**Chapter 20: The Auspicious Beast Has Something Wrong with It These Two Days**
Huo Yuhao noticed the two sugar bottles on his dining table, but he used his mental power to sense that the bottle on the edge of the table was empty, while the bottle closer to him had sugar.
For some reason, he always felt that something was strange. At this time, three options popped up in front of Huo Yuhao.
—
[Option 1: Leave without hesitation. Completion reward: one Wind-Running Pill]
[Option 2: Eat breakfast before leaving. Completion reward: one Qi-recovering Pill]
[Option 3: Help Wang Dong add a few spoonfuls of sugar before leaving. Completion reward: Naling (assists in the fusion of the Heavenly Flame; opens up a special small space in the body to store the Heavenly Flame)]
—
Huo Yuhao chose option three, as the Naling reward would prepare him for the absorption of the Heavenly Flame.
Then he calmed down and drank the porridge slowly.
Soon, Wang Dong came over, bent slightly, and placed the porridge gently on Huo Yuhao's dining table, preparing to add sugar.
Wang Dong glanced at Huo Yuhao and was immediately captivated by his clear, lively eyes. She couldn't help but stare at them for a few more seconds, thinking that this pair of eyes was very beautiful.
She didn't use her mental power to perceive, instead simply reaching for the sugar bottle on the edge of the table.
When she touched the bottle, she realized the weight was wrong; it was obviously empty.
Wang Dong turned her gaze toward the sugar bottle near Huo Yuhao's arms and wanted to reach for it.
However, she thought she should be more polite, then she blinked and looked at Huo Yuhao, asking, "Hey, can you help me add a few spoons of sugar?"
"Okay," Huo Yuhao nodded.
"Thanks! Just add three spoonfuls of sugar." Huo Yuhao opened the bottle cap and used the small spoon that came with it to help Wang Dong add two spoonfuls of sugar.
Though Wang Dong might have been more arrogant and ambitious in the original novel, she was sincere in her feelings. After her gender transformation into Wang Dong'er, her personality remained charming.
Wang Dong picked up the porridge and couldn't help but glance at Huo Yuhao's bright eyes again. After hesitating for a moment, she returned to her dining table.
Huo Yuhao immediately stood up, paid the bill, and walked out of the shop.
—
[Option mission completed, reward: Naling]
—
Holding a map in his hand, Huo Yuhao began to plan the subsequent lone wolf mission.
During the lone wolf process, after absorbing the Chilling Bone Flame and Purple Flame, he would be around level 20 by then.
The reward for free development to level 20 was the Heavy Xuan Ruler, and after reaching level 20, he would definitely obtain the second martial soul.
Therefore, the actions he was planning now needed to gradually lean toward the choice of the second martial soul.
Huo Yuhao thought of the extreme cold attribute of the Chilling Bone Flame: "For the second martial soul, there seem to be two special options."
One was to retain the "soulless ice attribute" provided by Tianmeng and use the origin ice as the second martial soul. Then, by absorbing the extreme cold attribute of the Chilling Bone Flame, as well as the souls of the Ice Emperor, Snow Emperor, etc., the ice element would continue to evolve.
The second option was to directly use the Chilling Bone Flame as the second martial soul. The quality of this strange fire was undoubtedly higher than all the souls of Huo Gua in the original novel; it was clear and straightforward.
Huo Yuhao knew that the path for the choice of the second martial soul had already been paved in Tianmeng's god-making plan.
That was the Ice Blue Emperor Scorpion, the Ice Emperor, from the Far North.
Just follow the steps, and he could become the first-level god of emotions.
However, before he traveled through time, Huo Gua was able to become the God of Emotions. Now that he had traveled through time, if he were still to be the God of Emotions, then wouldn't his journey through time be in vain?
So changes must be made.
You would never reach new heights by following the old path.
The first martial soul's spiritual eyes had been determined. If one wanted to significantly raise the upper limit in the future, the quality of the second martial soul would play a decisive role.
...
Star Forest, core area, next to the Lake of Life.
When the Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked at the scene contained in the light ball today, her emotions were like a rollercoaster, constantly changing with ups and downs.
When she saw the Second Soul Master Competition, she was in a good mood. She had made a lot of splashes in the competition and had shown her prowess.
"Ha, this auspicious beast is quite powerful. Leading Shrek and other talented students, I have hardly lost in the Second Soul Master Competition. I have always suppressed my opponents in every game."
However, the Second Soul Master Competition ended at the Qiankun Wenqing Valley.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion lay on the ground and didn't want to eat. She looked a little depressed.
At the same time, she also noticed something was wrong: "Could it be that the villain Huo Yuhao mentioned, along with the tricks to get himself killed, is the same person controlling Qiankun Wenqing Valley?"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion scratched the golden hair on her head with her claws and finally realized the problem.
But the Red King, who was standing nearby, felt anxious when he saw the auspicious beast looking depressed.
Ever since the auspicious beast suddenly started caring about its external image yesterday, Red King had some vague guesses in his heart. The auspicious beast's lack of appetite today further confirmed his suspicions.
When the Red King saw the auspicious beast facing a ball of light, he was so angry that smoke seemed to come out of his head. He scratched his ears and cheeks in annoyance, sighed worriedly, and then disappeared.
After a period of time, Di Tian was awakened by the Red King.
"Di Tian, there is something I must tell you. There is something wrong with the auspicious beast these past two days."
Somewhere in the space, there was a distortion, and a tall figure stepped out.
Di Tian transformed into a three-meter-tall burly man, with long jet-black hair flowing behind him and a resolute face that exuded an indescribable strength.
Di Tian waved his hand. "If something unexpected happens to the auspicious beast, I will be even more anxious than you. You should observe for a while. Maybe this phenomenon is just temporary."
"Okay... Then I will think of some interesting stories to tell the auspicious beast." The Red King disappeared.
At this time, the space in front of Di Tian was extremely distorted, and a huge vortex appeared, from which an illusory projection emerged. It was a huge dragon claw covered with silver hexagonal scales.
"My Lord, is the change that this other breath of destiny brings to the auspicious beast good or bad?"
After the Red King left, Di Tian showed an uncertain expression.
