Sheep Number One

Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei shouldered their packs overnight, traveling beneath the stars and moon toward the Far North Land.

One did it for love.

Bei Bei's gaze was firm as he said inwardly, Xiao Ya, wait for me!

Although Bei Bei did not know where Tang Ya had gone, he knew he had to help Tang Ya find herbs that could heal disfigurement. In the future, he would personally give them to Tang Ya and have Little Brother Huo help restore her appearance.

The other also did it for love.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was already beside himself with excitement in Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Sea, wriggling back and forth like a maggot.

"Bing Bing, hehe, my Bing Bing..."

In the original plot, everything had gone smoothly, so Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt this wave was guaranteed.

Only Huo Yuhao was doing it for his career.

"The Fortune of the Far North Land... I wonder what it looks like. Slurp~"

When Bei Bei took Huo Yuhao out of Shrek City, Huo Yuhao keenly noticed that Bei Bei's Fortune had actually changed!

Huo Yuhao watched as, the farther Bei Bei moved from Shrek City, part of Bei Bei's Fortune actually shattered and began spilling outward.

Huo Yuhao hurriedly activated the Fate Stealing and Dragon Transformation Technique, gathering the Fortune that had not yet completely dispersed into his own Fortune.

He was terrified of wasting it.

Huo Yuhao: thank you for nature's gift.

This time, Bei Bei's Fortune spilling away proved that if Bei Bei left Shrek City at this moment, he would lose an opportunity. Judging from how much Fortune was spilling away, the opportunity Bei Bei lost was neither huge nor small.

But Huo Yuhao did not disdain it. However small a mosquito's leg was, it was still meat.

At the same time.

Inside Shrek Academy.

The dormitory building.

"Bei Bei, if you've got the guts to steal a woman, then you've got the guts to come out! Don't hide in your dorm and keep quiet, I know you're in there!"

The loud shout shattered the nighttime peace of the dormitory building.

"Yelling for ghosts instead of sleeping in the middle of the night?"

"Damn it, good thing I wasn't rewarding myself, or I'd definitely have scared something wrong!"

"The people downstairs got lucky. I wasn't that lucky..."

"Upstairs, aren't you a girl?"

"Mm, so now I can't take it out anymore."

"???"

Many students, male and female alike, poked their heads out of the windows and looked outside.

Watching drama was human nature. Soul masters were no different.

They discovered that the one shouting outside the dormitory building was a dignified-looking boy with thick brows, tiger-like eyes, a straight nose, and a square mouth. He wore a black school uniform and was actually a sixth-year student.

However, at this moment, this sixth-year student's face was full of anger, his eyes were red-rimmed, and he looked as if he had suffered some enormous grievance.

"Who's that? What's he yelling about?"

"Isn't that Xu San Shi, one of the Outer Academy's twin stars? He seems to be calling for the other twin star, Bei Bei."

"What's going on? It sounds like Bei Bei stole Xu San Shi's woman? I remember Xu San Shi likes Jiang Nannan from fourth year, right? Isn't Jiang Nannan an aloof goddess?"

"Heh, then you don't know, do you? Some women look aloof, but in reality, they play wilder than anyone."

"Isn't Bei Bei a couple with Tang Ya? I saw them dating by Sea God Lake last week."

"He got tired of playing with Tang Ya, obviously~"

"Pah, so Bei Bei was actually a scumbag! I really misjudged him! I'm siding with Senior Xu this round!"

"Senior Xu, charge bravely! Your junior supports you!"

"Senior, you can come charge at your junior sister! Junior sister plays even wilder!"

"..."

Jiang Nannan, who was also paying attention to the situation outside, listened as the discussion outside grew more and more off track. Finally, she could not hold back. She opened the window and poured down a basin of foot-washing water.

Xu San Shi hurriedly dodged, then looked over angrily. "Who was... Ah, it's Nannan!"

In an instant, Xu San Shi regretted it. He should not have dodged that basin of water just now.

Who cared what part of her it had washed?

