Na'er, Your Home Got Stolen!
"Hey, Di Tian, you guys are really unfair! You didn't even tell me Ling Bing was back."
Didn't you discover it yourself?
Hearing the deep male voice coming from the other end of the Soul Tool Communicator, Xiong Jun muttered:
"How can that be the same? Besides, haven't you even seen him?"
"He will go to Mingdu with the Master sooner or later; it's not too late to see him then."
Hearing the unusual emotional fluctuation in the voice coming from the other end, Xiong Jun scratched his head.
Di Tian's tone is off...
What happened Master and Huo Yuhao that made him so agitated?
Unable to figure it out for a moment, Xiong Jun stopped thinking about it and asked with a smile, "Regarding the Golden Dragon King Seal, aren't you going to offer some thanks?"
The Golden Dragon King's Remnant Soul resides within Wulin's body. Wulin is his disciple; in essence, the Golden Dragon King is his disciple. Di Tian, what should you call me?
"Are you asking for it?"
Di Tian's tone suddenly turned icy, sending a chill down Xiong Jun's spine. "I will send over the method later, which you will then pass on to your disciple. I will be responsible for that wisp of Divine Consciousness from now on. If any problems arise, you will be held solely responsible!"
"..." Xiong Jun's lips twitched, but he couldn't refute it.
If it weren't for prior communication with the Master and giving him some face, Di Tian would probably have attacked Wulin directly.
After hanging up the Soul Tool Communicator, Xiong Jun's expression became somewhat strange as he thought about the various methods Tang Wulin possessed.
Ling Bing had left a trick on Wulin, Di Tian gave it to him as well. He would occasionally appear in front of Wulin.
Wulin himself also harassed that wisp of Divine Consciousness Tenten...
Was this wisp of Divine Consciousness bearing pressure it shouldn't have been under?
Alright, that's the Divine Consciousness of the God King, not to be underestimated. In Ling Bing's words—we must be cautious.
"Now that the closing ceremony is over, are we going back?"
"I think so. I heard Wulin, your side is finished too, right?"
"Well, Teacher Xiong Jun said there's no rush. We've mastered the techniques, and everything we needed has been delivered. We can go back to the Eastsea now..."
Xie Xie, Wang Jinxi, Zhang Yangzi Xu Xiaoyan Tang Wulin walked along the hotel corridor, chatting as they went.
"I heard the hotel has prepared a lavish dinner for all the participating teams today as a closing ceremony celebration."
Xu Xiaoyan blinked, her tone filled with anticipation.
Xie Xie put his hands behind his head and chuckled lazily, "Then we'll have to have a good meal. The food the hotel has provided these past few days hasn't been as good as what Teacher Luo and Boss Yuhao have made. We have to make up for it today."
Wang Jinxi nodded. "We're leaving tomorrow, so let's relax tonight."
Zhang Yangzi pondered, "I wonder if teams from other colleges will come too. Maybe I'll run into a few acquaintances."
The five of them walked into the restaurant chatting and laughing. Sure enough, the food today was more lavish than usual. The long table was filled with exquisite dishes, from seafood to roast meat, from desserts to local snacks, there was something for everyone. There were already students from other colleges dining in the restaurant, but perhaps because of the time, there weren't many people.
They had just found a place to sit down when suddenly, Xie Xie heard a familiar voice coming from not far away—
What would you like to eat?
Xie Xie turned his head and saw that not far away, Huo Yuhao was holding a girl's hand, and the two were chatting and laughing as they picked out food.
Upon seeing the girl's appearance, Xie Xie felt a sudden dazzle.
The girl's silver hair cascaded down like moonlight, her Purple Crystal eyes were clear, and her features were delicate. She possessed both the liveliness of a young girl and an innate, aloof temperament. Her white dress accentuated her slender figure, making her seem like a darling of heaven and earth.
Xu Xiaoyan and Ye Xinglan from the Shrek Academy are both very beautiful, and Gu Yuena is also a beauty with a refined air, but they all pale in comparison to the girl in front of them.
Only Gu Yuena can rival her in terms of temperament, but that's about it...
"Xie Xie, what are you looking at?" Xu Xiaoyan followed Xie Xie's gaze with some curiosity, then her eyes widened immediately. "Wait... that's Yuhao... and next to him is..."
Na'er's house was raided? Where did this bewitching fox spirit come from?
Her gaze was fixed on Huo Yuhao and the girl's clasped hands, and she subconsciously glanced around, afraid that Gu Yuena might suddenly appear and witness this scene.
The other three also noticed this scene, looked over, and all gasped in shock.
