Douluo Continent: My Days in the Tang Sect.

Chapter 553 After You Have a Super Bodyguard

Chapter 553 After You Have a Super Bodyguard

After finishing his chat with Bei Bei, Huo Yuhao acted as if nothing had happened, discussing the design of the next soul tool for the Tang Sect with Ye Nanxiao, cooking a late-night snack, sending Wang Dong'er back, and cleaning the underground laboratory.

Huo Yuhao took a broom and swept the floor of the underground laboratory again and again, once, twice.

His mind was no longer on cleaning; it was filled with his conversation with Beibei.

He wanted to help Ye Nanxiao, and not just with matters related to soul tools.

"So, Ni Jiang did so many things quietly, and I didn't notice a thing." Huo Yuhao's eyes were glazed over, and his hands moved like a machine.

The floor was exceptionally clean, without a trace of dust, and even metal shavings had been removed.

"I don't know how to seek cooperation and develop relationships with the outside world. I only have a superficial understanding of negotiations between interests. I'm not qualified to use force to intimidate wolves and protect the Tang Clan. My cultivation level is still too backward. I'm not as good as Ni Jiang in rushing to manufacture soul tools. So how can I help Ni Jiang?" Huo Yuhao was filled with confusion and guilt at this moment.

He had heard Ye Nanxiao say something like, "Everyone wears a mask in life to hide and protect their true self. But if you wear the mask for too long, it becomes part of your face, and your true self will be eroded, eventually taking on the shape of the mask."

Behind Ye Nanxiao's salted fish-like smile, what kind of gritted teeth, blood, tears, and sweat are hidden?

Huo Yuhao suddenly stopped what he was doing and stood there blankly.

His desire for power suddenly became incredibly fervent.

He knew that meeting Ye Nanxiao was an incredibly lucky thing, that he had another family member who cared about him, accompanied him as he grew up, and sheltered him from the storms of life.

However, he also wanted to protect Ye Nanxiao from the storm.

He has come a long way from having innate level one soul power and an eye-type martial soul that was not favored by the world. He knows perfectly well who helped him and who mocked him behind his back.

Huo Yuhao, who was introverted and had low self-esteem since childhood, only began to realize the beauty of the world after meeting Ye Nanxiao.

"If Muddy hadn't taken me in and trained me, I might have died in that little forest where I first encountered the Wind Baboon."

Huo Yuhao put the broom back in its original place, sat down at the experimental table where Ye Nanxiao often sat, and poured out a large number of research blueprints and semi-finished core magic arrays from his belt.

"This world is a dog-eat-dog world. Muddy is right. Only the strong are entitled to enjoy rights, so only the strong can enjoy sleeping. Weaklings like me don't deserve it!"

"I yearn to become stronger!!!"

A flame ignited in Huo Yuhao's heart, and the intense thought even caused the Eye of Destiny on his forehead to open slightly, spontaneously absorbing the ethereal power of destiny between heaven and earth.

This phenomenon was naturally discovered by Tang Yin, who had been secretly observing Huo Yuhao.

Through the power of destiny entwined around Huo Yuhao, Tang Yin vaguely sensed Huo Yuhao's desire to become stronger, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

"That's right, that's the true ambition of the chosen one!"

"Now that your ambition has returned, let me give you a hand!"

Tang Yin plucked a strand of hair, revealing the Trident of the Sea God. He tied the strand of hair and placed it on the trident. A wave of water rippled out from the trident, enveloping the strand of hair, and transformed into a shooting star, heading straight for the mortal realm.

As Ye Nanxiao walked onto the balcony with his thermos in hand, contemplating his "post-coital slumber," he suddenly caught a glimpse of a shooting star with a golden tail.

"Wow, a shooting star! Let me make a wish first. May that old scoundrel Yuan Haisan be caught red-handed soon and blasted away by the God of Destruction!" Ye Nanxiao solemnly clasped his hands together and sincerely made a wish.

"I hope the God of Destruction will bless my little wish and make it come true!"

Ye Nanxiao wasn't stupid. If he wanted to wish for Yuan Haisan to have bad luck, then of course he would make the wish to someone who disliked Yuan Haisan!

As Ye Nanxiao closed his eyes to make a wish, the shooting star made a turn in the sky and headed straight for Shrek Academy.

When the meteor was still 500 meters away from Shrek Academy, it suddenly disappeared, its tail flame and firelight vanishing completely.

In the end, the meteor landed on the golden tree on Poseidon Island without causing any disturbance, and quietly merged into the golden tree.

Only Ye Nanxiao, who possessed the Frozen Flower, witnessed the fall of this "meteor".

Elder Mu, who lived inside the Golden Tree, was completely unaware of anything, even though his senses were constantly surrounding Shrek Academy.

Ye Nanxiao was unaware that he was the only one who could see the "shooting star" last night, and he continued to make good use of his time.

After completing the first version of the "Gravity Black Hole" and configuring it for Jiang Nannan, Ye Nanxiao immediately summoned Little Ye No. 4. The two of them, along with all the disciples of the inner hall, worked like an assembly line, updating a small version of the Shrek Supervision Group's equipment within a day.

When Ma Xiaotao received the first-generation Soul Guidance Linkage Armor tailored for her by Ye Nanxiao, this first-generation battle armor that appeared across several centuries, Ye Nanxiao was so excited that he almost became infatuated with her.

After organizing his supplies and weapons, Ye Nanxiao bid farewell to everyone and boarded the Xuanlao roller coaster.

However, Master Xuan's driving skills have not improved at all over the years.

