Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 467 The Employee Delivered to Your Door (8K)

In front of Huo Yuhao, the branch elder who made the Great Holy Spirit and the Second Holy Spirit bow down was so vulnerable. It seemed that killing these three people was nothing in Huo Yuhao's eyes.

All these changes happened so fast and so suddenly that she didn't even have time to help her master—the temple master—before everything was completely over.

As a result, she didn't even have a chance to use the Divine Snow and Moon Concealment Sugar that Huo Yuhao gave her.

"Nana." Nana only woke up suddenly when Huo Yuhao called her name from close range.

"Go quickly to your parents. Time is running out. Under the influence of my holy light, the evil and filth that have tainted these vengeful spirits will gradually be cleansed. Once they are completely cleansed, they will return to the embrace of the Mother of All Spirits."

"If you have anything to say, tell them quickly. If you want to transform them into undead beings who can retain some consciousness, I can try. I'll wait for you outside."

Huo Yuhao slowly put away his Wind Mantis Giant Shadow Slash. He had finally managed to use the Blood Blade Technique, which was formed from the blood of a powerful evil soul master, but he hadn't been able to make good use of it. Huo Yuhao cursed the branch elder in his heart for being so clueless.

As he spoke, Huo Yuhao had already slipped out the way he came. Strangely enough, despite the commotion inside the underground hall, the holy servants outside didn't react at all.

Upon exiting the underground hall, eight saints were gathered together, seemingly looking around at something.

Huo Yuhao's sudden appearance left them somewhat at a loss.

"The ringleader has been executed by Heaven, and the Holy Spirit Cult branch is now a thing of the past. If you have any relatives whose souls are still imprisoned, go down and see them one last time."

"If anyone is determined to continue being a member of the Holy Spirit Cult, they can tell me now. My Abomination Giant is still short of enough souls as material."

Seeing their stunned expressions, Huo Yuhao said coldly, "If you miss this opportunity, you will never see your loved ones again. This is also the best time for you to leave this cult."

"Of course, if anyone really intends to continue being a holy servant, I'll help you get there in one step and send you directly to see your Holy Emperor."

Soon, as the first person, slow to realize what was happening, gradually understood Huo Yuhao's words and reacted, crying and scrambling towards the tunnel, the others followed suit.

Heart-wrenching cries echoed continuously from the underground tunnel.

In their desperation, they cried out to heaven and earth; in their extreme pain, they cried out to their parents. Watching their parents suffer and then be freed, a tremendous sense of joy and sorrow filled the hearts of these poor souls. Their piercing cries were so heart-wrenching that even Huo Yuhao, who was used to seeing life and death, could not bear to listen.

Some time later, Huo Yuhao received a relay from Nana.

"Do you have no attachment whatsoever to the world of the living?"

Huo Yuhao sighed. After enduring the inhuman torture and treatment from the Holy Spirit Cult, they had developed a strong aversion to living in the world as souls. Therefore, they were unwilling to transform into undead beings.

This may be a cruel decision for these people's children, but for them, it is a choice made out of necessity.

Living as souls, stripped of all six senses, and trapped in endless emptiness for so many years, they had nothing but pain and the madness and bloodlust instilled in them by the branch elders.

They ask for nothing but complete liberation.

After a long while, Nana was the first to emerge from the tunnel. She had already removed her hood and straw hat, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying.

She came to Huo Yuhao, her knees buckled and she knelt down, tears welling up in her eyes once again.

Huo Yuhao didn't stop them, but sighed and helped him up: "Please accept my condolences. This was their own choice. Your parents were purified at the moment of their death and can now successfully reach the Sea of ​​All Spirits to return to the embrace of the Mother of All Spirits with the other dead."

With swollen eyes, Nana asked in a muffled voice, "Master, is reincarnation and rebirth really real? And what are the Ocean of All Spirits and the Mother of All Spirits?"

Huo Yuhao wanted to explain, but didn't know how, so he simply borrowed Da Jiao's words and said, "The Mother of All Spirits is the Mother of All Spirits. She is not anyone, not a specific being. I'll explain it to you slowly later."

"However, I can assure you that your parents will be successfully reincarnated."

Nana bowed again: "Master, I will follow in your footsteps forever, until my soul perishes."

Behind her, a group of pale-faced figures, their eyes red and swollen from crying, also knelt down upon seeing this.

"I can never repay your kindness in giving me a second chance. I wish to stay with you for life and serve you with my soul."

Their experiences were almost identical to Nana's.

After seeing their loved ones' souls finally released, even though they didn't know Huo Yuhao before, they could feel the incomparably holy and sacred power he exuded.

If they could follow such a master, it might not be such a bad thing. Even if Huo Yuhao once said that he would turn the stubborn ones among them into materials for some kind of hateful giant spirit, they would not be afraid.

If Huo Yuhao is truly an evil soul master like the Great Holy Spirit and the branch elders, wouldn't the souls of their relatives be excellent materials?

However, Huo Yuhao not only did not do that, but also helped them avenge themselves, which made them even more determined to follow him.

Of the eight, four were Soul Masters and four were Soul Kings. Four of them were also Soul Instructors, and without Huo Yuhao's shelter, their future would have been bleak.

Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment, then turned to Nana: "Have you talked to them?"

Nana replied respectfully, "I only told them that they could survive by following you. But once this following begins, there is absolutely no possibility of betrayal or regret. They must endure loneliness and arduous tasks."

"They, like me, have become complete orphans. In this world, we have no relatives left, only hatred for the Holy Spirit Church. They also hope to become your helpers."

Looking at the determined eyes of the eight people in front of him, Huo Yuhao couldn't find any reason to refuse them for a moment.

"Okay, it's good to have eight more people to help you with your tasks. I have too many things to do, so it would be nice to have a few people to help you out."

Huo Yuhao knew very well that any one of the things he had to do could overwhelm a person, let alone so many.

Even as a boss who cares about his subordinates, Huo Yuhao had no reason to refuse these employees who came to him for help.
