Chapter 40 Who named their child Rotten Salty Fish?
the next day.
Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast. Last night, Ma Xiaotao's "open confession" had spread throughout Shrek Academy... As a result, he was labeled a "gigolo" and "clingy to a rich woman," and the boys in his class looked at him with even more contempt...
Trying his best to ignore the menacing stares of those around him and pretending nothing had happened, Huo Yuhao walked into the teaching building with slightly stiff steps.
Huo Yuhao was surprised to encounter two unexpected people on the road.
A guy with oddly colored pinkish-blue hair and a guy with a black haircut resembling dog ears were blocking the stairwell, staring intently at Huo Yuhao. The guy with the dog ear haircut looked like he wanted to devour him.
Looking at Huo Yuhao, whose handsomeness was undeniable even in a regular school uniform, Wang Dong felt an even stronger possessiveness welling up inside her. She had to admit that she was now feeling a tiny bit of regret.
Unlike me, he's a genuinely handsome guy. It would be a pleasure to look at him every day in my dorm room...
It was definitely wrong of me to get into a conflict with someone in a moment of anger that day.
Huo Yuhao's expression was strange. It's one thing for girls to come to me, but why are boys coming too?
"Um..." Wang Dong stepped forward first, smoothing his hair behind his ear, his voice sounding a little nervous: "I'm sorry, Huo Yuhao, I was wrong that day in the dormitory. I shouldn't have said such... such annoying things. I apologize to you."
Huo Yuhao blinked twice. "You're Dong... what Dong again?"
Honestly, because he was only thinking about Electrolux's words telling him to stay away from this person, and also because he was still angry, he really forgot what the woman dressed as a man's name was...
Wang Dong's face stiffened. Wait, he didn't even remember my name?!
"You... I, my name is Wang Dong. Let's get to know each other formally. I'm a student in Class 1 of the freshmen." Then he extended his hand in a friendly manner, just like when Huo Yuhao and he first met.
A mocking smile appeared on Huo Yuhao's face as he subtly took half a step to the right.
Excuse me, but men and women should not touch each other.
"So, what brings Wang Dong here to see me?"
Wang Dong lowered his hand with some regret. "Yeah, what did I come here for?"
I want to get his forgiveness and move back into the same dorm room with him.
But Lan Xuanyu is quite to his liking... Why are the Shrek Academy dorm rooms double rooms instead of triple rooms? Wouldn't that mean the three of them could live together?
Want to be friends with him?
"Oh, right, Huo Yuhao, would you be interested in joining our sect?"
"?"
Huo Yuhao didn't expect Wang Dong to suddenly bring up this topic.
"Excuse me, Wang... Dong, I don't have any plans to join any sect at the moment." Then he turned to leave: "If there's nothing else, I'll head back to class."
Lan Xuanyu, who had been observing coldly, hesitated for a moment before walking past Wang Dong and standing in front of Huo Yuhao, blocking his way and staring intently at Huo Yuhao's face.
Something's off about this face too!
Huo Yuhao's appearance is indeed excellent, but the genes of the Dai and Huo families are ultimately no match for the Tang family with its divine inheritance. So, in terms of appearance alone, Huo Yuhao is inferior to Tang Wulin and his predecessor.
But Huo Yuhao's face now... is even stronger than his face in his previous life!
What's going on? We have to find out today!
"Hello, Huo Yuhao, my name is... Lan Xuanyu."
He had always suspected that his uncle Huo Yuhao, who had escaped before the destruction of the Great God Realm and the Dragon God Realm, was a reincarnated person like him. However, after observing him just now, he found that Huo Yuhao's behavior was almost completely different from the Huo Yuhao he knew, which made him extremely confused.
Especially Wang Dong's attitude towards Aunt Tang Wutong.
Although Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong were already estranged when they lived together, they could at least maintain the appearance of a loving couple. But now, it seems that Huo Yuhao doesn't recognize Wang Dong at all.
What's going on?
After much thought, I decided that instead of letting myself speculate and be suspicious, I should just ask directly and get to the bottom of it.
Although he no longer possessed the bloodline of the Dragon God, Lan Xuanyu still diligently practiced the divine cultivation technique "Mysterious Heaven Technique" passed down from his grandfather every day, especially the Purple Demon Eye within it, which he practiced daily without the slightest slackening.
Even though the growth is still slow, there has been considerable progress over time, and he has almost reached the Spirit Sea Realm.
He could see through the slightest unnatural fluctuation in Huo Yuhao's eyes and mental energy.
If he is indeed a reincarnated being, then I have a reason to follow him, or even to contact my grandfather in the God Realm and ask him for help. Ideally, I could directly obtain the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King.
Lan Xuanyu had already thought it through. He didn't need the Golden Dragon King's core; he only needed a few drops of the Golden Dragon King's essence blood. He could use that as leverage to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to find his mother, which would make his journey easier.
Although it might mean losing a father who is younger than himself, for the sake of the Tang family's future, he would rather endure this hardship.
"...?"
Huo Yuhao looked embarrassed.
Rotten Salted Fish? No, what kind of good parents would name their child like that?
It's not entirely Huo Yuhao's fault. The reborn Lan Xuanyu was born in the Douling Empire, where the accents were somewhat different from those in the Xingluo Empire. Moreover, Lan Xuanyu's speech was somewhat unclear, so Huo Yuhao misheard "Lan Xuanyu" as "rotten salted fish".
After hesitating for a moment, Huo Yuhao said with a strange expression, "Hello, Rotten... Rotten Salty Fish classmate, what do you need me for?"
Huo Yuhao couldn't hear Lan Xuanyu clearly, but Lan Xuanyu could hear Huo Yuhao!
He immediately emphasized, "My name is Lan Xuanyu, not some rotten salted fish!"
Huo Yuhao's expression became even stranger. "Blue salted fish?"
"It's Lan Xuanyu! Not Lan Xianyu!"
Just like foreigners arguing with locals over accents, Huo Yuhao and Lan Xuanyu also started arguing over the issue of "blue salted fish".
Huo Yuhao's lips twitched speechlessly. "So, Lan Xianyu, what exactly do you want from me?"
Lan Xuanyu was nearly driven mad, shouting, "Not Lan Xianyu! It's Lan Xuanyu! Lan Xuanyu!"
"Okay, okay, what do you need me for?"
Lan Xuanyu asked with a complicated expression, "You...you really don't recognize me?"
Who the hell are you?
Huo Yuhao was completely dumbfounded. A superstitious girl disguised as a boy with a princess complex, and another guy who came up to him asking if he knew his subordinate—how could Shrek Academy have so many oddballs? He then retorted unhappily, "Should I know you?"
Lan Xuanyu was surprised: "You really don't recognize me?"
Huo Yuhao impatiently pushed him away, "I told you I don't know you! Please don't block my way, I still have to go to class."
