Douluo: Dragon King Huo Yuhao Lives Ten Thousand Years Later

Chapter 164 Tang San's Divine Sense: Home in Danger, Return Immediately!

In the kitchen, Rachel Gu, wearing a blue apron, hummed her favorite song as she simmered fish soup.

This was an opportunity she got after making a deal with Huo Yuhao; the kitchen was hers tonight.

After all, she had gone a bit too far today, and the Lord was very angry. She had to become the "god" in charge of the kitchen in order to appease the Lord.

Gu Yuena sat on the sofa, looking towards the kitchen, somewhat conflicted.

She wanted to teach Rachel a lesson, but the other woman always managed to find the right balance, leaving her somewhat helpless.

After thinking for a while, Gu Yuena, smelling the aroma of fish soup, finally looked away.

Never mind, she hasn't tasted Rachel's flavor in a long time.

"Yuhao, what are your assessment criteria?" Gu Yuena asked Huo Yuhao beside her.

Huo Yuhao's expression was complicated: "Initially, it was a challenge, simulating the Star Dou Great Forest... and finally, it was a battle against a former tower master."

Seeing his strange expression, Gu Yuena asked curiously, "Does that tower master have some special abilities?"

"Not really, she's just showing affection to her spirit."

Huo Yuhao's situation is complicated.

After the users of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill began to "gaze deeply into each other's eyes" during battle, an even stranger phenomenon occurred. The overall feel of the battles suddenly seemed off.

"..."

Gu Yuena blinked, coughed lightly, and changed the subject, "Yuhao, are Xiaoyan and the others coming too?"

"Well, that's about it. The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy is about to start recruiting students, and Xiao Yan and the others should be coming soon."

Huo Yuhao pushed the cut fruit in front of her, "The housing issue has been arranged by headquarters."

"You're moving out?"

Rachel peeked out from the kitchen and shouted excitedly:

"That's fantastic! I give it a big thumbs up!"

He seemed to feel a strange chill halfway through his sentence, and his voice abruptly stopped.

Gu Yuena glared at her "sister," then looked at Huo Yuhao and asked softly, "Yuhao, are you really going to move out?"

Huo Yuhao gazed at Gu Yuena's slightly tense profile and suddenly chuckled softly:
"When did I say I was moving out? I just arranged it for them. Unless... someone doesn't want me to continue living here?"

Gu Yuena's ear tips turned slightly red, and she turned her face away, saying, "Whatever you say."

Seeing her unusual reaction, Huo Yuhao chuckled and looked away, turning on the Soul Guiding Light Screen to search for various research projects through the internal network.

He has already joined the Soul Guidance Research Institute at headquarters, and because of his secondary profession level and the invitation from Mingde Hall, he immediately gained an initial status on par with Ling Zichen upon joining the Soul Guidance Research Institute.

More importantly, as a key candidate Spirit Transmission Envoy cultivated by the Spirit Transmission Tower, this identity grants him a special status, making him higher than Ling Zichen in overall standing. If research requires personnel assistance, he can coordinate work and assign tasks to her.

In other words, in a sense, Ling Zichen was indeed his subordinate.

Huo Yuhao wouldn't make things difficult for the other party, but since he was a genius in soul guidance, he should naturally make the best use of his talents and resources.

His research also needs people, and right now, the only researcher he knows at headquarters is Ling Zichen. So don't blame him; he just stumbled upon this situation himself.

After sending several research tasks to Ling Zichen on the soul-guided light screen, Huo Yuhao paused on the names of the juniors at headquarters, finally settling on another somewhat familiar name. After assigning her to his own team, he looked at Gu Yuena and said, "Na'er, I've also transferred you to my team. Is that alright?"

Gu Yuena was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly and smiled, "Of course."

On the other hand, Ling Zichen couldn't remain calm after opening the Soul Guidance Screen and seeing that he had an extra batch of tasks.

As Leng Yaozhu's disciple, Gu Yuena could refuse such personnel transfers; Leng Yaozhu could simply give the order. However, Ling Zichen couldn't. This was because no one of higher status behind her would speak up. "The next Tower Master"—Huo Yuhao's first transfer order as a candidate Spirit Transmission Envoy—had to be given some face.

"Huo Yuhao, you privilege-obsessed bastard, I'll never forgive you!"

In the still of the night, Ling Zichen's roar was like a thunderclap, shaking the glass windows of the laboratory.

……

While Huo Yuhao was becoming a candidate Spirit Transmission Envoy, Tang Wulin was preparing to break through the second layer of the seal at the Spirit Transmission Tower branch of Heaven Dou City.

Tang Wulin wanted to complain about the creator of the seal.

According to "Old Tang," the second seal can be broken before the age of fifteen. He broke through the first seal at around the age of ten, giving him a full five years to prepare.

However, no matter how early he breaks through, once the second seal is broken, he will only have three years to break through the seal again.

In other words, there is absolutely no benefit to breaking through ahead of time!

It's strange. According to the usual pattern, shouldn't he have had more time to recover after breaking through ahead of time?

Besides the time issue, there is another problem.

If his physical strength increases to a certain level, the seal will loosen on its own until it can no longer be suppressed.

That's the situation now.

These past two years, Teacher Xiong Jun and everyone at the Spirit Pagoda have been feeding him too well... He really can't control himself anymore!
For this breakthrough, he didn't even need the rare and precious materials that Old Tang specified, because his body could completely withstand that power!

Upon entering the sealed space, Tang Wulin whispered:

"Old Tang, I'm ready."

In the corner, a blurry figure gradually solidified into a form.

When Tang San's consciousness emerged, his eyes were somewhat dazed. He was about to listen to Tang Wulin's teachings to the "Golden Dragon King" as usual.

But seeing Tang Wulin's strange gaze, she realized after thinking about it carefully that Wulin had come to break the seal today!
"Good, good, Wu Lin, you've taken another step further away from danger."

Tang San almost burst into tears of joy.

Do you know how he got through the past two years?
Every night, he had to endure Tang Wulin reciting "The Admonitions of the First Tower Master" for half an hour, those words slowly wearing down his spiritual power like a dull knife. By now, he didn't even know how many memories he had lost.

Sometimes he even had a fleeting feeling that he really was "Old Tang," the one who received the teachings of the first Tower Master...

Tang San felt a chill run down his spine.

What teachings of the first tower master? That's just brainwashing from the enemy!

It wasn't enough that the other party had brainwashed Wu Lin; now they've even extended their evil claws to his wisp of divine consciousness!
With a heavy heart, Tang San began to guide Tang Wulin in breaking through the seal, watching him sit cross-legged in the center of the sealed space, his brows furrowed deeply.

"If it weren't for the influence of the Spirit Pagoda, how could Wu Lin have become such a grotesque figure? Huo Yuhao truly has a way of courting death..."

Tang San paused in thought.

That being said, what is the path to death? What is the definition of the path to death?
It should be related to my past life, the Tang Clan... the Xuan Tian Bao Lu... the admonitions of the first tower master.

As he recalled the book title that had troubled him, Tang San's expression darkened.

No, too many memories of his past life, the memories that defined his nature, have disappeared. If this continues, he will really "lose his memory," and his personality may even change drastically, influenced by the so-called "first tower master's admonitions."

However, Wu Lin was being targeted by the Spirit Pagoda and those ferocious beasts, and the wisp of his divine consciousness attached to Tang Wu Lin was really unable to move...

My home is in danger, I must return immediately!
