Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Chapter 182: Nan Qiuqiu: Am I an add-on?

When you're out in the world, you need power and background.

Nan Shuishui was sure that if she touched Huo Yuhao today, the Title Douluo of his Body Sect would destroy their Earth Dragon Gate. They were just that unreasonable and overbearing.

"Earth Dragon Gate? Is that the Earth Dragon Gate in Dragon City?" Huo Yuhao asked, while other thoughts arose in his mind. There was also a treasure in the Earth Dragon Gate.

"Unexpectedly, young master also knows of our Earth Dragon Gate?"

"Of course. The Earth Dragon Gate is also one of the top sects in the Heaven Soul Empire. How could I not know?" Huo Yuhao said with a smile.

"Young master is joking. In front of your sect, what does our Earth Dragon Gate amount to?" Nan Shuishui wasn't being polite. In this era, without a Title Douluo to guard it, you really didn't amount to much. Although the Body Sect had been secluded for many years, they should still have seven or eight Title Douluos. To the Earth Dragon Gate, that was simply an unshakeable behemoth.

Nan Shuishui didn't want to say more at this point. She felt that every moment she spent beside Huo Yuhao was another moment of danger, especially with Huo Yuhao's calm and composed demeanor, which confirmed her previous thought that there must be a strong member of the Body Sect hidden nearby.

"Gate Master Nan, are you here for this soul beast?" Huo Yuhao didn't bother to beat around the bush with Nan Shuishui and went straight to the point.

Nan Shuishui's face was a little unnatural. She was here for more than just the soul beast. She had even thought about killing and robbing just now, but could she say that?

"To be honest, young master, I sensed the aura of a 100,000-year soul beast just now, and it was very weak. I thought a 100,000-year soul beast was seriously injured, so I came to investigate the situation."

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly. The reason was sound. In fact, he had the same purpose as Nan Shuishui before, taking advantage of someone's illness to take their life, all thinking of picking up a bargain.

"Then, Gate Master Nan, are you interested in this transformed soul beast?"

Nan Shuishui's face changed, and she waved her hands repeatedly, explaining, "Young master, don't misunderstand. Since this soul beast has already been captured by you, I naturally won't take what you love."

Huo Yuhao: "…"

What could the Earth Dragon Gate have that Huo Yuhao would be interested in? Could it be... Thinking this, Nan Shuishui couldn't help but turn her head to look at her daughter, her gaze strange.

Nan Qiuqiu felt a chill when she met her mother's gaze. Why did she feel like her mother was looking at her like she was appraising a piece of merchandise?

"I heard that your Earth Dragon Gate has a cold spring cave, naturally extremely cold. The temperature is so low that even a Title Douluo can't stay for long. Gate Master Nan should know that my second martial soul is also ice-attributed, so I want to buy that cave as a place to cultivate. I wonder what the gate master thinks?" Huo Yuhao spoke eloquently, completely unaware that Nan Shuishui had already misunderstood.

What? How would he know? Nan Shuishui was shocked after hearing that Huo Yuhao's purpose was the cave within the sect. She didn't expect that Huo Yuhao even knew about this. But she couldn't agree. According to the Earth Dragon Gate's predecessors, that cave was likely a mineral vein, a mineral vein with ice-attributed rare metals.

Not to mention the value of this mineral vein, just talking about the transaction, how would they trade? That cave was within their sect. The Body Sect couldn't possibly move the cave away. But if they used the cave as a cultivation place as Huo Yuhao said, that wouldn't work either. What would it be like if people from the Body Sect stayed in their Earth Dragon Gate for a long time?

What if the Body Sect had other intentions? Wouldn't that be inviting a wolf into the house?

Nan Shuishui's face was uncertain. From the bottom of her heart, she refused, but would the Body Sect let it go because of her refusal? If it were other forces, they might still consider face and not dare to openly plunder, but the style of that bunch of Body Sect people... the less said the better.

Huo Yuhao saw Nan Shuishui's unwillingness and added, "Gate Master Nan might as well listen to my conditions. As long as Gate Master Nan is willing to give me that cave, I can give her to you." As he said this, Huo Yuhao pointed to the white-haired woman at his feet.

"Also, I only need to borrow that cave for fifty years, and it will be returned to you after fifty years. What do you think?"

"What, are you serious? You're really willing to exchange her?" Nan Shuishui couldn't help but get excited. A 100,000-year soul ring was never so close to her.

Nan Shuishui admitted that she was tempted. To put it bluntly, Huo Yuhao was using a 100,000-year soul beast to rent the sect's cave for fifty years. Nan Shuishui felt that this was not unacceptable, as long as people from the Body Sect didn't stay in the Earth Dragon Gate for a long time.

As for why it was only fifty years, Nan Shuishui could also guess that the Body Sect probably knew that there were rare metals deep in the cave, and fifty years was enough for them to mine it all out.

In fact, although Nan Shuishui's guess had some deviations, it wasn't far off. Huo Yuhao did plan to do so, except that what he wanted wasn't rare metals, but Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Marrow.

Nan Shuishui's expression changed again and again, suppressing the joy in her heart. Suddenly, she changed the subject and said with a smile, "Young master, what do you think of my daughter? Does she catch your eye?"

Huh? Huo Yuhao was stunned by Nan Shuishui's jumpy conversation. After realizing what she meant, he couldn't help but roll his eyes. Good fellow, she really liked to promote her daughter.

"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about?" Nan Qiuqiu was a little angry. What did she mean? Did she feel like she was taking too much advantage and was embarrassed, so she wanted to use her daughter as an add-on?

"Gate Master Nan, business is business. Talking about feelings hurts money, don't you think?"

Nan Shuishui: "…"

Is that really okay for you to say? Nan Shuishui felt that people like Huo Yuhao definitely had no friends, definitely none.

Huff!

Suck!

Huff!

Nan Shuishui suppressed the urge to beat Huo Yuhao to death and pretended to be bitter, "It's not that I'm unwilling, but my Earth Dragon Gate is small and insignificant. What if the news of the 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone is exposed, and we're coveted by others, inviting disaster?"

I believe you're a ghost. Huo Yuhao could see that this woman wanted to wait for a higher price. She was treating him like a sucker, but how could Huo Yuhao let her have her way?

So Huo Yuhao pretended to sigh regretfully, "So that's how it is. I was abrupt. In that case, let's cancel this transaction. We still have urgent matters, so we'll take our leave."

Nan Shuishui: "…"

I was just saying! Why did you take it seriously? You should raise the price! If you raise the price again, I'll agree!

Seeing that Huo Yuhao was about to leave with the transformed soul beast, Nan Shuishui couldn't help but call out, "Young master, wait. Alas, never mind. Since young master has said it to this point, I'm not an unreasonable person. The cave will be yours then. I'll reluctantly accept this transformed soul beast."

After speaking, Nan Shuishui released her soul power and grabbed the white-haired woman.

Huo Yuhao: "…"

Is this what women are like? The typical 'say one thing, mean another'! Hehe!

Nan Qiuqiu turned her head away, feeling very embarrassed. She wanted to tell others, this isn't my mom, I don't know her.
