Ye Xishui's eyes fell on the crowd cheering for her for a long time, but Huo Yuhao felt that she was not looking at these evil soul masters. It would be better to say that these people have never been in her eyes.

He turned his attention to Long Xiaoyao behind Ye Xishui. He and his friends met Long Xiaoyao once. Although it was to save Xu He's life, the opportunity was rare, so he also invited Long Xiaoyao to compete with his friends. At that time, he didn't know that this Extreme Douluo who lived deep in the Sun and Moon Empire was actually working for the Holy Spirit Sect.

Long Xiaoyao's eyes stayed on Ye Xishui and did not notice Huo Yuhao's gaze. Huo Yuhao was originally worried that Long Xiaoyao would recognize his disguise, but looking at it now, he might not even pay much attention to himself. He doesn’t care about anything the Holy Spirit teaches.

After the shouts calmed down a bit, Ye Xishui glanced at Zhong Liwu. Zhong Liwu nodded slightly and showed respect to her. "Let's reorganize it," her tone lost its previous excitement and became dull, "The royal family may have made some moves recently, but they don't dare to openly quarrel with us now. They will only treat us in various ways. Constraints.”

"I understand, mother." Zhong Liwu lowered his voice, "If they go too far, I will make a scene and kill a few people in the city. I understand that they don't really have the manpower to deal with me."

"Yes." Ye Xishui acquiesced to his approach, "Based on the situation in the city, the fourth prince who came to power in this incident should only be related to the Terrorclaw Soul Mentor Group. During this period, he is reorganizing the legacy of the imperial city. The matter should be more difficult. Unfortunately, it was Xu Tianran who asked us to harm him in the first place, and he will no longer trust us."

"I understand what mother means." Huo Yuhao felt that Zhong Liwu seemed to want to please Ye Xishui. "I will send people to contact the nobles and troops that are now available to infiltrate more of the forces he wants to control."

In response to Zhong Liwu's eager expression, Ye Xishui only nodded lightly. Then, she rolled her sleeves, and although she was speaking to Zhong Liwu, she looked at Long Xiaoyao: "You can continue to deal with the rest of the matter. You are the leader. Xiaoyao and I will go back first."

"Yes." Zhong Liwu couldn't say anything more.

Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao walked down the high platform of the square. When they passed other evil soul masters, they didn't dare to breathe a sigh of relief. The whole square was silent, and you could hear a needle drop. Zhong Liwu remained motionless until their figures disappeared from the edge of the square, and then he walked back to the middle position.

Next comes some chores, as some tasks and some area leaders need to be reassigned due to the loss of personnel. The Holy Spirit Church is surprisingly not lax in doing things, at least that's how it seems here at the headquarters.

Huo Yuhao also quietly relaxed a little. His underwear was already a little damp with sweat. Just now in front of Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao, he hid the aura of his first two martial arts to the limit. Facing Zhongli Wudu didn't need to be like this, but in front of Ye Xishui, he did have a feeling of depression that he would be discovered if he showed any flaws.

After the matter was settled, Zhong Liwu finally looked over: "Saint Fire Phoenix, are you level 80?"

"Yes, leader." Ma Xiaotao bowed her head in salute. Her long dark red hair was hanging down, and the ends were a little messy. Her hair was much longer than the last time Huo Yuhao saw her. It seemed that no one in the Holy Spirit Church had ever reminded her to tidy up. Tang Ya's hair on the side is much neater. Apparently someone reminded her to get a haircut regularly.

This shows how much Zhong Liwu attaches importance to it. No wonder they and Beibei were ambushed last time when they kidnapped Tang Ya. I'm afraid Zhong Liwu had been paying close attention to Tang Ya... But Ma Xiaotao was not like this.

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao confirmed his choice. He deliberately hesitated to speak, and Zhong Liwu quickly noticed his expression: "Holy Son, do you have something to say?"

"You mentioned soul rings, and I suddenly thought of a place." Huo Yuhao considered his words, "The quality of the soul beasts in Jingyang Mountains is still inferior, and they are not worthy of the Fire Phoenix Saint."

On the other hand, there was another reason why they couldn't go to the Jingyang Mountains: the 100,000-year-old soul beast Thousand Steel Giant Crocodile contracted with Xiao Hongchen was still recovering there. The last time it was injured was due to the massive invasion of evil soul masters. If Ma Xiaotao used secret methods to obtain soul rings this time, it would probably have to hunt a large number of soul beasts.

"What place did you think of?"

"It would be very convenient if the Holy Cult had a branch in the Star Dou Forest." Huo Yuhao said carefully.

"Yeah." Zhong Liwu's reaction was too calm, which made Huo Yuhao and Chi Qiu's hearts sink and they had bad guesses. As expected, he quickly said: "We do have a branch there, but we don't often contact the headquarters. It's too close to Tianhun and Shrek, and Shrek's supervisory team is very annoying."

