Chapter 157: “gua! Shura Field? This Is Bad.”
Hearing Huo Yuhao’s words, Doctor Roman smiled mildly, slightly straightened his body, and said:
“Very normal.”
“The Extraordinary World is just like that.”
“Life’s thirst for evolution is endless. Even if you didn’t step in to research Soul Spirits.”
“When the people of this world discover that their future path is blocked, they will find a way out themselves.”
“There is no such thing as restricting civilization development.”
“It’s just a matter of fast or slow.”
Huo Yuhao just smiled at this.
“That’s too slow, though?”
“According to this world’s Soul Tool development progress.”
“Without any interference, it would probably take them ten thousand years to reach an information society.”
“Another ten thousand years before they could possibly enter the starry sky.”
“Not to mention there’s a God Realm right above their heads, and they are no good guys.”
“To put it bluntly, they are actually parasites sucking blood from various worlds.”
“At least for Douluo Continent, that’s the case. Tang Buddha didn’t give Douluo Continent any benefits and kept using dirty tricks and dirty tricks here.”
Doctor Roman tapped his temple with his finger. Just as he was about to continue saying something, he saw Huo Yuhao put down his crossed legs, point outside, and say:
“Someone’s coming.”
“It’s Feng Jin and Xia Die.”
“They must be here to find you, right?”
Doctor Roman smiled and nodded, saying:
“Yeah.”
“Some time ago, I promised Feng Jin to teach her knowledge related to Inherent Skill.”
“And by the way, teach her some Alchemy knowledge.”
Huo Yuhao used telekinesis to open the office door.
“Inherent Skill, huh.”
“That’s not easy to learn.”
“It not only requires a certain level in Alchemy, but also very high standards for the user’s mind and will.”
Doctor Roman naturally knew the high requirements of Inherent Skill. He said confidently:
“These kids are unmatched in talent and will.”
“If even they can’t learn Inherent Skill, then this incantation can be thrown away directly, because no one can learn it.”
“An incantation without inheritance is no different from not existing.”
While Huo Yuhao and Doctor Roman were chatting idly, Feng Jin and Xia Die finally arrived at the door of the top-floor office.
“Doctor Roman!”
“Ti Bao and I came to find you!”
Feng Jin’s pink-to-blue gradient curly twin tails swayed slightly, her bright green eyes shining faintly, showing the girl’s inner excitement.
“Ah! Brother Huo is here too!”
Feng Jin’s tone carried surprise; she didn’t expect to see Huo Yuhao here.
“Father.”
Xia Die’s gemstone-like purple eyes also showed surprise. She gently lifted the skirt hems on both sides and curtsied slightly to Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao smiled and greeted Feng Jin.
“How have you been lately, little Feng Jin?”
“I came here to discuss some things with Doctor Roman. After all, I am the Enthusiasm Boss.”
Then he looked at Xia Die and said with a slightly dissatisfied tone:
“Didn’t I say no need to curtsy when you see me?”
“This makes us seem too unfamiliar.”
Huo Yuhao stood up gently. The chair under him scraped against the wooden floor, making a slight sound. He walked to Xia Die and Feng Jin’s side and gently rubbed the two girls’ heads.
Satisfaction appeared on Xia Die’s usually indifferent pretty face, and Feng Jin also enjoyed Huo Yuhao’s stroking.
Feng Jin herself didn’t know why, but every time she saw Brother Huo, her heart always felt relaxed and happy, with a vague sense of dependence.
Just like a child away from home suddenly seeing their parents.
That feeling of having a reliable mountain behind her made Feng Jin return to calm no matter how anxious she felt inside.
“Pretty good.”
“But the dorm conditions at Shrek Academy are really hard to describe. Luckily, Teacher Ti Bao is here!”
“We can use Teacher Ti Bao’s Hundred Realms Gate to go outside for baths.”
“Because of this, Teacher Ti Bao is very popular in the girls’ dorms.”
“Many people are very nice to Teacher Ti Bao, just hoping she takes them outside for baths.”
Just like children away from home telling their parents about fun things at school, Feng Jin excitedly told Huo Yuhao about their recent experiences.
