Heading to Shrek City, Something Happened!

Na'er didn't say anything, but her purple eyes were filled with shock.

Huo Yuhao's cultivation speed was truly beyond her comprehension.

An eleven-year-old Soul King is an unheard-of existence, even in the Shrek Academy or in those ancient families with a history of tens of thousands of years.

She glanced at Gu Yue discreetly and secretly sent her a telepathic message.

"Look at them, they've already reached the Soul King level through normal cultivation."

"I am Soul Ancestor, and you are merely a Soul Elder. Where is the dignity of our Silver Dragon King?"

Gu Yue remained silent for a moment, her dark eyes revealing no emotion.

But her voice still came back. "Yuhao... he can't be viewed as a normal person."

Na'er snorted, her voice carrying a hint of teasing. "Indeed, someone you've set your sights on is no ordinary person."

Gu Yue ignored her sarcastic remarks.

She looked at Huo Yuhao and said calmly, "Then I'll go back with you."

Huo Yuhao nodded, which was taken as an agreement.

But Na'er, standing to the side, wouldn't have it. She suddenly raised her head, looked at Gu Yue, and her face was full of disbelief.

"You're not going to stay with me?!"

Gu Yue glanced at her. "You've explored the whole of Eastsea City, it's time to go back to Shrek City."

"You..."

Na'er pointed at Gu Yue, but didn't say a word for a long time.

Her pretty little face flushed red, and in the end she just let out a heavy snort and sat down angrily.

A moment later, her voice echoed in Gu Yue's mind again, carrying a hint of gritted teeth.

"You really value romance over friendship!"

Gu Yue still ignored her, and seeing that she was so unyielding, Na'er couldn't help but send a telepathic message.

"However, you need to improve your Soul Power cultivation quickly, otherwise you won't be worthy of Huo Yuhao, a Soul King."

This time, although Gu Yue did not reply, she seriously considered the sentence.

Her Soul Power has actually increased significantly beyond what was originally planned, making her one of the top figures among the younger generation.

But now that Huo Yuhao, this "freak," is around, she seems ordinary.

Na'er's statement is quite correct.

With Huo Yuhao's excellent example as a precedent, perhaps I can be a little bolder.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the glass curtain wall of the Spirit Pagoda, casting dappled shadows on the floor of the lobby.

When Huo Yuhao appeared at the entrance of the hall, Gu Yue and Na'er were already waiting there.

The two sat on the sofa near the window, creating a picturesque scene.

Gu Yue remained calm, her black hair flowing like a waterfall. She leaned quietly against the back of the sofa, her gaze fixed on the window, lost in thought.

Na'er, on the other hand, was completely different. Her big purple eyes darted around, looking here and there, with a mischievous and clever look on them.

The two have very different personalities, yet both are equally captivating.

Even though they did nothing but sit there, anyone who noticed them, regardless of gender, couldn't help but take a second look.

Huo Yuhao walked over, and when Gu Yue saw him, the corners of her mouth curved slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Na'er stood up abruptly and complained, "You've finally arrived!"

Seeing her hurried appearance, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but smile.

"Didn't you say you didn't want to go back to Shrek City? Why do you look so anxious?"

Na'er rolled her eyes at him. "What's the point of me staying here if no one's keeping me company? I'd rather go back to the academy."

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Don't rush, there's still one person who hasn't arrived yet."

Na'er asked directly, "Who else?"

Huo Yuhao smiled mysteriously, "You'll find out soon enough."

In fact, it didn't take long. Just a few minutes after Huo Yuhao sat down, a figure rushed over.

Na'er looked at him, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. "Tang Wulin, are you going to Shrek City too?"

That's right, the person Huo Yuhao was waiting for was Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin nodded and replied with a smile, "I haven't been to the number one city on the continent yet. This is a good opportunity to go and see it with you."

With the bloodline crisis temporarily resolved, Tang Wulin no longer needs to start frantically cultivating as soon as he opens his eyes every day.

He was really exhausted during that period.

