Douluo: This time we will rewrite our destiny

Yin Shuang nodded in response, then tapped the ground with her toes, turned around and headed towards the Imperial City. Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and spread out his palm again, with the dark dragon scale lying in his hand.

It would be great if he could talk to Senior Di Tian directly to explain the situation, he thought. Unfortunately, his spiritual detection sharing could not extend from the Sun and Moon Empire to the Star Dou Great Forest for the time being.

When people are nervous, their minds are always more active. At this moment, Huo Yuhao thought inappropriately that when Di Tian taught him to master the space method, only the physical body, soul power and tangible mental power could pass through the space channel he opened. But if he could allow the non-material mental power to flow through the space crack, he would not need to extend his mental power bit by bit, but could cleverly establish space channels in the world, and he could get twice the result with half the effort in terms of mental power coverage.

Thinking of this, he really couldn't wait to share his thoughts with Di Tian. However, he also knew that now was not the right time. There was a more urgent crisis to call on the King of Beasts.

He began to pour pills from the Mingyu Ring into his palm, just like pouring sugar beans. The reward for the Mingdetang project, the reward from the national treasury after Xu Tianling became regent, the pills for harmonizing soul power that Wang Dong had refined and distributed to everyone... In a blink of an eye, a large number of pills of different colors were suspended in his hand.

He had always controlled the degree of drug enhancement very well, and had once advised Hongchen and his sister on taking medicine, but at this moment he had to be prepared. Di Tian, ​​the majestic Golden Eyed Black Dragon King, would consume a huge amount of energy if he wanted to travel through the space cracks from the stars and land on the land of the sun and the moon. For this reason, a part of his power must be carried by Huo Yuhao's body.

It was no small matter to bear the pressure of the Beast God, but these huge quantities of mild pills could barely protect his meridians and prevent him from being seriously injured. As for the side effects of taking a large amount of medicine...if the effects of these medicines could be washed away by Emperor Tian's power and still leave side effects, they would also be divine pills, and more attention would be paid to them in the future.

When he swallowed the first pill, two golden and silver lights suddenly appeared in the sky, instantly dispelling most of the dark clouds and revealing a glimmer of dawn light in the sky of the Sun and Moon Empire. At the same time, the soul power contained in the two lights made him feel refreshed.

That was the terrifying pressure that only a ninth-level fixed-type soul guide could release, but it was not from the soul guides that Master Kong had shown him during class. What was this? He immediately used his spirit to detect and observe carefully, and found that on the front battlefield, even Zhongli Wu's glorious Bone Dragon King was forced to retreat again and again by this light.

At the other end of the battlefield, Huo Yuhao recognized the man standing next to Elder Kong, watching the scene from the silver moon divine light shield. That man was Ye Yulin. Although Ye Yulin did not directly lead the five soul guide groups known as the hands of the nation, he still had a good position in the army of the Sun Moon Empire; if the original competition had not been interrupted, he should have come to supervise the finals of the soul guide competition, and it was heard that the prize seemed to be a ninth-level fixed-type soul guide device.

Now, Huo Yuhao knew that what had caused Zhongli Wu and the Bone Dragon King to suffer setbacks and injuries was Ye Yulin's ninth-level soul guide: the Sun and Moon Divine Needle!
As soon as the Sun Moon Divine Needle appeared, the morale of the Worship Hall and the royal family was greatly boosted. It was usually very dangerous to activate the ninth-level fixed-type soul guide in the Sun Moon native land, because once the fixed-type soul guide was used, it would explode without distinguishing between friend and foe. However, under the comprehensive protection of the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield that changed with the environment, the Sun Moon Divine Needle was turned into a directional strike shell by Ye Yulin and Kong Deming.

Liao Mengkai stood at the front line of the position, being blown by the terrifying soul power wave, but not even a hair moved. His whole body exuded a layer of silver light that was close to his skin, as if illuminated by moonlight, and the evil soul masters under Zhongli Wu in front of him could only roll and burn under the burst of soul power, turning into ashes and dissipating in the dazzling light.