Jiang Nannan spoke with a cold face. "Xu San Shi, don't call me in such a disgusting way! Also, why are you calling for Bei Bei in the middle of the night? What do you mean Bei Bei stole your woman? Explain yourself!"

The moment this was mentioned, Xu San Shi felt even more aggrieved. He grew anxious and could not help taking two steps forward.

"Nannan, I saw it all. You gave Bei Bei a love letter in the little grove! I squatted in the academy waiting for him all afternoon, but he never showed up. Is he afraid to face me? Is he hiding?"

In an instant, the eyes of the melon-eating crowd all focused on Jiang Nannan.

Jiang Nannan froze, then was left utterly speechless.

This Xu San Shi not only had wishful thinking, his imagination was also rather rich.

Jiang Nannan angrily smashed the foot basin in her hands down at him, but Xu San Shi instinctively caught it carefully.

Jiang Nannan's eyelids twitched at the sight. She suspected that if she spat, Xu San Shi would have to open his mouth below to catch it.

In truth, Jiang Nannan did not want to deal with Xu San Shi, but this matter had to be explained clearly, because it involved the reputations of her, Tang Ya, and Bei Bei.

Enduring her disgust, Jiang Nannan said to Xu San Shi, "Stop spreading rumors! What love letter? That letter was something Tang Ya asked me to pass to Bei Bei! Tang Ya had something to do and left. After Bei Bei read the letter, he also left the academy. How could he be hiding from you? That is the truth! Are you satisfied?"

"Impossible! With so many people around, why would Tang Ya specifically ask you to pass on the letter?" Xu San Shi did not believe it.

"Is your brain broken? Tang Ya is my roommate! You even asked Tang Ya to help you deliver love letters before!" Jiang Nannan was too lazy to deal with Xu San Shi anymore. She directly shut the window and pulled the curtain closed while she was at it.

Xu San Shi was dumbfounded, then started chuckling foolishly. "So it was a misunderstanding. I knew it. My Nannan doesn't even look at me, so there's even less chance she'd look at Bei Bei, that married man."

The melon-eating crowd was collectively speechless: that was it?

At this moment, Xu San Shi felt relieved inside.

"Good thing Bei Bei and Tang Ya aren't here. Otherwise, because of this misunderstanding, today's matter wouldn't have ended peacefully. With Tang Ya's unreasonable personality, I might even have had to compensate them with something. I might even have had to pay a Profound Water Pill."

But Xu San Shi soon grew gloomy again. His recklessness had angered Jiang Nannan again.

The path of pursuit had become even more difficult.

Just then, Xu San Shi saw Jiang Nannan's foot basin in his hands and suddenly had an idea in his desperation. He shouted loudly toward Jiang Nannan's room, "Nannan, I'll come up and bring you your foot basin."

"I don't want it. Get lost!" Jiang Nannan's icy voice came from behind the closed window.

Xu San Shi froze, then actually started chuckling foolishly again.

"Nannan actually gave me a gift. She has me in her heart! I must take this foot basin back and put it by my bed!"

Watching Xu San Shi's departing back, and the way he practically bounced as he walked...

All the onlookers fell silent.

Disperse, disperse.

There was nothing worth watching about a Simp Sheep.

In the girls' dormitory.

At this moment, Jiang Nannan's face was full of heartache as she angrily slapped her own hand a few times.

"Serves you right for having itchy hands. Great, now I'm down a foot basin! That cost several Copper Soul Coins!"

But Xu San Shi's behavior had really been too infuriating!

Besides, Jiang Nannan did not want to use anything Xu San Shi had touched ever again.

After reflecting for a moment on her impulsiveness, Jiang Nannan looked toward Tang Ya's bed and could not help falling into a daze.

"Xiao Ya, what exactly happened to you? And where did you go?"

Jiang Nannan and Tang Ya were not only roommates, but also close friends.

In truth, Jiang Nannan knew that Tang Ya's situation was not as simple as she had just said.

Whether it was Tang Ya wearing a mask or Bei Bei's haggard face, both proved that they must have encountered something before.

