Huo Yuhao was pretending to work when, for some reason, he felt a chill down his spine. He turned around and saw Gu Yuena staring indifferently at his movements, her bright eyes revealing a faint coldness.

In an instant, his movements quickened, and he quickly dealt with the plant-type soul beast and presided over the signing of the contract for Ye Lingling.

This time, he also obtained a piece of left leg bone, but it was too young, so Huo Yuhao didn't let Ye Lingling absorb it. Instead, he told her to take it back to her mother.

While Ye Lingling was absorbing the soul ring, Huo Yuhao, as always, activated his mental detection. At this moment, a group of people rushed into his detection range, causing him to raise an eyebrow.

He never expected to encounter Tang San and his group in the Sunset Forest. What surprised him even more was that Tang San and his group were tracking a human-faced demon spider.

Huo Yuhao was somewhat surprised and curious. He wanted to know, given how far he had gone through the butterfly effect, could Tang San still obtain the Eight Pig Hairs from the Human-Faced Demon Spider like in the original story?

Chapter 327 Xiao Wu's Guide

Huo Yuhao's gaze was deep as he quietly observed the movements of Tang San and his group through the mental detection.

During this soul hunt, Zhao Wuji was the most powerful member of Tang San's team. Tang Hao did not secretly follow Tang San and it was unknown where he went. Perhaps he was recuperating from his injuries sustained in the last battle.

The Human-Faced Demon Spider was eventually captured by Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun, while Xiao Wu took advantage of the chaos to slip away from the group alone, wanting to find a place to condense her spirit ring.

After hunting the Man-Faced Demon Spider, Tang San began absorbing spirit rings, and Huo Yuhao used his spiritual power to more meticulously probe the changes in Tang San's body.

On Tang San's back, he indeed discovered a gathering of unusual energy, which was clearly the external soul bone, Eight Pig Hair.

Huo Yuhao smiled, turned his gaze to Gu Yuena, and said softly, "I'll leave this place to you for now. Protect them, I have to leave for a while."

The girl tilted her head, remained silent, and looked at him. A slight ripple emanated from her body, then she suddenly calmed down, her ethereal voice taking on a serious tone.

"That person has the aura of Asura God power on him, be careful."

"I can spare it."

Huo Yuhao waved his hand, and spatial elements enveloped him. In the next instant, he arrived in front of Xiao Wu, who was sitting cross-legged and condensing her soul ring.

After Xiao Wu finished condensing her soul rings, she opened her eyes and saw the figure that both terrified and frightened her. The pink-gold eyes were calmly watching her, as if they could capture her mind and see through her heart. The hateful face had a faint smile on it, but there was no real joy in it.

It's him! Huo Yuhao!

"Little rabbit, we meet again."

Huo Yuhao's voice was devoid of any emotion, causing Xiao Wu to tense up and raise her guard to the maximum, her pink eyes fixed on him.

"Actually, you don't need to be wary of me. It's not that I won't hurt you, but no matter how wary you are, it won't do any good." Huo Yuhao's voice was teasing as he looked at the girl in front of him with great interest.

"What...what do you want with me?" Xiao Wu asked, trying to remain calm.

"It's nothing, I'm just a little curious. I reminded you last time, why haven't you gone back to the Star Dou Great Forest yet?" Huo Yuhao asked.

"Uncle Tang Hao told me he wouldn't hurt me! Don't even think about trying to drive a wedge between me and Xiao San!" Xiao Wu said, clenching her fist.

"Are you so sure he won't hurt you?" Huo Yuhao chuckled.

"Of course, he told me that Xiao San is his child with another 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast. He has no prejudice against transformed soul beasts and will protect me and Xiao San!"

Huo Yuhao glanced at Xiao Wu in surprise, clicked his tongue twice in amazement, and shook his head, saying, "You actually believed it."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Wu glared at Huo Yuhao, feeling inexplicably despised.

Huo Yuhao turned around and headed in Tang San's direction, saying as he walked, "I don't want to talk to idiots."

