Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, am the Master of Spirit

Chapter 29 "Parting is not forever, it's just waiting." (Please continue reading)
"Master Huo, what's wrong?"

Hearing Jiang Nannan's familiar and melodious voice, Huo Yuhao calmed down from the anger he felt towards the Douling Royal Family's deity.

"Oh, Nan Nan, it's nothing. I was just angered by a bunch of feudal bastards whose cerebellums are underdeveloped and whose brains are completely underdeveloped."

As he spoke, Huo Yuhao waved the book in his hand at her.

Although Jiang Nannan couldn't understand Huo Yuhao's words, her eyes widened immediately when she saw the book title, "On the Meridians of Human Body Cultivation".

I've heard of this book!

Hearing her slightly excited voice, Huo Yuhao was a little puzzled.

“My homeroom teacher mentioned this book when I was at Shrek Academy.”

"She said that a super strong member of Shrek Academy gave this book extremely high praise."

"Therefore, some teachers in Shrek Academy specialize in studying related knowledge."

"However, I heard that there seems to be no result."

"He was also privately criticized by another powerful figure for making a fool of himself."

"He said that Soul Masters should be down-to-earth and not delve into unrelated things. Does that mean one cannot become a strong person without the theory of meridians?"

Huo Yuhao's lips twitched. He had thought Shrek Academy had some innovation in this area, but it turned out that the research atmosphere had been extinguished.

Although Jiang Nannan did not directly reveal who the two powerful figures were, Huo Yuhao could still guess.

The person who should confirm this research is Mu En, the former Dragon God Douluo and Huo Yuhao's master in the original novel.

The one who rejected it should be Xuanzi, Taotie Douluo, also known as Chicken Leg Douluo, the Supreme Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult.

Although this is just a joke, judging from Xuanzi's actions, you really can't tell whether it's true or not.

You might say he doesn't love Shrek Academy, but in crucial moments, he's willing to fight to the death for Shrek Academy.

You say he loves Shrek Academy, but he always manages to create a bunch of messes, treating Shrek Academy like the Sun and Moon Empire.

Huo Yuhao could only comment on this: "The cunning of a bad person is no match for the quick thinking of a fool."

If Tang Shenwang could see his extraordinary wisdom being passed down at Shrek Academy, he would surely be gratified.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's somewhat dejected expression, Jiang Nannan tightened her grip on her hand hidden behind her back.

She kept pursing her lips, but never dared to say what was on her lips.

"Speak up! You shut-up, give the stuff to Master Huo right now!"

After a while, Huo Yuhao was still wondering why the sunlight was so dim today. He looked up and realized that Jiang Nannan had been standing at the door, blocking out all the sunlight.

Seeing the girl's conflicted expression, with her hands behind her back, Huo Yuhao's extraordinary wisdom began to activate.

"This scene, and this action, could it be..."

"Damn, I forgot, Douluo Continent is also known as the Continent of Love. I guess Cupid is working his magic."

"Sorry, little sister, you're a good person, but right now I just want to improve my cultivation."

"I really want to make progress!"

Huo Yuhao had already figured out how to reject her, and just as he was about to speak, Jiang Nannan finally prepared herself mentally.

She handed the things behind her to Huo Yuhao with both hands and said:

"Master, it would be better if you didn't leave things lying around next time."

"They will be tracked."

Huo Yuhao swallowed back the words he had prepared, and then he saw the bag that he had thrown away in Jiang Nannan's hand.

Huo Yuhao's mind, which had been overwhelmed by chaotic emotions, calmed down immediately. He took the bag and saw that the area that had been cut by the metal sheet had been repaired with thread.

The technique was superb, with every stitch meticulously placed, and the fabric used for the mending was of the highest quality, embroidered with a delicate little rabbit pattern.

Huo Yuhao solemnly put the bag back into his storage soul tool and said helplessly to her:

"It seems you already know."

Jiang Nannan nodded seriously to Huo Yuhao and said:

"Thank you, Master, for saving me."

"I... I don't know how to repay you, so I'll just sew up your bag." Huo Yuhao smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing to worry about.

"You are at least an apprentice at the medical clinic; according to the local custom, you could be considered half a disciple."

"Since that's the case, how can I not care if something happens to you?"

Hearing Huo Yuhao's words and the statement of the half-disciple, her pretty face flushed slightly, and her beautiful eyes seemed to ripple.

She did not deny this statement; on the contrary, she thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being recognized by Huo Yuhao.

"Um, Master, please tell me, who exactly is targeting me?"

Huo Yuhao did not hide this from her. Even if she didn't ask now, he would tell her when they parted ways in the future.

"It's the Xuanming Sect. Their second young master must be undergoing a martial soul evolution ritual, which requires a woman as part of the ritual."

"The servant of the second young master, unable to find a suitable candidate, had wicked thoughts and set his sights on you, wanting to control you and take you over as the key to the ceremony."

Jiang Nannan broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this. She knew a lot about the Xuanming Sect, since they sent people here every year to awaken the martial spirits of eligible children.

Of course, this kind of martial spirit awakening comes at a price.

Jiang Nannan herself did not have her martial soul awakening performed by them. She and her mother were originally from Tiandou City, but later moved here.

If it were their awakened martial spirit, they would have been forced to join the Xuanming Sect long ago.

There was no Spirit Hall in this era. Even if a child with innate full soul power awakened, the deacon of the Spirit Hall would only ask if the child was willing to join the Spirit Hall, rather than forcing the child to join.

"Master Huo, you'd better run! The Xuanming Sect is very powerful."

"They have at least five Title Douluo."

"If it is discovered, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Seeing Jiang Nannan's anxious expression, Huo Yuhao asked softly, "And what about you?"

Jiang Nannan shook her head, her eyes filled with anxiety, and said, "I'm fine. After all, I'm from Shrek Academy. This place isn't far from the academy, so they shouldn't lay a hand on me."

In truth, Jiang Nannan knew that the Xuanming Sect might not really be afraid of Shrek Academy, and Shrek Academy might not necessarily stand up for her.

Huo Yuhao looked at the girl, who had thought of others first even when something happened, and comforted her, saying:

"Don't worry, they won't easily find me, at least not for the time being."

"By the time they find out, I will have already left."

Jiang Nannan's body stiffened, and she lowered her head to ask, "Is Director Huo leaving?"

"Yes, I'll probably leave here around the same day you go to Shrek Academy."

Seeing that she could read his mind at a glance, Huo Yuhao said, "Don't worry, we will meet again in the future."

"Parting is not forever, it's just a little while of waiting."

"Also, remember to bring your mother with you when you go to Shrek Academy this time."

“This place is still too close to the Xuanming Sect, it’s not safe. Your mother’s body can withstand a long journey now.”

Listening to Huo Yuhao's instructions, Jiang Nannan nodded with her head lowered.

She actually hoped that the three of them could go together. After hearing the news that they had to part ways, her nose felt a little sore and she felt very sad.

I wanted to cry, but I couldn't. I didn't want him to think I was weak.

Huo Yuhao patted her head, comforting the girl in front of him.

After a long while, looking at the girl who had calmed down, he said softly, "Nannan, can I have a drop of your blood?"

Jiang Nannan didn't care at all what Huo Yuhao wanted the blood for, and simply squeezed out a drop of blood from her fingertip.

Huo Yuhao placed the drop of blood, which was still slightly warm, into his palm.

Soon, a line of small text appeared on the retina.

"Human genetic information collection is complete, and special information (the second one) has been unlocked."

At the same time, the understanding of authority has also reached 5%.