Before Tang Ya left, she had even given all her daily necessities to Jiang Nannan, giving off a strong sense of settling her affairs before death.

This made Jiang Nannan feel somewhat uneasy. She had a premonition that Tang Ya might never come back.

Jiang Nannan had wanted to make Tang Ya stay, but she had not succeeded.

What she could do was bury everything in her heart, silently pray for Tang Ya, and wait until she had strength in the future before investigating the truth.

"Xiao Ya, you must not let anything happen to you."

Outside Shrek City.

After Huo Yuhao absorbed the Fortune Bei Bei had lost, he nodded in satisfaction.

Yet just then, Bei Bei's Fortune actually changed again.

The Shrek Auspicious Cloud above Bei Bei's Fortune suddenly sent down a large amount of Fortune for Bei Bei, filling in the Fortune Bei Bei had lost and even making Bei Bei's total Fortune surpass what it had been before.

Huo Yuhao was stunned. "This..."

Bei Bei looked at Huo Yuhao in confusion. "Little Brother Huo, why do you keep looking at the top of my head?"

"I seemed to see a flash of spiritual light shoot from the top of Big Brother Bei Bei's head into the clouds. I feel that on this journey, Big Brother Bei Bei will surely be like a flood dragon entering the sea, a fierce tiger returning to the mountains!" Huo Yuhao said whatever came to mind.

"Little Brother Huo, thank you for the auspicious words." Bei Bei was clearly very happy. "If we really can find herbs to treat Xiao Ya and help restore her appearance, I, your big brother, will remember this kindness for life."

"Big Brother Bei Bei, don't worry. Leave this matter to your little brother. An eleven-year veteran physician absolutely won't crash and burn!"

"Uh, Little Brother Huo, I remember you're not even twelve this year, right?"

"That's right."

"..." Bei Bei did not know how to respond. He could only withdraw his gaze and hurry on. "Little Brother Huo, let's walk faster. Let's try to reach the nearest town and settle down by early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, big brother!"

Huo Yuhao muddled through the topic of looking above Bei Bei's head and continued on with Bei Bei, no longer looking at the top of Bei Bei's head.

It was just that Huo Yuhao's mind was still replaying the matter of the Shrek Auspicious Cloud increasing Bei Bei's Fortune just now.

After thinking it over and over, there was only one possibility.

"There is only one truth, and that is that Shrek Academy is going to help Bei Bei obtain an opportunity!"

Huo Yuhao did not know what the opportunity was.

But Huo Yuhao now understood one thing.

Bei Bei's Fortune was not limited to just what he could see. He could also replenish it from Shrek's Auspicious Cloud!

"Isn't this just wool on a sheep? Shear one crop, and there's another!"

Huo Yuhao decided to call Bei Bei "Sheep Number One" from now on.

As long as he operated properly, Bei Bei was a renewable resource point!

He could not let go of this good big brother.

Huo Yuhao: Bei Bei is my forever good big brother!

Only, Huo Yuhao had not been happy for long when, as he walked, he suddenly felt his own Fortune change.

He opened the Qi Observation Technique again and looked up. Huo Yuhao was shocked to discover that his Fortune was actually being drawn backward. Fortunately, the World Auspicious Cloud above Huo Yuhao's Fortune was suppressing Huo Yuhao's Fortune, preventing much of it from being sucked away.

But Bei Bei was not so lucky. His recently filled Fortune was once again being sucked away in considerable amounts. If this continued, Bei Bei's Fortune would become dangerously precarious.

Big guts!

You actually dare steal this National Preceptor's Fortune!

Huo Yuhao hurriedly looked behind him.

Then he saw a phantom slowly chasing after them from behind.

That phantom had a sheep's body, eyes under its armpits, tiger fangs and human claws, as well as a pair of enormous bull horns.

The phantom was facing the two of them, opening its great mouth and wantonly devouring their Fortune.

Huo Yuhao: "!"

"That phantom is the Godly Taotie Bull?!"

"Damn it, Xuan Zi is chasing us!"
