Douluo: Reborn as a Dragon, I am the Lord of Soul Beasts

Chapter 139

Seeing Huo Yuhao's reaction, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he nodded slightly, seeming to be satisfied with Huo Yuhao's performance. Wang Dong hurriedly stepped forward, stood in front of Huo Yuhao, and said to the middle-aged man: "Dad, this is my friend Huo Yuhao. He has just been promoted to Soul Emperor and is still in the adaptation period. I hope you don't scare him."

Huo Yuhao said respectfully, “Hello, uncle.” He could tell from the middle-aged man’s words that he was definitely not as young as he appeared.

Wang Dong said: "Yuhao, this is my eldest father, you can just call him uncle."

The middle-aged man withdrew his mental pressure. The majesty on his face gradually turned into gentleness, and his tone became much softer: "I see. Huo Yuhao, what I just did was just a small test for you. You were able to stay calm under such a strong mental pressure and respond quickly. It is indeed not easy. It seems that Dong'er was right about you."

Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief, with beads of sweat already oozing out of his forehead. He gathered his spiritual power and said respectfully, "Thank you for your praise, Senior. I can only cope with it with difficulty, and I still need more practice."

Wang Dong's father smiled and motioned for the guards behind him to retreat. He then stepped forward and patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder. "Young man, don't be too modest. With such talent and strength, you will definitely have a bright future. Dong'er said you are her friend, so you are a distinguished guest of our Wang family. Welcome to the Cloud Recesses."

Huo Yuhao bowed again, and the tension in his heart gradually dissipated. He looked at Wang Dong gratefully, and then said: "Thank you for your tolerance, senior. It is my honor to be here."

Wang Dong's father smiled and nodded: "Let's go in and have a rest first. You have worked hard on the way, and I will arrange someone to entertain you later." After that, he took Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong towards the palace.

After entering the palace, Huo Yuhao found that the interior decoration was even more luxurious. The exquisite murals, carvings and furnishings all revealed the heritage of the Wang family as the top family in the Tianhun Empire. The interior of the palace was extremely spacious, like a huge maze, with layers upon layers, revealing an ancient and mysterious atmosphere everywhere.

Wang Dong's father personally brought Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong to an elegant guest room and said softly, "This is where you can rest. If you need anything, you can tell the servants at any time."

After Huo Yuhao thanked him, Wang Dong's father left. Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong walked into the room and found that the interior was very comfortable and full of humanized designs, which were obviously designed to allow people to relax.

Huo Yuhao sat on the bedside, looked at Wang Dong, and whispered: "Dong'er, your family is really too mysterious. I have never seen such a strong spiritual pressure, nor have I ever seen such a beautiful place."

Wang Dong smiled, sat beside him and held his hand: "This is where I grew up and it's my favorite place. Although it's beautiful, I know I can't stay here forever. There are too many responsibilities and missions waiting for me to fulfill in the outside world."

Huo Yuhao nodded, a warm feeling welling up in his heart: "No matter where you go, I will be with you." He gently held Wang Dong's hand, his eyes full of determination.

Wang Dong felt his intentions and her smile became even gentler: "Thank you, Yuhao. With you by my side, I am not afraid of anything." She leaned on Huo Yuhao's shoulder, closed her eyes, and felt the tranquility and warmth of the moment.

Wang Dong introduced to Huo Yuhao: "The first floor of our Haotian Castle is where the sect members live. The second floor is where guests are entertained and the sect elders live. The third floor is where my eldest father, second father, and I live."

"Sect? Haotian Fort? Haotian Sect!" Huo Yuhao was shocked, and finally understood why the words Haotian Fort looked familiar to him. Yes! Haotian, isn't that Haotian Sect?
In the books of the Sea God Pavilion, he had seen a detailed introduction to the Haotian Sect. In the data collection of various sects by Shrek Academy, the Haotian Sect was ranked at the top, on par with the Body Sect, which shows how powerful it is.

