"Yun'er, I'm so sorry."
Chapter 431 You don't mean to use your son to climb the social ladder, do you?
The disciple of the Benti Sect exuded a strong killing intent, which naturally originated from Huo Yuhao.
He sat in the crowd, his azure eyes fixed on Dai Hao's figure standing on the stage, emanating a chilling aura.
After sensing the killing intent, Tang Wulin, sitting next to him, couldn't help but turn his head to glance at him.
Huo Yuhao's face was extremely ugly; he looked like a wild beast ready to pounce at any moment.
Tang Wulin immediately understood that the man in front of him was probably Huo Yuhao's enemy.
If nothing unexpected happens, this person should be related to the death of Huo Yuhao's mother.
He didn't say anything, but simply reached out and gently pressed on Huo Yuhao's wrist, signaling him to calm down.
On the competition stage, Dai Hao was unaware of the situation being observed by the audience. His gaze fell upon Huo Yun'er, and complex emotions surged within her blue eyes.
He took a deep breath and then spoke again.
"Yun'er, I have wronged you all these years."
"As a general of the Star Luo Empire, I am often unable to return home, and I have no idea how much injustice you have suffered over the years."
He paused for a moment, his voice carrying a strange sadness.
"Even the news of your death... I only found out about it not long ago."
"Over the years, I have failed in my responsibilities as a husband."
Dai Hao's voice lowered even further, and his eyes drooped down, as if he dared not look Huo Yun'er in the eye.
“I am not a good husband, nor a good father. I have let you and our child down.”
Huo Yun'er's expression didn't change after hearing Dai Hao's words, as if Dai Hao's words weren't meant for her.
She has absolutely no feelings for the man in front of her now. Even when she sees Dai Hao, memories from the past resurface. However, Huo Yun'er now only feels that she was too obsessed with love back then, and that she actually made her son suffer with her obsessive love.
Dai Hao raised his head, his gaze returning to her face.
"Fortunately, Dean Lin Feng gave me this opportunity and brought you back to life."
His voice carried a sense of relief, as if he had grasped at the last straw, and there was even a slight tremor in his voice.
"It gave me... a chance to atone for my sins."
In the realm of gods, Dai Mubai smiled and nodded when he saw Dai Hao speak.
His gaze fell on Dai Hao's figure, his tiger-like eyes filled with admiration.
"As expected of my offspring." (In the original novel of Dou Di Zhu II, this chapter describes Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing as being from Dai Mubai's lineage, that she is his child.)
His tone carried a sense of pride and satisfaction.
"To know one's mistakes and correct them is the greatest virtue."
Dai Mubai turned his head to look at Tang San, and then spoke.
"I hope they can clear up the misunderstanding and the family can live happily together again."
Tang San smiled and nodded in agreement. Although Huo Yun'er was not resurrected by him, the current scene could be said to be within his arrangement. He used Huo Yun'er to bind Huo Yuhao and Dai Hao, and at the same time, he also bound Dai Mubai to stand on the same boat.
As for whether Huo Yun'er would disown Dai Hao, Tang San thought it was completely impossible. After all, Huo Yun'er was driven by love, and people driven by love are the easiest to control.
Meanwhile, in the Star Luo Empire, Xu Jiawei's expression had changed. His gaze was fixed on Dai Hao's figure in the light screen, and his pupils were slightly contracted.
He originally thought that Dai Hao was going up to challenge, after all, Dai Hao was the Duke of White Tiger and the general of the Star Luo Empire. What else could he do but challenge when he stepped onto the stage at this time?
But now it seems... he went to meet his relatives?
Xu Jiawei's brows furrowed suddenly, a bad premonition rising in his heart.
If Huo Yun'er is Dai Hao's wife, then that means... Huo Yuhao is actually Dai Hao's son.
Xu Jiawei knew how powerful Huo Yuhao was. His mental soul skills were superb, and he also knew necromancy. He could be considered a one-man army.
Now Huo Yuhao is Dai Hao's son, and Dai Hao has apologized and admitted his mistakes to Huo Yun'er in front of the entire mainland...
Xu Jiawei's heart sank.
Dai Hao probably wants to climb up to Shrek Academy and then regain the throne of the Star Luo Empire, right?
Xu Jiawei had long been aware that the White Tiger Duke's lineage harbored ambitions to reclaim the throne.
However, it's impossible to do it openly.
After all, the Dai family of the Star Luo Empire lost the throne, which was truly a problem of the White Tiger lineage, while the Star Crown lineage saved the country from crisis and deserved to sit on this position.
This is something that the entire Star Luo Empire acknowledges.
But now... Xu Jiawei clenched his teeth, his eyes swirling with resentment.
If Dai Hao really needs to use this connection, would he refuse to give it up?
Even if Shrek Academy doesn't care about the affairs between their empires, Huo Yuhao is a member of Shrek Academy, and Dai Hao is Huo Yuhao's father. Once Dai Hao expresses his desire for the throne of the Star Luo Empire, and with Huo Yuhao's support, then Huo Yuhao's throne will definitely be in jeopardy.
Xu Jiawei's feelings were quite complicated at this moment.
He never imagined that the throne of their Star Crown lineage would end in such a ridiculous way in his hands, and he was naturally quite unwilling to accept it.
Xu Jiawei's gaze returned to Dai Hao's face on the light screen, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
My younger brother is truly a man of deep cunning.
Meanwhile, the Duchess of White Tiger, who had already escaped from the White Tiger Duke's mansion, felt even more disheartened upon seeing this scene on the screen.
She was still wearing the clothes she had worn during her escape, looking quite disheveled, her hair was messy, and her face was full of panic and resentment.