The Bone Dragon King cried out in pain, but it had no way to retreat, because Zhongli Wu was behind it, using his huge body to block the spirit power that might hurt him. Its empty eyes burned with a cold gray fire, which looked like a dangerous candle in the wind under the light of the Sun and Moon Needle.

However, the Sun and Moon Needle still failed to seriously injure Zhongli Wu. The Bone Dragon King was seriously injured, but Zhongli Wu pressed his palm on the top of its head, and Feng Ling's shadow immediately stuck to its spine. It struggled to raise its head and let out a heart-wrenching roar, like a woman's cry. The dual power of wind and fire gathered around it again, and then turned into a huge light wave, concentrating on one point and rushing towards the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield, as if intending to break through a single point.

Liao Mengkai shuddered, and the pitch-black soul armor covered his entire body. In his hand, the Devil God Sword martial spirit emerged. Behind him, the Horror Claw Soul Instructor Group once again activated the linked soul array.

Huo Yuhao, who witnessed all this, immediately set off for the battlefield. It was time. Even now that the Sun and Moon Divine Needle had been activated, Liao Mengkai was still no match for Zhongli Wu, who was already close to his limit. The linked soul guide array could only delay for a while. Elder Kong understood the situation. In order to shoot down Zhongli Wu, he would take advantage of the moment when the Bone Dragon King was injured and holding on to launch the Silver Moon Divine Light Wave, and then...

Huo Yuhao calmed down, grasped the dark dragon scales of Emperor Tian with his left hand, and reached out with his right hand. The white blade of the Moonlight Blade was already in his palm. He created a white crack in the air and walked in quickly.

……

"My dear children. By the time you see this, both he and I will be dead."

In the pale golden spiritual space, the white shadow of a woman stood in the middle, standing just like Xiao Hongchen remembered her when she was alive, with a more arrogant attitude than her father. When he was a child, Zui Hongchen always said that his wife was too strong. However, now he couldn't see her face clearly, and her silhouette became pure white, as if the world had just dug out a piece of her shape.

"Mom!" Meng Hongchen shouted.

Wang Dong stepped back calmly. Although she was also involved, she knew that now was not the time to get involved.

Meng Hongchen took two steps at a time and pounced on the silhouette in the light. Xiao Hongchen wanted to tear open her throat and ask her to come back. After all, it was probably just a spiritual shadow, and even if he hugged her, it would be in vain. However, he was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. The effect of the medicine Wang Dong gave him had worn off, and the pain of the serious injury swallowed him up again, making him unable to even squeeze out a word. He could only watch his sister pounce on her mother like a white bird, and then - hug her tightly.

His eyes widened slightly. Really... did he get it?

The mother was not from the Hongchen family. Her surname was Ye, and her name was Ye Chunyin. She was a native of the Sun Moon Empire. She had a family relationship with Ye Yulin, but they were not close relatives. The general family and the Hongchen family of Mingde Hall intermarried. This kind of marriage was not uncommon among the nobles, but what was rare was that in Xiao Hongchen's memory, his parents always said that they were in love freely.

"Azui and I are classmates who met at the Royal Soul Instructor Academy," Ye Chunyin once said this to the brother and sister when they were young. "His soul guide performance is better than mine, and my soul master performance is better than his. The teacher arranged for us to sit at the same table so that we can help each other. In the laboratory, I was in a mess and asked him for guidance. At this time, he always pretended to be arrogant. I was very unhappy, so I beat him up during the combat training..."

Those past events, Xiao Hongchen once thought they had disappeared along with his innocent childhood. Ever since his parents had an accident, Jing Hongchen began to train him as the next heir. From that time on, he had to bid farewell to his innocence and enter the complicated arena of power ahead of time.

