Chapter 94 Oranges
As he spoke, a complex emotion flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes.
Orange felt his gaze and her heart fluttered slightly.
After all, Huo Yuhao is just too handsome now.
Any reasonably normal woman would feel uneasy under his intense gaze.
It would be a lie to say that my heart wouldn't race.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao quickly shook his head, adjusting his emotions.
He changed the subject, his expression returning to normal: "My name is Huo Yuhao, and these are Gu Yuena and Qiu'er."
Huo Yuhao briefly introduced himself and his two companions, then asked, feigning ignorance, "And you?"
Upon hearing this, Orange also came to her senses.
She quickly said, "My name is Orange, and I am a student at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. I am so grateful to you all for today. If you hadn't helped me, I'm afraid I would have died at the hands of this evil soul master."
"It was nothing," Huo Yuhao said calmly.
Hearing this, Gu Yuena glanced at the orange and quickly recalled the connection between Huo Yuhao and this person from her memories. Her eyes immediately lit up with curiosity, and she asked with interest, "How come you were being chased by an evil soul master?"
"If I heard correctly, you said you were working for the Crown Prince of the Sun Moon Empire, right?"
When Ju Zi saw that Gu Yuena had heard this, her expression changed slightly, and she lowered her head and whispered:
"I am one of Crown Prince Xu Tianran's men. I was originally ordered to come here on a mission, but I didn't expect to encounter an evil spirit master from the Holy Spirit Cult. I don't know why, but he attacked me as soon as he saw me, without paying any attention to what I was saying."
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao frowned: "What? Xu Tianran sent you out on a mission? Aren't you still a student? And shouldn't Xu Tianran trust you a lot?"
Upon hearing this, Ju Zi gave a bitter smile: "So what if I'm a student? I'm not royalty after all. His Highness the Crown Prince adopted me and even allowed me to study soul tools at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. I have no way to repay such kindness."
"I can only do what he says... As for trust, although I don't know where you got that idea from, His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't trust me, after all, I've only been under his command for less than a year."
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment when he heard what Ju Zi said.
He quickly realized what was happening.
That's right, when I first met Orange in my past life...
I am already fourteen years old.
Orange is already eighteen or nineteen years old.
Presumably, Ju Zi hasn't done the deed of taking the knife for Xu Tianran yet.
That absolute trust has not yet been established at this time.
"That's true..." Huo Yuhao muttered subconsciously.
Seeing this, Ju Zi didn't ask any further questions, and continued, "I'm so grateful to you all for what happened today. If it weren't for your help, I'd probably be dead by now."
"Judging from your attire, you three are probably not from the Sun Moon Empire. May I ask where you are from?"
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment before saying, "We are all from the Heavenly Soul Empire, from Heavenly Dou City."
"I see. Since the three of you have come all the way from the Mingdou Mountains, you must be heading to the Sun Moon Empire, right? If you don't mind, I can show you the way."
Seeing how incredibly polite Ju Zi was,
Huo Yuhao, unsure of his own thoughts, did not answer directly.
His gaze fell directly on the two women beside him: "Qiu'er, Gu Yue, what do you two say?"
"I have no objection," Qiu'er said directly.
Gu Yuena shrugged: "We're just following you anyway, so of course it's your decision~ You never ask for our opinions normally, why are you so nervous around this Orange Sister?"
"Gu Yue, stop fooling around..."
Huo Yuhao's lips twitched slightly.
He truly didn't know how to respond to Gu Yuena's teasing.
He could only sigh helplessly and say, "Then I'll trouble you. We were just thinking of going to Mingdu to take a look."
Upon hearing this, Orange smiled slightly and said, "Okay, come with me."
"You've completed your mission?" Huo Yuhao asked, somewhat puzzled. Seeing Huo Yuhao's question, Ju Zi nodded slightly: "Actually, that evil soul master was just a consequence of completing my mission..."
"What mission?" Huo Yuhao frowned again upon hearing this.
Orange sighed softly: "Actually, it's nothing much. I just came to investigate the... evil spirit master's hideout here."
"Huh? Really? Xu Tianran has gone mad? Sending you, a Great Soul Master who's not even a Soul Venerable, to investigate the evil Soul Master's hideout?" Huo Yuhao's expression immediately turned ugly.
"I dare not speak ill of His Highness the Crown Prince... but I have received His Highness's favor after all, and I have no choice but to obey his orders." Ju Zi's tone was calm, as if she had already accepted her situation.
Huo Yuhao's expression, however, was unpredictable, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
"What? Are you worried?" At this moment, Gu Yuena's voice suddenly rang in Huo Yuhao's mind.
"I didn't see you this excited when you were with Dong'er~ Could this be your true love?"
Huo Yuhao glared at Gu Yuena speechlessly: "Don't talk nonsense... She and I are just friends. Whether in the past life or this life, the one I love the most is only Dong'er."
"If Qiu'er hears you say that, she'll make a scene!" Gu Yuena teased.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao opened his mouth but didn't know what to say for a moment.
"But you were really cool just now~ You fell from the sky to save the damsel in distress, and you're so handsome, you should have just pressed your advantage and made her want to marry you, right?"
"Gu Yue!" Huo Yuhao almost gritted his teeth.
Gu Yuena grinned and said, "I'm here~ What's wrong?"
"Tsk, so easily provoked, she gets angry so easily."
"You're overthinking it. There's no need to worry about so many things. If you can't let go, just accept it. You already have so many, one more won't make a difference, right?"
"No way!" Huo Yuhao was quite helpless. He really couldn't do anything about Gu Yuena. He couldn't beat her in a fight, so he could only let her tease him.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's expression, Gu Yuena sighed softly, "You..."
However, at that moment, Huo Yuhao and the other two frowned simultaneously.
They both stopped walking.
Orange was taken aback: "What's wrong?"
"Such a strong aura of resentment... Is he a cultist?"
Gu Yuena's brows furrowed as well: "Although the resentment and evil aura are strong, there's something different about it..."
"This aura doesn't seem to be from Douluo Continent."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao was also shocked: "Not from Douluo Continent?! Could it be that someone in the God Realm is cooperating with an evil soul master?"
"Don't be nervous, it's not from the realm of gods..." Gu Yuena shook her head.
After carefully sensing it, he thought, "This fluctuation feels like...another dimension?"
"How is that possible? How could there be traces of other dimensions in Douluo Continent?"
