Chapter 27 was a dud.
---
With three bumps on his head, Huo Yuhao led the three girls to the front desk to pay the rent.
It was clear that the landlords in Shrek City were the type who wouldn't get up early without a profit to be made. The rent had to be paid for a full month at once, a total of thirty gold soul coins. This price would be considered explosive even in the outside world.
No matter where Ning Tian and the other two girls went, they were an extremely eye-catching presence. Although the three of them were still young, they had the makings of top-tier beauties. This was especially true for the fiery-tempered Wu Feng, whose figure had already begun to blossom. From the moment Huo Yuhao led them to the payment counter in the first-floor lobby, the gazes of the other people never left the three girls.
The three girls each had their own distinct features. Wu Feng had the best figure among them; her pink, form-fitting leather suit outlined her fine physique, making it impossible for one to look away. Ning Tian was the most heroic-looking of the three; as the young sect master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, great importance had been placed on the cultivation of her temperament and demeanor since she was young, and her entire being exuded a noble and cool aura. Nanmen Yun'er, compared to the other two, was delicate and charming in every frown and smile, her dark green beautiful eyes filled with gentleness, perfectly interpreting the trait that girls are made of water.
The receptionist at the lobby counter had a strange expression. Huo Yuhao had booked the last double suite with him, leading the three girls, and not a single one of the stunningly beautiful girls had protested. This gave him endless room for imagination.
The young people these days...
Seeing Huo Yuhao walk towards the three girls after booking the suite, countless single men in the hall couldn't help but howl internally. On what basis could a guy like that possess three such beauties?
Under the fiery gazes of everyone in the lobby, the three girls' faces flushed red, and they quickly followed him. As for Huo Yuhao, he rather enjoyed this kind of attention. In the lawless Holy Ghost Cult, he had dared to get handsy with Zhongli Yu in front of countless young talents. What more did he have to fear from you lot, a group of sour scholars who only dared to think but not to act?
There weren't that many brainless people in this world. Although Huo Yuhao looked young, those with discerning eyes could sense a hidden, beast-like aura on him. If they were to fall out with him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The suite was not large, with two beds. It was naturally impossible for three girls to squeeze onto one bed. Ning Tian and the other two immediately exchanged glances, their faces red. It was still up to Ning Tian to step forward and say, "Huo Yuhao, I'll find you a blanket. You can sleep on the floor."
Huo Yuhao wasn't about to spoil her. He swept a disdainful gaze over Ning Tian's flat-as-a-plain chest. "Bean sprouts, take it or leave it. I'm the one who paid the rent for this place."
"You..." Wu Feng was about to flare up but was quickly pulled back by Nanmen Yun'er.
"You guys find someone to sleep on the floor. It's cleaner than the academy dorms anyway. Also, don't lean on my bed. I'm a mysophobe," Huo Yuhao said, waving his hand dismissively, which immediately gave the three girls the urge to turn around and go back to the academy.
With their status, how could they possibly sleep on the floor? Even with Ning Tian's upbringing, she couldn't hold it in any longer. "Huo Yuhao, are you a man?"
"No, I'm not a man. I'm just a boy. You'd better not have any improper thoughts about me," Huo Yuhao's retort made Ning Tian's blood pressure instantly skyrocket. He plopped down on the bed by the window.
"Yuhao, I'm impressed. This is called playing hard to get, right?" the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's voice sounded in Huo Yuhao's mind at the right time.
Bibi Dong didn't speak. She was the only one in his spiritual sea who was directly connected to his thoughts. After spending a year together, she actually understood Huo Yuhao very well.
To put it simply, Huo Yuhao was the type who acted bold and lecherous on a daily basis, and his behavior was also quite open, but when it came to a serious moment, his heart would refuse. Otherwise, how could Zhongli Yu, who had been internally designated by the Holy Ghost Cult as his wife, still be a virgin?
Although these three girls had the makings of beauties, they were still a far cry from Zhongli Yu's natural charm.
And the cause of Huo Yuhao's current situation was naturally the self-blame and guilt from his previous life for his beloved. The girl who had suffered from cyberbullying had leaped from a tall building right in front of him. Huo Yuhao, who hadn't been able to grab anything, at that moment, his heart had been completely sealed.
In the end, he silently walked down a path of no return.
No matter which world, beasts like Qian Xunji existed.
It was already very late. Through the window, one could see the lively night view of Shrek City. It was impossible to rush back to Shrek Academy at this time. Ning Tian and the other two girls could only swallow their anger.
As Huo Yuhao had said, he really was a mysophobe. After going to the bathroom to wash up, he even disinfected his bed with soul power in front of the three girls, which made Ning Tian at one point think that her own dormitory in the sect was not as clean as his bed.
A girl's bath time is never short. When each of them went into the bathroom, the other two had to constantly be on guard against Huo Yuhao to prevent him from accidentally barging in.
