Douluo Continent: The Spirit-Eyed Detective Huo Yuhao

"Qiu'er, save one for us! Lulu and I haven't had a chance to show off yet," said Cui Yajie, who had revealed her Nine-Tailed Fox Martial Soul but hadn't even had a chance to unleash a single skill.

Zhu Lu on the other side also nodded. After three months, with the compensation from the college and the companionship of her friends, she had emerged from the shadow of witnessing Dai Huabin being burned to ashes.

"Oh, then you can have this last one." The blonde girl withdrew her hand and stepped back.

"Ah, this..."

Looking at the support-type Soul Master trembling on the other side, the cat and the fox felt really bad.

.........

"Yuhao! That girl's face!" Wang Dong exclaimed.

"Really, boss, she looks just like you, except her hair color is different; hers is blonde." Xiao Xiao was also very surprised.

Huo Yuhao's expression was quite amused, with a smile on his lips and his bright eyes filled with the meaning of "super interesting".

Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao stopped talking; it was the first time they had ever seen Huo Yuhao show such a clear change in emotion towards someone.

"A fake!"

Huo Yuhao stared at the blonde girl on the stage, whose face resembled his own nine-tenths, but was more feminine.

They seem even cuter and prettier.

Regardless, alarm bells were ringing in his mind; the aura emanating from that blonde girl made him extremely uncomfortable.

"Huo Qiu'er..."

He silently recited the name he had just heard from the referee.

Even their surnames are the same, and the given name is so simple it looks like it was made up on the spot, it's even more suspicious...

"Haha, should we find a chance to knock her out?" Huo Yuhao began to plan how to successfully tie her up.

It can be buried in a demiplane, and no one will find it.

Within the sea of ​​spirit,

"Isn't this going too far, Yuhao? Maybe it's just that they look alike?" Tianmeng Bingcan said.

Speaking of which, his human form does resemble Huo Yuhao by a third, since his face was modeled after Huo Yuhao's.

"Excessive? I'm not excessive at all. Who knows what kind of dangerous person that can imitate someone else's face without permission? Do you know that's violating portrait rights? If I don't make the first move, she might kill me first and then dye that thing blue to replace my identity..." Huo Yuhao's spiritual body talked on and on.

"Brother Tianmeng, didn't you feel that annoying aura about her? Not just the aura, but also that face that I didn't quite capture properly, failing to highlight my handsomeness? And that blond hair, it's actually wearing blond hair on my face! I hate blond hair the most, just like those white tigers!"

"Yuhao, calm down, don't let your feelings of disgust affect your thinking!" Electrolux finally spoke, helping Huo Yuhao stabilize his mental state.

This sentence woke Huo Yuhao up. He couldn't stop thinking about it once he started, and he had just been affected by his almost instinctive reaction of disgust.

"Thanks, Elder Yi, I'm alright now." Huo Yuhao's eyes regained their clarity. "What exactly was that aura? I only glanced at it, yet it caused such a reaction?"

“I don’t know either. I only sensed that it was related to ‘fate.’ In my opinion, you yourself have a destiny of ‘defying fate.’ These two energies are completely in conflict, and your transformed spiritual eyes were able to observe them, which caused your emotional fluctuations,” Electrox analyzed with his own insights.

“Fate…?” Huo Yuhao looked at Huo Qiu’er as she walked off the stage.

"Yuhao, what are you doing?" Wang Dong asked as Huo Yuhao suddenly walked towards Huo Qiu'er.

"Haha, your face is very pretty, just like mine." Huo Yuhao greeted Huo Qiu'er as he approached her seat.

He really wanted to see what fate was.

Chapter 50 Curiosity, Lack of Common Sense, and Reunion

A month ago,

The core area of ​​Star Dou Forest

"what is that?"

A spirit beast stared blankly in the northwest direction, where Shrek City was located, in human territory.

But it didn't know too much about these things; it just stared blankly at the distant sky, curiosity flashing in its three eyes.

What a sky it was! Brilliant flames bloomed in the air, their dazzling light containing immense spiritual energy fluctuations. Each explosion stirred its heart, and the final holy light that filled an entire city made its heart surge with excitement.

As an auspicious beast, it possesses near-perfect fire and light attributes, and its mental power attribute is also top-tier.

That is why it is even more able to appreciate the beauty of that spectacular sight.

The auspicious beast ran towards the edge of the forest, wanting to get a closer look at the scenery, running even faster than when it was hunting.

It is the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, an auspicious beast of emperors.

The auspicious beast is covered in golden fur that looks like translucent crystal, with a strange texture. It resembles a lion in shape, has four claws like a dragon, walks on fire, has golden scales on its skin, and has three eyes on its face.

Between its golden eyes is an eerie red vertical pupil, which represents the power of destiny and allows it to see things that are extremely far away.

The mythical beast's three eyes gazed towards Shrek City; the human world was utterly mysterious to it.

"What exactly are those fireworks? Why do they only bloom for a fleeting moment? Did humans make them? What is the human world like?"

