The Supervisory Team's Mission, Clear Sky Sect Visits Shrek

Ma Xiaotao found that the more she looked at Huo Yuhao, the more pleasing he became.

The more she looked, the more handsome she found his little face.

She even felt that if she had to face this face every day for the rest of her life, that didn't seem so bad.

But as soon as that thought crossed her mind, she couldn't help but recall the experience in the stone chamber last night, and Ma Xiaotao felt her face begin to burn.

Yan Shaozhe thought they had spent the whole night desperately suppressing the Evil Fire, but in reality, that wasn't the case.

That manic energy had already been completely smoothed out by Huo Yuhao and Ma Xiaotao working together by the middle of the night.

As for the rest of the night...

Ma Xiaotao didn't even dare to think about it in detail.

Although the Evil Fire was gone, the lustful fire that had transformed from it was still rampaging through her body.

While there was no longer the danger of exploding to death, it still affected her reason.

At the time, Ma Xiaotao was completely dazed, feeling only that Huo Yuhao's body was exceptionally cool and comfortable.

So, she had wrapped herself around him like an octopus.

She had been very restless during that time.

Touching his pectoral muscles, hugging his neck, and even biting Huo Yuhao on the shoulder; most importantly...

She had been naked at the time.

When she finally woke up completely in the second half of the night, she discovered she was clinging tightly to Huo Yuhao, with one leg draped over his waist.

Ma Xiaotao had wanted to die right then and there.

Although she often heard the senior students making dirty jokes in the Inner Court, it was a completely different matter when it happened to her.

She was a genius of the Inner Court, a maiden who had never even held a man's hand in her life, yet she had done such a thing to a junior several years younger than her!

Ma Xiaotao truly had no face to see anyone, and she didn't know how to face Huo Yuhao.

So, she simply closed her eyes and played dead while lying on Huo Yuhao until dawn.

And honestly, it was quite comfortable.

Only after confirming that Huo Yuhao wouldn't make any further moves did she pretend to have just woken up, hurriedly digging clothes out of her Soul Tool to change into.

Thinking of this, Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but cough lightly, and then, as if suddenly remembering something, a flush of red flew onto her pretty face.

She leaned in a little closer, lowered her voice, and spoke with a coquettish pout.

"Yuhao, about what happened last night... you must never tell anyone."

Huo Yuhao swallowed a mouthful of chicken soup and nodded.

"Don't worry, Sister Xiaotao, I won't say anything."

Of course he wouldn't say anything.

If it really came down to it, he was the one who had suffered the most last night.

Not only was he holding a soft, fragrant beauty in his arms, but she was also a top-tier mature woman afflicted with an aphrodisiac buff.

If he hadn't practiced the Ghost Killing Art to perfection, forcibly converting all those messy thoughts into pure reason, he would have surely met his end in that stone chamber last night.

Actually, if he had just gone with the flow and let Ma Xiaotao vent that lustful fire, the problem with the Evil Fire could have been solved just the same.

But Huo Yuhao didn't do that.

For one, That was the old path Ma Hongjun had taken; it treated the symptoms but not the root cause, and once one fell into it, it was hard to escape.

If he had really done that, everything he had done before would have been for nothing.

It would also have deviated from Huo Yuhao's original intention.

For another, The venting method was highly addictive.

If Ma Xiaotao got a taste of it this time, given her personality, she would definitely come looking for him in the future.

Then the whole thing would lose its meaning.

Huo Yuhao helped her to verify the effects of the Ghost Killing Art and to fire the first shot in his resistance against God King Tang.

He didn't want to end up as a dedicated human fire extinguisher.

Most importantly.

Once or twice was fine.

But doing this all day and all night? Even an iron body couldn't take it!

At the very least, he had to wait until Ma Xiaotao learned to completely control the Evil Fire herself.

"Sister Xiaotao, are you really not going to eat anything?"

Huo Yuhao pointed to the untouched Golden Dragon Tendon Noodles on the table.

It is called dragon tendon, but it is actually just a soul beast with a trace of dragon blood; it has basically nothing to do with the real thing.

Ma Xiaotao shook her head, her gaze still lingering on Huo Yuhao, her eyes shimmering with emotion.

"I'm not hungry, I'm already full."

Huo Yuhao felt his skin crawl under her stare, so he could only lower his head and continue eating.

Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps shattered the subtle atmosphere between the two.

An inner courtyard disciple wearing a red uniform ran up to the second floor, drenched in sweat. He scanned the room, spotted Ma Xiaotao, and immediately hurried over.

