Douluo Continent: Starting with a Void Treasure Trove

Chapter 121 Familiar Osmanthus Cake

Bei Bei guided Huo Yuhao through the training route of the Xuan Tian Gong, as well as other Tang Sect secret techniques such as the Purple Demon Eye.

Tang Ya then chatted with Xu Yang and Gu Yuena.

"You just said you have a sect. Can you tell me which sect it is?"

"The sect that can cultivate two geniuses like you must be extraordinary, right? Also, what's the relationship between you two?"

Tang Ya asked several questions in one go.

Gu Yuena was a little uncomfortable with this interrogation, which felt like a census check, and took a small step back behind Xu Yang.

Xu Yang took the opportunity to shield Gu Yuena behind him, and then began to fabricate answers for Tang Ya, sentence by sentence.

"The sects we both come from are secluded and unknown to you."

Seeing that Xu Yang didn't want to answer, Tang Ya pressed on, "Tell me about it. There are many hidden sects on the Douluo Continent, and quite a few of them are mentioned in Shrek Academy. What if I've heard of them?"

Xu Yang adjusted his glasses and uttered two words.

"Destiny".

"The sect, or organization, that we both come from is called Destiny."

"This is our sister, she just takes her father's surname and her mother's surname."

Xu Yang shook Gu Yuena's hand.

"Fate?"

Tang Ya murmured the name, but she couldn't quite place it. She'd have to ask Bei Bei later.

Because of her special status, Beibei has access to many things she doesn't know.

"But—are you two really siblings?"

Tang Ya looked at Xu Yang and Gu Yuena, who were leaning against each other.

As someone who's been through it all, she always felt that the relationship between the two wasn't as simple as Xu Yang described.

"She's been cultivating and recovering from her injuries in the organization all these years, which is why she's a bit quiet, afraid of strangers, and closer to me. If it weren't for this opportunity to hunt for a spirit ring for her, we wouldn't be here."

"So that's how it is—"

Tang Ya didn't think much of it and accepted Xu Yang's explanation.

She didn't ask why there were no powerful figures following them; after all, she and Bei Bei had arrived in the same way. The presence of Xu Yang and his sister here seemed reasonable to her.

At that moment, the sun was rising in the east.

"Oh, the sun's up, so I'll have to talk to you guys from now on. I still need to cultivate."

Tang Ya sat cross-legged on the ground and began to activate her Purple Demon Eye.

A hint of purple appeared in Tang Ya's eyes, and at the same time, Xu Yang noticed that a special energy was being absorbed into Tang Ya's eyes.

This must be the purple energy needed for cultivating the Purple Demon Eye.

"What exactly is it? Can it be extracted to enhance mental cultivation? Or—what is the principle behind the so-called Purple Demon Eye's absorption of purple energy? Can we create a soul tool with similar effects?"

While Xu Yang was thinking this, Tang Ya finished her cultivation.

Tang Ya got up and walked towards the direction where Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao were. She was a little curious as to why Huo Yuhao had not finished cultivating the Xuan Tian Gong after nearly four hours since last night.

Moreover, she was a little hungry and needed Huo Yuhao's grilled fish to comfort her stomach.

"Beibei, what's wrong with Yuhao—"

Huo Yuhao was cultivating, and Tang Ya moved very gently, afraid of disturbing him.

"Yuhao's martial soul is the Spirit Eye, and he has a great talent for cultivating the Purple Demon Eye. He should be in a rather wonderful state now. With the blessing of the Mysterious Heaven Technique and the Purple Demon Eye, Yuhao's future cultivation will be smoother."

Xu Yang also walked over to Huo Yuhao's side and glanced at Huo Yuhao's condition.

"He's fine; he's just entered a shallow level of deep meditation, and judging from his condition, he should wake up soon."

As Xu Yang was speaking, Huo Yuhao also woke up.

At the same time, his stomach also gave a disapproving growl. This was understandable; Huo Yuhao, an eleventh-level Soul Master, hadn't eaten a single bite since encountering that wind baboon yesterday at noon.

The fusion of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and Electrolux placed a tremendous burden on Huo Yuhao's body, and he was able to hold on until now thanks to the newly cultivated soul power within his body.

To cover his embarrassment, Huo Yuhao quickly chuckled twice and offered, "I'll grill the fish; my grilled fish tastes pretty good."

As he spoke, he started to walk towards the river.

"Me too!"

Tang Ya followed along.

She wanted to grab two big ones so she could eat her fill later.

Xu Yang, Gu Yuena, and Bei Bei waited patiently on the side. Xu Yang took out the osmanthus cake that Zhang Lexuan had made earlier and put pieces into his mouth one by one.

She also extended an invitation to Beibei, "Want to try some? My cousin made it, and it tastes pretty good. It's been so long, and I haven't seen you eat anything."

After teaching Huo Yuhao all night, Bei Bei was also hungry. He reached out and picked up a piece of osmanthus cake, examined it carefully, and felt that the osmanthus flowers on it seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before.

Then I put it in my mouth and tasted it.

"How is it? Tastes good, right? —"

Xu Yang waited expectantly for Bei Bei to give him an answer.

As soon as Beibei took a bite, he felt that Xu Yang's osmanthus cake tasted familiar, but he just couldn't remember it. He felt like he had eaten it before.

Xu Yang was waiting for his evaluation.

Beibei nodded and said, "It tastes very good, and—it also has the effect of aiding cultivation. The osmanthus on this is quite special."

"They were all given to me by friends, and I don't know what's so special about them. My cousin likes to tinker with these kinds of things when she has nothing to do, and over time I've developed a habit of eating sweets."

"Your cousin's cooking skills are really good."

Beibei praised it.

"Of course, I knew you would like it."

While the two were talking, Huo Yuhao also came over carrying four bluefish, each weighing about three pounds.

Tang Ya ran over carrying a large bluefish that looked to weigh at least five pounds. Clearly, she had prepared it especially for herself.

Just as Huo Yuhao was about to start a fire, he saw Xu Yang take out something that looked like a barbecue grill.

Even Tang Ya asked curiously, "You carry something like this with you?"

Xu Yang said with a smile, "I have a bit of a sweet tooth sometimes, it's just that one little hobby, so I usually bring it with me. Anyway, it doesn't take up much space."

Xu Yang waved the silver-white storage soul tool in his hand.

This is a material given by Gu Yuena. Unlike the Starlight Sapphire, Xu Yang's storage soul tool has another feature besides its extremely large capacity—it can store living things.

Or rather, preservation.

There are still quite a few living soul beast materials inside.

Xu Yang took out a tendon that looked like that of an earth dragon soul beast, along with seasonings and a pot, and handed all the items to Huo Yuhao.
