In Douluo Continent, I am the mastermind behind the scenes.

Chapter 199. Wang Dong'er's Challenge!

Huo Yuhao really didn't want to destroy this beautiful relationship with his own hands. Once some words are spoken, the relationship between the two can never be repaired.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's hesitant expression, Gu Yuhan didn't press him for details. Instead, she took out a small square bottle from her bosom, uncorked it, and gulped down the liquid inside.

The next moment, Gu Yuhan rolled his eyes and fainted.

"Yuhan!"

Huo Yuhao shouted and quickly got up to grab Gu Yuhan's wrist to check her body. He was relieved to find that her pulse and heartbeat were unusually stable and that she had just fainted for some reason.

……

Late at night, Gu Yuhan glanced at Huo Yuhao, who was fast asleep, gently moved the blankets aside, got out of bed, and tiptoed to push open the bathroom door.

"Miss, you're finally back! I thought..."

Inside the bathroom, Zi Ying knelt on the floor, looking at Gu Yuhan, who was both familiar and unfamiliar to her, and tears streamed down her face.

"Alright, you're a grown man, why are you still crying and sobbing here? Although the plan went a little wrong, the goal was still achieved. I can sense... the shackles binding me have disappeared. Our initial idea of ​​attracting otherworldly souls was correct."

As she spoke, Gu Yuhan felt a wave of dizziness and lightheadedness wash over her, and two completely different memories slowly surfaced in her mind.

"Miss, Miss, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Seeing her master's pained expression, Zi Ying rushed forward, hugged Gu Yuhan in her arms, grabbed his arm, and made as if to examine his body.

Just then, Gu Yuhan's body suddenly trembled. The next moment, she looked as if she had just woken up, tilting her head and looking at Zi Ying in front of her with a puzzled expression, asking, "Aunt Zi, what are you doing? I, I don't do lesbian stuff."

Upon hearing this, Zi Ying's heart skipped a beat. Oh no, her young lady... seems to have gone too far.

Zi Ying forced a smile and said, "You were sleeping, and then you suddenly got up and crawled into the bathroom with your eyes closed the whole time. I thought something had happened to you... Alright, since you don't feel uncomfortable, just take a shower and go back to sleep."

After saying that, Ziying walked out of the bathroom without looking back.

Gu Yuhan slumped in the bathroom, a question nagging at her: Had she ever sleepwalked before? How come she suddenly started sleepwalking?

Or perhaps... the potion from the system check-in wasn't effective, and the original owner's soul wasn't completely devoured by her, still existing in her body as a remnant soul, vying for control of her body?

"If I can't even trust an omnipotent system, who else in this world can I trust? It's probably just a side effect of absorbing the original owner's soul. I guess she had a habit of sleepwalking, and now she's inherited it from me."

Gu Yuhan murmured something, then walked out of the bathroom, took off her dress, and returned to the bed, where she hugged her brother Yuhao and fell asleep again.

……

"Yuhan, Yuhan, wake up! It's morning already. Get up and wash up quickly, we still have a long way to go."

Hearing the voice beside her, Gu Yuhan, still half asleep, subconsciously rubbed her forehead. Shouldn't she be talking to Ziying in the bathroom? How... how did she end up traveling to the next morning without any warning?

Before Gu Yuhan could think further, she forced herself to get out of bed despite feeling unwell, her eyes filled with disgust as she looked at Huo Yuhao.

Although Huo Yuhao himself couldn't discern any difference in appearance, he was, after all, a Soul Master, and could distinguish between goodwill and malice by sensing auras.

"Yu, Yuhan, what's wrong with you today? Did I do something to upset you?"

Huo Yuhao stammered, "I feel like... Gu Yuhan is different today than before."

Gu Yuhan pouted, looking unhappy, and said, "Help me get dressed, then...feed me, and then carry me to the carriage. You keep saying you like me, you should be able to do this, right?"

Huo Yuhao: "..."

A conjecture couldn't help but surface in Huo Yuhao's mind.

Could it be that... the Gu Yuhan in front of us has a different soul, and the original body defeated the intruder and regained control of the body?

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao instinctively wanted to ask, but... after experiencing so many things, he was no longer the silly and adorable emotional god Huo Yuhao. He had his own considerations for everything.

ummm

never mind!

At the very least... having another girlfriend isn't so bad; consider it interest on Gu Yuhan's investment in Tangmen.

As long as they don't reveal their true colors, to outsiders they will still appear as a loving couple. They can drag it out as long as possible; before overwhelming power, everything else seems futile. A qualified God-King should know how to leverage power, until the moment he regains his God-King status!

Coming to his senses, Huo Yuhao hurriedly took out a pure white dress from his soul tool and put it on Gu Yuhan, then wet a towel and carefully wiped Gu Yuhan's face.

After doing all this, Huo Yuhao held Gu Yuhan in his arms and walked out of the room.

Fortunately, after feeding Gu Yuhan breakfast, nothing else went wrong on the way. Around noon, the carriage entered Shrek City. After several days away, Huo Yuhao finally returned to his own little home.

Meanwhile, Aying and Yunxi were forcibly dragged back to the top-floor office of the Sea God Pavilion by Long Xiaoyao, where they continued their miserable working lives.

The two had just sat down, and before they could even see a memorial, a female Soul Master dressed as a maid rushed into the office and placed a letter on the desk.

"Ladies, this letter... was delivered by a human soul master who claims to be a high-ranking officer of the demon beast clan. It is said to be a challenge from the Demon Beast Saintess to Shrek Academy."

"A challenge?"

Aying frowned, quickly opened the envelope, unfolded the letter inside, and began reading it quickly.

At dusk, I will lead the young prodigies of the demon beast race to Shrek Academy and challenge all the talented students affiliated with Shrek Academy. The title of the number one power on the continent will belong to our demon beast race! —Dragon Butterfly Dance Wang Dong'er!

After reading the letter, Yunxi pursed her lips, her brows furrowed, and said, "There are still two hours until dusk, Sister Bingyu, what... should we do? Should we notify Senior Long and convene a meeting of the Sea God Pavilion?"
