Cooperation with the Star Luo Empire?

This auction mainly featured Soul Tool, but it was just an ordinary auction with no high-end items.

A level-six Soul Tool was the final item to be auctioned.

For Ordinary Soul Master, this might be considered rare, but in Huo Yuhao's eyes, it was nothing special.

The auction ended quickly.

After Huo Yuhao paid, the Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife was handed to him.

The black carving knife came into my hand, its icy touch traveling through my palm.

In that instant, he even sensed a hint of excitement in his usually composed teacher, Electrolux, within his Spirit Sea.

He was preparing to return to the hotel immediately so that his teacher could use his skills to reveal the true form of the Blade of Life.

But just then, the auctioneer named Qingya, who had been on stage, suddenly appeared and interrupted his plan.

"Young Master," she said with a professional smile, her voice soft and pleasant, "Our boss would like to invite you to a meeting."

Huo Yuhao paused, looking at the woman before him. He didn't rush to answer, but instead asked, "I don't think I know your boss, do I?"

"I'm not sure about that," she said softly. "But our boss said that if Young Master doesn't want to go see her in person, she can come to see you in person."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but laugh; he found it rather amusing.

He then thought for a moment and nodded.

"Alright, then lead the way."

"Yuhao!"

Suddenly, Wang Dong's shout came from behind.

Huo Yuhao turned his head and saw that Wang Dong and the others all had worried expressions on their faces and were staring intently at him.

He gave everyone a reassuring smile and said, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

He looked at Wang Yan one last time and said, "Teacher Wang, you should go back first. Don't worry about me."

Huo Yuhao followed Qingya all the way to the top floor of the auction house.

At the end of the corridor stood a magnificent red door.

Qingya stepped forward herself and slowly opened the large red door.

She stepped aside and gestured for Huo Yuhao to proceed.

Huo Yuhao glanced at her, then stepped inside.

The reason he dared to come alone was certainly not because he was so confident that no one would harm him here.

Rather, they are confident in their own abilities.

He now has the power to fight anyone below the level of Titled Douluo.

Above the Titled Douluo, even if he can't win, he can still escape.

It is because he has this confidence that he dares to be so composed.

As Huo Yuhao entered the office, his gaze quickly swept around the room.

The office is spacious and clean, with a simple yet stylish decor.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the dazzling night view of Star Luo City unfolds.

In the vast space, there was only one person.

It was a young woman standing by the window, her back to him.

Hearing footsteps, she turned around.

"My name is Xu Jiujiu," she said with a faint smile, her voice clear and melodious. "It's a pleasure to meet you!"

The one who summoned Huo Yuhao was none other than the princess of the Star Luo Empire.

She was simply carrying out her brother's "orders".

Huo Yuhao was slightly taken aback. He was somewhat surprised, not expecting that this so-called "boss" would actually be such a young and beautiful girl.

He smiled and said, "It seems you know me quite well, but regarding your situation, you only know one name."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiujiu immediately replied, "I am a princess of the Star Luo Empire, the younger sister of the current Star Luo Emperor, and also the owner of this auction house."

She paused, then looked directly at Huo Yuhao.

"Is there anything else you want to know?"

She hadn't intended to hide her identity.

Because she knew that to win people over, there was one very important thing... and that was to be sincere!

Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

Although he had guessed that the other party's identity was not simple, he did not expect that this young woman was actually a princess of the Star Luo Empire.

He immediately began to ponder the other party's purpose in wanting to see him this time.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's thoughtful expression, he spoke again Xu Jiujiu.

"Don't overthink it." Her voice was calm and composed. "Your talent is exceptional. The Empire simply wants to maintain good relations with you before you mature."

Huo Yuhao was surprised again, astonished by the directness of Xu Jiujiu.

This princess was surprisingly frank.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's expression, Xu Jiujiu then said, "Although the Star Luo Empire is not as strong as Shrek Academy, it has some resources that Shrek Academy does not possess."

Huo Yuhao chuckled softly, "I didn't expect Princess Jiujiu to be so frank."

Xu Jiujiu, she walked to the sofa, sat down gracefully, and gestured for Huo Yuhao to sit down and chat as well.

"There's no need to hide anything from intelligent people."

She had read Huo Yuhao's information and knew that although the boy was young, his maturity far surpassed that of his peers, so she did not treat him as a child.

"I know you are highly regarded at the Shrek Academy," her gaze fell on Huo Yuhao's face, "But if you don't want to stay at the academy in the future, you might as well come to my Star Luo Empire, where the empire will surely treat you as a revered figure."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao did not rush to answer.

He certainly didn't intend to stay at the Shrek Academy, but he also had no interest in becoming a retainer in the Star Luo Empire.

However, meeting the Star Luo Imperial Family today gave Huo Yuhao a thought.

He thought for a moment, then slowly said, "What happened after that is too far in the future; there's no point in talking about it now."

"However, for the time being, Her Highness the Princess and I could cooperate."

"Cooperate?"

For Xu Jiujiu, those beautiful eyes stared at Huo Yuhao, sparkling with curiosity.

"How exactly will we cooperate?"

Huo Yuhao didn't answer directly. He raised his hand and pointed, and several items appeared on the table in front of them.

They were several small and exquisite Soul Tool Ray Gun, each with a different shape, but all with smooth lines and a faint metallic luster.

As the behind-the-scenes owner of this auction house, Xu Jiujiu sometimes works as an auctioneer, so he is naturally familiar with Soul Tool.

With just one glance, she knew that these seemingly small Soul Tool Ray Gun in front of her were not simple.

She casually picked up a Soul Tool Ray Gun about the length of her forearm, slowly channeling Soul Power into it, feeling the operation of the Soul Tool Core.

A moment later, she looked up, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

"Level 4 Soul Tool"

She then looked at Huo Yuhao and asked, "The cooperation you mentioned, is it referring to these Soul Tool?"

Huo Yuhao nodded.

But Xu Jiujiu laughed, a laugh that carried a hint of disdain.

"Although the Star Luo Empire's Soul Tool are not as advanced as the Sun Moon Empire's, my auction house has no shortage of these things."

She was telling the truth; the Star Luo Empire had a stable channel for smuggling Soul Tool from the Sun Moon Empire Mingde Hall.

She really didn't care about those few level-four Soul Tool Ray Gun.

Huo Yuhao was not surprised by her reaction.

He smiled and said, "If Princess Jiujiu doesn't find these Soul Tool Ray Gun suitable..."

He paused.

"And what about these?"

As he spoke, he casually waved his hand.

Several cylindrical objects of varying lengths suddenly appeared on the ground beside them.

Those objects were entirely black, cone-shaped at one end, and covered with intricate patterns, exuding a chilling aura.

He stared at it for Xu Jiujiu.

Then... she froze instantly!

That stunningly beautiful face could no longer remain calm!

She jumped to her feet, her eyes wide, her voice filled with disbelief. "This is...!"

She took a deep breath. "Fixed Soul Guidance Shell?!"
