Chapter 296 Could Wu Yun'er be Huo Yuhao's biological daughter? I must have bumped into he
Chapter 296 Could Wu Yun'er be Huo Yuhao's biological daughter? I must have bumped into her.
Hearing this exaggerated description, Xu Xiaoyan managed a forced smile, but she still stared blankly at the white-haired boy who was about to reprimand Dai Yun'er.
Just now, the absolute validity of her Star Chains when it hit the target didn't even last a single second in theory.
The fact that this could happen means there are two possibilities.
Either Ling Bing has reached the level of a true god, or the other party possesses the status of a god.
In either case, Xu Xiaoyan felt a chill run down her spine.
She suddenly realized that she might soon be able to personally unveil the layers of mystery surrounding Lingbing and touch upon the unimaginable truth.
Nearly an hour later, Xu Lizhi, shivering in the cold wind downstairs in the dormitory, finally saw the figure he had been longing to see.
But looking at the blonde girl whose face still seemed slightly flushed, he felt his heart sinking uncontrollably into a cold abyss.
Ye Xinglan suddenly stopped and coldly called out to the figure in the shadows, "Who's there? If you don't respond, don't blame me for calling the academy's enforcement team."
"No, Sister Xinglan, it's me."
A panicked voice rang out, and Xu Lizhi hurriedly waved his hands, running all the way from the darkness to the streetlight, his round face full of embarrassment and unease.
"Kasaji?"
When Ye Xinglan saw it was him, the wariness in her expression eased, and she asked with some doubt.
"Why aren't you sleeping at this hour? What are you doing squatting here? Are you having trouble sleeping in this outer courtyard dormitory after moving from the inner courtyard?"
"No, that's not true. I just came back from a newly opened late-night diner."
Xu Lizhi subconsciously scratched the back of his head, trying to force a simple and honest smile to make his words sound more believable.
"Sister Xinglan, as you know, I'm most interested in food. That restaurant is said to be especially delicious, so I couldn't resist—"
As he spoke, he carefully observed Ye Xinglan's expression, then casually asked, "Speaking of which, it's so late, why are you still wandering around outside? I thought you would have gone to bed long ago."
Although he already knew that they had gone to the martial arts arena, his rational mind told him that nothing extraordinary would happen.
But that inexplicable sense of unease still gnawed at his heart like ants, making him feel restless and anxious.
He desperately wanted Ye Xinglan to give him a reasonable explanation in person, otherwise he probably wouldn't be able to sleep well tonight.
However, his words only made Ye Xinglan frown even more.
Xu Lizhi's overly concerned gaze and clumsy lies made her feel inexplicably irritated.
Tonight's experience was far too important for her. The joy of officially entering the realm of sword intent and the pleasure of eating that unforgettable delicious roast meat made her feel pure happiness for the first time in a long time.
However, her attempt to become an apprentice failed, and Dai Yun'er's teasing remark about her being called "Master's Wife" made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
Two completely different emotions made her feel extremely complicated at this moment.
More importantly, based on her understanding of Lingbing, she knew that the other party definitely preferred to keep a low profile and did not want to be disturbed by outsiders.
If Xu Lizhi finds out that I went to see Lingbing so late at night, it will probably cause unnecessary trouble and bother Lingbing.
In addition, Ye Xinglan's mental energy was almost exhausted at this moment.
She just wanted to go back quickly, take a hot shower, and go to sleep. She didn't have the energy to deal with Xu Lizhi's probing questions, so she simply said, "Lizhi, I gained something from the melee today, and I went to the training ground tonight to train and comprehend sword intent. I'm very tired and need to go back to sleep."
Before Xu Lizhi could even speak again, Ye Xinglan leaped over the dormitory wall with nimble movements.
Watching Ye Xinglan's decisive departure, Xu Lizhi's forced smile vanished completely, leaving only a bewildered look on his face.
He and Sister Xinglan grew up together in the inner courtyard since they were little. When they were young, Sister Xinglan even helped him drive away those older students who wanted to bully him.
Why?
