Douluo Continent: The Spirit-Eyed Detective Huo Yuhao

"Brakes? Doesn't this thing have brakes?" Wang Dong asked in a panic.

"Although there are some, it's better not to use those kinds of brakes here," Xiao Xiao said. As a writer, she was also very knowledgeable.

"Why? Where is it?" Wang Dong didn't understand Xiao Xiao's meaning.

"Ahhhh!"

The group fell off a small cliff, ending the farce.

"Pfft..." Wang Dong spat out the snow from his mouth and crawled out of the snow.

The others also got up one after another.

"Oh, what happened?" Huo Yuhao finally woke up.

"Excuse me... who are you...?" After everyone had gathered, Vina asked the question that had been bothering her: who were these strange guys?

A snow lotus unfolded in her hand, its gentle healing power easing the pain of the fall.

"Huh? Twin martial souls?" Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up as he immediately recognized Vina's hidden true martial soul.

Chapter 95 Snow Emperor's Treasure Vault

"A Body Martial Soul?" Huo Yuhao was curious. Under his mental detection, he discovered that the brain of the girl who was using the Snow Lotus Martial Soul was actually a rare Body Martial Soul.

Huo Yuhao hadn't seen many martial souls that used the body as a weapon, and those that used the brain as a weapon were even more attractive to him.

"What's wrong with this guy?" Vina was a little scared; Huo Yuhao's gaze made her uneasy.

"Your Highness, no... Vina!" Mu Xue caught up from behind.

Huo Yuhao used his mental powers to scan the surroundings and found that besides Mu Xue, there were several other guards who were probably Soul Saints. However, none of them made any rash moves, since they were currently in the Snow Kingdom and the person they were protecting, Vina, had not yet encountered any danger.

They were behaving so well because they had witnessed the scene of "Doctor Huodou beating up Long Xiaoyao" yesterday, and knew that the Snow Kingdom possessed extreme combat power, so they dared not be too reckless. They all entered as tourists, and Vina herself was unaware that they were secretly following her.

Moreover, Huo Yuhao and the others all had Shrek Academy badges on them, which made them feel a little more at ease.

"Let them all stand there in a daze for a while." Huo Yuhao activated Tianmeng's divine sense, casting an illusion on the guards that they were having a normal conversation.

At this moment, apart from Huo Yuhao and the beasts within his body, everyone else was stunned.

"Domain expansion".

Huo Yuhao opened his supercomputing domain, and a deep blue, magic circle-like semi-circular domain enveloped Vina.

"Analysis".

Huo Yuhao lightly tapped Vina's finger, and various data surged from her body.

In just a moment, Huo Yuhao understood Vina's martial soul better than Vina herself.

"Is this how the brain martial soul is structured...?" Huo Yuhao scanned it and recorded all the data related to Vina's brain.

He then withdrew his domain and dispelled the illusions surrounding everyone.

The dazed looks in everyone's eyes returned to normal, and everything seemed unchanged.

Vina was still maintaining the healing spell of the Snow Lotus Martial Soul. She felt as if she had been in a daze for a moment. She shook her head and looked up to see Wang Dong's face approaching.

Vina blushed instantly, wondering what Wang Dong was going to do.

"Your martial spirit is very beautiful, thank you," Wang Dong said earnestly, staring at her.

"No, no, no...you're welcome," Vina replied shyly.

Wang Dong awkwardly strode back to Huo Yuhao's side: "See, I've mastered the manners you taught me."

"Yes, quite an improvement." Huo Yuhao nodded. Perhaps due to his personality or his childhood environment, Wang Dong was somewhat lacking in manners, but he has changed a lot now.

"Having collected her martial soul data, I really should give her something in return. What should I give her?" The information about her brain martial soul was quite useful to him, and Huo Yuhao felt that he couldn't just take Vina's data for nothing.

"Oh right, let's get a treasure from Xue Di for her." Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered that after they helped Xue Di drive away Long Xiaoyao, Xue Di promised him that he could choose a treasure from her collection.

However, he didn't particularly want anything, so he didn't bother to choose.

………………

"Hello, children." The doctor, Huodou, whose face was covered by a black robe and who looked quite sinister, greeted them, but his tone was surprisingly kind.

"..."

Wang Dong and the others were at a loss for words. They had just finished introducing themselves to their new friend Vina when they unexpectedly encountered the strongest doctor in the Snow Country.

"Hello." Wang Dong's trained politeness allowed her to respond quickly, even though she was terrified.

At the same time, his eyes couldn't help but search for something to rely on, trying to find where Huo Yuhao was, only to discover that Huo Yuhao had disappeared again.

"Where did this guy run off to again?!"

Little did she know that Huo Yuhao was right in front of her.

Because Huo Yuhao deliberately amplified his undead aura to disguise himself, his appearance was extremely terrifying to those who hadn't seen Doctor Huo Dou much.

The Snow Country people, including Bai Zhen, are not afraid because their fanatical worship of him has made them ignore everything else.

Or rather, they might be scared, but they actually enjoy the thrill...

"Don't be afraid, kids, I'm just here to find her." Huo Yuhao pointed at Vina and laughed, "Go play, there's a skating competition over there."

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the other side of the snow-capped mountain.

