Slurp!
Chu Hao lifted the steaming noodles with his chopsticks, sucked them in hard, and the slick strands slid into his mouth. He chewed a few times while they were still hot, then swallowed. The sight made Bibi Dong and Hu Liena keep gulping.
They smelled far too good!
In the end, Bibi Dong really could not withstand the temptation of the noodles and asked hesitantly, "Um, Xiao Hao, didn't you cook any for us?"
"I did. Go get them yourselves."
Chu Hao replied coldly, then lowered his head and continued eating.
The way he ate so heartily made the two of them drool even more.
"Teacher, wait a moment. I'll go get them right now!"
Hu Liena also could not resist the temptation of the noodles. She hurried into the kitchen and brought out the spicy beef noodles Chu Hao had prepared long ago.
The moment Bibi Dong and Hu Liena took their first bite, they were completely conquered by that fragrant, numbing, spicy deliciousness.
They had never eaten noodles this good before.
They had not expected Chu Hao to have such cooking skills.
At that moment, whether it was Bibi Dong or Hu Liena, both of them liked Chu Hao more and more.
However, Bibi Dong's liking was admiration, while Hu Liena's liking was the affection between a man and a woman.
As the saying went, if you wanted to keep a woman, you first had to keep her stomach.
Chu Hao was exactly the kind of good man who could keep a stomach.
"Mmm, fragrant. Too fragrant."
"Xiao Hao, you're really amazing. You actually have such good cooking skills."
"Besides cooking noodles, can you make anything else?"
Bibi Dong happily finished the noodles, and she did not even spare the soup.
"Yes," Chu Hao said coolly.
"That's good. From now on, Teacher's stomach is in your hands," Bibi Dong said happily.
"Me too, me too!"
Hu Liena hurriedly raised her paw as well.
She liked noodles this delicious far too much.
"Sorry, I don't have time!"
"I'm tired. One of you wash the bowls."
Of course Chu Hao would not agree. He got straight up and returned to his room, which was next door to Bibi Dong's room.
"Don't, Xiao Hao. Let's discuss this properly."
Seeing Chu Hao leave, Bibi Dong quickly called out to stop him.
But Chu Hao acted as if he had not heard her and shut the door outright, leaving Bibi Dong terribly embarrassed.
"Teacher, how about I live here too?"
"If Chu Hao cooks one day, I can also freeload a meal."
Hu Liena glanced at the bowls and chopsticks in front of her, then somewhat helplessly tidied them up.
There was no helping it. She could only wash them herself.
She could not very well let her teacher wash them.
"Mm, it's up to you. Remember to wash the bowls clean."
Bibi Dong nodded helplessly and agreed to let Hu Liena stay here.
Although Chu Hao had not agreed to cook for her, that did not mean he would not cook at all.
What if one day Chu Hao suddenly got the urge to cook for himself?
At the very least, someone had to stay behind to wash the dishes.
And Hu Liena was the best candidate to wash the dishes.
"Okay, Teacher. I'll definitely wash the bowls clean, so don't worry."
Knowing that she could stay here to rest from now on, Hu Liena went off to wash the dishes in high spirits.
Little did she know, Bibi Dong was being far too fanciful.
Chu Hao did not even have enough time to cultivate. Would he still cook for himself?
Keep dreaming!
After that, everything he ate was ready-made.
In order to cultivate, Chu Hao even shut himself in his room and did not come out, no one knowing what he was pondering. Even Bibi Dong often could not see him.
This continued until Bibi Dong received the information investigated from Heaven Dou City.
When Bibi Dong learned everything Chu Hao had done in Heaven Dou City, she froze where she stood.
His suffering, his slaughter, his talent—all of it left her deeply shaken.
He had endured torment in an underground prison, swallowed humiliation for half a year, and with the cultivation of a Soul Elder, had slain a Soul Emperor in rage, massacred nearly a thousand people, and terrified the Heaven Dou Empire to its core.
What an astonishing achievement that was.
No wonder his personality was so cold.
No matter who it was, anyone would probably have turned out the same.
