Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao obtains the Flame Emperor template

Chapter 46 Give this letter to the hall master first.

When Jiang Nannan's clear, tranquil eyes, filled with an indescribable tenderness, gazed intently at Huo Yuhao's much more handsome face.

Huo Yuhao was equally amazed by the change in Jiang Nannan's temperament.

When she took her mother to the city for medical treatment, the journey was arduous and dusty.

Perhaps due to the dust, her hair didn't look like a bright blonde, but rather a slightly darker orange, and her clothes were also covered in dust.

Now, Jiang Nannan is wearing a light purple dress, her face is flawless and her beauty is natural, and her long golden wavy hair is adorned with rabbit ear hair accessories.

It adds a unique charm to her gentle and graceful temperament.

Having witnessed the true value of the most beautiful girl in the outer courtyard, Huo Yuhao felt a little embarrassed to keep staring and looked away.

"Um, Sister Nan Nan, after I absorbed a spirit ring, I turned white."

Jiang Nannan nodded. When she saw Huo Yuhao look up at her for a while and then look away, she thought that Huo Yuhao was shy, so she couldn't help but smile.

He noticed a beautiful girl named Dugu Luo standing next to him with a pair of bright green eyes.

She walked slowly to Huo Yuhao's side, her long, slender legs under her skirt slightly bent, and gently bumped Huo Yuhao's shoulder with her soft shoulder.

"Yuhao, you've only been gone for less than a month and you've already brought back a beautiful girl. Aren't you going to introduce her?" Jiang Nannan said with a gentle smile and a soft tone.

Although Huo Yuhao absorbed the Snow Empress's soul and became taller, girls generally develop earlier than boys, so the tall Jiang Nannan had to bend down slightly to touch Huo Yuhao's shoulder with her own.

Hearing Jiang Nannan's slightly teasing words, Huo Yuhao blinked and began to introduce himself.

"Sister Nan Nan, her name is Dugu Luo. We are friends who have fought evil spirit masters together and explored places of opportunity together... We have shared hardships and prosperity."

"An evil spirit master?!"

Jiang Nannan's expression changed slightly, and her eyes revealed urgent concern as she placed her hand on Huo Yuhao's wrist to examine it.

Having cared for her mother for many years, she had mastered the basics of pulse diagnosis. By injecting a trace of soul power to assist in the examination, she could roughly understand the other person's physical condition.

"Don't worry, Sister Nan, I'm fine. That evil spirit master wasn't very professional at hitting me."

After all, the strongest Soul King specifically targets the team led by Xuanzi.

Huo Yuhao smiled and truthfully recounted the situation: "I wasn't hurt. That evil soul master couldn't even withstand one of my attacks."

Jiang Nannan breathed a sigh of relief after taking Huo Yuhao's pulse and finding that his physical condition was normal.

Meanwhile, Dugu Luo blinked her emerald green eyes, feeling as if she had heard the name Jiang Nannan somewhere before.

She could tell that Jiang Nannan and Huo Yuhao's relationship seemed unusual. Jiang Nannan, who had been standing at the city gate with her hands clasped in front of her abdomen and her eyes cold and aloof as she looked around, instantly transformed into joy and tenderness upon seeing Huo Yuhao.

Jiang Nannan patted her rather large clothes, and the tension on her face gradually faded.

"It's good that you're alright, Yuhao. Let's go home and see how your sister's rented place is."

"Okay."

The group entered the city gate. Xuan Ziwen gave Huo Yuhao one of the two recommendation letters he had written earlier, and told him how long he would stay in Tiandou City to pay respects to his ancestors. Then they bid each other farewell.

Xuan Ziwen waved to Huo Yuhao and instructed him, "Yuhao, once you've made up your mind, you can come find me at the place I told you about."

"Understood, Professor Xuan," Huo Yuhao replied, putting away the letter of recommendation.

Jiang Nannan asked curiously, "Did that teacher want to see you about something?"

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "It's nothing. They just realized I might be a promising talent and hope I can study at their school."

"That's good too. Yuhao, your talent is already quite good. I thought you were planning to apply to the Royal Academy of the Heavenly Soul Empire."

Jiang Nannan didn't mention Shrek Academy because Huo Yuhao had told her before that he had sold grilled fish in Shrek City.

He also knew several students from Shrek Academy, however, he did not enroll at Shrek Academy.

That means there are only two possibilities: either he doesn't have a recommendation letter from a city lord, or he feels that Shrek Academy is not suitable for him.

She preferred the latter, knowing that Huo Yuhao's talent was outstanding enough that if he knew some senior students, he could be introduced to the college teachers.