Huo Yuhao carefully passed on Chi Qiu's spiritual power to suppress the anger in her heart.

"My ability is very convenient for avoiding those in the Supervisory Group." He immediately lowered his eyes, showing the humble expression he often used in front of Zhong Liwu, "If you let me protect the Fire Phoenix Saint, you won't encounter any trouble."

"It's okay." Zhong Liwu agreed not too happily. He seemed to be thinking about something, "But if I let you two go, I don't want to limit the matter to as simple as obtaining the soul ring for the Fire Phoenix Saint. To dispatch such an important combat force, we need to bring back something. Do you know the secret soul bone?"

"Is it possible to produce soul bones by killing soul beasts in large quantities?" Huo Yuhao pretended to be unsure.

"Exactly. The soul beasts in Jingyang Mountains can't bear the torment, but the Star Dou Forest should be able to. It just so happens that I have a soul bone that I want to fuse with the Blue Silver Saint, but I'm afraid that she won't be able to withstand it. With the secret soul bone, things will go smoothly. . How about it, Holy Son, this task shouldn’t be difficult for you.”

Huo Yuhao tightened his grip on his cane, but his tone was still so hollow and hesitant: "...it's not difficult to say, but it's a bit difficult. Summoning a large number of undead creatures will cause great fluctuations in soul power. I heard that there are several powerful people awake in the Star Dou Forest. Or, I'm afraid of attracting them."

Zhong Liwu looked thoughtful. However, Chi Qiu understood very well what Huo Yuhao said to her. She pretended to think about it for a few seconds and then took a step forward: "Leader, it is up to me to obtain the secret soul bone. I am coordinating this assassination operation but I am not responsible for it." I feel guilty towards the Holy Religion, please give me a chance to make amends."

"Oh?" Zhong Liwu looked at her, "Can you hold on with your soul power? I heard from the third elder and the fourth elder that the battle at the gate of the city cost you quite a lot. It should be the internal intelligence that Xu Tianran agreed to Don't let it go, he did something wrong. You are not to blame for what happened this time."

Chiqiu swallowed calmly. That Xu Zimi chose to continue fighting because she underestimated herself... I'm afraid until she was actually killed, she thought she was just acting according to Zhong Liwu's request.

"It's more than enough to obtain a secret soul bone." She said in a firm tone, as if she was truly determined to atone for her sins.

"But the three of them are dispatched at the same time, so I'm still a little worried." Zhong Liwu was still hesitating, which made Huo Yuhao feel helpless. It was really hard to talk. It can be seen that he really cares about the Holy Son and Saint Daughter, but he only cares about his best weapon: it is probably similar to wanting to use the best knife at the most critical time, rather than blunt it in ordinary times. .

Huo Yuhao thought for a while and then said: "If you think it is a waste of manpower, we can also expand the Holy Spirit Cult branch in Xingdou, so that it will be more convenient for everyone who needs soul rings in the future. Moreover, the current situation in the Sun and Moon Empire is not good. The environment of the Three Cunning Rabbits and Star Dou is somewhat similar to that of the Demonic Forest."

As expected, this condition convinced Zhong Liwu. He made a decision: "Okay. Then I'll leave these things to the three of you. Take this."

As he said that, Zhong Liwu took out three small black square soul guides from his robe: "Before the coup, the results of Mingdetang's delivery to the royal family were small communication soul guides. Use them and take them there. The Holy Spirit Church branch next to us will make it easier to contact the two sides in the future.”

The three people immediately stepped forward to take it. When Huo Yuhao took it, he felt it was heavy, not because of the weight of the soul guide, but because he thought that during the regency of Xu Tianran, many of the cutting-edge achievements submitted by Mingdetang were probably used by the Holy Spirit Cult. The Holy Spirit Cult's soul guidance level is probably higher than Shrek's.

"Master, let's set off today." Huo Yuhao nodded to Zhongli Wu, "It should not be delayed to improve the cultivation of the Fire Phoenix Saint."

……

The three of them walked out of the Holy Spirit Cult base. Huo Yuhao proposed a detour, claiming that it would be difficult for the three of them to enter the current Ming capital. So they detoured out of the Evil Forest and took the path Huo Yuhao and Chi Qiu had been brought back by Zhong Liwu, in the direction of Xishan.

This road is very desolate. Except for a few remote villages, it can be called deserted. There are endless mountains and mountains. They flew for half a day, and it was almost dusk. When they saw a deserted low-lying valley, Huo Yuhao suddenly stopped.

"Why aren't you leaving?" asked Ma Xiaotao, who had been following him. Huo Yuhao turned around and looked into her eyes. They were the eyes of a ruthless killing machine.

"Qiu'er," he asked, "How does your fire compare to her fire?"

