Douluo Dalu: Immortal Dragon Clan

Chapter 178 The Sky Curtain is Formed: Thank you, Buddha Tang, for sending us the lucky siblings!
Late night
Huo Yutong lay in the tent prepared by Mo Yan, seemingly lost in thought. Huo Yuhao sat by the stream, gazing at the moon's reflection in the water, his mind blank. He never imagined that his and his sister's lives had been arranged from the very beginning.

His loss of control was related to a legendary deity? But he and his sister were of mediocre talent, so what exactly was the deity plotting?
If it weren't for Brother Fang Yuan blocking the fatal blow for his sister today, she probably would have remembered what Mo Yan said about Fang Yuan already... Huo Yuhao felt a bitter taste rise in his throat.

Self-reproach washed over him like a tidal wave. He shouldn't have trusted Tianmeng and that mysterious voice. The voice in his mind disappeared after he made that wrong decision, which said it all.

Huo Yuhao stared blankly at the sky, unsure how to explain to his sister, or how to face Mo Yan and her family. If he died, would that solve everything?
He sat there all alone, with no one to confide in, and the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in his spiritual sea seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

"Are you feeling guilty?" A voice sounded from behind. Huo Yuhao turned around and saw Jin Tianming standing behind him. He couldn't help but say, "I'm sorry, senior, I..."

“No need to apologize to me. Mortals who are tricked by the gods have no way to resist.” Jin Tianming walked to Huo Yuhao’s side, looked at the small fish swimming quickly in the stream, and said, “Besides, this is his choice, and Mo Yan and I have no way to interfere.”

"Then you must have enough strength to save him, right, senior?" Huo Yuhao had already made progress, and he didn't believe that the senior in front of him couldn't save Fang Yuan.

As for why he had such thoughts, after receiving the powerful spiritual assistance of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, the feeling he got from Jin Tianming beside him was like that of a giant dragon, inspiring awe in all living beings and making him feel fear and unease.

The person in front of me is definitely not an ordinary Soul Master.

"Mo Yan should have told you that you and your siblings have the aura of gods, right?"

"Correct."

“We originally intended to slowly investigate the divine power within you. If you were friendly, we wouldn’t interfere, as this was an opportunity for you. However, that deity chose to use extreme methods to attack your sister.”

Jin Tianming explained, "Fang Yuan also chose to solve the problem in an extreme way; that was his choice!"

The truth is, if that voice didn't threaten them, they would have simply ignored it.

Unfortunately, there are no hypotheticals in reality. The owner of that voice was none other than Tang San. Although it is unclear when Tang San cast the curse on Huo Yuhao, this matter must be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise it may cause unnecessary trouble.

"Then why didn't you kill me?" Huo Yuhao asked the question that puzzled him the most. In his mind, if he died, the gods might stop watching his sister, and she could grow up happily.

“Because,” Jin Tianming looked down at Huo Yuhao and said cruelly, “your death will become the very reason why your sister is targeted by that deity.”

"!!!"

Upon hearing this answer, Huo Yuhao's mind went blank for a moment. The words that were on the tip of his tongue remained unspoken.

What kind of deity is this? Why is it so fixated on him and his sister?

That damned deity is just as repulsive as the White Tiger Duke's mansion!
Jin Tianming stared at Huo Yuhao, who was radiating intense killing intent and hatred, with his golden eyes. After a moment of thought, he still spoke up to remind him: "Don't let hatred cloud your mind. Weakness is the original sin. Only by becoming stronger can you control your own destiny."

"Then what should I do?"

Huo Yuhao knew that the person in front of him, or rather his family, might need him, but he had no complaints. This was because Fang Yuan, the eldest brother of this family, had saved his sister, and if he could repay him with his own life, he would not hesitate.

Now he only has his sister left, and he's almost completely destitute.

The campfire crackled as Mo Yan was grilling meat when Huo Yutong suddenly lifted the tent flap and came out. She sat down beside Mo Yan and asked urgently, "What can I do to gain your approval and avenge Brother Fang Yuan?" Mo Yan put down his grilling fork and looked Huo Yutong up and down with interest. "Are you sure you've thought this through?"

She originally thought Huo Yutong would need to think about it all night before making a decision, but she didn't expect him to give her an answer so quickly.

"That's right! Only by becoming stronger can I find that bastard who possessed my brother and kill him with my own hands!"

Huo Yutong had just sorted out all the clues in the tent. Her and her brother's tragic lives were very likely manipulated by that deity in secret; even if it didn't directly manipulate them, that deity must have done something.

That damned god, instead of being a proper god, he treats them, brother and sister, like toys to be played with.

She must become stronger, then storm the realm of gods and tear that despicable god to pieces!

Looking at Huo Yutong, who was completely different from before, Mo Yan sighed inwardly. It was truly remarkable that a single death had transformed this girl.
"Want my approval? It's not that simple. Are you sure you want to go down this path?" Mo Yan's lips curled into a mocking smile.

She narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing the seemingly fragile yet stubborn girl before her with an almost amusement: "You should know that you're making a deal with the devil right now."

"I'm sure!" Huo Yutong's pupils burned with intense flames.

Seeing this, Mo Yan's smile widened: "It seems that Fang Yuan has finally done something worthwhile."

"Go and get some rest first. We'll talk to your brother tomorrow about your future plans." Mo Yan waved his hand, his tone carrying an undeniable air of affection.

"Yes," Huo Yutong hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Go to sleep, sweetie." Mo Yan reached out and ruffled her hair, his fingertips brushing against a stray strand of hair ruffled by the night breeze.

“Okay.” The girl lowered her eyelids, her eyelashes casting dappled shadows beneath her eyes.

Huo Yutong had no choice but to obediently turn around and walk towards the tent. The twilight washed over her thin shoulders, like a silent sea.

Mo Yan looked at Huo Yutong, who had gone back to her tent to sleep, and a look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes. Although he had tricked these two little guys, it was for their own good. Joining Tang San's camp was not as good as joining his side.

They at least treat their companions as human beings, but Tang San might not.

In the God Realm, Tang San was practically driven mad with anger. He continued to observe the Underworld, but still couldn't find any trace of Fang Yuan's soul. This situation was as if he had seen a ghost.

The only possibility is that Fang Yuan may not have truly died, but how could that be?
Nowadays on Douluo Star, even the most outstanding healing-type Soul Masters have no chance of pulling someone whose heart has been damaged back from the brink of death!

"This damned family, could they also be inheritors of some god's legacy? Has the Douluo Continent already approached them for cooperation?"

Tang San's super-intelligent brain began to work at high speed, and doubts grew wildly like vines. The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed!
"No, if that's really the case!" Tang San took a deep breath and looked at the Seagod Island that had just been opened a few days ago. It was probably time for the divine consciousness he had left on the Seagod Island to come in handy.

"Heh. Douluo Continent, you are indeed clever enough to know how to save yourself, but this time, I will use this divine consciousness clone to tell you that what kind of chosen one will ultimately be defeated by my divine consciousness!"

Ten thousand years ago, he was able to slay two gods; this time, this divine consciousness clone can accomplish the same feat!
