Chapter 191: Goddess of Light
Zhao Yang was indeed a strong Soul Sage, and had great senses. When he saw Huo Yuhao’s calm yet icy-cold eyes, he knew that his roar earlier hadn’t affected him for long. Furthermore, his sense of crisis also rose. Without any hesitation, he used his strongest soul skill.
His pitch-black seventh soul ring suddenly lit up. Just as Huo Yuhao’s Spirit Eyes unleashed the Spiritual Shock that had fused with the purplish-gold light of the Purple Demon Eyes, Zhao Yang’s size ballooned once again. He reached almost five meters tall, and bright golden fur covered his entire body. Apart from his face that still remained mostly human, the rest of him turned into a huge bear.
Yes, this was the change after a soul master obtained seven rings. This was also the divide between an intermediate-level soul master and an advanced-level soul master: Martial Soul True Body!
When a soul master reached a seven-ringed cultivation, his martial soul would change regardless of the age of his soul rings. Their martial souls would truly combine with their bodies, and could now exhibit the Martial Soul True Body.
Once their Martial Soul True Body was activated, their entire body would turn into the form of the martial soul, and their powers would soar. The power of their original soul skills could possibly double. After reaching the Soul Sage level, a soul engineer would find it very difficult to defeat a soul master unless he had special soul tools.
Zhao Yang’s martial soul resisted half the effect of the Spiritual Shock. His head only rocked backward slightly, and he regained his awareness after some momentary confusion. Whether it was his body or his spiritual power, they were enhanced greatly along with his martial soul.
However, his palm still struck air because of Huo Yuhao’s Spiritual Shock. Huo Yuhao wasn’t the only one fighting. A pair of dazzling bluish-gold wings flapped open behind him and pulled him backward. He shifted back by five meters and avoided his opponent’s attack.
Huo Yuhao’s gaze was cold, yet calm. This was his first time fighting a Soul Sage and a Martial Soul True Body. It was even a critical moment. However, he wasn’t anxious. Rather, he was excited.
He cultivated tirelessly so that he could challenge his limits and fight others who were strong. If he were alone, he would never be able to beat a seven-ringed Soul Sage, no matter how strong his twin martial souls were and what soul tools he had. However, he had Wang Dong with him now.
Huo Yuhao shouted, “Get out of the way! Ju Zi, stay back.” As he spoke, his eyes shone with bright golden light. A pair of hands were also wrapped around his waist.
Another shocking scene appeared once again. The bluish-golden wings folded together in front of him, and the golden light that Huo Yuhao emitted became even brighter.
The Golden Road Amidst Withering Resplendence was exhibited once again.
A blue, purple, and gold tri-colored light was converted into a unique ray. This ray of light appeared on a path that Zhao Yang had to cross. Even a Soul Sage couldn’t avoid this attack, as Huo Yuhao had his Spiritual Detection up to pre-empt him.
The terrifying part of the Golden Road wasn’t its offensive strength, but its ability to seal one’s soul skills. Aren’t you using your Martial Soul True Body? Then I shall seal it. A Soul Sage was much weaker without his Martial Soul True Body.
Zhao Yang’s shining golden body was engulfed by the Golden Road. He only felt a wave of scorching heat circulating through his entire body.
When Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong teamed up to fight Jing Ziyan and Ji Juechen, they didn’t unleash the Golden Road fully. After all, they were only sparring. Right now, Zhao Yang was the first to experience the complete version of the Golden Road after Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong’s abilities had increased.
An astonishing scene was instantly revealed.
Zhao Yang’s pace dipped considerably, and the golden hair on his body was melting at an alarming speed. The golden light that was shining from his body also became much brighter.
Huo Yuhao took in a deep breath. After this series of battles, he was also greatly spent. However, he had no intention of resting at this point. If Zhao Yang was allowed to unleash his full abilities, everyone on the mountaintop would die!
“Wang Dong, it’s up to you now.”
“Yes.”
After they unleashed the Golden Road, they switched positions. Huo Yuhao pulled Wang Dong’s right hand, and Wang Dong detached from his back. Huo Yuhao lifted his right hand to guide Wang Dong’s movements. Wang Dong performed a remarkable dance move – he made a hundred and eighty degree turn on one foot.
Wang Dong immediately shifted from Huo Yuhao’s backside to his front. Countless streaks of light around their bodies shot out once again. The lights were blinding, and no one dared to look straight at them.
