Douluo: The Holy Radiance of the Dragon King

Chapter 296 Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao: Brotherly Love and Harmony, Inquiry and Compensation

"What's going on? We're asking you to give us an explanation, at least say something! Do you intend to deny it in front of your disciples and followers?"

Seeing that Huo Yuhao's statue remained silent for a long time, Feng Zaixing frowned slightly, took out "The Secret of the Body" and reminded Huo Yuhao, "When we took back this 'Secret of the Body' from Shrek Academy, the Leng Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda witnessed it firsthand, and it was this person next to me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Leng Yaozhu, who was still kneeling to the side, raised her phoenix eyes and glared fiercely at Feng Zaixing.

Feng Zaixing pretended not to see it, assuming that it was just a casual remark that provoked the resentful woman's anger.

Having said all that, Huo Yuhao was too ashamed to speak without responding. A sigh came from the sculpture, followed by a deep male voice.

"In this matter, I have indeed let down the Body Sect and the old Poison Master from back then. At that time, I was focused on resisting the invasion of the Sun Moon Empire, protecting Shrek Academy, protecting Dong—protecting my wife, and temporarily forgot about this matter."

In the world of online gaming experts, Huo Yuhao looked embarrassed. He had indeed promised Du Busi to preserve the legacy of the Body Sect, and he had later undergone three awakenings after reading "The Secret of the Body Sect." However, there were simply too many other things to deal with back then—

Immediately afterward, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he recalled, "Back then, I was too busy taking care of myself to remember anything else, except for the 'Secrets of the True Form'..."

I entrusted it to my eldest brother, Beibei, and asked him to look after it for me.

Feng Zaixing nodded, agreeing with Huo Yuhao's words: "Yes, yes, that's right; then he left the 'Secret of the Body' in the Sea God Pavilion, and over the past ten thousand years, countless soul masters have seen it."

"The Shrek Academy is the same as the Tang Sect. It's a pity that the wisdom of our ancestors, who painstakingly recorded this, has been ruined by you."

"It's just that times have changed. Ten thousand years ago, those non-soul masters who saw this would have been hunted down to death one by one."

You provided Beibei with the seventh, eighth, and ninth spirit rings for a 20,000-year-old Heavenly Dragon Horse, and he turned around and canceled the commission you made. What a pair of good fellow disciples.

Brotherly love and respect, very spirited!

Logically speaking, your infighting has nothing to do with me, but messing around with our sect's heritage is simply outrageous!

I can't take revenge on those old acquaintances from back then, but Shrek Academy and Tang Sect are now enemies. Once Yun Ming is gone, I will make sure they disappear from the course of history.

And you, Huo Yuhao, you old bastard, since you've harmed my sect to this extent, when we meet again in the starry sky, I'll have no choice but to settle the score with you for what you did.

Huo Yuhao felt that Feng Zaixing's eyes were full of resentment and was speechless for a moment.

I remember that if a Tang Sect disciple betrayed the sect, he would have to take back what he had learned, which meant he would be crippled or killed. He had ruined the Body Sect's secret techniques, so it was only fair that Feng Zaixing didn't kill him.

Upon hearing this dark history of their patriarch, which was not recorded in any historical annals, the people of the Lingta Pagoda gasped in shock and dared not speak, while simultaneously displaying expressions of sudden realization—

No wonder Saint Douluo went crazy suppressing Shrek Academy and Tang Sect in his early years; it turns out there was this layer of grudge between them.

Everything makes sense now. This grudge was an irreconcilable feud ten thousand years ago, and it is enough to make the two forces never speak to each other again today.

Even Leng Yaozhu wondered if the reason why the Body Sect publicly revealed part of the "Secrets of the Body" and established an outer sect was because they knew that the ultimate technique was not unique and had no other choice.

Thinking that Feng Zaixing had not held a grudge against them over the years because of the patriarch's matter, Leng Yaozhu couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

"You're not going to talk, are you? Fine, if you won't talk, I'll talk."