The only possibility is that Huo Yuhao felt his Spirit Eye Martial Soul wasn't being valued enough at Shrek Academy.

Of course, Jiang Nannan also supports Huo Yuhao's idea and will not deliberately try to persuade him to enter Shrek Academy.

"Yuhao, which college does that Teacher Xuan belong to?"

"Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy"

"ah??"

Jiang Nannan was taken aback; this result surprised her slightly. "Are you very interested in soul tools?"

"It's alright, mainly because my Spirit Eye Martial Soul does have an advantage in that academy."

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment. Come to think of it, Xuanzi was the one who encountered him first, but compared to Xuan Ziwen, his attitude towards him was completely different.

"Actually, during this trip, I also ran into Elder Xuan from Shrek Academy, who was leading a team to help his disciples hunt for spirit rings. Sister Nan, do you know Elder Xuan?"

A look of realization dawned on Jiang Nannan's eyes: "When I went to Shrek Academy to ask for leave a few days ago, Elder Xuan was giving a pre-departure safety speech."

"My best friend is missing her third spirit ring and she's with the team. I hope all the senior students can successfully hunt for their spirit rings and return to school safely."

As they walked and chatted, Jiang Nannan exchanged a few words with Dugu Luo and discovered that the latter had also been sought after by people from the Xuanming Sect.

After finding common ground, the two chatted for a long time, ultimately concluding that they were both fortunate to have met Yuhao.

Jiang Nannan looked at Dugu Luo, then started calculating again, and smiled, "Since you need some time to regulate the toxins accumulated in your body, why don't you stay with us for now? I'll pay seven-tenths of the rent, and you pay three-tenths, how about that?"

"Sister Nan, you still have to take care of Auntie. Am I going to be a burden to you?"

Based on their conversation, Dugu Luo, who is two months younger than Jiang Nannan, started calling her "Sister Nannan," just like Huo Yuhao.

In fact, Dugu Luo was somewhat tempted. Before, she had wandered around alone without a place to stay. Now, she could live with her new friends, which made her quite happy.

Jiang Nannan shook her head: "It's okay. My mother is mainly recuperating now, and she's slowly being able to walk on her own like a normal person. There won't be any inconvenience for you to move in."

"Yes, thank you for taking me in, Sister Nan." Dugu Luo nodded and replied happily.

Her impression of Nan Nan, who seemed aloof and ladylike, improved dramatically, and she felt that the future looked bright and promising.

She was also extremely grateful to Huo Yuhao, and she would definitely let him take the first thing when she entered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

"Yuhao, when you met Elder Xuan and those senior students, didn't Elder Xuan invite you to join Shrek Academy?"

If possible, Jiang Nannan really hopes that everyone will be in the same school in the future, so that they can see each other every day and won't miss each other.

During Huo Yuhao's absence, the image of that young man with a cold and unsmiling expression while treating his mother kept appearing in her mind, creating a striking contrast.

Huo Yuhao paused for a moment: "Elder Xuan said back then that my soul skills didn't have much offensive power... It seems he didn't acknowledge my talent."

Jiang Nannan also fell silent. After a short while, she looked at Huo Yuhao and asked softly, "Yuhao, are you planning to go to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy?"

"I'm considering it too."

"Could you stay a few more days before you leave?"

"If Sister Dugu is also staying here, will I have nowhere to stay if I go?"

"Don't worry about Yuhao, there are plenty of rooms."

Jiang Nannan didn't skimp on gold soul coins when renting the house this time. Compared to the money spent on treating her mother's illness, renting a house wasn't actually expensive, since it was just a place to rest and not related to a soul master's cultivation.

……

crunch--

"Mom, I'm back, and Yuhao is back too."

There was a rustling sound, probably the sound of someone putting on a coat and shoes. Then a door in the house opened, and a beautiful woman with almond-shaped eyes, delicate eyebrows, a graceful figure, and a mature demeanor slowly walked out.

When she saw Huo Yuhao's face, she was stunned for a moment. Even with her mature mindset, she couldn't help but show a bit of surprise. How come Yuhao looked as handsome as a little girl after going out for a while?

However, considering that Nan Nan and Yu Hao were both Soul Masters, she didn't understand the intricacies of the matter.

Moreover, Jiang's mother could tell that Yuhao's features were still those of the kind-hearted Yuhao she knew, so she stopped thinking about it and said with great concern, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back..."

Huo Yuhao quickly went to Jiang's mother's side and helped her sit on the sofa. "Auntie, how have you been feeling lately?"

