Douluo Continent: Starting from Leading Ferocious Beasts to Transform into Demons

Chapter 14 Prelude to the Meeting

"Yuhao, open the door!"

The footsteps suddenly stopped, and a rapid knocking reached their ears.

"My second uncle is here. You should find a place to hide."

Wang Dong's voice made Er Ming stare at Huo Yuhao with a livid face, and a heavy aura slowly pressed down on Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao froze, feeling as if he could hardly breathe under this aura. He secretly groaned, "Wang Dong, you've really ruined me."

Erming didn't say anything, but walked to the door. Hearing the increasingly urgent knocking, he forced an awkward smile and opened the door.

"Yuhao...Second Father, you're here too."

Wang Dong's hand suddenly felt empty. Just as she was about to go in, she found a towering figure blocking her way. After seeing the other person's face, her voice grew softer and softer.

"Because the teacher didn't know where you were, I came to your dorm to look for you."

Erming suppressed his anger and cursed Tang San in his heart again.

"Second Uncle, you didn't do anything to Yuhao, did you?"

Wang Dong peeked inside with some concern and saw Huo Yuhao sitting obediently on the bed, which put his mind at ease. He only felt a little guilty when he made eye contact with Er Ming again.

"Dong'er, do you know who you are...?"

Erming was somewhat annoyed by her lack of ambition. It was one thing for her to dress as a boy and live with a boy, but she had only been in school for a short time and was already getting along so well with other boys. This was unacceptable!

Erming's desire to take Wang Dong away grew increasingly urgent.

"Second Uncle~ You still haven't told me what you're here for."

Wang Dong acted coquettishly, gave her second father a look, and then pulled him into the dormitory.

Wang Dong quickly sat down on her bed. Her uncles had acted strangely when she was asked to disguise herself as a man to enroll in school, saying it was her father's decision.

She always knew that her second father had a terrible temper with outsiders and didn't like her doing this. If he found out that she was living with Huo Yuhao, it would be bad if he lost his temper and couldn't control himself.

After that run, Wang Dong felt that she and Huo Yuhao were already friends, and she didn't want to lose her first friend.

"Yuhao, this is my second father. You should all know him. Although he has a bit of a temper, it's only because he's worried about me. So, if he did anything wrong before, please apologize on his behalf."

Wang Dong's face was filled with tension as he stared intently at Huo Yuhao's expression, wanting to know his reaction.

"It's okay, Wang Dong. My uncle is very good to me, and we get along quite well."

Huo Yuhao smiled and told Wang Dong that he was fine.

Although he is only an eleven-year-old child, he has developed basic acting skills and composure after so many years of hardship.

And what can it do?

Wang Dong will definitely side with his second father in the end. That second father must also be a strong person. He has nothing but resentment from others, so he might as well gain some goodwill.

Despite his young age, Huo Yuhao, who had endured many hardships, already knew how to gain greater benefits.

Wang Dong breathed a sigh of relief. When he returned, his teacher told him that his second uncle was looking for him, so he rushed back. It seemed that nothing unpleasant had happened.

Erming felt both gratified and heartbroken as he listened to Wang Dong's words. He was gratified that Wang Dong was beginning to grow up, but he also felt heartbroken because Wang Dong was starting to grow up.

"By the way, Second Uncle, why did you suddenly come to see me? I just started school, didn't I?"

Wang Dong was very puzzled, since his eldest and second uncles basically never left their homes and always arranged for disciples of the Haotian Sect to handle any matters.

You probably know about the recent weather changes, right?

Erming crossed his arms and his face turned serious. He hadn't expected there to be so many things happening in the Star Dou Great Forest. After all, the Haotian Sect had fewer people and its intelligence network wasn't as strong as those of the larger powers.

"We know, but we don't know exactly what happened?"

Wang Dong frowned slightly. These past few days, Xiao Xiao had been talking to her about this from time to time, and she would occasionally worry about the future of her family.

"Because of this cataclysmic event, we have temporarily lost contact with your father, so I left the sect to protect you and take you around the continent for a trip."

Erming's expression suddenly changed from serious to cheerful, showing that he was still looking forward to spending time with Wang Dong.

"My father? Then why did he never see me before?"

Wang Dong raised an eyebrow. His uncles had been saying that something had happened to his parents. He had thought that they had actually passed away a long time ago, but they just didn't want him to know. But judging from his uncle's words, his parents were really still alive.

Huo Yuhao, who was standing to the side, was also shocked, and then felt a sense of sympathy for him.

He had been wondering why the other person had two fathers, but it turned out they weren't his biological parents. The other person's parents were also missing, and he had never even met them. At least he had lived with his mother for a while.

"Perhaps your father has something he can't get away from."

"Maybe your father is a bastard," Erming added to himself.

Wang Dong shook his head, banishing the thoughts about his parents whom he had never met from his mind, and finally smiled.

"Although I don't think I need your protection, Second Uncle, I still thank you for coming."

"By the way, do you want to attend the meeting next?"

"It seems that all the major powers are sending representatives to Shrek Academy to hold a meeting to investigate the anomalies in the Star Dou Great Forest."

Erming seemed to suddenly realize something and asked Wang Dong.

"At that time, all the major powers will recognize our true colors."

"Second Uncle, you should go. I'm too lazy to listen to your endless arguing in the meeting."

Wang Dong curled her lips. She wasn't stupid. She knew that these meetings always involved arguing and bickering. She could just ask her second father to tell her the result.

"Fine, it's okay if you don't go, anyway, there's nothing to say."

Erming didn't seem to care that Wang Dong would refuse, or perhaps he had already guessed that she would refuse. He was just mentioning it casually, in case Wang Dong wanted to broaden her horizons.

However, a sense of worry immediately welled up in his heart. He was originally a 100,000-year-old soul beast from the Star Dou Great Forest and knew what was hidden behind the Star Dou Great Forest.

After reading the information Shrek Academy gave him, he guessed that something had probably happened to the Lord of Soul Beasts. However, no matter how serious the injuries were, he was still a God King at his peak, and even a single move was something he and his older brother could not stop.

However, he didn't care about the lives of humans. In essence, he was a soul beast, and even if he became a god, he would still be a divine beast. It was just that he had been worried about Tang San's surveillance, which was why he and his older brother had been staying on that mountain in a frustrated manner, without even returning to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Huo Yuhao, standing to the side, seemed to be stunned by the news he had just heard, and indeed he was. Wang Dong's background was that of someone who could stand shoulder to shoulder with the major powers.

But what interested Huo Yuhao the most was whether that heartless man would come or not. Among those who could come to Shrek Academy to discuss matters, the various empires would always take up a few spots. Huo Yuhao really wanted to know who the Star Luo Empire would send.

"The meeting will probably start tomorrow. During this time, I will protect you, Dong'er, and I won't let anything hurt you."

Erming spoke with great arrogance, but there were indeed few people in this world who could defeat him at this moment. He could always escape with Wang Dong. At worst, he could just break the seal. Anyway, the God Realm was currently out of contact and could not observe the situation in Douluo Continent.

As if he had thought of something, Erming's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
