Douluo: Crossing the Yuhao Star Palace Master

Chapter 66 You Must Promise Me

After saying goodbye to Yan Shaozhe again, Huo Yuhao and the other two finally left the office building.

As soon as they stepped out of the door, the three of them stopped in their tracks at the same time. Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao looked at each other in silence.

Then, Wang Dong asked with some concern, "That person in red is the one who went berserk last time, right? Dean Yan asked you to meet her. Is it dangerous?"

Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment. She was just about to ask Yan Shaozhe about the man in red, but now from what Wang Dong said, it seemed like this man had some grudge against Huo Yuhao and the others.

Huo Yuhao had already noticed Xiao Xiao's doubts, so he explained them to her as well.

"The red-clothed figure Dean Yan mentioned is his direct disciple, Ma Xiaotao. I learned from my parents before that her martial spirit is the same evil fire phoenix as the original Shrek Seven Devils. Her martial spirit is very talented, but there is always a trace of evil impurity in the essence of the flame, which prevents her from fully manifesting the essence of the fire phoenix. This has led to her constant restraint in her cultivation, and she is always on guard against the evil spirit running rampant."

"Three months ago, Wang Dong and I took a day off because we were taking a walk along the shores of Sea God Lake that morning when we ran into this senior student whose evil spirit was raging. If I hadn't released my second martial soul and used the ultimate ice attribute to suppress her and temporarily sober her up, I think Wang Dong and I would have faced life-threatening dangers."

"This time, Dean Yan took the initiative to talk to me about this matter. In fact, he hopes that I can use the ultimate attributes of my second martial soul like last time to help this senior sister suppress the evil spirit in her martial soul, or even go a step further and help her eliminate the impurities in her martial soul and achieve the evolution of her martial soul."

Xiao Xiao finally understood what Dean Yan had just said, but after understanding this, she couldn't help but worry about Huo Yuhao's safety just like Wang Dong.

"In that case, will it be dangerous for you to come into contact with that senior student at night?"

Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao both didn't want Huo Yuhao to take this risk at this moment. After all, the previous example was right in front of them. If Huo Yuhao encountered any danger, they didn't even dare to think about it.

Huo Yuhao smiled with a relaxed expression, "It'll be fine. This senior hasn't gone berserk yet. I'll help her suppress her evil fire when the time comes, and then she won't be able to harm me. Besides, I've already promised Dean Yan, so I can't go back on my word, right? You two can rest assured."

Seeing that Huo Yuhao had said this, Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao really didn't know how to persuade him any further, so they could only suppress their doubts and worries for the time being.

"By the way, Wang Dong, didn't you tell me before that my dad asked me to go to the Soul Guidance Department after I woke up?" Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered what Wang Dong said to him when he just woke up in the morning.

Wang Dong blinked before realizing that Huo Yuhao was talking about Qian Duoduo, the vice-president of the Soul Guidance Department.

Xiao Xiao, who had been instructed by Qian Duoduo along with Wang Dong, immediately realized, "You're going to the Soul Guidance Department now?"

Huo Yuhao nodded. "Yes, so I'd like to ask you to ask for leave for me, Teacher Wang Yan, and Teacher Mu Jin. I might not be able to attend today's class."

Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao immediately agreed. The three of them parted ways at a fork in the road not far ahead. Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao went to the teaching building for class, while Huo Yuhao went straight to the soul guide test building.

In the Soul Guidance Department's experimental building, the ninth experimental area, Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo were discussing Huo Yuhao.

"Lin'er, once Yuhao comes back, you must remember not to ask too many questions!"

"I know this without you having to tell me. This kid's been out there since he was eight. He wouldn't have made a name for himself without some secrets. We should ask questions if necessary, but don't delve into details. Like the teacher said, since we've all adopted him as our son, we have a responsibility to guide him onto the right path."

"You're right. Anyway, let's both be careful with our tone and not scare Yuhao."

"It's natural!"

At this moment, the gate to the testing area slowly opened, and a figure quietly walked in. Huo Yuhao, whom Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo had just been talking about, had arrived.

Seeing Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo there, Huo Yuhao immediately bowed slightly and said, "Mom and Dad, I'm here."

Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo looked at Huo Yuhao in front of them nervously, feeling a bit awkward as first-time parents.

The two of them quickly pulled Huo Yuhao over, one hand each, and the three of them sat on a chair each, as if they were having a family meeting.

The two men looked at Huo Yuhao, hesitant, unable to find what to say. If it were just a master-disciple relationship, perhaps it wouldn't be so complicated, but the childless couple had impulsively adopted Huo Yuhao as their adopted son.

Huo Yuhao had heard Yan Shaozhe's words before, and after the Sea God Pavilion meeting just yesterday, he suspected his two adoptive parents were worried about him. Embracing the principle of not letting those who have done him good be hurt and repaying a drop of kindness with a spring, Huo Yuhao spoke first. "Mom and Dad, I know you may have many doubts, but Yuhao's respect and gratitude for you two remain unwavering."

"I haven't revealed my second spirit to you before because it's hard for me to explain right now. Anyway, please rest assured, there's nothing wrong with the origin of this spirit, and I haven't traded my future for anything. When the time is right, I'll explain everything to you."

Xian Lin'er's eyes turned red as she listened to Huo Yuhao's words. Unable to hold back, she hugged Huo Yuhao tightly. "Good boy, how could Mom and Dad doubt you? You've been out there since you were eight years old. If you didn't have a secret, you could be dead. How could Mom and Dad force you? If you want to talk, Mom and Dad will listen to you. If you don't want to, just keep it to yourself."

"As long as you don't go astray and do anything wrong, mom and dad will always support you behind your back. But you must promise me that no matter what you do, you can't joke with your life!" Xian Lin'er held Huo Yuhao's face with both hands and said seriously.

Huo Yuhao stared at Xian Lin'er in front of him absentmindedly. For a moment, he thought that the person in front of him was Huo Yun'er.
Huo Yuhao quickly suppressed his inner emotions and nodded slightly with a sour nose.

Seeing Huo Yuhao agreed, Xian Lin'er embraced him again with joy in her eyes, murmuring, "Good boy, good boy!"

Qian Duoduo watched the scene with contentment, a sigh of relief filling his heart. He knew Yuhao was still Yuhao, his and Xian Lin'er's son. That was enough. As for secrets, who could say they didn't have any? It wouldn't affect their family's relationship, so who cared?
