Huo Gua: I Hate Qiankun Love-Seeking Valley

Time flies, and two more days have passed.

Shrek remained as calm as ever, except that Xuanzi and the others had not yet returned.

As for Zhou Huan, he had a pleasant first day, shamelessly staying at Zhang Lexuan's house, where their affection was practically flying everywhere.

The sugar content is excessive, which is something I cannot disclose to outsiders.

The next day, Zhou Huan, who had become somewhat overbearing, was kicked out by his Senior Disciple Sister, who told him to calm down and focus on his cultivation instead of having too many ideas.

So, the miserable Zhou Huan could only stay in his dormitory and silently cultivate.

During this period, Zhou Huan absorbed two more Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, further increasing his Soul Power at level Level 94.

Now that only seventeen strands of Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow remain, Zhou Huan estimates that they can only support his cultivation up to level ninety-six at most.

However, with Zhou Huan's Dual Soul Cores, Five-Colored Godhead, and outrageous Soul Ring Configuration, his strength should be comparable to Limit Douluo when he reaches level 96, but probably still not as good as Di Tian, who is at the Half-God level.

To defeat Di Tian, Zhou Huan felt he would need to be at least level 98.

Of course, these are all just guesses. After all, Zhou Huan has never actually fought Limit Douluo. These are just estimates based on his previous perception of Long Xiaoyao's aura.

The most important thing now is to continue absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow to increase our strength.

On the second day of Zhou Huan's diligent cultivation, Xuanzi and his group finally returned.

However, they did not return together. The Shrek's higher-ups, including Xuanzi, returned to the academy in the morning, while Huo Gua and the others arrived at Sea God Island in the afternoon.

Unfortunately, this team is still missing two people.

Neither Wang Qiu'er nor Wang Dong'er were there.

This originally had nothing to do with Zhou Huan, and he had already anticipated this situation, since God King Tang was still quite trustworthy when it came to being inhuman.

Just as Zhou Huan was enjoying a period of physical and mental well-being and clear thinking during his cultivation, an uninvited guest arrived at his door.

That's right, Huo Gua back again.

This... Zhou Huan really didn't expect it.

In the living room, out of courtesy to guests, Zhou Huan poured Huo Gua a cup of hot tea before asking, "Squad leader, did you come to see me about something?"

Seeing Huo Gua's sorrowful and miserable appearance, Zhou Huan sighed inwardly, "Alas, poor Son of Destiny."

Unexpectedly, Huo Gua's first words were. "Zhou Huan, I'm sorry."

Huh? What the heck?

Zhou Huan was completely bewildered. What are you apologizing to me for?

However, after a moment, Zhou Huan seemed to realize something and asked, "You mean Qiu'er's matter?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Gua nodded. "She's your teammate, she should have gone with you. If it weren't for my request, Qiu'er wouldn't have... In Qiankun Love-Seeking Valley, Dong'er and Qiu'er wouldn't have..."

At this point, Huo Gua clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with regret, pain, and even a hint of anger.

Huh? Anger?

Zhou Huan's eyes lit up, but he quickly suppressed the slight excitement in his heart.

Then, Zhou Huan said, "Qiu'er going with you was her choice. You don't need to apologize to me. Besides, Qiu'er is fine now, isn't she? She just left. She never belonged here in the first place."

Upon hearing this, Huo Gua looked at Zhou Huan in surprise, his tone becoming slurred. "You... you know where Qiu'er went? You know who she is?"

Zhou Huan calmly took a sip of tea and said, "I know, but I won't tell you."

Upon hearing this, Huo Gua paused, his voice becoming somewhat deep. "Why?"

Zhou Huan remained calm and said, "Why? The reason is simple. Even if I told you, what could you do? Go find her? Or are you going to be with her? What about Wang Dong'er? I heard she's just in a deep sleep."

Zhou Huan's barrage of questions left Huo Gua speechless.

After a long silence, Huo Gua finally said, "I just wanted to make sure she was safe."

Zhou Huan looked at Huo Gua, speechless, but still said, "She'll be safer without you."

