Chapter 102: Chasing with a Frozen Fish, My Name is Yuhao, Remember It!

"Alright, these things are minor issues. As long as you're okay, I'm relieved," Du Busi said. "However, what do you plan to do with this bunch of trash?"

The so-called trash referred to Zhou Yi, who had passed out, and the assassins from the White Tiger Duke's mansion, who were left barely alive by Yu Tao.

Huo Yuhao chuckled, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"I have an idea, a plan that kills two birds with one stone."

...

"A group of useless people, taking so long to kill just one Spirit Grandmaster?"

At the entrance of Shrek Academy, Dai Huabin was pretending to chat with his classmates while anxiously waiting for news from the assassins sent by his mansion.

If Huo Yuhao was assassinated, Dai Huabin, who had conflicts with him, would naturally be highly suspicious. Therefore, he made sure to appear among his classmates to have a perfect alibi, proving he had nothing to do with Huo Yuhao's death.

"Dai Huabin, someone is looking for you at the academy gate!"

Suddenly, a classmate walked over and informed Dai Huabin.

Hearing this, Dai Huabin felt a surge of joy. He bid farewell to his classmates and hurriedly walked towards the gate of Shrek Academy.

It was still daytime, and there were no vendors at the east gate, only a few academy guards responsible for reception.

Dai Huabin walked out of the east gate and glanced around, immediately spotting a Soul Emperor from the White Tiger Duke's mansion standing under an inconspicuous tree.

After a couple of light coughs, Dai Huabin walked over to the tree and lowered his voice to ask, "Is it done?"

"It's done!" The Soul Emperor nodded. "Second Young Master, Huo Yuhao is dead, but we found a high-grade soul bone on his body."

"High-grade soul bone?" Dai Huabin's eyes flashed with shock.

However, recalling Huo Yuhao's previous physical performance, which was not inferior to his own as a Spirit Elder, he immediately understood everything.

"So, his strong physique was due to absorbing a soul bone? Hmph, lucky bastard, but that soul bone is mine now!"

The Soul Emperor laughed, "Second Young Master, this boy's torso soul bone is a rare treasure. You should come with me to see it and absorb it immediately to avoid any long nights fraught with dreams."

Driven by greed, Dai Huabin let down his guard completely and followed the Soul Emperor into the distance.

However, he didn't notice that when the Soul Emperor turned around, his eyes were flickering with colorful light.

"Will you talk now?"

"Still not talking, huh? Then don't blame me for being rude!"

*Crack.*

"Indeed, as expected of people from the White Tiger Duke's mansion. Despite breaking your hand, you still endure without saying a word. Truly warriors of the battlefield!"

In a dark room, a dim light illuminated Yu Tao's face, making him look as sinister as a devil. The six assassins from the White Tiger Duke's mansion were now stripped of their soul power and bound tightly with wire-wrapped ropes, undergoing Yu Tao's interrogation.

The room was barely lit, and the six men were tied in different positions, unable to see each other. But every so often, they heard the crisp sound of bones breaking, a sound they were familiar with—the sound of limbs being snapped by immense force—accompanied by a muffled scream.

The assassins, whose limbs were broken, felt aggrieved to the point of tears.

Damn it, you want us to talk, but you have to ask something first! Without asking, how are we supposed to know what to say?

The dark environment, the sound of bones breaking, the muffled screams, all combined to create an extremely oppressive atmosphere in the room. Under such pressure, their mental defenses were continuously collapsing.

*Knock, knock, knock!*

Suddenly, the door to the small dark room was gently knocked. Yu Tao abandoned his torture, walked over, and opened the door, only to see Dai Huabin and the Soul Emperor standing outside.

"Huh? Why did you bring me here? What is this place?" Dai Huabin became alert upon seeing the dark room and Yu Tao, whose body emanated strong soul power.

Unfortunately, he realized it too late.

"Dai Huabin, I told you you're a brainless idiot, and you didn't believe me. Open your little cat eyes and see who I really am!"

The Soul Emperor chuckled, and light waves rippled around his body. As the light gradually dissipated, it revealed the form of Huo Yuhao.

At this moment, a white and black soul ring surrounded his body, with the pitch-black second soul ring emitting a faint glow.

Ten-thousand-year soul skill, Simulation!

"Huo Yuhao, this is impossible. You should be dead—" Dai Huabin stammered in disbelief.

The thrill of killing Huo Yuhao and the excitement of obtaining a high-grade soul bone were shattered in an instant. Dai Huabin felt a chill run down his spine, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.

"Second Young Master, run!"

A deep roar came from the dark room. The Soul Emperor from the White Tiger Duke's mansion, seeing Dai Huabin still standing there in a daze, hurriedly shouted to warn him.

"Roar!"

"White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"

Dai Huabin snapped back to reality and immediately activated his third soul skill, trying to escape.

Although his cultivation level was close to the Soul Ancestor rank, he was still too slow. Huo Yuhao casually pulled out a one-meter-long frozen fish from somewhere and leisurely chased after Dai Huabin.

"Huo Yuhao, I'm the heir to the White Tiger Duke's title, the future White Tiger Duke. If you kill me, you won't be able to bear the consequences!" Dai Huabin shouted as he ran.

"White Tiger Duke? Heh, I aim to kill the White Tiger Duke! First you, then that old dog Dai Hao!" Huo Yuhao sneered.

Dai Huabin's face stiffened, and his steps faltered. He didn't expect Huo Yuhao to be utterly unafraid of the White Tiger Duke's mansion and even seemed to harbor a deep grudge against it.

"Who are you really?" Dai Huabin asked unwillingly. "Since the freshman assessment, you've been targeting me. Who are you, and what grudge do you have against the White Tiger Duke's mansion?"

"Dai Huabin, your memory is indeed poor. Perhaps you've forgotten about a boy who lived in the White Tiger Duke's mansion. Because your shoes stepped on a muddy piece of clothing, you beat his mother to death!" Huo Yuhao's voice was cold and filled with hatred.

"You ask who I am? Hahaha, I am your brother, but I do not bear the surname Dai. My name is Huo Yuhao! You ask why I'm against you, isn't the hatred of a murdered mother enough of a reason?"

"Rest assured, you won't die this time. But you'll endure a fate worse than death. One day, I will turn the entire White Tiger Duke's mansion into ruins!"

As light flashed, the cold frozen fish struck Dai Huabin's back of the head hard.

Dai Huabin's face was filled with terror. He opened his mouth to say something but couldn't utter a word.

Finally, his body swayed twice, then collapsed to the ground, completely unconscious.