Time seemed to have stopped at this instant.
The bluish-gold wings started to expand quickly. Instantly, they were already twice their original size.
The Radiant Butterfly Goddess initially had front and back wings only. However, there was an extra emerald middle wing now. It was smooth, bright, and translucent. A thick aura of life exuded from it, the essence of it composed of light and water. This aura of life complemented the aura of light.
The dazzling butterfly wings opened wide. The tri-colored light seemed to shine with other colors now. There seemed to be countless beads of water on the wings reflecting the light. As the light shone, layers of frosty gas were released from the figure’s feet, accentuating the elegance of her slender figure.
As the frost spread, her surroundings seemed to turn into a world of ice and snow. The icy chill also catalyzed shocking changes in Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao’s fused body. A tall, thin figure appeared in the tri-colored light.
It was a lady, a young lady that seemed to have matured. She was more than one meter and eighty centimeters tall. Her slender figure was also very captivating.
She had long, pinkish-blue hair that flowed all the way down to her legs, but her eyes were bright-gold. Even ‘perfect’ was insufficient to describe her captivating figure. Her ravishing beauty overshadowed all the women present.
Every streak of light complemented every curve of her body. No one could describe how they felt when they first saw her. However, everyone’s attention was drawn to her the moment she appeared.
She moved in the next moment. Her slender figure reached into the air, and her tri-colored wings beat to propel her upwards.
Thick icy fog spread from her legs, turning into streaks that surrounded her body as they rose.
A ray of sunlight fell from the sky and shot straight towards her.
A golden halo served as a foil for the birth of a goddess in the light.
She danced in the air. Every step she took was gentle and perfect. Her captivating looks were filled with the sparkle of life and hope. Her wings were a perfect embellishment. As she soaked in the warmth of the light, she danced to the Raiment of Light.
She danced alone within the icy fog as she faced the frightening Violent Goldbear. Her tri-colored wings extended and retracted, underlining her elegance.
On her forehead, a subtle golden rune appeared. However, no one could see it as she danced faster and faster.
As the golden rune flashed, it emitted a gentle glow. The intense undulations of spiritual energy caused her to enter a magical state.
Yes! This was Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong’s last soul fusion skill - A Solitary Dance Amidst the Frost, Raiment of Light!
The lady formed by the Raiment of Light was the same as the one during the Elite Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Dueling Tournament.
Everyone was stunned when they witnessed her ravishing beauty.
Ju Zi was always very confident in her appearance. However, she lowered her head unwittingly at this point. She felt slightly inferior.
Huo Yuhao was willing to call this lady the Goddess of Light. Her beauty was flawless. Her hair didn’t sway in the wind, and her pinkish-blue eyes carried a gentle light. Her snow-white skin that was immersed in the light appeared very enthralling as it was covered by the pair of dazzling wings behind her.
Zhao Yang struggled to escape from the Golden Road, and was able to maintain his Martial Soul True Body. But even he was stunned when he saw her.
If Huo Yuhao hadn’t used so many skills through his Eye of Destiny and had sufficient soul power remaining, his best choice would have been to unleash the Blaze Amidst the Frost, the Heavenly Emperor’s Hammer, after Zhao Yang was attacked by the Golden Road. However, his energy was depleted, and he couldn’t sustain any more fusion skills. That was why he passed the reins to Wang Dong.
This was their second time exhibiting the Raiment of Light. Huo Yuhao was even more shocked now. Even though he had fused with Wang Dong in this fusion skill, he could see it clearly.
The Goddess of Light moved her feet slightly before she reached Zhao Yang.
Zhao Yang’s mind was completely clear at this point. He sighed in his heart, and was even tempted to bow to her. However, he could only throw everything to the back of his mind for the sake of his own survival.
He roared furiously and his huge bear-like palm swung towards the Goddess of Light.
The Goddess of Light suddenly said, “You’re reluctant to bask in sorrow, yet you desire to accompany it for life. Start afresh, and advance!”
The Goddess of Light smiled and raised her index finger to intercept the Violent Goldbear’s huge palm.
“No—!” The soul engineers atop the mountain and the soldiers rushing up the mountain all shouted simultaneously. None of them wanted such a perfect goddess to perish like this! Even Zhao Yang’s bear palm slowed slightly. However, he still struck with full force; if he didn’t kill Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong, he’d die instead.