Every day is a race against time, and we dare not relax for a moment.

Now that I can finally catch my breath, I naturally want to go out for a walk.

Upon hearing that Huo Yuhao was returning to Shrek City, he offered to go with him.

The Spirit Pagoda's special vehicle took them to the Soul Train Station, where the four bought tickets, boarded the train, and embarked on their journey to Shrek City.

Eastsea City is located in the southeast of the continent. Even at the speed of the Soul Train, it would take most of a day to reach Shrek City.

The four of them boarded the bus at nine in the morning, and by the time they arrived in Shrek City, it should have been evening.

The train traveled smoothly on the tracks, and the scenery outside the window rushed by.

Fields, villages, forests, mountains...

The various scenes receded one by one, only to reappear one by one.

Around noon, the four of them ate lunch in the car.

The meals provided on the train weren't very nutritious, but surprisingly, they tasted alright.

The meal was simple, but piping hot, so it was edible.

Gu Yue and Huo Yuhao finished eating quickly.

But Tang Wulin and Na'er were still engrossed in their meal.

The waiter stood to the side, his gaze gradually becoming strange.

She glanced at the dozen or so empty bowls piled up beside them, then at their continued ravenous eating, and her lips twitched slightly.

These two kids, who look no more than teenagers, can eat more than adults!

Bowl after bowl, as if they could never get enough to eat.

Tang Wulin and Na'er, these two "big eaters," actually started having a competition on the train.

Neither of them was willing to admit defeat, and they buried themselves in their food, their posture resembling a silent war.

Huo Yuhao sat to the side and did not stop them.

He simply watched quietly, a faint smile playing on his lips, treating it as a performance.

But just then... his expression suddenly changed!

The smile in those eyes vanished instantly, replaced by a solemn expression.

"Stop eating!"

Tang Wulin and Na'er both looked up at Huo Yuhao.

The two of them still had noodles dangling from their mouths, looking somewhat comical, but at that moment neither of them had time to laugh.

Huo Yuhao's expression was serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Something happened in the car!"

The words had barely left his mouth...

A sudden explosion rang out!

"Boom!"

The sound wasn't too loud, and the train continued to run smoothly without being affected.

But then, a series of screams reached Huo Yuhao and the others' ears.

The expressions of the group all changed; none of them had expected to encounter such a thing while taking a ride.

Soul Train are among the safest modes of transportation on the continent. Petty theft is rare, let alone such heinous acts of violence in public.

Huo Yuhao did not hesitate and immediately activated the Spirit Detection Sharing.

That invisible Divine Power instantly spread out, enveloping the entire train.

The situation on the train became clear in the minds of the four people in the next instant.

Just two carriages away from the dining car, four middle-aged men were wielding Soul Tool Ray Gun and launching an indiscriminate attack.

Red rays crisscrossed the carriage, and screams echoed wherever they passed.

Some people collapsed in their seats, some huddled in the aisle, and some ran forward desperately but were hit in the back by the rays and fell straight down.

Blood stained the floor of the carriage.

In the blink of an eye, many have died or been injured.

I don't know who these people are, nor what their purpose is.

But at this moment, they seem to be killing simply for the sake of killing.

That ruthlessness, that madness, is chilling.

Tang Wulin was the first to stand up, and with a quick movement of his feet, he was about to rush forward.

Just then, Huo Yuhao appeared in front of him, blocking his way.

Tang Wulin looked at him in surprise, not understanding why he was stopping him.

Huo Yuhao said in a deep voice, "Don't be impulsive!"

Tang Wulin said urgently, "Those four people aren't very powerful; I can handle them by myself!"

Through Spirit Detection, he could clearly sense the Soul Power fluctuations of the four bandits, none of whom exceeded level 30.

With his cultivation level, dealing with four people who were not even Soul Elder was more than enough for him.

But Huo Yuhao shook his head, his voice calm and steady. "There are accompanying Soul Master protecting us in the car, enough to deal with them."

He paused, looking directly at Tang Wulin: "I'm worried... there are other enemies."
