Chapter 158 A Gift After a Long Time
Everyone is not stupid, and they can naturally see that this rising star, Lingbing Hou, is very likely to be the future horse-riding master of the Star Luo Empire. It would be beneficial to establish a good relationship with him in advance.
As the music reached its climax, Xu Jiujiu suddenly stepped on Huo Yuhao's thigh, using the momentum to leap into the air and complete an elegant flip. She landed lightly to Huo Yuhao's left, leaning against his chest, her body turned to the side, her center of gravity shifting backward as if she were about to fall.
Huo Yuhao reached out and supported her back, his body also leaning back to the left, but he stood firmly and supported her for a long time.
The last note abruptly ended, and the dance floor fell into a brief silence. Huo Yuhao remained in his final pose, gazing at the slightly flushed cheeks of the person in his arms.
Her purple eyes trembled slightly, shimmering with a profound light. Her delicate lips curved into a soft arc. She raised her hand and gently stroked Huo Yuhao's cheek, playfully brushing against Huo Yuhao's long eyelashes.
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, helped Xu Jiujiu up, and the two of them gracefully bowed to the crowd, which immediately made the applause and cheers around them even more enthusiastic.
As expected, as soon as he stepped off the dance floor, the socialites and noblemen around him all tried to strike up a conversation, but after a long while, they all politely turned them away for him.
Dai Hao stared intently at Huo Yuhao, who was the center of attention, clenched his fists, but did not lash out. Instead, he silently left the banquet hall.
There's still a chance, there's still a chance —
Blood is thicker than water. He may disown me, but Yun'er will never disown me!
After the banquet, Huo Yuhao sat in the carriage, gazing at the bright, dazzling starry sky, and let out a soft breath.
If a girl is so "proactive" towards you, then that's probably a sign of "liking" her, right?
Zhang Lexuan, Ma Xiaotao, and Ning Tian—
We can't let their kindness go unappreciated.
"This guy isn't all blockheads after all—"
On her soft, large bed, Xu Jiujiu's cheeks flushed a lovely blush as she hugged her pillow and made happy noises.
But—it seems I'm not the only one.
No, I absolutely cannot fall behind!
After a long while, she gritted her teeth and looked at the exquisite box that had been prepared in advance, which was the gift she had prepared to give to Huo Yuhao.
But I feel these gifts are a bit too little. Should I give something else?
He—he probably wouldn't use it for anything strange, would he?
Thinking this, she slowly and deliberately removed her stockings and high heels after a long while.
Somewhat guiltily, he closed the suitcase, then after a long pause, cleared his throat and said, "Someone come here!"
Immediately, a maid opened the door after a long silence and entered, respectfully asking, "Your Highness, what are your orders?"
"Send this to Marquis Lingbing's residence and tell him that I, the princess, wish him a bright future."
Heavenly Soul Empire, Haotian Sect.
The Ascension Pavilion was once destroyed by Bailidu, but since it was a place to worship the sea god, the Haotian Sect rebuilt it.
Although they lost many of the backup plans left behind by Tang San, the Haotian Sect's millennia-old foundation remains. For example, they have always enshrined a statue of the Sea God here.
The Haotian Sect guys who wield hammers also did a good job with the sculpture. The statue is a three-times enlarged version of Tang San, and it looks much more realistic than the Shrek Academy statue.
Especially the expression on the statue, still that compassionate and merciful expression, as if pitying the suffering of the world, so lifelike.
This sea god statue has many uses. Not only can it communicate with Tang San in the God Realm, but it can also be nourished by the light of the sea god. It can even be used to teleport to the sea god family in the ocean.
Of course, one needs to offer faith to the statue before using it. The Niu brothers had to kneel before the Sea God statue for a long time along with the people from the Haotian Sect before they were allowed to use it.
"We will obey our Third Brother's orders; the guidance of the Sea God is what we will pursue!"
After receiving Tang San's orders, Niu Tian, whose injuries had mostly healed, slammed his fist on the table and stood up. "We must deliver a heavy blow to those Shrek Academy guys!"
Ever since Wang Dong was attacked by the Demon Queen, a manifestation of the Abyss Saint King's divine consciousness, he chose to return to the Haotian Sect, citing low spirits as the reason.
Seeing their child unable to sleep all day and looking so frightened, the elderly fathers Niu Tian and Titan were naturally heartbroken.
Although the fault did not lie with Shrek Academy, they failed to provide adequate protection. Furthermore, with Tang San's decree, it became natural to reprimand Shrek Academy this time.
Of course, there's also the intention of sending Wang Dong back to Shrek Academy to continue his studies.
Her mission is not yet complete; she hasn't yet snagged the golden prince, the Chosen One of the Planes. How can she continue to rest at the Haotian Sect?
Titan, standing to the side, also adopted a "me too" attitude, waving his fist, which was as big as a casserole dish.
"Don't worry, big brother, I'll personally take care of it! I'll definitely teach those Shrek guys a lesson."
"No! You can't go." Niu Tian waved his hand. "The person who attacked us last time hasn't shown up again, and we're all in bad shape. If we act rashly, it might alert the God Realm."
"That's true—but brother, what should we do?"
Seeing his brother's intense gaze, Niu Tian felt a little strange, but still said, "After all, the Haotian Sect and Shrek Academy still have some ties, and Shrek Academy is also the most important part of Tang San's ten-thousand-year plan. We can't let the relationship become too strained."
"How about this? Let Elder Tang take a few elders to Shrek City and have them greet their dean warmly. If necessary, they can also demonstrate the strength of our Clear Sky Sect."
Titan nodded thoughtfully. "What should we do with that kid named Lan Xuanyu?"
This is someone Tang San specifically mentioned, so they can't afford to ignore him.
Niu Tian frowned, his tone tinged with displeasure. "He failed in his duty by not protecting Dong'er. How about this, arrange for a few disciples of similar cultivation level to find a place in Shrek City to teach him a lesson."
"It's strange that someone would actually think of using a martial soul like the Blue Silver King to control the elements—should we call him stupid or clever?"
'
"A hereditary marquisate! Good heavens, I remember that title is only one rank below a duke! Son, you're amazing!"
Huo Yuhao gave a wry smile. "This is the best way to get revenge on the Dai family. It's also a kind of deal with the royal family."
.
Huo Yun'er smiled and patted Huo Yuhao's head. "Alright—my little Yuhao has grown up. He's much more careful than his mother. Marquis, the Huo family has produced a great talent."
Huo Yuhao smiled.
But after hesitating for a moment, he tentatively spoke up, "Mom, that guy surnamed Dai is very likely to come looking for you—you should understand what I mean, right?"
