Chapter 215 Orange had a premeditated plan (two in one)

Three months later.

In the silent laboratory, Huo Yuhao was holding a spherical piece of titanium in one hand and a carving knife in the other, carving something with concentration.

His movements were very slow, but there was no pause every time he struck the knife. Driven by the palm of his hand, the sharp blade danced flexibly on the surface of the metal ball, just like a textbook core formation carving demonstration. Everyone was delighted to see it.

Next to Huo Yuhao, Orange and Keke were sitting on the left and right, watching this amazing visual feast.

From the beginning to the end, the two of them didn't even dare to take a breath. Those who didn't know it thought they were the ones carving.

As time went by, the hollow patterns on the metal ball became more and more complex. When the last piece of metal debris slowly fell, Huo Yuhao finally put down the carving knife in his hand. Before he could say anything, behind him There was a sound of exclamation.

".genius!"

The sudden sound did not cause Huo Yuhao any trouble, but instead frightened the concentrated Orange and Keke to tremble.

This core carving was originally demonstrated by Huo Yuhao for the two of them, so that the two girls were no less focused than him just now. In addition, they did not have as strong mental power as Huo Yuhao. They wanted to be at such a high level of concentration. It was almost impossible to perceive Xuan Ziwen, whose cultivation level was far beyond theirs, in a concentrated state.

Keke subconsciously turned around, and when she saw Xuan Ziwen appearing behind them at some point, a trace of anger appeared on her face.

"Teacher Xuan, why didn't you say anything when you came? I almost felt my heart coming out just now."

"Ahem, sorry, I saw you were quite focused, so I didn't bother you."

Xuan Ziwen scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and skipped the topic with a smile: "How was it? Did you two gain anything from watching the production of Ling Bing?"

"Originally, I had it, but now I've completely forgotten it after being so frightened by you."

Without giving him a good look, Ke Ke looked at Xuan Ziwen sideways and hummed.

"Teacher Xuan, aren't you doing research in Mingde Hall these days? Why are you suddenly free to visit us?"

Before Xuan Ziwen could answer, she seemed to have thought of something and her eyes lit up: "Could it be that Orange's application for going out to obtain a soul ring has been approved?"

"My guess is pretty accurate. Well, I've brought the registration form. If you want to go too, please fill in your name on it later."

Xuan Ziwen chuckled, and as he spoke, he took out a form from the storage space, but to his surprise, he did not hand the registration form to Orange or Keke, but gave it to Huo Yuhao first.

"I, the teacher, should have taken you to get the soul rings this time, but there is a project in Mingde Hall that is short of manpower. I really can't spare my time, so I can only let you form a group with other students."

After explaining the current situation, Xuan Ziwen looked into Huo Yuhao's eyes and spoke solemnly.

"Lingbing, I'm a little worried about only Orange and Keke. Could you please go with us?"

Although he has never seen Huo Yuhao's true strength, from the past few months of getting along with him, he still has a better understanding of his character.

With such a calm person accompanying him, the safety of this operation will undoubtedly be improved by several levels. And judging from the clues in daily life, he felt that Huo Yuhao's strength may be more than a fifth-level soul engineer.

Seeing that the topic suddenly shifted to himself, Huo Yuhao blinked.

"It can be Teacher Xuan. I happen to have a friend who has recently reached level 50. Can I fill in her name as well?"

Just two days ago, Nana's cultivation level had successfully reached level 50, and she could obtain the fifth soul ring. He originally thought that he would apply to go out after Xuan Ziwen came back from Mingde Hall, but he didn't expect that Orange would happen to do so. It also reached a bottleneck during this period.

"no problem."

Seeing that Huo Yuhao agreed, Xuan Ziwen breathed a sigh of relief: "This is originally a student group. Please fill in the name of that person and I will report it together later."

"OK."

Huo Yuhao didn't say anything else. He wrote his and Nana's names on the form and handed it to Ke Ke who was standing aside.

"...Hmph, it is indeed the Nana who often eats with you."