Huo Yuhao showed a gentle smile and patiently listened to the girl’s words. When he saw her getting a bit parched, he poured a cup of water for each of the two girls from the nearby table.
“Sounds like this will be a romantic story.”
Huo Yuhao’s black eyes flowed with soft light as he said softly.
Both Feng Jin and Xia Die nodded. Feng Jin said energetically:
“Being together with companions is the most romantic story in the world!”
Hearing Feng Jin’s answer, Huo Yuhao nodded in satisfaction. This was exactly the answer he wanted, and it was also the foundation for them to stand firm under falling boulders.
Doctor Roman on the side showed a barely noticeable worry in his eyes. He knew Huo Yuhao’s plan.
These children would be at the center of all future storms; their future paths would be thorny.
Huo Yuhao’s spiritual power was so strong that he naturally caught Doctor Roman’s abnormality. His thoughts were too easy to guess.
So he transmitted to him via spiritual power:
“I also promised that after they pass through the thorny roads, what awaits them is a new world of brilliant sunshine and beautiful scenery.”
Doctor Roman nodded imperceptibly to Huo Yuhao. He believed that this future The Above All Things would not mistreat his retainers.
Immediately after, Doctor Roman looked at Feng Jin and Xia Die and said:
“Time’s about right. Let’s go. I’ll teach you alchemy related to Inherent Skill.”
Feng Jin nodded her little head, her green eyes shining slightly. Xia Die beside her was a bit hesitant.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao gently took Xia Die’s hand, looked at Doctor Roman, and said:
“Looks like Ti Bao wants to go stroll around Shrek City with me more.”
“Teach her next time.”
Doctor Roman’s gaze carried gentleness. This The Above All Things was more humane than the previous one. Of course, it would be even better if he could make him do less work.
“I don’t mind.”
“Ti Bao can come find me anytime she wants to learn.”
“This gives me a reason to ask for leave from her father.”
“When will this mountain of documents ever end?!”
Just thinking of that mountain of documents made Doctor Roman’s eyes turn dead-fish-like, without any luster.
Huo Yuhao ignored Doctor Roman’s muttering, pulled Xia Die, and headed straight out the door.
“As long as you persist, even an iron pestle can be ground into a needle.”
“Keep it up! My excellent employee!”
Doctor Roman smiled helplessly, tidied up the documents, and then took Feng Jin directly to the open space behind Enthusiasm Building to prepare to teach her Alchemy.
“Feng Jin, next, I will demonstrate every detail of the Inherent Skill in detail. Remember it, okay.”
“Yeah! Doctor Roman!”
………….
“Come, try this outfit on.”
In a clothing store on the main street of Shrek City, Huo Yuhao picked out a light purple dress for Xia Die, held it in front of her and compared it. Feeling it was pretty good, he told her to try it on.
Xia Die took the dress, her eyes lighting up slightly, and entered the fitting room to change.
This child was too obedient to Huo Yuhao. He felt that even if he gave her an outfit matching his own, she wouldn’t refuse.
Huo Yuhao stood at the clothing store entrance, imagining Xia Die wearing a windbreaker with a purple top and black pants. He surprisingly found it quite fitting!
He glanced at the fitting room, thinking next time he could prepare a strong person outfit for her too.
Later, find a way to coax Su Tong into wearing a matching outfit. The three of them just standing together when going out would make others feel fear.
“B-Brother Huo?!”
A familiar voice interrupted Huo Yuhao’s thoughts. Three figures emerged from the bustling crowd.
The leftmost figure had golden long curly hair, beautiful eyes slightly widened—it was his half disciple, Jiang Nannan.
The middle one had a black ponytail, petite figure—Huo Yuhao almost didn’t notice this child. It was also an old acquaintance, Xiao Xiao.
The right one was the familiar stranger, with signature pink-blue short hair—Wang Dong in male attire.
Looking at her face, similar yet slightly different from his previous life, Huo Yuhao’s thoughts surged.
“I wonder if they survived?”
“Did they pass the Jupiter crisis?”
“If they did, could they smoothly reach Proxima Centauri?”