However, now, wrapped in this warm golden light, he could actually recall all those lost past events one by one.

"Mom...what's going on?" Meng Hongchen raised her head and looked at Ye Chunyin's blurry face.

"Isn't it strange?" Ye Chunyin rubbed her head vigorously and walked towards Xiao Hongchen again. For some reason, Xiao Hongchen couldn't see her face clearly, but he could clearly feel that he was being watched.

"Seeing my shadow in Ah Zui's spiritual world is weird no matter how you look at it. Besides, you didn't see your father's spiritual sea at all, right?"

“...Yes.” Xiao Hongchen said.

Ye Chunyin leaned over to him, put one hand on Xiao Hongchen's head, and pushed aside his silver hair that was stuck in blood. His blood mixed with his father's blood, soaking half of his face and dyeing his hair wine red. However, in Ye Chunyin's hands, the bloodstains disappeared bit by bit, and the wounds were healing.

Then, Ye Chunyin bent her fingers and tapped Xiao Hongchen's healed skull lightly.

"Xiao, you are still like this! You can solve difficult problems very quickly, but sometimes you can't figure out simple ones. Whose head soul bone did you fuse with?"

Xiao Hongchen touched his temple belatedly. After the competition, he received this legacy called a reward, but he never really used its soul skills. For some reason, there was always an obstacle in his heart, and the soul bone seemed to be able to sense this obstacle and never responded to him. "Father... No, people who have their soul bones stripped away should not be alive." He muttered to himself, "What was that just now?"

"It was also Ah Zui," Ye Chunyin said, "It was his last consciousness before he died. He was trapped in this body over and over again. The Holy Spirit Church coerced and lured him, bewitched him, and finally he killed me - all of this is true. These are his last memories before he died."

"He killed me in a hallucination, and then the Holy Spirit Church deliberately cancelled the illusion to make him sober. When he saw my ugly dead body, he realized that he had caused these tragedies, and his mind was greatly shocked and something went wrong. In short, he went crazy."

"The Holy Spirit Church wanted to use this opportunity to completely brainwash him and make him a member of the Holy Spirit Church. In fact, they almost succeeded. However, the Ye family has produced several generations of generals. The Ye family contributed to the founding of the Sun Moon Empire. Even though I am a distant relative, the family did not hesitate to give me various soul guides to save my life."

"Although most of them were destroyed by Ah Zui who was under the spell! But when I took these treasures, I told the head of the family that the Sun Moon Empire is now facing internal and external troubles and many powerful people are gathering. If I have to die, these things may not be able to save my life. Otherwise, you should give me something that can handle my affairs after my death."

As she spoke, she held out a solid object from her ethereal white figure. It was a wedding ring, and at this moment, the gemstone on the ring face was shining with the same light as her shadow.

"When I died, this thing left behind a portion of my soul and mental power at the moment of my death. So, I became half a ghost, and I watched as the people of the Holy Spirit Church were about to brainwash your crazy father."

"Wait," Meng Hongchen covered her mouth, "Mom, could it be that..."

"I entered his spiritual sea and awakened his last bit of lucid consciousness. He knew that the situation was irreversible and wanted to avoid becoming a lackey of the Holy Spirit Church. So he made an extreme choice: he sealed me in his spiritual sea, and then - let the spiritual sea explode."

When Ye Chunyin said this, Meng Hongchen's hands covering his mouth began to tremble, Xiao Hongchen's face turned pale as paper, and even Wang Dong, who was listening from afar, took a breath.

Ye Chunyin's voice became sad, as if the death just now was not a pity as a martyrdom, but what happened next made her sad. She said:
"I thought it would end here. Ghosts don't have too many obsessions to stay in the human world. Since he sealed me and I couldn't leave, I would go with him. However... the Holy Spirit Church... Zhongli Wu, he, did not let go of Azui's body. The sea of ​​​​spirit exploded, and the body was very tragic. Even the evil soul masters around him were killed or injured. In order to make up for the fighting power killed by him, Zhongli Wu used the secret method of the evil soul master to refine your father's broken body again. The sea of ​​​​spirit could not be reconstructed, so he captured the last consciousness of Azui before his death and filled it into this body."