After casually glancing at the name above, Keke raised her eyebrows as if she had expected it, registering her name while pouting.

"It's not enough to have us two beauties going out with us. We actually want to take other women with us. It turns out that men are all greedy pig trotters~"

The words stopped suddenly, and Ke Ke's whole body felt like it was struck by lightning. After a scream, she stared at the good sister who sneaked up on the soft flesh of her waist.

"Why are you pinching me?"

Orange also stared back not to be outdone, with a resentful tone.

"Don't even look at the weird things you said."

"If you don't tell me, don't tell me. I don't want to create opportunities for you."

Although the two people's voices were not loud, they were extremely clear in the quiet laboratory. Not only Huo Yuhao, but also Zi Mu and Wang Shaojie on the side could hear them clearly.

Looking at the three people having fun, a gloomy look flashed in Wang Shaojie's eyes.

He didn't realize it usually, but when he saw it today, he suddenly realized that the relationship between the two girls and Huo Yuhao had improved so much without knowing it. Even Xuan Ziwen had subconsciously regarded Huo Yuhao as his backbone.

Realizing that his position would be lost if he continued like this, he and Zimu looked at each other, and after a while of eye contact, they gritted their teeth and called out to Xuan Ziwen.

"Teacher Xuan, can we two go together?"

"Huh? Are you going too?"

Seeing Xuan Ziwen looking at them, Wang Shaojie glanced at Huo Yuhao without any trace, and said the excuse he just thought of.

"Zimu and I have recently made several new soul tools, and we thought we would take this opportunity to try out the practical effects. And as you said, Teacher Xuan, we are all classmates, and one more person means another one to take care of you. Right?"

Take care of? It would be nice if you don't cause any trouble.

Already guessing Wang Shaojie's little thoughts, Keke couldn't help but let out a sneer full of contempt, and rolled her eyes to the sky for a moment.

"this"

Xuan Ziwen frowned slightly, feeling a little troubled for a moment. He was naturally aware of the fact that Wang Shaojie had a big prejudice against Huo Yuhao.

However, he realized that as a teacher, it was really not easy for him to intervene in such matters. These young people were in their prime of life. If he interfered forcefully, it might intensify conflicts and have the opposite effect.

After thinking about it, Xuan Ziwen subconsciously looked at Huo Yuhao.

"Ling Bing, do you have any ideas?"

"I?"

Huo Yuhao raised his eyebrows and glanced at Wang Shaojie with a half-smile, his tone not disturbing at all.

"I don't have any problem, I just listen to Teacher Xuan's arrangements."

After rebirth, although he is not as knowledgeable as someone like Wang Shaojie, it does not mean that he can tolerate the other party's stumbling blocks. He just needs to be honest and calm. If this guy really dares to do something in this operation, he I don't mind giving you a lesson.

You must know that the place they are going to next is an inaccessible gathering place for soul beasts. Anything can happen. Taking action at Sun Moon Academy may attract the attention of the royal patrol, but if it is in the Jingyang Mountains, even if you kill yourself , that is also a death certificate.

Seeing that Huo Yuhao had no repulsive feelings, Xuan Ziwen nodded, looked at Wang Shaojie and Zimu again, and warned them in a serious tone.

"Then you two should go together. I have only one request. Once any emergency occurs, all of you must obey Ling Bing's command. Can you do it?"

Wang Shaojie's heart sank, and his expression kept changing. As Orange, Keke, and even Zimu beside him expressed their opinions one after another, he reluctantly squeezed out a word through his teeth.

".able."

"In that case, you two should also register and meet at the school gate tomorrow morning. I hope you can all come back safely."

The next morning.

Huo Yuhao and Nana finished washing up early and walked out of the dormitory together towards the entrance of the college.

In three months, he gradually got used to campus life being taken care of by Nana.

There is no need to go to the canteen every day. You will have prepared meals when you return to the dormitory. You don't even need to wash your clothes, quilts and sheets yourself.

If there was anything wrong with it, it was probably that every time he had sex with Snow Emperor, he had to go to the plane of the undead. As a result, he had not had the chance to test the soundproofing effect of the dormitory after coming to Sun Moon Academy for so long.

