Death God Envoy, Passed Down Through the Ages

Gu Yuena left the workshop deep in thought.

Blacksmiths used forging to refine metal essence.

The Federation refined essence in its own way.

Huo Yuhao used Soul Tool Arrays to refine metal essence.

From the very beginning, Huo Yuhao had been indirectly telling her something.

There was never only one path!

Huo Yuhao's words had benefited her greatly. He had explained the various advantages and disadvantages clearly. Now, her thoughts of learning forging were no longer a spur-of-the-moment idea, but a carefully considered decision after clearly seeing its prospects.

Still, when she thought of Huo Yuhao's suggestion to use the power of Heavenly Forging for forging, Gu Yuena could not help but marvel.

Yuhao's ideas were always so unusual.

Was this the insight possessed by a God King who wandered the Mortal World?

Mm, learn!

What should this new forging method be called?

Elemental Forging Method?

No, this had been thought up by two gods together. It should be called—Divine Forging!

A gentle smile appeared on Gu Yuena's lips. As she pondered this, she looked up and saw Teacher Cheng Yixuan standing in front of the design room, watching her with a smile.

"..."

She had been so focused on talking with Yuhao that she had forgotten to inform her teacher.

Gu Yuena obediently entered the design room, prepared to be scolded. Yet after Cheng Yixuan closed the door, she smiled and asked, "How are things going between you and Yuhao?"

Gu Yuena froze for a moment, finding the question strange, but she still answered, "Not bad."

"Not bad?" Cheng Yixuan murmured. A helpless smile appeared on her face. "It seems you're not aware of it."

A girl who designed things had picked up a Forging Hammer for a boy... No matter how one looked at it, something was off.

Cheng Yixuan walked over to Gu Yuena, crouched down, and looked at her gently.

"You took a Forging Hammer to see Yuhao just now, didn't you? What did he say?"

Gu Yuena was slightly puzzled, but considering their relationship, she still concealed all the important matters and carefully gave a brief explanation.

After listening, Cheng Yixuan fell into thought.

"...He's being a little reserved with you, but you're both still young, so it's fine."

That was good. Anyone President Xia thought highly of would have no problems with their character. He was not one of those people who enjoyed others' devotion, so she could rest easy.

She had finally gained one... half-genius disciple, and she cared greatly about Gu Yuena. She certainly did not want her to be hurt.

Seeing Cheng Yixuan's relieved expression, Gu Yuena secretly wondered whether she had misunderstood something.

"All right, enough about that. Let me check on your studies." Cheng Yixuan stood up, watching Gu Yuena with a smile on her lips.

"I wonder who taught this child. Usually, she's so cool and distant, but sometimes she's inexplicably a little silly. She's so lovable."

When the time was about right, Huo Yuhao bid farewell to President Li Yucheng and set off back to the Academy with Gu Yuena.

Li Yucheng had now resigned from his position as president, leaving him with plenty of time to study Soul Tools with Huo Yuhao. The two had conducted extensive research on the Soul Power Amplifier, and Li Yucheng was gradually getting the hang of it. The Level Seven Soul Power Amplifier was nearly complete.

Huo Yuhao and Li Yucheng were both very satisfied with this.

Only President Xia, who had inherited the president's position, voiced her dissatisfaction, but no one paid her any attention. After all, her wife's heart was now focused entirely on Gu Yuena...

As Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena walked down the street amid the flow of people, Huo Yuhao suddenly used Mental Sharing to say to Gu Yuena, "Go right."

"Mm."

Gu Yuena nodded lightly, glanced toward a spot behind them, then looked toward somewhere in the sky. Together with Huo Yuhao, she headed into an alley on the right, avoiding the crowd.

Inside the dark, secluded alley, tall sealed walls stood on both sides. The noise of the streets gradually faded away, leaving only the echoes of their footsteps in the silence.

"Hehehe, little ones, would you like to come with me?"

A sinister voice echoed through the alley, sending chills down one's spine. Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena turned toward the sound and saw a sinister-looking man in a black robe watching them with interest. Four Soul Rings circled around him.