"We can win." Chi Qiuyan replied concisely, "It's just that I am the fire of light. There is no suppression, only confrontation with her evil fire. I'm afraid that if her meridians are burned out, what you do will be meaningless. ”

"Then I'll do it." Huo Yuhao nodded, moved his wrist, and showed a happy smile. His arms began to glow with an icy green light.

"I don't dare to use any Ultimate Ice in the Holy Spirit Cult. I'm so frustrated!"

The moment the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Martial Spirit burst out, Ma Xiaotao also felt threatened. A loud phoenix cry sounded, and terrifying purple-black flames burned all over her body. In just an instant, the surrounding hay grass burned to ashes, rolling and steaming in the heat wave. In the next second, it formed into pieces of ice in the air, falling heavily to the ground like rain. Huo Yuhao stretched out his left arm and made a fist. The crispy pieces of ice were like miniature bombs, exploding next to Ma Xiaotao. The light from Huo Yuhao's left arm flashed, and before Ma Xiaotao had a chance to react, a second explosion occurred.

The silver phantom in the Tower of Memory left him with more than just an improvement in mental power. Now that he had used the ultimate ice, he found that his soul power had also undergone a qualitative change, and he became more and more comfortable in manipulating ice.

The ice mist dissipated a little, and Ma Xiaotao fell to the ground, but she still managed to stay conscious. The flames on her body lost most of their momentum, but part of them remained. Her instinct seemed to be aroused by the battle. With a scream, blood-red meteors hit Huo Yuhao and Chi Qiu overwhelmingly. At the same time, Huo Yuhao clearly saw the soul ring beside Ma Xiaotao: six black and one red!
This was not a normal soul ring ratio, it was naturally the work of the Holy Spirit Cult. The Phoenix Meteor Shower in front of them was also very different from its previous power. However, the Huo Yuhao now is completely different from the Huo Yuhao he had when he fought her twice.

Huo Yuhao smiled, and a dazzling white snow covered the land in front of him. A blizzard fell from the sky, extinguishing the violent Phoenix Meteor Shower. Ma Xiaotao began to tremble all over, but she still refused to give up, as if there was nothing left in her life except fighting.

She clasped her hands tightly in the snow and let out a terrifying low roar. Then her blood-red seventh soul ring shone brightly, and her whole body was gradually covered by the unquenchable black fire, turning into a scorching black phoenix in the white snow. . The martial soul's true form is her last resort.

Facing her last ditch effort, Huo Yuhao remained calm and calm.

"I also need to use my martial soul's true form." He said, "My Ice Emperor's martial spirit doesn't seem to have the seventh soul ring attached yet - but, this can also be regarded as the 'martial spirit's true form', right?"

Behind him, the shadow of the Ice Emperor appeared immediately. The figure of the green woman was almost solid. Huo Yuhao used half of his mental strength to support her appearance. Her cold golden eyes just glared at the black phoenix, which froze in place in the attacking posture it had just assumed.

"Ice Emperor," Huo Yuhao seemed to be still a little excited about experimenting, "I want to see if you can increase my power in this way."

Hyokui nodded slightly and put his hand on his shoulder. Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, and his hands began to be covered with diamond-like ice crystals. Covered by the snowy dancing sun, these fine ice crystals seemed to reflect even more brilliant fire colors. He walked in front of Black Phoenix in two steps, and the green cold air began to gather between his palms. Then, he pushed the cold air towards Black Phoenix -

The Wrath of the Ice King!
This was a blow that the Ice Emperor mobilized his strength and Huo Yuhao combined forces to complete. In an instant, there was a loud sound like a boulder falling to the ground, and the sudden burst of ice fog covered everything. The valley as far as the eye could see was covered with ice, and not even the temperature of the fire could be felt.

When the ice mist dissipated, the black phoenix had dissipated. Ma Xiaotao, who had released his martial soul's true form, was sealed in ice crystals. He tilted his head and looked in pain, as if he was fighting against something.

"Let's seal it for a while." Huo Yuhao pressed the ice cube to make sure it was well frozen. "The Holy Spirit Cult has activated the evil fire too deeply. It cannot be relieved in one or two strokes, and it will not last long. "

"Then we wait here?" Chi Qiu, who had been watching Huo Yuhao use the Ultimate Ice, finally walked up to her and said, "Let me confirm her condition. I am more sensitive to the soul power of fire."

"Okay." Huo Yuhao moved his wrist again and said suddenly, "This scene... I suddenly remembered something from the past."

"Huh?" Chi Qiu tilted her head and looked at him.

"We were almost killed by her when we were at Poseidon Lake. Also, when we participated in the competition for the first time, although we made a lot of preparations, she almost killed senior Lin Xi and injured several of our seniors. I remember Chen Senior An was almost burned to ashes by her."

