Chapter 533 Protecting Weaknesses

"Call me 'Uncle' and I'll help you take it apart."

Ah! I really gave him too much face.

"Did I teach you to become a ninth-level soul master just so you can bargain with me now?!"

"Call me 'Uncle.'" The other party remained unmoved.

Oh my god! Did he dare to talk to the Silver Dragon King like this before? !

"..." Mu Xing squeezed the scales between his fingers tightly, "What's the point of bullying a kid like me?!"

"Don't waste your energy. Just tell me."

"...Uncle, come back early." Mu Xing has always adhered to the principle of never taking action if the problem can be solved with a few words.

The functionality of Di Tian is too comprehensive, and it’s just a title, so there’s no need to take it too seriously.

"He'll be dead when he comes back." After cutting off the communication, Mu Xing calmly stated a fact that was about to happen to the Golden Dragon King and Alex who had heard the whole process.

In fact, it was not the case. He still cared a lot. What went wrong? Mu Xing decided to reflect on himself three times a day from now on: Am I too polite? Am I giving him face? Should I take action?

"Don't cripple him, he's very useful in all aspects, but don't beat him for your own good either." The Golden Dragon King stopped yelling and instead gave a rare serious suggestion, which roughly meant "this was the cub that the Dragon God favored the most back then, he can be used as a donkey."

"Is this right?" Alex began to doubt the ghost again.

"It's just a minor fight among the young dragons." The Golden Dragon King seemed much calmer.

“Oh! That’s very tough…” It was hard for Alex to imagine that Di Tian could actually turn his promise of “Don’t worry” into “Just wait for death”. Could it be that this black dragon had a masochistic tendency?

That's really bad, his traitor is the kind of ruthless dragon who would pretend to play SM but actually beat the opponent to death!

"Is he testing my bottom line?" Mu Xing felt his fist harden.

"I don't think so." Electrolux denied this. "I told him during a casual chat one time, 'I feel like I will never fall in love again in my life.' Then I asked him what he would never fall in love again in his life, and he said it was your bottom line."

"You even believe the lies told by men. You'll definitely be cheated by women twice more in your life." Mu Xing sneered. Look, there's an honest ghost here. Come and bully him!

The Golden Dragon King laughed and rolled down from the pile of gold coins.

"Just ask him whether he moved or not?" Alex was offended.

“……”That’s indeed not the case. Although Mu Xing is not a dragon without bottom line, his bottom line is not too high either.

"We are about to set off. Would you like to come with us, sir?" Orange and her army were ready to go, but she keenly noticed that Muxing's expression was a little strange.

As Xu Tianran's most trusted subordinate, Juzi had already mastered the skill of observing people's words and expressions. When she was with that man, she was always walking on thin ice, fearing that the slightest mistake would bring about her death. Xu Tianran appeared gentle and elegant, but in fact he was hypocritical and cruel. She still remembered that there was a minister who was as kind to Xu Tianran as she was, but because he acted a little casually in front of him, he died tragically at home not long after, and it was Juzi herself who executed the execution order.

Because of this, she always maintained a proper level of respect in front of Xu Tianran, hiding her true thoughts. But when facing Mu Xing, she didn't have to be so nervous, because the other party didn't care about her attitude, and she only needed to communicate normally. It might be wiser to be honest with him.

Although she still couldn't figure out Mu Xing's true intentions, but... Orange clenched the conquest card in her hand. Since the other party gave her the opportunity and power for revenge, she would do her best to please her.

Mu Xing nodded subconsciously. Just because she didn't want to do it herself didn't mean she didn't want to watch the egg-breaking process with her own eyes.

But why hasn't Xiao Huo come yet? Your biological father is almost castrated by your senior sister, why don't you bring your mother to come and see it yourself?

After all, when Huo Yuhao left the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, he swore that he would let Huo Yun'er's spirit in heaven take good care of him. So after he became Rong Nianbing's chosen god, at his request and with the tacit consent of the gods, Rong Nianbing projected Huo Yun'er's soul to his side.

Of course, Huo Yun'er could only watch and could do nothing, and no one could see her except Huo Yuhao.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao and Fu Rui were still strolling in the military camp of Yuming City. Huo Yun'er had never stepped out of the territory of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion in her life. Although Huo Yuhao hated Dai Hao, he still wanted to fulfill his mother's small wish and let her take a good look at the place where the man she admired the most had fought.

Through Huo Yuhao's spiritual detection sharing, Huo Yun'er almost greedily watched every corner where Dai Hao had lived. From the training ground to the soldiers' barracks, she didn't want to miss anything.

The barracks were spacious, each room could accommodate 30 soldiers, but the furnishings were extremely simple. The so-called beds were just the simplest wooden beds with straw mats on top, a thin mattress on top, and an ordinary quilt. This was all the bedding for each soldier.

