Chapter 107 Evil-Eyed Tiger
"So, are you planning to leave, or are you going to stay here and die?"
Huo Yuhao's voice rang out again. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he slowly stretched out his hand. A terrifying pressure of soul power descended instantly, like an invisible mountain pressing down on the shoulders of each of the men in black. This power directly forced all nine men in black to their knees, except for Zhu Zhuqing, who was in the very center, who was completely unharmed. "Please spare us, sir! We'll leave right now, we'll leave right now!"
The Level 38 Soul Master's face was filled with terror, and his words were almost squeezed out with trembling hands. After speaking, he practically scrambled and crawled away into the darkness in the distance, as if a demon was chasing him.
That boy was truly terrifying. He could pin him to the ground with just his soul power, making him feel as if he were being held down by an invisible hand, as if he were just an insignificant ant.
The level 38 Soul Master, while on the run, kept guessing that his opponent's strength had probably reached level 68, or even higher. In the world of Soul Masters, each additional Soul Ring signifies a leap in strength, and a level 68 expert is among the top in the Douluo Continent. Such a powerful being could probably take his life with just a single move.
The remaining eight men in black, seeing their leader Wolf Fox flee, were filled with panic. They scrambled to their feet and fled in disarray, each trying to escape with their own companions.
Several of the weaker men in black were even forced to vomit blood and suffer severe internal injuries under the oppressive power of the soul force. They wouldn't be able to recover without several months of recuperation.
Huo Yuhao slowly walked towards Zhu Zhuqing. Watching Huo Yuhao approach, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but feel nervous. She instinctively hugged her chest tightly, leaned back slightly, and stared warily at the approaching Huo Yuhao.
Zhu Zhuqing's muscles tensed; she could feel the powerful aura emanating from Huo Yuhao. She knew that if this young man truly intended to harm her, she simply wouldn't have the strength to resist.
Zhu Zhuqing was filled with unease because Huo Yuhao's gaze had been lingering on her chest, making her suspicious.
Does Huo Yuhao harbor any ill intentions towards her?
Huo Yuhao stopped helplessly and looked at the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in Zhu Zhuqing's arms, saying, "Brother Tianmeng, stop fooling around and come back."
Hearing Yuhao's words, Zhu Zhuqing involuntarily looked down at the silkworm in her arms. The silkworm still had a blank and adorable expression, curled up in her arms, seemingly oblivious to everything happening around it.
A sudden surge of protective instinct welled up in Zhu Zhuqing's heart. She immediately looked at Huo Yuhao with wary eyes and said firmly, "These are my silkworms."
Huo Yuhao stood there, unsure of what to do. He looked at the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in Zhu Zhuqing's arms. If the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm refused to leave, he couldn't very well reach into Zhu Zhuqing's arms and pull it out, could he?
Huo Yuhao lowered his head helplessly. He took a deep breath and then used his mental power to send a telepathic message to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm: "Brother Tianmeng, what are you doing? Why are you clinging to Zhu Zhuqing?"
"Yuhao, have you forgotten what Elder Yi told you before? We must continuously plunder Tang San's luck. The Shrek Seven Devils are a part of Tang San's luck. If you take down Zhu Zhuqing first, the Netherworld White Tiger will be crippled. Isn't that perfect?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's voice rang out solemnly in Huo Yuhao's mind.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm continued to explain, "Moreover, I have already consulted Bingbing and the Ice and Fire Dragon King about this matter, and they both agree with my suggestion. We are all of one mind on dealing with Tang San. If you are still hesitant and wavering, you might as well not deal with Tang San at all, enjoy life, and then wait for Tang San to become a god before you die."
After hearing Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's words, Huo Yuhao felt a complex mix of emotions. He remained silent for a moment before finally giving an affirmative answer: "Brother Tianmeng, I understand."
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's reply, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm immediately jumped off Zhu Zhuqing's chest and hopped back onto Huo Yuhao's shoulder.
This silkworm really is the mysterious boy's.
Looking at the departing Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, Zhu Zhuqing felt a sudden emptiness in her heart. She had originally thought that this silkworm would always be with her, accompanying her through the days to come. However, reality was so cruel; she realized that in the end, she was still all alone.
