Peerless: Tang San, this time Huo Yuhao is the attacker.

Xiao Xiao, with a coquettish expression, raised her hand as if to hit Huo Yuhao, but was startled and stopped abruptly by Wang Dong's sudden shout.

If most people hadn't been stunned by the price of the Golden Earth Dragon King's Soul Bone and left, leaving this area deserted, Wang Dong's shout would have turned many people around.

Xiao Xiao mechanically turned her head. She had been genuinely startled by Wang Dong's voice; the emotion contained in that "No" was too intense.

Wang Dong realized that he had overreacted and began to brainstorm a reasonable excuse.

A hint of suspicion flickered in Xiao Xiao's eyes as she stared intently at Wang Dong, rubbing her chin with her hand.

"Wang Dong, what's with your reaction? You've been acting strangely from the beginning, all jumpy and easily startled. Could it be that you really like Yuhao?"

After Xiao Xiao finished speaking, she immediately realized the ambiguity in her words and quickly added, "Of course, I didn't mean to discriminate against you. After all, love doesn't discriminate based on gender."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong, who was still trying to come up with an excuse, didn't even bother to find one anymore. A dangerously dangerous smile appeared on his face. "Xiao Xiao, I've said it before, my sexual orientation is perfectly normal."

"Haha, of course I know you like girls, Wang Dong. I was just trying to lighten the mood. Let's continue looking at this soul bone; it's really beautiful!"

Meeting Wang Dong's pinkish-blue eyes, those jewel-like bright eyes sent a chill down Xiao Xiao's spine, and goosebumps rose all over her body. She quickly forced a smile and changed the subject.

Xiao Xiao turned to look at the golden light on the left arm bone, concealing the doubt in her eyes, while planting a seed of inquiry in her heart.

Wang Dong's behavior is really strange...

Huo Yuhao found the game between the two amusing. His words about pursuing Xiao Xiao greatly stimulated Wang Dong, causing her to instinctively object without even thinking.

That's a really good response.

"That's really good. I'll go talk to the counter and say something. Something of this caliber should be delivered directly to the academy."

Seeing that Wang Dong was so red he was about to explode, Huo Yuhao cooperated with Xiao Xiao to change the subject.

"No, that won't do." Seeing this, Wang Dong finally regained her composure. She looked at Huo Yuhao with a firm gaze.

"Yuhao, this red card is not free. Whatever you take from here, you will have to return it later."

The college just wants you to take things from here; they want to tie your future to their profits.

"Wang Dong, I think I've said it before, I'm an orphan."

Upon hearing Wang Dong's words, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but chuckle, preparing to move her heart once more.

"I have nowhere else to go, so let me be tied up."

Besides, what's wrong with staying in the academy? The Soul Guidance Department feels as welcoming as home to me.

Bringing things from home to make my loved ones happy seems like a great deal, don't you think?

Wang Dong was stunned, her lips slightly pursed. Her eyes softened considerably; Huo Yuhao's seemingly casual yet unwavering words had undoubtedly touched the softest spot in her heart.

"Yuhao is so biased, I want a soul bone too." Xiao Xiao pretended to be sad and said to Huo Yuhao in a coquettish tone, unable to hide the envy in her eyes.

"Xiao Xiao, you are also my beloved, I will not favor one over the other."

"If the soul bone Dai Huabin sent is suitable for you, then I'll let you fuse with it, how about that?"

Huo Yuhao promised without hesitation that the White Tiger Duke's Mansion would definitely send over the soul bone once the assassination tonight was over.

Huo Yuhao will not absorb it anyway. He has very high requirements for soul bones, which must be at least 100,000 years old.

He wouldn't consider it unless it was a soul bone that could greatly enhance his combat power, like the Ice Blast Technique.

But just because he doesn't like her doesn't mean Xiao Xiao doesn't like her.

Let alone a thousand-year-old soul bone, even a hundred-year-old soul bone is priceless and unavailable. Most soul masters may never see what a soul bone looks like in their entire lives.

Even those artificially created secret soul bones are so rare that they can be sold instantly on the market.

"Forget it, forget it. I didn't put in much effort during the upgrade assessment. You should fuse the soul bone with Yuhao."

"I was just joking. I'm not like Wang Dong, who expects to reap without sowing!"

Xiao Xiao put her hands on her hips and said casually, but her slightly red earlobes betrayed her. The girl's emotions were not as calm as she appeared. The word "beloved" had a great impact on her.

"Hmph, getting something for nothing is my skill too. Can you get a soul bone worth nearly ten million gold soul coins without working for it?"

Unusually, Wang Dong didn't argue with Xiao Xiao; instead, he seemed a little proud.

Huo Yuhao looked intently at Xiao Xiao, or more precisely, at the light screen that suddenly appeared in front of her.

[Entry author: Xiao Xiao]

[The attribute holder has been upgraded from yellow to purple; the acquisition conditions remain unchanged.]

The entry hints always appeared in ways he never expected.

Huo Yuhao fell into deep thought. What had he done to Xiao Xiao? Nothing.

He only made a verbal promise; it's not a fact that has already happened, but merely a possibility for the future.

Therefore, the appearance of the entry prompt is unrelated to the promise.

The entry hint appeared after he made the promise, but it had nothing to do with the promise. There is only one answer: it is related to Xiao Xiao, or rather, it is related to the change that happened to Xiao Xiao at that moment.

It was because he made a promise that caused some unknown change in Xiao Xiao, which led to the appearance of the entry prompt.

"Feelings?"

"Feelings? What feelings? Yuhao, what are you talking about?"

Although Huo Yuhao's murmur was very soft, the three of them were very close, and since they were all Soul Masters, their senses were naturally more acute than those of ordinary people.

"It's nothing. I mean, Xiao Xiao and I have grown distant. She won't even accept my soul bone. In the end, it was all for naught."

Huo Yuhao smiled, and Xiao Xiao naturally didn't take it seriously, but she still puffed out her cheeks and put on an indifferent look.

"Even if you try to play the victim, I won't accept it. You didn't take the soul bones from the freshman assessment, so it's your turn this time."

"It seems Xiao Xiao wants to watch me forcibly absorb the incompatible soul bone, and eventually explode and die."

"I never expected Xiao Xiao to be so vicious. You're just like a female version of Dai Huabin."

Wang Dong also saw that Huo Yuhao didn't want Dai Huabin's soul bone at all, and immediately echoed him.

Xiao Xiao really couldn't hold back this time. She held back when Huo Yuhao said she would explode and die, and she also held back when Wang Dong said she was vicious.

But Xiao Xiao couldn't hold back any longer when she heard the phrase "female version of Dai Huabin." It was a curse that was even more vicious than half a level of innate soul power!

"Alright, alright, I give up. If none of you are suitable for that soul bone, then I'll have to fuse with it."

Xiao Xiao raised the white flag and admitted defeat. Huo Yuhao scratched her fair face with his finger and said, "Then I'm definitely not suitable."

"Okay, Xiao Xiao, help me buy that whale glue. We'll keep it as a token of our love."

"Yuhao, you!" This time it was Xiao Xiaohongwen's turn.

"I was talking about friendship. Xiao Xiao, your mentality is really unhealthy." Huo Yuhao smiled and turned around to go to the counter to purchase the Golden Radiance left arm bone.

There were no entry prompts this time?