The instant that the huge bear palm and delicate finger collided, the Goddess of Light’s index finger suddenly turned a strange color.
It was still golden, but it was now somewhat translucent. Her entire right hand seemed to have suddenly become a golden crystal. It was such a beautiful scene that it was even suffocating for those looking at it.
This crystal-like finger managed to resist the huge bear palm.
“Splat!”
Blood spurted out from the back of the bear palm. Zhao Yang screamed in pain. A hole was formed in the middle of his palm by the crystal finger.
The Goddess of Light brushed her left wing and viciously struck the Violent Goldbear in the waist. He staggered a few steps to the side after he was hit, and a wound that was three feet wide and several inches deep was formed.
The Goddess of Light’s right hand was extremely strong. Her finger contained the soul skill of Wang Dong’s Broken Devil of Light Right Arm Bone! All its power was focused on a single point. After the enhancement of the Raiment of Light, this destructive finger was the strongest strike Wang Dong could muster with his current abilities. Zhao Yang was in deep trouble as he tried to withstand the attack.
As the Goddess of Light’s wing struck Zhao Yang aside, a cluster of golden light was released from her body, engulfing him.
Something weird occurred. The blood that had spurted out from Zhao Yang’s palm seemed to have frozen, and landed on the ground with a thud. Zhao Yang’s body also turned rigid. There seemed to be a layer of frost covering his body.
After this, the Goddess of Light struck out with her left hand. Her left hand was also golden, but the glow from it was different from the transparent gold that was emitted from her right hand. It resembled golden flares that burned, and these golden flares were icy-cold.
The golden light fog was the product of Wang Dong’s soul power and Huo Yuhao’s Domain of Perpetual Ice. It fused the power of light and Ultimate Ice. Her left hand was the fusion of Wang Dong’s Golden Light Left Arm Bone and Huo Yuhao’s Ice Empress’ Pincer. It seemed to be drifting in the air, but it was the strongest strike of the Goddess of Light after their abilities had improved.
The tremendous pain caused the Violent Goldbear’s eyes to turn blood-red. He turned around, and his body shone with bright golden light. His sixth soul ring flashed, and a gigantic projection of a giant bear instantly appeared behind his back.
This gigantic projection burst forward, and his left arm doubled in size once again. His hair also turned dark-golden.
This was Zhao Yang’s strongest offensive soul skill – the Darkgolden Terrorpalm. This palm tapped into the shred of the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear’s lineage in the Violent Goldbear. As it was used by his Martial Soul True Body, it was also his most destructive skill.
Golden flares were already burning. The Goddess of Light’s aura changed again. The Sovereign’s Descent turned her sanctity into superiority, as if she were a queen that overlooked the mortal world. Her entire body turned illusory at this point. Only the golden flares on her left arm still remained as bright and blinding as ever.
At this instant, everyone watching this fight was praying in their hearts. They were praying for the goddess in their hearts.
No one hoped that Zhao Yang would win.
“Splat!”
Just as both parties were about to clash, Zhao Yang’s left hand blew apart. The intense pain instantly diminished the might of his Darkgolden Terrorpalm.
His right hand had been infused with the aura of Ultimate Ice after it had encountered the Broken Devil of Light. The Domain of Perpetual Ice had also frozen his palm further.
It seemed like Zhao Yang had used his Martial Soul True Body to resist the Domain of Perpetual Ice. However, his blood circulation fell by a third of its original rate. His movements seemed to have stalled slightly too. The wound on his right hand was also frozen up to a few inches.
Anything that was ice could be detonated by the Ice Explosion Technique. Even though the Ice Explosion Technique didn’t mix with Zhao Yang’s soul power, the pain was still tremendous as his palm suddenly blew apart. The impact on him was huge.
“Boom!”
The Darkgolden Terrorpalm and the Goddess of Light’s left palm collided.
The Goddess of Light flew back like a broken kite. Her body was still in the air, but the light shining from her dimmed. As her figure flashed, she was separated back into Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao, and they crashed to the ground. They were both bleeding profusely; they were evidently badly injured.
Huo Yuhao pulled Wang Dong in front of him just as they were about to land on the ground, protecting him from the fall. He crashed into the ground heavily, and slid for more than ten meters before he stopped. An intense pain engulfed his entire body. He blacked out immediately.
