In Douluo Continent, I am the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Little cousin, you've disappointed me so much. I traveled all the way to Shrek City... no, I mean Lingbing City, to deliver intelligence to you, and you treated me with such coldness. Waaah, you little ingrate."

Aying turned her head to the side, forced out two tears, and deliberately made a pitiful appearance.

Huo Yuhao put his hands on his hips and looked at the girl in front of him with disdain.

This woman... she has no moral bottom line whatsoever. She's capable of anything to become a god. Huo Yuhao won't be fooled by her appearance.

After a moment of silence, A-Ying wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked at Huo Yuhao's face, and said with a smile, "Alright, enough acting. Let me share with you the information I just got. It is said that... the Sea God Tang San has run away with his little sister Xiao Wu. Fearing that this would cause turmoil in the God Realm, Life and Destruction invited the Golden Dragon King Gu Yuexi out and made her their master, letting her take charge of the situation."

"As soon as Gu Yuexi emerged from the mountain, she directly slew the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, and used the Golden Dragon King's primordial fire to refine the souls of those two licking beasts, making them wish they were dead!"

"Most importantly, Gu Yuexi did not fabricate any charges against those two licking beasts. The rebellious alliance, led by the Shrek Five Monsters, did not dare to reason with that crazy woman. They could only submit to her strength and return to their posts. After all... they did not want to follow in the footsteps of those two licking beasts."

Huo Yuhao said thoughtfully, "So... the Soul Beast race is going to return to the God Realm?"

"That's not necessarily true," A-Ying chuckled. "Huo Yuhao, do you really think the Golden Dragon King Gu Yuexi and the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena have a good relationship? Hmph, if you had a twin brother, and you could become the true master of the Douluo God Realm by devouring him, what would you... do then?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's expression suddenly changed. He naturally understood that blood ties were completely useless in the face of tangible benefits.

"You don't know, do you? Before Tang San left, he left behind a puppet-like energy body that would automatically dissipate in two years. It was used to hold the positions of Asura and Sea God. He paid a price to have a certain god temporarily take control of these two positions and pass them on to someone disguised as other positions."

After saying that, Aying slowly got up and walked towards the gate of the mansion.

Watching Ah Ying's receding figure, Huo Yuhao's eyes grew increasingly deep. He knew very well that in the God Realm... the only non-royal deity who seemed to be closest to Tang San was a certain first-level deity who had eight wives.

"Damn it! That bastard Tang San! Even after he left, he didn't forget to trick me. His heart is despicable, his heart is truly despicable!"

After figuring out the key point, Huo Yuhao cursed Tang San a thousand times in his heart. He didn't think Meng Bingyu was deceiving him. Lin Huiqun hadn't given up her identity as the Sea God's servant and still had the qualification to communicate with the God Realm. There was no need to tell such an easily exposed lie.

If that's the case, then what should Huo Yuhao do next?

As Chen Yu said, the Soul Master world needs an outlet. No matter who inherits the Sea God's position, after the interplane war ends, even if the Bright Moon Plane wins the final victory, the new Sea God will be purged.

No way! Huo Yuhao absolutely cannot take the blame for Tang San!

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao flashed forward and hurriedly blocked A Ying's path.

"Cousin Bingyu... oh no, Senior Aying, please show me the way, considering we fought side by side."

Huo Yuhao hurriedly grabbed A Ying's small hand, twisting his body wildly and acting like a spoiled little girl.

Aying: ? ? ? ? ?

Likes to act cute and coquettish? Haha, if you cut that thing off and put on a princess dress, I bet a lot of people would buy it.

"Let's make a long story short," A-Ying said calmly. "The Haoyue Plane really didn't expect that the Ningyun Sect and the current Lingbing Pavilion could put aside their past grievances. Although the alliance is no longer there, they are both able to fight against external enemies with all their might. This has caused many of their tasks to be unable to be carried out, and the progress of occupying the Douluo Plane has come to a standstill."

"For this reason, the higher-ups of the Bright Moon Plane came to me and asked me to persuade you, Great God King Huo, to submit to the Bright Moon Plane. As long as you agree to submit, the Bright Moon Plane will win this interplane war. No matter what you have done in the past, they will not only forgive you but also make you the ruler of the Eastern Region."

"What is the position of Lord of the Eastern Region?" Huo Yuhao asked subconsciously.

Aying chuckled and said, "That's all for the future. You need to decide whether you want to submit to the Bright Moon Plane first before I tell you exactly what the position of the Lord of the Eastern Region is."

As she spoke, Aying placed a jade pendant into Huo Yuhao's hand.

"My identity is rather special, and I can't stay in Lingbing City forever. Here, if you've made up your mind, just crush this jade token, and I'll come looking for you immediately."

After saying that, Aying walked out of the Huo residence without looking back.

Just as A-Ying left the Huo residence, Huo Tianling emerged from his room.

"Huo Yuhao, are you really planning to switch allegiance and go to the Bright Moon Plane?"

As she spoke, Huo Tianling strode forward and gently placed her hands on Huo Yuhao's shoulders, giving the impression that she was about to snap his neck at the slightest provocation.

Feeling a chill emanating from behind him, Huo Yuhao quickly changed the subject, "Ahem, Tianling, let's not talk about this for now. Tell me... are all the things A-Ying said true?"

Please... add to your favorites (69 Bookstore!)

"Nine-tenths true, one-tenth false," Huo Tianling scoffed. "Someone of A-Ying's caliber... hmph, they'll mix a lot of lies into a lot of truth, making it hard for you to tell the difference. But... it's probably true that Tang San ran away with the bucket, trying to shift the blame onto you."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao subconsciously frowned, feeling extremely distressed. He had a feeling that... A Ying had deliberately released this information to make him betray the Douluo Continent.

But... what did that woman, A Ying, gain from Huo Yuhao's betrayal of the Douluo Continent?

Now that Gu Yuexi is in power, even if the Sea God Pavilion is completely destroyed, can the Ningyun Sect still "dare to change the world"?

If the Sea God Pavilion were to rise from the ashes, and Huo Yuhao successfully inherited the positions of Asura and Sea God, escaped the purge of the Soul Master world, and ascended to the God Realm, would the current God Realm ruler, Gu Yuexi, be able to tolerate him?

Given his past actions as the Great God King Huo, there was absolutely no way he would seek refuge with Gu Yuena in the Star Dou Great Forest!

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao took a deep breath. He then realized... he had exhausted all paths to becoming the Great God King Huo! (End of Chapter)