He suddenly felt as if an invisible and intangible barrier, yet so heavy it made him despair, had risen between him and Sister Xinglan.
Why is Sister Xinglan hiding her whereabouts from me? Is there something she can't tell me?
Xu Lizhi couldn't help but overthink.
What happened in that training ground that I couldn't possibly know about?
Even assuming it is indeed extra training, is it necessary to train until this late?
And those girls who also appeared at Lingbing Villa, if he remembered correctly, they should all be first-year students.
Suddenly, an extremely ominous thought, like a venomous snake, darted into Xu Lizhi's mind.
Could it be that, as the online posts suggest, Lingbing has some leverage over Xinglan, which has forced things to develop to this point?
It wasn't just Xinglan; other girls also suffered the same fate.
Xu Lizhi, who already enjoyed surfing the internet, had a jumble of chaotic thoughts popping into his mind.
The humiliation of the defeated female swordswoman, the dangerous after-school tutoring, the unspeakable secret—
Fragments from classic works began to echo wildly in his mind.
The next instant, Xu Lizhi suddenly knelt down, his fat right hand slamming uncontrollably against the ground.
At this moment, he had never hated himself as much as he did now for being a food-type soul master with no combat power.
Time flies, and it's the weekend a few days later.
Inside the slowly ascending elevator, Ya-li glanced at the quiet boy beside her, and finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice:
-
"Yuhao, didn't Wu Yun'er plan to come with you today?"
With her experience, she could naturally see how clingy Wu Yun'er was to Huo Yuhao, to the point that they were practically inseparable.
That dependence and closeness has gone beyond the scope of friendship.
In addition, there's her signature Spirit Eyes and Netherworld Cat Martial Soul.
If the Goddess of Life hadn't explicitly told her that Huo Yuhao hadn't had any offspring during the decades he spent in the God Realm, aside from the child he left behind by a twist of fate in the Douluo Continent.
Ya Li couldn't help but start to suspect that Wu Yun'er might actually be Huo Yuhao's long-lost biological daughter.
If this guess is true, Yali doesn't know how she will face that child in the future.
Should I tell her that I might become her stepmother in the future?
Sensing the sudden, turbulent emotions of the woman beside him, who was usually so gentle and kind, Huo Yuhao's lips twitched involuntarily.
He couldn't understand why Ya Li would suddenly care about Wu Yun'er, so he could only suppress his doubts and calmly reply, "Yun'er told me that Xu Xiaoyan and Yuanen Yehui have both reached the bottleneck of their current cultivation and need to contract new soul spirits to break through. Wu Siduo also wants to take this opportunity to add a new soul ring to her Evil Eye White Tiger Martial Soul."
"Thanks to Captain Gu Yue's generosity, they obtained the qualification to challenge the Soul Tower. Yun'er was in the same group as them, so she naturally went to help and also to see if there were any suitable soul spirits for her."
"That child, Gu Yue—"
Upon hearing the name, Yali pursed her lips and let out a sigh that was difficult to decipher: "To be honest, if Yaozhu hadn't beaten me to it, I would have wanted to take that child as my apprentice. I always felt that there was a special connection between that child and me."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's eyelids twitched inexplicably.
He naturally knew the true purpose of Gu Yue, the Silver Dragon King, who had run into the Spirit Pagoda and intended to climb all the way to the core position.
However, given that Tang Hao and Ah Yin now want to revive Tang San, even he cannot give an accurate prediction as to where fate will lead.
The only thing I can do now is to successfully learn the forging method of Heavenly Forging Metal during this trip with Ya Li to visit the master craftsman Zhen Hua, so as to create the most suitable four-word battle armor for myself.
Only by further enhancing our own hard power can we remain steadfast in the face of all changes.
As I was pondering, the elevator doors slid open to both sides with a ding.
What comes into view is a helipad specially modified on the roof of the teaching building.
A humanoid mech, with a pure white body accented by green and gold lines, and shaped like an angel with its eyes closed in prayer, stands in the center of the helipad.
