Chapter 121 First Blood

Spirit Pagoda, Laboratory.

Huo Yuhao fiddled with the Dark Blue Silver King in his hand while listening to Ning Tian's report from the side.

"She was extremely agitated at the time. Although she tried to control herself, she still kept asking for information about the creator of the defensive soul tool, that is, you, teacher."

"Of course, I didn't reveal any information about you, teacher, and chose to refuse. However, that Miss Wang Dong'er directly revealed her identity as the young master of the Haotian Sect."

"I really don't know how to handle this, so I had no choice but to come to you, teacher."

Ning Tian spoke clearly and logically.

It wasn't that she didn't know how to handle it; it was more because the young master of the Haotian Sect wasn't looking for her.

Those level-one defensive soul tools were given to her by Huo Yuhao, who casually took them out of his storage soul tool when she was telling her teacher about her plans.

Therefore, the person that the young master of Haotian Sect found was naturally her teacher. It had nothing to do with her. Rather than handling it on her own, it was better to tell her teacher about the matter.

Is that so?

Huo Yuhao murmured to himself, this was an unexpected turn of events that he had not anticipated.

How could he not know about Wang Dong'er's situation?

In his previous life, Tang San split his daughter's soul in two. He used divine power to forcibly fill the split soul with one part, and then stuffed this part, which was barely restored with divine power, back into his daughter's body. After sealing her memories, he sent her to the lower realm, where she cultivated and grew into the Dong'er he knew.

The other part of his soul most likely merged into Qiu'er's soul during the time when he and Qiu'er were bound by fate.

In the end, after Qiu'er and Dong'er both died for him, Tang San merged their souls and became Tang Wutong, who bore the face of the person he loved!

With a slight fluctuation in his emotions, Huo Yuhao lowered his eyes, looking thoughtful.

Perhaps due to rebirth and the barrier of fate, he did not find that other half of Qiu'er's soul in this life.

However, in the morning, Huo Yuhao saw Wang Dong'er's soul, which was missing half but was forcibly sealed by the power of the Sea God and a wisp of divine consciousness to prevent it from dissipating!

Tang San was completely ignorant about the art of the soul! He had no idea what it meant to tear apart a soul at will!

However, despite Tang San's complete lack of intelligence, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but feel fortunate that this seemingly brainless guy actually possessed formidable strength.

He forcibly filled the missing part of the soul with the power of the sea god, and then left behind a wisp of divine consciousness at the level of a god-king, so that he could monitor the soul at any time and avoid problems.

Even more so, because of the existence of divine consciousness, Tang San could control Wang Dong'er at any time. Later, when he merged Dong'er and Qiu'er's souls, this part of divine consciousness would become like a steel imprint of thought, completely impossible to remove.

The power of the Sea God was naturally no problem for Huo Yuhao, who possessed the Sea God's position. Even a wisp of divine consciousness could be dealt with by simply calling on Elder Yi and the other two.

But what happens after that? The remaining half of the soul will inevitably dissipate naturally. If I want to save Dong'er, I must first find a way to repair Dong'er's soul.

but

"Tell her for now that I'm not in Shrek City, but if she has any requests, please pass them on to me."

Huo Yuhao's expression didn't change much; he simply put the Dark Blue Silver King aside.

"Okay, teacher."

Ning Tian nodded, then slowly retreated.

……

……

"Something's wrong with you."

In the evening, on the bed, Ice Emperor leaned against Huo Yuhao's chest and calmly stated his judgment.

"Something's not right with me?" Huo Yuhao, who was tending to Hyotei's body, was taken aback.

"Hmm, something's wrong with you. Something's very wrong."

Hesitation, doubt, guilt

It was exactly the same as when Huo Yuhao confessed to her that night.

"Did you see the person you like?"

Hyotei didn't mince words and asked their question directly.

Huo Yuhao instinctively wanted to hide it, but he saw that the girl's golden eyes were full of seriousness.

My emotions fluctuated slightly.

He suddenly realized that since their relationship had grown closer, he would unconsciously relax in front of Hyotei, and his emotional fluctuations would become more obvious, making him completely unaware of Hyotei's presence.

"Yes, I saw it." Huo Yuhao no longer chose to hide it.

"Do you still like her?" His hand unconsciously clenched slightly, and at this moment, Hyotei's coldness and pride were replaced by calm.

"I like it," Huo Yuhao replied.

like

Hyotei's breath hitched slightly, as if a heavy stone had suddenly pressed down on her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.

like

She repeated those two words to herself once more, a hint of jealousy creeping into her heart, but this jealousy was quickly replaced by confusion.

He likes her, but what about her?

After a moment of silence, Hyotei suddenly asked:

"Shouldn't you be happy to see the person you love again? Why are you so hesitant and guilty?"

Hyotei's tone remained calm, as if she were truly guiding Huo Yuhao from the perspective of an observer.

"I"

Huo Yuhao remained silent, unsure how to respond.

He didn't know how to face Dong'er, partly because although she didn't have memories of her previous life, he did, and he didn't know how to face Wang Dong'er.

After all, almost everyone around him noticed that something was wrong with him, including Qiu'er, who seemed to have sensed something and had been avoiding him lately.

Another reason is that he hasn't yet found a way to heal Dong'er's soul.

If Huo Yuhao were to meet Dong'er without permission, and Tang San's divine sense within Dong'er's soul were to perceive the aura of his Sea God status and the Sea God's Trident, he was unsure what would happen.

It's better to be safe than sorry; Huo Yuhao didn't want to gamble on such uncertainties.

Finally, it was because of them.

In this life, he was clearly more greedy, wanting to hold onto far too many people. This made him unconsciously feel a little guilty, not only towards Dong'er, but also towards them.

Huo Yuhao knew that his current confusion and hesitation were a test given to him by the Seed of Emotion.

His special divine test descended silently once again, deepening his emotions and gradually immersing him in it.

"Is it because you have other people you like that you feel guilty and dare not face it?"

Ice Empress shifted her position in Huo Yuhao's arms, raised her head, and looked at Huo Yuhao with deep, unsettling eyes, making Huo Yuhao feel inexplicably guilty.

"Yes"

Huo Yuhao answered.

Hyotei took a deep breath, then suddenly exerted force, completely shoving Huo Yuhao, who hadn't reacted yet.

With a hand resting on Huo Yuhao's shoulder, Ice Emperor's golden eyes fearlessly drew Huo Yuhao's gaze.

"So, do you like me?"

His words carried an undisguised seriousness and determination.

She is the Ice Emperor. Hundreds of thousands of years have instilled in her her own pride, and straightforwardness is her true nature.

In particular, Huo Yuhao's "I like you" without the slightest hesitation just now deeply stung her.

She didn't want to wait any longer.

I'm not sure if the next chapter will be censored, so I'm posting this as an author's note. There's one more chapter coming up.
