In the following days, Wang Shaojie seemed to have disappeared, and did not appear in the laboratory at all.
The book he took away somehow ended up back in the lab.
Huo Yuhao didn't bother with it; to be honest, he didn't even remember Wang Shaojie's name.
In the early morning, sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Huo Yuhao's face. He slowly opened his eyes, and a warm towel was placed on his face, gently and carefully wiping Huo Yuhao cheeks.
Push yourself up with your hands behind you and sit up in bed.
Ju Zi and Ke Ke were dressed in matching maid outfits, looking at Huo Yuhao with respectful expressions.
Ju Zi put away the towel in her hand without saying a word, threw it into the basin of water next to her, and then handed it to Ke Ke.
Ke Ke immediately grabbed the basin and headed towards the bathroom.
At this moment, Ju Zi also stood up and picked up Huo Yuhao's clothes from the clothes rack next to her and unfolded them.
"Do you have something to do today?" Huo Yuhao got out of bed, picked up the hot tea that Ju Zi had prepared, and took a sip.
Ju Zi carefully buttoned up each of Huo Yuhao's buttons before stepping aside and saying, "Today, Teacher Xuan has arranged for us to test his latest Soul Tool. Yuhao, you're coming with us too."
"Perfect, I can take this opportunity to obtain my Fourth Soul Ring without delaying anything."
Huo Yuhao listened to Ju Zi's suggestion without finding anything wrong with it.
"Then get ready, let's go."
Huo Yuhao straightened his sleeves, picked up the breakfast on the table, and strode out the door.
At this moment, Ke Ke also came out of the bathroom. Her maid outfit changed into a black outfit, making her petite body look very capable.
Ju Zi changed her maid outfit into casual clothes, preparing to keep up with Huo Yuhao.
Ke Ke looked at Huo Yuhao's figure in the distance and lowered her voice, saying, " Ju Zi, when did Lord Shadow arrive? You didn't even tell me. These past few days have been so awkward."
Looking at Ke Ke's bitter face, Ju Zi almost burst out laughing.
Ke Ke glared at Ju Zi, Ju Zi then covered her mouth and comforted her, "I just forgot to tell you all for a moment. Don't worry, Lord Shadow won't mind."
"Hmph! You're probably the most unreliable of the Seven Shadows. I've seen through you, Ju Zi. I shouldn't have listened to your nonsense back then!" Ke Ke with some regret, her face falling and her whole demeanor becoming listless.
Seeing Ju Zi like this, Ju Ke Ke was at a loss. After all, Keke was her best friend, and she had to spoil her.
He took out a can of beef jerky that he had prepared beforehand from his storage ring, unscrewed the lid, and waved it in Ke Ke's direction.
"Whoosh!"
Ke Ke stretched out her nose and took a deep sniff of the air. Instantly, she saw a can of beef jerky dangling right in front of her.
Wow! Beef jerky! This... is it to bribe me?
Ke Ke's eyes lit up, and she suddenly reached out to snatch the beef jerky.
The jar containing the beef jerky seemed to have been prepared, lifting up just as she moved, reaching a position that Ke Ke couldn't reach.
Ke Ke jumped upwards with all her might, but under Ju Zi's control, every time she jumped, Ju Zi would lift her up a little higher.
"Giggle giggle giggle!"
Ju Zi held up the beef jerky and laughed non-stop, occasionally shaking the jerky in her hand.
Hearing Ke Ke Ju Zi's mocking laughter, Ke Ke's little face turned bright red. She jumped again with all her might, but missed again.
This time, it was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, making Ke Ke so angry that she gave up and shouted loudly.
"Ugh! You're so annoying, you bad Ju Zi, I'm never talking to you again."
Ke Ke got angry and puffed out her cheeks, walking straight ahead without turning back no matter how Ju Zi called her.
Ju Zi realized she had gone too far, so she chased after her and stuffed the beef jerky in her hand into Ke Ke's arms.
"I don't want to... I don't want to."
As Ke Ke spoke, she walked forward. Just as Ju Zi was thinking about how to comfort her, she felt the weight in her hand lighten.
Looking again, Ke Ke had already stuffed several pieces of beef jerky into her mouth at the same time.
Its cheeks were bulging from the beef jerky in its mouth, making it look exactly like a chipmunk with its mouth stuffed full of food.
Ju Zi then realized she'd been tricked by Ke Ke. She pretended to raise her hand to hit her, feigning an insult. "You little Ke Ke!"
"Hehehe, who told you to bully me!"
Ke Ke made a funny face and ran off in a flash.
Ju Zi smiled helplessly as she watched her best friend run off at breakneck speed, and had no choice but to hurry up and catch up.
Before long, the three of them arrived at the school gate.
However, this time, with Ju Zi and the others accompanying them, the taxi drivers standing at the school gate didn't even glance at them, and the surveillance behind them had also disappeared.
Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood why. He quickly led Ju Zi and Ke Ke out of the school gate.
Immediately following, three dazzling trails of flame streaked across the sky, and Huo Yuhao and his two companions flew away from Mingdu.
In mid-air, the surrounding scenery kept rushing past.
Ju Zi guided the soul-guided flying vehicle closer to Huo Yuhao and said, " Yuhao, we're going to the Jingyang Mountain Range this time. There are many Soul Beast Soul Beast in the Jingyang Mountain Range, and some of them are quite unique and not found in the Star Dou Great Forest."
Ke Ke added from the side, "At the same time, we can also complete the Soul Tool testing task arranged by Teacher Xuan, so we can do both without delay. However, these are still a bit lacking compared to the research in our Garden."
Ju Zi shook her head modestly and said, "No, the technologies hidden in the Illustrious Virtue Hall are of great help to our research, but it's a bit troublesome to get our hands on them. I'm afraid it will take some time before I can access them."
Just as the two were talking, Huo Yuhao suddenly had a feeling, turned his head to look to the side, and had the answer in his heart.
He then interrupted their conversation, saying seriously, "We'll talk about that later. Full speed ahead, finish this, and then head back to headquarters."
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, the two immediately shut their mouths, focused all their Soul Power on increasing their speed to catch up with Huo Yuhao.
Although they didn't know what had happened, they could guess from Huo Yuhao's tone that something big was about to happen, otherwise Huo Yuhao wouldn't have urged them.
Even with Huo Yuhao's power boosting them, it still took the three of them about two hours to reach the skies above the Jingyang Mountain Range.
From afar, viewed from high above, the Jingyang Mountain Range resemble a giant spider or a giant octopus crawling across the land, somber yet majestic and magnificent.
A wild and fierce aura emanated from the mountains. Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao led the two of them down and landed directly.
Clearly, the tranquility of this mountain range is about to be shattered by Huo Yuhao's arrival.
