Chapter 16 Meeting Huo Yuhao for the first time
After returning to the Duke of Bingji's mansion, Li Xingyi immediately told Lin Tantian everything that the several guards in the group had done.
Lin Tantian was furious on the spot. He never expected that his trusted personal guards would treat a living person as nothing for the sake of profit. He didn't care that several of them were Soul Emperor-level fighters. He directly ordered the execution of several of them and implicated the three clans.
He felt very guilty for putting Li Xingyi in danger, but the other party was unwilling to accept compensation no matter what, so he had to give up.
In Li Xingyi's opinion, material compensation is useless. His family has money and connections, so if he really wants something, he will probably be able to get it...
Compared with the favor of a Super Douluo, it is not worth mentioning!
Li Xingyi and Lin Luyu stayed in the Ice Pole Earl's Mansion until a week before the start of school, when they started their journey back home.
This time, Lin Tantian was scared and unexpectedly escorted the two of them to Shrek City in person.
……
The day before school starts.
After signing up, Lin Lu and a few sisters went to the newly opened dessert shop in Shrek City.
Li Xingyi calculated the time accurately and went to the Star Forest.
Tang Ya had recently reached level 30 in her cultivation. Today was the day that Bei Bei accompanied her to hunt for her third soul ring, but it was also the day they met Huo Yuhao.
The two of them were in a walking and playing mentality along the way, and their speed was not very fast.
Not long after, the two were seen not far from the entrance of the Star Forest.
"I call this smart, okay? If you say wise, I can actually accept that. Besides, I ate so much grilled fish from that little guy. Regardless of whether he chooses to join the Tang Sect or not, I should at least take care of him!" Tang Ya said playfully.
Bei Bei nodded seriously beside him and said, "Let's do it! I just had the same idea!"
Hearing the conversation between the two, Li Xingyi sensed something was wrong.
It seemed that he had miscalculated the time. The two of them had already met Huo Yuhao for the first time!
“But it doesn’t matter. There are no Tianmeng Ice Silkworms in the Star Dou Great Forest now. It is impossible for Huo Yuhao to absorb the Wind Baboons with inappropriate properties. It should still be in time. If he has snatched the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm from others, he should at least compensate them with a spirit ring!” Li Xingyi muttered to himself.
Then he quickened his pace to catch up with Tang Ya and Bei Bei in front.
He pretended to be ignorant and asked, "Will you join the Tang Sect? What's going on? Sister Ya, you are not trying to trick anyone into joining the Tang Sect again, are you?"
Hearing this, Tang Ya was speechless for a moment, and said: "What are you talking about? Even though our Tang Sect has declined, not just any Tom, Dick or Harry can join us, okay!"
"Sister Ya, please don't be fooled by yourself. When you didn't even know me, you asked me if I would join the Tang Sect. What you said now is completely different!"
That’s right, the opportunity for Li Xingyi to meet Tang Ya and Bei Bei was when Tang Ya asked Li Xingyi whether he wanted to join the Tang Sect.
But in the end Li Xingyi refused.
Although he had forgotten most of the plot of the original novel of Unrivaled Tang Sect, he still remembered clearly that Tang San was a hypocrite, especially the things that tricked Huo Yuhao...
The Tang Sect was founded by Tang San. Although the current Tang Sect has little to do with Tang San, Li Xingyi just doesn't want to have anything to do with Tang San.
Although Li Xingyi refused, it did not prevent the three of them from becoming friends.
"Okay Xiaoya, aren't you two tired of having a little quarrel every time you meet?"
Beibei got between the two of them and stretched out his hand to stop them.
Tang Ya pouted and pretended to be angry, "He was the first to be picky about food. I, Sect Master Tang Ya, have a keen eye for talent. I knew he was a talent at first sight. I recruited him with good intentions, but ended up being criticized for several years."
Seeing this, Beibei quickly turned around and comforted her with a smile: "Xiaoya, don't bother with him. He is just a child."
Then he turned and looked at Li Xingyi. "Xingyi, actually..."
Bei Bei told Huo Yuhao about how he and Tang Ya had just met Huo Yuhao and how they had eaten Huo Yuhao's grilled fish. He also said that he was ready to help Huo Yuhao hunt a spirit ring as payment for the grilled fish.
Li Xingyi had exactly this intention.
Then he urged: "Hurry up, the child you mentioned should not have gone far, there is still time to go over now!"
The three of them looked at each other and nodded, then trotted off in the direction Huo Yuhao had left.
……
A few minutes later, the three saw the figure of a blue-haired boy in the distance.
The boy was very thin, almost skin and bones. He staggered to his feet, holding on to the tree beside him, but had to support himself with his hands on his knees because of the pain.
Obviously, this person is Huo Yuhao.
There was a dagger stuck in the tree beside Huo Yuhao. It was the White Tiger Dagger, the only gift his father gave to his mother.
Not far from him lay the corpse of a wind baboon, with a whitish ten-year soul ring floating above the corpse.
It seems that Huo Yuhao has relied on luck to accidentally trigger the special ability of the White Tiger Dagger and killed the Wind Baboon. It’s a pity that the Wind Baboon’s attributes are not suitable, and without the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, he is unable to absorb the first soul ring.
At this moment, the voice of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm suddenly came into Li Xingyi's head.
[Xingyi, that kid over there has a spiritual spirit! This is a very rare spirit, but unfortunately his talent is so poor. I think his skeleton is twelve years old, but he has only just reached level ten.]
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm spoke at the right moment.
Li Xingyi was originally worried about how to find a spiritual soul beast of the right age, but the sound of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm immediately gave Li Xingyi hope.
He used a trace of spiritual power to whisper: "Brother Tianmeng, Sister Ya wants him to join the Tang Sect. Can you help me find a spiritual spirit beast nearby?"
[It's easy for me...but you two only met once, do you really want to help him? ]
"My father taught me that I should help the weak to the best of my ability," Li Xingyi replied righteously.
[This sense of justice... roo roo~ You are worthy of being chosen by me. With this character, you are destined to succeed in the future! ]
【Then I will help you with this! 】
Then, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm released its powerful mental power, which gradually spread around, searching for spiritual soul beasts like a carpet.
The search will take some time.
The three of them came in front of Huo Yuhao at this time.
Beibei has some talent in mental power. He can feel three different mental power fluctuations in the environment at this moment, but he cannot perceive them in detail and specifically.
Although he was very surprised, he didn't say anything.
"Xiao Haohao, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?" Tang Ya shouted anxiously as she moved closer to Huo Yuhao.
He looked left and right, and only felt relieved after confirming that there were no external injuries.
Creatures like wind baboons can only use wind blades as an attack besides biting and scratching. The lack of external wounds proves that they are not injured.