These were two geniuses highly valued by the Mecha Master Association. At most, they were merely two Soul Grandmasters, completely no match for him. Taking them back to report in would be good enough. If the operation on the other side failed, they could even use them to set a trap and make a second capture.

What a lucky day!

Within the Sea of Consciousness, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm looked at this Four Rings Soul Ancestor and sighed.

"Your Excellency truly is... unfortunate!"

With Four Rings cultivation, he was facing two Strong Experts undergoing Re-cultivation alone, and one of them was even a god. I, Great Emperor Tian Meng, am willing to call you the strongest Evil Soul Master!

Mm, the strongest in bad luck!

Unlike Tian Meng's ease, Luo Ziyang, the Soul Douluo secretly protecting Huo Yuhao, frowned.

Hua Yichen had arranged for him to protect Huo Yuhao years ago. Whenever Huo Yuhao went out, he would accompany him, though he had rarely needed to act. But today, he might have to make a move.

Evil Soul Masters had strange methods. Even though he had confidence in Huo Yuhao, he could not let down his guard.

After all, Shrek Academy had already provided a negative example!

Ten Thousand Years Ago, an Evil Soul Master known as the Death God Envoy created the greatest record in Evil Soul Master history!

The Death God Envoy, a Soul King, had faced two generations of Shrek's Seven Monsters. Relying on his Corpse Explosion Technique, he had forcibly killed two Soul Kings, blown one Soul Emperor and one Soul King into crippling injuries, and left the remaining Seven Monsters either heavily or lightly injured.

In the end, he had even escaped from a Level 98 Super Douluo by using hostages. It was simply outrageous!

When he appeared again, it was on the battlefield between the Sun Moon Empire and Shrek Academy. At the time, the Sun Moon Empire was cooperating with the Holy Spirit Cult. He stood on the Sun Moon Empire's side and loudly mocked Shrek Academy with his past achievements, enraging the other side beyond measure. Yet because of the war, they found it difficult to settle accounts with him.

However, because the Death God Envoy's achievements were too astounding, when the Sun Moon Empire eventually betrayed the Holy Spirit Cult, they listed him as a priority target and killed him.

But his earlier achievements had been preserved within certain factions for various reasons. They became a cautionary example when dealing with Evil Soul Masters, telling later generations that they must never be careless when facing them.

Mm, the Spirit Pagoda was one of the factions that had retained those records... After all, the Spirit Pagoda loved to "learn from history."

"I hope Yuhao won't be careless..."

As Luo Ziyang thought this, he wanted to move closer so he could act quickly if necessary and avoid becoming a second Taotie Douluo. Yet he saw Huo Yuhao's figure flash, and he had already arrived before the Evil Soul Master, while the latter was still staring at empty air.

"..."

All right, it seemed his worries had been unnecessary. Yuhao had used Mental Interference Domain right from the start.

On the other side, having arrived before the Evil Soul Master, a trace of golden light flashed through Huo Yuhao's blue eyes as he mobilized his vast Spiritual Power.

Mental Shock!

At the same time, his Soul Rings appeared, and Simulation unfolded, altering the course of the battle to a certain extent.

The Evil Soul Master was still staring at the air with a cold smile when he suddenly felt intense pain in his Sea of Consciousness. The vast difference in their Spiritual Power left him unable to resist. His eyes rolled back, and he fainted on the spot.

Before losing consciousness, he seemed to see three purple Soul Rings circling Huo Yuhao, and he completely understood the situation.

This did not seem to be merely a genius of the Mecha Master Association...

After doing all this, Huo Yuhao gave the Evil Soul Master a deep look. He did not continue acting, instead murmuring into the air, "Senior, I'll leave him to you."

Luo Ziyang appeared before Huo Yuhao with a face full of emotion. He nodded at Gu Yuena in greeting, then smiled at Huo Yuhao.

"Not bad. You weren't careless."

After saying that, he did not linger. He seized the Evil Soul Master and vanished, though he did not go far from Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena. Only after escorting them back to the Academy did he take the Evil Soul Master to the Spirit Pagoda.
