“Ahem, Senior Sister Meng, you should first try to see if this thing is useful to you.” Huo Yuhao pretended not to hear and said with a light cough. Meng Hongchen no longer made things difficult for Huo Yuhao, but opened the stopper of the jade bottle in his hand. Suddenly, a strange fragrance emanated from the jade bottle. When she smelled this strange fragrance, Meng Hongchen's eyes lit up instantly, and a huge ice toad shadow appeared behind her. "What a strange poison, it can actually suppress the cold poison in my body!" Meng Hongchen said in surprise. Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Of course. The toxin of this Tianxiang Mandragora is the king of poisons. I think it should be helpful to your Red Eyed Ice Toad Martial Spirit." Meng Hongchen nodded, and without hesitation, he put the jade bottle to his mouth and drank all the nectar in it! Then, she sat cross-legged and began to meditate. What surprised Huo Yuhao was that the paleness on Meng Hongchen’s face caused by the cold poison gradually faded away after he drank the liquid in the jade bottle. At this moment, Meng Hongchen's face slowly turned from pale to rosy, but soon turned blue again, repeating over and over again in a continuous cycle. However, Huo Yuhao could feel that the aura in Meng Hongchen's body, which had been constantly declining, was slowly recovering.

At the same time, a strange fragrance emanated from her body. Seeing this, Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the situation, Meng Hongchen's physical condition should have stabilized. An hour later, after Huo Yuhao confirmed that Meng Hongchen was out of danger, he did not stay in the secret room any longer, but turned around and left. As soon as Huo Yuhao came out of the secret room, he was confronted by Jing Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen, grandfather and grandson, who both looked anxious. Huo Yuhao nodded to the two of them, and Jing Hongchen instantly turned into a stream of red light and entered the secret room. Just a moment later, Jing Hongchen appeared outside the secret room again. "Grandpa, what's going on? Is Meng getting better?" Xiao Hongchen asked impatiently. Jing Hongchen pondered and said, "The cold poison in Meng'er's body is indeed suppressed by another poison, but Meng'er's martial soul seems to be slowly merging with this poison. If Meng'er can completely absorb the power of the poison, from now on, not only can she completely get rid of the threat of the cold poison, but she may also get great benefits, and her martial soul may also evolve!" Xiao Hongchen couldn't help but be ecstatic: "Great, then Meng will no longer be threatened by the backlash of the cold poison from now on." Jing Hongchen nodded: "That's true, but looking at Meng'er's current condition, I'm afraid this fusion will take a long time. It may take a few days to know whether it is successful or not." Then Jing Hongchen turned to look at Huo Yuhao and said, "Yuhao, Meng'er was saved this time thanks to you. I really don't know what to say." Huo Yuhao shook his head and smiled, “Master, there is no need to say more. Senior Sister Meng has always been of great help to me. I should do this.” "Master, I just came back. I am a little tired after running around for days. If there is nothing else, I will go back and rest first." After Huo Yuhao finished speaking, he bowed towards Jing Hongchen with an expressionless face. Jing Hongchen nodded slightly and said, "Yuhao, you must have experienced a lot in the past two years. I originally wanted to ask you a lot of things, but looking at this situation, let's wait a week and talk slowly." Huo Yuhao nodded and said yes to Jing Hongchen, then turned around and left. Huo Yuhao walked straight ahead and just as he left the gate of Mingde Hall, he heard a hurried call from behind him. "Yuhao, Yuhao, wait for me!" Huo Yuhao knew it was Xiao Hongchen without turning around. He stopped where he was, turned around and looked at Xiao Hongchen expressionlessly.

