Chapter 123: Duke of the White Tiger
Seeing that Du Lao was about to tell Huo Yuhao's identity, Dai Keyheng's eyes were quick, and he hurriedly made a gesture of waving his hand in front of him, and at the same time squeezed his eyes.
As the most trusted general of the Duke of the White Tiger, Du Lao's loyalty and ability to observe words and emotions are naturally not bad, so he reacted immediately and stopped in time.
He looked at Huo Yuhao, the corners of the latter's mouth rose slightly, revealing an intriguing smile.
Wang Dong endured the overturning of the river and the sea in his body, and said to Huo Yuhao angrily: "What are you smirking at there? β
"Didn't laugh at anything." Huo Yuhao turned his head and said, "Brother Caitou, come to Genhuazi." β
"Give ......"
He Caitou didn't even have the strength to chant the soul spell, and threw him a one that was almost dry from the soul guide.
Huo Yuhao took it indifferently.
It was still late at night when they arrived at the western border of the Star Luo Empire, and it was almost dawn after they rested.
Everyone set off again, using the Flying Soul Guide to fly into the air, following behind Du Lao and White Tiger Guard.
The endless barracks are built along the mountain, neatly planned, and just looking at it from afar, you can feel a sense of solemnity.
"Drinkβ"
"Hah-"
It was early in the morning, and many soldiers had already begun to practice, both in action and shouting, all of them were neat and majestic.
Dai Keyheng flew slowly beside Huo Yuhao, and said with a smile: "Yuhao, how long has it been since you came to the barracks?" How are the soldiers of the Central Army in spirit? Although they haven't fought in a long time, they have never slackened in training. β
Looking down at the barracks, there was a hint of pride on his face.
Huo Yuhao nodded and said lightly: "It is right to be prepared for danger in times of peace, the so-called truce is just a pretense, and the Sun and Moon Empire cannot be so peaceful." β
"Actually, you and I both know that the strength of the Sun and Moon Empire is far more than what it seems. Everything before that was nothing more than a petty fight. Now both countries still maintain the appearance of etiquette, and the real strong have never intervened in the war. β
"If a full-scale war really starts, the Star Luo Empire is likely to be vulnerable."
Dai Keyheng's face was gloomy, but he did not refute Huo Yuhao's negative remarks. He knew that what Huo Yuhao said was right.
How could the strength of the Sun and Moon Empire, which could barely be defeated by relying on the joint efforts of the three major empires of the entire Douluo Continent, only this?
Wang Dong controlled the Flying Soul Guide and tried to get close to the two, trying to eavesdrop on their speech, but he couldn't hear them clearly. I finally heard it clearly, and it was foggy.
He simply didn't listen to it, and muttered, "What's the matter, it's so mysterious." β
The crowd flew for another quarter of an hour, and the barracks passed under their feet, and finally a huge hexagonal tent came into view.
This tent was much larger than the others, and there were two teams of white tiger guards patrolling around it.
Obviously, this is the marshal's tent.
Huo Yuhao squinted, and could see a familiar figure in front of the tent.
He is tall and mighty, with an extraordinary momentum, and his body exudes strength and domineering. He seemed to be practicing boxing, and although he didn't release his martial spirit, every punch he threw showed an infinite sense of power.
Of course Huo Yuhao knew him, he was his physiologic father in this world.
Duke of the White Tiger, Dai Hao.
The White Tiger Duke was naked, revealing a strong bronze muscle, and his tall figure was nearly two meters. The thick qi and blood fluctuations on his body intensified with each punch.
The aura of slaughter emanated from him, causing every Shrek student's hairs to stand on end, and they inhaled cool air.
Except for Huo Yuhao.
Everyone landed one after another, and the guard Du Lao stepped forward quickly and bowed slightly: "Marshal, the eldest young master and Shrek students are here." β
"Hmm."
The White Tiger Duke nodded slightly, turned around, and the blue eyes with each pair of pupils exuded iron blood and fortitude, which made all the students feel a trace of awe.
Dai Keyheng walked out, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "Father." β
Duke White Tiger nodded, motioned for Dai Keyheng to stand up, and walked towards the others.
His gaze swept over everyone, smiling, and was about to open his mouth to welcome, when he suddenly noticed that he was attracted by a slightly bowed figure in the back row, and a trace of sluggishness appeared on his resolute face, and then his eyes revealed a trace of gentle tenderness, and he spoke with some surprise.
