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

Chapter 224 Bai Xiuxiu: "Tell me my name, and I'll give you a shock!"

"If this Deep Sea Demon Whale King is seeking revenge on Tang San, you should be happy, right?"

Why do you look so worried?

Through his [Dream] authority, Huo Yuhao clearly saw that the little planet spirit was now showing an expression of guilt for having made a mistake, with its fingers twisting together from time to time, and it dared not look Huo Yuhao in the eye.

The little planet spirit looked down at its toes, its originally ethereal and inclusive voice now lower in pitch.

“If it’s just about taking revenge on the sea god, then of course I’m happy.”

"But her heart was completely filled with hatred, and she had almost no reason left."

"I tried to connect with her mind, to soothe her anger, to calm her down so she could at least think normally, but I failed."

"She is very powerful, having lived for nearly a million years, and her strength is not much different from that of the former Deep Sea Demon Whale King."

“Aside from the Silver Dragon King’s child, I’m afraid only Di Tian can barely deal with her.”

"Moreover, my control over the ocean is too weak, and I have no way to establish contact with her."

"Having gone mad due to an unexpected awakening, she now kills any sea spirit beast she sees!"

"Many children in the ocean are actually innocent."

Hearing the little planet spirit's gentle yet guilty voice, Huo Yuhao looked at her with tender eyes, slowly soothing her through his [Dream] authority.

He didn't actually think it was a bad thing, mainly because he was indifferent to the ocean and the life or death of the sea spirit beasts was none of his concern.

The far north, Xilu City, Passion, and even the Magic Network—all these are on the continent, which is Huo Yuhao's base.

On the other side of the ocean, Huo Yuhao couldn't be happier if things were more chaotic. The more chaotic things were there, the more unstable the foundation of the Sea God's position would be, and the more Huo Yuhao could secretly meddle in the ocean.

The little planet spirit is, after all, the will of the planet, and it's perfectly normal for it to love its own child; Huo Yuhao expressed his respect.

However, Huo Yuhao wouldn't go to war with the Demon Emperor because the benefits and risks were completely disproportionate. He'd rather let the Demon Emperor cause trouble in the ocean.

"By the way, you're the one who sent this Demon Soul Great White Shark, right?"

"Otherwise, how could the bursting currents of the Arctic Ocean have blown her to the icy sea?"

The little planet spirit perked up again, raised its head, and said:
"right."

"Aren't you going to other continents?"

"Even with coordinates, you still need a guide at sea."

"Among the sea spirit beasts, none is more suitable to be a guide than the Demon Soul Great White Shark."

"They often wander around the ocean, have been to many places, and are very familiar with the distribution of ocean currents and various safe sea routes."

"With her help, you can easily travel to other continents."

Huo Yuhao's gentle voice reached the little planet spirit's ears through the power of dreams.

"Ah."

"Thank you."

“I do need a guide.”

The little planet spirit was very happy, lightly tapping its toes, its voice filled with joy.

"I'm glad I was able to help you. I'm heading back to the inner side of the planet now."

"I still need to maintain the planetary record."

"If you need any help later, I will do my best to assist you."

As the ethereal and gentle voice of the little planet spirit echoed across the pure white sea, the crimson figure gradually disappeared into the dream space, returning to the planet's origin.

Huo Yuhao also withdrew his "sight" and returned his consciousness to reality.

In reality, the Great White Shark next to Huo Yuhao's feet was struggling to flap its fins, trying to return to the sea.

The bait's effectiveness had waned; after all, she was a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.

Su Tong blocked the great white shark's escape route with a blank expression. If the shark got away, the teacher would probably wake up in the middle of the night in a fit of anger, and the shark would grow bigger and bigger in the teacher's memory.

"Stop struggling."

"You can't run away."

"The teacher isn't that cruel. At most, he'll cut off your shark fin. With the life force of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, you won't die."

The Demon Soul Great White Shark covered its eyes with its fins, and a beautiful female voice was tinged with sobs.

"Why is this?"

"I'm never coming here again."

"You, you guys be gentle, I'm afraid of getting hurt."

The Demon Soul Great White Shark resigned itself to its fate, extending its right fin. After thinking for a moment, it retracted its right fin and extended its left fin instead.

Su Tong smiled slightly; this Demon Soul Great White Shark was surprisingly cute.