With questions in mind, Jin Ni's eyes, piercing through the vast distance, saw the group of humans reveling, and even more so, saw Mr. Huo, the version of Huo Yuhao, standing on the high platform at the center of everyone's attention.

"Did he do all of those?"

There are still many things that Jin Ni doesn't understand.

"After all, I'm still young, only a little over ten thousand years old. I should ask Di Tian instead."

"Emperor Tian is 800,000 years old, he must know a lot," Jin Ni thought to himself as he ran back to the core area.

"Little guy, you want to know what the humans just released? Hehehe... uh..."

The enormous golden-eyed black dragon king couldn't speak, nor did it know; how could it possibly know about human matters?

"But I want to know..." The mythical beast's curiosity remained undiminished, its tone almost like a coquettish plea.

King of Ten Thousand Demons: "It should be a cannon."

Murasaki: "I also think it's a cannon."

Xiong Jun: "It's a cannon."

Red King: "Hmm, cannons."

"How perfunctory of you all are!" Jin Ni exclaimed.

“Auspicious beast, if you really want to know, I will go and see for you, and then I will tell you when I come back.” The jade swan, with its emerald green body, transformed into human form. She was a stunningly beautiful woman with long green hair and a gentle, compassionate expression in her eyes.

"Beauty is the best!" the auspicious beast exclaimed joyfully.

"Biji, be careful." Di Tian's tone was not very approving.

"Don't worry, I'm just looking and won't be discovered. And even if I am, it doesn't matter. I'm different from you. The people of Shrek have no hostility towards me. Besides, how could I ignore the little auspicious beast's request?" Brigitte smiled gently and flew towards Shrek City.

Brigitte brought back many things from her journey, as she was quite surprised by the changes in the human world. She couldn't remember when she last saw the human world, but it was certainly very different from now.

Fireworks, newspapers, food, cars that move automatically without needing to be pushed or pulled...

She bought back all the auspicious beasts that she thought were interesting.

As for money, contrary to stereotypes, the soul beasts of Star Dou Forest are actually not short of money.

Because there are a great many soul coins left behind by humans who died in the forest over the years.

If someone dared to venture deep into the heart of the forest, they could probably become a millionaire just by scavenging, but the powerful individuals who could venture deep already had plenty of soul coins.

"Auspicious Beast, take these." Bi Ji placed a large pile of things that she had gathered with her soul power in front of the Golden Lion.

"Thank you, Brigitte."

The auspicious beast excitedly grabbed the items, and the first thing it took out was the fireworks.

"This is called a firework. You need to light it here with fire," Brigitte instructed.

Ignite a fire? It's good at that; its claws are naturally capable of producing fire.

Once lit, it bursts into a dazzling display of sparks.

"This is it! This is exactly what I wanted to see! So it's called fireworks!" The mythical beast excitedly waved its paws. "But something seems to be missing; the previous fluctuation of spiritual energy is gone."

"Ah, this is delicious, and this is also delicious. Huh? There's actually spiritual energy in this food? Spiritual energy, delicious."

The golden lion swallowed the human food that Bi Ji had brought in one gulp, and its three eyes showed joy. It used to love absorbing the brain marrow of soul beasts, but it didn't expect that human food would taste even better than brain marrow.

"The human world is so interesting, I want to go and see it too." The golden lion carefully turned over the newspaper on the ground with the tip of its paw. It understood human language, as did the ferocious beasts in the core area, and it was required to learn it as well.

"We need to transform first, but what kind of form should we take?"

The golden lion remembered the people in the center of the fireworks it had seen, and their appearance left a deep impression on it.

"Huh? He's on this paper too!"

It saw the photo in the newspaper, and wasn't that the person in it?

"Is this what powerful humans are like? Let's do it like that. Oh, and names too."

The auspicious beast rolled on the ground, deep in thought.

"This person is called Mr. Huo, and my name is Huo... Huo..."

Its gaze then fell on the bottom of the photo, where it read, "This photo was provided by reporter 'Dong Er' (pseudonym)."

"Let's put it together. This one is called Dong Er, and I'll call myself Qiu'er, Huo Qiu'er."

Soul beasts don't think too much; it's better to keep things simple and straightforward.

………………

Let's go back to the present.

Huo Qiu'er looked up when she heard Huo Yuhao's greeting.

Before she could speak, two little girls stood in front of her.

"Coming up to chat right away, and saying 'just like me,' isn't that a bit too frivolous?" Nine-tailed fox Cui Yajie's tone was unfriendly, thinking that Huo Yuhao had come to cause trouble.

Zhu Lu didn't say anything, but she stepped forward anyway.

Huo Qiu'er was a temporary transfer student to their class. Since Dai Huabin was no longer there, Huo Qiu'er filled his vacancy and became their teammate.

After spending half a month together, they discovered that although Huo Qiu'er was incredibly powerful, she had a major flaw: a severe lack of common sense.

This is not an exaggeration.