Huo Gua: "..."

Seeing Huo Gua speechless, Zhou Huan said nothing more. He knew that Huo Gua was definitely not there to apologize. After all, Wang Qiu'er was just a teammate and captain to him. Even if something had happened to Wang Qiu'er, she didn't need to come to apologize to him, Zhou Huan.

Moreover, this happened while Wang Dong'er was asleep, Huo Gua was suffering a great blow to his spirits and was in a very low mood.

Sure enough, the next moment, Huo Gua took a deep breath and continued to ask, "Zhou Huan, you seemed to have determined from the beginning that there was a problem to the west of Mingdu. Even though Xuan Zi had scouted it beforehand, you still refused to go there and instead suggested splitting the troops into two groups. Why?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan simply smiled faintly, put down his teacup, and said, "No reason. Xu Tianran isn't stupid. If there's no problem on the west side, then something truly strange would happen."

However, Huo Gua was clearly not going to be convinced by this reason alone. "I don't believe you would so categorically reject Xuan Zi's evacuation plan just because of this reason."

Zhou Huan glanced at Huo Gua with interest and chuckled, "Oh? Does the class monitor think I have any other reasons?"

Huo Gua stared intently into Zhou Huan's eyes and said, word by word, "You knew about the existence of Qiankun Love-Seeking Valley before."

Wow, Huo Gua increased!

Or is it that Electrolux really didn't die, and thus figured something out?

After all, Ice Empress and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm really don't have that kind of intelligence, not to mention the Titan Snow Demon King's Soul Spirit that has lost all its memories.

When faced with Huo Gua's direct gaze, Zhou Huan's expression shifted, his eyes fixed on Huo Gua's deep pupils like Abyss, as if piercing through his Sea of Consciousness.

In just half a second, Huo Gua's expression changed drastically. He stared at Zhou Huan in disbelief, his voice stammering, "You, you, how could you?"

You have to understand, he's Mental Attribute Soul Master with Body Martial Soul, and he's even consumed the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew. His eye Martial Soul has undergone two silver-level evolutions. How could it be that just a glance from him made it seem like the other party could see right through him?

If Elder Yi hadn't blocked his Sea of Consciousness at the crucial moment, Huo Gua would have felt as if he were naked in front of Zhou Huan.

In fact, what Huo Gua didn't know was that Zhou Huan had already seen through the deception in that very instant.

Even though Electrolux's shielding of Huo Gua's Sea of Consciousness was timely, his power was ultimately different from that of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

Having God's perspective, Zhou Huan already knew who the tenants were in Huo Gua's Sea of Consciousness, so how could he not guess who had just made the move?

It's good that the Archmage is still alive, Electrolux. That makes things more interesting.

At this moment, facing Huo Gua's near-level nine shock, Zhou Huan casually said, "What's possible or impossible? Spiritual Power isn't something only those with a spiritual Martial Soul can cultivate. You know, I'm just a theorist, so isn't it normal for me to know a bit more about Spiritual Power cultivation?"

Huo Gua: "..." Normal my foot! Normal my foot!

Huo Gua was genuinely frightened when Zhou Huan almost saw through his Sea of Consciousness. It held all his secrets, including the fact that even Wang Dong'er didn't know about Electrolux.

For a moment, Huo Gua even forgot that he had come to Zhou Huan to inquire about the Qiankun Love-Seeking Valley.

However, Zhou Huan hadn't forgotten, so he continued, "Whether I know about Qiankun Love-Seeking Valley or not is not important. What's important is that it has already happened, and what are your thoughts on that place?"

When the topic of Qiankun Love-Seeking Valley was brought up again, Huo Gua's expression turned grim. He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely, "I hate that place."

Very good!

Zhou Huan. It seemed Huo Gua hadn't been completely humiliated; his fighting spirit was still intact. Was it because Electrolux was still alive?

Then, Huo Gua continued in a low voice, "I hate Qiankun Love-Seeking Valley, so I need to know everything about it, which is why I've come to ask you. Zhou Huan, can you tell me?"