It's quite obvious that this Demon Soul Great White Shark holds a high position in its clan; it's at least the child of an elder, otherwise it wouldn't be so well protected, appearing untouched by the filth and desolation of the wild.

"Alright, Su Tong, stop scaring her." Huo Yuhao gently squatted down, patted the shark's white belly, making a crisp "slap slap" sound, and said:
"My fish, what's your name?"

"A ten-thousand-year-old soul beast with such strong spiritual power must have a high status in its clan. It should have its own name."

The Demon Soul Great White Shark shyly swatted Huo Yuhao's hand away with its fin, its voice tinged with pride.

"Stop it! People get shy too."

"My mother is the queen of the tribe!"

"I am the pride of the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan!"

"Hmph, say my name and I'll give you a fright!"

"My name is Dong Qianqiu! My name is Dong Qianqiu! I will freeze the sea forever!"

Huo Yuhao: "Stare..."

Su Tong: "..."

"Actually, my teacher and I are both ice-attribute soul masters, and we are currently looking for advancement soul rings."

Su Tong's quiet words unexpectedly reached the ears of the proud Demon Soul Great White Shark.

Her fish body trembled, her expression gradually stiffened, and the eyes on both sides of her white fish head filled with water mist.

"I...I'm actually a fire elementalist, do you believe me? Hehehe."

"........."

"No!! My spirit rings are not suitable for you! They can't give you powerful spirit skills."

“I…I was wrong! I…I’m not called Dong Qianqiu, my real name is Bai Xiuxiu.”

Huo Yuhao patted Bai Xiuxiu's fish head and said:

"You should have been honest sooner."

"I think this name sounds better than Dong Qianqiu."

Bai Xiuxiu proudly turned her fish head and said:

"Humph!"

"I still think Dong Qianqiu sounds better. Bai Xiuxiu is too rustic. I'll ask my mother to change my name when I get back!"

Huo Yuhao really wanted to tell her that this was probably impossible, as the Deep Sea Demon Whale King had probably already killed her entire family by now, unless the Sea God intervened.

However, given Poseidon's current situation, it's unlikely he'll intervene.

In other words, the great shark in front of us has very likely already gloriously obtained the Innate Bridge-Blocking Sacred Body.

Huo Yuhao didn't intend to explain the situation to her directly; he just wanted her to go back and check it out herself.

"Alright, Bai Xiuxiu, right?"

"I won't kill you, but you've eaten so much of my bait, so I can't just let it go like this. Go back and bring me some underwater specialties from your home as compensation."

Bai Xiuxiu suddenly raised her shark head, looking at Huo Yuhao with hopeful eyes, and said:

"Are you willing to let me go?"

Huo Yuhao stood up, put away his fishing rod, and said:
"Shark meat doesn't taste good, and we don't even want your spirit rings."

"Go back now, and remember to bring me some local specialties."

Unbeknownst to Bai Xiuxiu, a strange eye mark appeared on her tail fin.

"it is good!"

"I will definitely bring you the most delicious dragon scale octopus and deep-sea spirit pearl shells from the ocean!"

"I'll be quick, you just need to wait here for two days."

Bai Xiuxiu jumped around excitedly, causing the damp sand around her to scatter everywhere.

Huo Yuhao used his telekinesis to lift the fish up, then threw it forcefully. The fish traced a beautiful arc in the air before landing in the water with a perfect posture, splashing up tiny droplets that would make the Philippine fishing team blush with shame.

Bai Xiuxiu returned to the sea, excitedly leaping out of the water. With a flick of her tail, the water splashed in the air, drawing a heart shape, before speeding towards the Arctic Ocean.

Huo Yuhao waved to Su Tong and said:
"Let's go, I'll form a soul contract for you."

Su Tong carried a bucket of fish, which was empty. She tilted her head slightly and said:
"Teacher, should we just let it go like this?"

Huo Yuhao looked at the sea and said:
"Let her leave."

"But she will be back soon, and the sea is not calm anymore."

"This hungry shark probably has nowhere to go."

Su Tong nodded thoughtfully. Hearing her teacher say that, it seemed that something had happened on the other side of the sea, and the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan might have met with misfortune.

As for how the teacher knew, she always trusted the teacher's intelligence network.
