On the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, within a crystal-clear stream.

Huo Yuhao held a sharpened branch, his expression serious as he stared at the fish darting through the stream.

As light flickered in Huo Yuhao's eyes, the nimble fish swimming through the water seemed to slow into motion in his vision.

Spotting the gills of a Green Fish, Huo Yuhao suddenly drove the branch in his hand forward.

With a soft pfft, the pointed tip of the branch pierced the Green Fish's gills with perfect accuracy.

With a splash, the Green Fish, over a foot long, was speared out of the water by Huo Yuhao and began flopping wildly on the ground.

However, one Green Fish would not be enough to eat. After all, a certain Pope beside Huo Yuhao was watching eagerly.

"Yuhao, are you done yet? I'm hungry~"

Bibi Dong looked at Huo Yuhao pitifully.

"I'll be done soon. Just wait!"

At Bibi Dong's urging, Huo Yuhao's hands moved faster and faster, until afterimages even appeared from his motions.

Before long, nearly ten Green Fish of varying sizes had been speared onto the shore.

Huo Yuhao immediately took out a large bucket from his Storage Soul Tool and put all the Green Fish inside. Then, one by one, he pressed down the fish, gutted them, and cleaned out their internal organs.

The knife in Huo Yuhao's hand was a specially made dagger from Spirit Hall. It was exceptionally sharp, making it easy to scrape off the scales and remove the gills.

After clearing away the scraps, Huo Yuhao began picking out the fish bones.

Removing fish bones was not particularly difficult for an old hand like Huo Yuhao. Any chef who had trained for over a decade would possess fine knife skills, let alone Huo Yuhao. In terms of knife work alone, if Huo Yuhao dared claim second place across the entire Douluo Continent, no one would dare claim first.

Bibi Dong watched Huo Yuhao from the side, her eyes full of Little Stars.

She had not expected this little fellow to be not only pretty and pleasant to listen to, but also so skilled with a knife. The more she watched, the more satisfied she became.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao had already placed all ten fish onto the Grilled Fish Rack. He had coated the roasted fish inside and out with a layer of seasoning he had prepared himself, while their bellies were stuffed full of Perilla Leaves.

A faint glow shone from Huo Yuhao's eyes, and then his hands became afterimages as they continuously turned the wooden skewers holding the roasted fish.

Before long, a rich fragrance wafted from the roasted fish. Every fish had turned Golden Yellow, their outer skins grilled to a crisp.

Bibi Dong had long since run out of patience. She picked up a roasted fish from the Grilled Fish Rack, blew on it to cool it, then opened her small mouth and gently took a bite.

With a crisp crunch, her teeth first broke through the crunchy skin. Then the smooth, tender white flesh filled her mouth, and Bibi Dong could not help letting out a satisfied hum.

"Mmm~ Delicious!"

Seeing Bibi Dong eating so happily, Huo Yuhao revealed a satisfied smile as well. For a chef, seeing someone silently devour the food he had made was the best possible recognition.

Seeing Bibi Dong eating with such enthusiasm, Huo Yuhao joined the battle too. Between the two of them, the fight quickly reached its end, and Huo Yuhao began cleaning up the aftermath.

However, at that moment, Huo Yuhao's Divine Sense suddenly sensed a familiar spiritual aura steadily moving toward them.

Feeling that cool, icy aura, Huo Yuhao's gaze shifted slightly. He then said to Bibi Dong, "Teacher, please conceal your aura."

Bibi Dong's Soul Power Level had already reached Level 96, and her combat power was off the charts. If the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm sensed Bibi Dong's aura, he might be too frightened to come over.

After hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Bibi Dong concealed her aura. Though she had questions, she did not ask them. After all, Bibi Dong knew that Huo Yuhao carried many secrets.

About half an hour later, a familiar, smug voice rang out in Huo Yuhao's mind. "Kid, what are you doing in the Star Dou Great Forest? Are you here looking for Soul Beasts?"

"Yes, I came to the Star Dou Great Forest to look for Soul Beasts."

Huo Yuhao's nose stung, and he picked up where the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had left off.

"Oh? Then are you looking for a hundred-year Soul Beast or a thousand-year Soul Beast?"

"Neither. What I'm looking for is the only Million-Year Soul Beast on the entire Douluo Continent, one who possesses both wisdom and handsomeness. He is a handsome and adorable Ice Silkworm. Do you know where he is?"

Huo Yuhao said, his eyes reddening.

After Huo Yuhao finished speaking, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm fell silent. However, Huo Yuhao could sense that he had not left.

Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes slightly as she stared in the direction where the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was hiding. That was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast whose Spiritual Power had reached the level of a Limit Douluo.

"Teacher, don't be nervous. He's one of us. He won't harm us."

Bibi Dong shot Huo Yuhao an annoyed glance. "You heartless little brat, just how many things are you hiding from me?"

Huo Yuhao wisely did not respond. When a woman was in a bad mood, one should never try to explain oneself to her. An explanation was concealment, and concealment was proof!!

About half an hour later, the ground before Huo Yuhao began cracking inch by inch. Then, a round, chubby Silkworm Baby burrowed out, its tiny eyes curiously examining Huo Yuhao.

However, when he saw Bibi Dong beside him, he was so startled that he nearly burrowed back underground. Still, perhaps because he sensed no hostility from Bibi Dong, and because he was truly curious about Huo Yuhao, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm finally relaxed.

"A human actually carries such a dense aura of mine, and even the auras of Snow Empress and Bingbing. Who exactly are you?"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm tilted his large head, his tiny eyes filled with enormous confusion.

Huo Yuhao did not speak. Instead, he concentrated his Spiritual Power, and then a stream of Spiritual Power carrying an icy aura burst from his fingertips.

"You... you actually know my Tianmeng's Finger! Who exactly are you?!"

"Brother Sky Dream, it's hard to explain in a short time. You should see for yourself!"

After Huo Yuhao spoke, he slightly mobilized a trace of Divine Sense and fused the memories between himself and the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm into a ball of light. The ball instantly entered the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's mind.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm slowly began examining Huo Yuhao's memories with his Spiritual Power.

Second by second, time passed. Only when the setting sun gradually shone upon the earth did the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm finally come back to himself.

Tian Meng stretched lazily, lay on the ground, and rubbed his round belly. "It's been so long since I've eaten anything. Yuhao, roast a few fish for me."