It's still that same high-flying, unbelted, pendulum-like flight that soars into the sky.

Drivers never truly understand the feelings of passengers.

After Xuan Lao flew at high speed for two full hours, Ye Nanxiao finally got his break.

"Hey! Look at you! I've been training you for so long, how come you haven't made any progress at all?" Elder Xuan said with a look of disdain.

Ye Nanxiao, bent over and dry heaving, could only raise the "international friendly exchange gesture" to Elder Xuan.

"Elder Xuan, let's fly for another hour or so, and then I'll open a spatial passage to send us into the Sun Moon Empire. I'll test whether my spatial abilities can transport a Super Douluo," Ye Nanxiao said after thinking for a moment.

Upon hearing this, Elder Xuan pondered for a few seconds and then nodded. "Alright, that'll save you from vomiting in the air and affecting the academy's image."

Ye Nanxiao: ".#@&*****"

After resting for a while, Ye Nanxiao took out a map and compared the locations with Elder Xuan. They found that they were not far from Zhengtian City, and Zhengtian Academy was located in Zhengtian City.

"How about we go over and rest for a bit? I haven't tried Zhengtian City's five-color roasted pork yet." Ye Nanxiao rubbed his stomach. He didn't want to eat dry food or touch his lunchbox; he was just craving it.

Upon hearing that there was something delicious to eat, Elder Xuan immediately nodded, grabbed Ye Nanxiao by the back of his collar, and strode over dozens of miles towards Zhengtian City.

Ye Nanxiao conjured more than a dozen ice mirrors, enveloping Elder Xuan and himself, and walked directly inside right under the guards' noses.

Elder Xuan put Ye Nanxiao down, looked at the ice mirrors flying around, nodded slightly and said, "Your technique is not bad, kid. Even if you get into trouble, you can still buy time to escape."

"It's rare for you to praise me, but my little trick can only fool the eyes." Ye Nanxiao reached out and wiped his face, instantly changing to an ordinary appearance.

Elder Xuan simply reached out and combed down the messy hair that had blown behind his head, covering his eyes, and almost effortlessly transformed into a disheveled old man.

The latest novel is first published here!

Ye Nanxiao removed his ice goggles and casually smeared some soot from a roadside food stall onto his clothes to make them look a bit dirty and messy.

Instead, Elder Xuan set his sights on the rice balls in the pot, patted Ye Nanxiao on the shoulder, and gave him a meaningful look.

Ye Nanxiao: "."

When you go out with a level 98 super bodyguard, you'll find that this bodyguard's salary doesn't include the special rate for acquaintances.

Ye Nanxiao clutched his beloved little wallet, his eyes brimming with tears.

Why? He came out to discuss business, so why did it turn out like this?

Old Master Xuan pulled out a chicken leg bone from somewhere, broke off one end, pinched out the pointed end, and used it as a toothpick.

"The food in Zhengtian City is too bland, and there aren't many varieties. I really don't know what those scoundrels at Zhengtian Academy were thinking, opening a branch in Zhengtian City. It makes eating here so much less enjoyable," Elder Xuan commented sharply.

Ye Nanxiao immediately rolled his eyes at Elder Xuan. Shrek Academy has stood at the pinnacle of the continent for so many years.

All chefs must pass an examination conducted by an external institution before they can be appointed!

"You old geezer! What nonsense are you spouting? Are you tired of living? Huh?"

Suddenly, a man stood up next to Ye Nanxiao and pointed at Elder Xuan, cursing him.

"Oh?" Elder Xuan slowly turned his head. For so many years, apart from that old codger who couldn't be poisoned to death, no one had ever dared to curse him like that.

Ye Nanxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and tiny ice needles condensed between them. The person in front of him had his hair combed to the side, and the left chest of his clothes bore the insignia of Zhengtian Academy, indicating that he was a student of Zhengtian Academy.

"You slovenly old man, do you know how prestigious the name of Zhengtian Academy is? Huh?" the Zhengtian student shouted, and several of his companions behind him also stood up, coldly looking at Elder Xuan and Ye Nanxiao.

"Zhengtian, I've never heard of it. I've only heard of Shrek Academy. Tell me, is Zhengtian Academy more famous than Shrek Academy?" Ye Nanxiao took two steps forward with a forced smile and stood in front of the student with his hair combed to the side.

"You bastard!"

Zhengtian Academy is certainly no match for Shrek Academy; this is a fact acknowledged throughout the entire continent.

Several students from Zhengtian Academy immediately surrounded Ye Nanxiao, eager to fight.

Ye Nanxiao's fingertips were poised to strike, and he was just waiting for the person in front of him to punch him.

It's reasonable to fight back if you're hit, right?

There are too many people on the other side? I have bodyguards with me!

The student with his hair combed to the side glared fiercely at Ye Nanxiao. He waved his fist, but he was still cautious, sensing Ye Nanxiao's cultivation level. He found that he couldn't perceive it, so he made a gesture behind his back with his left hand.

The companions immediately understood and subtly began to encircle them.

Ye Nanxiao reached out and caught the fist with its hair combed to the side. With a little force, he made the person groan in pain.

Elder Xuan sipped his wine, watching Ye Nanxiao's performance, and probed his senses toward the nearby Zhengtian Academy.

"If you beat the little one, the old one will come"—this saying is not just an empty phrase.

Just as Elder Xuan had predicted, one of the people in front of them had already run back to Zhengtian Academy to move people.

Ye Nanxiao gave Elder Xuan a wink, the meaning being, "Bodyguards, bodyguards, get to work!"
