Douluo Continent: Starting by controlling the Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult

Chapter 627 (Final Chapter) - Epilogue: You Are Her

boom!

A jet-black beam of light, a full hundred feet wide, pierced through the void and directly pierced through a Star-Eating Monster that was lunging at Yuzuriha!

The Allied forces, numbering less than a few thousand, were stunned by this turn of events and couldn't help but turn their attention to the object that had pierced through the Star-Eating Monster.

It was a dark halberd, its body covered with ferocious patterns, exuding a terrifying aura.

Amidst the dust, the young man lifted the girl, whose body was half-crystallized, her eight dark wings unfurling from her back like those of an angel.

It was as if I could hear Yuzuriha Aki's singing voice, or even more like an echo of Tachibana's shouts. It was her own unique companion of justice, the Demon King descending from the heavens in a furious and ferocious rage!

He couldn't save the girl in his past life, so how could he bear to let her die in front of him again this time?

"Qiu'er, it's me."

"Hao?"

Yuzuriha slowly raised her only movable arm and made a grasping motion in front of her.

She could no longer see, nor could she feel his breath or body temperature.

"I'm here, Qiu'er." Huo Yuhao grabbed her hand tightly, trying to keep his voice from trembling too much.

"I'm sorry..." Yuzuriha Aki said softly, "I can't sing for you anymore..."

"I'm sorry... I don't have time." Yuzuriha's smile was extremely poignant. Her nails dug deeply into Huo Yuhao's palm, and blood kept crystallizing and dripping from the corner of her mouth.

Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth and stared intently at Yuzuriha. At this moment, he didn't want to be some kind of Douluo savior. He was just an ordinary soul and didn't want to do anything to save the world. He just wanted to be with the people he cared about. Even if everything was destroyed in the end, he would at least have no regrets!

Yuzuriha looked at Huo Yuhao, as if she could see through the turmoil in his heart. She bit her lip and choked out, "But... I'm always so unwilling to admit defeat..."

I'm always so unwilling to admit defeat.

Huo Yuhao felt as if he had been struck by lightning. It was a familiar sentence. In that world many years ago, in that situation, the girl had said the same thing to him with red eyes. Her simple and stubborn tone made Huo Yuhao feel a heart-wrenching pain.

"What exactly do you mean by all this?"

Huo Yuhao trembled as he repeated the same sentence, staring at Yuzuriha Akira and murmuring, "Aki-er... I beg you, please stop saying it, okay?"

"If I don't say it... I'll have regrets." Yuzuriha's beautiful eyes were red, and tears welled up in them. She smiled gently at Huo Yuhao, a smile as poignant as a snow lotus about to disappear on an iceberg. Then, with her last bit of strength, she pressed her forehead against Huo Yuhao's and slowly closed her eyes.

……

Back when Huo Yuhao first learned the truth from the God of Destruction and began plotting against the Sea God Tang San, the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life, in order to successfully groom Huo Yuhao as their successor to their godhood, somehow managed to guide the remnant soul of a certain girl to the Douluo Continent through some mysterious soul connection. They then carefully nurtured it within a Destiny Soul Beast that took her form.

As Tang San said in the original timeline, Switzerland, which has only existed for 15,000 years, would not have much intelligence. Therefore, the Qiu'er that Huo Yuhao has always known is a clueless and naive girl with the appearance of a certain girl.

As the remnant soul's consciousness gradually revived, the auspicious beast slowly acquired the girl's personality, preferences, and feelings for Huo Yuhao.

This is not about possession, but a fusion of memories and emotions.

The mythical beast longed for the human world, and the girl wanted to see him again; the two hit it off immediately.

Guided by fate, the auspicious beast finally found Huo Yuhao with a group of beast kings when Huo Yuhao used the Evil Eye Tyrant to cause chaos in the Holy Spirit Cult.

She sang the songs they had listened to together, reuniting with him in this strange world.

The girl fulfilled her long-cherished wish, and then offered her remaining soul to the auspicious beast, allowing the beast to stay by Huo Yuhao's side in the identity of Yuzuriha.

Finally, in a sense, the auspicious beast became a second her. It inherited all the girl's feelings for Huo Yuhao.

From then on, Yuzuriha stayed by Huo Yuhao's side, accompanying him on his journeys to aid Tianhun, disrupting the Sword Debate Competition of the Proud Sword Sect, venturing into the Ten Thousand Year Ice Cave, storming the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event, participating in the Mingdu Tournament, and battling the Sea God Tang San...

She was present in every stage of Huo Yuhao's journey as the Demon King.

"You, you, you...you are!" Huo Yuhao's eyes widened suddenly, his eyes red-rimmed, and he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

"Finally... this time I'm dying in your arms..."

Distant memories welled up from the depths of her heart, and Yuzuriha murmured to herself. Then, the smile on her pretty face began to warm up, and her slender hands lost their strength and became increasingly stiff.

"The flowers blooming so proudly..."

"Ah...please tell me..."

"What do you see in the distance...?"

The ethereal voice, as if accompanied by a song from another world, echoed gently throughout every corner of the world. In the original Douluo Continent, the Sun and Moon Continent, and the far north, countless people raised their heads, looking in that direction as if sensing something. A nameless sorrow welled up from the depths of their hearts.

The latest novel is first published here!

An indescribable luster suddenly burst forth from Yuzuriha Aki.

Joy! The image of the young man kneeling on one knee, holding flowers in his hands, appeared in the light. His joyful emotions bloomed instantly, and the intense emotional fluctuations merged with her divine consciousness and power, suddenly pouring into Huo Yuhao's body.

Outrage! Fueled by a storm of public opinion, the tyrant destroyed her dignity!

Alas! Snow falls in June, and endless sorrow erupts. At this moment, the girl seems to see herself again when she was helpless and jumped off a tall building.

How wonderful! Happy memories are always so beautiful. They reunited in another world, went through thick and thin together, and their hearts melted together. How much joy this brings!

Hatred! Hatred is a painful emotion. When Tang San tried to control her and make her a tool for the Tang family to be sacrificed to Huo Yuhao, her hatred was boundless. Hatred drives people mad.

Evil! Evil and insidious—these are emotions that Yuzuriha herself does not possess, but she has experienced the evil of human demons countless times. In the realm of emotions, this is the darkest world, and at this moment, it seems that the filthiest things deep within her heart are being ignited by this evil.

Six emotions, six outbursts! The blossoming of emotions, the sublimation of the soul—

Two beams of light appeared behind Yuzuriha Aki, the light and shadow of two mermaid princesses blooming, sometimes overlapping and sometimes separating. Between the overlap and separation, a layer of six-colored halo also burst forth from Yuzuriha Aki's body. This halo became extremely strong and then poured into Huo Yuhao's body.

Just then, a colossal golden figure suddenly appeared behind the colorful halo. The golden halo, as if appearing out of nowhere, swallowed all six emotions from before. An indescribable blend of gentleness, exuberance, wildness, and longing surged forth instantly.

That is... the power of love that belongs exclusively to auspicious beasts!

She was no longer a soul beast, and could no longer perform sacrifices. Moreover, the sacrifice of a soul beast was no match for the numerous supreme god-king level star-devouring monsters.

The only thing she could do was to completely integrate the power of the God of Emotions that she had inherited into Huo Yuhao's body!

From this day forward, the souls of the auspicious beast and the girl will forever reside in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, never to be separated.

The story ends here, completing a closed loop. Yuzuriha is not Wang Qiu'er, but a complete imperial mythical beast that has gained human emotions. It is not her, yet it is also her.
