Chapter 12 Sometimes being smart isn't a good thing
What is true?
The days they spent together, the experiences they shared, were all real.
But after seeing Tang San and Xiao Wu's childhood cohabitation, recalling Dong'er's Clear Sky Hammer martial soul, the trident symbol of the Sea God on her forehead, and her identity as the young master of the Clear Sky Sect... Huo Yuhao couldn't tell the difference after guessing that Wang Dong'er was their daughter.
If Dong'er is truly the daughter of a god, does her so-called hidden illness really exist? Even if it does, if even a god cannot cure it, can the Acacia Heartbreak Red Cure it?
Was their meeting and falling in love really just a coincidence?
Dong'er was clearly unaware of the truth. It would be truly tragic if Huo Yuhao couldn't even be sure of the sincerity of the person he loved wholeheartedly.
But Niu Tian and Titan didn't seem to know nothing.
Their ability to rise from the dead and appear at the Haotian Sect clearly suggests only one possibility—
Tang San's arrangements.
Why did Tang San do that?
Clearly, Huo Yuhao is the protagonist of the Douluo Continent over the past ten thousand years.
Is it an attempt to win him over? He sends his subordinates to take care of his daughter, hoping she will win his heart through their daily interactions.
That's too arrogant. Under the guise of testing, they're using his love for Dong'er to force him to give up everything.
And in the Valley of Love and Destiny, the person shrouded in a blue-gold halo, isn't that Tang San? And the one who resurrected him was Ning Rongrong? Those countless times of being killed and resurrected, were they tests? What exactly were they testing? Would he break down in extreme pain? Or were they trying to see if he would live on strongly for love?
Of course he was willing to pay any price for Dong'er, but that was because of Dong'er herself, and because of love!
The love is real!
Seeing Huo Yuhao's suddenly blank expression, the little devil jumped off the sofa, somewhat worried: "Did the contents of this book have such a big impact on you?"
Huo Yuhao's lips twitched, but he couldn't manage a smile.
He now somewhat resents his own quick thinking and strong associative abilities.
The little devil didn't ask Huo Yuhao why he had become like this; he simply asked calmly, "What information did you get?"
Getting down to business, Huo Yuhao suppressed his complicated emotions and said seriously, "The book describes events from ten thousand years ago. The era I live in is ten thousand years after Tang San became a god."
"The Spirit Hall became history, and the Heaven Dou Empire split into the Heaven Soul Empire and the Spirit Fighting Empire. Four thousand years ago, another continent called the Sun Moon Continent collided with the Douluo Continent. On it, there was a Sun Moon Empire that was skilled in making soul tools and was very aggressive. Shrek Academy became the number one academy on the continent, and it can be called the strongest force among the two continents and four empires."
Huo Yuhao paused for a moment, then said, "But Shrek Academy did not fully assume the functions of the Spirit Hall. The Soul Hunting Forest disappeared, the Soul Master subsidies disappeared, and evil Soul Masters proliferated."
"Because Tang San planted poisonous herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well of Sunset Forest ten thousand years ago, Sunset Forest has now become a highly poisonous forest, a deadly place for all living things."
"The conflict between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts is intensifying, and the habitats of Soul Beasts are shrinking. It may not be long before a fierce war breaks out between the two races. The Sun Moon Empire has always been eyeing the Douluo Three Kingdoms, and war between humans will come sooner."
"Compared to ten thousand years ago, the only advantage of the Douluo Continent today is that its soul tools are more advanced. On the surface, there is almost no change in the number of top-level 99 experts, while the number of 98 experts is relatively larger."
Ten thousand years ago there were three level 99 Limit Douluo: Qian Daoliu, Tang Chen, and Bo Saixi; now there are also three: Mu En, Long Xiaoyao, and Ye Xishui.
The little devil frowned: "So, you're saying your current situation is beset by both internal and external troubles?"
Huo Yuhao nodded.
"Before I transmigrated here, I was in Qiankun Wenqing Valley, one of the three great treasure basins mentioned in the Xuan Tian Bao Lu. It was located in the western mountains of the Sun Moon Empire, but it was much more dangerous than the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye ten thousand years ago."
"I've passed the first two tests, but the last one is probably the father-in-law testing the prospective son-in-law?" Huo Yuhao couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Anyway, I encountered Tang San. He's blocking my way to the third test, making me try my best to defeat him. Before I came, I kept failing, from being instantly killed in one move at the beginning to being able to last for a few minutes at the end. In short, I couldn't see any hope of winning."
Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and finally said, "The feeling of being killed each time is very clear. My bones are shattered, my flesh is separated, and it feels like my soul is being cut apart... My mental strength is constantly increasing, but Lu Mingfei might not be able to withstand it even once."
"Is it painful?" The little devil lowered his eyes slightly. "Brother is indeed very afraid of pain, but he doesn't need to rely on others. He is actually stronger than anyone else."
"Perhaps, once he leaves this world, free from all constraints, he will only be able to rely on himself..."
It will become a real monster, inside and out.
Huo Yuhao thought about it and realized that the gods in Douluo Continent were only at the surface level, similar to the Dragon King.
If Lu Mingfei can slay dragons, then he should have the potential to slay gods as well, if he so desires.
The little devil snapped out of his daze and raised an eyebrow at Huo Yuhao: "Were you looking like that just now because you couldn't accept a girlfriend from your ancestors?"
Huo Yuhao's lips twitched.
"Dong'er grew up with me. Although I don't know the specifics, she should be about my age," Huo Yuhao explained briefly.
The little devil's expression suddenly became complicated.
Turns out this guy is just like his brother, a hopeless romantic. No wonder they switched places!
But today, the little devil read some other novels, and it seems that the protagonists of these novels are either love-obsessed or sentimental.
The protagonist of a typical romantic relationship might be someone the little devil has only just encountered, seen little of, and hasn't met yet.
"I tried it today. Maybe because I don't have a martial soul, I can't cultivate soul power, but I can cultivate spiritual power. I just don't know how to use this body to use it." Huo Yuhao found it very strange.
He could clearly sense that Lu Mingfei's body possessed immense power, but he felt as if he were bound by chains, unable to use his power under normal conditions, and even struggling to use it under extreme conditions.
This is probably...
Huo Yuhao stared intently at the little devil.
"It seems you've been affected just like your brother."
According to the novel, gods can be compared to dragon kings, but the Black King is not on the same level as the Four Dragon Kings.
Perhaps the God-King can be compared to the Black King?
The little devil's situation is uncertain, since they are from different worlds, and the novel doesn't describe the God King's strength, so their combat power cannot be fully compared.
"Why don't you learn some dragon script first?" the little devil said. "Perhaps you can use some of your brother's power."
"Also, I'm not sure how long you'll stay here. Since you're taking on the responsibility of being an older brother, my plan will continue."
