--- Chapter 269 ---

Huo Yuhao could feel countless piercing gazes landing on his body as these people tried to guess his identity. Unfortunately for these people, his identity as the Dragon Nest's Leader is well-protected.

To them, he's only a mysterious young man who had taken Queen of Thunder as his partner tonight.

"Zero Disciple?"

"What kind of position is that? I've never heard of it."

"Dragon Nest, what are you planning to do exactly?"

"Aah, I'm so jealous. How could a brat who's wet behind the ears could become a partner with the Queen of Thunder?"

"Unfair, this world is unfair!"

Bewilderment, jealousy, and condemnation alternated around the guests as they watched Huo Yuhao standing at the Elegant Merchant Hall's entrance.

Ultimately, all those emotions flowed into one question.

Just who is this handsome young man?

Of course, Huo Yuhao ignored them because he didn't need to explain himself and glanced at Liu Mei. He nudged his arm and smiled, "Are we just going to stand here and do nothing?"

Although brief, Huo Yuhao's charming smile captivated every lady in the hall.

"Oh my god, I thought he was handsome enough, but that smile..."

"That goddamn smile makes this young man even more handsome."

"Yeah, I felt jealous of the Queen of Thunder now."

"Where did she find such a fine man?"

"Ssshh, sit down bitch. You're not worthy of such a handsome guy."

"What did you say?!"

Huo Yuhao has toned down his charm by several levels, but since he had become the God of Lust, the opposite gender would have a blast finding him attractive.

It's a troublesome curse that's a blessing in disguise.

Liu Mei hugged Huo Yuhao's arm even tighter as they walked under the gaze of thousands of people, striding a long hallway with an overbearing aura that ordinary people couldn't help.

Gasps echoed one after another.

People felt inferior before these very two.

As Huo Yuhao and Liu Mei arrived at the mermaid statue, Huo Yun'er gave them a sly look and clapped her hand. Instantly, the hall becomes as quiet as a tranquil sea.

"Everyone, I, the vice-leader of Dragon Nest, welcome you to this very banquet."

"My name is Huo Yun'er, nice to meet you." She flashed her pearly teeth at everyone.

Everyone looked at Huo Yun'er in surprise.

They already expected such a goddess to have an impressive background and identity, but never in their wildest dreams thought she was the vice-leader of the infamous Dragon Nest.

"Heaven. Not only was she goddess-like, but I also couldn't sense her cultivation. Dragon Nest's strength is unfathomable!" An elder, who is a Title Douluo, commented.

Huo Yun'er stretched her hand and introduced Scathach, "This lady right here is Dragon Nest's Elite Disciple, Yang Xin."

When Scathach was summoned/transmigrated to this world, her soul occupied a dying girl named Yang Xin. And she used the name for her second identity, which is very convenient.

Simply put, Scathach's name is too unique to use in the cultivation world's settings. Not to mention, Scahach dislikes annoyance matters.

After hearing Huo Yun'er, the guests looked at Scathach with reverence because the rumor said less than ten youths could become Elite Disciples in the Dragon Nest.

And those spots are even determined beforehand for monstrous geniuses who got admitted to the White Room Division.

Sensing the positive response, Huo Yun'er laughed inside because these fools are easy to trick. Scathach's real identity as the Great Instructor is a real piece of the deal.

Huo Yun'er felt overly amused and coughed lightly, "And this young lady is Qianye Ying'er. Another Elite Disciple, whose rank is only lower than Yang Xin."

This time, everyone looked at Qianye Ying'er and felt their hearts flutter because, unlike Scathach's overbearing appearance, this innocent-looking lady was more comfortable to look at.

Of course, they couldn't be more wrong.

At the moment, people from the Qianye Clan are staring at Qianye Ying'er with a shocked look. They didn't expect the lost duckling to grow into a beautiful swan in just a few years.

They have discovered that Qianye Ying'er holds some importance in the Dragon Nest since she could represent the faction and even declare war against them a few months ago.

But learning she was an Elite Disciple made their heads buzz in fear. Her potential and future achievements are limitless!

If not for their new leader, Azazel, who has taken over the Qianye Clan, they wouldn't even come to Java Island and probably hide in the secluded part of the Douluo Continent.

Huo Yun'er clapped her hand again to calm everyone down and said, "As everyone knows, this beautiful woman is the Dragon Nest's Queen of Thunder."

"Her prestige soared high after our first auction."

"So, I'm sure nearly all of you know her."

She giggled pleasantly, "But I'm even more sure you're curious about the identity of the young man beside her."

"And what Zero Disciple actually means..."

