Douluo Huo Yuhao: My Clone is Too Self-Disciplined

Chapter 41 The Golden Tortoiseshell King, You Don't Want This Either (Please Read On)

Huo Yuhao, carrying the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, ran at top speed to the vicinity of the cave and then tiptoed into the cave!

From its remains, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm took out a pure white and slender silk thread, tied one end to the tree at the entrance of the cave, and wrapped the other end around Huo Yuhao's waist!
He descended slowly down the cave wall, and through mental detection and mental sharing, he saw that the Golden Tortoise King was still asleep with its eyes closed and had not noticed his arrival!
When Huo Yuhao was only 100 meters away from the Golden Tortoise King, he stopped all his movements and held his breath!
The remains of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm were also transformed into a crystal-clear white net under his control, which Huo Yuhao held in his hand!
Aiming at the golden hawksbill turtle below, Huo Yuhao forcefully threw the silkworm net in his hand towards it!

The moment Huo Yuhao cast his net, the Golden Tortoise King suddenly opened its eyes. As a 100,000-year-old intelligent soul beast, and a particularly auspicious one at that, the Golden Tortoise King clan possesses an extremely keen sense of danger.

It was this innate ability that made the Golden Tortoise King open its eyes in an instant, looking at the overwhelming net in horror!
Danger loomed, and the Golden Tortoise King quickly gathered the last bit of soul power he had left, attaching it to his limbs, and prepared to burrow downwards!

Unfortunately, the net Huo Yuhao threw out was no ordinary net; it was the remains of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, a creature with a cultivation level of a million years. By the time the Golden Hawksbill King reacted, the large net had already enveloped the area around it and was rapidly closing in on its body!

Although the Golden Tortoise King was a 100,000-year-old soul beast, its cultivation had long been drained by the Life Gold, and even its flesh and blood had not been spared!
Its current strength is less than a hundredth of what it once was, and it is even weaker than a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast. How could it possibly escape the great net of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm!
In just a moment, the Golden Tortoise King was caught in the large net and could not move!

"Hehe, got it!"

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm chuckled and controlled the large net formed from the remains, pulling up the body of the Golden Tortoise King!

The Golden Hawksbill Turtle Clan symbolizes wisdom and auspiciousness. They are not skilled in combat, hence their relatively small size. The Golden Hawksbill Turtle King's body is oval-shaped, less than a meter in length and width. Furthermore, its golden shell has lost its original luster, becoming dull and grayish, and even bearing numerous cracks!
One could sense an extremely dense aura of death emanating from the Golden Tortoise King, which, combined with his decadent and listless demeanor, truly gave one the feeling of impending death!

"Damn it! Who are you people? Release me at once! I am a powerful 100,000-year-old soul beast! You dare to provoke me? You're really asking for trouble!"

Upon hearing the voice of the Golden Tortoise King, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was overjoyed. Its body transformed into a bolt of lightning, delivering a flying kick towards the Golden Tortoise King.

"Little turtle, look who your grandpa is!"

The sudden appearance of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm surprised the Golden Hat King. However, when he saw what the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm looked like, he was completely stunned!
Because of the destruction caused by the Life Gold, it remembered the event from three thousand years ago. Naturally, it could not forget the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, after all, it had secretly hidden underground to absorb its energy!

"You, are you that giant ice silkworm that was captured? You escaped?"

"Hmph, little turtle, I remember very clearly that you were one of the guys who absorbed my energy back then!"

"So you've come to settle scores with me?" The Golden Tortoise King's voice suddenly turned somewhat dejected. Upon seeing the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, it was initially shocked, but then inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity!

After all, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was probably the last acquaintance he saw before he died!

"If you're here for revenge, then come on! I don't know how you escaped, but I still have to congratulate you. Anyway, I won't live much longer, so do whatever you want!"

You are a very nice person!
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm is the kind of creature that responds better to gentle persuasion than force. It's a bit unsettling that the Golden Tortoise King is being so agreeable!
At this moment, the Golden Tortoise King pressed his advantage, saying, "You don't know this, but three thousand years ago, I suddenly contracted a strange disease, and now it's terminal."

"Sometimes, I even feel that death might be a relief for me! You can tell how much pain I've been living by looking at the wounds on my body!"

That's pretty tragic!
Although the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm has lived for so many years, it has only ever eaten and slept. Its mind is no different from that of a human child of a few years old. It knows that the Golden Tortoise King is not lying, after all, it and Huo Yuhao came for this very reason!

So when he saw the Golden Tortoise King in such a miserable state, he felt a little sorry for it!
"Brother, this net is making it hard for me to breathe! Can you let me out first? I'm about to die! You're not worried I'll escape, are you?" The Golden Tortoise King cried desperately, but it secretly gathered all the remaining life energy in its body into its legs, ready to flee the moment the net moved!

Upon hearing the words of the Golden Tortoise King, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm nodded seriously, because it felt that what it said made a lot of sense. Just as it was about to loosen its molted web, Huo Yuhao suddenly gave it a sharp rap on the head!
"Brother Tianmeng, don't say I know you once we get out of here. The Golden Tortoiseshell King's scheme has completely backfired on you, and you still haven't figured it out!"

"That old bastard just wanted to run away the moment you let go of him, and you actually believed him!"

Sure enough, at Huo Yuhao's signal, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm saw the Golden Tortoise King's little trick. It immediately flew into a rage, "Well, you little turtle, you actually tried to trick your brother Tianmeng and escape. You've got some nerve!"

Little did he know that the Golden Hawksbill King's voice was even louder than his. His scheme was exposed, and the Golden Hawksbill King completely dropped the pretense. "Damn it, you're all coming to kill me, and I'm not going to run? Do you think I'm stupid?!"

"And you brat, who exactly are you?"

Huo Yuhao had exposed his little scheme, and he was now extremely unhappy!
But he wasn't particularly scared. He had initially thought it was some kind of monster, but it turned out to be Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and a little human kid!

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm is a medicinal herb with no combat power, and that little brat's soul power is at most level 20. Even if he is exhausted, neither of these two guys can break through his defense, so he is safe!

The reason he lied to them was simply because he didn't want to waste any more time with them!

"Who I am is not important, Brother Tianmeng, let him go!"

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm: "???"

No, you just reminded me not to let him go, so why are you letting him go now?
"Brother Hao, are you sure? This little turtle is really cunning, don't let it get away!"

"Don't worry, it won't run away. Just let it go!"

Huo Yuhao had wanted the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm to use its million-year-old molt to capture the Golden Hawksbill King because he was worried that the Golden Hawksbill King would run away before he could even talk to it. But now, there's no need for that at all!
Upon hearing this, the Golden Tortoise King immediately revealed a disdainful smile!

Not running? I'd be an idiot not to run. Once the net opens, you'll regret it, you little brat!

After confirming with Huo Yuhao several times, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had no choice but to collect the million-year-old molt net as he requested, and the Golden Tortoise King was immediately freed!
The golden hawksbill turtle gave the two people the middle finger, wiggled its butt, and was about to dive into the bottom of the lake!

"What a pair of fools! They said I couldn't run? I'll show them right now!"

However, the instant it descended, Huo Yuhao's words plunged it into an ice cellar, making its entire body feel the biting cold! Its figure froze on the spot, no longer moving!

"Golden Tortoiseshell King, you can leave, but you don't want your theft of the Emperor's Heavenly Spirit Gold to be exposed, do you?"
