Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 589 To Go or Not to Go (Daily 10,000 words)

However, Huo Yuhao clearly cannot make use of this group of excellent soul-guiding workers right now, because he has higher priority things to do.

"You're going to the Heavenly Soul Empire?"

After the meeting, Elder Xuan was somewhat surprised to see Huo Yuhao standing in front of him and asked.

"Yes, I'll make a trip to Xingluo first to deliver the rare metals, and then I'll make a trip to Tianhun and Douling Empires. One reason is to contact the higher-ups of these two empires and see if we can finalize the rare metal deal. Besides that, I also plan to visit the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"Are you planning to go with Wang Dong'er?"

Elder Xuan smiled and looked at Huo Yuhao.

"hey-hey."

Huo Yuhao gave a somewhat shy smile: "There are only two or three months left until the competition. We should take advantage of the time to get these parts sorted out first, so we won't have any worries later."

After pondering for a moment, Elder Xuan finally nodded: "You're a fine kid, I agree to this. Consider it as giving you and Wang Dong some time for your honeymoon."

"But Yuhao."

Elder Xuan hesitated, then gave Huo Yuhao a deep look before speaking earnestly, "You've worked hard. Whatever you want to do, even if you fail, remember to come back a few days in advance. You are Elder Mu's last disciple, do you understand what I mean?"

Huo Yuhao was surprised that Elder Xuan saw through his thoughts so quickly, and he was speechless.

"I understand, Elder Xuan."

If Mu En's life was already on a countdown, then with the arrival of Niu Tian's brocade pouch, Huo Yuhao saw a turning point in Mu En's recovery.

He can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded.

This is the description of the Love-Sickness Grass by the Azure Bull Python in its letter.

Huo Yuhao wasn't sure which parts of the letter were true and which were false. The Azure Bull Python had already tried its best to remind him that there were many inaccuracies in the letter it had sent, but Huo Yuhao still had to follow the map.

Not only did he have to make this trip, but he also had to bring Wang Dong'er with him. Just the night before, when Huo Yuhao wanted to tell Wang Dong everything he knew, Wang Dong stopped him.

If you have anything to say, you can say it after you finish reading the brocade pouch. It seems that the Azure Bull Python had already anticipated this day.

It must be said that the Azure Bull Python's judgment was very correct. Even Huo Yuhao, before being awakened by the Azure Bull Python, never expected that the place that seemed the safest and most relaxing might actually be the most dangerous place for him.

Just then, Huo Yuhao suddenly sensed something and looked in one direction, just in time to see Wang Dong'er peeking out from the stairs and looking this way.

Upon seeing her, Huo Yuhao felt a warmth in his heart. He met her gaze with those large, pinkish-blue eyes and pointed outside.

The Sea God Pavilion is not a place for romance. The senses of the elders are so powerful that they would know about even the slightest disturbance.

Wang Dong'er nodded knowingly and tiptoed out of the Sea God Pavilion first.

Elder Xuan naturally saw it and smiled, "Go ahead."

Huo Yuhao blushed, nodded repeatedly, bid farewell to Elder Xuan, and walked outside.

Wang Dong'er waited at the entrance. Today, she wore a light blue dress, which complemented her long, pinkish-blue hair perfectly. Her stunning beauty overshadowed the otherwise beautiful scenery in front of the Sea God Pavilion. She was like a radiant sun, a source of light that illuminated everything simply by standing there.

"Here you go." Wang Dong'er took out a small cloth bag from somewhere. The outer cloth was white and spotless.

Huo Yuhao took the cloth bag and found it was warm. Opening it, he found two steamed buns and two peeled eggs inside. These were the eggs of a bird-like spirit beast; the egg whites were completely transparent, like crystal jelly. They were extremely nutritious. The two steamed buns also contained a side of vegetables and a slice of meat.

"Eat up, you've been sleeping in like me, now look what you've done, you're starving," Wang Dong'er said.

Huo Yuhao didn't stand on ceremony. He picked up a bird egg and put it in his mouth. What he ate wasn't important; what mattered was the sentiment. Wang Dong'er's thoughtfulness warmed his heart, making everything taste like a delicacy.

After quickly finishing the food Wang Dong'er brought him, Huo Yuhao took a few sips of the water pouch she handed him. With food in his stomach, he felt much better.

"It's not my fault. It's just too comfortable being with you after we got back to the academy."

Huo Yuhao did not deny it, and said it with a straight face.

"Let's go, come with me on a business trip."

"So eager?"

"Yes, I'm in a hurry."

In the short time it took to talk, the two of them had already flown out of Shrek Academy.

"Yuhao, what official business is in such a hurry?"

In mid-air, the wings of the Goddess of Light behind Wang Dong'er unfolded, and she and Huo Yuhao traveled rapidly through the air, sending a telepathic message as she asked.

"If we follow the story I gave the school, we'll be visiting the three great empires and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. But in addition to that, we also need to go to Sunset Forest to find a rare herb called the Heartbreak Love Grass."

"It is said that this celestial medicine has the power to bring the dead back to life, heal flesh and bone, and even rival the wonders of nature. Perhaps it will have a miraculous effect on Elder Mu's injuries."

"Elder Mu's birthday is approaching. Even with my God-Devouring Pill keeping him alive, he only has a month left at most."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong'er's expression immediately darkened. She had also studied under Elder Mu for a period of time and had a good impression of this kind old man.

Thinking of how Old Master Mu had just happily accepted the blanket she had woven not long ago, but would soon pass away, Wang Dong'er's eyes immediately reddened.

"Don't worry, the effects of the Heartbreak Grass might really be as Uncle Niu said. If that's the case, Elder Mu's injury is not entirely hopeless."

Wang Dong'er nodded, her worry and sorrow easing somewhat: "Yuhao, you just mentioned my great-father?"

Huo Yuhao didn't make a fuss, but silently activated his mental detection and passed the parchment that he had engraved in his memory to Wang Dong'er.

"I awakened my martial soul when I was three years old?"

Wang Dong'er was quite surprised after reading the first sentence, as she had no idea about it.

After quickly reading through the entire brown paper letter, Wang Dong'er's complexion grew increasingly worse.

"Yuhao, you can't go."

Wang Dong'er stopped Huo Yuhao decisively. Even Wang Dong'er herself had already seen through the falsehoods in the letter.

Huo Yuhao simply shook his head at this.

"Old Mu's injuries can't be delayed any longer."

"But, but..."

Wang Dong'er hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
