Chapter 537 The World in Dreams
Xiao Ye No. 4 stopped what he was doing and turned to look in the direction of the laboratory door.
He was still somewhat worried about Huo Yuhao's situation. In his memory, no matter how unpleasant or sad things Huo Yuhao encountered, he would always be the one to confide in.
"Could it be that he encountered something he couldn't solve?" Xiao Ye No. 4 wondered.
Immediately, the image of Wang Dong'er flashed through Xiao Ye No. 4's mind.
After a brief silence, Xiao Ye No. 4 decided to go and see Huo Yuhao.
When Xiao Ye No. 4 opened the laboratory door, Huo Yuhao was no longer in the corridor outside.
"You're moving pretty fast." Xiao Ye No. 4 walked out of the underground laboratory and returned to the surface.
The inner hall was quiet, with few people around; most people were busy with something.
Xiao Ye No. 4 encountered a lazy one.
"Hey, Nanxiao, what a coincidence! The sun is shining brightly today. Want to come and enjoy a sunbath together?" Xu Sanshi, wearing sunglasses, lay on a small hill and waved to Ye Nanxiao.
Xiao Ye No. 4 glanced at Xu Sanshi and noticed him sleeping in the small garden that Bei Bei tended. She asked, "Xu Sanshi, did you see Yuhao just now?"
This guy was lying on the side of the road leading from the underground laboratory back to the surface, so he must have seen Huo Yuhao pass by.
Xu Sanshi adjusted his sunglasses and said, "I just saw Yuhao. He and Wang Dong'er walked towards the outer hall together."
"That young couple is like glue, inseparable all the time. You and Beibei weren't this clingy back then, but I'm quite envious."
Xu Sanshi scratched his head. Although he had successfully confessed his feelings, the girl was clearly not used to him being in her sight all the time.
Xiao Ye No. 4 stopped and stroked his chin. He hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to walk so fast; it was because Wang Dong'er had come to pick him up.
Wouldn't going over there now be disturbing their time together?
"Never mind, I'll look for Yuhao again when I have time tonight." Xiao Ye No. 4 shook his head and turned back to the laboratory.
After Huo Yuhao left, he told Wang Dong'er about his recent nightmares.
Wang Dong'er reached out her small hand and gently placed it on Yuhao's forehead, her clear eyes filled with worry. "Has the workload in District 13 been too heavy lately? Haven't you been getting enough rest?"
Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly. Although his workload was heavy now, it was far less than when he was in Mingde Hall.
After all, being in Mingde Hall also meant enduring mental pressure.
"I don't know, but I've had the same dream for several days in a row, which is very strange." Huo Yuhao took Wang Dong'er's hands and placed them on his face.
Wang Dong'er's small hands were cool and refreshing, which calmed Huo Yuhao's anxious heart.
The power of Hao Dong flowed slowly between the two, and Wang Dong'er's warm soul power enveloped Huo Yuhao, bringing him warmth.
"How about we take a few days off? Professor Fan Yu and Dean Qian will agree. After all, you are the backbone of the Soul Spirit Experiment, and you can't afford to ruin your health," Wang Dong'er said.
Huo Yuhao is the core of the soul spirit experiment, and Qian Duoduo and Fan Yu are eager to dote on him, even personally taking care of his meals and water.
Faced with a soul spirit that could potentially lead the soul master world for the next five hundred years, Shrek Academy has focused all its attention on Huo Yuhao. In terms of diet alone, Teacher Lu Xiao personally took charge.
Elder Mu also instructed Huo Yuhao to visit the Sea God Pavilion every day to personally check on his physical condition.
All of this underscores the importance of the Soul Experiment.
Huo Yuhao instinctively wanted to refuse, but Wang Dong'er didn't give him a chance to speak. She pressed her small hand against Huo Yuhao's lips, frowned, and pouted her red lips slightly. "You're not allowed to refuse! You definitely didn't rest well last night! We're going to the Sea God Pavilion now! If Elder Mu says you're fine, I won't stop you!"
"Dong'er, you've really blocked my escape route. If Elder Mu finds out, he'll definitely force me to rest." Huo Yuhao smiled helplessly, his gaze sweeping over Wang Dong'er's fair forehead.
Wang Dong'er closed her eyes and shook her head, "I won't listen!"
Huo Yuhao's heart softened instantly when he saw his girlfriend's adorable appearance. He gently rubbed Wang Dong'er's chubby cheeks and said, "Alright then, we haven't gone to see Elder Mu at the Sea God Pavilion yet today."
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's agreement, Wang Dong'er happily swung her hand in Huo Yuhao's.
"Let's go, let's go, hurry up." Wang Dong'er spread her wings, came behind Huo Yuhao, hugged him, and flew into the sky.
"Dong'er, actually I have a flying soul tool," Huo Yuhao said somewhat awkwardly.
"I know, but I'd rather hold you in my arms," Wang Dong'er said playfully.
Huo Yuhao felt a warm and soft sensation on his back and quickly looked down to check the route.
Wang Dong'er kept an eye on Huo Yuhao, and naturally noticed his shy reaction.
"Hehe, Sister Tao's method really works!"
She has a hobby: she enjoys watching Huo Yuhao's shy expressions. This hobby developed when they lived in the same dormitory. Coincidentally, Ma Xiaotao also has this hobby.
