Chapter 69: Let Huo Yuhao comfort Zhu Lu
"How did you come up with this combination and arrangement of the core magic array?" Xian Lin'er was utterly astonished by her godson's ingenious ideas. Just when she thought she had it all figured out, Huo Yuhao always managed to come up with something new.
The silver-white spherical soul tool she held in her hand was a brand-new soul tool device that Huo Yuhao had just created.
"After thinking about it, if this level one core magic array for lighting and heating is combined with a level one magic array for ignition, then the soul power consumed by the ignition magic array alone can be reduced by the heating effect."
"Based on this, combined with this level one miniature wind-gathering array, the wind helps the fire burn, which reduces the soul power consumed by using the ignition array alone by one-third, while increasing the power to a certain extent."
"Good idea. This approach of reducing soul power consumption is not common in the field of basic soul tools. It is usually only in the field of intermediate and advanced soul tool masters that people consider the issue of soul power consumption when faced with the production of those complex intermediate and advanced soul tools. You don't need to think too much about this direction for now, just lay a solid foundation first." Xian Lin'er patted Huo Yuhao's head and looked at him with a doting expression.
Huo Yuhao was somewhat at a loss. Even when Huo Yun'er was still alive, it was rare for her to pat his head like this. Besides, he was, after all, a human soul, and Xian Lin'er's action made him a little embarrassed.
Just when Huo Yuhao was suffering and enduring, his savior finally arrived!
The gate to the Ninth Experimental Zone slowly opened, and Qian Duoduo strode in.
When Xian Lin'er saw him coming, she immediately stopped patting Huo Yuhao's head, picked up Huo Yuhao's previous work, and proudly shared her joy with Qian Duoduo.
However, before Xian Lin'er could say much more, Qian Duoduo interrupted her somewhat helplessly.
"Lin'er, let's talk about Yuhao's work later. I have something to tell him first, and there are people waiting for him outside."
Seeing this, Xian Lin'er had no choice but to suppress her desire to share for the time being, after all, she had important things to do. Besides, she wasn't some kind of fairy who didn't know her place, and in terms of perspective, Yan Shaozhe was even better than her.
Upon hearing Qian Duoduo's words, Huo Yuhao glanced at the mechanical watch hanging on the wall. It was almost seven o'clock, so Ma Xiaotao should be arriving soon.
"Yuhao, I just went to the outer courtyard's sanatorium and met that girl named Zhu Lu. She asked me if her martial soul seal could be removed ahead of schedule. I didn't have time to ask you before, so I don't know either. I just made an appointment with her for you. Please find some time to meet her then."
"We can't break the seal for her in advance, but we can at least comfort her a little. She's a pitiful girl. That irresponsible brat Dai Huabin woke up and ran off; Zhu Lu hasn't even seen him. The Dai and Zhu families have been linked by marriage for generations, and these two are practically childhood sweethearts. Now they even have a Martial Soul Fusion Technique, yet they still don't take good care of their fiancée! This White Tiger Duke's Mansion! I don't know what they've been doing with their children!"
"Ahem!" Xian Lin'er glared at Qian Duoduo with annoyance.
Why did you go by yourself?
Qian Duoduo coughed lightly, embarrassed, knowing he had just said too much.
"Old Yan isn't here, so I went to look for Du Weilun. But that guy's busy right now, so I figured I might as well go myself. Oh, right! Yuhao, you should hurry up and go. Ma Xiaotao is already outside. Remember to keep my appointment later and comfort that kid."
"Cough cough!" Xian Lin'er tugged at Qian Duoduo's clothes in dissatisfaction.
Qian Duoduo didn't understand Xian Lin'er's meaning, but since his wife had already taken action, he had no choice but to shut his mouth.
Huo Yuhao was also stunned by Qian Duoduo's thick skin; asking him to comfort Zhu Lu seemed inappropriate. She had a fiancé, even though he was now his puppet.
"Okay, I got it. Mom and Dad, if there's nothing else, I'll go find Senior Ma Xiaotao now."
Xian Lin'er grabbed Qian Duoduo's arm and said with a smile, "Go quickly, don't keep them waiting."
Huo Yuhao nodded. "Oh, okay. I'll go right away."
After Huo Yuhao left, Xian Lin'er finally let go of Qian Duoduo's arm.
Qian Duoduo was a little confused; he didn't understand why Xian Lin'er had pulled him just now. But he didn't need to think about it anymore, because Xian Lin'er had already explained it herself.
"What you just did! You actually made Yuhao comfort Dai Huabin's fiancée! What were you thinking? Even if Dai Huabin did something wrong, or whatever, you shouldn't have made Yuhao comfort her! Aren't you just pushing Yuhao into this mess between the two families?"
"His roommate Wang Dong, don't tell me you didn't know that girl was a girl disguised as a boy! Not to mention, Yuhao and Xiao Xiao from their class have a close relationship! And now you're going to drag his fiancée from the Dai family into this mess! I don't know what you're thinking! It's infuriating! Oh! Right! There's Ma Xiaotao at the door too. Don't tell me you don't know what Yan Shaozhe is thinking! Extreme Ice is practically Ma Xiaotao's lifesaver; their relationship will definitely be anything but superficial from now on! What kind of mess have you made?!"
Xian Lin'er gently pinched Qian Duoduo's ear, using very restrained force. She looked somewhat angry and complaining, but there was a strange atmosphere hidden beneath the surface.
Qian Duoduo hadn't thought about it that much before, and he didn't intend to think about it that much now. For so many years, he and Xian Lin'er had always treated each other with respect, but today he actually felt a tiny bit of her being affectionate. He had been looking forward to this day and night, and now it had finally happened.
Although it's only the beginning, at least Xian Lin'er has started to walk towards him. Thinking of this, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but grin foolishly.
Seeing that this guy looked completely dumbfounded and wasn't listening to her at all, Xian Lin'er was truly angry this time. She stomped on Qian Duoduo's foot, turned away sullenly, and didn't want to deal with this idiot anymore!
Qian Duoduo winced in pain, watching Xian Lin'er walk away, and quickly called out, "Lin'er! I was wrong!"
Ma Xiaotao learned from her teacher Yan Shaozhe yesterday that her evil fire was suppressed last time because of Huo Yuhao's second martial soul, the adopted son of the two deans of the Soul Guidance Department.
She had originally planned to come and see him yesterday, but Yan Shaozhe told her that Huo Yuhao had faced the Netherworld White Tiger alone in the final of the freshman assessment and had collapsed from exhaustion. Hearing about how he had single-handedly defeated the combined martial soul techniques of the Dai and Zhu families, Ma Xiaotao was quite surprised.
She knew about the talent of the Evil-Eyed White Tiger martial soul; in the next Soul Master Competition, the Shrek Seven Devils had a White Tiger Soul Emperor, Dai Yueheng, who was second only to her.
Ma Xiaotao knew that it was unrealistic for someone of Huo Yuhao's age to defeat the Netherworld White Tiger Martial Soul Fusion Skill of a Soul Master and a Great Soul Master with the strength of a Soul Master.
Recalling the pair of ice-blue phoenix wings she saw before she fainted, Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but feel even more excited about meeting Huo Yuhao soon.
Ma Xiaotao glanced at the mechanical watch on her wrist; it was about time. She had just greeted Qian Duoduo, so she figured it should be about time now.
