823: Chapter 823 Hesitation

Bai Kou did not covet the things He Pu left for Xu Huo, at most she was a bit curious.

It so happened that she was passing by District 001 and, following the thod He Pu once taught her, she went to have a look.

However, as soon as she touched the item, she knew it was a fake.

The evidence before her eyes proved that He Pu’s move was to guard against her.

There was nothing more heart-wrenching than this.

Xu Huo could also understand her mindset.

He Pu, both a father and a friend to her, had died of illness without informing her, and most of the items he left behind were given to a complete stranger.

On top of that, he left behind a special puzzle solely for him, completely excluding her—which naturally led to her feeling unbalanced.

As if he had seen through her thoughts, Bai Kou sneered, “Do you think I really care about his life or death?”

“That’s up to you,” Xu Huo said indifferently.

Bai Kou paused for a second, then said, “Killing you, no matter what he intended, would be a waste of effort.”

“It’s not that serious,” Xu Huo said as if they were not discussing his own life or death.

“Secrets are secrets because as few people as possible should know about them.

If the key to 001 is only about sothing between

and He Pu, it’s normal for you not to be told.”

He looked at her, “Why do you need to know about things that have nothing to do with you?”

Bai Kou could not answer; whatever she said, Xu Huo held the upper hand.

After a mont, she sneered, “People with slick tongues usually don’t live long.”

“He Pu is the only common ground between us.

The reason we are sitting here having this conversation is also because of him,” Xu Huo continued.

In other words, if not for He Pu, what else could they talk about?

“That’s true,” Bai Kou said as ripples surged under her feet.

The black water swirled faster and faster until it quickly subrged Xu Huo’s feet.

“But now, I’m tired of hearing excuses made for him.”

“I’m simply stating a fact,” Xu Huo stood in the ntal Space without attempting to leave, calmly looking at her, “Having a fascination with prying into others’ secrets is not a good habit.”

Bai Kou stood up, “Maybe you should be a teacher in your next life.”

As soon as the words fell, her entire being lted into black water, rged into the tidal waves on the ground, and disappeared from sight.

At the sa ti, the spiral staircase that rose under Xu Huo’s feet whisked him away from the range of the black water.

He opened three doors while on the staircase, but each ti he was faced with giant tal chains.

Even on the third attempt, the zipper in front of him was so imnse it could rival a mountain in size.

With such a level of ntal strength, it would be exceedingly difficult for him to “open doors” at his own pace.

So he turned around, picked up the Energy Cannon Bai Kou had given him, and cheerfully said, “This thing should be able to shoot beyond your ntal boundary, right?”

Footsteps erged behind him, but before he could turn around, the black water climbed up his legs, and wherever it covered, he completely lost the ability to move.

Xu Huo stood still and heard the footsteps approaching from behind just as the weight in his hands lightened—the Energy Cannon Barrel had been taken from him.

Against Bai Kou, brimming with the intent to kill, ordinary Props would not work at all.

Luckily, before his arm was enveloped by the black water, Xu Huo pulled out the “Door of Idealism” and reached into it, pushing it open.

A strange power quickly stripped the black water from his body, allowing him to pass through the “Door of Idealism,” but instead of returning to the castle from Bai Kou’s ntal Space, he entered a colossal gear workshop.

In front of the infinitely enlarged gears, he was smaller than the edge of a single tooth of the gear.

Countless gears shed together, forming a giant clock, and within this world, he was as minute as a grain of dust.

This was Xu Huo’s first ti using the “Door of Idealism.” According to the description of the Prop, it could traverse spaces, but whether it crossed into real spaces or ones similar to ntal Spaces was unclear.

He had employed the Prop to test its effectiveness.

Seeing Bai Kou in the distance, he felt that the effect of the Prop was not bad.

However, the other party did not share his good mood and said with an angry laugh, “You’re really sothing, using my ntal Space as a test ground for your Prop!”

Xu Huo chuckled, “If I didn’t do that, I might have been killed.

Show a little understanding.”

“But there’s no point in killing

now.

Why not consider postponing it?”

Bai Kou’s expression grew serious, and she said quite earnestly, “I really do want to kill you.”

“To be held in such high regard by the Eye of Platinum’s little princess, I’m honored.” Xu Huo glanced again at this separate space hidden within her Spiritual World, then said, “Co out when you’ve cooled off.

It’s ti for dinner.”

Bai Kou, looking disgruntled, closed the ntal Space, “I’m not fortunate enough to be the little princess of the Eye of Platinum.”

Xu Huo nodded in understanding, “At least you have a deep connection with the Eye of Platinum.”

Bai Kou couldn’t be bothered to respond, and said to Mr.

Dong approaching her, “Bring my al to my room.”

Mr.

Dong followed with a disgruntled face.

Xu Huo too headed upstairs, and seeing the Girl in the painting and her two friends peering from the second floor, he smiled and said, “I’ll co down after washing my face.”

The dining table, without Bai Kou, was very harmonious.

After dinner, the Girl in the painting took Yan Jiayu to show off her shopping prowess, and Xiao Yuan followed Xu Huo to the study.

The young girl bustled in and out, fetching water and wiping the table for him.

“There’s no need for this; Mr.

Dong will take care of it,” Xu Huo said.

“There’s a school in Zone 011; I’ll take you to do the enrollnt paperwork tomorrow.”

Xiao Yuan said hesitantly, “But I want to stay with you, Master…”

“Start with school,” Xu Huo said.

“Stop calling

Master, from now on you’re my niece in na; use your own na.”

Xiao Yuan understood the difference and nodded slightly, a touch of disappointnt on her face, but she didn’t say any more and left the room.

So ti later, when Mr.

Dong arrived, Xu Huo asked him to open up the castle’s special space.

It was only under the assurance of privacy from the outside world that he took out the Potion found in the doll’s arm.

The light green liquid looked quite soothing, but with this Potion in hand, he could not inject it with ease.

High rewards ant high risks.

He wasn’t worried that the Potion contained poison or that it wasn’t the S-Version Drug because even if those possibilities were true, the risk would be low.

In contrast, if this was an S-Version Drug that Dr.

Wu had tampered with, the risk would be much greater.

Dr.

Wu was not rely an expert in pharmacology; his intention for placing the S-Version Drug might involve laying a groundwork for sothing else, which was hard to say.

However, verifying the Potion would be difficult.

Firstly, deciding when and where to take the Potion out for testing, even a drop, posed a significant risk.

Secondly, considering Dr.

Wu’s expertise, a regular pharmacology expert might not be able to decode it.

Dr.

Deng, who now resided in the Spider Pavilion, was not trustworthy, and the Ga Governnt still had no news of the Perfect Potion.

If the Ga Governnt started production, there would surely be traces exposed.

Placing the syringe on the table, Xu Huo began to contemplate the potential consequences and strategies for handling them.

“Sir, you have a visitor,” Mr.

Dong appeared behind him.
