Douluo Continent: Outwitting the Ceiling of Wisdom - Yuhao Faks His Death for Ten Thousand Years

Chapter 78 Heaven Dou City Spirit Tower Execution Department

Ye Hui? Could she be—Yuan En Ye Hui's mother?

Huo Yuhao remembered that in the original work, Yuan Enye's mother had unfortunately passed away.

"She's still alive? — What an unexpected turn of events."

Upon discovering this information, Huo Yuhao readily agreed and exchanged contact information with Ye Hui, who was still alive and a member of the Federation's Dark Army.

"That older sister looks so cool!"

As soon as Huo Yuhao and his family left the train, Meng Hongchen couldn't help but enthusiastically offer his comments.

"Wearing a black military uniform—she must be a member of the Dark Division, the extremely mysterious military subsidiary of our Sun Moon Federation."

After returning to his seat, Xiao Hongchen thoughtfully continued, "Based on Yuhao's assessment just now, she is still a genuine seven-ring Soul Saint—"

Tsk tsk, Yuhao's judgment is definitely correct. Just standing there, the aura he exudes is already quite intimidating.

However, since she's from the Dark Guard, could she be an evil spirit master?

As soon as Xiao Hongchen finished speaking, Ye Guyi frowned slightly and slowly shook her head: "She shouldn't be considered an evil soul master, as she doesn't have that repulsive, chilling aura of evil soul masters. However, her aura still gives me a feeling of—"

At this point, Ye Guyi paused slightly, seemingly carefully considering the right adjective.

"There's a feeling that something is inherently at odds with my power, that we clash with each other."

Huo Yuhao smiled gently upon hearing this, lightly grasped Ye Guyi's fair hand, and softly explained, "This is normal, Ye'er. It's because her martial soul is the Fallen Angel, which happens to be the opposite of your Holy Angel martial soul."

Upon hearing this, Ye Guyi first raised her eyebrows in surprise, then nodded slightly as if suddenly understanding: "No wonder, so that's how it is—"

And so, the Silver Moon high-speed soul-guided train traveled smoothly for another hour and a half, and Huo Yuhao and his group finally arrived at their destination—Heaven Dou City.

Tiandou City is a famous historical city on the continent. After the Sun and Moon Federation unified the continent, in order to preserve the original appearance of the ancient city and to respect the wishes of the local citizens, a decree was specially issued: the height of all buildings in the city shall not exceed fifty meters, which is strictly limited to ten stories or less.

This is why you won't find modern skyscrapers here; instead, you'll find many ancient trees that have stood the test of time, some well over fifty meters tall, adding a sense of history and vitality to the city.

After getting off the car, Huo Yuhao and the others, who were still full of energy, did not rush to the hotel they had booked to settle in.

They planned to stroll around this unique ancient city for a while before heading to the Spirit Tower Execution Department of Tiandou City to settle the tasks they had completed on the Soul Guidance Train that day.

Then, I will accompany Xiao Hongchen to the Blacksmith Association in Tiandou City to keep our appointment with the master craftsman Zhenhua.

"The historical atmosphere here is so strong." Meng Hongchen walked down the street arm in arm with Huo Yuhao, her eyes constantly taking in the ancient and elegant buildings around them.

"Yes." Huo Yuhao also walked forward, curiously admiring the unique scenery of Tiandou City.

But at the same time, the thoughts surging within him were completely at odds with the peaceful and ancient scenery before him—

Ten thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye, and this is Huo Yuhao's second time stepping onto this historically rich city.

His first visit here was ten thousand years ago.

Back then, after the Sun and Moon Army swept through and conquered the old capital of the Heavenly Soul Empire, he personally took charge of the post-war governance and reconstruction.

This is because, in the process of expanding and conquering foreign countries, the Sun and Moon Empire, as the aggressor, inevitably did many dishonorable things.

Such incidents are especially likely to occur after a large army has captured the enemy's capital and entered the city.

Although the Sun Moon Empire's military discipline was relatively strict, many soldiers who had experienced repeated bitter battles inevitably developed a sense of indulgence after capturing the capital of the Heavenly Soul Empire, and wanted to do some reckless things.

Especially the former Soul Master Corps—those units that Huo Yuhao personally transformed into the Soul Master Heavy Armored Combined Brigade—possessing formidable Soul Masters.

It was precisely for this reason that Huo Yuhao, who was highly respected in the Sun Moon Empire and was known as the "Chief Architect of the Sun Moon Empire," personally came to Tiandou City to oversee the aftermath, strictly enforce military discipline, and do his best to protect the innocent people in the city from harm.

After strolling around for a while, everyone got tired of seeing buildings with similar styles.

So, Huo Yuhao and his group hailed a taxi and prepared to head to the execution department of the Spirit Pagoda in Tiandou City.

Spirit Tower of Heavenly Dou City, Execution Department Hall.

Every time Huo Yuhao stepped into the execution hall of the Spirit Pagoda, he had a strange feeling—this place was practically the Adventurers' Guild of Douluo Continent.

However, compared to the loosely structured adventurer guilds in Western fantasy worlds, the Spirit Tower Executive Department is undoubtedly much more formal and rigorous, more like a well-established "Soul Master Mercenary Guild".

Compared to the execution hall of the Spirit Pagoda in Donghai City, the scale of the one in Tiandou City is significantly more impressive.

This is, after all, a major branch of the Spirit Pagoda in an ancient capital with tens of thousands of years of history. It is densely populated and has many Soul Masters coming and going, so the hall is particularly spacious.

Huo Yuhao's gaze swept across the hall, and he saw huge soul guidance screens hanging on the walls around the hall.

The screen kept scrolling with various missions: hunting evil spirit masters, quelling spirit beast riots, escorting important supplies, and exploring dangerous secret realms.

The task levels are clearly distinguished, ranging from white to red.

Soul Masters wearing masks and cloaks can be seen everywhere in the hall.

Most of the executors who join the executive department hope to conceal their identities and protect their privacy.

Looking around, some people covered their faces to conceal their presence, while others walked among them with their faces open; some wandered around alone, while many executors gathered in small groups, discussing their missions in hushed tones.

The atmosphere in the hall was both free and open, yet carried a subtle sense of solemnity.

On one side of the lobby, there are rows of self-service kiosks.

Soul Masters can easily view tasks, accept commissions, and settle contribution points with just a tap, as conveniently and quickly as checking credits in the academy.

On the other side is the task handover and contribution point exchange window.

The staff at the Spirit Pagoda responsible for registration were mostly expressionless, yet their efficiency was astonishing. They completed the task handover and received the exchanged items without uttering a single unnecessary word.

Various levels of soul power fluctuations subtly circulated in the air. Among them were newly recruited white-level members who had just joined the Execution Department, as well as seasoned purple-level and black-level Executioners with profound auras and considerable strength.

Of course, with the authority and rules of the Spirit Pagoda in place, even a Red-level Executor at the Title Douluo level would never dare to cause trouble here.
