Transmigrating into Huo Yuhao, my abilities are refreshed every month.

"Yes."

"Where is the Spirit Hall?"

"Most of the Spirit Hall's people have been won over by us. Those we couldn't win over were killed and replaced with our own people. The Spirit Hall's people are responsible for providing us with information about those pretty girls, and we are responsible for capturing them."

Huo Yuhao sneered. The high-ranking officials of the Heaven Dou Empire behind this slave-hunting group were really good at scheming. They obtained slaves and made money, and then threw all the blame on the Spirit Hall. These city lords of the Heaven Dou Empire seemed to be pure and innocent, and could even collect money from the masses from time to time to "suppress bandits" and make a profit.

"What is the cultivation level of the recent city lord of Oran City?"

"Soul Emperor".

Huo Yuhao asked a few more questions, and once he had asked enough, he regained his strength and became a strong man.

The burly man regained consciousness, his face turning deathly pale, and he stared at Huo Yuhao with terror in his eyes.

Huo Yuhao killed the burly man without any mercy and said indifferently, "You have committed many evils. It's too easy for you to die so simply."

"What do we do next?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.

Ning Rongrong suggested, "Why don't we go back to Tiandou City first? I'll tell my dad about this, and he'll definitely handle it."

Huo Yuhao shook his head and said, "I still want to find out who's behind this slave-hunting group. These ordinary members might not know, but the city lords definitely do."

Firstly, he genuinely loathed these scumbags and wanted to investigate the mastermind behind it all as soon as possible. Although he wasn't a good person, he still had his bottom line; these human traffickers and the people behind them didn't deserve to be called human beings.

Secondly, this is also related to his subsequent plans.

Who is behind this slave-hunting group in the Heavenly Dou Empire? It can't be just one person; it's Qian Renxue disguised as Xue Qinghe.

To reach the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, he must contact Dugu Bo, and the best way to do so is through his granddaughter, Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan is at the Heaven Dou Empire Royal Academy, and all three members of the academy's teaching committee are Qian Renxue's people. Therefore, it would be best to use this matter to do Qian Renxue a favor, and then use him to enter the Heaven Dou Empire Royal Academy to find Dugu Yan.

Moreover, he had a suspicion that Prince Xuexing was likely behind this slave-hunting group.

In the original story, he disliked Prince Snowstar and Avalanche, which he supported.

To disguise their actions, the avalanche preyed on men and women, causing countless families to be torn apart and lives lost.

In the original story, Shrek Academy was the only strong link; otherwise, they would have been among those killed in the avalanche.

It's unbelievable that such a person was eventually exonerated, and Tang San and his friends even helped him become emperor. It's truly disgusting.

Choosing Xue Ke as an empress would be tens of thousands of times better than Xue Beng.

Chapter 123 The man behind the scenes

Huo Yuhao put the rescued mother and daughter into a soul tool that could hold living beings, and then came to Oran City with Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.

Along the way, the people of Oran ignored them, which was naturally due to the effect of the simulation.

Simulation can be considered Lao Liu's signature skill.

"Is this your soul skill? It's so fun!" Ning Rongrong dodged pedestrians who were about to bump into her, made a face in front of roadside vendors from time to time, and even tried to pat pedestrians on the shoulder.

Huo Yuhao quickly stopped him, because his simulation couldn't simulate touch.

The three quickly arrived at the city lord's mansion, where Huo Yuhao's mental detection was shared.

During the exploration, the personnel of the city lord's mansion were quickly identified.

One Soul King, six Soul Masters, and more than ten Soul Venerables were scattered throughout the City Lord's Mansion. In addition, there were two Soul Emperors!

Two Soul Emperors gathered together, a man and a woman. The man was the city lord, and the woman, Huo Yuhao guessed, was most likely the city lord's wife.

Huo Yuhao stared intently and said, "The plan has changed. There are two Soul Emperors. Let's wait and see if they separate."

According to their plan, they only needed to severely injure the city lord with one blow, then use the simulation to cover their tracks and kidnap the city lord.

But now, we must also take into account the other Soul Emperor who is with the city lord.

Late at night, the city lord and the Soul Emperor went to rest. The door to their room opened quietly, and as Soul Emperors, they were completely unaware.

Under Zhu Zhuqing's complicated gaze and Ning Rongrong's eye-roll, Huo Yuhao quietly slipped his hand under the covers and covered the female Soul Emperor's delicate body.

The female Soul Emperor muttered subconsciously, "You rascal, you can't even keep quiet at night."

Then it spiraled out of control, and they completely lost the ability to resist.

That's right, Huo Yuhao used the Succubus Body.

