Chapter 538 Extra: Jin Li: Oh my god! Oh my god!

Huo Yuhao walked over with a smile, looked at the three of them, and asked, "What are you talking about, so happy?"

Jin Li looked up at him, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said with a hint of playfulness, "This is a secret between us, I won't tell you."

As she spoke, she stood up, her gaze passing over Huo Yuhao's shoulder and landing on Dai Yuhao and Tang Wutong behind him.

Those brilliant golden pupils flickered slightly, as if confirming something, and after a moment asked, "The world ten thousand years from now?"

Huo Yuhao nodded, skipping the introduction.

Behind him were two people, one who looked exactly like him and the other who looked exactly like Wang Dong'er sitting there.

Knowing that she could travel through ten thousand years, Jin Li immediately recognized their identities. She only glanced at Dai Yuhao and Tang Wutong before looking away, clearly showing no interest in them.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao added an introduction to the two people behind him: "This is Jin Li."

Dai Yuhao and Tang Wutong's gazes fell on Jin Li, and they were both stunned for a moment.

Almost simultaneously, two words popped into their minds—auspicious beast.

In fact, both of them felt a deep sense of guilt towards the auspicious beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, especially Dai Yuhao.

At this moment, he looked at Jin Li. Although the woman in front of him did not resemble Wang Qiu'er in his memory at all, the fact that she was standing there was enough to make his heart surge and he could not calm down for a long time.

Jin Li glanced at Dai Yuhao's hesitant and complicated expression, frowned slightly, hummed softly, and sat back down.

At this moment, Wang Dong'er asked, "Have the matters ten thousand years from now been resolved?"

Huo Yuhao nodded upon hearing this and said calmly, "It's basically settled. Tang—the Sea God—has returned, but his cultivation has been sealed, and he awaits judgment."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong'er's emotions did not fluctuate much.

She picked up her teacup, took a small sip, and looked as indifferent as if she were listening to an old story that had nothing to do with her.

This calmness was not a deliberate pretense, but rather something that had been honed little by little over thousands of years. She had long since accepted what her father, Tang San, had done, and had long since moved on from that heart-wrenching past.

Moreover, Huo Yuhao was talking about Tang San from the world ten thousand years in the future, so what does that have to do with her?

However, when she put down her teacup and her gaze inadvertently swept across Tang Wutong's face, her heart still stirred slightly.

Tang Wutong stood there silently, her eyes lowered, her long, light blue hair obscuring half of her face.

Even so, Wang Dong'er could still see clearly that the face that looked exactly like hers was filled with an overwhelming sadness and confusion.

She was all too familiar with that expression; it was exactly like the look on her face ten thousand years ago when she first learned the true nature of her father.

The same sense of helplessness, the same feeling of the world collapsing, the same feeling that the whole world had turned upside down overnight.

Feeling a sense of empathy, a soft light flashed in Wang Dong'er's eyes. She put down her teacup, stood up, and walked to Tang Wutong.

The two people facing each other were only different in their clothes, but their faces were exactly the same, as if they were looking in a mirror.

But their expressions were completely different. Tang Wutong's eyes were filled with unfathomable pain, as if she had been repeatedly crushed by something and had not yet had time to recover.

In Wang Dong'er's eyes, however, was a calm that had settled over the years, but beneath that calm lay an unconcealable heartache.

Wang Dong'er said, "I know it's hard to accept, but it's the truth."

Tang Wutong knew what she was talking about, but even so, the sorrow in her heart still surged up uncontrollably, blocking her chest and making it hard for her to breathe.

She was silent for a moment, then sighed softly, looked up at Wang Dong'er, and gazing into her bright eyes, asked in a low voice, "How did you get through that time?"

Wang Dong'er did not answer immediately, but instead reached out and took her hand, leading her to sit down at the stone table.

After sitting down, Wang Dong'er looked into Tang Wutong's eyes and said gently, "Time may not heal everything, but it can soothe the pain."

"I've been through this stage myself, so I hope you can get through it quickly now."

Xiao Wu, who was standing to the side, also turned her gaze to Tang Wutong.

She remained silent, simply sitting there quietly, yet the emotions surging in her eyes ran deeper than anyone else's.

As Tang San's wife, she suffered a far greater blow than Wang Dong'er.

Her husband was imprisoned, her family was broken, and the trust built up over decades collapsed overnight. The pain almost crushed her.

Later, it was with Wang Dong'er's company and encouragement that she gradually got through those dark days.

In her eyes, Tang Wutong, though from another world, was still her daughter.

She couldn't help but reach out and gently take Tang Wutong's hand. Her palm was warm, and her voice was extremely gentle: "Since you're here, stay here for a while. It's better for us to be here than for you to carry this alone."

Tang Wutong stared blankly at Xiao Wu's gentle face, her eyes involuntarily welling up with tears.

This face is exactly the same as her mother's in another world, even the habit of slightly tilting her head when speaking and the look of heartache in her eyes are exactly the same.

A pang of sadness struck her, and she was almost about to nod in agreement, but the words caught in her throat.

She looked up at Huo Yuhao standing beside her, and asked cautiously, "Huo—Huo Yuhao, could you bring my mother over as well?"

Huo Yuhao looked at her and sighed softly, then nodded: "Of course you can. After we get back and the Sea God's Judgment is over, bring your mother with you."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wutong softly hummed in agreement, lowered her eyes, and held Xiao Wu's hand tightly without letting go.

Huo Yuhao's gaze swept over Xiao Wu, Wang Dong'er, and Jin Li's faces one by one, and he asked, "Will you attend Tang San's trial ten thousand years from now?"

Xiao Wu and Wang Dong'er exchanged a glance, then shook their heads in unison.

That past event is a scar on their hearts that has long since scabbed over but they are unwilling to reopen.

They just wanted to put the matter behind them completely and never mention it again, so naturally they wouldn't go.

But Jin Li raised her right hand almost instantly, her long, golden-red hair tossing as she moved, her bright golden eyes flashing, and she exclaimed, "I'll go! I'll go!"

Tang San had done countless bad things, so to her he was a complete enemy.

If Tang San hadn't been secretly manipulating things back then, she wouldn't have been forced to the point of sacrificing herself.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao received the inheritance of the God of Destruction, which changed her fate.

Now that she has the chance to witness her enemy suffer, how could she possibly miss it?

Although this is Tang San from another world, he is just as despicable in Jin Li's heart!
