Douluo Continent: The Great Summoner Huo Yuhao

Chapter 101 Meow Meow Meow

Why not seize this opportunity in a more direct and bolder way?

"I'm sorry, the reason I became a reserve substitute is because the original designated member made a mistake and was eliminated. Of course, I personally knew nothing about that matter, and our Zhu family was not involved. Otherwise, the academy would not have made me a reserve substitute. I hope you won't misunderstand me, Captain."

She told Huo Yuhao directly that neither she nor the Zhu family were involved, thus distancing herself from the conversation and indicating that there was a misunderstanding between them to ensure the topic could continue.

Then find an opportunity to ask him for guidance, turning official business into personal business without realizing it.

"Misunderstanding? Why would I misunderstand you? And why did you bring up the Zhu family? Wasn't you made the reserve substitute because you're so talented?"

Huo Yuhao was completely bewildered, as the designated next Shrek Seven Devils.

He really didn't know what had happened during the selection process.

They were also curious as to why, given Dai Huabin's abilities, the Lan sisters and Zhu Lu were able to participate, but Young Master Dai was not.

However, since it was the academy's decision, Huo Yuhao didn't pay much attention to it.

Now, hearing what Zhu Lu said, it seems there's more to the story, and it's related to him.

"Didn't the captain know that the Dai family sent assassins to try and kill you in Shrek City?" Oh, he didn't know.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's attention was instantly drawn to Zhu Lu.

Did Dai Huabin intend to kill Huo Yuhao, or did he have someone else do it?

The gazes of the women in the harem toward Zhu Lu gradually turned cold.

Given the relationship between the Dai and Zhu families, can they really distance themselves from this now?

If nothing unexpected happens, Zhu Lu and the Zhu family will also be enemies on the side of Dai Huabin and the Dai family in the future.

"Me?——" Huo Yuhao was startled. Didn't they say that his identity would be kept secret after he put on the mask?

They also claimed to have altered Dai Huabin's cognition and memories, and even that they themselves were using the power of the White Tiger.

How exactly was their identity exposed?

Tang San is lying to him.

"Yes, it should have happened around the time of the Treasure Appreciation Event, and the academy has already dealt with it seriously. I'm really sorry, although our two families have had some past relations, the Dai family has always been very chauvinistic."

"In the eyes of the world, our Zhu family has always been an accomplice to evil. Fortunately, the academy saw through the truth this time and gave me the opportunity to win honor for the academy."

Zhu Lu's cold voice carried a hint of helplessness, although part of her grievance was an act to gain Huo Yuhao's sympathy.

But in a sense, this is also true.

Alas, family friends—

She was forced into this situation, which has left her in such a passive position with no freedom whatsoever.

In the end, what benefits will you gain?

By then, even the position of Duke will probably belong to Dai Yueheng. Following Dai Lao Er (Dai the Second) is truly the worst luck imaginable.

The more I thought about it, the more wronged I felt, and the angrier I became.

Zhu Lu felt a lump in her throat and tears welled up uncontrollably.

She quickly raised her hand to wipe away her tears, looking at Huo Yuhao pitifully.

"Captain, I only regret that I am not up to par and could not repay the opportunity given by the academy. If possible, I would like to ask you some questions about cultivation and combat, is that alright? Of course, I know that you have a lot of things to do all day, Captain, I can just wait quietly by your side and will not disturb you until you are finished."

Keep busy, keep busy, preferably until the dead of night. When you're alone with your partner then, some physical contact during the guidance of cultivation is inevitable.

After a while, he'll definitely be distracted by Huo Yuhao's advances.

Just to be on the safe side, when we return to the academy, I'll find another opportunity to give her some aphrodisiacs. Once we've made it a done deal, I'll say that Dai Lao Er gave her the drugs, thus arousing Huo Yuhao's sense of justice and protective instincts.

Who cares about that damn engagement? Just follow Huo Yuhao and be his little kitten.

Don't blame me, Dai Huabin. People always have to strive for their own happiness. If you want to court death and provoke others, don't drag me and the Zhu family into it. Don't worry, although your Dai family has always been indifferent to the women of our Zhu family, even if you follow Huo Yuhao, I won't kick you when you're down. At most, I'll just watch from the sidelines.

After imagining the future, Zhu Lu felt even more strongly that she should seize this hard-won opportunity.

If they fail to catch her, once Huo Yuhao takes revenge on the Dai family, all that will be left for her and the Zhu family will likely be a mess.

Or perhaps Huo Yuhao was too lazy to distinguish between the two families so clearly, and simply treated the Zhu family like a roadside tree, kicking it to death.

At this time, Zhu Lu was still unaware of Huo Yuhao's true identity and the feud between Huo Yun'er and the Duchess.

If she knew about that past, she would probably want to kill the Dai and Zhu families.

Huo Yuhao had no idea why Zhu Lu was crying for no reason; he only thought that she was feeling unwilling and powerless at the moment.

However, according to Zhu Lu, his identity was not exposed, which relieved him.

It's good that he wasn't exposed. Back then, when Tang San asked him to use Dai Yuhao's identity to take revenge, he had to hold his nose and endure the physical discomfort.

If his identity were truly revealed, the constraints of society would probably disgust him to death.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao was very grateful for Zhu Lu's intelligence. Moreover, after being reminded by her, he realized that if he wanted to target Dai Huabin and the Dai family again, he would need a reason that could be made public.

As a key member of the Dai-Zhu alliance, Zhu Lu's current statement is clearly an attempt to extricate her and the Zhu family from the conflict with the Dai family.

This is why he is becoming more and more powerful and his influence is gradually increasing.

Yes, now Zhu Lu wants to befriend him.

Would you like to give me a gift privately?

He didn't want any private connections with the Zhu family, since the Zhu family wasn't that big and couldn't offer anything of value.

perhaps----

Zhu Lu is actually quite good-looking.

If the reason given is that they have been targeting Dai Huabin and his family because of their rivalry over a woman, can this explanation be convincing?

With so many girls around me now, I feel like no one would question my womanizing persona.

A charming and romantic genius boy who leaves a trail of broken hearts—it makes perfect sense, doesn't it?

"It's only right for classmates to help each other. Zhu Lu is such a lovely girl, and I've never misunderstood a charming girl."

Huo Yuhao smiled at Zhu Lushi.

But this laugh immediately stunned everyone.

In everyone's perception, Huo Yuhao is indeed surrounded by many girls.

But it seems that this guy has never praised anyone on his own initiative, nor has he shown any interest in anyone.

At least Ning Tian kept comforting himself, thinking that maybe everyone's feelings for Huo Yuhao were unrequited.

Perhaps Huo Yuhao was so focused on cultivation that he didn't have any thoughts about romantic relationships.

And now they're telling her that Huo Yuhao is actually a Casanova?!

Why isn't he interested in me?

That's backed by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!

Does he really only accept women who throw themselves at him?

Ning Tian began to question his life. Wasn't it said that men preferred and respected self-respecting and reserved girls?

Her family taught and nurtured her from a young age to become an excellent wife and mother, the kind of woman who is the breadwinner and homemaker.
