Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings

Chapter 120 Steady as an Old Dog
After traveling for half a day, they still hadn't found any trace of the bandit group, so Ma Xiaotao had no choice but to let everyone rest and eat something on the spot to recover their soul power.

During this time, Wang Yan quietly slipped out. Huo Yuhao noticed Wang Yan's departing figure and smiled slightly.

According to the original plot, once Wang Yan started his wilderness survival, it meant that they were very close to the bandit gang's hiding place, and the real show was about to begin.

Sure enough, after a while, Wang Yan returned.

"Everyone come here for a second, I've made a new discovery."

Everyone gathered around, and several top students from the inner courtyard even showed some impatience on their faces, while Ma Xiaotao's eyes kept drifting towards Huo Yuhao.

Throughout the journey, she focused most of her attention on Huo Yuhao, seemingly afraid that another assassin might appear. Huo Yuhao was assassinated twice, and she was unable to do anything about it, which made Ma Xiaotao feel very frustrated.

"I just surveyed the surrounding area, and based on my observations along the way, I've made a few discoveries."

"Warm Mist Trees have already appeared around here. The Warm Mist Tree is a relatively rare tree species. Its heartwood can be used in medicine, and its trunk is as hard as iron, making it ideal for making various kinds of furniture. Its growth requires extremely high air quality, and it can only survive in places with very rich vegetation. I once read in an ancient book that places where Warm Mist Trees grow in large numbers must be at least fifty miles deep into the dense forest. At the same time, the Warm Mist Tree thrives in cold and shady conditions, and its heartwood has a very good auxiliary effect on Soul Masters who cultivate Yin-type Martial Souls."

"According to our intelligence, the leader of the Death Hand bandit group may be an evil soul master, and just now, I discovered this."

As he spoke, he took out a section of tree trunk from his storage soul tool. Inside the trunk was a cylindrical hole, as if it had been torn in half by something.

"This is the Wenlan Tree. The heartwood of the Wenlan Tree is deep blue, but it's gone now, meaning it was dug up. I suspect it was done by the bandit leader or his subordinates, to be used for the bandit leader's consumption. If that's the case, then there's a high probability that the enemy we're facing is an evil soul master. At the same time, it also means that we're probably not far from the enemy."

At this point, Wang Yan smiled and said, "Its tree heart not only has an auxiliary effect on soul masters who cultivate Yin-cold martial souls, but also enhances the internal organs' tolerance to Yin-cold soul power. For soul masters who cultivate Yin-cold attributes, it can be considered a good natural treasure."

“I can almost be certain that since the bandits discovered and mined the Wenlan tree heart here, their base must not be too far from here. Because this Wenlan forest is the largest I have ever seen, and that evil soul master would definitely not let it go!” Wang Yan said firmly.

After listening to Wang Yan's analysis, the inner court students exchanged glances, and couldn't help but look at this outer court teacher with new respect. Huo Yuhao also felt a bit of admiration. Although this teacher Wang Yan's personal strength was not that great, his knowledge was indeed extensive, and he deserved to be called a famous academic teacher in the academy.

Knowing they were close to the bandits' lair, the group became even more cautious, continuing to explore forward under Wang Yan's guidance.

"stop!"

Suddenly, Wang Yan shouted, and everyone saw the scene not far away through Huo Yuhao's "True Vision," and they were all delighted.

found it!
Five hundred meters away, a small hillside was covered with messy footprints, all seemingly heading downhill. In this remote, dense forest, who else could be there besides that band of bandits?
After a moment's thought and a quick glance at the surrounding terrain, Wang Yan whispered, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be a cave where they're hiding. When we make our move later, we first need to confirm their identities. Once we've confirmed they're the Hand of Death, you all know what to do, right? The reserve team will stay with me and provide reinforcements. Xiao Tao, the main attack is up to you." Having found their targets, everyone began changing their equipment, preparing for battle.

Huo Yuhao did not wear the clothes provided by the ring, but instead put on his own specially made combat suit, then put on a cloak and a mask.

To ensure the secrecy of the operation, he did not drive his own car, but instead carried the easily portable equipment and followed behind Wang Yan. Behind him were several young girls from the reserve team, with Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi bringing up the rear.

Huo Yuhao thought to himself: If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected is about to happen.

The people behind him were his pre-selected core group, not to be used as pawns to intimidate others. Given the narrow terrain of the cave, and with him holding the invincible shield in front, they should not be greatly affected.

As for those arrogant inner court students, Chen Zifeng, Ling Luochen, and Sister Xiaotao should be fine. With the invincible shield they provided, they might only suffer minor injuries and get some corpse poison, but they'll be fine after a few days of rest.

As for those arrogant guys, sigh, we gave you a chance, but you were useless.
Of all those people, only Dai Yueheng doesn't have an invincible shield. When that happens, hehehe!

After everyone had changed into their gear and regrouped, Wang Yan said in a low voice, "Get ready to go! Xiao Tao, you will still command the battle, and I will be in charge of the reserve team."

"Okay," Ma Xiaotao agreed and dashed out first.

Yao Heng and Chen Zifeng flanked her on either side, while the other four inner court disciples quickly moved in formation and stealthily made their way over.

A few seconds after they left, Wang Yan waved his hand and led the reserve team to follow.

Huo Yuhao suddenly whispered, "Stay close to me in a moment. Do not run out to participate in the battle without my orders. Although that evil soul master may only be at the level of a Soul King, given your soul power cultivation, acting rashly without knowing his specific abilities could lead to great losses."

Wang Dong'er and Di Qianqiu were the closest to Huo Yuhao, and they knew that Huo Yuhao's personality was a strange hybrid of flamboyance and caution. If you had to describe him in one sentence, it would be as still as a virgin and as swift as a mad rabbit!
In such serious hunting moments, they all had absolute trust in Huo Yuhao.

Because of Huo Yuhao's past achievements and strength, Bei Bei and the others were quite convinced of him, so they had no objections to Huo Yuhao's arrangements.

Wang Yan turned back to look at Huo Yuhao in surprise. He hadn't expected that Huo Yuhao, at such a young age, would be so much more composed and experienced than the inner court students. Moreover, the reserve team's trust in him was surprisingly high. Not to mention, even the two senior students, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, were willing to follow his orders, which was quite astonishing.
