Volume 41, Chapter 566.2: My Target is the Dou Ling Empire (1/2)
Huo Yuhao experienced an inexplicably blissful feeling when he was sliding down from the wall again. Ultimately, his Yin Yang Complement soul cores were still very useful. The pain he felt from being thrown by the seal disappeared much faster than before. The pain was nothing if he could be kissed like this all the time. No matter how strong the seal was, he did not have to fear it, especially when his skin was now unbelievably thick after absorbing the Dragon Pill.
Hehehe! My future father-in-law, let’s see how much longer your seal can hold me back.
Huo Yuhao regained his balance and stood up as he flashed a cheeky smile at Tang Wutong.
“What are you trying to do?” Tang Wutong could sense that Huo Yuhao had some naughty ideas in his head.
Huo Yuhao giggled and said, “Nothing much. I was just thinking that I deserved to be punished a few more times, since you wanted to punish me earlier.”
Before Tang Wutong could react, Huo Yuhao pounced in her direction. Tang Wutong tried to evade, but Huo Yuhao was able to accurately determine the direction she was heading with his Spiritual Detection. Before she could flee, he had already hugged her and planted his lips on hers.
“Mhhmm…” Tang Wutong was trying to break away from his clutches. However, Huo Yuhao was once again tossed away by the seal in the very next instant. The powerful seal had once again “punished” him.
This time round, Huo Yuhao leaped up before he had even reached the floor, and pounced towards Tang Wutong again. “Let’s try again! I need a tougher punishment!”
“No!” Tang Wutong had learned her lesson, as she immediately activated her Instant Teleportation Left Leg Bone and flickered away.
However, just when she was about to reappear at another corner of the room, she saw a person with a sly smile before her.
Both of them shared the same soul skill, and had formerly fused their martial souls. After acquiring his second soul core, Huo Yuhao had a much deeper mastery of spatial power. Hence, he was able to use his Spiritual Detection and sensitivity towards the spatial power around him to accurately determine where Tang Wutong would reappear.
Just when Tang Wutong thought she was about to be forcefully kissed by Huo Yuhao again, Huo Yuhao suddenly stopped in front of her and grabbed her shoulders. He said, “Wutong, let’s stop the punishment here. I have received news from Ju Zi that they’re planning to attack the Dou Ling Empire. However, as of now, we are unable to convince the Elders in the Academy about her plan. I think we have no choice but to make a trip ourselves. Is eldest senior brother back?”
Tang Wutong said, “He is back. I heard that the Star Luo Empire was a lot more receptive. They left some of their elite troops in their land even though they’re still sending some of their people over.”
Huo Yuhao said, “We can’t care about what they plan to do anymore. I will head over and send my regards to eldest senior brother before we leave. We need to head over to the Dou Ling Empire and see if we can stop the Sun Moon Empire from attacking them. Ju Zi will not be able to bring too many of her troops, because she has to keep some of them here to preserve their fighting power on the main battlefield, and to continue deceiving us. She’ll most likely send her soul engineer legions to attack the weakest point in the Dou Ling Empire’s lines.”
Tang Wutong answered, “Alright. You can go ahead and look for eldest senior brother. I’ll pack my stuff, and we’ll leave right afterward.”
“Okay.” Huo Yuhao replied as he turned around and stepped out of the room. However, he suddenly stopped moving as he turned around and looked at Tang Wutong. He asked gently, “Are you tired?”
Tang Wutong shook her head gently and replied, “Nope. As long as I’m with you, it’s okay to be a little more tired than usual. However, just promise me that you won’t risk your life when I’m not around. Do you know how scared I was when I wasn’t with you during that period of time? I was so afraid that I would lose you when I came back only to find out that you weren’t here. I heard that even Di Tian came after you while I was away.”
Huo Yuhao brushed his hand through Tang Wutong’s long violet hair and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll never risk my life like this again. I only did this because I was confident that I could pull it off. Right now, Di Tian is entangled in his own affairs, and will not be looking for me in the near future. However, I must share a piece of good news with you. I have managed to remove the reverse scale that Di Tian planted on me during my breakthrough. Alright, I’ll take my leave. You can pack your stuff in the meantime.”
“Okay.” Tang Wutong answered as Huo Yuhao left the room and went to look for Bei Bei.
He was looking for Bei Bei not only for updates on the Star Luo Empire, but also because of Tang Ya. Now that Tang Ya was beginning her recovery process, her own Bluesilver Grass martial soul was naturally reawakened. However, she had not been able to completely fuse with the Bluesilver Emperor. After all, she had not yet reached a bottleneck in her cultivation, and could only allow the Bluesilver Emperor to become her Spirit when she finally reached Rank 90. Huo Yuhao was going to check on her current situation. This was especially important since he had taken the Life Guardian Sword away from her.
“Eldest senior brother.” Huo Yuhao did not use his Spiritual Detection to check on the situation in Bei Bei’s room. After all, this would infringe on Bei Bei and Tang Ya’s privacy. His voice was not particularly loud, but it was still able to penetrate through the door.
“Eh? Little junior brother.” After hearing Huo Yuhao’s voice, Huo Yuhao was able to hear someone putting on their clothes in the room. Following which, he heard a dissatisfied female grunt. It was obvious that someone in the room was displeased with being interrupted.
It did not take too long before Bei Bei stepped out of the room. He did not seem to be tired at all. In fact, he seemed to have a radiant glow around him.
