Chapter 317 The two unscrupulous merchants, one big and one small, reached a consensus.
At the foot of a mountain.
Huo Yuhao, carrying the corpse of the Silver Moon Wolf King, landed on a large, protruding rock.
After scanning his surroundings, Huo Yuhao activated his mental detection, and the detection range of two kilometers in diameter brought everything around him into his eyes.
After confirming that there were no soul beasts or people around who could threaten him, Huo Yuhao patted his waist, took out several spider mines, and placed them around the area. He then took out several thermal energy fluctuation sensors and placed them as well.
After Huo Yuhao finished setting up the soul tool trap, Ye Nanxiao arrived.
"Muddy, I'm going to start preparing to absorb the spirit ring!" Huo Yuhao said with a hint of excitement in his voice.
Ye Nanxiao nodded and said, "You absorb the soul ring, and I will protect you."
Huo Yuhao placed the three wolf corpses on the stone, pressed his hands on the heads of the two golden wolves, and muttered incantations.
A deathly stillness emanated from Huo Yuhao as he muttered obscure and incomprehensible words, his eyes gleaming with a gray light.
"Is it Elder Yi's magic?" Ye Nanxiao quietly watched Huo Yuhao's spellcasting process, and also used his mental power to record the incantation Huo Yuhao was chanting.
As the mental energy was recorded, a gray hue entered Ye Nanxiao's mind.
The obscure and complex incantation echoed in Ye Nanxiao's mind like a great bell.
Ye Nanxiao felt as if thousands of people were speaking in his ear in a language he didn't understand, and that they were draining his mental energy.
"What language?" Bajiao was startled by Ye Nanxiao's actions and exited his cultivation state.
Xue Di conjured two cotton balls and stuffed them into her ears, but it was no use.
"Xiao'er, these languages contain extremely strange power, but they make me feel very uncomfortable!" Xue Di floated in Ye Nanxiao's spiritual sea, trying her best to isolate herself from the influence of the incantation.
Necromantic magic is driven by undead creatures, which are inherently disliked by the world.
As a snow maiden born naturally from the heavens and earth, the Snow Empress naturally disliked it.
Upon hearing Xue Di's words, Ye Nanxiao decisively withdrew his mental energy after listening for a while.
A lingering sense of dizziness remained in my mind, and it seemed as if someone was whispering in my ear again.
Electrolux, residing in Huo Yuhao's Eye of Destiny, suddenly opened his eyes and looked in Ye Nanxiao's direction.
"Such wondrous spiritual power, transcending the soul? Is this some new trick the little fox came up with? Did he understand the incantation?" Electrox muttered to himself.
He sensed a spiritual force he had never felt before, but then he couldn't feel it anymore.
"I don't understand, I've failed to comprehend it, let it go." Ye Nanxiao put down the two silver wolves he was carrying on his shoulder.
After glancing around and carefully sensing the traps set by Huo Yuhao, Ye Nanxiao lowered his head and took out a barbecue grill from his ring.
"Patrol this area and protect us," Huo Yuhao said softly.
The golden wolf, now a ghost, nodded, and with a few leaps, disappeared into the surrounding bushes.
"Hey, I'm about to start absorbing the spirit rings, why did you take out the grill?" Huo Yuhao blinked as he watched Ye Nanxiao take out the grill.
"Silver wolf meat is said to be a top-quality ingredient, how can our army of foodies in the Celestial Empire let it go!" Ye Nanxiao pointed to the two silver wolf carcasses lying on the stone.
Huo Yuhao's lips twitched slightly. "But Nijiang, I need to absorb a spirit ring!"
Ye Nanxiao nodded, lifted the barbecue grill, jumped off the rock, and said, "Then I'll go further away."
"Forget it, anyway, Muddy won't just abandon me and run away. Let's absorb the spirit ring first." Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly, reached out and pulled the black spirit ring floating above the Silver Moon Wolf King, slowly drawing it down to himself.
In Huo Yuhao's Eye of Destiny, Electrolux was curious about Ye Nanxiao's attempt to understand the magic Huo Yuhao had just performed.
"The little fox can actually hear the spell without any serious abnormal reaction?" Electrox muttered to himself.
Without receiving their own guidance and enlightenment, hearing the incantations of necromancy should cause a strong sense of unease, as if falling into an abyss.
Huo Yuhao overcame the great discomfort he initially felt when he came into contact with necromancy, and only chose to accept necromancy after understanding the inherently neither good nor evil nature of magic.