Everyone collectively nodded their heads like chickens. They are indeed curious about Huo Yuhao's identity.

Building the anticipation, Huo Yun'er pulled a fan and covered her lower face to look more mysterious.

'Aih, she's playing around with them.' Huo Yuhao sighed at his mother's antics.

The light's source from the silver pillars dimmed and darkened the room considerably. A light spot appeared and locked on Huo Yuhao, making him the main character of tonight's party.

"Let me introduce you to my one and only son, Huo Yuhao." This one introduction alone was already shocking to the guest.

But it was not over yet.

Huo Yun'er slowly lowered her fan, "He's also Dragon Nest's number one genius and the only disciple of Dragon Nest's Leader!"

"He's Zero Disciple, the only one above ten elites. As a matter of fact, his identity is even higher than a vice-leader like I am..."

The corner of Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched slightly. Huo Yun'er was spouting nonsense confidently and didn't even stutter a bit.

She also mixed lies with the truth because her vice-leader position is truthfully lower than his. However, that's because he's the leader of Dragon Nest.

Upon learning the critical information about Huo Yuhao's identity, everyone takes a deep breath.

Who doesn't know about the mysterious leader of Dragon Nest?

Rumor said he's the strongest Title Douluo in the world, reaching Level 99 at a young age. To think this handsome young man is the only disciple of such a powerhouse.

Once again, their worldviews were 'naturally' refreshed.

The majority of the guests had their jaws dropped. Even the elders, who were supposed to protect them, couldn't help but look at Huo Yuhao with indescribable dread.

Just how talented this young man is for the Dragon Nest's Leader to take the fancy of him as his disciple. Their little minds couldn't imagine it, but some are too brave to try.

Huo Yuhao waved his hand and said, "We are here not to compare our status. Everyone, please enjoy the party without pressure."

"The dance will start in a moment."

After saying that, Huo Yuhao took Liu Mei to the empty table for Dragon Nest's members. He was about to sit down when someone introduced themselves to him.

They are wearing the formal uniforms of Sun and Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy.

"Esteemed Zero Disciple, my name is Jing Hongchen." Said a man with a golden-rimmed monocle greeted him. "I'd like to know more about you."

"Also, maybe my grandson and granddaughter could become friends with you."

"Nice to meet you, Zero Disciple." A young man in white attire greeted Huo Yuhao respectfully.

"My name is Xiao Hongchen."

"And this is my younger sister."

A young woman in a white-blue dress stepped forward. She looked at Huo Yuhao with an 'extremely infatuated' look, "My name is Meng Hengchen. Handsome, you look even better close up."

Huo Yuhao chuckled because he was surprised by Meng Hongchen's boldness, "Nice to meet you three, but I don't think your goal is only friendship."

"Right?"

"Jing Hongchen, if you're up to no good, I don't mind teaching you a lesson." Liu Mei was defensive for Huo Yuhao.

Jing Hongchen raised his hands awkwardly because he couldn't defeat Liu Mei, even if he had been given one million chances.

He cleared his throat and returned, "No, no. Queen of Thunder, please don't take my intention negatively."

"We truly only want to befriend esteemed Zero Disciple."

"To show my sincerity, I'd like to give this Spirit Embryo to you as a gift."

An hourglass-like device appeared before their eyes, and the inside was a beautiful green-white crystal that emitted intense cold light.

'That green-white crystal... There is no mistake.' Huo Yuhao could feel a presence related to snow inside.

'Yuhao, take that crystal RIGHT FUCKING NOW!' Bing Di shouted from the Spiritual World.

Huo Yuhao laughed helplessly inside and gave Jing Hongchen a friendly smile, "Then, I will not reject Senior Hongchen's kindness."

"Thank you for the gift. It's an interesting treasure."

"I'm glad you like it." Jing Hongchen sighed in relief. His heart is bleeding because Spirit Embryo is very rare and cost a fortune for him to buy a while ago.

At first, he planned to use it on his grandson.

However, building a relationship with the Dragon Nest's Zero Disciple is much more meaningful, especially since this blue-haired young man is a disciple of untouched existence.

Huo Yuhao knew he couldn't kick them away immediately and offered, "Senior Hongchen, why don't you and your grandchildren sit down and let me hear what you had in mind."

"Thank you." Jing Hongchen grabbed a seat opposite of him.

Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen also sat down, looking at Huo Yuhao great interest.

As they sat down, Jing Hongchen coughed and continued, "Actually, I have a small proposal."

'I thought you had no other intention than befriending me? Damn, Jing Hongchen, your face is thicker than a wall!' Huo Yuhao and Liu Mei gave the bespectacled man a peculiar look.
