Douluo Continent: The Underworld Emperor Halosa Lets Three Fly

Chapter 303 I don't have a disciple like you.

Dai Yuhao, Rong Nianbing, Ji Dong, Lie Yan, and Zhou Weiqing, five God Kings from the Douluo God Realm, aggressively confronted the only remaining members of the Samsara God Realm: Ilex, Ye Lan, and the Demon Emperor who had just suffered serious injuries.

The numerical advantage gave Dai Yuhao some peace of mind. He had to clear the obstacles for his father-in-law and end this "battle to reclaim the homeland" as soon as possible.

His gaze turned icy as he looked at the grey-robed mage, the elementally active woman in her tight-fitting clothes, and the weakened black-robed god of death opposite him. His voice carried a deliberately crafted sense of righteousness, attempting to define the nature of the battle: "You usurpers dare to obstruct the return of the divine realm? Today is the day you all meet your end!"

In his and most of the God Kings of the Douluo God Realm's understanding, they were the rightful and returned masters of this star field, while Harosa and his men were nothing more than bandits who stole their homeland while they were away.

They are the righteous crusaders.

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than the gray-robed mage opposite him, who had remained silent all along, slowly raised his head. Beneath his hood, two flames of soul seemed to burn quietly, and an aged yet strangely penetrating voice rang out, directly uttering a name that sent a shiver down Dai Yuhao's spine: "You... are Huo Yuhao?"

Huo Yuhao!

This surname, like a key sealed deep in memory, instantly unlocked a rusty door!

He hadn't been called by this surname for far too long! It was the surname of his mother, the ill-fated Huo Yun'er!

It is the surname that runs through all his struggles, fights, and humiliations in the early stages of Douluo Continent! It is the past that he almost deliberately forgot after becoming the God of Emotions and inheriting the glory of the Dai family!

A hint of confusion and bewilderment flashed in Dai Yuhao's eyes. He stared blankly at Electrolux, instinctively not refuting the other's use of the surname "Huo" to address him, but instead asked with deep doubt, "Who—are you?"

Electrolux did not answer immediately, but instead did something that surprised everyone.

His body, shrouded in a gray robe, moved slightly, and a solid soul, exuding wisdom and an ancient aura, slowly separated from the undead skeleton that served as its vessel and manifested in the starry sky.

It was the image of an old man with white hair and beard, a gaunt face, and deep eyes that seemed to contain an endless ocean of knowledge. He wore a simple mage's robe and held the Eternal Staff, which had evolved into a super artifact. He had an otherworldly air and extraordinary demeanor.

The moment Dai Yuhao saw this phantom of a soul, he was struck as if by a bolt of lightning, and his whole body froze!

Those bright eyes widened in shock, disbelief, and—a hint of a tremor from the depths of his soul that he himself was unaware of!

This figure—this aura—even after ten thousand years, even as a god-king, he could never forget it!

"Old Master Yi?!" Dai Yuhao's voice trembled uncontrollably, filled with an almost delirious disbelief. "Is it...is it you?! You're still alive?!"

Faced with Dai Yuhao's outburst, Electrolux's soul slightly raised its head, revealing a look of reminiscing about the past with a deliberately crafted sigh. In a melodious and even slightly childish tone, it loudly recited: "Holding the sun and moon in my hands and plucking stars from the sky, there is no one like me in this world."

Then, as if remembering something, he added an even more whimsical remark, a stark contrast to his otherworldly image: "Magic, magic head, honk! My name is Electrox, remember that."

After finishing his recitation, Electrolux put his hands behind his back, tilted his head at a 45-degree angle to look up at the starry sky, his long gray hair and beard swaying slightly, looking utterly smug as if he were still as dashing as ever.

This sudden, out-of-place action caused Ye Lan, standing beside him, to put his hand to his forehead and let out a helpless sigh: "That old rascal, he's hopeless!"

She couldn't help but shout, "Teacher! What are you doing?! They're here to attack us! Why are you putting on an act in front of the enemy?!"

Even the Demon Emperor, whose breathing was unsteady, had a strange glint in his cold eyes as he looked at Ye Lan and asked in a low voice, "Elder Yi—has he always been like this? Didn't you ask Lord Life to—take a look at him?"

Although Ye Lan and the Demon Emperor felt incredibly helpless and embarrassed by Ilex's untimely "showing off," Dai Yuhao, standing opposite them, was in turmoil and couldn't control his emotions!

He recognized him! Absolutely!

That unique spiritual energy, those seemingly illogical yet profoundly meaningful actions, and those two signature phrases (though the latter is a bit odd)! That's his teacher!

