Douluo Unrivaled: The Beginning Materializes the Black Abyss and White Flowers

Chapter 105 Assassination Outside Shrek City
Should I answer it?

Ji Yingying didn't care who the person she was going to kill was, but she was afraid that her decision might affect Lu Jingming's plans, which is why she was so cautious and asked Lu Jingming for his opinion.

Why didn't you answer? You did.

Lu Jingming's lips curled up, showing interest in the matter. If he remembered correctly, Dai Huabin had also hired assassins to kill Huo Yuhao in the original novel, but Huo Yuhao was saved by Ma Xiaotao at that time.

Now that Ma Xiaotao's evil fire has been sealed by the Mirror Stream ahead of time, she will obviously no longer have any interaction with Huo Yuhao.

Lu Jingming wanted to see if Huo Yuhao could escape danger after losing Ma Xiaotao.

This was also a test for him; could the chosen one, favored by fortune, turn misfortune into good fortune?

In any case, Dai Huabin was the one who hired the assassination. Whether the assassination succeeds or fails in the end, it will not have a substantial impact on Haiyuan City.

"Yingying, we don't need to send too many strong people on this mission. Even if we fail, it's okay. Tell them that they can evacuate at any time if the situation turns bad."

Lu Jingming only wanted to test the waters; he didn't really want to fight Huo Yuhao to the death, so there was no need for that.

Moreover, he clearly remembered that at this point in time, Huo Yuhao had already attracted the attention and importance of the higher-ups of the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy with his own talent, and had become a core disciple of the Soul Guidance Department.

Not only that, but with the help of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, he tricked the Ice Emperor into obtaining his second martial soul, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion with the ultimate ice attribute, which led the Sea God Pavilion to hold a meeting and list Huo Yuhao as a core disciple of the martial soul system, making him the first double core disciple in the history of Shrek Academy.

How will Huo Yuhao, who has already begun to rise to prominence, face the assassins of the Wuchang Division? Lu Jingming is very curious about this.

"I see."

Ji Yingying nodded and then ended the communication.

"The chosen one, huh? I'm quite interested too. My destination happens to be on my way there, so I don't mind if I join in the fun!"

As Ji Yingying's image disappeared, Mebius suddenly spoke.

"Whatever you want, just don't make a big deal out of it."

Lu Jingming said indifferently, "Mébius is very willful. Even if he disagrees, he will probably still sneak off to do it. It's better to go along with her wishes and gain some favor."

Moreover, as long as he doesn't provoke the hidden plans that Tang San, the Sea God, might have left in the Golden Tree, Mebius's safety is assured.

Because she is the 'Infinity Serpent', she is unkillable.

In the Douluo Continent map, Shrek City is located in the central part, with a permanent population of up to five million. Its prosperity is second only to the capitals of the major empires, and it is one of the most dazzling economic centers in the Douluo Continent, bustling with activity and teeming with life.

As evening approached, when the hustle and bustle should have subsided, Shrek City remained as lively as daytime.

At the city gate, the crowds of people entering and leaving the city were bustling and dense, like a tide, stretching as far as the eye could see, with all sorts of noises intertwined.

Shrek City's Treasure Pavilion, a place for exchanging treasures established by Shrek Academy, has always been a coveted treasure trove for Soul Masters, containing countless rare Soul Treasures.

At this moment, two energetic teenagers walked out of the Treasure Pavilion side by side, their faces beaming with uncontrollable smiles, clearly having made a great haul.

"I can't believe it, I actually got it!" The black-haired boy, Huo Yuhao, was overjoyed, his eyes sparkling with excitement. Even now, he was still immersed in the joy he had just experienced and was somewhat unable to come back to his senses.

Not long ago, he used his status as a core disciple of Shrek Academy's outer court to successfully help Wang Dong exchange for the Golden Light Left Arm Bone, worth 9.5 million gold soul coins, at the Treasure Pavilion.

“Your second martial soul is an ultimate attribute. The academy obviously wants to bind you firmly to the academy and deepen the connection between you and the academy. For the academy, this price is nothing.” Wang Dong has short blue-pink hair and a handsome face with a somewhat effeminate look. Compared to Huo Yuhao, he seems to have a more thorough understanding of the thoughts of the academy’s higher-ups.

“I understand, but it won’t do me any harm, will it? The academy values ​​me so much, and I will definitely repay their kindness in the future.”

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, recalling how, after winning the freshman competition, his teammates Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao both became core disciples, while he, the captain, was excluded. At that time, he was indeed filled with resentment and complaints.

But later, the Soul Guidance Department opened its doors to him and accepted him as a core disciple, which gradually dissipated much of his dissatisfaction with the academy.

With Mr. Yi's encouragement, he gradually let go of his resentment and stopped feeling sorry for himself.

Now that the college values ​​me so much, those little unpleasant memories have completely vanished.

He knew in his heart that before awakening his second martial soul, he was not qualified enough to become a core disciple, and he couldn't even meet the threshold of Shrek Academy.

If it weren't for Teacher Xiaoya's recommendation, he would never have been able to enter this top university on the mainland.

Although Shrek Academy treated him somewhat unfairly when he won the freshman championship, things have changed over time and everything is moving in a positive direction.

Now he has caring teachers and classmates, like-minded roommates like Wang Dong, and the care and support of Teacher Xiaoya and Senior Brother Beibei. This warm sense of belonging is something that the cold and austere White Tiger Duke's Mansion can never compare to.

"Let's go, let's hurry back to the academy. Tonight you absorb the whale gelatin, and I'll refine the soul bone. When we run into Dai Huabin again, I can beat him to a pulp all by myself!"

Wang Dong brandished his fist, full of vigor and confidence, his face radiating pride and pride.

Seeing Wang Dong's high spirits, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but smile.

Their trio is getting stronger step by step, and their relationship with each other is becoming closer.

Huo Yuhao's hatred for Dai Huabin never diminished; he simply learned to bury it deep within his heart. Furthermore, forcing Dai Huabin to kowtow and admit his mistake in front of everyone had allowed him to release some of the emotions that had been suppressed for so long.

"Yuhao, there's murderous intent! Be careful!" Not long after the two left Shrek City, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea suddenly issued an urgent warning.

Although Shrek Academy is located in Shrek City, it is not directly connected to the city. Therefore, if the two want to return to the academy, they must first leave the city, which gives some people with ulterior motives an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

After all, it's much easier to kill someone outside Shrek City than inside the city.

Upon receiving the reminder from Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Huo Yuhao remained outwardly calm and steady, as if nothing had happened. However, he secretly activated his mental detection sharing, alerting Wang Dong while attempting to sense the enemy's location.

Wang Dong was slightly taken aback, but he quickly received Huo Yuhao's telepathic message. He understood and cooperated with Huo Yuhao, pretending to be nonchalant, but secretly he had already activated his soul power, ready to run away at any time.

As for why we didn't choose to fight directly, is that even a question?

How could someone who dared to ambush them outside Shrek City possibly be as strong as him, a three-ring Soul Master, and Huo Yuhao, a two-ring Great Soul Master?
At this point, fleeing back to Shrek City for help would be the wisest choice; facing the enemy head-on would undoubtedly be the most foolish thing to do.

"We've been discovered, make your move!" Just then, a chilling voice suddenly rang out, and at the same time, a strange gray mist quickly spread out, sweeping towards Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong like a surging tide.

"Oh no, Yuhao, it's a spirit-type soul master! Your spiritual detection has been detected!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm exclaimed in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.

It never expected that among those who ambushed Huo Yuhao, there would be an extremely rare mental-type Soul Master, who also happened to detect Huo Yuhao's mental detection.
