, both inside and outside, and squinted his eyes to enjoy the moment.

"Cai Meier!" Before long, Xian Lin'er's angry shout echoed in the office, her clear eyes glaring angrily at Cai Meier who had come close to her.

Cai Meier pursed her lips, gently licked away the white stains from the corner of Xian Lin'er's mouth, and said with a smile, "This is a reward I finally got from my master. You should be happy to share half with me."

Xian Lin'er's heaving chest heaved violently as she gritted her teeth and stared coldly at the fox spirit in front of her, trying her best to restrain her urge to kill her.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao quickly went behind his beautiful master and tried to calm her down.

"Teacher, I need to ask the academy for a six-month leave of absence," Huo Yuhao whispered in Xian Lin'er's ear.

"Six months?" Xian Lin'er frowned, her voice suddenly rising, "What are you going to do?"

Huo Yuhao said softly, "I'll go visit Nan Nan's mother first, and then go out for some training after I get the soul tool from the academy in half a month."

"Traitorous disciple," Xian Lin'er scolded in a seductive voice, then pursed her lips tightly and remained silent, clearly agreeing to Huo Yuhao's request.

Huo Yuhao immediately stopped being distracted and focused on dealing with the two deans.

Gu Yuena stood quietly by the rippling green lake in the Starry Sky Great Forest, stroking the Reverse Scale pendant in her hand, her purple eyes vacant, lost in thought.

After a while, several ferocious beasts appeared in this small space. They respectfully bowed to Gu Yuena, saying, "My lady."

Gu Yuena snapped out of her reverie, nodded gently, and said, "I will soon be heading to the human world. The Star Dou Great Forest will be under your command for the time being. If there is anything you cannot decide, Di Tian can contact me."

Why does our lord want to go to the human world? The beasts were puzzled, but none dared to ask.

Di Tian hesitated and asked, "My lord, what about your injuries?"

Gu Yuena said calmly, "My injuries have mostly healed, so I can go out without any problems."

"Furthermore, if any sea spirit beasts dare to attack after I leave, kill them without mercy. Although they are also spirit beasts, they have long since become believers of the Sea God, so Di Tian, ​​you don't need to show any mercy."

Gu Yuena's purple eyes gleamed with indifferent light, her soul power surging around her, her white dress fluttering in the wind, and her powerful aura made the heads of the ferocious beasts below break out in a cold sweat.

At this moment, she seemed to have transformed into the ruler of all soul beasts.

"In addition, we can ask the soul beasts that sacrificed themselves in this battle if they wish to be transformed into spirits and continue living," Gu Yuena continued.

Di Tian lowered his head: "Yes."

"Alright, you may leave now." Gu Yuena dismissed them, her crystal-like eyes fixed on the lovely, lively handwriting on a page of a booklet.

The next morning, a man and two women stood at the entrance of Shrek Academy. The man was handsome, and the women were youthful and beautiful.

Huo Yuhao looked at Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan, who were dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, and asked, "Sister Ya, Sister Nannan, are you ready?"

Tang Ya clenched her fist and said, "I'm ready. I've already completed the withdrawal procedures."

Jiang Nannan nodded, "I've also asked for leave."

Huo Yuhao waved his hand, "Then let's go."

After saying that, the three of them left Shrek City, took to the air, and headed towards Heaven Fighting City.

Huo Yuhao and Jiang Nannan both possess external soul bones, allowing them to fly on their own. Tang Ya, however, does not, so Huo Yuhao has to carry her while she flies.

Tang Ya clung tightly to Huo Yuhao the whole way, her cheeks flushed and covered in sweat, showing how hard she had worked to travel.

However, the hardship was worthwhile, and as evening approached, the three finally arrived at Tiandou City.

Along the way, Huo Yuhao not only had to fly himself, but also had to use a simulator to conceal his figure. However, he looked radiant and showed no signs of fatigue. On the contrary, Tang Ya was so tired that her legs were a little weak. She almost collapsed to the ground after getting off Huo Yuhao, but Huo Yuhao caught her with quick eyes and hands.

Huo Yuhao then looked at Jiang Nannan, who also looked somewhat tired. Huo Yuhao thoughtfully suggested, "Let's rest first after entering Tiandou City and recover our soul power. We can continue our actions tonight. You all look a bit tired."