As for Xiao Wu, he doesn't necessarily want to take her body and soul away from Tang San. Although it would be exciting to put her and Dong'er together, since she wants to follow Tang San to the bitter end, he won't stop her.

Watching Huo Yuhao's departing figure, Xiao Wu became anxious, "Hey, stop right there!"

Huo Yuhao looked at the girl who had run up to him and blocked his way, and said calmly, "Is there anything else?"

"Was it you who caused the mistress's strange behavior?" The girl glared at Huo Yuhao, meeting his indifferent gaze. The coldness in the boy's eyes made her involuntarily weaken, and her eyes unconsciously drifted away.

Huo Yuhao stamped his foot and said jokingly, "Are you saying that Tang San fell in love with Oscar? I didn't do it."

Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief, then heard the boy continue:

"After all, I can't control who he falls for. I just awakened the feminine side in him. I originally wanted him to fall for Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, who were the two I specially prepared for his harem. But I didn't expect Tang San to be so devoted and only like good-looking people, which was a waste of my good intentions."

Huo Yuhao's tone was somewhat regretful, as if he had missed a good show.

"So, the mistress's strange behavior was your doing?" Xiao Wu clenched and unclenched her fists. If she weren't really no match for the person opposite her, she would have definitely rushed up and tackled him.

"I suppose so. But Tang San might even thank me, because I'm the one who helped him find his true love. As for you, your final fate will probably be to become Tang San's spirit ring after he can absorb a 100,000-year spirit ring. After all, you can't become his daughter-in-law under these circumstances."

Huo Yuhao looked at Xiao Wu with a half-smile. She seemed frightened by the future he described, her face pale, staring at him indignantly.

Finally, realizing just how frail she truly was, the girl's gaze softened, and she pleaded, "Can you turn the mistress into a normal person?"

A wish? Did he just get lucky? Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat, but he wasn't in a hurry to help Xiao Wu fulfill her wish. He had no interest in letting someone else get something for free.

Furthermore, based on his observations over this period, the amount of power one receives depends on the strength of the other person's obsession and the strength of their luck.

At this point, Xiao Wu was clearly not in a great hurry to get Tang San back to normal, and the reason for this was that Oscar was not interested in Tang San, which made Xiao Wu think that she still had a chance.

With this in mind, Huo Yuhao had an idea.

"Why should I help you?" Huo Yuhao looked at Xiao Wu with great interest.

Noticing the aggressiveness in his gaze, Xiao Wu immediately took two steps back, her eyes filled with wariness. "I will never sell my body, so give up on that idea!"

"You're a rabbit that's been around for 100,000 years, and you're still pretending to be innocent? You've probably had countless rabbit offspring already, do you think I'd be interested in you?" Huo Yuhao's eyes showed contempt.

Xiao Wu's fair face flushed red instantly, and she said angrily, "You're talking nonsense! I don't have any rabbit grandchildren!"

Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow and smiled, "I've researched rabbits. The breeding cycle of rabbits is usually around fifty days. Even if you have four baby rabbits in one litter, and you have two litters a year, and you live for 100,000 years, your rabbit offspring would be countless."

Xiao Wu clenched her fists, her eyes filled with anger, but having been beaten before, she could only suppress her embarrassment and explain, "Those were ordinary rabbits, but soul beasts are different! Once they become soul beasts, their fertility rate drops rapidly. My mother has only had one daughter, me, all these years! I've never had any rabbit offspring! If we were to calculate it this way, our Soft Bone Rabbit clan would have unified the Star Dou Great Forest long ago!"

Huo Yuhao hadn't investigated the birth rate of soul beasts, but he did know that there were ordinary wild beasts on the Douluo Continent, those that couldn't become soul beasts even if they lived for more than ten years. The livestock raised by ordinary people were like that.

He was quite surprised when he first found out, but thinking about it, it made sense. If any wild beast could become a soul beast after ten years of raising, and any plant could become a ten-thousand-year soul beast after ten thousand years of growth, then the Star Dou Great Forest would simply become a paradise for plant-type soul beasts.

