Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 315 Tang Ya's Ending
Lin Po's casual promise left Huo Yuhao and the other three looking at each other in bewilderment, none of them daring to be the first to raise their doubts.

Do not make jokes.

The extremely morbid and psychologically damaging arrangement just now is not something a cheerful person would do.

Tsk tsk, two good brothers turned against each other with swords for love, half-brothers fought to the death, and the grudges and entanglements of two dynasties' remnants for more than ten years.
Which one of them seems like an idea that a decent person would come up with?

On the other hand, Lin Po was both amused and exasperated when he noticed Huo Yuhao and the others' unusual behavior. He immediately flicked each of them on the head, making them gasp in pain.

He was in a rare good mood, so he gave his underlings a chance to answer their questions.

Instead of asking questions, you're getting stuck on this.

Moreover, I don't think I've ever put on airs before, so how did I end up in their minds an image of being imposing, domineering, and difficult to talk to?
"Are you guys thinking something really rude? Do you need me to read your mind?"

"No need for you to trouble yourself! We're just thinking about what questions to ask! After all, this is a rare opportunity, and we can't let it go to waste!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the four of them shouted in unison, their expressions filled with terror.

Given his penchant for seeking amusement all day long, he might actually do something outrageous like eavesdropping on people's thoughts!
Before long, Tang Ya was the first to compose herself.

He then took a deep breath, and in the blink of an eye, the confusion and panic on his face were completely replaced by determination and resilience.

"Your Majesty, Tang Ya has a few questions for you!"

The familiar yet unfamiliar voice made Lin Po look at this ill-fated Soul Master with great curiosity.

She explained the root of her problem in just a few words.

"Hmm? What questions could you possibly have? About the Tang Sect? The Mysterious Heaven Skill? Evil Soul Masters? Or perhaps... your ancestor Tang San?"

Such repeated questions forced Tang Ya's once rosy face to turn pale instantly.

She felt that everything about herself was laid bare in the eyes of this young man.

Fortunately, his innate stubbornness was no less than that of Huo Yuhao and the others, so he was able to muster the courage to speak again.

"Your Majesty, were you the black-robed man who appeared in the Star Dou Great Forest and blocked Bei Bei and me back then?"

"Hmm, good question! I don't think anyone has told you about this. It seems that apart from being a bit stubborn, you're not completely stupid."

Upon hearing this, Lin Po smiled even more brightly, eagerly anticipating what unexpected surprise Tang Ya would bring him.

However, Tang Ya's irrelevant response was tantamount to admitting it.

This caused the girl's expression to grow increasingly bitter, but at the same time, it brought a strange sense of relief to her heart.

"Was the person you blocked behind me from getting close to Huo Yuhao?"

"That's right, it's Yuhao. Also, please let me know if you have any other questions, so I don't have to respond to each one individually."

"...Alright! Is the Tang Sect really beyond saving? Is the Mysterious Heaven Skill truly incomplete? Was Tang San's character really as rumored on the continent?"

"."

Listening to the girl's almost frantic questions, before Lin Po could react, Huo Yuhao frowned repeatedly.

The little bit of goodwill I had for her vanished in an instant.

However, out of respect for his elder brother, Huo Yuhao couldn't bring himself to teach her a lesson on the spot.

I could only stand silently to the side and continue to listen to their conversation.

"Since you can ask these questions, it means you already had the answers. What? You're still not giving up and want to get the answers from me?"

"Yes! Of all the people in the world, only you can answer these questions for me!"

As the shouts dissipated, Tang Ya suddenly exuded a fearless and dauntless aura, which amazed Lin Po.

"I could answer you, but what would I get out of you?"

"Tang Ya is now penniless and weak. Her withered and fallen body is not worthy of the Emperor's attention. Therefore, she only has a worthless life left! I hope the Emperor will grant her request!"

Lin Po: “.”

Holy crap? This doesn't sound like something Tang Ya would say! Has her persona collapsed?
This girl went out into the wind and rain, went through a lot, and came back with a rather drastic change, didn't she?

Besides, you'll be the one who ultimately benefits from this request!
"Forget it, you can keep your little life for the New Holy Church to shine. I have no use for you."

"But their attitude was quite good, which deserves praise."

"As for your question, I'll only answer you with one word: 'Yes!'"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Po looked at Tang Ya with great interest, waiting for her next reaction.