The Violent Goldbear quietly stood where he was. Golden flares slowly but steadily spread across his entire arm before they proliferated to the rest of his body.
When his entire body was covered by golden flares, a flashing golden sun seemed to have appeared at the top of the mountain. This golden sun shone extremely brightly.
Everyone subconsciously shut their eyes. They were at a loss, and didn’t know what was going on.
When the golden lights finally dimmed, and everything returned to normal, they realized that the Violet Goldbear had disappeared. Only a patch of ash was left behind.
Radiant Flare, Ultimate Ice, Raiment of Light, Sovereign’s Descent!
Everything had ended. Zhao Yang’s death also signified that the rebel troops had been defeated. The Sun Moon Empire’s troops killed all the enemy soldiers as they rushed up the mountain. Surrender wasn’t a choice anymore; all of them were mercilessly killed.
Perhaps they were motivated by the Goddess of Light, but the empire’s soldiers on the battlefield were ebullient, as if they had taken stimulants.
Their commander had briefed them that the Crown Prince’s fiancée was stuck at the top of the mountain before they attacked, and that they were here to save her. They had witnessed the battle between the Goddess of Light and the Violet Goldbear, and finally emerged victorious.
Not all the soldiers knew who Ju Zi was. They thought that the Goddess of Light was the Crown Prince’s fiancée! Fighting for the Crown Prince’s wife motivated all of them. Even Huo Yuhao didn’t expect that the Raiment of Light would be able to increase the morale of the soldiers so effectively. The figure of the Goddess of Light was deeply imprinted in the heart of every soldier.
“Yuhao, Yuhao. How are you?”
Although Wang Dong was also injured, his cultivation was higher than Huo Yuhao’s. Huo Yuhao had unleashed the Sovereign’s Descent with all his might in the last strike, sapping all his spiritual power. Furthermore, Huo Yuhao had borne all the impact of the Violet Goldbear’s attack. That was why Wang Dong wasn’t critically injured.
Fresh blood flowed out of Huo Yuhao’s nose. His entire face was very pale, and his breathing was very weak.
Wang Dong regretted his willfulness. If not for his impulsiveness, Huo Yuhao wouldn’t have been brought to this battlefield and met such a strong enemy!
When he lifted Huo Yuhao up, his palms were totally covered in blood. He lowered his head as he looked at Huo Yuhao’s back. His eyes turned red instantly.
The entire mountain was covered in rocks, and was completely barren. The ground was extremely hard, and filled with rocks of uneven sizes.
When the two of them were struck by the Darkgolden Terrorpalm, they were already spent. They had no soul power to unleash any soul skills or use any soul tools to protect themselves.
The flying-type soul tool behind Huo Yuhao was crushed by the heavy impact and frictional force. The back of his shirt was covered in blood and broken pieces of the soul tool. His entire back had been grazed by the rocks as he slid after crashing to the ground, leaving bloody wounds behind.
He had left a foot-wide trail of blood behind him.
Wang Dong felt as if there was a heavy rock on his chest, and the heartache made it difficult for him to breathe. He didn’t have much soul power left, but he was trying his best to pour his soul power into Huo Yuhao’s body. He was squeezing every drop of soul power he had into Huo Yuhao.
Ju Zi also rushed over at this point. She was much calmer than Wang Dong. After all, she had experienced such a situation before. She retrieved a medicinal bottle and shouted to Wang Dong, “Lie him down on your legs. There’s no point in crying. Saving him is the important thing now.”
“Yes.” Wang Dong’s voice was trembling. He took in a deep breath and gritted his teeth. He allowed his tears to stream down. He sat on the ground first before laying Huo Yuhao down carefully on his legs.
Ju Zi passed the medicinal bottle to him and said, “I’ll clean the wounds while you scatter the powder on them. It’ll help stop the bleeding.”
Wang Dong said, “Let me clean the wounds.” He had calmed down at this point. Compared to Ju Zi, he was familiar with Huo Yuhao. He knew that Huo Yuhao’s recuperative abilities were very strong. While his injuries were critical, he wasn’t in any real danger. He was unwilling to let someone else treat Huo Yuhao, as he didn’t trust her.
Ju Zi was furious. “Are you going to fight me on this?”
Wang Dong lifted his head and glared at her. He shouted, “Let me do it!”