"Ghost, send word to Xue'er. Tell her she must protect Chu Ling's safety at all costs, and announce that everyone is to seal off all information about Chu Hao."
"If anyone dares spread it, they are to be dealt with according to Martial Soul Hall's highest punishment."
Bibi Dong shattered the secret letter in her hand completely and immediately gave Ghost the order.
As long as Chu Ling remained in the Heaven Dou Empire, Chu Hao would continue to bear a grudge over this matter.
Once she had nurtured Chu Hao to maturity, that would be the beginning of the Heaven Dou Empire's destruction.
After all, if Chu Hao acted to destroy Heaven Dou, it would be perfectly justified.
He would only be doing it to save his younger sister.
No wonder Xue'er had not rescued Chu Ling at the first opportunity and sent Chu Hao to Martial Soul Hall.
So she had thought of this long ago as well.
"Yes!"
Ghost answered respectfully, then turned and left.
And just as Bibi Dong learned all of Chu Hao's information, Golden Crocodile Douluo and all the worshipers and elders who were paying close attention to Chu Hao had basically received almost identical reports as well.
After learning everything Chu Hao had experienced, they were all shocked.
What kind of monstrous talent was this?
At this moment, many of them even began to regret it. Why had they not been the ones to meet Chu Hao first? How good would it have been if they had taken him as a disciple?
Of course, apart from Martial Soul Hall obtaining information and records about Chu Hao's rampage in Heaven Dou City, the Star Luo Empire and the Seven Great Sects also learned some of the news to varying degrees.
If the Heaven Dou Empire had not enforced strict secrecy over this matter, it would have spread across Douluo Continent long ago. There was no way it would have taken this long for the major powers to find out.
For a time, Chu Hao became someone the Star Luo Empire and the great sects desperately fought to obtain, and they all sent trusted subordinates to search for him across Douluo Continent.
Obtaining Chu Hao was equivalent to obtaining a future Titled Douluo.
No, it should be a peerless Douluo.
The Star Luo Empire, in particular, was determined to get him.
That was because the Star Luo emperor had also seen the hope of using Chu Hao's hand to eliminate the Heaven Dou Empire.
Unfortunately, Chu Hao had already joined Martial Soul Hall, so all the major powers were destined to busy themselves for nothing.
Half a year later, while quietly waiting for Bibi Dong to take him to Slaughter City, Chu Hao had only raised his soul power by two levels.
Such a slow speed left him extremely dissatisfied.
But he could not directly tell Bibi Dong that he wanted to go to Slaughter City, so he could only hint at it from the side.
Otherwise, with Bibi Dong's intelligence, she would definitely seriously suspect his purpose in joining Martial Soul Hall and instead refuse to let him go to Slaughter City for training.
But Bibi Dong simply played dumb in front of him, pretending not to understand. She kept refusing him on the grounds that his current strength was insufficient, that he was not ready to go to more dangerous places, and that letting him take such risks would be reckless.
This infuriated Chu Hao.
Once, he asked what level of strength he needed before she would take him to these so-called dangerous places for training.
Seeing that he was determined to go, Bibi Dong thought it over and then set him the promise of becoming a Soul King.
Since that was the case, Chu Hao had to raise his cultivation quickly.
If he wanted to improve his cultivation quickly, one way was to keep killing, and the other was to find a shortcut.
Because of that, he thought of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Judging by his timeline on Douluo Continent, Tang San should only be about eleven years old now and should not have gone to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well yet.
With the help of immortal herbs, quickly raising his cultivation would not be a problem. While he was at it, he could also kill soul beasts in Sunset Forest, condense killing intent, and add soul rings to the Ancient Tree of Life.
He remembered that adding soul rings to a second martial soul could also raise soul power.
He could use this chance to raise his soul power level to Soul Ancestor, then rely on the strength of the immortal herbs to attempt to break through to Soul King in one go.
In order to further gain the loyalty of Hu Liena and the other two, Chu Hao deliberately brought them along as well.
With him and Hu Liena there, Bibi Dong would definitely send Chrysanthemum Douluo or Ghost Douluo to protect them. Add Du Feng to that, and Gu Dubo could only watch helplessly as he took the immortal herbs away.