"Truly interesting. Such spiritual power... Could the little fox be a recluse like me? I'll have to ask him about it sometime in the future." Electrox secretly noted down what happened today, deciding to ask Ye Nanxiao about it when he had the chance.
"But we shouldn't tell the little fox about this magic." Electrox sighed slightly. He could sense a magical blessing emanating from Ye Nanxiao, a power that surpassed all the strong individuals Huo Yuhao had encountered so far.
Ye Nanxiao conjured a large piece of floating ice, then melted it into water, and skillfully began to groom the two silver wolves.
On the other side, the all-terrain soul guide detector raised its mechanical leg and plunged it into the rocks on the ground. With the help of the long-range soul guide device, Ju Zi and Ke Ke saw the battle scene where the golden wolf pack encountered Ye Nanxiao, the terrorist.
"So many golden wolves, Ye Nanxiao and the others must have been injured quite a bit, right?" Ke Ke frowned, her hands fidgeting nervously in front of her.
Such a large pack of golden wolves, and the fierce-winged eagles circling overhead for a long time.
Orange carefully examined the battlefield covered in icicles for a while, then sat in the driver's seat, activated the all-terrain soul guide detector, and said, "Let's go. That bastard fox and the others are fine. Most of the golden wolves are still alive, just frozen stiff."
"Frozen stiff? Where did Ye Nanxiao and Huo Yuhao go?" Keke asked.
Ju Zi took out a token-shaped soul tool from her bosom and quickly moved her fingers across it.
A radar-like interface appears on the surface of the token, with a small arrow in the upper left corner.
Orange turned around to confirm the direction the arrow was pointing, and then pushed the control stick forcefully.
"I've put a tracking device on that damn fox. They should have succeeded and found a place to hide and absorb the soul rings," Orange explained to Keke while piloting the all-terrain soul guide detector.
Keke's eyes widened slightly. "You installed a tracking device on Ye Nanxiao? How exciting! Is it convenient to catch him and make him kneel on durians?"
Installing a GPS tracker on someone indicates a relationship based on extreme trust.
"If that bastard fox has no objections, I'll install it." Orange said calmly, as if it were just a small matter between her and Ye Nanxiao.
Keke mimicked Ye Nanxiao's usual deadpan expression, giving Ju Zi a thumbs-up and nodding as she said, "You're amazing! I've been worrying about you for nothing!"
Orange pursed her lips, but for some reason, Keke's reaction made her feel a little happy.
Following the location, Ju Zi quickly found the hiding place that Ye Nanxiao and Huo Yuhao had temporarily chosen.
Just as the all-terrain soul-guided detector entered the area at the foot of the mountain, the phantom fox, which had been lying down with its eyes closed to rest, suddenly stood up, called out to the orange twice, and then let out a low growl.
Orange and Coco were startled by the sudden action of the phantom fox, but Orange immediately understood.
"Danger ahead, Coco, get ready!" Orange's face was slightly pale; piloting the all-terrain soul-guided detector had taken a toll on her.
Keke instantly pulled out a soul-guided cannon and placed it on the window.
The next moment, a golden wolf with its fur standing on end like needles slowly came into Orange's view.
"What a strange golden wolf! Why are its eyes gray?" Orange wondered, but she didn't dare to be careless. If there was only one golden wolf, it wouldn't be a threat, but golden wolves are social soul beasts.
The phantom fox hopped to Orange's feet, its fox eyes gleaming faintly. If Orange was in danger, it would immediately create an illusion.
"Wangcai! Go away!" Ye Nanxiao conjured an ice ball in his hand and smashed it towards the undead golden wolf.
The ice hockey puck flew past the golden wolf's fur.
The undead golden wolf, its tongue lolling out, dashed off to chase the ice ball.
When Huo Yuhao set up the magic, he also made the undead golden wolf confirm that Ye Nanxiao was one of the masters.
Upon seeing Ye Nanxiao, Ju Zi left the driver's seat and quickly stepped out of the all-terrain soul-guided detector.
As Keke was putting away the Soul Guidance Cannon, she felt a fragrant breeze pass by her.
Keke "?"
Orange quickly approached Ye Nanxiao and, seeing that he was still holding a piece of meat steak, suddenly became angry. "You damn fox! Can't you at least tell me beforehand next time you're going to do something?! Do you know how dangerous it is to leave the team without permission?!"