Now she was being hunted down by the traitors of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, and before she could even catch her breath, she saw her husband's affectionate look and his repentant expression towards Huo Yun'er. Her heart turned to ice.
That heartless man Dai Hao actually chose Huo Yun'er.
She's clearly the legal wife!
She was the one who was formally married into the White Tiger Duke's mansion!
He actually apologized to a concubine!
So, shouldn't we take responsibility for our actions next?
The Duchess of White Tiger's face was quite ugly; her hands were clenched into fists, her nails digging deeply into her palms.
She already knew about this. Putting aside Huo Yuhao's considerable strength, Huo Yun'er had already been resurrected. Therefore, they could bring Dai Hao greater benefits, while she, as the legal wife, became the superfluous one.
The Duchess of Baihu was filled with hatred, fearing that her two sons born to Dai Hao would also be doomed.
If she had known this would happen, she should have sent someone to kill Huo Yuhao when he left the White Tiger Duke's mansion.
At that time, Huo Yuhao was malnourished and only had a level 10 soul power. Entering the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for soul rings was nothing more than feeding soul beasts.
She had initially thought he was surely dead, but unexpectedly, he escaped.
A venomous glint flashed in the eyes of the Duchess of White Tiger.
"I hate it so much..."
Chapter 432 A family should be all together?
Looking at Huo Yun'er's expressionless face, Dai Hao couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
Huo Yun'er's expression was completely different from what he had expected.
In Dai Hao's imagination, Huo Yun'er should be in tears, should be throwing herself into his arms, should be crying and saying that he still remembers her, and that it's not his fault, that she has waited for him for many years, and that it's only right that they meet again.
After all, Huo Yun'er was deeply in love with him back then, and even though he was often away from home, she never uttered a single complaint.
But now...
Huo Yun'er stood there, her face calm and serene, as if Dai Hao's apology wasn't meant for her.
Dai Hao frowned slightly.
Could it be that he hasn't quite come to his senses since being resurrected? Did he not recognize himself?
However, that doesn't matter.
Dai Hao comforted himself, knowing that Huo Yun'er loved him the most. Perhaps this was just a side effect of being resurrected, and that Huo Yun'er would definitely fall in love with him again once the side effects wore off.
Just like when he fell in love with Huo Yun'er.
There is still an emotional bond between the two, and that bond cannot be easily erased.
Dai Hao took a deep breath, then shifted his gaze from Huo Yun'er to the direction of Guan Xingmu.
His gaze pierced through the crowd and landed precisely on Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao".
Dai Hao's voice carried a gentle intimacy, as if it were a father calling out to his son.
When Huo Yuhao heard the call, his body stiffened abruptly.
His gaze met Dai Hao's in mid-air, and the coldness in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest; on the contrary, it intensified.
The next instant, Huo Yuhao's figure vanished from the spot.
He appeared on the competition stage, standing opposite Dai Hao, with only a few feet between them.
"Don't call me that so intimately."
Huo Yuhao's voice was icy cold, filled with murderous intent. He would never forgive the man in front of him. It was because of his indifference that his mother was bullied and killed by the people of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.
"You are not qualified."
When Dai Hao heard these words, his expression stiffened slightly, and a complex light flashed in his eyes.
He had long expected Huo Yuhao to resist, but when he actually heard Huo Yuhao say those words, a bitter feeling welled up in his heart.
"Yuhao, I know there's a deep misunderstanding between us, father and son."
Dai Hao's voice lowered, carrying a sense of helplessness and resignation.
“Over the years, I have indeed wronged you and your son. If that wicked woman hadn’t deliberately concealed it, I would have had no idea that your mother had suffered so much, let alone that I had a son.”
When he said the words "poisonous woman," his tone carried an undisguised disgust.
The Duchess of White Tiger was hiding in a corner of the Star Luo Empire, watching this scene through a light screen. When she heard Dai Hao call her a "poisonous woman," she couldn't help but tremble.
She had known for a long time that Dai Hao might turn against her, but she never expected him to do so so quickly. They had been together for so long, and even if they hadn't done anything particularly meritorious, they had certainly put in a lot of effort.
One day husband and one hundred days of grace.
How dare Dai Hao be so heartless?
The Duchess of White Tiger's jaw clenched so tightly it was grinding, her chest heaving violently, as if she were about to explode at any moment.
This was especially true when considering their own situation: he was being chased by the servants of the White Tiger Duke's mansion, while Dai Hao was performing a family reunion act at Shrek Academy in the sky.
It was truly disgusting and made me feel nauseous.
At this moment, Duchess Baihu wished she could go up and slap Dai Hao across the face.
In the realm of gods, Dai Mubai listened to the voice coming from the light screen and nodded.
"Dai Hao is right. It's better not to marry at all than to marry a wife who is not virtuous."
"It's really not right that the Duchess of White Tiger has caused the father and son to become so estranged. Dai Hao's actions can be considered a timely stop to the damage."
Dai Mubai paused here, a glint of light flashing in his tiger-like eyes.
"However, it's alright to cut ties now, but when the day comes and you actually meet Duchess White Tiger, I hope Dai Hao will cut ties in person. Only in this way can he prove that he has found the right person. Otherwise, the damage will be very difficult to repair."
His tone became somewhat somber, carrying a hint of danger.
"It would be best... to make that woman pay some price."
Upon hearing Dai Mubai's words, Rong Nianbing, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but sigh.
"In the end, it's because Dai Hao didn't balance his marital relationship well. If he could do the same as me, things wouldn't have turned out this way."
Dai Mubai couldn't help but smile when he heard this. Everyone in the God Realm knew that Rong Nianbing had many wives, but... what he said was indeed true. If Dai Hao could be like Rong Nianbing, then there wouldn't be so many problems.
"It is true that Dai Hao neglected his family due to his years of fighting."
