Chapter 455: Narrow Minded Dai Huabin·One
The seemingly obedient little loli, Xiao Xiao, was an active type who would take the initiative as soon as she thought of something. The next day, she couldn't wait to find Ye Wen.
Ye Wen was silent for a long while when it came to this matter.
It was doable, but it would be difficult.
Xiao Xiao's parents were both Title Douluos. Her father, in particular, had even burned his life force to forcibly break through to level 99 during the battle against Emperor Tian. Her mother, on the other hand, was an auxiliary type Title Douluo. Sadly, she perished in that battle, killed by a targeted assault from soul beasts.
Spirit type soul beasts were rare, so there was a high probability that their souls still existed after death. As for their completeness, that was another matter.
Additionally, Ye Wen couldn't help but sigh at Tang San's creation of trouble.
If this was the Douluo Continent from ten thousand years ago, it would have been easier. But now, with the rampant presence of evil soul masters, some of whom were especially skilled at enslaving souls, Ye Wen couldn't help but wonder if Xiao Xiao's parents had fallen victim to this cruel fate.
Looking at Xiao Xiao's tearful eyes, Ye Wen's heart softened.
"Alright, I'll go to the battlefield and see if I can find your parents' souls. But let me warn you, Xiao Xiao, time has passed for too long. Even a Title Douluo's soul can't be preserved for long. They may have already dissipated, or perhaps they've been reincarnated."
Although Xiao Xiao's hope was slim, she still thanked Ye Wen repeatedly, even giving him a tight hug in her gratitude.
"Um… why don't I do it instead?"
A cheerful voice came from the side It was Alex, speaking in his boyish tone.
Ye Wen had not only revived Alex physically, but thanks to the omnipotent divine power, Alex's divine consciousness had also been mostly restored. This allowed Alex to recall past memories and knowledge.
Upon hearing this, Ye Wen suddenly realized what he had forgotten. Although he wasn't proficient in matters of the soul, Alex, despite not having reached full godhood, was quite skilled in this area.
"How silly of me! Xiao Xiao, Alex is actually much more suited to help you with this."
Xiao Xiao immediately turned her gaze to Alex, her big, watery eyes fixed on him. As an older man, Alex certainly couldn't resist such a cute attack from a little girl.
With a helpless smile, Alex spoke to Xiao Xiao, "Give me a drop of your blood."
Xiao Xiao didn't hesitate. She immediately pricked her finger and offered the blood to Alex.
Alex's mysterious and noble gray eyes narrowed slightly, and a massive magic formation began to unfold beneath their feet.
Ye Wen, watching from the side, clicked his tongue in admiration.
As expected of someone known as the Catastrophe of the Undead, the symbols in this magic formation were so complex that even Ye Wen couldn't immediately decipher them.
Soon, the blood from Xiao Xiao floated into the air, swirling and forming a blood colored crystal. Inside the crystal, a faint golden light appeared, pointing off into the distance.
As the crystal slowly descended, the magic formation vanished. Alex, looking somewhat drained, sat back down in his chair and spoke weakly to Ye Wen.
"From here on, it will be up to you, my lord. The light in the crystal will guide you to the souls of Xiao Xiao's deceased loved ones, based on her soul's aura."
Ye Wen nodded and took the crystal. He then shot into the sky, much to Xiao Xiao's hopeful gaze.
Watching Ye Wen leave, Xiao Xiao turned her attention to Alex, who was now in a weakened state due to overuse of his power. Her eyes began to cloud with unknown emotions.
Thanks to Ye Wen's guidance, Huo Yu´er hadn't encountered the same string of events as in the original story. Now, Huo Yu´er only needed to focus on cultivation to reach her peak.
But there would always be those who couldn't bear to see Huo Yu´er's well being. When Huo Yu´er saw Dai Huabin blocking her path back to the dormitory, a strong feeling of disdain flashed in her eyes.
When a person gains enough power, the filters for previously noble and strong figures disappear. To Huo Yu´er, Dai Huabin was no longer the proud young master of the past but just a powerless, furious clown.
"What do you want?" Huo Yu´er said coldly.
Dai Huabin, who had originally come with a confrontational attitude, stiffened immediately. After nearly a year of learning, Huo Yu´er had built up quite a reputation in class. Ordinary students didn't dare to speak to her.
But Dai Huabin quickly adjusted his mindset. After all, he had been looking for a chance to provoke her. He was the second son of the White Tiger Duke's family did he have no pride?
Dai Huabin stared directly into Huo Yu´er's eyes and said sternly, "Huo Yu´er, I challenge you again. This time, I'm going to take the class president position from you."
Huo Yu´er simply replied with two words.
"Boring."
With that, she brushed past Dai Huabin, leaving those words behind.
"The class president isn't me. Go find Tang Wulin, I don't have time to play house with you."
"You!" Dai Huabin, enraged, wanted to chase after her. However, he knew he couldn't start a fight here, as it would violate Shrek Academy's rules and lead to expulsion.
At that moment, a strong hand gripped his shoulder.
It was Tang Wulin, who looked at Dai Huabin with righteous determination and said, "Dai Huabin, please don't disturb Yu´er's cultivation. If you really want the position, I'll give it to you."
Tang Wulin, too, was regretting his decision. The class president position should have naturally gone to Huo Yu´er, as she was the strongest in class. But she had refused it, saying she didn't want to deal with the extra responsibilities and preferred focusing on cultivation.
As a result, because Huo Yu´er's team was the strongest, the position automatically fell to Tang Wulin.
At first, Tang Wulin, who had a strong sense of male pride, was happy to accept. He thought it would be a great opportunity to show off his abilities.
As for the outcome... well, it could only be summed up as a series of annoying troubles.
Now, Tang Wulin sincerely hoped Dai Huabin would just accept the position.
But since Tang Wulin revealed his martial soul, the Haotian Hammer, Dai Huabin began to harbor deep resentment toward him.
Although the Haotian Sect was reclusive, the terrifying background of a sect that had ten Title Douluos a thousand years ago still sent ripples through the entire Douluo Continent.
Now, in this era, Title Douluos were increasing exponentially, but the White Tiger Dai family had already fallen into decline.
Furthermore, with Tang Wulin's dual martial souls and his genius status, Dai Huabin dared not offend him.
But Dai Huabin had always been suppressed by his older brother, and he wanted to prove himself.
Since he dared not touch Tang Wulin, he had to settle for second best and focus his attention on defeating Huo Yu´er. Though she had her own sect, it wasn't well known, which is why Dai Huabin was so brazen.
In the end, Dai Huabin's expression shifted between dark and light, and he could only glare at Tang Wulin in frustration.
"No need," Dai Huabin grumbled before leaving, defeated.