The canteen area of ​​the military camp was also simple, and the soldiers had their meals in the open air. The logistics soldiers delivered the prepared meals to each brigade, and each brigade had a fixed dining area.

Compared to when Huo Yuhao was a child, the food conditions here were actually quite good. The giant iron pot was boiling with hot broth, and some vegetables and freshly baked steamed buns were placed next to it. But looking at all this at the moment, Huo Yuhao felt that the lower-class soldiers of the Xingluo Empire were pitiful. These cannon fodders who were about to go to the battlefield were treated just like this.

Huo Yuhao glanced at his mother and saw tears of heartache in Huo Yun'er's eyes and her lips trembling slightly. Huo Yuhao was very familiar with this expression of hers. She must be worried about Dai Hao's days of struggling in such a difficult environment. In his mother's eyes, those wooden beds and open-air canteens were probably proof of Dai Hao's "hard work and endurance". He knew his mother too well. Even now, she would still worry about every hardship that man went through.

Please, mom, Dai Hao is a marshal! Huo Yun'er probably couldn't imagine that Dai Hao's so-called "hardships in the military" were completely different from those of ordinary soldiers. That man followed his father to the battlefield at the age of thirteen. As a descendant of a general, he enjoyed special treatment even on the front line. He lived in the general's tent, ate special meals, and was always served by his personal soldiers.

I don't know where I heard this, but feeling sorry for a man will bring bad luck to you for the rest of your life! Huo Yuhao was about to say something, but he hesitated. He felt that although this sentence did not apply to all women, it was absolutely applicable to his mother. Forget it. Although his mother was sometimes a killjoy, he was not a killjoy kid, so he said nothing.

"I'm hungry." Fu Rui stretched out her hand to Huo Yuhao as a matter of course. In recent years, her meal times have gradually become more similar to those of humans.

Huo Yuhao casually took out a golden and crispy roasted herring and stuffed it into her mouth, then he started to eat it himself. The fish skin was shiny with an alluring oiliness, and as the heat rose, a rich aroma continued to overflow from the fish belly. The fish skin was roasted to a crispy aroma without being burnt at all. Under the crispy skin was the snow-white and tender fish meat, every fiber of which was soaked with the secret sauce, so tender and juicy that the cat was amazed.

Huo Yuhao has loved cooking since he was a child, and he has an innate talent in this area. Some people cook for their entire lives, but the food they cook is always mediocre; while some people are born to be chefs, and Huo Yuhao obviously belongs to the latter, otherwise he would not have been nearly entangled by Orange, a fan of cooking.

In order to feed Fu Rui at any time, he specially made a portable storage soul guide with the function of keeping fresh and warm, which came in handy at this moment. Occasionally, he could also pretend to be a food-type soul master and conjure up grilled fish of various flavors.

"Who is it?!" a sharp shout came from not far away.

She was a female general wearing plate armor, with outstanding appearance. She had blonde hair, bright eyes, tall and well-proportioned figure, and the close-fitting plate armor perfectly outlined her slender figure. Her skin was a healthy wheat color, and the white cape behind her fluttered in the wind, highlighting her identity as the battalion commander.

In the military, battalion commanders are already mid-level officers. If they can be promoted to division commanders, they will be truly senior generals. However, for many junior officers, the position of battalion commander is a difficult chasm to cross, and many captains have never been able to make the next step in their entire lives.

Huo Yuhao and Fu Rui looked at each other. Logically, the simulated soul skill should not be ineffective, and this military camp did not have soul guides to defend against spiritual detection like the Sun Moon Empire. The problem was obviously with the grilled fish. It was the aroma of the grilled fish that exposed their whereabouts.

Since he had been exposed, Huo Yuhao simply canceled the simulated soul skill.

The battalion leader's eyes shone, and her sight swept over Huo Yuhao and Fu Rui's clothes and the grilled fish in their hands, and she was immediately furious. Her face suddenly changed, and when she was about to explode, she suddenly realized that these two people were actually soul masters, and they could hide their bodies perfectly. If it weren't for the aroma of the grilled fish, she would not have noticed their presence at all.

Could they be spies sent by the enemy country? In any case, these two people must be subdued first! What's more hateful is that they dared to eat grilled fish leisurely in the military camp, which is simply a naked provocation to the Xingluo military!

"You must be spies sent by the Sun-Moon Empire! Surrender now!" the battalion leader shouted, and a dazzling light suddenly burst out from her body. A dazzling crown appeared between her brows, and four soul rings, two yellow and two purple, bloomed instantly under her feet.

Huo Yuhao was stunned upon seeing this. He was quite familiar with this martial soul - the Star Crown Martial Soul, the unique inherited martial soul of the royal family of the Star Luo Empire, which could only be awakened by direct bloodlines. The heroic battalion commander in front of him was actually a member of the royal family?

Is this Xu Jiawei's sister or daughter?