Seeing someone looking for her, the flush on Ma Xiaotao's face vanished instantly, replaced by her usual fiery and capable demeanor as she asked.

"What is it?"

The inner courtyard disciple leaned into Ma Xiaotao's ear, lowering his voice to speak rapidly.

Although Huo Yuhao couldn't hear the specifics, the way Ma Xiaotao's brows furrowed instantly told him it definitely wasn't good news.

He had a rough guess in his mind.

It was likely a mission for the Shrek Inspectorate.

As everyone knew, once one became an inner courtyard student at Shrek, they were automatically enrolled in the Inspectorate.

They were primarily responsible for dealing with evil soul masters or malicious incidents that nations could not control.

This was one of the few things about Shrek that Huo Yuhao actually approved of.

Although the existence of a certain Supreme Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult had caused severe casualties among inner courtyard disciples during missions in the past, it did not change the fact that they were genuinely doing good for the ordinary people of the Douluo Continent.

However, since the topic had come up, Huo Yuhao had to vent his frustration.

Regardless of the circumstances, how could a level 98 Super Douluo fail to protect their own students from an evil soul master who was only a Soul King?

Even if Soul Tools played a role, it shouldn't have been that exaggerated.

This wasn't ten thousand years later, where top-tier Soul Tools could pose a lethal threat to Limit Douluos.

No wonder others were suspicious of her.

There were only two possibilities: either she was purely incompetent, or she really was a Supreme Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult.

Pulling back his thoughts, Huo Yuhao looked across the table.

For an inner courtyard disciple to rush over to find Ma Xiaotao like this, the situation was likely related to evil soul masters.

As the top combat power of the inner courtyard, the burden on Ma Xiaotao's shoulders was not light.

The disciple finished his report and respectfully stepped aside.

Ma Xiaotao sighed and waved for him to leave first.

When she turned back to look at Huo Yuhao, this usually decisive senior sister revealed a rare look of reluctance.

"Yuhao, I have an urgent mission and must leave the academy immediately."

Huo Yuhao put down his chopsticks and nodded. He didn't ask any questions, simply offering a reminder.

"Senior Sister, stay safe."

Seeing him so well-behaved and sensible, Ma Xiaotao's heart softened completely.

She couldn't help but reach out with her fair, slender fingers and gently pinch Huo Yuhao's cheek.

"Wait for me to come back."

She leaned in closer, her voice filled with an ambiguity and doting affection that only the two of them could understand.

"Once I finish this mission, I'll come back and properly dote on you."

The corner of Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched slightly.

Big sister, you should really figure out your own Evil Fire first.

And could you please stop saying things that are so easily misunderstood?

There is absolutely nothing going on between us!!

Ma Xiaotao didn't delay any further; she turned and hurried out of the cafeteria, her fiery red figure quickly disappearing at the top of the stairs.

Watching Ma Xiaotao leave, Huo Yuhao suddenly thought of something.

The Ghost Demon Venerable had said before that to formally cultivate the Ghost Killing Art and unleash its true power, one had to engage in real slaughter and stain their hands with blood.

After all, it was the Slaughter Path; it wouldn't make sense not to kill.

But given the current constraints, Huo Yuhao couldn't just go around killing everyone he saw like the Ghost Demon Venerable suggested.

Doing so in this environment would undoubtedly be suicide.

This wasn't the Gu World, nor was it the Southern Border, where one could kill as much as they wanted, where mortals were treated like expendable lives, and no one cared.

But, what if he killed evil soul masters?

At the very least, they were still people.

And most importantly, no one would hold him accountable for killing them.

Things like this have no human rights anywhere.

In other words, everyone has the right to punish them.

Even if his actions were discovered, no one could say anything against him; they might even award him a medal for eliminating demons and defending the righteous.

The only potential trouble was the Holy Spirit Cult, but with Mu En still alive, they wouldn't dare show their faces.

He could just run after killing them and return to Shrek; Shrek could absolutely guarantee his safety.

Huo Yuhao thought about it and decided the plan was feasible.

With that, he picked up his bowl, finished the last mouthful of soup, and let out a satisfied burp.

So, the question arose.

Huo Yuhao was a bit lost now.

Where was he supposed to find Evil Soul Masters?

Huo Yuhao now understood General Duanmu a little better.

Inside the office of the Dean of the Martial Soul Department.

Just as Yan Shaozhe was frowning while looking over Huo Yuhao's file, someone rushed in through his office door, reporting a matter so unexpected that it forced him to take it seriously.

"The Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect is coming to visit Shrek??"