"Senior Xiao, what's wrong? Are you still angry and want to catch up with me and beat me up?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Hongchen stood there awkwardly, and the hand that he had raised to pat Huo Yuhao on the shoulder just now stayed in mid-air awkwardly. He smiled awkwardly, "You can't hold a grudge like that, can you? I was just too concerned and confused. The dream turned out like that, and you disappeared for two years without saying a word. Isn't it normal for me to have some resentment towards you?" Huo Yuhao ignored him and remained silent. Xiao Hongchen sighed, his mouth curled up into a bitter smile: "Okay, okay, I was wrong just now, Brother Huo, please be magnanimous and forgive me." Huo Yuhao sneered: "It's very simple. Just give me one or two billion gold soul coins and I'll let you off the hook for hitting me with metal just now." Xiao Hongchen bared his teeth and said, "One billion or eight billion gold soul coins? You think I'm a minter of gold soul coins? Even if all the liquid funds of the entire Sun Moon Empire were added together, I don't know if there are that many." Huo Yuhao spread his hands and said, “That’s all I can do. I brought you some goodies that might help your spirit, but since you can’t even bear to spend this little money, forget it.” Huo Yuhao turned around and left, without even the slightest intention of saying a word to Xiao Hongchen. "A good thing that can help my martial soul?" Xiao Hongchen was surprised. He quickly clung to Huo Yuhao like a dog-skin plaster, smiling flatteringly, “Brother Huo, Brother Huo, I was wrong, I was really wrong. I only have tens of millions of gold soul coins in my personal vault, not 100 million or 800 million. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time.” Huo Yuhao glanced at him and said, "Do you think I really want your gold soul coins? I have created an organization myself and it is just starting out. I am short of funds. If not for this, I would not even consider your 10 billion or 800 million gold soul coins." "Organization?" Xiao Hongchen was a little surprised. "What organization?" Huo Yuhao said calmly: "Does it have anything to do with you? You just looked at me like an enemy." Xiao Hongchen gritted his teeth inwardly, thinking that Huo Yuhao was too vindictive. But now Xiao Hongchen was like a snake being pinched by someone, and he was anxious to know what the thing that Huo Yuhao was talking about that would help his martial soul was, so he had to follow Huo Yuhao. Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, in the laboratory. Xiao Hongchen opened his mouth wide and looked at the purple soul ring floating in front of him, his whole face full of disbelief. "Is this a soul ring?" Xiao Hongchen asked uncertainly to Huo Yuhao beside him. Huo Yuhao looked at Xiao Hongchen as if he were an idiot: "Of course it's a spirit ring, otherwise what do you think it is?" “But, but, this soul ring can be preserved for a long time and it is ownerless. Anyone can absorb it. Doesn’t that mean that this soul ring can be used for trading?” Xiao Hongchen said in shock. When he saw this tradable spirit ring, he immediately sensed the huge business opportunities and value hidden in it. What does it mean that the spirit ring can be traded? This means that the world of soul masters is about to change completely! Think about it, how many soul masters with weaker cultivation bases have died on the way to hunt for soul rings in the past, and how many soul masters, because of their low cultivation bases, can only add soul rings that are not compatible with their own martial souls, thus restricting their own cultivation. And now, if spirit rings can be traded, doesn’t it mean that spirit masters don’t have to take huge risks to hunt for spirit rings themselves, and can freely choose the spirit rings that suit them? The soul ring trading can even create a new industry. This is sheer profiteering! Xiao Hongchen felt a little dizzy. He looked at Huo Yuhao in shock and asked, "How did you do that?" The corners of Huo Yuhao's mouth curled up slightly. Xiao Hongchen's reaction was exactly what he expected. Anyone would probably be surprised beyond words when seeing a spirit ring that could be traded.