"Huh? It's actually the two of them? This is really..."

Arriving at the entrance of the college, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but look a little stunned after seeing the two figures of a man and a woman who were very familiar to him.

He has a handsome appearance, exudes a sharp and cold aura, and carries a stick-like long sword on his back. Isn't it Ji Juechen?

As for the ordinary-looking woman next to him, she was naturally Jing Ziyan.

When Huo Yuhao noticed the two of them, Jing Ziyan also noticed them out of the corner of her eye. She turned her head, and after looking Huo Yuhao up and down, she nudged Ji Juechen with her elbow in a teasing manner.

"Hey, I thought you were handsome enough, but I didn't expect that there are boys who are more handsome than you. I really learned a lot this time."

However, Ji Juechen still had a cold face, staring at Huo Yuhao as if he had not heard her teasing.

After a while, he slowly spoke.

"...This person is very strong."

"Ah? You mean that boy?"

As if he did not expect to hear this sentence from Ji Juechen, Jing Ziyan was stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding.

"But he looks much smaller than us, and I can't even feel a breath. How do you know that he is strong?"

"I can't feel the breath either."

Ji Juechen whispered in a determined tone, as if he was very confident in his own judgment.

"Because of this, this young man is not simple."

"...You win."

A long sigh came out of his mouth, and when he looked up again, Jing Ziyan had a hearty smile on his face again.

"You two should also be students participating in the operation, right? Let me meet you. My name is Jing Ziyan. What I want to obtain this time is the sixth soul ring. His name is Ji Juechen. This time I am joining the team as an escort and does not need a soul ring. ”

"Just call me Ling Bing. I am also joining this operation as a companion. This is Nana next to me. She needs a fifth soul ring."

However, just as Huo Yuhao finished speaking, Ji Juechen, who had been silent for the whole time, took a step forward, raised his hand to grab the sword behind him, and said hello in a somewhat stiff voice.

"Hello Lingbing, how about we compare notes."

When these words came out, Nana thought that the other party was deliberately picking a quarrel, and her face suddenly darkened. Ji Juechen seemed to realize that this was a bit abrupt, and added another sentence.

"The others haven't arrived yet, so we're killing time."

"..."

Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched, and the disgust that had been buried deep in his memory surged into his heart again. Fortunately, Jing Ziyan, who was standing by, couldn't stand it anymore, smiled apologetically at him and Nana, then pulled Ji Juechen behind her and said with a warning look.

"Look at what you said? Who would ask someone if they want to fight as soon as they meet?!"

Ji Juechen looked up at Huo Yuhao again, and said seriously: "But I really want to fight him."

"You can't be so direct! If you do this, anyone will refuse, and those who don't know will think you are crazy."

Jing Ziyan glared, and warned with some regret.

"It's just like chasing a girl and asking her out to get a room. You can build a good relationship with her first, and then find an opportunity to propose it tactfully. She will definitely not refuse."

Nana was confused when she heard that this was not a conversation between normal people. Then she remembered the legendary story of Ji Juechen in the academy, and she tilted her head to explain to Huo Yuhao.

The teaching of the strange duo continued. Ji Juechen nodded as if he understood it, and asked.

"Find an opportunity? For example?"

"For example... For example, I heard before that if you want to marry your girlfriend, then the success rate is the highest when you propose to her while she is in the bathroom. You can do this too!"

Jing Ziyan's eyes were shining, and she was plotting loudly without paying attention to others.

"You should first establish a good relationship with him, understand his living habits, and then appear in front of him when he goes to the toilet, and say that you will not leave if he does not agree to compete with you, and the probability of his agreement will be greatly increased!"

"!?"

Sister, your method is really harmful!

And I heard it all!

Huo Yuhao was stunned. Before he could react, he saw Ji Juechen with a look of confidence on his face, striding towards him, and sincerely apologized.

"Sorry, I was a little abrupt just now... There is still a long time, do you want to go to the toilet?"

"..."