According to the introduction in the classics, the founding time of the Haotian Sect is even older than that of Shrek Academy. It is also an ancient sect spanning more than 10,000 years, and even longer than the history of the Body Sect. As early as 10,000 years ago, the Haotian Sect was known as the first sect of weapon spirits. Even the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, which was once prominent at the time, was inferior to it. Huo Yuhao never expected that his good brother was actually from the Haotian Sect. So from this point of view, the hammer of his second spirit is naturally the Haotian Sect's sect spirit, the Haotian Hammer.

According to records, Tang San, the leader of the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils and the founder of Tang Sect, was from Haotian Sect. His father was called Haotian Douluo. He was extremely powerful. Tang San also had twin martial spirits. One of them was Haotian Hammer.

But according to the records of Shrek Academy, about a thousand years ago, the Haotian Sect gradually faded out and disappeared. No one from the sect was seen walking on the mainland, and it was judged that it had gradually died out. Unexpectedly, the Haotian Sect not only did not disappear, but also had such a miraculous castle in this cloud depths.

Wang Dong looked at him with a half-smile, and said, "I just guessed it now! You are really slow to warm up."

Huo Yuhao smiled bitterly and said, “You never gave me any hints, so how could I possibly guess it? Wang Dong, you come from a powerful and ancient sect like the Haotian Sect. I’m under a lot of pressure! Let’s…”

Before Huo Yuhao could finish his words, Wang Dong gently interrupted him with a playful and gentle look in his eyes, "Yuhao, don't say that. We are lovers and partners. No matter where I come from, this should not be a reason for you to feel pressured. Do you know? When I first met you, I felt that you were a special person. No matter where you come from or what your background is, you are Huo Yuhao, the Huo Yuhao that I know."

Her voice was gentle and firm, as if conveying an unshakable belief. Huo Yuhao looked at her eyes that were shining with warm light, and the pressure and anxiety in his heart miraculously dissipated at this moment. He nodded and sighed softly: "Thank you, Dong'er. You are right, I shouldn't feel pressured by this. The friendship and cooperation between us are based on mutual trust and common struggle, not on each other's origins and backgrounds."

Wang Dong smiled slightly and continued, "Although Haotian Sect is my family, it does not mean that I am stronger than you, or that there is any difference between us. In fact, it is because of your company that I have been able to come all the way to where I am today in Shrek Academy, and I can be more determined on this path. So, no matter what difficulties we encounter in the future, we will fight side by side and support each other."

Huo Yuhao's heart warmed up. He suddenly felt how lucky he was to have met Wang Dong and become her friend and comrade. He took a deep breath and said seriously, "Don't worry, Dong'er. I won't be shaken by these external things. We are partners. I will use my strength to protect our dream with you."

Wang Dong nodded and smiled with satisfaction. "This is the Huo Yuhao I know. Well, now that you know my background, we have nothing to hide. If you have any questions, just ask." Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and asked, "Can you tell me more about the situation of the Haotian Sect? I learned from the classics of the academy that the Haotian Sect had retired a thousand years ago. This time when I saw your residence, I realized that the Haotian Sect had been maintaining its strength in secret. So, how strong is your sect now? Why did you choose to retire?"

Wang Dong was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "The retreat of the Haotian Sect was due to the turmoil more than a thousand years ago. At that time, the sect encountered an unprecedented crisis. In order to preserve the power of the sect, we decided to withdraw from the power center of Douluo Continent, hide in this isolated valley, and quietly accumulate strength. We have been waiting for a suitable opportunity to reappear on the continent. As for the strength of the sect..." A trace of determination flashed in her eyes, "Although our Haotian Sect has retreated for so long, we have never relaxed the cultivation and inheritance of martial spirits. The Clear Sky Hammer is still one of the most powerful weapon martial spirits on the continent."

Huo Yuhao was shocked by what he heard, and his respect for the Haotian Sect deepened. He understood that the Haotian Sect's retreat was not due to weakness, but to protect the sect's foundation and wait for an opportunity to rise again. Just as the Tang Sect still stood firm after experiencing many storms, the Haotian Sect was also silently guarding its own glory in its own way.

