Upon hearing Tianmeng's words, Huo Yuhao glanced at Lu Yi almost imperceptibly, and suddenly felt a surge of excitement within him.

His behavior was noticed by Lu Yi, which made Lu Yi feel strange.

Shouldn't you have helped Wang Dong photograph the Golden Mang's left arm bone for the sake of friendship?

Why are you suddenly interested in this soul bone?

At the same time, Lu Yi suddenly realized that the appearance of this soul bone was also somewhat strange.

Could it be that by intercepting the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue that originally belonged to Huo Yuhao, Huo Yuhao's luck was replenished by giving him a soul bone?

"Old Huo, I think this soul bone is perfect for you!" Lu Yi coaxed. "It has both mental and ice attributes; it feels like the academy specially picked it out for you?"

Praised by Lu Yi, Huo Yuhao, recalling his own feelings for Lu Yi, scratched his head somewhat shyly: "But soul bones are just too expensive. I don't know if I can exchange for this one?"

Huo Yuhao secretly told Lu Yi about obtaining the top-tier red card.

Through their long-term interactions, Huo Yuhao developed an extreme trust in Lu Yi. Apart from the secrets about Tianmeng and Bingdi, there was nothing else he couldn't tell Lu Yi.

Lu Yi was also extremely curious about his own guess, so he said, "Why don't we just ask the staff at the counter?"

Huo Yuhao nodded and turned to walk towards the counter.

As Lu Yi had expected, when Huo Yuhao asked the counter if he could take the Mirror Beast Soul Bone with him, the answer was yes.

Seeing Huo Yuhao nod excitedly at him, Lu Yi understood.

This soul bone was indeed a "carrot pit" prepared by Shrek Academy specifically for Huo Yuhao; no one else could take it away even if they had the money.

Therefore, they deliberately set an outrageous price, hoping to deter potential buyers, but Ning Tian's collecting obsession really doesn't follow the rules.

Having obtained the soul bone, Huo Yuhao was overwhelmed with excitement and couldn't wait to absorb it.

However, in order to ensure the safety of its core disciples, Jubaoge usually has a dedicated person responsible for delivering the soul bones to the academy, so Huo Yuhao doesn't need to worry about it.

"Lu Yi, is there anything else you want to buy? You can use my discount card; it gives you a 40% discount!"

Based on the principle of saving money wherever possible, Huo Yuhao suggested to Lu Yi that this would be a way to maximize savings by utilizing the rules.

Now that Lu Yi has fused with the metal of life, ordinary medicines that strengthen the body and nourish the vital energy are no longer of much use to him.

After browsing around, aside from the expensive and unsuitable items, only a few century-old blood ginseng plants piqued his interest.

The century-old blood ginseng is naturally far inferior to the crystal blood dragon ginseng that Tang San used to reshape Xiao Wu's body.

However, its advantage lies in the fact that some people cultivate it specifically, and its century-old medicinal effects are enough to keep the seriously injured alive, while also serving as a good medicine for repairing bodily damage.

Therefore, it appears in the formulas of many high-level healing pills.

Lu Yi doesn't know how to refine any pills, but he can brew magic potions.

This blood ginseng is much more potent than the healing herbs in the potion recipe, so Lu Yi decided to buy a few to try.

The price of the five plants reached 50,000 gold soul coins, but with Huo Yuhao's discount, they could be bought for 30,000 gold soul coins.

Lu Yi planned to first take one plant to brew a potion, and if that didn't work, he could resell it and make a small profit.

They also summoned Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinxuan, and had them buy some cultivation resources at a 40% discount, making a killing.

In the end, everyone gained something, except for Wang Dong, who came out empty-handed.

Apart from the golden left arm bone with the attribute of light, Wang Dong couldn't find anything else suitable for him.

However, even if Wang Dong emptied his pockets, he could only scrape together a fraction of the more than nine million gold soul coins he had.

"Let's go back!"

Huo Yuhao couldn't wait to get back to the dormitory and see the flying device that Lu Yi had mentioned.

Lu Yi shook his head, thinking that there might be assassins lying in ambush along the way.

It's best to discover and resolve the situation as soon as possible if you're being targeted by an assassin.

"The three of us still have some things to take care of. You and Wang Dong should go back first!" To prevent his two adopted sons from getting involved in danger, Lu Yi declined Huo Yuhao's suggestion, but still casually added, "Be careful on the road."

"Why have you suddenly become like my uncles?" Wang Dong was surprised that Lu Yi had become so fussy. He waved his hand casually and said, "Alright, let's go back first."

"Wait a minute!" Lu Yi suddenly called out to Huo Yuhao, "Old Huo, how wide is your mental detection sharing range now? Show me!"

Huo Yuhao was a little surprised by this sudden request, but he still nodded.

With the shared field of vision activated, details of the surrounding area flooded his mind. Lu Yi praised it and said, "That's enough."

As Huo Yuhao and his companion disappeared from sight, Zhou Sichen revealed an expectant expression: "Lu Yi, what other programs do I not know about later?"

"Of course, it's the most exciting program."

Lu Yi's face turned cold. Feeling the barely perceptible killing intent descending upon him, he gritted his teeth, "That's incredibly powerful!"

……

"Yuhao, didn't you think Lu Yi acted a little strange just now?"

On the way back to the academy, Wang Dong remarked, "He seems a bit eccentric."

"I don't think so?" Huo Yuhao didn't see anything wrong with it. "It's perfectly normal."

Wang Dong sensed that although Huo Yuhao possessed a mental-type martial soul, his perception was often abysmal and impossible to explain, so he simply changed the subject: "What did you get in exchange for today?"

"hey-hey--"

Huo Yuhao couldn't help but chuckle at the thought of Wang Dong's astonished expression: "A soul bone perfectly suited to my two martial soul attributes, worth fifteen million gold soul coins, and I got it for free!"

As expected, Wang Dong looked surprised and took a long time to recover.

"Yuhao, have you thought this through? If you continue like this, you won't be able to control your own destiny in the future!"

Huo Yuhao naturally understood the meaning behind Wang Dong's words, but he did not regret it.

"Of course I've thought it through. I don't think staying at the academy is so bad. After all, I still have grudges to settle, and without cultivation resources, when will I ever—"

Huo Yuhao paused, because Tianmeng had already begun to warn him in his mind.

"There's murderous intent coming from ahead!" Huo Yuhao warned calmly. "Get ready, let's go back!"

Wang Dong was also stunned. For some reason, he remembered Lu Yi's reminder: "Lu Yi can't possibly have prophetic abilities, can he?"

But now is definitely not the time to worry about that. As Huo Yuhao's countdown ended, Wang Dong instantly spread his wings, grabbed Huo Yuhao, and flew away.

Huo Yuhao also activated his soul power, launching a distress signal flare while simultaneously activating Hao Dong's power.

When the golden-red signal flare exploded high in the sky, many people in the academy and Shrek City witnessed this scene.

The assassins were also terrified upon seeing this. Instead of retreating, they accelerated their pursuit.

Because he had to carry Huo Yuhao's weight, Wang Dong's flight speed was still affected.

Left with no other choice, the two used all their skills, fighting and retreating as they flew rapidly toward Shrek City.

At the same time, Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan rushed to the scene as soon as they detected the signal.

"Yuhao, I'm here to help you!"