In the long silence, only Jing Ziyan sighed and held her forehead, feeling that this guy was really hopeless.

Fortunately, after seeing Huo Yuhao's increasingly dark complexion, Ji Juechen also realized that he seemed to have overlooked the most critical thing to improve his favorability.

After thinking about it, he took out a piece of dry food as hard as stone from the storage space and handed it to Huo Yuhao.

"Did you eat breakfast this morning? Do you want to eat something?"

Silence again.

Nana on the side seemed to be unable to control her expression any longer. She lowered her head suddenly, her shoulders shaking wildly, and even Jing Ziyan couldn't help laughing.

Looking at the dry food in front of him, Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and forced a smile.

"...Thank you for your kindness, but I've already eaten."

"Okay."

As if realizing that Huo Yuhao was not such an easy target, Ji Juechen nodded.

"Then tell me if you want to go to the toilet."

Soon, the tormenting time came to an end after Juzi and others arrived.

Huo Yuhao, Juzi, Nana, Keke, Ji Juechen, Jing Ziyan, Zimu, Wang Shaojie.

These are all the members who went to Jingyang Mountain Range this time. Except for Huo Yuhao, from the overall strength of the team, if they encounter some powerful ten thousand year soul beasts, there may be some risks, but if they just help Jing Ziyan, Juzi and others to obtain soul rings, it is definitely enough.

Soon, the eight people who were ready to go directly turned on the flying soul guide and rushed towards the Jingyang Mountain Range not far away.

It was unknown whether Wang Shaojie had really taken Xuan Ziwen's words to heart. Along the way, he did not directly show hostility towards Huo Yuhao. He and Zi Mu fell to the back of the team, silently looking at the figure in front of him surrounded by three girls like a star.

Zi Mu felt helpless when he saw this scene. After so many years of getting along, how could he not know that his old classmate still had a grudge against Huo Yuhao? After hesitating for a moment, he still reminded him.

"Wang Shaojie, you care too much about Ling Bing. If you continue like this, the relationship will only become more and more strained. We are all classmates, there is no need to make it to this extent..."

However, Wang Shaojie seemed to be stimulated by this sentence and asked back in a cold voice.

"Why, now even you are speaking for him? We have been classmates for so many years, and Ling Bing has only been here for three months, and you are all starting to side with him?"

Zi Mu frowned: "I am just stating the facts, and I don't mean to favor anyone. Take Ling Bing's demonstration to Ju Zi and Ke Ke yesterday, he is absolutely dedicated to his friends, and it is the best choice to make friends with such a person."

"Yeah, isn't it because of this 'devotion' that his relationship with Ju Zi, whom you like, has improved so quickly?"

Wang Shaojie sneered: "Don't tell me you don't regard him as a love rival, and don't tell me you don't care about these things, otherwise you wouldn't have come with me."

"It's true that I like oranges, and I came here to have more contact opportunities, but I'm not going to trip up Lingbing because of this. Everyone is in fair competition. If he can catch oranges, it's his ability. "

Speaking of this, Zimu paused, and his voice became a little distant.

"I'm just telling you this as a friend to remind you. It's up to you whether you want to or not."

"Humph, you don't need to worry about my affairs!"

After flying for several hours, Jing Ziyan's calm voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears.

"We have arrived at the edge of the Jingyang Mountains. It is almost dark today. After flying for a day, everyone's soul power has been exhausted. I propose to go down and rest for a night, and then officially enter the mountains tomorrow to find suitable soul beasts. What do you think? Woolen cloth?"

Naturally, everyone had no objections. Keke even seemed to have thought of something. She rubbed her hands excitedly and looked at the orange beside her with a look of hope.

"Sister Orange, I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time, look."

Seeing Ke Ke's eager look, Orange couldn't help but laugh. However, she did not answer hastily, but suddenly turned her head to look at Huo Yuhao.

"Do you want to eat?"

"Wow! You're such a tangerine, you're so blatantly partial."

While speaking, Ke Ke also raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, looking like she was about to cry.

