Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 310 Huo Yuhao's Disaster Day

Ignoring Kong Deming's sarcasm, Lin Po followed his gaze and looked at the four people who were practicing passionately and enthusiastically on the training field.

As time went on, he felt something was off, and his expression became increasingly strange.

Leaving aside Ye Guyi, this angelic girl, she was at least a promising talent he had been searching for for a long time.

With careful nurturing, it is not impossible to rebuild the angelic position, thereby increasing the spiritual foundation.

But what's going on with this orange?
Xu Tianran had long since been reduced to nothing by herself, and without that crippled person's recommendation, she still had the opportunity to join the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Group.

That's not all; she even managed to rise to the position of commander in just a few months, rain or shine.

Such a bizarre development cannot be explained by the word 'ability' alone.

If there wasn't something fishy going on, only a fool would believe it!
Especially when rewarding meritorious officials after the war, Empress Moon Soul specially dispatched Wu Yun and Moon Soul Guards to collect information on Ju Zi's promotion path in just a few months.

The conclusion reached was 'everything is normal'.

If there's anything amiss, it's only the source of her military merits each time.

They discovered that the grain supplies had caught fire three times, captured Star Luo assassins five times, and used a level-five soul tool to launch a frontal sneak attack, killing two Star Luo Soul Saints.

The most outrageous thing was that on two separate occasions, they detected intelligence about the Star Luo army's attack without any of the scouts on the border noticing.

With that kind of luck, why the hell are you even a soldier? If you want revenge, just stride into the Star Luo Army camp and summon a meteorite, wouldn't that be much better?

There's no need to go through all that trouble!

However, when Lin Po learned about the subsequent developments from the women, he instantly realized who was behind it all.

So it turns out that it was Douluo Star's true form that came out to cause trouble again, randomly pairing up the dolls he had chosen with someone else!
Back then, after the Sun Moon Empire broke through the Star Luo border without lifting a finger, Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger naturally fell into Huo Yuhao's hands.

But among the heroes present, he wasn't the only one who had a grudge against Dai Hao; this orange did too!

So here's the question: there's only one Dai Hao, how do you divide him between two people?
Are you suggesting we cut him in half at the waist?

Absolutely not!
Unfortunately, both of them are incredibly stubborn, neither willing to yield to the other!

Even after explaining their situations to each other, Huo Yuhao felt sorry for Ju Zi's plight, and Ju Zi felt sorry for Huo Yuhao's background, but in the end, neither of them was willing to give in.

Moreover, as time went on, the situation escalated, almost turning into a conflict between Mingde Hall and the Fire Phoenix Soul Guidance Legion.

The situation only calmed down after Empress Moon Soul arrived to mediate the conflict and offered a reasonable suggestion.

As for the process and outcome of the event, no one knows.

However, judging from the laughter and chatter they uttered after leaving the secret room, their relationship seemed to be very good; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as extremely close.

Clearly, something unknown has happened.

What follows is the usual plot progression from the original work.

Huo Yuhao grills fish → Ju Zi eats the fish and says, "It tastes like Dad's" → Their relationship develops at supersonic speed, the process is exactly the same.

Furthermore, the release and liberation after personally killing the enemy made the emotional development much faster than in the original work!
So much so that Huo Yuhao, who was still on the battlefield, was quite content and forgot all about the pink and blue-haired girl waiting for him at home.

It wasn't until he stepped into Mingdu that he remembered this extremely critical matter.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

Wang Dong'er, who was always keeping a close eye on battlefield intelligence, would never miss the opportunity to welcome her lover, and would definitely be waiting outside Mingdu early in the morning.

Then, by sheer coincidence, she witnessed Ju Zi kissing Huo Yuhao goodbye, which caused her to explode on the spot.

Fortunately, Wang Dong'er's remaining rationality compelled her to take the adulterous couple away from the scene; otherwise, a bloody incident might have occurred on the day of her triumphant return.

The scene that followed was so horrific that no one witnessed it firsthand.

Furthermore, the incident occurred at the Confucius Mansion, making it impossible for ordinary people to know the cause and effect.

However, according to a female official surnamed Han, after that domestic violence incident, the young man surnamed Huo was bedridden for three months before he could barely get out of bed and move around, which was quite miserable.

Even now, the young man, who aspires to emulate a certain Lin-surname elder brother, still has several wounds from the greatswords that are spurting blood.