“Is the stellar system there suitable for humanity’s continuation?”
Huo Yuhao had almost buried his previous life’s memories deep in his heart. Seeing this familiar stranger, he couldn’t help worrying about Earth’s previous life.
Malice from the star was a burden too heavy for a species to bear. The sun’s one joke almost took the lives of billions of beings.
Even in this world, even those God Realm gods absolutely couldn’t withstand a solar helium flash.
They could probably only rely on the God Realm to resist the solar storm.
In the end, it was Xiao Xiao’s elbow that pulled Huo Yuhao’s wandering thoughts back.
She puffed her cheeks, looking up at Huo Yuhao, her face full of displeasure.
“Hey!”
This almost triggered Huo Yuhao’s passive.
“Should I call you Danzo or Huo Qiang?”
Huo Yuhao could only smile awkwardly and say:
“Call me Huo Qiang.”
Xiao Xiao turned her head away, her black side ponytail whipping like a long whip at Huo Yuhao’s abdomen.
This child hadn’t grown taller at all after a year.
She still had to look up at Huo Yuhao.
“Alright, don’t be mad. I didn’t hide it on purpose.”
“Back then, I was unfamiliar with the place. I couldn’t use my real identity, right?”
Of course, his current identity was also an alias. Only a few closest people knew Huo Yuhao’s true identity.
Xiao Xiao raised her fist wanting to punch Huo Yuhao’s chest, but realized she couldn’t reach. In the end, between anger and frustration, she chose frustrated anger.
Looking at her balloon-puffed little face, Huo Yuhao amusingly poked her cheek, and a deflating sound came from her mouth.
Everyone present held back their laughter.
Huo Yuhao rubbed her head and said:
“Don’t be frustrated anymore. I’ll take you all to eat in Shrek City right away.”
“You can order anything you want.”
Only then did Xiao Xiao’s anger slightly subside as she said:
“Hmph, that’s more like it.”
“I want the most expensive!”
“You’re Spirit Ice Douluo, you can definitely afford it, right?”
Huo Yuhao smiled and said:
“Of course, of course.”
Then, Huo Yuhao looked at Jiang Nannan and said:
“Long time no see.”
Jiang Nannan smiled and said softly to Huo Yuhao:
“Yeah, long time no see.”
Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong and said:
“And this is?”
Wang Dong had long heard Xiao Xiao mention Huo Yuhao and knew this was the Enthusiasm Leader, the continent’s strong person Spirit Ice Douluo.
He was slightly reserved and nodded slightly to Huo Yuhao, saying:
“Your Excellency Ling Bing, my name is Wang Dong.”
At this time, Xiao Xiao pointed at Wang Dong and said:
“During last year’s New Student Assessment, he and I were teammates.”
“Too bad we lost to Huo Sui’er in the end.”
“But both of us became Core Disciples.”
Wang Dong’s face also showed some regret.
“Sigh! Too bad the final Butterfly God light didn’t hit, or we might have turned it around.”
Xiao Xiao rolled her eyes at Wang Dong and said:
“Give me a break. Back then, you were like a big goose charging straight at Huo Sui’er. I didn’t even have time to support!”
“In the end, you got surrounded by three people. It was I who saved you!”
“Otherwise, you’d have been bedridden for half a month!”
Wang Dong stomped his foot and retorted to Xiao Xiao:
“That was tactics!”
“I was trying to capture the leader first. Who knew Huo Sui’er was only level twenty-three then, with such strong attack power!”
“Good thing my movement technique was superior, buying you all five minutes with my body!”
Xiao Xiao made a disgusted “ew” sound.
“You were clearly a punching bag for five minutes.”
Jiang Nannan’s beautiful eyes showed helplessness as she waved her hand at Huo Yuhao.
Then Jiang Nannan mentally psyched herself up, planning to chat with Huo Yuhao about recent situations to build rapport.
Just as she was about to speak, a clear, cold female voice came from behind Huo Yuhao.
“Father! I’m changed.”
“Who are they?”
Huo Yuhao was just about to turn back to respond to his good daughter when he caught Jiang Nannan’s eyes suddenly losing their light in his peripheral vision.