"Which college is this girl from? I don't recognize her at all."
"Maybe he's not a contestant, but someone connected to the hotel? Maybe he saw Yuhao dominating in the competition and is using this opportunity to strike up a conversation?"
"That's certainly possible."
"Is that the problem? The key is that she's almost there!"
Xu Xiaoyan withdrew her gaze, her eyes filled with complex emotions. "After the competition ended, quite a few people approached Yuhao, including Ye Xinglan from Shrek, but he managed to fool them all with his Soul Skill. Anyone who got within five meters of him would turn around and leave as if under an illusion. But this girl clearly didn't receive that kind of treatment!"
To be honest, in Xu Xiaoyan, although Huo Yuhao's previous behavior was a bit too straightforward, he gave her a lot of security and didn't seem like the kind of person who liked to attract attention.
But she never expected that Huo Yuhao, despite his good looks, would ultimately be defeated by them.
Is this world really all about looks?
Oh, so she seems to care about looks herself?
That's alright then...
Xie Xie snapped out of his daze and said in a low voice, "Boss Yuhao said he would come with Gu Yuena, but they separated along the way, right? What if Gu Yuena comes and sees this scene?"
Xu Xiaoyan stood up. "What else can we do? Separate them and keep this a secret."
"Does this really work?"
Wang Jinxi said in a low voice, "I think the atmosphere between Yuhao and that girl is no worse than when he's with Gu Yuena. It's just treating the symptoms, not the root cause."
"There's no time to hesitate. Even a temporary fix is better than doing nothing. I'll distract that girl, and you two go talk to Yuhao."
Xu Xiaoyan turned around, then froze.
Before her eyes, Huo Yuhao and the silver-haired girl had already brought their trays to their table.
Looking at the group of people sitting in a circle, their expressions all frozen, Huo Yuhao smiled helplessly at the person next to him:
"Just tell them, Na'er."
Na'er?
Xu Xiaoyan and the others' pupils dilated in shock.
What does this mean?
Gu Yuena smiled and nodded gracefully to the group. "Let's get to know each other again. This is the real me— Gu Yuena. I've been wearing a disguise all this time for certain reasons."
Xie Xie swallowed hard. "Was that black-haired guy a kind of Simulation?"
Gu Yuena nodded slightly, a strand of silver hair slipping from her shoulder. "To avoid attracting attention. But now..." She turned to look at Huo Yuhao, a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes, "There's no need to hide it anymore."
She had originally planned to revert to her original appearance at some point, and after Yuhao confessed to her yesterday, she went along with it and reverted to her original appearance.
After all, one of the reasons she initially changed her appearance was because of Yuhao's words and identity...
Xu Xiaoyan murmured, "Unbelievable."
You have to believe it whether you want to or not.
Huo Yuhao smiled and shook his head, pulling out a chair for Gu Yuena to sit down, then sitting down beside her himself. "That's just how it is."
Gu Yuena's gaze swept over the still-shocked crowd, finally settling on Xu Xiaoyan, and she continued, "Let's not talk about appearances anymore. You said you were going to distract me?"
Xu Xiaoyan's face instantly turned bright red. "Um... we thought..."
Gu Yuena chuckled softly, not pressing the matter further. "Thank you for your concern. Xu Xiaoyan, I've used my teacher's connections to find you a tutor."
"Really?" Xu Xiaoyan's face lit up with delight. "What's that senior's name? What are their hobbies?"
Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena exchanged a glance, and the latter smiled and said, "It's a secret."
Despite the various twists and turns that led to the destruction of hotels and inns, the Heaven Sea Alliance Grand Competition ultimately concluded successfully.
Except for the last match, Gu Yuena and Huo Yuhao did not participate in the five-person team competition of Tang Wulin and others. It can be said that the five of them made it to the semi-finals on their own.
The audience was equally impressed by the five of them, after all, one of them possessed One Ring Thousand Year Soul Spirit, Martial Soul Fusion Skill, and a very sharp-tongued agility-based "powerful" character...
Comrade Xu Xiaoyan protested against this.
When will this period of her being completely ignored ever end?!
She's going to learn from the mysterious teacher and rise to power!
In addition to the Junior High Division, the High School Division of the Eastsea Academy also achieved very good results, led by Blue Silver King, a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor.
Adding to the impact of Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena's appearances, many people have turned their attention to the Eastsea. However, with the Spirit Pagoda providing cover, they can only gather some basic information, which won't interfere with everyone's lives.
Cultivation knows no time; the river of time flows quietly, and in the blink of an eye, two years have slipped through our fingers.