Ju Zi was shocked when she heard him. She was surprised that Wang Dong’s voice was crisper and even more harmonious than her own.
For some reason, she didn’t persist. Wang Dong’s hands were already moving swiftly, and his ten fingers shone with dim golden light, displaying his great dexterity. He managed to quickly remove all the dirt from Huo Yuhao’s back and stitched up his wounds. Then the bleeding was stopped.
Ju Zi was silent as she opened the medicinal bottle and scattered the powder on Huo Yuhao’s wounds. There was one thing in common between her and Wang Dong. They were both crying. Wang Dong had to wipe his tears off several times with his sleeves to keep his vision from blurring. However, some of his tears still dripped onto Huo Yuhao’s mangled body.
Different scenes played out in their minds. Ju Zi thought of how Huo Yuhao had saved her in the Jing Yang Mountain Ranges, and how he looked when he was grilling meat, whereas Wang Dong recalled how Huo Yuhao had pulled him into his arms just after the Raiment of Light ended. As the two of them crashed to the ground, Huo Yuhao’s eyes were filled with resolve even though he was in pain. He did his best to prevent them from switching positions, bearing the brunt of the attack himself with his body.
The war had ended, the rebel troops were exterminated. The empire’s army completed the encirclement, with the mountain that Huo Yuhao and the rest were on at the center. Right now, the soul engineers remained standing even though they were all extremely fatigued. None of them sat down to rest. They all looked in Huo Yuhao’s direction, who was pale and unconscious on the ground. They were watching Wang Dong as he treated Huo Yuhao.
All of them knew that they would have died on the battlefield if not for the two of them. They were their benefactors!
Wang Dong and Ju Zi finally completed their treatment of Huo Yuhao. They looked into each other’s eyes and saw relief within them.
Ju Zi moved over to, and squatted down beside, Wang Dong. She whispered something in his ear.
Wang Dong’s body stiffened up, and he twisted his head to look at Ju Zi. Finally, he nodded his head determinedly.
Ju Zi shut her eyes and took in a deep breath. She said, “I know.”
Wang Dong didn’t look at her again, but lifted Huo Yuhao’s arms onto his shoulders before carefully lifting him.
When Huo Yuhao regained consciousness, he discovered that he was in a huge tent. He was in a prone position. Then he saw a handsome sleeping face with tear stains beside him.
Intense, prickling pain could be felt on his back, causing Huo Yuhao to recall everything that had happened earlier.
He revealed a self-deprecating smile on his face. Who did my back offend? Why is it always the thing that gets hurt? It seems like I’ll have to create something to protect my back the next time I create soul tools.
He shut his eyes, and the battle that had ensued earlier replayed itself in his mind. As he recalled what had happened, he soon realized that something went wrong.
They were very fortunate to have won. After the Goddess of Light struck, they were out of fighting strength. They were only able to win because Zhao Yang wasn’t familiar with them. Their martial soul fusion skill and soul skills played very important roles.
However, they could have won easily. That was because Huo Yuhao was also a Class 6 soul engineer, in addition to being a soul master! However, he forgot about his identity as a soul engineer when he teamed up with Wang Dong in that battle. He made a huge mistake.
“It seems like I’m still a soul master at heart!” Huo Yuhao sighed.
He also realized his lack of abilities compared to an advanced-level soul master. Huo Yuhao had always believed that he could challenge a seven-ringed Soul Sage if he could beat a six-ringed Soul Emperor. However, this battle was a huge blow to him. He knew he’d been arrogant as of late because he was too used to winning.
Yes, he had beaten many five-ringed and six-ringed soul masters in the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy. However, they were soul engineers, and not soul masters. Soul engineers were indeed explosive and destructive. However, Teacher Wang Yan’s words were the most accurate. In the future, the strongest soul masters would be equipped with the best soul tools. That was the only way he could truly become strong.
The Sun Moon Imperial Soul Academy had also realized this point. That was why Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen had appeared. The higher-level opponents he had beaten were either soul engineers or soul masters. In reality, he was a combination of soul master and soul engineer, which gave him an advantage. To put it into perspective, would he able to defeat his eldest and third senior if they were equipped with the best soul tools?
I’m only a Soul Ancestor!
Huo Yuhao repeated these words three times in his mind. The arrogance that was flaming in his mind disappeared. He also started to calm down.