"This time you were just lucky to encounter a pack of golden wolves and silver wolves with relatively low cultivation levels! What will you do if you encounter spirit beasts like the Golden-Palm Tiger or the Ring-Patterned Bear next time?"
Orange spoke very quickly, leaving Ye Nanxiao, who was greeting her with a piece of pork chop forked in his hand, only able to blink blankly and listen to Orange's lecture.
Keke put away the all-terrain soul guide detector, and watching Ju Zi, who was lecturing Ye Nanxiao, tactfully stood at a distance, holding the little phantom fox and watching the show.
Huanhu witnessed Ju Zi's prowess once again. Xue Di had previously told her that Ye Nanxiao was a very powerful human and that following him would only bring benefits. However, now Ye Nanxiao was being scolded by Ju Zi, which reminded her of how she usually disciplined her daughter.
Raising its paw and gently stroking its chin, the phantom fox seemed to realize that Orange could easily outmaneuver Ye Nanxiao and was a powerful being.
Seeing that Ju Zi was tired of talking, Ye Nanxiao picked up a pork chop and said, "Want some? Silver Wolf's pork chop, it's delicious!"
Ju Zi pursed her lips, realizing that Ye Nanxiao hadn't listened to a single word of her lecturing.
"What about that Golden Tiger you just mentioned? How's the meat? Is it tasty?" Ye Nanxiao licked the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
Silver wolf meat opened up a whole new world of delicious food for him.
Orange snatched the steak in a huff and glared at Ye Nanxiao, taking a big bite out of the meat.
"Why is Ju Xiaohan angry?" Ye Nanxiao asked, somewhat puzzled.
When Huo Yuhao opened his eyes again, the crescent moon was high in the sky, and it was nighttime.
The campfire burned, and the wood crackled and popped.
Ye Nanxiao was standing next to the barbecue grill, turning over piece after piece of meat that emitted a rich aroma. Ju Zi was lying on Ye Nanxiao's recliner, holding a stick in her hand.
"Awake? How's the absorption going?" Keke asked.
Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "The absorption is going smoothly, so why are they still cooking?"
With the help of the Dream Ice Silkworm and the Ice Emperor, the Silver Moon Wolf King's will to resist was almost crushed.
Keke glanced at Ye Nanxiao and Ju Zi and said, "After finding you, I didn't expect you to absorb the energy so quickly, so I set up a lot of traps around you. By the time I finished, it was already dark. That's why I'm only just starting to cook."
Huo Yuhao felt a warmth in his heart, a smile appeared on his lips, and he stood up and stretched. The feeling of power filling his body was wonderful.
"You're awake? What are you going to do with the corpse of that Silver Moon Wolf King? If you're going to go back and settle accounts with Dong Wuye, count me and Keke in." Ju Zi turned to look at Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao glanced at the frozen corpse of the Silver Moon Wolf King, pondered for a moment, and couldn't say whether he liked Dong Wuye or not. He didn't have much malice either, after all, if Dong Wuye hadn't attracted the Silver Moon Wolf King, he might not have gotten his soul ring yet.
However, being used as a henchman twice in a row made Huo Yuhao very unhappy.
"That bastard Dong Wuye! May a calamity star descend from the heavens! He made us encounter beast tides twice in a row and get caught up in them! I'm just about to blast that bastard to pieces!" Keke said, waving her little fists with a disgruntled expression.
"This idiot said he was going to take revenge on the Illusion Fox, but he didn't expect to run into a tough opponent again when he led the team into the mountains. He was targeted by the Silver Moon Wolf King, who can conquer other soul beasts. He's really unlucky," Orange said, shaking her head slightly.
"No way! I have to settle the score with that bastard! I can't let myself suffer this misfortune for no reason!" Keke said angrily.
Orange nodded; she was also very unhappy with Dong Wuye's behavior.
Orange stretched out her little foot and kicked Ye Nanxiao's thigh, asking, "You bastard fox, what are your thoughts? I don't believe you'll let Dong Wuye go so easily."
Ye Nanxiao reached out and slapped away the little feet that were messing around on his thigh, blinked, and then turned to look at Huo Yuhao.
Just then, Huo Yuhao also looked up at Ye Nanxiao.
The two brothers exchanged a glance, both seeing the glint of a cunning merchant in each other's eyes.
The two cunning foxes reached a consensus: they would make a killing!
"Dong Wuye has given us a great gift, so we should reciprocate." Ye Nanxiao looked at the frozen Silver Moon Wolf King with a sly smile on his face.