"You guys go first, I... I'll go with Mr. Huodou..." Vina was so scared she was about to cry, looking like she was about to be kidnapped by an evil spirit master. But despite her fear, she decided to let Wang Dong and the others go first.

"No, how can we let you take our friend away so easily!" Wang Dong resolutely protected Vina.

“Wang Dong.” Vina was moved.

"This guy is such a busybody..." Huo Yuhao was speechless. He learned it all from the hot-blooded comics in Douluo Weekly.

“Wang Dong, Senior Huo Dou should be a good person. Don’t judge him by his aura and appearance alone. Look at him, isn’t it obvious that he’s talking to us so nicely despite his strength?” Bei Bei stopped Wang Dong.

“Oh right.” Wang Dong was taken aback.

Huo Yuhao didn't want to say anything more, so he raised his hand and used the teleportation array to send them away.

"Vina!" Mu Xue and the hidden Soul Saints were still here.

"You can wait here for a while." Huo Yuhao used ice and snow mixed with mental control to restrain them, freezing them in place.

"What are you going to do?" Vina asked timidly, feeling like she was about to die.

Huo Yuhao picked up Vina, concealed the surrounding scenery with the wind and snow, and led her into the teleportation array.

"I'm not a spy, please don't kill me. I just came here for tourism and to see the strength of this country. Mr. Huo Dou is so strong, please don't hold it against a junior like me." Vina kept explaining. Although her Brain Martial Soul made her mind quite sharp most of the time, she was completely unable to think normally under the influence of Huo Yuhao's terrifying aura.

"We've arrived," Huo Yuhao said.

"Wow...so beautiful!" Vina's eyes lit up when she saw a dreamy white snow castle, momentarily forgetting that she was still suspected of being kidnapped.

"Mr. Huodou... why did you bring me here?" she asked, puzzled. This dreamlike place was clearly not meant to harm her.

"Follow me." Huo Yuhao led her a few steps forward, and a gust of wind and snow lifted them both up, flying them into the snow castle.

"You've arrived." Xue Di nodded to Huo Yuhao, then looked at Vina, "And who is this human?"

"I'll give her the chance to choose a treasure," Huo Yuhao said frankly.

"No problem." Xue Di didn't care; she just needed to repay Huo Yuhao's favor.

She led the two to the back of the snow castle, where there was a frozen lake that looked like a fairyland.

In a snow-covered world, there is a frozen lake with no snow accumulation and a surface as clean as a mirror.

Under Huo Yuhao's spiritual eyes, this was not just a frozen lake; at the bottom of the lake lay tens of thousands of treasures, frozen here for countless millennia.

It is likely that the Snow Emperor collected these items during his 700,000-year lifespan.

"It's laughable that despite collecting so many treasures, I don't have a single one that can help me overcome this difficulty," the Snow Empress lamented.

"Indeed." Huo Yuhao nodded in agreement. He had already expected that although there were many treasures here, especially ice-attribute treasures, not many of them could be of great use to Title Douluo or above, or to soul beasts of more than 200,000 years. As for Snow Empress, a ferocious beast of 700,000 years, they were completely meaningless.

The only thing that was somewhat useful was the snow lotus that allowed her to transform into a human, and she hid it here.

Of course, he wouldn't be allowed to take the snow lotus; that was agreed upon beforehand.

"Go pick something you like and go," Huo Yuhao said to Vina.

Chapter 96 Snow Empress's Transformation

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Vina couldn't help but swallow hard.

She didn't know why Mr. Huodou had brought her here, nor did she know who the icy white-haired beauty was, but she knew that this might be a great opportunity for her.

Vina looked at the frozen lake, where a dazzling array of rare and precious materials lay beneath the transparent surface—it was practically a showcase of ice-attribute treasures.

“Well… I’ll go then.” Vina was still a little unsure.

"Go ahead," Huo Yuhao waved.

"Yes."

Vina bowed to Huo Yuhao and Xue Di, then turned and ran towards the frozen lake.

"Snow Emperor."

As soon as Vina left, Ice Emperor jumped out of Huo Yuhao's body.

"Bing'er." Even the usually cold face of the Snow Emperor showed a rare smile.

"Are you really going to transform into a human?" Hyotei suddenly asked.

"Why do you ask that?" Xue Di asked, puzzled. Hadn't this already been discussed?

"After much thought, I think it's better for you to join us in making a pact with him. The risk of becoming human is too great. Even if you succeed in becoming human, the chance of becoming a god is slim. In my opinion, Yuhao becoming a god is almost inevitable. He is a person with great fortune," Ice Emperor said, expressing his thoughts.

"Although I've never wanted to interfere with your thoughts, I still can't help but worry."

"Heh." Xue Di reached out and patted her head. "Why didn't you say so sooner? I'm glad you care about me. But don't worry, since I've already decided to become human, I'm naturally prepared."

Huo Yuhao and Tian Mengyi watched quietly from the side, without interrupting their conversation.

“But I wasn’t prepared… I wasn’t prepared to watch you die like that…” Hyotei continued impatiently, “You only have about a thousand years left before your time is up, and your lifespan will be even shorter after you become human. If you don’t become a god, you’ll only live for three or four hundred years at most, and then you’ll have nothing left.”

"Bing'er, I understand everything you've said," Xue Di gently comforted Bing Di. "But now that I've made up my mind, I won't change it easily."
