Huo Wu: I Really Want to Kidnap Su Li and Take Him Home!

A year ago.

Vague memories of the future had suddenly surfaced in her mind.

For a girl in the midst of adolescence, matters concerning her own romance were extremely alluring.

Whenever she thought of them at night, she could not help but look forward to finding out what kind of person the boy in her memories truly was.

Would they... really end up together?

And cultivate into gods?!

However.

The memories were sparse and hazy.

She had glimpsed bits and pieces of their daily lives and learned only Su Li's name.

As for everything else.

She knew very little.

And now, they had actually met at the outskirts of Star Dou Forest?

Could this be the legendary... fate?

But.

Why was there such a pretty little girl behind him?!

Huo Wu wore a cheerful smile on the surface, but inwardly, she had already cursed Ning Rongrong to hell and back.

If she had not wanted to avoid showing Su Li her temperamental side.

She would have given this little girl, who had no idea of her own limits, an over-the-shoulder throw right then and there.

"You... know me?"

Su Li frowned and asked curiously.

He had suddenly felt something just now.

The girl before him had been extremely excited upon seeing him.

As though she had waited a long time before finally finding the person she wished to see.

"I do..." Huo Wu stepped forward and smiled gently. "Little brother, don't we know each other now?"

The girl bent down to look at the little boy before her, who currently only reached her chest, and her heart instantly blossomed with joy.

So... Su Li had been this adorable when he was little?

What should she do? She really wanted to hug him and take him home to raise him.

"What are you babbling about?! Stay away from him!"

Ning Rongrong's gaze instantly turned dangerous. She grabbed Su Li's arm, pulled him two steps forward, and stood between them.

Seeing her act as if she were protecting her food, Huo Wu's dissatisfaction grew even stronger.

Where did this girl come from?!

Did she really think Su Li belonged to her?!

Just as Huo Wu was about to say something else, the team members behind her immediately stepped forward and looked at her in confusion.

"Little sister! What are you doing?!"

"He stole my spirit beast!"

Huo Wushuang looked at his sister strangely, wondering if she had taken the wrong medicine.

Normally, she was incredibly proud around the opposite sex and looked down on every one of them.

But now...

She was acting so warmly toward a little boy?

Could it be...

Love at first sight?!

How the hell was that possible?!

"Brother! The spirit beast has already been killed, and you can't absorb its spirit ring anyway... There's no need for us to make trouble."

Huo Wushuang: "???"

Was this really his sister?

Had he been caught in an illusion?

Su Li looked calmly at the people before him. "In that case, this spirit beast belongs to us."

"Please leave on your own."

As soon as he finished speaking.

Su Li walked toward the Sacred Flame Dragon Lizard, sat down cross-legged, and began absorbing the spirit ring.

"Damn! Is this kid insane? A Spirit Master wants to absorb a thousand-year spirit ring? Isn't he afraid of dying?!"

"Impressive, impressive. So he's an idiot."

"What a pity... I have no idea what got into the vice-captain for her to back down... Sigh, do you think she has taken a liking to that kid?"

"It's possible..."

Listening to the whispers around her, Huo Wu's cheeks burned crimson.

She turned around and glared fiercely at those speaking in hushed voices.

"If you don't want to die... shut up!"

"Yes!"

After Huo Wu's warning, none of them dared make another sound.

As the academy headmaster's daughter, she was proud and fiery, and she would throw hands at the slightest provocation.

They did not want to get beaten up...

"Lao Qiang... don't you think the refined man beside that boy looks familiar?"

"I seem to... remember him?"

The two teachers leading the group stared fixedly at Chen Xin's back, cold sweat involuntarily appearing on their foreheads.

When the students had been clamoring earlier, they had wanted to speak as well.

But after that young man glanced at them, they instinctively did not dare open their mouths.

It felt as if the slightest movement would send them straight to the afterlife.

"He's probably a disciple of some major faction... He actually dares to make his second spirit ring a thousand-year one. This is simply insane."

"Shh, just watch... Don't make a sound. We may be about to witness history."

The ten teachers and students from Blazing Fire Academy stood there, staring intently at Su Li.

Their eyes held both shock and confusion.

"Su Li... you have to succeed..."

Ning Rongrong clasped her hands together, interlocked her fingers, closed her eyes, and prayed silently.

For ten thousand years.

No one on the continent had ever heard of anyone having a thousand-year second spirit ring.

How could she not be worried?

Even though she trusted Su Li deeply, she was still nervous.

Time passed second by second.

Every time Su Li frowned, the two girls' hearts lurched violently.

The feeling was no different from dancing at the edge of a cliff.

Chen Xin stood there silently. Anyone familiar with him would understand.

At this moment, he was even more focused than when facing a Titled Douluo.

As the spirit ring's color grew increasingly faint, it was finally absorbed successfully.

The atmosphere at the scene instantly rose to a strange peak.

"He... succeeded?"

"Impossible! This is impossible! This completely defies spirit master theory!"

"A thousand-year second spirit ring? Are we witnessing history?"

Ning Rongrong and Huo Wu both instantly relaxed, identical smiles appearing on their faces.

Then.

For some reason, the two suddenly looked at each other.

Their eyes met, and intense hostility filled their gazes.

"Hmph! Another shameless, stinking woman!"

"What is Su Li made of, to attract girls like this?!"

Ning Rongrong muttered unhappily and walked up to Su Li. "How was it?"

"Mm... not bad."

Su Li shook his arm. After absorbing the thousand-year spirit ring, he felt that his physique had improved considerably.

He also seemed to have shot up a little taller.

Seeing that the boy had become a bit taller than her again, Ning Rongrong could not help but feel a competitive urge rise in her heart.

She stood on tiptoe and pressed a hand against his head.

"Su Li, grow slower. Don't get too much taller than me!"

"I'll always have to look up at you like this, and it's tiring."

After saying that.

Ning Rongrong did not know what came over her, but in front of so many people, she gently rubbed Su Li's head.

They looked like childhood sweethearts with an exceptionally close relationship.

The other boys could not help feeling a little envious.

Only Huo Wu.

Her face was red, and she looked as though she were about to explode.

She bared her teeth, and the smile on her face was nearly impossible to maintain.

Ning Rongrong secretly glanced at her and instantly smiled even more charmingly.

"Oh my, why is big sister's face so red?"

"Could it be that the weather is too hot?"

"Or did your fire-attribute martial soul burn you?"

Ning Rongrong covered her mouth as she laughed, her crafty gaze like that of a fox spirit.

"Hahaha... I'm just wearing a little too much..."

"You're joking, little sister."

Huo Wu's lips twitched. Even though she felt awful, she still maintained her smile.

Damn it!

In a few years, she would bully Su Li fiercely right in front of this girl!

How infuriating!!!
