Chapter 74 Ice and Fire Dragon King
In an open space in front of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang symbol, Huo Yuhao was busy turning the grilled fish in his hands, his movements skillful and focused.
In front of Huo Yuhao, Dugu Bo lay relaxed on a chair, enjoying this rare moment of peace. His eyes were half-closed, occasionally glancing at Huo Yuhao with a look of admiration and satisfaction. Dugu Yan, her cheeks flushed, stood beside Huo Yuhao, her eyes shy as she secretly observed his every move. Her gaze mirrored Dugu Bo's; the two were truly grandfather and granddaughter.
On the open ground beneath their feet, a makeshift garbage dump had piled up with the bones of at least a dozen fish. Each of these fish bones had been gnawed clean, and even a dog would probably grumble and walk away if it came along.
And an hour ago...
At that time, after Dugu Bo became angry, Huo Yuhao, in order to protect himself, had no choice but to humiliatingly offer to grill fish for Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan. From that moment on, Huo Yuhao became a ruthless fish-grilling machine. His hands moved rapidly, his grilling movements so skillful they were almost dazzling, as if he were wielding a phantom. He kept grilling, while Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan ate like gluttons, unable to stop, which nearly exhausted Huo Yuhao.
After another hour of relentless effort, Huo Yuhao finally managed to feed the two gluttons. Seeing Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan lying contentedly in their chairs, Huo Yuhao almost collapsed to the ground. He inwardly sighed, thinking how utterly ruthless these two were; he had nearly broken down.
Nevertheless, seeing the satisfied expressions on Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan's faces, Huo Yuhao felt a surge of satisfaction. After all, for a chef, diners diligently eating is the greatest recognition of their culinary skills.
"I'm telling you, Yuhao, you're not getting any younger. In our day, seven-year-olds were almost getting married. I'm getting a little anxious that you're still single. I'll take charge and arrange a marriage for you and Yanyan," Dugu Bo said earnestly, a hint of elder's concern in his eyes.
Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Dugu Yan blushed and lowered her head, feeling both shy and expectant.
Huo Yuhao sneered, "Heh, I think you just want me to cook for you every day." There was a hint of mockery in Huo Yuhao's tone.
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Dugu Bo flew into a rage: "What are you saying? How can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air? I, Dugu Bo, have lived a life of integrity and uprightness. How could I have such thoughts?"
Huo Yuhao chuckled: I don't believe you for a second. You old man are really wicked. You're practically trying to trick me right now.
However, Huo Yuhao did not expose the old man further, leaving him some face. He decided to leave things unsaid so that they could meet again in the future. Afterward, Huo Yuhao stood up and walked towards the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
Having just enhanced his mental strength with the "Looking Through Autumn Water Dew," Huo Yuhao now plans to use the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye to refine his body and create an indestructible Vajra Body.
Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan immediately followed closely behind, their eyes filled with curiosity. They were both curious about Huo Yuhao's upcoming cultivation practice and worried about his safety.
"Senior, if anything happens later, please take Yan Yan and leave immediately." Before entering the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Huo Yuhao turned to Dugu Bo and said seriously, his eyes revealing a hint of solemnity.
"What, kid? Could it be that there's still danger?" Dugu Bo frowned. Although he had confidence in Huo Yuhao's abilities, he had also witnessed the power of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye firsthand and naturally understood the risks involved.
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, a hint of gravity flickering in his eyes. He stepped into the mysterious and unpredictable Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire once more. Compared to his memories from his previous life, this time, deep within the Yin-Yang Well, Huo Yuhao clearly sensed two powerful divine auras. These two auras were completely different: one was like a frigid, bone-chilling cold that seemed to freeze everything in its path; the other was like a blazing sun, as if capable of incinerating the entire sky. Even more astonishing was the presence of a dense aura of the Dragon King within these two auras.
Huo Yuhao already had a vague answer in his heart. Within this Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, there must be the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King. It was the power of these two dragon kings that created this unique environment. Huo Yuhao couldn't help but wonder, could this be the place where the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings perished? If so, then were their remains slumbering beneath this land?
Huo Yuhao's original plan was to use the magical spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to forge and strengthen his body, but now, a bolder idea emerged in his mind. Why not try to directly absorb the energy of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings? If he succeeded, his own strength would reach an unprecedented level.
Once this thought took root in Huo Yuhao's mind, it spread like wildfire. He began to imagine how powerful he would become if he could truly fuse the powers of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings. How resilient would his body become? How would his soul be elevated? After all, these were two beings close to God-Kings.
Huo Yuhao's thoughts were like a surging river, unable to stop. Moreover, Huo Yuhao estimated that the Ice and Fire Dragon King might still have a soul bone left behind. Huo Yuhao's breathing gradually became rapid.
However, when Huo Yuhao stood before the bottomless spring, his heart was filled with turmoil. With his current strength, obtaining the power of the Ice and Fire Dragon King within was nothing but a pipe dream. Moreover, what worried him even more was that he still carried the aura of the God of Emotions. If the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings still retained their consciousness, they would very likely destroy him without mercy.
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao involuntarily turned his gaze to the Gu Yuena scale he wore on his chest, a glimmer of hope rising in his heart. Perhaps he could ask Gu Yuena for help, and to be honest, after not seeing her for several months, Huo Yuhao did miss her a little.
So, Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and carefully channeled his spiritual energy into the silver scale. Almost instantly, a spatial vortex suddenly formed in the air, emitting a terrifying energy fluctuation.
Not long after the spatial vortex appeared, a delicate, pink and white foot slowly stepped out of it, followed by an ivory-white, flawless calf, smooth and delicate thighs, and a slender waist that could be encircled with one hand. As the towering breasts and the charming face gradually came into view, Huo Yuhao's heart couldn't help but race.
The newcomer was none other than the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena.