Having found a kindred spirit, Ma Xiaotao readily shared her experience.
The two soon arrived at the Sea God Pavilion and met Elder Mu.
Hearing that Huo Yuhao was not in good condition, Elder Mu smiled and took Huo Yuhao's hand, his rich light-attribute soul power rippling through Huo Yuhao's body like water.
Elder Mu also gathered the light particles in the room. A sea of light gently pattered against the walls of the room.
Huo Yuhao felt as if he had fallen into a hot spring. The warm and bright sunlight shone on his eyelids, making his vision a warm red. He could hear the sound of the wind rustling the leaves and the waves gently lapping against the beach.
The great relaxation of his mind allowed Huo Yuhao to quickly enter a deep sleep.
Elder Mu released his soul power, enveloping Huo Yuhao who was lying on his lap, making him float up, and handed him to Wang Dong'er. "Dong'er, the second room on the upper floor, that's the room with the most concentrated golden tree energy. Let Yuhao get a good sleep there."
"Yuhao may be under a lot of psychological pressure lately. After all, this child's heart is full of great love, but this matter of the soul is not something he can resolve overnight." Old Mu's face showed a rare look of worry.
Wang Dong'er bowed to Elder Mu and carried Huo Yuhao up to the third level of the Golden Tree.
Upon arriving at the room mentioned by Elder Mu, Wang Dong'er gently placed Huo Yuhao on a large sofa in the room. She then moved a cushion over, sat down beside the sofa, and gazed at Huo Yuhao's sleeping face, feeling a sense of contentment in her heart.
She then sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.
Dense light particles danced slowly in the room. The Golden Tree, according to legend, was found by Tang San, an ancestor of Shrek Academy, and transplanted there by great effort.
Particles of light struck Huo Yuhao and merged into his body.
The coconut palms and golden beach made Huo Yuhao feel extremely relaxed. He stood on the beach, bent down to pick up two stones, and threw them into the sea with a little force.

Huo Yuhao felt the gentle breeze in his dream, and the corners of his mouth turned up in a smile.
"Sunbathing is indeed a comfortable thing, no wonder Ni Jiang likes sunbathing so much." Huo Yuhao lay on the beach, feeling the coolness of the waves on his legs.
Huo Yuhao sighed for a moment, then got up and walked along the coastline.
He wanted to take advantage of his rare lucidity to dream and see what kind of world his dream world was like.
After walking along the coastline for a while, Huo Yuhao spotted a small bottle floating on the sea.
"A message in a bottle? I never thought this would appear in my dream." Huo Yuhao became interested, walked into the sea, and picked up the bottle.
Pouring out the small piece of paper from the bottle, Huo Yuhao discovered it was a map, but it only showed a magnified view of a local area that he didn't recognize.
Turn the paper over; on the back, it says "Confused and puzzled, no inspiration" and there's a seashell pattern in the lower left corner.
"Fortune teller? How could such a thing appear in my dream?" Huo Yuhao's face was full of doubt. He was a true pioneer in the struggle with soul tools and did not worship metaphysics.
The pattern on the note caught Huo Yuhao's attention.
"Nautilus? The legendary sea spirit beast?" Huo Yuhao recognized the conch pattern as belonging to a powerful spirit beast from the depths of the sea. A small fragment of the Nautilus was kept in Shrek Academy's treasure vault.
"Eek~"
A strange noise made Huo Yuhao look up. He saw a small white fox sitting on the beach, watching him.
"A white fox!" Huo Yuhao's pupils dilated in shock. The beginning of his previous dream was a scene of a white fox watching him.
Under Huo Yuhao's gaze, the white fox slowly grew larger, its limbs stretched out, and it transformed into human form.
This time, Huo Yuhao saw the face opposite him clearly; it was Ye Nanxiao's face.
Ye Nanxiao stared quietly at Huo Yuhao, his scarlet fox eyes seemingly flowing with blood.
Huo Yuhao felt a chill run down his spine, and he became agitated, wanting to break free from the dream and wake up.
At this moment, Ye Nanxiao spoke up, saying, "Yuhao, I am very disappointed in you. I have always been disappointed. You are still not qualified."
Huo Yuhao was stunned, staring at the "Ye Nanxiao" in front of him in disbelief, and subconsciously replied, "Hey...why?"
Suddenly, the world began to spin, and coconut trees, beaches, blue seas, and skies all turned to ashes and disappeared. Only Ye Nanxiao's bright red, blood-red fox eyes scrutinized everything.
Huo Yuhao suddenly opened his eyes and saw a golden ceiling with dense light particles floating in the air.
"Dong'er?" Huo Yuhao turned his head and saw Wang Dong'er sitting cross-legged in meditation.
Sensing that Huo Yuhao had woken up, Wang Dong'er immediately ended her cultivation state. "Yuhao, you're awake! How are you feeling?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao suddenly recalled Ye Nanxiao's blood-red fox eyes, filled with ferocity, killing intent, and icy coldness. The tangible killing intent made him feel a pang of sadness.
Not wanting Wang Dong'er to worry, Huo Yuhao had no choice but to lie and say, "I feel a little better."
"That's great! We should go and thank Elder Mu!" Wang Dong'er said, standing up.
Huo Yuhao's eyes widened slightly. "That's right, Elder Mu!"
He had to ask Old Man Mu about the world in his dreams and the Nautilus.