It was important for one to balance their psychological mindset. This was especially important for those constantly under pressure. In this he did well.
Huo Yuhao was grateful towards Elder Yi. If he hadn’t allowed him to keep the Ominous Soul-Devouring Knife, enabling him to exhibit the Life Guardian’s Blade and fuse with the immense power of the Life Gold, he would have been stripped of his skin several times over, even if he didn’t die.
His injuries weren’t as serious now compared to the other time, but they weren’t light either. Huo Yuhao had borne most of the impact from Zhao Yang’s Darkgolden Terrorpalm, hurting his internal organs. The final crash had also inflicted some pretty serious injuries. It had been some time after the battle ended, and he still felt intense pain in his back. However, his passageways and internal organs were healing well. This was the effect of his immense life power.
He extended one hand and touched Wang Dong’s hand. Huo Yuhao slowly initiated his soul power and poured it into Wang Dong’s body. Wang Dong’s body jerked slightly as their Haodong Power circulated.
“Yuhao, are you awake?” Wang Dong lifted his head, but he was still a little hazy.
Huo Yuhao twisted his head to look at him, “I can’t sleep forever, now can I? Did you cry?”
“No!” Wang Dong was completely awake now, and replied loudly.
Huo Yuhao laughed, “Alright, alright, of course you didn’t. You’re a man though. A man can bleed but not cry. Don’t cry so much in the future. Don’t you know that I am stubborn? How can I be killed off so easily?”
Wang Dong rolled his eyes at him, “You’re already in this state. What’s there to brag about? How are you?”
Huo Yuhao laughed bitterly. “Of course I’m suffering.”
Wang Dong revealed a look of heartache. “Why were you so foolish to bear the attack by yourself?”
Huo Yuhao chortled, “I couldn’t let you bear this pain. Look at your tender and delicate skin. Mine’s all old and thick compared to your skin. Don’t worry, I’m fine. But you look quite fatigued. Let’s circulate our power.”
“Alright.” Wang Dong nodded and initiated the Haodong Power to complement Huo Yuhao’s circulating soul power.
Huo Yuhao said, “You’re a little too weird like this. Get up.” As he spoke, he shifted a little to the side. However, he accidentally strained the wounds on his back, and was suddenly struck by immense pain.
“Don’t move. I can do it myself.” Wang Dong stopped him. He didn’t think too much, and laid beside Huo Yuhao. Huo Yuhao was prone and his head was to one side. Wang Dong had no choice but to lie on his side since this place was narrow. He grabbed onto Huo Yuhao’s hands and initiated his soul power.
Huo Yuhao suddenly laughed.
Wang Dong sensed the aura from him, and a dim red glow appeared on his face. “What’re you laughing at?”
Huo Yuhao chortled, “Nothing. I just think it’s a little weird that we’re looking at each other like this.”
Wang Dong, “What’s weird? I’m not even despising your small eyes yet.”
Huo Yuhao laughed, “I’m not looking down on your long eyelashes either. But they’re so long that they’re going to brush across my face.”
“You!” Wang Dong’s eyes opened wider, and he was in a daze as he stared at Huo Yuhao.
Wang Dong didn’t get back at him, but only said furiously, “On account of your injuries, I won’t beat you. Circulate your soul power quickly. You’re already in this state, and you’re still joking.”
“I can only speak like this with you.” Huo Yuhao said leisurely. As he spoke, he shut his eyes and circulated his soul power.
Wang Dong made a clown face at him before shutting his eyes too. He circulated his soul powers too.
Neither of them realized that someone was watching quietly from a slit in the opening of the tent…
Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao cultivated all the way until night fell. Huo Yuhao managed to recover significantly via his shocking recuperative abilities. While his injuries weren’t completely healed, he was at least able to move now. It was just that he couldn’t move around too actively.
When he saw Ju Zi again, Huo Yuhao could sense that she was exhausted. She came with Ke Ke and even brought a huge box of food.
Eight dishes, one soup, two piping bowls of rice. The dishes were very exquisite, and didn’t seem that they could be whipped up from the mush commonly found in the military.
“How’s your body?” Ju Zi asked Huo Yuhao. For some reason, Huo Yuhao could clearly sense that she was concealing her emotions. There seemed to be a veil covering her body.
Huo Yuhao replied, “I can move freely. Do you still think there’s anything wrong with my body?”