Seeing that Huo Yuhao still chose to play dead, Feng Zaixing sighed and continued, "Let's talk about your so-called protection. Without the 'Secret of the Body,' the Body Sect's inheritance sequence is not as good as before."

"If it weren't for the extraordinary genius of later generations who created the 'Primordial Secret Method,' the Body Sect probably wouldn't have survived to this day."

"Your Majesty Lingbing, is this how the people of your Tang Clan fulfill their promises to our senior masters? Causing other families to be destroyed and wiped out? I have wanted to ask this question for a long time, and I urge Your Majesty to give me an answer."

Upon hearing this, not only did Huo Yuhao, who was far away in the Great God Circle, tremble a few times, but the people of the Spirit Pagoda who were watching also felt ashamed, while at the same time being very glad that their ancestor had not given them the "Secret of the Body" back then.

Someone has grown up to collect past debts; the more benefits Shi Tang received in the past, the more miserable he has become over the years.

As the current head of the Spirit Pagoda, Leng Yaozhu felt she should do something. Suppressing her anger, she put on a frank and generous smile and said to Feng Zaixing, "Palace Master, our ancestor had too many things to worry about back then. His momentary lapse in judgment was unavoidable. Fortunately, Heaven blessed the Body Sect, allowing it to revive. Now that our two sects are on good terms, how about my Spirit Pagoda provides some compensation to the Body Sect?"

The members of the Spirit Pagoda echoed this sentiment, with Xu Shengqun's voice being the loudest: "The Ancestral Master's affairs are our affairs! Whatever compensation you desire, Lord, the Spirit Pagoda will provide!"

Feng Zaixing didn't buy into their act at all, and said in a calm tone: "What compensation? My Body Sect is only a handful of cats and dogs thanks to Shi Tang's care.

99

"Apart from that kid Tang Wulin, everyone else is either a Soul Douluo or a Title Douluo, so your soul spirits are useless."

"Tang Wulin was originally a student of your Spirit Transmission Academy, so it is only right that you take care of him. I don't care about this little bit of money."

Strictly speaking, the Body Sect still has a group of disciples under observation distributed among the eight legions, but since outsourcing doesn't count, Feng Zaixing will not include them for the time being.

Leng Yaozhu and the Spirit Pagoda people fell silent, as if they had lost all their means:

Oh no, I forgot about this stupid thing!

Including Aruheng, the Body Sect already has three Limit Douluos. Such a sect would always be a top-tier force, but its personnel composition is extremely unhealthy.

"No, didn't you already open an outer sect and recruit more disciples?" Xu Shengqun looked up at the soul guidance screen, his face full of confusion.

Feng Zaixing rolled his eyes: "If recruiting disciples were so easy, would we need to expand our recruitment? Back then, there were only the four of us, master and disciples. The results of expanding were obvious; soon my disciple Ye Hui and his father joined, increasing our numbers by fifty percent. Isn't that enough?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Shengqun's lips twitched violently, and Leng Yaozhu's vision went black again and again.

It sounds like the Body Sect has been on the verge of extinction time and time again, but the two people you recruited are Limit Douluo and twin martial soul geniuses—should we say you have good judgment?

"As for now, we've decided to prioritize character when hiring. I've watched Tang Wulin grow up, but the character of the others is still under observation. We'll examine them more carefully after we're done with this busy period."

Feng Zaixing took out a glass of juice, sipped it to moisten his throat, and sighed, "For many years, we have fought in the south and north, chasing away countless evil spirits. All the elites of my Body Sect are guarding this Blood God Legion, fighting for the safety of Douluo Continent. Do you think it's easy for us?"

"From a young age, I shouldered the responsibility of reviving the sect. I planned and schemed, and worked tirelessly to finally raise the banner of the Body Sect again. But there were just too many battles, so much so that I never had time to stop and live my own life. Sigh—"

When the conversation turned emotional, everyone at the Spirit Pagoda felt deeply moved and saddened.