"Yuhao?"
"Why are you here?"
Dai Keyheng's face changed, he forgot that when he wrote to inform the Duke of White Tiger, he didn't know who the reserve team was, and he didn't tell him that Huo Yuhao would also come.
Wang Yan and the others couldn't help but be stunned, suspecting that they had heard it wrong.
Does Duke White Tiger know Huo Yuhao? And to him so softly?
Huo Yuhao's expression was cold, he just bowed slightly, and said a little unfamiliarly: "I've seen Lord White Tiger." β
Dai Keyheng reminded softly in the back: "Father." β
Duke Baihu was stunned, returned to normal, and smiled at Wang Yan: "Welcome to Mr. Wang Yan and all the top students of Shrek Academy. β
Wang Yan and all the students saluted one after another.
Duke Baihu shook hands with Wang Yan and said, "Everyone, please hurry up, let Ben Shuai talk about the friendship of the landlord." β
Wang Yan smiled slightly, and politely refused: "Lord Duke, you don't need to be polite, we are here to carry out a mission this time." All you have to do is ask your subordinates to provide clues, and we won't bother you. β
Duke Baihu was no longer polite, and nodded: "In that case, Elder Du, you are responsible for receiving everyone." β
The king said with a salute, "Thank you, Lord Duke." β
"Well, let's wait until you're done with your mission."
Duke White Tiger's gaze finally looked at Huo Yuhao, and then he turned around and returned to the camp.
Huo Yuhao watched his figure disappear, his gaze was always cold, and there were not many emotional ups and downs.
Du Lao led everyone to another tent, prepared food for them, and went out to sort out the clues, and before leaving, he seemed to have glanced back at Huo Yuhao.
Du Lao walked out of the camp, and a young white tiger guard who followed him next to him asked curiously: "Du Lao, who was that young man just now?" Why did the Duke have such an expression? β
Du Lao was not angry, but stretched out a finger and nodded at him: "You guys, things related to the duke, don't inquire about what you shouldn't ask." We are here for the Duke, and it would be good for you to know the Duke's secrets? β
"Yes." The young White Tiger Guard didn't ask any more.
In the tent.
Wang Yan said: "Let's rest for three hours first, and when the information arrives, we will set off into the Mingdou Mountain Range." β
After a day's journey, everyone was a little tired.
Wang Dong secretly said to Huo Yuhao: "Yuhao, you actually know the Duke of the White Tiger?" β
Huo Yuhao said lightly: "Isn't it natural to know? It's not like you don't know who I am. β
"But...... But...... Do you know what his attitude was towards you just now? Even Senior Dai Keyheng was so respectful in front of him. How did you...... He...... That's the Duke of the White Tiger! Wang Dong was a little incoherent in surprise.
"Who knows, maybe he feels guilty."
Huo Yuhao walked lightly to the outside of the tent: "I'll go out to blow the wind." β
Wang Dong watched Huo Yuhao's figure disappear blankly, and Xu Sanshi's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Senior Brother Wang Dong, do you also think that Duke White Tiger's attitude was wrong just now?"
Wang Dong nodded hurriedly: "Yes, it's outrageous." I heard that Yu Hao's background was the orphan of the White Tiger Guard, but I didn't expect the White Tiger Duke to be so ...... to him Gentle? β
"The orphan of the White Tiger Guard?" Xu Sanshi looked puzzled, "If you don't talk about this relationship, just the situation just now, I thought Yu Hao was the illegitimate son of Duke White Tiger." β
Dai Keyheng's face changed when he heard this, and he shouted in a low voice: "Xu Sanshi, what are you talking nonsense!" β
There was a hint of anger in his tone. Xu Sanshi realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly shut up.
Ma Xiaotao looked outside the tent, not knowing what she was thinking.
Outside the marshal's tent, the White Tiger Guard was patrolling seriously, but no one noticed that the tent cloth at the entrance of the tent suddenly moved.
Duke White Tiger watched in astonishment as a figure appeared out of thin air in the tent, but he did not call for an enemy attack or prepare for battle.
Huo Yuhao looked at the Duke of the White Tiger and said coldly:
"You're a marshal, can't even solve a group of bandits?"
"Lord White Tiger."