"I didn't expect that the friendship between classmates for so many years would never be worth a handsome face. It was me who overstepped~you hit me again!"

"Stop coming, or you'll fall down if you don't eat! I'll make sure you don't fart all day long!"

Orange snorted softly: "He taught us how to carve the core formation yesterday. Naturally, I want to see what he thinks first."

"Okay, okay, I know you always have excuses, so I'll spare you this time."

Keke waved her hands magnanimously and looked at Huo Yuhao eagerly.

"Let me tell you, Lingbing, Sister Juzi's cooking is delicious. You must be craving for it now, right?"

The corner of Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched and he nodded helplessly.

".Then I'll trouble you, Orange-senpai."

"I want to thank you. The demonstration yesterday helped me a lot. Let's go down."

Hearing that someone wanted to cook, Jing Ziyan chose a place to camp in an open space next to a stream. The rest of the people were responsible for setting up the tents, while Keke was dragged by Orange to the water's edge to process the ingredients.

"Hey, why did you bring so many ingredients this time?"

Looking at the oranges that were constantly taking ingredients from the storage space, Ke Ke couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Recalling the previous scene where Huo Yuhao was eating at others in the cafeteria, an idea suddenly flashed in her brain and she screamed.

"Okay! It turns out that you have been thinking about treating others to eat. Wuwu——"

Orange covered her mouth and warned fiercely.

"Do you still want to eat?"

"Hmph, you said you are impartial. This chicken has to enter my stomach to stop my mouth!"

"make a deal."

Soon, a bright firelight rose from the night, illuminating the faces of everyone sitting around.

Because we will enter the mountains tomorrow, everyone here can be said to be comrades who rely on each other in the next few days. Naturally, it is not good to eat alone at this time.

But with so many people, Tangerine couldn't bake it alone. After some confusion, she simply gave some of the ingredients and seasonings to the four people sitting across from her, while she was responsible for Huo Yuhao, Keke and Nana's dinner.

There was the buzzing of insects in his ears. Looking at the focused face that was flickering under the light of the fire, a soft color flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes.

"Hmph, are you fascinated by our oranges?"

"A little."

Huo Yuhao nodded without hesitation: "I didn't expect Senior Sister Orange to be so good at cooking."

"Really? Although I'm happy you said that, how do I feel?"

The movements of Orange's hand suddenly stopped, and he looked at Huo Yuhao with burning eyes, asking as if he was joking.

"You don't seem too surprised?"

However, Huo Yuhao seemed to have no reaction at all and said with a smile.

"Those who should be shocked were already shocked when Senior Sister Keke spoke just now."

".It's baked."

As if it was really just a casual question, Orange did not dwell on the topic anymore. After calmly retracting her gaze, she skillfully sprinkled the roasted chicken legs with seasonings and handed them to Huo Yuhao.

"Try it."

"Thank you, senior sister."

Huo Yuhao didn't shirk, he took the hand and took a bite. After chewing, he gave a fair evaluation under the expectant eyes of Keke and Orange.

".tasty."

“As long as it suits your taste.”

Orange relaxed and cooked the other skewers in the same way, sprinkled the seasonings on them and handed them to Keke and Nana. Then he picked up the new skewers and started grilling them.

"Don't you want to eat it yourself?"

"No, I'm not hungry yet."

"."

Without saying anything else, Huo Yuhao picked up two skewers and grilled them on the campfire like an orange.

As if he noticed the surprise on Keke and Orange's faces, he explained with a smile while flipping the skewers.

"I used to bake for others, so I just let Senior Orange have a taste of my craftsmanship."

Orange opened her mouth, but in the end she said nothing. After a while, a string of roasted meats exuding a rich aroma was handed to her.

"ah--"

I don’t know if it was because she noticed the aunt-like smile on Ke Ke’s face, or because this action was like coaxing a child. Although she knew that Huo Yuhao did this because she couldn’t free her hands, Ju Zi inexplicably felt a strong sense of shame in her heart.

After a brief hesitation, she still opened her mouth and bit it.

Then, she was stunned where she was.
