Douluo Continent: The Rebirth of Huo Yuhao

Chapter 50 The Agreement

Huo Yuhao, bewildered and confused, looked at Senior Ju Zi. His heart skipped a beat. Was Dai Yueheng a distant relative of Senior Ju Zi? Or had Senior Ju Zi always harbored feelings for Dai Yueheng?

That can't be right. Senior Orange is from the Sun Moon Empire, how could she be involved with the White Tiger Duke's Mansion?

Huo Yuhao's mind raced with wild speculation: what if all of this were true? How would he get along with Senior Sister Ju Zi in the future?

Suddenly, Orange spoke up:

"Yuhao, thank you."

Huo Yuhao was stunned. What was going on?

Seeing Huo Yuhao's helpless expression, Ju Zi chuckled, wiped away her tears, and put on a relaxed face, saying:

"Silly boy, what are you standing there for? I scared you just now, didn't I? I'm sorry."

Huo Yuhao still didn't understand what had happened, and cautiously asked, "Senior Ju Zi, what happened just now? Do you know Dai Yueheng?"

"I don't know him, but I want to thank you for letting Duke White Tiger experience the pain of losing a loved one. Thank you, Yuhao." Orange thanked Huo Yuhao again solemnly.

Huo Yuhao suddenly realized that the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire had been at war for many years, and both sides had accumulated too much hatred. As the commander-in-chief on the front line against the Sun Moon Empire, Duke White Tiger naturally bore the hatred of most of the people of the Sun Moon Empire.

"Senior Orange, you're welcome." Huo Yuhao replied stiffly. He hadn't expected that Senior Orange also had a grudge against Duke White Tiger. Huo Yuhao spoke again:

"Senior, you and Duke White Tiger..."

"I was once an ordinary girl in a small border town of the Sun Moon Empire. My father was the best chef in town, and my mother was the most beautiful girl in town. My mother loved my father's cooking the most, so she decided to marry him so she could eat his cooking for free for the rest of her life. Yuhao, tell me, isn't my mother a very smart woman?"

When Ju Zi recalled the past, a happy smile appeared on her face.

Huo Yuhao didn't want to answer because he knew that the ending wouldn't be as wonderful as the beginning.

If Huo Yuhao didn't speak, the story could have stayed here, how wonderful that would have been.

But it won't.

Ju Zi didn't receive a reply from Huo Yuhao, but her tears could no longer be stopped. Her rosy cheeks were already soaked with tears, and she said in a trembling voice:

"But then the war with Xingluo broke out, and the battlefield was very close to our town. All the men in the town were conscripted by the empire to protect their homes and women. After my father said goodbye to my mother and me, he left the town, and my mother never ate a meal cooked by my father again."

"In that war, the commander of Xingluo was none other than Duke Baihu. After my father left, my mother ate very little every day. She said that all the food in the world lacked flavor, and she couldn't eat it."

Ju Zi cried her heart out in the empty underground laboratory, and Huo Yuhao watched sadly as Ju Zi cried without any regard for her image.

He could understand Ju Zi's pain at losing her loved ones, but he couldn't feel Ju Zi's hatred for the war and Xing Luo.

After crying for a while, Orange slowly recovered, wiped away her tears, and calmly said:

"Yuhao, I know you and I have similar experiences. Although you are from the Star Luo Empire, Star Luo has only brought us pain and hatred. Are you willing to help me?"

"Don't worry, Senior Orange. I'll definitely help you!"

Huo Yuhao agreed to Ju Zi's request without hesitation. He shared the same hatred; how could he refuse such a request?

"Alright! It's settled then, we'll avenge Duke White Tiger and Xingluo together!"

"good!"

The two then made an agreement.

Although the agreement they made at this time was pleasant, they both had some misunderstandings about each other.

Huo Yuhao thought that Ju Zi's strength was limited, so he asked him to help her take revenge.

Ju Zi, however, was unaware that Huo Yuhao's enemy was also the White Tiger Duke. Her so-called help was actually an attempt to get Huo Yuhao to join her army.

Thus, amidst the misunderstanding, the two made a pact. However, there is only one White Tiger Duke in the world, and one of them is destined to be unable to take action personally.

Huo Yuhao chatted with Ju Zi for a long time, and finally asked Ju Zi to wait for Professor Xuan Ziwen to return and tell him that he was back. Only then did he slowly leave Xuan Ziwen's laboratory, as he was going into seclusion.

When Huo Yuhao left the academy, he had just broken through to level 23 in soul power; now he has reached level 30.

Before the final battle, Huo Yuhao's soul power broke through to level 29.

In the final battle, he did his best to block Ma Xiaotao's Black Flame Phoenix, and also overexerted his mental energy to release two soul impacts.

After exhausting his soul power and mental energy, Huo Yuhao was surprised to find that his soul power had broken through level 30.

Only when the body is pushed to its limits can its potential be unleashed. Huo Yuhao indulged in his energy this time, and although he was unconscious for five whole days, he still gained a lot.

Having just broken through to the next level, his soul power quickly reached the level 30 mark. With just one more soul ring, he could step into the Soul Venerable realm.

Huo Yuhao joined the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy at the age of eleven, and in less than two years, he has increased his soul power by nearly twenty levels!

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy truly spared no effort in cultivating Huo Yuhao!

Huo Yuhao was very happy as he examined his body, thinking to himself with delight what kind of effect his third spirit ring should have.

After thinking it over and over but still not coming up with a good result, he had no choice but to ask Tianmeng Bingcan.

"Brother Tianmeng, my soul power has broken through level 30. I can add my third soul ring now. What kind of soul beast do you think I should find?"

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

Huo Yuhao asked in the sea of ​​his mind.

"It depends on what kind of effect you want to achieve. Your current two spirit rings already have four different effects, which work very well when combined."

"Mental detection is exploration, mental interference is weakening, soul impact is attack, and simulation is concealment."

"When choosing your next Soul Skill, you can also start from these four aspects. Once you've determined the direction, it will be easier to make your choices."

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm stopped short of making a move; Huo Yuhao needs to grow up and make his own decisions.

He can offer advice on the path to godhood, but he cannot interfere with Huo Yuhao's choices. Soul beasts have little say in this path.

After pondering for a while, Huo Yuhao made a decision.

"Brother Tianmeng, I've made up my mind. I'll choose a soul skill that's similar to mental interference."

For an offensive soul skill to be effective, it requires an enormous amount of mental energy. With his current mental capacity, he wouldn't be able to unleash even a few before fainting. One Soul Impact is enough for now.

One mental probe is sufficient for investigation.

As for hiding, that's not Huo Yuhao's inclination.

Mental interference doesn't consume much mental energy but can still have a certain impact, making it very suitable for use at this stage.

After deciding on the direction, I let Tianmeng have her own headache.

Huo Yuhao needs to calm down and properly digest what he has learned.

As the saying goes, it's always good to have many skills, but Huo Yuhao, with a cultivation level of only level 30, already has a full ten soul skills, not even including the magic taught to him by Electrolux.

Sometimes when they fight, Huo Yuhao doesn't even know which skill to use.