The result was exactly as Lin Po had predicted.

After receiving the final answer, Tang Ya's aura shifted several times, with sadness, despair, pain, and all other negative emotions converging around her.

The dark blue soul power was also surging violently within the small space around her, and it looked like it was about to force her to fall back into the evil soul master.

"Brother Lin?"

“Yuhao, you’re going to be someone who leads an army in the future. You can’t be this impetuous. Besides, he’s a rare talent, so we should give him a chance.” Suddenly, Tang Ya, who was in the center of the barrier, seemed to hear Lin Po’s expectation. Her previously turbulent blue-black soul power instantly stopped.

Then she slowly absorbed it into her body.

At the same time, the negative emotions in the girl's heart completely dissipated.

In terms of emotional color alone, it was even much cleaner than Huo Yuhao's.

"Not bad, he has some potential. After the wedding, go find Wuyun yourself, and he will arrange your cultivation and the issue of your evil soul power."

"Thank you for your generous gift, Your Majesty."

After saying that, Tang Ya, who was exhausted, could no longer maintain her posture and collapsed to the ground with a thud.

"Tsk, the only thing that hasn't changed is that he's still as stubborn as a mule."

Seeing this, Lin Po chuckled softly, then turned to look at Jiang Nannan.

"It's your turn, Nannan?"

"I'm here! Your Majesty! Um, what if Xu Sanshi really wins?"

"Hmm? Do I look like the kind of person who would be so generous as to push his subordinates away?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nannan's face lit up with joy, and the huge weight on her heart was finally lifted.

"Nannan has been rude! I beg Your Majesty to punish me!"

"Sigh, what can I say to you? Go back now. Vina must be incredibly busy while you're gone. Oh, and remember to take Tang Ya with you. It's not right to leave her in the Emperor's mansion."

"Yes! Nan Nan will go right away!"

The next second, two rabbit ears flashed past everyone's eyes, and Jiang Nannan and Tang Ya disappeared from the Emperor's Mansion in the blink of an eye.

Clearly, this wasn't the first time the rabbit girl had used her teleportation skill.

"This level of proficiency... how does Vina usually train her?"

Seeing this, Lin Po couldn't help but twitch his lips and said with a slightly helpless expression.

"That's good, teleportation makes working more efficient."

Immediately afterwards, he shifted his gaze to the last girl present, looked her up and down, and involuntarily raised his eyebrows.

What's going on with this person?
He dressed like a tomboy and showed no unusual emotions whatsoever, acting as if he were at home.

"Xu Tianzhen, don't you hate me?"

Why should I hate you?

"Forehead"

One sentence left Lin Po speechless, followed by a barrage of counter-questions.

"Did you kill Father? Besides Father and that rebellious brother, are the other former royal family members who didn't participate in the rebellion dead? Did the Sun Moon Empire perish because of this?"

"No, you didn't! At most, you just fanned the flames from behind! Even without you, what was going to happen would still happen."

"Not to mention your strength is so great, you have fulfilled the Sun Moon Empire's four-thousand-year-old wish, only a princess like me would hate you if I had nothing better to do!"

The girl's seemingly genuine tone left Lin Po momentarily stunned, completely at a loss for how to respond.

Does a person live up to their name?

To live life with clarity and understanding?
No matter what words you use to describe her, they all seem to fall short.

"So what are you planning to do next?"

"What else can we do? As you requested, we'll deal with the remnants left by our incompetent father, and then we'll stay in Mingdu and continue to eat, drink, and have fun."

Xu Tianzhen responded without hesitation.

"Oh, and while we're at it, let's see how the Sun Moon Empire will develop under your and the Empress's rule."

"You're certainly not being polite, but surprisingly, you're not annoying. Here, have a little something for you. Open it when you get back."

Lin Po shook his head and chuckled upon hearing this, then tossed her a soul tool.

"Giving a gift so secretly, how petty. I'm leaving now, call me if you need anything."

With that, Xu Tianzhen ran out of the Emperor's Mansion without looking back, her hopping and skipping movements showing that she was extremely happy.

"Brother Lin, it seems that Xu Tianzhen wasn't lying."

"Hmm? You can sense emotions now?"

It seems that the biggest surprise of the day fell on Huo Yuhao.
