Watching Huo Yuhao, Meng Hongchen, Juzi (Orange), and Keke depart together, the girls of Class One had various expressions on their faces, each lost in their own thoughts.
After all, Huo Yuhao had mentioned in his Diary that he would take a break today. Starting tomorrow, he would continue to study soul engineering with Xiao Hongchen in the lab.
If they missed this opportunity today, it would be even harder to get Huo Yuhao to mention their names in his Diary more than ten times!
Just as they were about to act, Gu Yuena surveyed them and said calmly, "Have you forgotten what I said? I advise you all to calm down. Don't let the reward of a single day cloud your judgment, leading you to lose the chance to get rewards altogether."
As Gu Yuena's words fell, the girls present looked at each other. Wang Dong'er nodded in agreement first.
"That's right. There's no need to focus solely on the reward of one day. Since Huo Yuhao isn't planning to leave the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Even in the Imperial Palace, she'd run rampant, and even set fire to the palace. Xu Tianzhen, upon hearing this, immediately pouted and mumbled.
"Sounds good, but Huo Yuhao mentioned your name in his Diary over ten times today. If no one else is mentioned more than ten times, then all the rewards today are yours."
Wang Dong'er glared at Xu Tianzhen and shouted.
"What are you saying? I'm not as shameless as you think!"
Ye Guyi exuded an aura of 'keep away,' and lightly stated the crux of the matter.
"Whether you think so or not is irrelevant. The important thing is that what Xu Tianzhen said is true. If Meng Hongchen and Juzi aren't mentioned in Huo Yuhao's Diary more than ten times, and neither are we, then all the rewards today are yours."
Wang Dong'er was furious, but couldn't find a suitable reason to refute them.
It wasn't her fault that her name was mentioned in Huo Yuhao's Diary ten times; she had only given a very brief self-introduction. And then Huo Yuhao acted so excited, could she be blamed for that?
Seeing that they were about to start infighting, Gu Yuena frowned slightly, her tone cold.
"Can't you understand what I'm saying? It's already suspicious enough that Juzi, that woman he just happened to meet, is going to stroll around Mingdu with Huo Yuhao. Are you trying to make things worse? Do you think Huo Yuhao won't figure it out? Have you forgotten how he deduced the problems in the God Realm based on just a few hidden clues?"
As Gu Yuena spoke, she deliberately released a trace of her aura, causing the other girls, except Di Qiu'er, to fall silent. They finally began to understand just how terrifying the Silver Dragon King, the Overlord of Soul Beasts, truly was!
Gu Yuena's gaze swept over them coldly, and she said, word by word,
"Are you calm now? If you are, go back and don't do anything unnecessary! Let's go, Qiu'er."
After speaking, Gu Yuena immediately walked away. After taking a couple of steps, she realized that Di Qiu'er hadn't followed. Looking at Di Qiu'er's conflicted expression, Gu Yuena glared at her impatiently.
"Aren't you coming?"
Di Qiu'er's face showed a struggle, but after sensing that Gu Yuena's gaze was becoming dangerous, she could only follow reluctantly. It wasn't until the two of them were far away that Di Qiu'er finally couldn't help but whisper,
"Sister, are we really not going to look for Huo Yuhao? I only need four more times to get the reward, and you only need three! Are we really just going to give up?"
After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, Gu Yuena not only had Di Qiu'er give herself a name but also instructed her not to continue calling her "Master." To avoid raising suspicion, calling her "Sister" would suffice.
Di Qiu'er naturally had no objections to this. When Gu Yuena was still in her Silver Dragon King form, she could address her as "Master" without issue. However, now that they had both taken human form, Di Qiu'er found it difficult to say.
Hearing Di Qiu'er's words, Gu Yuena's eyes flickered slightly, but she still shook her head firmly.
"It's just a single day's reward. Even if it's given to Wang Dong'er, what does it matter? Don't you have confidence that Huo Yuhao will mention your name in his Diary more than ten times in the future?"
Di Qiu'er let out a soft "eh," and weakly said. "I had that confidence before coming to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, but now... I'm not so confident."
Gu Yuena didn't understand at first, but then she realized that besides them, so many others had also approached Huo Yuhao. Meng Hongchen and Wang Dong'er's appearances were on par with Di Qiu'er's, which made Gu Yuena somewhat understand Di Qiu'er's current state of mind.
Regardless, in Gu Yuena's heart, Di Qiu'er was still different from the other women, so she immediately comforted her.
"Don't worry, we have plenty of time. There's no need to rush."
Di Qiu'er, though filled with resentment, could only sigh in the end. For the sake of the long term, she would have to follow Gu Yuena's instructions.
But just then, Di Qiu'er seemed to suddenly remember something, and looked at Gu Yuena with a wary expression, asking, "Sister, we don't have to look for Huo Yuhao, but what if Wang Dong'er and the others go looking for him?"
Gu Yuena frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, then shook her head gently. "They shouldn't be that foolish. Besides, my warning can't be completely ineffective."
"Dong'er, what should I do?"
Xiao Xiao's face crumpled, and she looked at Wang Dong'er beside her for help, unsure of what to do.
Wang Dong'er was also a bit perplexed. Gu Yuena's meaning was already very clear: if anyone caused her to lose the chance to receive rewards from the Diary's copy in the future, the Silver Dragon King would definitely not let them off easily.
Since Xiao Xiao and she were already the best of friends, she naturally didn't want Xiao Xiao to miss out. Even if they didn't get any rewards, gaining a level in Soul Power was still beneficial.
Thinking of this, Wang Dong'er gritted her teeth and said, "It's fine! Since Gu Yuena and Di Qiu'er aren't going to look for Huo Yuhao, if it's just the two of us, as long as we don't act strangely, Huo Yuhao shouldn't notice anything."
Xiao Xiao thought for a moment and felt that Wang Dong'er made a lot of sense. Anyway, the others weren't planning to look for Huo Yuhao, so they shouldn't have any major problems if they went.
However, besides Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao, Xu Tianzhen and Ye Guyi were thinking the same thing.
[Picture Picture Picture, Woohoo, it seems like it's not bad to come out for a stroll every now and then, especially when I can travel with the two big beauties, Senior Meng Hongchen and Senior Juzi, which makes me even happier. As for Keke? Uh, just tagging along.]
While Huo Yuhao was accompanying the three of them, he didn't forget to keep writing in his Diary, especially uploading the iconic buildings to the Diary, so that people could immediately see where he was.
Huo Yuhao was now very sure that Meng Hongchen, Gu Yuena, Wang Dong'er, Di Qiu'er, and Juzi could see his Diary, but whether another guess was accurate would depend on whether anyone would take the bait this time.
As Huo Yuhao, Meng Hongchen, Juzi, and Keke were chatting and laughing on their way to the next location, Huo Yuhao, with the help of his Spiritual Eyes, could clearly see that not far ahead, standing there were the four charming girls: Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, Xu Tianzhen, and Ye Guyi!
At a glance, the four of them were clearly in a state of confrontation.
Huo Yuhao's lips curled into a slight smile, his eyes filled with amusement. This time, he didn't write his thoughts in the Diary in his mind, but instead sighed inwardly.
'Excellent! From this moment on, the roles of hunter and prey are about to be reversed! Just you wait and see how easily I'll handle you all from now on!'
I recommend a book by a friend, a chat group type. If you're interested, you can check it out.