Zhu Zhuqing gently bit her lower lip, a flicker of hesitation crossing her eyes, but she quickly regained her resolve. She turned and took a step forward.
I walked slowly along the quiet path beside me. Anyway, over the years, I've long been used to living alone. I was alone before, and I will be alone in the future.
"Wait a minute, are you leaving already?"
Huo Yuhao's voice suddenly rang out behind her. Zhu Zhuqing stopped and slowly turned around, speaking calmly and indifferently, "Yes, thank you for your help, and thank you for your silkworm that kept me company just now. However, I should leave now."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm flicked its antennae, its clear eyes looking sincerely at Zhu Zhuqing, and smiled slightly: "Sister, actually..."
We can go together.
"Silkworm? Was that you talking to me just now?" Zhu Zhuqing looked at the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm with some surprise, her heart filled with disbelief.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm smiled slightly, as if responding to Zhu Zhuqing's surprise: "Hehe, sister, let me introduce myself. I am Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. You can just call me Tianmeng. Judging from the direction you're heading, you should be going to the Barak Kingdom, right?"
Zhu Zhuqing was still reeling from the surprise of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's words. Her thoughts were a bit jumbled, but she still subconsciously replied, "Yes, I'm going to the Barak Kingdom. You even know that? You're so smart."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm jumped into Zhu Zhuqing's arms again, its big, watery eyes sparkling: "Sister, we're going to the Barak Kingdom anyway, why don't we go together?"
Zhu Zhuqing's first reaction to Tianmeng Bingcan's suggestion was to refuse. Her personality dictated that she was used to facing everything alone. However, when she saw Tianmeng Bingcan's irresistibly adorable appearance, she almost blurted out, "Of course, of course! Then, let's go together!"
After Zhu Zhuqing finished speaking, she led the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm forward. Seeing this, Huo Yuhao quickly followed behind, saying, "Hello, wait for me! Why are you walking so fast?"
Perhaps because of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, the relationship between Huo Yuhao and Zhu Zhuqing has eased considerably.
Huo Yuhao knew a bit about Zhu Zhuqing's tastes and habits, and would specially add some chili peppers for her when grilling fish.
At first, Zhu Zhuqing was a little wary, after all, she wasn't used to others caring about her so much. But over the few days they spent together, Zhu Zhuqing gradually accepted Huo Yuhao's presence. She began to relax her guard against him, and even stopped caring about the time Huo Yuhao had stared at her chest.
A few days later... As time passed, the sun slowly sank in the west, painting the horizon golden. On the streets of Soto City, Huo Yuhao and Zhu Zhuqing walked slowly, surrounded by the tranquil sounds of nature. A gentle breeze brought a touch of coolness. For the first time, Zhu Zhuqing broke the silence. She turned her head, looked directly at Huo Yuhao, and softly asked, "Huo Yuhao, how old are you this year?"
Huo Yuhao was slightly taken aback, seemingly surprised by Zhu Zhuqing's initiative to ask the question, but he quickly recovered and calmly replied, "Twelve years old."
Upon hearing this answer, Zhu Zhuqing's face immediately showed a surprised expression. She asked again in disbelief to confirm, "Twelve years old? Then you're the same age as me, but your cultivation level is already Soul Emperor..."
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly and explained, "That's my simulation soul skill. It can create an illusion. My real soul power is only level 49."
Level 49...that's already pretty impressive.
A complex emotion flashed in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, and an indescribable longing welled up in her heart. If she could also possess level 49 soul power like Huo Yuhao, then she wouldn't be in such a sorry state now, being chased from place to place, and even unable to control her own destiny.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in her heart, then looked at Huo Yuhao with a hopeful gaze and asked softly, "Then, can you tell me how you possess such great strength?"
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, seemingly unsurprised by Zhu Zhuqing's curiosity. He slowly said, "Good talent, good luck, hard work, plus a systematic and scientific cultivation method."
Huo Yuhao's voice was calm and composed.
Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Zhu Zhuqing felt a pang of envy, followed by a fleeting sense of melancholy. She knew her talent wasn't outstanding; her innate soul power was only level seven, which wasn't considered high in the world of soul masters. She also understood that her luck had never been particularly good.
Whether it's family feuds or the various difficulties on the path of cultivation, he always seems to face more challenges than others. Compared to Huo Yuhao, he is truly far inferior.
"Huo Yuhao, are you going to Shrek Academy after coming to Soto City?" Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but ask. She was filled with doubt; a genius like Huo Yuhao should be attending a more prestigious academy.
"Yes, I'm going to Soto City this time, so naturally I'll be going to Shrek Academy." Huo Yuhao's answer was firm and clear, without the slightest hesitation.
"Why? Why would a peerless genius like you go to that obscure academy?" Zhu Zhuqing asked, puzzled. "Aren't you going to Shrek Academy too? Why can't I go?" Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, his gaze meeting Zhu Zhuqing's eyes. Zhu Zhuqing felt a little uncomfortable under Huo Yuhao's gaze, turning her head away. Her heart raced, and her cheeks flushed slightly.
"I'm getting more and more curious about this so-called Shrek Academy. Hopefully, this academy can bring me some surprises." Zhu Zhuqing's voice carried a hint of anticipation.
Huo Yuhao looked at Zhu Zhuqing helplessly, a hint of worry in his eyes. He said softly, "You shouldn't have too high expectations. This so-called Shrek Academy might disappoint you..."

Before Huo Yuhao could finish speaking, his voice suddenly stopped, as his gaze was drawn to a striking scene in front of him.
A tall, blond man was seen with his arm around a pair of similar-looking twins as they walked towards a lavishly decorated Rose Hotel, chatting and laughing. The blond man's laughter echoed in the air.
Huo Yuhao turned around and looked at Zhu Zhuqing. He noticed that Zhu Zhuqing's face turned cold instantly, and her clenched fists showed her anger and disappointment.
Huo Yuhao could sense the sorrow in Zhu Zhuqing's heart. He understood that Zhu Zhuqing's life in the Zhu family was full of pressure and anxiety, while her fiancé was indulging in pleasure without restraint, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to her.
As Zhu Zhuqing watched the blond man groping the twins, she felt nauseous, as if the whole world had become distorted at that moment.
She had thought her fiancé would also defy his original fate like she had, but the scene before her completely shattered her illusions.
Huo Yuhao gently patted Zhu Zhuqing's shoulder.
His eyes were filled with disgust as he looked at the blond man. Huo Yuhao had never had a shred of goodwill towards any member of the Dai family. No wonder Dai Hao was such a womanizer and left his mark everywhere; his ancestors were no good either.
Moreover, looking at Dai Mubai, let alone Dai Hao, even Dai Huabin is much better than Dai Mubai. After all, Dai Huabin doesn't go looking for prostitutes.
"Let's go in and take a look. The show is about to begin." Huo Yuhao took Zhu Zhuqing's hand and led her towards the hotel.
Huo Yuhao could already sense a familiar aura in the hotel. It seemed that a certain God-King had also arrived here.
"Huo Yuhao, what are you doing? Let go of me right now!" Zhu Zhuqing's voice was filled with panic and shame. Her face flushed instantly, and she instinctively tried to break free from Huo Yuhao's grasp.
"Don't move. Come with me. Dai Mubai acted like this in front of you. Don't you want to provoke him? Or are you scared?" Huo Yuhao's deep blue eyes were fixed on Zhu Zhuqing.
When Zhu Zhuqing saw Huo Yuhao's eyes and heard his words of support, she finally stopped struggling and let Huo Yuhao lead her by the hand towards the hotel.
Holding Huo Yuhao's hand, Zhu Zhuqing felt a surge of security. So this was what it felt like to be cared for? Huo Yuhao had no grudge against Dai Mubai, yet he was willing to antagonize Dai Mubai for her sake. Could it be...? Zhu Zhuqing felt her thoughts become a little chaotic, her heart pounding. However, before they even stepped into the hotel, a powerful surge of soul energy began to spread. Then, Dai Mubai's shout echoed from within the hotel: "Third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"