"My child, thank you so much."

Jiang's mother gently held Huo Yuhao's hands. "He's much better now, and Nannan has been taking good care of him every day. He can now stroll around the park by himself."

Huo Yuhao inquired about some possible unusual situations, and the other party said there were none, so he felt relieved.

Dugu Luo also greeted Jiang's mother: "Hello, Auntie, my name is Dugu Luo, and I'm Nan Nan's friend."

Jiang Nannan gave her mother a brief account of Dugu Luo's situation.

Jiang's mother didn't mind and told Nannan to get along well with others, constantly reminding her that Dugu Luo was also a girl with a hard life, and that it would be best if they could help each other out if anything happened.

Dugu Luo was worried about causing trouble for Jiang Nannan and her daughter, but now that Jiang's mother seems understanding, she no longer has that concern.

Jiang Nannan then showed Huo Yuhao around the house, saying, "Yuhao, it's a large apartment with five bedrooms and a living room."

"This is the living room. You can refine pills here if you want. Just make sure to control the heat and don't burn anything."

Jiang Nannan led Huo Yuhao around the living room, then to the kitchen, and then to the bedrooms. There were three bedrooms on the left side of the house, with Jiang Nannan's in the middle.

"I sleep in this bedroom, and sometimes I sleep with my mother. Yuhao, you'll live in the bedroom next to mine in the back."

Then Jiang Nannan looked at Dugu Luo and said, "You can choose either of the two bedrooms across the street."

Dugu Luo nodded, having no objection to the bedroom allocation.

"Oh, right." Jiang Nannan suddenly remembered something, looked at Huo Yuhao, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and smiled gently.

"Yuhao, do you have any favorite meat dishes? I had your grilled fish before, so I'll make you some soup tonight so you can try my cooking."

Huo Yuhao said he is not a picky eater and can eat any meat or vegetable that everyone likes.

Then Jiang Nannan took out a large pile of meat and vegetables that she and her mother usually ate, went into the kitchen, and soon the sounds of chopping vegetables and the clanging of spatulas could be heard.

"Sister Nan Nan, let me help you." Seeing this, Dugu Luo naturally wouldn't just sit and wait for her meal. She called out and quickly ran into the kitchen.

……

Inside a room in Tiandou City, Xuan Ziwen took out a letter of recommendation and looked at a man in black in front of him.

The man was the owner of a chamber of commerce. The chamber was based in Mingdu, but had branches in various cities. Moreover, the chamber had a close cooperative relationship with Mingdetang.

If the soul masters of Mingde Hall are not satisfied with the soul tools they make, they will sell them to this merchant guild.

Of course, the soul tools sold to the Chamber of Commerce are mostly below level six. Even if they are failed products made by the Mingde Hall soul tool masters, those above level six are not allowed to enter the market of other countries.

This man was a Soul Master trained by the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, but he failed the Mingde Hall assessment later.

Xuan Ziwen placed the letter of recommendation on the table and pushed it towards the man.

"Your caravan is heading back to Mingdu today to purchase a batch of goods at Mingde Hall. Take this letter to the person I designate, and he will tell Master Kong to keep an eye on this student when he has time."

Caravans of the Sun and Moon caliber do not use horse-drawn carriages to transport goods in the traditional sense.

It takes a dozen or so advanced Soul Masters, each carrying a storage Soul Tool with enough space, to deploy their flying Soul Tools. A round trip can be completed in no time.

The man was somewhat flattered. He had long heard of Xuan Ziwen's reputation; she was a very popular figure in Mingde Hall.

He carefully put the letter away: "Don't worry, even if the entire caravan gets lost today, the letter won't be lost."

Xuan Ziwen nodded. He wasn't worried about the other party peeking or anything, since the contents of the envelope weren't anything important or confidential anyway.

It was simply a recommendation for students to study at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. But if we're talking about the most important thing, his own handwriting is probably the most valuable aspect.

The man walked out of the room, about to return to his caravan.

Xu Sheng quietly appeared from the side and blocked his way.

"Is there anything else you need?" the man asked.

Xu Sheng leaned closer to him: "When you go to Mingde Hall to purchase soul tools this time, show the Hall Master the recommendation letter that Xuan Ziwen gave you first."

The man pondered for a moment. It was time to repay the sect leader's kindness in nurturing him, and since Xu Sheng had brought it up, he naturally had no reason to refuse. He slowly nodded.

Xu Sheng smiled with satisfaction and patted him on the shoulder: "Young man, you have good judgment, you're a talent."
