Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 554 Is this my own child? (Daily 10,000 words)

Huo Yuhao left the third floor of the Golden Tree in a daze and arrived at the room that the academy had temporarily prepared for him.

Huo Yuhao knocked on the door, but it wasn't Wang Dong who opened it; it was Huo Yun'er.

At this moment, Huo Yun'er opened the door with one hand and held a needle and thread in the other, seemingly knitting a sweater.

"mom?!"

Huo Yuhao's voice rang out with a hint of surprise.

"I'm back."

Huo Yun'er patted Huo Yuhao's head with satisfaction: "Don't just stand there like an idiot at the door, come in quickly."

Huo Yuhao obediently sat down and knitted with his mother. Huo Yun'er was very skillful; the two knitting needles flew up and down, making Huo Yuhao a little dazzled.

"You must be tired after working away from home for the past two years."

Huo Yun'er's gentle and delicate voice came through, making Huo Yuhao's nose tingle.

"No, it's fine. It's just that I'm studying in a different place. Mom, listen to me, there are really tall and big buildings in the Sun Moon Empire, and..."

Huo Yun'er smiled as she listened to Huo Yuhao sitting beside her, sharing his experiences from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, nodding occasionally.

"By the way, Mom, have you seen Wang Dong? He's the glutton who used to come over to your place all the time, thinking he could eat a few more kebabs."

Huo Yuhao's words caused Huo Yun'er's face to twitch almost imperceptibly. Her eyes were filled with affection and helplessness as she patted Huo Yuhao's head and said, "Silly boy."

"What's wrong with me?"

Huo Yuhao's eyes widened.

"It's nothing. I don't know where your classmate went, but he prepared a small gift for you and asked if you missed him."

As she spoke, Huo Yun'er took out a golden cloth bag with a small "Winter" character sewn on it using cross-stitch, giving it a somewhat dignified and delicate appearance.

"Haha, how come Wang Dong, that idiot, is so carefree, yet his handwriting is so delicate?"

Huo Yuhao mercilessly mocked his good brother's handwriting, then took the bag and studied it carefully.

"Wang Dong really understands me. It's a storage bag that can hold living creatures. This thing isn't cheap. Hmm, it smells pretty good. That's definitely Wang Dong's personality."

Huo Yuhao was overjoyed when he saw the storage bag and quickly clipped it to his waist.

"I was planning to treat him to a special meal so the two of us could have a nice meal together, but this idiot isn't here. We'll have to wait until he gets back. Mom, I'm going to go find Ning Ge and Jie Qu for a drink. If Wang Dong comes back, I'll have him come to our usual spot."

Huo Yuhao chuckled.

Huo Yun'er subtly covered her forehead. Was this really the child she had given birth to? How could he be so slow to realize it?

"Okay, Mom understands."

Huo Yun'er waved her hand weakly, dismissing Huo Yuhao.

"Click".

As the door to her room closed, Huo Yun'er lowered her head again and began knitting. Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong were in the large wardrobe in the Sea God Pavilion when a delicate figure pushed open the wardrobe door and appeared.

The man's figure was about 80% similar to Wang Dong's, but his facial features were softer. He had long hair, his fists were clenched tightly, and his eyes were fixed on the door where Huo Yuhao had left, as if he wished he could devour Huo Yuhao alive.

"Xiaodong, I'm not trying to be mean, but how could you be so blind as to fall for that idiot Yuhao? You would have chosen char siu instead of him."

Huo Yun'er reluctantly put her sweater aside and looked at that figure.

"Aunt!"

Upon hearing this, the other person's face immediately turned red. The look in their eyes, which had originally been intent on devouring Huo Yuhao, instantly turned panicked. Like a frightened little rabbit, they looked flustered and dared not look at Huo Yun'er.

"Outstanding elder brother, Brother Ning!"

Huo Yuhao spotted the two people experimenting with soul tools in the inner courtyard's battle area from afar and shouted excitedly.

"Yuhao!"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, the two of them turned around abruptly, and the three of them hugged each other with a thud, making a cracking sound, which made the other students in the inner courtyard gasp.

"Haha, you're back safe and sound, Yuhao. Let's go to my mom's bar. We'll drink as much as we want tonight."

Jiechu let out a hearty laugh, while Ningge tossed aside the soul tool he had only half-tested.

"Let's go, let's go."

Just as Ning Ge was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something, quickly put away his soul tool, and walked towards the other side of the testing area.

"Sister Qiu is with us during the test, so we need to let her know first."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao was somewhat surprised: "Sister Qiu? When did our academy acquire this new person?"

"No," Jiechu shook his head, "Sister Qiu is a freshman who just entered our college from another school this year. She's incredibly strong, so we all call her Sister Qiu. Actually, she should be about your age."

Huo Yuhao gasped. Who was this Sister Qiu? How could Jie Qu and Ning Ge call her Sister Qiu so naturally in just a few days?

In the world of Soul Masters, strength is ultimately paramount. For two senior members of the Inner Court, Jiechu and Ningge, to sincerely call each other "Sister Qiu," their strength must be quite formidable.

"Come on, take me to see it. I recently watched my master's wife fight and had some new insights. I'm looking for a good opponent to fight with."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao became excited and quickly walked to the end of the experimental area, only to see a figure that made him gasp for breath.

A female version of Wang Dong.

A head of long, wavy, light blue hair. The moment that hair came into view, Huo Yuhao was stunned.

The white dress, the light blue hair, and the figure from behind were exactly the same as Wang Dong's, except that she was slightly taller and had a more feminine figure.

By the way, the other person was also wearing an elegant pair of frameless gold-rimmed glasses, which gave them a somewhat aloof and mature look.

"I'll go."

Huo Yuhao let out a shocked sigh: "Wang Dong actually has an older sister? I thought he was joking. Didn't we not see his sister's room in the Haotian Sect?"

"what?"

Ning Ge and Jie Qu also gasped upon hearing this. Huo Yuhao's words sounded like he knew nothing at all.

Huo Yuhao stared blankly at the other person for a long time before finally managing to stammer out, "Y-you, hello, my name is Huo Yuhao, you must be Wang Dong's sister?"

The woman, who resembled Wang Dong's sister, subtly adjusted her frameless glasses and said, "Idiot, it's me. Just call me Wang Qiu'er."

As she spoke, Wang Qiu'er took out a giant sword from her storage soul tool. Huo Yuhao's eyes widened in shock. Wasn't this the Judgment Sword that he had placed with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion?