The mech is about seven meters tall, and its structural design clearly indicates that it is a black-level mech.
Yali's expression didn't change much. She simply waved casually at the mecha, and the cockpit in the mecha's chest slowly opened, revealing the interior space.
The cabin wasn't very big; besides the driver's seat, there was only a passenger seat right behind it.
"Yuhao, come up with me."
Yali's composure remained largely unchanged. She took the lead in walking towards the mecha and explained, "There is now a tight network of soul-guided radar monitoring over the major cities of the Federation."
Even a Title Douluo-level powerhouse would need to climb to an altitude of several thousand meters to achieve high-speed flight. Otherwise, directly crossing the airspace over a town would be extremely troublesome, easily leading to being treated as a criminal.
Huo Yuhao naturally understood what Ya Li meant.
The flight speed of the Black-level mecha is no weaker than that of an ordinary Title Douluo, and it is much faster than that of the Soul Guidance Train.
Moreover, their destination was Mingdu, which was almost a traverse of most of the Douluo Continent, as they set off from Shrek Academy.
If you were to take the Soul Guidance Train, it would probably take more than two days and nights.
Relying on the identification card installed inside the mech, the mech can pass through specific areas without hindrance while flying.
Given Ya Li's status, whether it was her original role as a Soul Master secretly trained by the Federation or the immense prestige she enjoyed among the common people.
The identification card on the mecha she piloted naturally granted her sufficient authority to fly freely over any town on the mainland.
The two boarded the mecha one after another. Yali quickly stood in the pilot's seat, and as the surrounding support components moved closer, her body was fixed in a specific position.
However, when Huo Yuhao sat down in the leather seat behind him, he belatedly realized a problem.
Starting with Black-level mechs, each mech is usually custom-made for a specific Soul Master, and no one other than the mech's owner can pilot it.
Therefore, unlike yellow-level or purple-level mechs, it will not have an additional co-pilot seat in the cockpit for teaching or cooperative combat.
Clearly, the leather seat he was sitting on was a temporary addition for this trip.
This makes the already cramped cockpit space even more crowded.
Most importantly, the two seats are too close together.
At this moment, Yali, whose body is restrained by various connecting parts, needs to lean slightly forward and assume a standard piloting posture in order to better control the mecha.
This perfectly normal action, however, revealed her unusually voluptuous curves, which were originally hidden beneath her loose long dress, to Huo Yuhao without reservation.
The distance was far too close.
Huo Yuhao was so close that he could feel the tip of his nose almost touching the overflowing peach-shaped buttocks.
He subconsciously turned his head slightly to the side, afraid that something irreversible might happen if he wasn't careful.
A faint blush appeared on Yali's usually gentle and composed face.
In the cramped and enclosed cockpit, the faint, warm breath coming from behind her, carrying the unique scent of a young man, gave her an indescribable illusion.
The energy was like a gentle little hand, slowly moving upwards along her tailbone, bringing with it a faint electric current that gave her a strange tingling sensation.
In particular, the clean, sunny scent emanating from Huo Yuhao was never more intense than it was at this moment.
This aura even caused the seed of divinity within her, originating from the goddess of life, to begin to throb uncontrollably, as if it were yearning for something.
Yali took a deep breath and managed to suppress the restless warm current that was surging in her abdomen. When she spoke again, her voice still trembled slightly.
"Yuhao, hold on tight, we're about to set off."
As Yali's body pressed down again, fully entering pilot mode, the thrusters on the back of the Prayer Angel, resembling folded wings, instantly emitted dazzling blue tail flames.
The sudden, powerful acceleration inevitably caused Ya Li's delicate body to lean towards Huo Yuhao behind her.
Although the cockpit returned to normal in the next instant, Yali's pretty face was already as red as a shy young girl, delicate and beautiful.
I must have bumped into something.
If I had known this would happen, I should have worked hard to study mecha design, raised my design skills to level nine, and then designed a red-level mecha myself.
That way, at least the spirit could pilot the mech in my place, and this embarrassing situation wouldn't happen.