I hadn't really noticed before, but Feng Zaixing is actually quite young; he's the youngest member of the Yixin Society.

"If it weren't for my Body Sect and Feng Zaixing's unwavering support, countless evil spirits would have carved out their own territories, countless villains would have escaped the law, and countless wolves with ulterior motives would have been eyeing my Douluo plane covetously."

Alas, how many in this world truly understand my heart, how many can comprehend my intentions? ————

Feng Zaixing muttered to himself, his solemn expression like that of a perfect sculpture, leaving Leng Yaozhu and Huo Yuhao somewhat stunned.

One person initially thought he was exaggerating, but then realized he wasn't. The other was speechless with shock, thinking to himself that this "Son of Faces" was indeed no easy task.

By the way, what does this kid mean by "hunting down evil spirits"? Didn't the Holy Spirit Cult already—

As if sensing the confusion in Huo Yuhao's eyes, Feng Zaixing suddenly turned his head, his eyes shining brightly as he stared at Huo Yuhao. His voice suddenly became louder and his tone became more "respectful": "I almost forgot, there is something else I would like to ask you, Your Majesty Lingbing."

"you say?"

"How did you destroy the Holy Spirit Cult back then? Ten thousand years have passed, and the Holy Spirit Cult has not only risen from the ashes, but has also recovered to be even stronger than before."

Feng Zaixing stared directly at Huo Yuhao with his tiger-like eyes, making the latter immediately feel very uncomfortable.

Huo Yuhao, a member of the Great God Circle, broke out in a cold sweat, thinking to himself, "Did I leave behind so many troubles because I was too hasty in my ascension back then?"

Driven by his own thoughts, his gaze involuntarily fell upon Tang Wutong, who was covered by a soft blanket, revealing only her slender, snow-white shoulders.

When the affair involving the orange child was exposed, he was forced to ascend to immortality quickly. Looking back now, he realizes his funeral arrangements were far too hasty.

Miscalculation, miscalculation.

Thinking back to the past, which stemmed from his good father-in-law, Huo Yuhao quickly decided to trip him up behind his back.

He didn't have the guts to directly oppose Tang San; but he not only had the guts to do things secretly, he had a great deal of guts.

He cleared his throat and said to Feng Zaixing in a serious tone, "I am very sorry for what happened back then; I am currently in outer space and cannot offer you any help, but as the current master of the Spirit Pagoda said, the Spirit Pagoda can provide you with all the assistance it can."

"Since you haven't broken through to the Limit Douluo level yet, I think the Spirit Pagoda should contain the cultivation insights of past tower masters, which will be beneficial to you—"

After much deliberation, Huo Yuhao decided that using the resources of future generations was a good choice, and so he decided to sell the cultivation insights of the descendants of the Spirit Pagoda.

Upon hearing this, not only did Feng Zaixing's expression turn strange, but everyone in the Spirit Pagoda looked around and exchanged bewildered glances.

Huo Yuhao asked, completely bewildered, "What's wrong with you guys?"

Xu Shengqun replied weakly, "I would like to inform our ancestor that this acting sect leader of the Body Sect, His Majesty the Holy Venerable, is already the number one expert on the Douluo Continent. The cultivation experience of the Limit Douluo is useless to him."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "He might not only be invincible in Douluo Continent, but probably invincible across the entire planet. All of us combined wouldn't be a match for him."

"You Limit Douluo can't beat him, a Super Douluo? This—"

Huo Yuhao, the powerful figure in the Great God Circle, trembled, causing Tang Wutong to cry out in her sleep.

Huo Yuhao couldn't care less about that at the moment. He still remembered that after he received Long Xiaoyao's power and broke through to level 98, he still didn't have absolute confidence in defeating Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui. What was going on with Feng Zaixing? Level 97 was the number one on the continent.

Are the older generation of masters in this era really that useless?
