The Sisters Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er Return Home to Skywater Academy

"Slaughter City?"

Huo Wu was startled. "You mean the Slaughter City where you can obtain Divine Slaughter's Domain?"

"Yes, that's the one."

Yan Buhui nodded. "Slaughter City-that godforsaken place. So far, only two people have made it through."

"Oh?"

Curious, Huo Wu pressed him. "Which two?"

"The Pope of Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong, and Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao."

Yan Buhui simply spoke the two names in a calm voice.

"If I had to add one more person, it would be the strongest person on the continent, Limit Douluo Tang Chen. But he's already crowned himself king in Slaughter City. By now, he's probably lost his sense of self and turned into a beast that knows nothing but slaughter."

"How do you know... so much?!"

Huo Wu swallowed, somewhat startled, and asked nervously.

"Ha..."

Yan Buhui gave an easy smile and replied matter-of-factly, "I'm different from ordinary people, after all. It's only natural that I know a little more. I've learned quite a bit before."

"You like reading too?"

Huo Wu hadn't expected that Yan Buhui wasn't just impressive as a great phoenix bird; he was also an intellectual, an ambitious young man.

How could the red-haired young man before her be so remarkable?

"Once in a while..."

"I look through some classics and reference books now and then. A man can be unlearned, but as a phoenix man, I ought to read more."

Yan Buhui spoke jokingly, teasing her.

His eyes were full of a gentle smile.

He silently looked at Huo Wu beside him, her long hair flowing.

He knew.

He understood.

At this moment, Huo Wu belonged to him.

Everything, every last bit of it, had been destined.

For the Evil Fire Phoenix Clan, whether Soul Masters or Soul Beasts, controlling Evil Fire was extremely difficult, because Evil Fire needed desire.

And controlling one's own desire was extremely difficult.

"All right..."

"That's good. You can read more widely."

Huo Wu nodded and answered seriously.

"By the way, have you all finished packing?"

Suddenly remembering, Yan Buhui asked her.

"Mm, more or less, I think."

Huo Wu looked toward Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, Xue Wu, and the other Seven Beauties of Skywater, as well as Mu Yunteng and Yao Zi of Plant Academy.

They were all ready to go.

They were only waiting for Yan Buhui's command.

His ten wives were willing to follow him.

It wasn't far to make a trip back to the Four Elements Academy!

"Is everyone ready, my dear wives?"

Yan Buhui turned around, clapped his hands toward Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, Xue Wu, and the others, and said with a smile, "It's time to set off, wives."

"Mm, we're ready. Back to Skywater Academy!!!"

The Skywater dance troupe, led by Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, were the first to voice their thoughts and respond.

Huo Wu, meanwhile, merely nodded gently at Yan Buhui's side without saying much.

Yao Zi and Mu Yunteng did the same. "Mm, let's go. We'll make a trip back to Plant Academy. We miss home."

"All right!"

Yan Buhui didn't hesitate either!

He transformed into his true form, a 200,000-year-old Evil Fire Phoenix, and called out to his ten wives:

"Climb aboard, wives! I'll carry you into the sky, and we'll enjoy the scenery all the way home!"

"Mm..."

The women answered one after another and climbed onto Yan Buhui's soft, comfortable feathered back.

Come to think of it, Yan Buhui felt it.

How had he suddenly gotten so much heavier?

Then he thought about it.

Ten wives, at a hundred jin apiece, came to a weight of a thousand jin.

Sure enough, having lots of wives meant not only giving up phoenix essence blood, but also spending strength and effort!

Yan Buhui might complain.

But what could be easier than picking up girls?

Besides, these women were all women with whom he'd shared a wedding night.

They had known the intimacy of skin against skin and done what husband and wife did. Now they were even carrying Yan Buhui's phoenix egg babies, making them much more delicate. Naturally, he had to take good care of them; it was even harder than caring for women during postpartum confinement.

Fortunately, they didn't resort to that routine: first crying, then making a scene, and finally threatening to hang themselves.

Otherwise, Yan Buhui couldn't have stood it. He'd have had to divorce them.

"I'm taking off, wives!"

Yan Buhui called out to them jokingly with a smile.

"Fly! Back to Skywater Academy!"

Shui Bing'er stretched out her arms and clenched her fists, answering happily.

Seeing the women's delight,

Yan Buhui kicked off with both claws and soared, piercing the heavens as he flew straight upward.

The billowing dust settled onto the ground of Phoenix Emperor Mountain.

When the four Soul Beast lords-the Three-Headed Hellhound, the Flame Martial Wild Boar King, the Flame Bird, and the Earth Fire Lizard Lord-noticed, they came to understand a few more things.

"His Imperial Majesty has taken the Imperial Mothers out to enjoy themselves again." The Three-Headed Hellhound shook his three dog heads helplessly and smiled calmly.

"Isn't that the truth? His Imperial Majesty has it so much better than us," the Flame Martial Wild Boar King chimed in. As the king of the Peppa Pigs, he was even more envious that Yan Buhui alone could have ten wives. With so many women, he wondered if Yan Buhui's kidneys could take it.

Or perhaps he had indestructible diamond kidneys.

The Flame Bird was much more relaxed.

As an avian Soul Beast, Yan Buhui, an Evil Fire Phoenix, was far stronger than the Flame Bird.

The Earth Fire Lizard Lord, meanwhile, hoped that one day he could evolve into an Earth Fire Dragon like his ancestor. Then he would no longer be a green-skinned lizard, but a terrifying crimson Earth Fire Dragon.

"His Imperial Majesty really is formidable. Not only is his strength outstanding, his physique is also incredibly tough and robust!"

From below, the Earth Fire Lizard Lord saw Yan Buhui soaring into the sky with no fewer than ten women sitting on his feathered back, and couldn't help exclaiming.

The gap between one beast and another was actually this great.

Was it possible to be charming as a human and charming as a Soul Beast too?

In that case!

The Earth Fire Lizard Lord figured it out.

It seemed that after Soul Beast Transformation, he would have to become a handsome man or a beautiful woman. Only with a dazzling appearance could he attract the attention of the opposite sex.

On this continent, without a handsome face, no one would bother to learn about the depth of your worldview.

The Three-Headed Hellhound, the Flame Martial Wild Boar King, the Flame Bird, and the Earth Fire Lizard Lord silently watched Yan Buhui leave.

Before long,

Yan Buhui flew to the outskirts of the Land of Extreme Flame.

And there on the outskirts,

Tang San's brother-in-law, the Sky Azure Bull Python, and the Titan Giant Ape were crouched down, resting.

They were getting ready to sleep in.

Suddenly, a phoenix cry rang out from the sky, scaring the two of them into trembling!

They immediately perked up.

Standing firmly, Yan Buhui merely smiled faintly and noticed that something was amiss with the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape.

However, he had neither the time nor the energy to reprimand the two gatekeepers.

Instead, he continued flying with his ten wives. After all, compared with his wives' happiness, Yan Buhui could understand his subordinates slacking off.

Just like that!

Thanks to Yan Buhui's ability to soar ninety thousand li through the sky,

before long,

they arrived at Skywater Academy, one of the Four Elements Academy...