Thinking of this, Lin Po burst out laughing, which drew frequent glances from Kong Deming.

"Tsk tsk, Yuhao is quite lucky with women. He manages to pick up a girl every time he goes to the battlefield."

"But if you want to learn from me, you need to practice more; you're far from good enough."

These self-talks, when they reached Kong Deming's ears, made him so angry that he couldn't catch his breath and coughed repeatedly.

"You brat, you've corrupted Yuhao! You haven't even settled things at home, and you dare to run off and flirt with other women. You deserved to be badly injured by my disciple!" "Poor disciple, why did she have to fall for him!"

Lin Po laughed heartily upon hearing this, feeling not ashamed but rather proud, and looked at the figure wielding the greatsword in the arena with even greater satisfaction.

"You've gone to great lengths, old man. Dong'er's swordsmanship is very similar to that of the Sword Douluo of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. What, did you really go and kidnap her?"

"He stabbed eighteen times in a row, each strike avoiding vital points; what a skillful technique."

"Hmph! Are you allowed to give Yuhao special treatment, but I'm not allowed to bring in outside help for my disciple? What kind of logic is that!"

Kong Deming rolled his eyes at Lin Po, then casually unleashed a burst of soul power, stopping the four people on the training field.

"My disciples, come here! Your most admired Emperor has arrived, and he has gifts for you!"

"Hmm? You're not being very fair, are you!"

"What? A dignified deity visits a junior without bringing a gift? How shameful!"

Just pinch it!
When did this old man become so strange and unpredictable?
At the same time, Ye Guyi, the fastest of them all, landed in front of the two of them, her eyes sparkling as she stared at Lin Po, her pretty face filled with satisfaction.

Lin Po: “.”

What's up with this girl? Does she genuinely admire me, or is she trying to get ahead by sabotaging me?
So hard to guess!

A few seconds later, Huo Yuhao, panting heavily, ran up to Lin Po, carrying Wang Dong'er who was holding 'Frostmourne' in front and Ju Zi, who was fully armed with a soul tool on her back.

Then, as always, he flashed a simple, goofy smile.

At this moment, Lin Po really wanted to kick this idiot in front of him away.

There's no other reason than it's too risqué and embarrassing!
When exactly did this child get spoiled? I have no recollection!

"Yuhao."

"What's wrong, Brother Lin? Is there something you need Yuhao to do?"

The boy's overly piercing gaze left Lin Po speechless, and all the words he wanted to say were swallowed back down his throat.

"It's okay, as long as you're not tired."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao didn't react much, but Wang Dong'er, who was clinging to him, blushed and quickly pulled away.

"Brother Lin, you're bullying me! I still can't beat Yuhao even with Frostmourne!"

"Ju Zi, Vice Commander of the Fire Phoenix Soul Guidance Legion, greets Emperor Moon Soul."

At this point, the difference in quality is immediately apparent.

Ju Zi was very smart. She didn't try to get close to Lin Po just because of her relationship with Huo Yuhao. She behaved in a very polite manner.

His initial little schemes were also well-considered and did not arouse any disgust from others.

On the other hand, Wang Dong'er is an innocent and cheerful girl who is intelligent but doesn't use it.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Kong Deming, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally spoke up, easing the awkward atmosphere.

"Come, line up in a row, so the Emperor can give you gifts."

As soon as he finished speaking, four beautiful young men and women stood in a row, their eyes fixed intently on Lin Po.

"Sigh, I'm going to lose money when I go out. Alright, here you go, one for each of us, no fighting."

"The items are similar: cultivation techniques, soul bones, and immortal herbs. You can ask Yuhao how to use them."

Seeing this, Lin Po couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, casually tossing out four storage soul tools that he had prepared beforehand.

Upon hearing this, the four of them swept their spiritual energy over the storage soul tool and were so frightened that they immediately flung the soul tool away.

"Brother Lin, isn't this gift a bit too expensive?"

Huo Yuhao's voice was unanimously recognized by everyone present. Even Kong Deming couldn't contain his shock after taking a look at the soul tool.

"Such a large quantity of Soul Bone Immortal Grass, you're really generous!"

"So-so. Given my personal abilities, things like soul bones and immortal herbs are worthless to me. I can have as many as I want. It's just right to give them to Yuhao and the others to improve their strength."

"Yuhao, you didn't want to be unable to help me in the final battle, did you?"

Now, the same scenario repeats itself.
