Douluo: Villain Simulator, Starting with an Iron Sword Martial Soul

A moment later, Huo Yuhao's eyelashes trembled slightly.

Lu Changsheng immediately adjusted his breathing and expression.

His face was pale, and his eyes held just the right amount of weariness, hesitation, and reluctance.

Like a teenager of the same age who has just survived a deadly trap.

Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes.

He was still somewhat bewildered, seemingly not fully understanding what had happened to him.

But soon, he saw four corpses lying not far away.

They also saw Lu Changsheng standing three zhang away.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao gripped the White Tiger Dagger tightly and shouted urgently:

"who are you?"

Lu Changsheng did not approach, but simply raised his empty left hand to indicate that he had no hostile intentions.

Then, he glanced at the corpse on the ground and said in a low, hoarse voice:

"Don't be afraid."

"They are dead."

Huo Yuhao looked at him warily.

Who are they?

Lu Changsheng paused for a moment, then said:

"People from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's pupils suddenly contracted.

White Tiger Duke's Mansion?

These five words were like the sharpest knife, instantly piercing his heart.

His breathing quickened for a moment.

"impossible."

Lu Changsheng looked at him and said softly:

"You think it's impossible?"

"Or do you still refuse to believe that she won't let you go even after you left the Duke's mansion?"

Huo Yuhao's fingers tightened suddenly as he gripped the White Tiger Dagger.

"Who?"

Lu Changsheng slowly uttered four words:

"The Duchess."

The forest suddenly fell silent.

Huo Yuhao stared intently at Lu Changsheng, his once somewhat immature eyes now filled with an almost piercing hatred.

The Duchess.

The person who caused him and his mother to suffer humiliation in the White Tiger Duke's mansion.

The person who caused his mother, Huo Yun'er, to grow weaker day by day, and finally die of illness with resentment.

Huo Yuhao will never forget.

Looking at Huo Yuhao's expression, Lu Changsheng knew in his heart that he had hit the mark.

So he didn't rush to explain.

He was waiting, waiting for Huo Yuhao to speak up himself.

Sure enough, Huo Yuhao asked in a trembling voice:

How do you know who I am?

Lu Changsheng lowered his head, a bitter smile appearing on his face, and said:

"Because I was also one of her people."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's body tensed up abruptly, and he raised the White Tiger Dagger once more.

"You're here to kill me too?"

Lu Changsheng did not dodge; he simply nodded calmly.

"Yes."

"She gave us a portrait of you."

“Tell us that you have left the Duke’s mansion and may have gone to the Star Dou Great Forest.”

"She said that as long as you die in the mouth of a soul beast, no one will investigate."

Huo Yuhao's face gradually paled, but his eyes grew increasingly red.

Lu Changsheng continued:

"These people on the ground are all assassins she arranged."

"They were about to attack you."

"only……"

As he said this, he glanced back at the corpse and lowered his voice.

"I don't know why they suddenly died."

Chapter 36: Huo Yuhao of the Holy Spirit Cult?

This statement is half true and half false.

Lu Changsheng knew, of course, that it was the spiritual power of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm that killed them.

However, Huo Yuhao had just completed the fusion and had not yet fully understood the changes within his body. Saying that he didn't know at this time would actually make it easier for Huo Yuhao to believe him.

Huo Yuhao stared at him.

"Then why didn't you make a move?"

Lu Changsheng remained silent for a long time.

This time, he did not answer immediately.

Because a truly brilliant lie cannot be told too quickly.

It should sound like it was forced upon you.

He whispered:

"Because of your mother."

Huo Yuhao's breath hitched, and he looked puzzled.

"My mother?"

Lu Changsheng nodded.

“I have received her kindness before.”

Huo Yuhao's eyes trembled.

"What favor?"

Lu Changsheng had already prepared this story.

He looked up into the distance, his voice becoming somewhat low.

"A few years ago, I was taken to the White Tiger Duke's mansion to deliver a letter."

“I was young and of low status back then. Because I took the wrong turn, I was beaten by the servants in the mansion and thrown next to the woodshed in the backyard.”

"I thought I was going to die there."

"Later, a woman gave me a bowl of hot porridge and bandaged my wound."

Huo Yuhao's eyes instantly turned red.

Lu Changsheng continued:

She was dressed very simply.

"Unlike the nobles in the Duke's mansion."

"But she speaks very gently."

"I later found out that her name was Huo Yun'er."

"It's your mother."

Huo Yuhao's hand holding the White Tiger Dagger began to tremble.