Huo Yuhao turned to look at Chi Qiu, with some nostalgia in his eyes: "The first thing is that it was your words that made me realize the seriousness of it, and I made the decision to leave Shrek. Although I don't know what will happen if I stay. No matter what, I am very satisfied with my subsequent life at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. Moreover, that day was also the first time the two of us worked together like that."

"The second thing is that when we participated in the competition together, I was still very nervous and needed to hold your hand. Because you were the one who accompanied me all the way at that time, and everything in front of me was so unknown. Only by getting close Only you can make me feel safe and believe in myself.”

"And now..."

Huo Yuhao stepped forward, held one of Chi Qiu's hands, and turned to look at the frozen Ma Xiaotao. "The opponents that were so difficult to defeat in the past are no longer so important."

"Because you have been working so hard," Chi Qiu squeezed it back hard, and the slight heat in their palms was transmitted to each other in the ice and snow created by Huo Yuhao himself, "You deserve the victory you have now."

"The opponent in front of us is more difficult to deal with now." Huo Yuhao looked into her eyes. Although they were both covered in the gray disguise of evil soul masters, when they looked at each other, both pairs of eyes were shining brightly. Huo Yuhao saw two little selves in his ruby-like eyes.

"Although things have been going well during this period, the Holy Spirit Cult is a dragon in a tiger's den after all, and the threat of the Silver Dragon King is always there. And I... I also have a time limit to grow. In ten years, I only have less than five years left. We have all seen how powerful that figure is in Qiankun Wenqing Valley. In less than five years, I will have to fight against an opponent of that strength. "

"Although I believe in myself, there will still be some unavoidable pressure in my heart. If I feel nervous-"

Chiqiu gently grabbed his hand and put it against her heart: "Then hold my hand just like you did in the first competition, as long as you can still feel at ease from me."

"……OK."

Huo Yuhao laughed softly. He came closer, rubbed his forehead against hers, gently rubbed her hair disguised as gray, and the tip of his nose touched hers. The warm breath hit the side of Huo Yuhao's face, bringing a slightly itchy touch.

He put his free hand around Chi Qiu's shoulder, and gently pressed on the back of her neck, with a very light force, as if asking. Chi Qiu smiled. She took out her hand and held the side of Huo Yuhao's face, and quickly leaned closer.

A warm touch came from the corners of his lips.

The wind and snow subsided unknowingly, and the owner of Xuewu Yaoyang focused all his attention on his lover, exchanging warmth with her lips and teeth. It was quiet all around, as if the world had stopped in the heavy snow, waiting for the hard-working lovers to slowly enjoy this stolen moment.

After a long time, the two slowly separated. Chi Qiu stretched out her hand to hug Huo Yuhao tightly, and spoke slowly in his ear: "Yuhao, actually, I have been feeling inexplicable heartache since I entered the tower of memory you mentioned. There is obviously no reason, I just I feel like if I don’t find you soon, I’m going to lose you.”

"But the moment I saw you, all these sadness and heartache disappeared. It doesn't matter, I said to myself, because I know you will definitely come to me."

"Yes." Huo Yuhao hugged her back hard and gently rubbed her long hair with the side of his face, "I will definitely come to your side. If you are also uneasy, I hope I can make you feel at ease."

They spoke slowly and talked about some small things from the past, even if they were boring. There are endless words to say. For more than five years, they have been by each other's side, experiencing every common detail.

It wasn't until the ice crystals that had frozen Ma Xiaotao showed some signs of melting that Huo Yuhao stood up and slapped it with his palm to strengthen the ice layer. Chi Qiu also returned to the business: "The matter of the secret soul bone has been settled like this, what are you going to do?"

"Find a way to get it from Shrek." Huo Yuhao said, "The people they rescued did not include Beibei who did not participate in this operation. Although it is not very moral, at this time, we can only use him as a hostage. Oh, in that case, let’s contact Brother Xiao, Beibei is still with him and Wang Dong.”

As if telepathically, before Huo Yuhao took out the communication soul guide, it lit up on its own. Huo Yuhao looked at the traces of soul power displayed above. It was Xiao Hongchen's.

"It seems that Brother Xiao has something to do with me. Just in time." Huo Yuhao connected to Xiao Hongchen's communication, "Brother Xiao?"

Xiao Hongchen's voice came with a soul-processed noise: "Yuhao, where are you now? There are some things that are not convenient for the communicator to talk about. Let's talk in person."

"I also have something to talk to you about." Huo Yuhao nodded, "I am approaching the location of Xishan. Well, it is the location where you came to support me."

"Isn't that very close to the Jingyang Mountains?" Xiao Hongchen said, "Let's meet in the village at the mountain pass. I'll tell His Highness and come right away."

"Are you with His Highness Xu Tianling?" Huo Yuhao thought about it and was not surprised. At this time, he should really need the support of Mingdetang.

"Yeah. Let's talk about more things. See you later." (End of Chapter)