The necromancer Ilex, who appeared in his mind when he was at his weakest and most helpless, taught him necromancy, taught him how to conduct himself, was both a teacher and a friend, and ultimately chose to sacrifice himself to help him succeed!

"Elder Yi! It really is you! You—you're still alive?! That's wonderful! This is truly—wonderful!" Dai Yuhao's voice was still trembling, filled with the excitement and joy of regaining what he had lost. He even subconsciously took half a step forward, and most of the hostility he felt towards his enemies dissipated at that moment.

However, Electrolux slowly withdrew from gazing at the starry sky, his deep soul eyes looking at Dai Yuhao. Gone was the kindness and comfort of the past (or rather, the past as he perceived it). In its place was a calm scrutiny, and a faint trace of disappointment.

"Yuhao," Electrolux's voice regained its previous aged calm, yet carried a piercing power, "You've changed. You've become cowardly, lost your own color, and lost your own opinions. The you of the past, though your fate was fraught with hardship, possessed an indomitable spirit and your own convictions. Now—how could you willingly become a slave to the will of others, a mere wagging-tail-and-barking—domestic dog?"

These words were actually a summary and evaluation made by Electrolux based on the information provided by Harosa and his observations of Dai Yuhao's current situation.

He didn't really know this "Huo Yuhao," but that didn't stop him from using this "cognitive gap" to precisely strike at Dai Yuhao's mind.

The words "domestic dog" were like two red-hot steel needles, piercing deeply into Dai Yuhao's heart!

His face turned deathly pale instantly, his lips trembled, and he wanted to retort, but found that his throat felt as if something was blocking it.

He wanted to say no, he wanted to say that his father-in-law had been incredibly kind to him, he wanted to say that all of this was for the return of the God Realm—but Yi Lao's disappointed eyes and sharp questioning were like a mirror, reflecting something he didn't want to face deep in his heart. For ten thousand years, had he really gradually lost himself and lived entirely under the shadow and will of his father-in-law, Tang San?

"Old Yi, you—sigh, you don't understand—" In the end, Dai Yuhao could only utter these words in despair, his voice dry and filled with indescribable complex emotions.

He could neither explain nor refute it.

In that instant when he lost his composure, his emotions fluctuated violently, and his defensive awareness dropped to its lowest point, wisdom and peace were instantly replaced by a cold, sharp glint in the eyes of Electrox's soul!

"Now!"

He didn't even chant any incantation; he simply moved the Staff of Eternity in his hand forward seemingly casually!

In an instant, countless magical rays of light, which had been secretly prepared and were condensed to their extreme, containing the true meaning of different laws, burst forth like a flood, or like a venomous snake baring its fangs. With a speed that surpassed the reaction of thought, they instantly crossed space and struck the unsuspecting Dai Yuhao with unparalleled precision!

"Boom—!!!"

Elemental collapse, spatial tearing, soul tremors, and law erosion—terrifying magical powers of various attributes erupted simultaneously, completely engulfing Dai Yuhao!

A dazzling yet deadly light engulfed his figure, leaving only a short, painful groan.

This attack was too sudden and too ruthless! It completely exploited Dai Yuhao's unreserved trust in "Old Yi" and his emotional fluctuations!

As the light faded, Dai Yuhao's disheveled figure was revealed. His divine king armor was cracked in several places, a trickle of golden divine blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, his aura was chaotic, and his eyes were filled with pain, confusion, and the utter shock and sorrow of being betrayed by the person he trusted most!

Electrolux hovered in place, the Staff of Eternity still pointing in Dai Yuhao's direction. His aged voice was now cold and devoid of any emotion, completely shattering the last shred of hope in Dai Yuhao's heart: "Look carefully, Huo Yuhao. I am not your teacher, nor have I ever taught you. Xiao Yelan is my only true personal disciple."

He paused, his tone laced with undisguised sarcasm: "To forget even the most basic principles of magic—to never harbor any illusions about the enemy on the battlefield, and to always remain vigilant—such a dull-witted and weak-willed person, I, Elex, will not accept as a disciple."

Under the starry sky, Dai Yuhao stood frozen, as if struck by lightning, suffering not only physical injuries but also a severe blow to his spirit. Meanwhile, Electrolux's successful sneak attack instantly shattered the temporary stalemate between the two sides, igniting the fuse for a full-scale war of gods.

Rong Nianbing, Ji Dong, Lie Yan, and Zhou Weiqing were both shocked and enraged, and immediately unleashed their immense divine power, heading towards Electrolux.

Nightfall and the Demon Emperor pounced!

The great war has completely broken out!