It turned out the three girls had overthought things. After Huo Yuhao had sat cross-legged on his bed cultivating for more than an hour, he lay down and fell asleep, as if the three of them had no attraction to him at all.
What a joke. Huo Yuhao had lived two lives, and his soul was that of an adult. How could he be interested in eleven or twelve-year-old little girls? He wasn't like the great Tang God-King, whose wife-nurturing plan had to start from when she was a child.
"What do we do?" Ning Tian and the other two girls soon tragically discovered that one bed was not enough for three girls. Normally, if they slept on their sides, it might be barely enough, but Wu Feng was clearly not within the scope of this normalcy.
If she rolled over in her sleep, the people on either side might fall off.
"You guys sleep. I'm not sleeping anymore. I'll get a clean dormitory sorted out at the academy tomorrow!" Wu Feng was so angry she was about to cry. She stood up, thinking how unmanly Huo Yuhao was. He could sleep in the same room with three such beauties, yet he wasn't even willing to lie on the floor.
Putting herself in his shoes, she wouldn't be willing to sleep on the floor either.
Wu Feng shot a vicious glare at Huo Yuhao's bed. Huo Yuhao's figure was slender and not large. Even if he slept in a star shape, there was more than enough room.
The group had been running around the city all day and were all exhausted. How could they still sit and cultivate? Looking at the very comfortably sleeping Huo Yuhao, an extremely crazy idea suddenly flooded Wu Feng's mind.
Wu Feng no longer cared about her image. In the shocked gazes of Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er, she directly lay down next to Huo Yuhao and pulled half of his blanket away.
"What are you doing?" Huo Yuhao was like a startled bird. He quickly hugged his arms and shifted his body towards the edge of the bed.
"I don't care anymore! I'm going to sleep!" Wu Feng viciously raised her sexy long leg and pressed down on Huo Yuhao's lower body, directly occupying half the bed.
"Don't! I'm a mysophobe! You smell like gunpowder, stay away from me!" Huo Yuhao immediately let out a miserable cry.
"I haven't even complained about you, you bean sprout!" As if in a fit of pique, Wu Feng gritted her teeth and raised her hand to press Huo Yuhao down on the bed.
"Indecent assault— Mmph..." Just as Huo Yuhao was about to shout, the exasperated Wu Feng lifted the blanket and pressed it over his head.
After doing all this, Wu Feng was panting. Then, as if thinking of something, she quickly turned her head and saw Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er, their jaws on the floor.
Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er could only silently give her a thumbs-up.
"Tch, what's the big deal? He's just a bean sprout..." Wu Feng said stubbornly, her face red as she complained.
The three of them looked at each other for a long time. Seeing no struggle from Huo Yuhao, Wu Feng was afraid he might suffocate and quickly lifted the blanket.
"Hooo..."
Huo Yuhao was actually asleep. If you can't resist, then enjoy it. With Bibi Dong and Brother Tianmeng in his spiritual sea, he wasn't afraid of what Wu Feng and the other two might do to him.
Brother Tianmeng's heart was instantly filled with pain. At your age, at your age, how can you sleep? How can you possibly be asleep?
The washed Huo Yuhao had a very pleasant smell, mixed with the fragrance of his bath products, which made Wu Feng, who was lying next to him, unable to help but move closer.
Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er were also exhausted and successively entered a light sleep. Since Wu Feng didn't mind, then so be it!
Just as Wu Feng was also planning to sleep like this, a faint suction force suddenly came from Huo Yuhao's body, instantly waking up Wu Feng, who was right next to him.
"What is this?" Ning Tian and Nanmen Yun'er, who were in a light sleep, also woke up one after another. They could feel that endless natural energy of heaven and earth was gathering towards Huo Yuhao's forehead. Although the suction was small, as soul masters, they were extremely sensitive to this kind of energy.
"Sister Feng, maintain a semi-sleep cultivation state," Ning Tian made a decisive decision. The mysterious Huo Yuhao undoubtedly possessed some special constitution that could spontaneously attract the natural energy of heaven and earth. And for them, who were right next to him, it was undoubtedly a great opportunity.
To be washed by such pure life energy was something Ning Tian didn't even dare to dream of.
Wu Feng, lying next to Huo Yuhao, naturally received the greatest benefit. The pure natural energy flowed through her delicate body, making her feel much lighter. At this moment, she even gave up her reserve, reached out and wrapped her arms around Huo Yuhao's neck, rested her face on his shoulder, and fell into a deep sleep.
And the originator of all this, Bibi Dong, was admiring a lustrous white soul ring with faint golden patterns in the spiritual sea with satisfaction. Yes, Huo Yuhao's third soul ring was finally complete.
Seeing the auntie-like smile on the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's face, Bibi Dong couldn't help but be curious. What happened?
⊙(◇)?
"What a sin!" the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm twisted its plump body fiercely.