Huo Yuhao’s knowledge of the Xingluo royal family was limited to the siblings Xu Jiawei and Xu Jiujiu, whom he had met in the previous Soul Master Competition, and perhaps... He vaguely remembered Dai Luoli mentioning the name "Xu Yun". Anyway, she was a princess like Xu Jiujiu, so it could be her, right?

While Huo Yuhao was thinking, Xu Yun had already made her move. She pointed with her right hand, and the second soul ring suddenly shone. The star crown on her head floated up, and countless bright starlight shot towards the two of them like raindrops.

"Second soul skill - shining starlight!"

However, the next moment, Xu Yun showed an expression of disbelief. The starlight that was supposed to lock onto the target actually passed by the two of them, completely losing its accuracy.

Huo Yuhao was somewhat surprised. Xu Yun was actually taking the long-range attack route, which was completely different from Xu Jiujiu's control system. Although his talent was slightly inferior to Xu Jiujiu, if he cultivated to a higher level, it was still unknown who would be stronger.

Seeing that her second soul skill was ineffective, Xu Yun changed her move without hesitation. She pointed her right hand to the sky, and a dazzling star cluster with a diameter of more than two feet instantly condensed above the star crown, like a star falling to the earth.

"Third soul skill - Starburst!"

This purely offensive spirit skill was incredibly powerful, and its explosive power was comparable to that of a spirit skill that lasted for ten thousand years. However, Huo Yuhao remained calm, as his spiritual detection had already captured the trajectory of the starburst.

At the moment when the star cluster attacked, Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed. Xu Yun felt dizzy, and when he came to his senses, he was shocked to find that the star cluster was actually accelerated by Huo Yuhao's right hand, and then his left hand slashed down like a knife, severing the soul power connection, and the star cluster with terrifying power was held in his palm.

"Are you Xu Yun?" Huo Yuhao played with the star cluster in his hand, leaving Xu Yun stunned.

"How do you know..." Xu Yun blurted out, and then stopped abruptly.

"Luoli mentioned you to me."

"Who?" Xu Yun frowned slightly, as if he suddenly remembered something. The bastard who disappeared from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion a few years ago seemed to be called Dai Luoli. At that time, the Duchess was assassinated. If Dai Luoli was not only a spirit master of the teens at that time, I'm afraid everyone would suspect that he killed his stepmother and then fled for fear of punishment.

That incident caused quite a stir in Xingluo City, and the White Tiger Duke's Mansion was in turmoil for quite a while.

A hint of realization flashed across Xu Yun's eyes. As a royal lady, she had always looked down upon bastards like Dai Luoli who had mediocre talents, and she was too lazy to even look at them.

"Are you talking about that loser? Do you think you can get close to me by mentioning his name?" Xu Yun said coldly. The noise he just made was enough to attract the officers and soldiers of the military law team. He might be exempted from the death penalty for trespassing into the military camp, but he could not escape the punishment of life imprisonment!

"You scold again?!"

The next second, Xu Yun watched as the star cluster controlled by Huo Yuhao rapidly enlarged before his eyes, and the starlight arrived almost instantly.

As the most beloved little princess of the Xingluo Empire, Xu Yun had been pampered since childhood. How could she have experienced a real life-and-death struggle? This time, she took the initiative to volunteer to join the army to serve the country, and it was only after she repeatedly begged her sister Xu Jiujiu that she was allowed to do so. Xu Jiujiu thought that as long as her sister was placed in the reserve corps and not sent to the front line, she would naturally retreat after her novelty of military life faded.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yun was particularly fascinated by the military life and was still enjoying it after being stationed in Yuming City for several months. After all, the reserve corps was far away from the battlefield, so Xu Jiujiu was relieved to let his sister continue to train.

At this moment, facing the whistling starburst, Xu Yun stood there at a loss, while the bright starlight was already within reach.

She knew the power of this starburst better than anyone else. If she was hit head-on, she would definitely suffer serious damage.

No miracle happened, and no one came to her rescue. She could only watch helplessly as the starburst she had released exploded in front of her chest, and the violent impact force threw her more than ten meters away. With the sound of bones shaking, she fell heavily to the ground. Even with the armor cushioning her, the severe pain still made her curl up into a ball, and her whole body convulsed.

“You are the loser! Luo Li’s cultivation is close to that of a Soul Emperor, and you, a Soul Sect leader, are qualified to shout here?!” Huo Yuhao had no sympathy at all. He didn’t care whether Xu Yun was a princess or not. If she dared to say that her brother was not, he would still deal with her if the emperor came.

In the last moment before he was seriously injured and fell unconscious, Xu Yun's eyes were still full of shock. Dai Luoli's cultivation level was actually higher than Dai Huabin, who followed the White Tiger Duke to fight on the front line? This was simply unbelievable. What shocked her even more was that the strange boy in front of her was fully capable of killing her and escaping unscathed.
