Chapter 16 Brother Tianmeng
On the outskirts of the Starry Sky Forest, there is a crystal-clear stream.
Huo Yuhao held a sharpened branch in his hand, staring intently at the fish darting away in the stream.
As the light in Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered, the nimble fish's movements appeared to slow down in his eyes.
Aiming at the gills of a bluefish, Huo Yuhao suddenly exerted force with the branch in his hand.
With a "plop," the tip of the branch pierced the gills of the grass carp with perfect accuracy.
With a splash, Huo Yuhao speared a foot-long bluefish out of the water, where it thrashed about on the ground.
However, one bluefish wasn't enough to eat, especially since a certain Pope was watching eagerly right next to Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao, are you done yet? I'm hungry~"
Bibi Dong looked at Huo Yuhao pitifully.
"It'll be ready soon, just a moment!"
Hearing Bibi Dong's urging, Huo Yuhao's hand speed became faster and faster, until finally he even created afterimages with his movements.
In a short while, nearly 10 grass carp of varying sizes were speared onto the shore.
Huo Yuhao immediately took out a large bucket from his storage soul tool and put all the bluefish into it. Then, he began to gut and clean the internal organs of each bluefish.
The knife in Huo Yuhao's hand was a specially made dagger from the Spirit Hall, extremely sharp, making it very easy to scrape off scales or remove gills.
After cleaning up some of the debris, Huo Yuhao began picking out the fish bones.
Picking out fish bones isn't particularly difficult for an experienced chef like Huo Yuhao. Any chef who has practiced for over a decade has excellent knife skills, let alone Huo Yuhao. In terms of knife skills alone, Huo Yuhao is second to none in the entire Douluo Continent.
Bibi Dong, standing to the side, looked at Huo Yuhao with stars in her eyes.
Unexpectedly, this little guy is not only beautiful and has a pleasant voice, but also has such good knife skills. The more I look at him, the more satisfied I become.
Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao had already placed all 10 grilled fish on the grill. The fish were coated inside and out with his own seasoning, and their bellies were stuffed with perilla leaves.
A faint light shone in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and then his hands moved like a blur, constantly flipping the wooden skewers of grilled fish.
In no time, a rich aroma wafted from the grilled fish. Each fish was grilled to a golden brown color and had an extremely crispy exterior.
Bibi Dong, who was standing to the side, couldn't wait any longer. She picked up a grilled fish from the grill, blew on it to cool it down, and gently took a bite.
With a snap, her teeth first bit into the crispy pork skin, and then the smooth, white protein filled her mouth, causing Bibi Dong to let out a satisfied hum.
Mmm, delicious!
Seeing Bibi Dong enjoying her meal so much, Huo Yuhao smiled with satisfaction. For a chef, the best recognition is when the other person quietly finishes the food they've made.
Seeing that Bibi Dong was eating with great gusto, Huo Yuhao also joined the fray. As the two of them ate and drank, the battle quickly came to an end, and Huo Yuhao began to clean up the mess.
However, at this moment, Huo Yuhao's divine sense suddenly sensed a familiar spiritual aura moving towards him.
Feeling the cool aura, Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly, and then he said to Bibi Dong, "Teacher, please conceal your aura."
It should be noted that Bibi Dong's current soul power level has reached level 96, and her combat strength is off the charts. If Tianmeng Ice Silkworm were to sense Bibi Dong's aura, it might be too frightened to come.
After listening to Huo Yuhao's words, Bibi Dong concealed her aura. Although she had questions, she didn't ask them, knowing that Huo Yuhao harbored many secrets.
About half an hour later, a familiar, cheeky voice rang in Huo Yuhao's mind: "Young man, what are you doing in the Star Dou Great Forest? Are you here to look for soul beasts?"
"Yes, I came to the Star Dou Great Forest to find soul beasts."
Huo Yuhao felt a lump in his throat, and then picked up where Tianmeng Ice Silkworm left off.
"Oh, so are you looking for a hundred-year-old soul beast or a thousand-year-old soul beast?"
"None of those are the case. What I'm looking for is the only million-year-old soul beast on the entire Douluo Continent that combines wisdom and handsomeness. It's a handsome and adorable ice silkworm. Do you know where it is?"
Huo Yuhao said, his eyes red.
After Huo Yuhao finished speaking, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm remained still, but Huo Yuhao could sense that it had not left.
Bibi Dong, standing to the side, also narrowed her eyes and stared in the direction of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm. It was a 100,000-year-old soul beast with spiritual power equivalent to that of a Limit Douluo.
"Teacher, don't be nervous, he's one of our own, he won't hurt us."
Bibi Dong glared at Huo Yuhao with annoyance: "You heartless little brat, how many things are you hiding from me?"
Huo Yuhao wisely refrained from responding to Bibi Dong's words. When a woman is in a bad mood, never try to explain to her; explaining is just covering up, and covering up is the truth!
About half an hour later, the ground in front of Huo Yuhao began to crack inch by inch. Then, a round, chubby silkworm emerged, its small eyes curiously sizing up Huo Yuhao.
However, when he saw Bibi Dong standing to the side, he was startled and almost crawled back into the hole. But perhaps sensing that Bibi Dong meant him no harm, and coupled with his genuine curiosity about Huo Yuhao, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm finally calmed down.
"How can a human possess such a strong aura of Brother, and even the auras of Xue Di and Bing Bing? Who exactly are you?"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm tilted its big head, its small eyes filled with great confusion.
Huo Yuhao didn't speak, but instead concentrated his mental energy. Then, a stream of mental energy carrying a cool aura burst forth from Huo Yuhao's fingertips.
"You, you actually know my Heavenly Dream Finger! Who are you?!"
"Brother Tianmeng, it's not something that can be explained in a short time. You should come and see for yourself!"
After Huo Yuhao finished speaking, he slightly mobilized a wisp of his divine sense, merging his memories with Tianmeng Ice Silkworm into a ball of light. Then, the ball of light instantly entered Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's mind.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm slowly used its spiritual power to examine Huo Yuhao's memories.
Time passed second by second, until the setting sun gradually bathed the earth, and Tianmeng Bingcan finally came to her senses.
Tianmeng stretched and lay lazily on the ground, rubbing her round belly: "I haven't eaten in a long time, Yuhao, grill some fish for me."