The purpose of shocking Xiao Hongchen was not for anything else but to pull him to the Spirit Transmission Tower. After all, in terms of financial resources, the only family in Mingdu besides the royal family is the Hongchen family. And if Xuan Ziwen and the others want to study artificial soul rings and artificial souls, they will have to invest gold soul coins. It is necessary to bring Xiao Hongchen to the Soul Transmission Tower. "It's nothing, we just developed a new type of soul guide." A disc-shaped soul guide appeared in Huo Yuhao's hand. After Huo Yuhao carefully introduced the functions of the soul ring collector to Xiao Hongchen, Xiao Hongchen was so shocked that his eyes widened and he was speechless for a while. “How about joining our Spirit Transferring Tower? Let me tell you, what we are going to study next is not only the spirit ring collector, but also artificial spirit rings. One day, I will allow spirit masters to continue their cultivation without spirit beasts.” Huo Yuhao said with a burning gaze. Upon hearing this, Xiao Hongchen was completely shocked by Huo Yuhao's extremely crazy declaration and stood there in a daze. "Artificial soul ring, soul tower." Xiao Hongchen kept muttering on the spot. Finally, three minutes later, Xiao Hongchen said firmly: "I want to join." Xiao Hongchen is not a fool. He knows that if a soul guide device like the soul ring collector were exposed on the Douluo Continent now, it would probably be snatched up by the entire continent. Not to mention Huo Yuhao’s idea of ​​artificial spirit rings. It may sound crazy at first, but who knows if it will succeed one day? "But Yuhao, if this soul ring collector is exposed to the public, it will probably be immediately fought over by all the forces on the continent. In addition to the three major empires of Douluo Continent, even the royal family of our Sun Moon Empire will probably do whatever it takes to get the secret of this new soul guide." "The interests involved in this thing are too great. If there is no super strong person in charge, I am afraid we can't defend it!" Xiao Hongchen said very seriously. “Yes.” Huo Yuhao also nodded: “That’s right, so our Spirit Transferring Tower should not be unveiled, but once unveiled, the entire continent will know about us and let everyone see our strength.” "Let the whole continent know about us? You mean, the continent-wide Youth Soul Master Fighting Competition in half a year?" Xiao Hongchen asked. Huo Yuhao held the teacup in one hand and said, "This is one way, but it will take another half a year. It's too slow. We can't wait." "Then what are you going to do?" Xiao Hongchen said in a deep voice. "Do you know why I have been missing for two years?" Huo Yuhao did not answer Xiao Hongchen, but asked him a question instead. Xiao Hongchen frowned: "As far as I know, it was Shrek who said that you killed the emperor beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, which caused the fierce beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest to be enraged and triggered the beast tide." "That's what Shrek Academy has always advertised. We once thought you had died in the Star Dou Great Forest." “Haha, you really are good at confusing right and wrong!” Huo Yuhao sneered. "The truth is completely contrary to what Shrek said. I disappeared for two years entirely because of Shrek Academy." Huo Yuhao immediately told Xiao Hongchen the reasons and consequences of his wandering in the small world, and how he narrowly escaped from that small world filled with chaotic energy. Of course, some key things are also hidden in the middle. “I see, so that’s how it is. Shrek Academy is really shameless. It’s obviously them who caused the destruction of all the creatures in the Star Dou Great Forest, yet they still confuse right and wrong. They are simply a bunch of bastards!” Xiao Hongchen slammed his palm on the experimental table next to him with a bang. “Haha, it’s all thanks to Shrek in the past two years, otherwise I wouldn’t be so notorious on the mainland.” Huo Yuhao smiled sarcasticly. "However, thanks to them, I have thought of a way to make our Spirit Pagoda famous throughout the continent." Xiao Hongchen couldn't help but be stunned: "What are you going to do?"

Huo Yuhao said softly: “Since we have completely made enemies with Shrek Academy and they are determined to kill me, I have no choice but to do it once and for all and make them disappear from Douluo Continent completely!” Xiao Hongchen's face changed. "You are not going to go to war with Shrek Academy, are you? Yuhao, calm down first. When I was an exchange student at Shrek Academy for a few years, I found that Shrek is still very strong. They have more than 20 Titled Douluo. With our current strength, we can't even shake them, let alone go to war, unless we borrow the power of the Sun and Moon Royal Family." Huo Yuhao snorted coldly: "I didn't intend to completely eliminate Shrek right now, but they slandered me so much, I have to reciprocate, and I have to collect a little interest." "Laugh, listen to me." Huo Yuhao said something in Xiao Hongchen's ear. After listening, Xiao Hongchen instantly fell into deep thought. Two days later, Shrek City. At the gate of Shrek City, there was still a bustling scene with a surge of people. Two young men of ordinary appearance were walking on the streets of Shrek City. "Yuhao, isn't this too risky? This is Shrek City after all. If we sneak in quietly like this, will it be possible?" One of the white-haired young men said to another tall black-haired young man. The black-haired young man's eyes flashed: "Don't worry, with my spiritual power to cover the two of us, no one will discover our identities. Besides, we still have the thing you brought out from Mingde Hall. Even if they are discovered, they dare not do anything to us." The young man in white was relieved after hearing this. The two walked towards the gate of Shrek Academy. Along the way, the other Shrek Academy students seemed not to notice them. (End of this chapter)