Wang Dong continued, "Now, with the changes in the situation on the mainland, the Haotian Sect has begun to come out of seclusion again. My father is preparing for this, and I brought you back this time so that you can better understand my background and at the same time let us have a better understanding in future cooperation."

Huo Yuhao nodded solemnly. “Don’t worry, Dong’er. I will fully support you and the Haotian Sect. No matter how the future changes, we will face it together.”

Wang Dong smiled even more brightly. She gently held Huo Yuhao's hand and said, "Thank you, Yuhao. I feel much more at ease with you by my side."

“Then why did you bring me to the Haotian Sect this time? It can’t be just to let me meet your parents!” After a moment of warmth, Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered what happened this time.

“Of course it’s not that simple. I came back this time to ask my eldest or second father to help you get the spirit ring. The continent is not peaceful now, the Sun-Moon Empire is becoming more and more restless, and the Far North borders the Sun-Moon Empire. Now the academy has no time to take care of us, so we can only rely on my eldest or second father.” Wang Dong’er said seriously.

Huo Yuhao felt warm in his heart after hearing Wang Dong'er's words, and gratitude welled up in his heart. He knew that Wang Dong'er was so cautious because she understood the current situation and the importance of him obtaining the sixth spirit ring. After all, it was not easy for a level 60 spirit master to obtain a suitable spirit ring, not to mention that his martial spirit was the Ultimate Ice.

“Thank you, Dong’er.” Huo Yuhao said sincerely, “I really appreciate everything you have done for me. With the help of your eldest and second fathers this time, I will definitely work harder and live up to your expectations.”

Wang Dong'er smiled and shook her head, "Yuhao, we are partners and friends. Helping you is also helping myself. Besides, the stronger you are, the easier the challenges we will face in the future. Now that we have arrived at the Haotian Sect, you can rest assured. The strength of the eldest and second fathers are both Titled Douluo level masters. With them around, no powerful soul beast can threaten you."

Huo Yuhao nodded, and he was more confident in obtaining the spirit ring this time. He was shocked by the powerful foundation of the Haotian Sect, and also felt the support and care from his partner's family.

"So what should we do next?" Huo Yuhao asked, "Should we go directly to your eldest and second fathers, or do we need to make some preparations?"

Wang Dong'er thought for a moment and said, "My eldest and second fathers usually practice in the sect. I'll take you to meet them. They will definitely be very happy to know that we are back. In addition, let them know about your situation so that they can choose the most suitable soul beast for you."

"Okay, let's go over there." Huo Yuhao said, already looking forward to obtaining the upcoming spirit ring.

"Let me go first!" said Wang Dong.

The two smiled at each other, and then Wang Dong'er walked deeper into the Haotian Sect.

The third floor of Haotian Castle.

Wang Dong pouted and walked into a large room with a dissatisfied look on his face. In this large room, his second father was sitting there, and there was another middle-aged man sitting on the main seat.

The middle-aged man sitting in the front seat has long blue hair, hanging on his broad shoulders. His eyes are also blue. When opening and closing, his seemingly simple eyes have an indescribable look. special texture. It seems that there is a faint feeling that he can't suppress the powerful aura in his body.

His burly body was wrapped in a white outfit, and he was talking to the middle-aged man with black hair like steel needles.

"Uncle, second uncle, what's wrong with you? He is a guest from far away. Second uncle, what were you doing just now? What if you scared him?" Wang Dong started asking questions like a machine gun as soon as he entered the door.

The short-haired middle-aged man laughed and said, "My little Dong'er, you haven't been home for so long, and you get angry at your first and second fathers as soon as you come back. This is not right. As for your friend, if he can't even pass this test of mine, how can he be qualified to enter our Haotian Castle? He does have some ability, but he is still far behind our Xiao Dong."

Wang Dong immediately said in dissatisfaction: "What? You don't know him at all. Yuhao is outstanding. He also has twin martial souls, and the second martial soul is the ultimate ice. Didn't I tell you last time I came back? Don't you still believe in my vision?"