"So I continued to hide and live here. In order to prevent his head soul bone from being refined by Zhongli Wu, I kept it in the ring. I found an opportunity to temporarily seize this body and found a way to pass it to Grandpa, your grandfather, in the form of a relic."

After that, she leaned close to Xiao Hongchen's ear and said in a voice that Meng Hongchen couldn't hear: "It's okay, Xiao. You did a good job. You helped us get rid of it."

"Mother……"

He finally stretched out his shaking hand and tried to grab his mother's sleeve, like a lost and confused child. The white mother's figure shook his hand back vigorously.

"Now that I've met you, I can finally make arrangements for my final affairs. Oh, I never thought that the treasure I asked for so casually would be used by me for so many years..."

She looked at the children tenderly:
"I thought I would never see you grow up."

Meng Hongchen finally let out a sob from her palm. Under her mother's gaze and touch, her shoulders trembled, and the grief brought by all the shocks hit her delayedly. Her eyes were red, and tears were swirling inside. She blinked frantically, still habitually not wanting to cry in front of her brother. She always told herself to be strong, to prove to her brother and grandfather that she was independent and self-reliant, and not to become weak in front of her family.

"Cry." Xiao Hongchen's voice was also choked with sobs, "Mom is here, it should be okay for us to cry for a while."

"Yes," Ye Chunyin said, "Meng, you must have worked hard these years."

Amid Meng Hongchen's wailing, Xiao Hongchen's eyes also blurred. Through his tearful eyes, he felt the barrier between his skull and himself melt away, and his soul power was re-integrating into his body, removing the darkness he had absorbed during the fight to the death, and refining the purest gold element in his body, as if his father had stroked his head and patted his shoulder encouragingly in the past on the training ground.

"Laugh, don't be too proud," Zui Hongchen said, "although you will definitely become a great person in the future."

Wang Dong watched all this from afar, and she felt a little sour in her nose. Thinking of her childhood that could hardly be called a family, and her father whom she hated, at this moment, while she felt happy and sad for the Hongchen family, she also seemed to be burned by such a warm light, and just wanted to turn around.

However, before that, she saw Ye Chunyin waving at her.

"...Auntie?" Wang Dong waved his hands blankly, "I'm just, uh, passing by, don't bother with me--"

"Come here, kid." Ye Chunyin encouraged, "I saw you helping that silly kid Xiao. It was really a big help. It would be hard for him to do it alone. You two have a good relationship, right?"

"That's just..." Wang Dong paused, still shrugging his shoulders in embarrassment. "Sorry, Auntie, I really don't know much about family matters... I don't know much about my parents, so being here with you is a bit of a downer, and I can't say anything sympathetic."

"Come over if I tell you to," Xiao Hongchen interrupted her, "Why are you talking so much?"

"Just like us, this is the only time," Meng Hongchen stretched out his hand to her, "think of it as a hug from your mother."

Under Xiao Hongchen's gaze, Wang Dong hesitated, but finally took a step towards them. She walked to Ye Chunyin's side, looking at the white silhouette in front of her, unable to imagine her face. She had never known what her mother looked like, but at this moment she felt that all mothers in the world should be like this.

She remained silent and let Ye Chunyin's empty arms embrace her.

……

When Huo Yuhao stepped out of the space crack, he suddenly remembered the test he had seen when he broke through his original martial spirit. In that illusion, the seriously injured Hong Chen siblings waved goodbye to him and told him that they had to deal with family matters alone.

Such a future... can definitely be avoided. Thinking of this, a warm current surged in his heart. As if he had gained strength, he raised his head and met the eyes of Zhongli Wu and Ye Xishui. (End of this chapter)
