Douluo Continent: Son of the God King, Chaotic Time and Space

After absorbing the Ice Silkworm's soul ring, Huo Yutong tried out her soul skills.

"Psychological interference?"

It consumes little energy, but its effects are not particularly strong.

"It feels quite different from Ji Siyuan's Blazing Lotus." She unconsciously compared her new soul skill with Ji Siyuan's.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm: "You're comparing the destructive power of a control-type soul skill with that of an attack? What were you thinking? You should look at the range it can be used on and what kind of effect it can cause. This mental interference can affect enemies within a radius of tens of meters, and the energy consumption is so small. It's a very powerful soul skill, okay?"

After hearing Tianmeng Bingcan's explanation, she was still somewhat disappointed.

Hyotei: "If we're talking about destructive power, you should use your second spirit, not your first."

The now-sharp Ice Emperor explained the abilities she had provided, then warned Huo Yutong: "Don't use them carelessly. A 100,000-year-old soul skill consumes a lot of energy, and we can't withstand that kind of consumption right now."

Huo Yutong sorted out her gains from her trip to the far north and found that her soul power had reached the peak of level 25, and she could break through to level 26 at any time.

Huo Yutong, overjoyed, prepared to return to Shrek Academy: "Let's go!"

……

After a brief tug-of-war with Mu En, Ji Siyuan left and returned to his dormitory.

"Why are you back so late?" Wang Dong'er asked, standing at the entrance of their dormitory.

Ji Siyuan now felt that Shrek Academy's dormitory building was outrageously designed. How could they allow men and women to live together? And even if they did, why were the girls allowed to stay on the boys' floor? It was a privilege of living on higher floors.

"Open the door! Do you know how many people are watching me from outside?"

"Couldn't you have gone back to your dorm and wait there?" Ji Siyuan was both amused and exasperated. What kind of nonsense was this?

Wang Dong'er approached as the dormitory door opened.

"You don't want to learn Tang Clan's secret techniques in your dorm room, do you?"

Wang Dong'er replied matter-of-factly, "Of course, even if I can't learn Ghost Shadow Tracking and Crane Control Dragon Capture, there's still the Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons, right? You should teach me that too."

"I'm not very good at this, you'll have to ask Beibei or Tang Ya to teach you," Ji Siyuan refused repeatedly.

"Then teach me the basics first." Wang Dong'er leaned closer on her own initiative.

"Wait, be careful, hidden weapons are dangerous." Ji Siyuan only had the Dragon Beard Needle as a hidden weapon, which was not suitable for demonstration.

The two huddled together, fiddling with the tiny dragon whisker needle. Before they could even demonstrate it, they heard the dormitory door open.

Click, followed by the sound of a door being pushed open.

"Siyuan, I'm back." Huo Yutong transformed back into Huo Yuhao and excitedly called out to Ji Siyuan.

Then you see Wang Dong'er leaning against Ji Siyuan, with Ji Siyuan pressing down on Wang Dong'er's hand with one of his hands.

For a moment, Huo Yuhao even forgot the apology he had prepared: "I'm sorry, I'll go out first."

"No, no, come quickly and pull her away." Ji Siyuan was also anxious; this was just in time.

Tang San nodded repeatedly: "This is the test."

Ji Siyuan didn't have time to deal with Tang San. He got up, put away the Dragon Beard Needle, and grabbed Huo Yuhao in a few quick steps: "Perfect timing! Quickly tell Wang Dong'er how dangerous the Dragon Beard Needle is. She doesn't believe me."

In this situation, no one should be allowed to leave first; everyone must finish speaking first.

Otherwise, the misunderstanding could truly remain a misunderstanding, and that wouldn't be right.

"Dragon whisker needle?" Huo Yuhao looked at Ji Siyuan in confusion, then thought of Dai Huabin's miserable state on the first day.

Unable to bear seeing Wang Dong'er become like that, he began to explain to her.

Ji Siyuan was finally able to extricate himself.

"That's great. Letting the two of them interact changes the person they're questioning, and the Lady of Destiny will know what just happened. It also lets them get used to it in advance." Tang San thought for a moment and began to praise Ji Siyuan's actions.

"Uncle, what's all this about? I need to go and calm things down."

Even if there's no problem, he still has to keep an eye on things.

Of the three of them, only he knew how to use the dragon whisker needle.

"Can you demonstrate?" Wang Dong'er looked at Ji Siyuan, her eyes full of longing.

"Is this not being explained clearly?"

"Well, Siyuan, I actually want to see it too," Huo Yuhao replied to Ji Siyuan sheepishly. Tang Ya was the one who first dealt with Dai Huabin, and the Dragon Beard Needle also belonged to Tang Ya; Ji Siyuan had taken it out and hadn't returned it.

Helpless, Ji Siyuan had no choice but to demonstrate it to the two of them.

He casually took out some meat from his spatial soul tool to show them, then cut it open to let them see how the dragon whisker needles would pierce into the meat.

Fortunately, they were only curious about the dragon whisker needle and nothing more.

And so, the event passed quietly.

Before long, Wang Dong'er left. Unable to learn the secrets of hidden weapons, she lost interest.

Ji Siyuan happily saw Wang Dong'er off.

Back in the dormitory, he saw Huo Yuhao waiting for him with a nervous expression.

Huo Yuhao bit his lip, his voice low and deep: "Siyuan, I'm sorry. I ate the lotus seeds."

Ji Siyuan sighed; he sensed the lotus seeds disappearing.

Huo Yuhao looked at Ji Siyuan with unwavering determination, his eyes brimming with tears, but he didn't let them fall: "I know the lotus seeds are very, very precious, and I will definitely make it up to you."

Both Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor are said to be god-level, so naturally they are not something he can afford to compensate for.

"Siyuan, that lotus seed saved my life. After I've taken my revenge, I can give you my life."

Ji Siyuan, who was pondering how to persuade him, was suddenly enraged by this nonsensical remark: "Oh, now you're thinking of giving me your life? What were you thinking when we were on the adventure? Besides, what would I do with your life?"

Ji Siyuan paused for a moment: "What exactly happened? You ate lotus seeds? If it's your secret, then I won't ask. Tell me when there's a chance in the future."

Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat: "It's a secret, but I can tell you. I've awakened my second martial soul."

Ji Siyuan showed no reaction, watching him with great interest. He wasn't shocked by the fact that he had awakened twin martial souls later in life.

Huo Yuhao didn't care about Ji Siyuan's reaction, because he planned to tell part of the truth: "I didn't awaken my martial soul; I created it. My second martial soul is the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, the second of the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North. My martial soul is also ultimate ice!"

This statement surprised Ji Siyuan; he truly hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to say it. Huo Yuhao's trust in him was incredibly high.

"Aren't you surprised? You might even suspect I'm lying to you." This sounds very unrealistic.

"I believe you," Ji Siyuan said casually, giving Huo Yuhao an answer he hadn't expected.

"A soul beast with 400,000 souls, its power is immense. It must have been very painful to absorb it, right? Was its body frozen and it had no choice but to eat it? My lotus seeds must have played a big role." His smile and his words were deeply engraved in Huo Yutong's heart.

That pain finally found an outlet.

She threw herself into Ji Siyuan's arms and cried, "It hurts, it really hurts. I almost fainted in the far north."

"You're back. I'm here."
