This Auspicious Beast Will Never Suffer for Love

The Emperor Auspicious Beast suddenly brought up Gold of Life. Could it be that she took me for some pretty boy?

He was still young, only eleven. Even if the Auspicious Beast had not mentioned it, he could have obtained it through his own efforts.

After all, according to the Original Work's plot, when Huo Gua participated in his first Soul Master Competition in Star Luo City, he would trigger his bargain-hunting passive at the Starlight Auction House and buy the Soul Devouring Knife, whose raw material was Gold of Life, for a low price.

Now, Miss Auspicious Beast had taken the initiative to ask whether he needed a piece of Gold of Life...

Huo Yuhao looked at the Three-Eyed Golden Tabby lying beside him, his eyes carrying the meaning of, Do you have improper thoughts about me?

"Huo Yuhao, why are you looking at me like that?"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion first tilted her head in confusion, her three eyes blinking slightly.

"I don't want to conduct attributes with you, okay? I'm just interested in those interesting stories of yours." She felt that showing interest in a newly born human male was somewhat embarrassing, so she emphasized it again.

"Mm, I understand." Huo Yuhao smiled calmly and did not pay much attention to her explanation.

Then, man and beast returned to the outside world.

Huo Yuhao checked Tang Ya and Bei Bei's conditions. There was no major problem; they had merely been knocked unconscious by the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's pressure.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion raised her neck and shook her head. A string of translucent, jade-green pendants emerged from the golden fur around her neck.

She used her claw to pull the pendant off and placed it beside Huo Yuhao. "Huo Yuhao, I have something I want to ask you."

Seeing the jade-green pendant and sensing the dense Life Aura within it, Huo Yuhao was slightly surprised. A guess arose in his heart, and his brows lifted unconsciously.

"Please speak, Miss Auspicious Beast."

"If I give you half of this Gold of Life, will you conduct attributes with me?" The Three-Eyed Golden Lion got straight to the point without hiding anything.

She was very interested in Huo Yuhao's little stories. As for whether she was curious about this underage human male himself... the Three-Eyed Golden Lion would not admit that she was, even a little.

Huo Yuhao blinked, quickly realizing what the Three-Eyed Golden Lion meant. He considered it briefly.

"As long as no villain interferes, and both of us are willing, then of course we can conduct attributes."

Huo Yuhao paused and gestured toward the Light Orb before him, his gaze gradually turning serious.

"But we must make sure no one is sabotaging us behind the scenes. Otherwise, it will turn out like what happens after the Light Orb's current plot, and we'll suffer then."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion had not seen what came next, but she felt that she was the Emperor Auspicious Beast. Since childhood, she had never been a beast who mistreated herself. What hardship could she possibly suffer?

It could not possibly be the pain of love, right?

Then she thought of it another way. What did the "Three-Eyed Beast whose neck was restrained by Xuan Zi" in the Light Orb have to do with her, the Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion?

Even if there really was suffering in love, she only needed to watch the plot from beginning to end once.

So this time...

She, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, would never taste even the slightest bit of love's suffering.

With that thought, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion tilted her head toward Huo Yuhao. "The two of us possess similar destiny auras. While you're still so weak, I'm even giving you Gold of Life. You can't forget my kindness, can you?"

Huo Yuhao smiled warmly and stroked the golden fur around her neck. "How could I? Your appearance has brought me many gains. I definitely won't mistreat you in the future. I'm not going to walk the Path to Death."

Not only had the Three-Eyed Golden Lion added another opportunity to the mission whose reward depended on the scale of the opportunity, she had also provided Huo Yuhao with the reward of Beast Fire, Purple Fire.

This would greatly help his early development. In truth, he was already very grateful to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

"Look, inside this pendant is a small piece of Gold of Life. Di Tian gave it to me when I was little."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion hooked the pendant with her claw, then lightly swiped it, splitting it into two halves. "Its main use is healing. I've been well protected in the Star Dou Great Forest and have never suffered any real injury, so it hasn't been very useful to me."

Huo Yuhao pursed his lips upon hearing this. Using Gold of Life to test a Soul Master—what Soul Master could withstand that test?

To be honest, Huo Yuhao could.

But Old Yi could not.

An aged voice sounded in Huo Yuhao's mind. "Yuhao, accept the Gold of Life. Though this piece is not large, the life force contained within it is exceptionally pure."

"It will also be of great benefit to you at your current stage. So long as your injuries are not especially severe, you can gradually recover with its help."

Electrolux sighed. "Moreover, Gold of Life can improve my condition somewhat, allowing this wisp of Divine Sense, like a candle flame in the wind, to stabilize a little."

Of course Huo Yuhao understood just how much Gold of Life would help Old Yi. In the Original Work, that piece that became the Blade of Life allowed Old Yi to recover from his long-term unconscious state to the point where he could occasionally communicate with Huo Gua.

At this moment, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion grabbed the Light Orb containing the Soul Land 2 plot and said, "But it's not entirely free. I have one small request. I want you to give me this Light Orb so I can take it back and watch it slowly."

Huo Yuhao naturally agreed. This thing had been meant for her to watch in the first place.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion gave half the Gold of Life from the pendant to Huo Yuhao, then looked again at the scene of Huo Gua and the Three-Eyed Beast conducting attributes in the Light Orb.

"Huo Yuhao, look. Both of them have three eyes, while your forehead is completely bare right now."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion extended a claw and lightly traced it across Huo Yuhao's forehead without hurting him. "I hope that the next time we meet, you'll have an Eye of Life here."

"As for whether we conduct attributes or not, that will depend on This Auspicious Beast's mood then."

Huo Yuhao laughed. "All right, no problem."

After hesitating for a moment, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion bid Huo Yuhao farewell. "Then I'm leaving. I'll take this Light Orb with me too. I want to see what kind of suffering the Three-Eyed Golden Lion inside this Light Orb will face in the future."

"Mm, go back." Huo Yuhao waved at her. "Once I open an Eye of Life, I'll naturally come to the Star Dou Great Forest."

"If you're willing to conduct attributes then, just come find me after sensing my aura."

"Ha, I understand, Huo Yuhao." The Three-Eyed Golden Lion nodded happily.

Before leaving, she looked into Huo Yuhao's eyes and still felt that they were beautiful. She stared for several seconds before the Three-Eyed Golden Lion slowly turned her head away.

She stepped out with claws wrapped in Golden Flame Dragon Scale and ran toward the Core Zone of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Perhaps it was not strictly necessary to possess an Eye of Life in order to conduct attributes. Huo Yuhao simply was not sure whether the Tang God King would take the opportunity to make a move against him.

In the Original Work, when Huo Gua and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion conducted attributes, Wang Dong felt as if something within her had been cut away. It was a fragment of Tang Princess's soul that had been stuffed into the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's body.

Yet the explanation the Tang God King himself gave in the end was, "The Emperor Auspicious Beast was my arrangement from the very beginning. From the start, she was a part of Tang Wutong..."

How interesting. When the Emperor Auspicious Beast was born, let alone Tang Wutong, had Tang San even been born?
