Douluo Continent: The Rebirth of Huo Yuhao

Chapter 2: The Journey Begins! The Sun and Moon Empire!

Tang Ya and Bei Bei were both surprised to see Huo Yuhao hesitate to speak.

Just now, when Huo Yuhao heard about the Tang Sect's techniques, he was clearly interested. Why did he suddenly fall silent halfway through his sentence? Moreover, his face was terribly gloomy, as if some monster inside him was about to roar out.

"I'm sorry, Brother Bei, Sister Tang Ya. I can't join the Tang Sect. I have some things I need to do," Huo Yuhao said to Bei Bei and Tang Ya after calming down.

"Yuhao, little brother, what you just did..."

"Alright, Xiaoya, since Brother Huo still has things he wants to do, let's not force him. Brother Huo, Tang Clan will always welcome you. It's okay if you don't want to join Tang Clan now. Come back to Brother Nibei and Sister Xiaoya after you've finished your business."

Before Tang Ya could finish speaking, Bei Bei interrupted her. He could tell that Huo Yuhao had something on his mind and seemed to have some reservations about the Tang Sect, so he didn't press the matter further.

"Thank you, Brother Bei, Sister Xiaoya. You are the kindest people to me besides my mother. I will definitely come to find you after I finish what I need to do." Since he did not intend to join the Tang Sect, Huo Yuhao decided to say goodbye to Bei Bei and Tang Ya.

"Alright, little brother Huo. I hope everything goes well for you. Then let's part ways here. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, come to Shrek Academy to find me and your sister Xiaoya. We will do our best to help you." Bei Bei understood Huo Yuhao's implied meaning and took the initiative to say goodbye.

"Alright, thank you, Brother Bei. Let's part ways here. I hope you can restore the glory of the Tang Sect." Huo Yuhao said his blessing and then transformed and left the Star Dou Great Forest.

……

Huo Yuhao left the Star Dou Great Forest and was wandering aimlessly.

The voice of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm echoed in my mind:

"Yuhao, why did you refuse them just now? That Tang Sect technique they mentioned sounds really powerful. I've heard of Shrek Academy; even those guys from Star Dou Great Forest are quite wary of them. A technique that can rival their foundation must be amazing."

"Brother Tianmeng, I'm actually quite interested in the legendary Tang Clan martial arts. It's said that it was created by Tang San, the ancestor of the Tang Clan, and its power is absolutely astonishing."

But just as I was about to agree, a voice suddenly appeared in my subconscious, telling me that if I chose to join the Tang Clan...

Then my mother's revenge will just be left unresolved. Brother Tianmeng, do you know that? If I can't avenge her in this life, then there's no point in me living?

From the moment my mother died in my arms, I should have gone with her.

But I didn't. I survived. For me, the meaning of living is to become stronger, and then make those two kneel before my mother's grave in repentance!

As Huo Yuhao spoke, a boundless hatred flashed in his eyes.

Hearing the resolute tone in Huo Yuhao's words, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was also somewhat moved. She sighed.

"You little rascal, it seems like your hatred runs even deeper than the hatred I felt from being tortured by those beasts for ten thousand years. But don't worry, Yuhao. Since I've chosen you, I'll definitely help you reach the top! And defeat all your enemies!"

"Thank you, Brother Tianmeng! You are the best soul beast to me in the world besides my mother!" Huo Yuhao wiped his eyes and said with emotion.

"You brat, those two people were the best people to you besides your mother, and your brother is the best soul beast, right?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said somewhat unhappily.

"Hehe, Brother Tianmeng, you've caught my little secret!" Huo Yuhao seemed to have recovered a lot and joked with Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. The long-term pain had taught Huo Yuhao to hide his sadness in his heart and not to easily show his vulnerability.

Displaying such weakness outwardly is a sign of cowardice! His childhood experiences taught Huo Yuhao that his weakness would only drive everyone away. And that would be meaningless for revenge!

"Since you've rejected the Tang Sect, where are you going now? I know very little about your human world." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's voice rang out in my mind at just the right moment.

"I don't know either." Huo Yuhao also showed some confusion when talking about the future. After all, he was only an 11-year-old child, and he had been engaged in heavy labor for the past few years, spending all his remaining time meditating. He had only recently reached level 10 soul power.

At only 11 years old, Huo Yuhao had never experienced a good day. His only remaining family member, his mother, had also passed away, leaving him without his only means of experiencing warmth as a human being.

This child's fate is truly tragic. It's heartbreaking that Huo Yuhao didn't turn evil before and even forgave Dai Hao and Dai Huabin, which directly negates the suffering that Huo Yuhao and his mother endured.

Perhaps, even after Huo Yuhao became the God of Emotions, he hadn't forgotten the hatred that had taken root in his heart. He was simply forced to hide it well. The strong resistance he had just shown to himself in his subconscious desire to join the Tang Sect also hinted at this.

"By the way, Brother Tianmeng. I'm a spirit-type soul master, and with your unprecedented wisdom soul ring, my spiritual power will definitely become extremely strong, right?" Huo Yuhao seemed to suddenly remember something and asked Tianmeng Ice Silkworm in his mind.

"Of course, as a unique million-year soul ring, although your soul power was almost completely drained by those beasts, your spiritual power is still at the level of a million-year soul beast. In addition to granting you four powerful soul skills, it also seals a vast amount of spiritual power. As long as you can digest this power, your spiritual power will become the strongest below the gods!"

In the realm of the mind, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm proudly patted its chest and said.

"That's great, Brother Tianmeng! Let's go to the Sun Moon Empire! I heard it's the place where soul tools are developing the fastest on the entire continent. And the most important thing in making soul tools is mental power, so we'll definitely be able to make a difference there!"

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Huo Yuhao said with some longing, "Many times, mental strength cannot reveal a person's true strength. However, soul tools created using mental strength can produce terrifying destructive power. The power of the soul tool was what allowed him to kill that wind baboon."

In addition, there is another point: wars frequently break out at the border between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire. Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger is on that battlefield. After I join the Sun Moon Empire, I might be able to meet him on the battlefield!

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao clenched his fists tightly! The thought of meeting him on the battlefield filled him with uncontrollable excitement!

"Just wait, that'll be the time for us to settle accounts! You'll be shocked when you see me! I swore I'd make you kneel before your mother's grave in repentance, and I will keep my word!"

Before Tianmeng Ice Silkworm could object, Huo Yuhao took a step.

Anyway, since Brother Tianmeng said he's not familiar with human society, he'll have to decide for himself!

"Alright! Brother Tianmeng, it's decided, we're going to the Sun Moon Empire! Let's go!"