The Starry Sky Forest has many ancient trees that are tens of thousands of years old, or even hundreds of thousands of years old.

Chapter 328 Tang San: Xiao Ao, how can I live without you?

"Alright, I believe you have no more bastards!" Huo Yuhao's lips curled up. "Since you've explained so much to prove your innocence, I'll grant your wish and agree to help Tang San return to normal at your own expense."

"Huh?" Xiao Wu was dumbfounded. "When did I say I would sacrifice myself?"

"Then why did you explain so much?" Huo Yuhao shrugged. "I thought you were trying to sell yourself."

Xiao Wu's face flushed red as she glared at Huo Yuhao and said angrily, "Even if I die, I will not let you succeed."

As soon as she finished speaking, she tossed her braid and headed in the direction where Tang San and the others were.

Huo Yuhao watched this scene with a deep gaze, his heart unmoved, until Xiao Wu's figure disappeared into the distance. Then, he teleported to the depths of Sunset Forest.

Looking around, the vibrant forest was peaceful and serene, and there seemed to be no trace of soul beasts within a radius of several miles.

But, actually, it does exist.

This is the territory of a Vajra Ape, a 60,000-year-old soul beast. Huo Yuhao came here specifically for it.

The Vajra Ape is sexually promiscuous and has a preference for humanoid creatures, regardless of gender. Once captured, it will torture and abuse the animal to death before eating it.

Huo Yuhao used simulation to transform into Oscar's appearance, with peach blossom eyes, a very pale face, and a weak, easily bullied look.

With a faint smile on his lips, he teleported to the front of the Vajra Ape.

Upon seeing his sudden appearance, the Vajra Ape was clearly taken aback for a moment, then revealed an excited expression, pounding its chest with both arms and letting out a long roar.

A faint golden light shone in Huo Yuhao's eyes, deflecting the mental attack from the beast before him, and he stood still without moving.

That's right, the roar of the Vajra Ape is a form of mental attack, and his excited chest-pounding is just a cover-up.

Seeing that he was still standing in the same place, the Vajra Ape reached out to grab him, but Huo Yuhao dodged it with a teleportation.

A powerful surge of spiritual energy swept out, enveloping the Vajra Ape and beginning to subtly influence it with mental suggestions.

Huo Yuhao thus dodged while subtly influencing the consciousness of the beast before him.

Finally, the impact is complete.

Huo Yuhao smiled with satisfaction, glanced at the Vajra Ape that wouldn't give up until it caught "him", mobilized spatial elements, and in the next instant, the man and the beast disappeared from the spot.

At Shrek Academy's headquarters, Tang San had already absorbed the spirit ring and, after experimentation, successfully absorbed the Eight Spider Lances into his body.

Although he didn't know what those eight spider legs were, the improvement he received from absorbing the spirit ring this time far exceeded that of ordinary spirit rings. Therefore, he felt that these eight spider legs might not be a bad thing.

When I get back, I'll ask my learned teacher, Yu Xiaogang, and I'm sure I'll get an answer.

Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to Oscar beside him, his eyes softening, "Next, all we need to do is get Oscar a spirit ring."

Oscar felt a chill run down his spine when he saw Tang San's affectionate gaze. He forced a smile and said, "Little San, have you forgotten? Xiao Wu hasn't obtained a spirit ring either."

"Oh right, I almost forgot, Xiao Wu hasn't obtained her spirit ring yet either." Tang San suddenly remembered Xiao Wu. "Speaking of which, where is Xiao Wu? We were chasing this human-faced demon spider, and Xiao Wu seemed to disappear while we were chasing it. I didn't even notice her."

Xiao Wu, who had just sneaked back to the camp: "."

"Xiao San, you've already forgotten me like this?" Xiao Wu stared at Tang San in disbelief.

Tang San smiled sheepishly, "The situation was urgent at the time. I had to deal with the Man-Faced Demon Spider and also be wary of it harming Xiao Ao. I didn't pay attention to you for a moment."

It's Xiao Ao again!