Huo Yuhao looked utterly hopeless. Although all female Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent are generally good-looking unless they have a special Martial Soul, this female Soul Emperor's Martial Soul is most likely one of those special ones.

With a face full of scars, a burly physique, and thick body hair all over his body, he looked like a chimpanzee.

Huo Yuhao had to mentally prepare himself for a long time before deciding to use the succubus body, and it must have been tough for the city lord next to him to sleep with her every day.

Huo Yuhao abducted the female Soul Emperor, while simultaneously gathering his mental energy to prepare for a mental attack.

At the same time, Zhu Zhuqing also gathered the power of ten Soul Venerables to attack the male Soul Emperor.

The moment the female Soul Emperor murmured, the male Soul Emperor groggily awoke. At that moment, a sense of crisis suddenly alerted him, but it was too late.

Huo Yuhao and Zhu Zhuqing's attacks came in an instant, severely injuring him in a flash.

Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing could unleash such a powerful attack, Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up, and her lively eyes darted around.

A tremendous roar echoed throughout the city lord's mansion. After knocking out both Soul Emperors, Huo Yuhao used simulation to disappear into the vast night.

As dawn broke, Huo Yuhao and his companions had already traveled over a hundred miles away.

Huo Yuhao, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong surrounded the two Soul Emperors. Huo Yuhao quickly used mental interference to guide the male Soul Emperor.

Do you know who's behind the slave-hunting group?

"I do not know."

Huo Yuhao frowned. "Don't know? How could that be?"

"Who are you?" Huo Yuhao asked quickly.

"I am the city lord's wife."

???

Huo Yuhao was shocked, and Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong were also greatly shocked.

"Are you a woman?"

"I am male!"

"Who is that city lord?"

The male Soul Emperor pointed to the female Soul Emperor beside him, whose face was full of scars.

Huo Yuhao's lips twitched. He could only say that these noble gentlemen were playing a fancy game.

He turned to look at the female Soul Emperor and asked, "Are you the City Lord?"

The female Soul Emperor, with seductive eyes, said, "Little brother, I am..."

Despite his discomfort, Huo Yuhao asked, "Who is the mastermind behind the slave-hunting group?"

"If you can let me experience that kind of bliss again, little brother, I'll tell you." The female Soul Emperor giggled, her fat jiggling.

Huo Yuhao snorted coldly, not tolerating this Soul Emperor, and activated Soul Interference.

"Tell me, who is the mastermind behind this?"

“It is Prince Xuexing,” Lord Oran obediently gave the answer.

Huo Yuhao revealed an expression of certainty. After asking a few questions, he severely injured the two, sealed their soul power, and bound them into a soul tool.

"Hey, is your strange ability really that powerful against female Soul Masters?" Ning Rongrong asked curiously, her eyes gleaming with eager anticipation. "Can I try it?"

Huo Yuhao glanced at Ning Rongrong; the girl's face seemed to be filled with the fearlessness of ignorance.

Girl, you are truly brave!

Huo Yuhao flatly refused, "No way."

Ning Rongrong puffed out her fair cheeks, looking quite adorable, but Huo Yuhao remained unmoved.

Ning Rongrong's bright eyes darted around beneath her long eyelashes as she said, "Then let me join your sect. I also want to experience what it feels like for a Great Soul Master like Zhu Qing to defeat a Soul Emperor. You can't deny that; you invited me before."

"Really?" Huo Yuhao asked with a puzzled expression.

This wasn't an act; he was genuinely puzzled at that moment—was Ning Rongrong brave or stupid, giving herself away so easily?

Ning Rongrong said, "Absolutely! If you dare to deny it, I'll have Grandpa Sword come and beat you up. You should know that my Grandpa Sword is a Title Douluo."

Huo Yuhao feigned reluctance, pondered for a long time, and finally agreed, "Alright, since you think so, I'll reluctantly grant you special permission to join our Spirit Pagoda."

Ning Rongrong immediately grabbed Huo Yuhao's hand with delight and said urgently, "Let me experience that secret technique that allows a Great Soul Master to defeat a Soul Emperor!"

Every support player dreams of dealing damage, and she's no exception.

"No." Huo Yuhao smiled, quite pleased with himself for easily luring Ning Rongrong into the sect. "Even if you join the sect, you can't experience it. You have to contribute to the sect first."

Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth and asked, "Then why is Zhu Qing allowed to do it?"

Huo Yuhao turned to look at the aloof girl and said with a smile, "That's because I like her, of course."

Zhu Zhuqing blushed as Huo Yuhao suddenly confessed his love to her, her fair face turning crimson, and her gaze drifted outward.
