Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao Returns from the Wasteland

Tianmeng's silence didn't last long. He quickly spoke up, "Alright, if your plan is beneficial to the God-Making Project, then we can give it a try."

"However, we have an agreement. If you fail to persuade Hyotei, then in order to ensure the implementation of the God-Making Plan, we will still proceed according to my original plan."

Even now, no matter how I think about it, I still find it hard to imagine what the place would be like if the plan you described succeeded.

Upon hearing this, the boy smiled and said, "It will definitely be different from the current situation..."

Just as Huo Yuhao was talking to Tianmeng, Elder Yi said, "I think I can help you. Although I am still very weak at the moment, it is obviously impossible for me to fight in my full strength."

"But if it's just about discussing and researching some issues, and communicating with you, then in my current situation, it won't consume much of my strength."

The boy didn't speak immediately, but Tianmeng spoke first, "You mean, you're coming to help?"

"What can you do? You can't be here just to kill time because you're bored in this Sea of ​​Spirit, can you?"

Even though Tianmeng could sense the profound aura emanating from Elder Yi, he still verbally expressed his dissatisfaction, remembering how the other party had just undermined him. Although he knew he couldn't defeat Elder Yi, he still felt unconvinced.

In response to Tianmeng's teasing remark, Old Yi simply said to him in an annoyed tone, "Big bug, I'm not as bored as you. My offer of help is not just empty talk."

"After hearing your plan just now, I have some new thoughts about the relationship between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts in that plan."

"In my past world, cultivators and magical beasts connected with each other in a different way than here."

"In my original world, we didn't need spirit rings to break through cultivation limits like we do here. We just had innate inner spiritual power and could improve our combat power by enhancing our external spiritual power. There were also many different ways to fight."

"As for the situation here, although the two worlds are different and the laws are different, seeing that the giant worm was able to choose to merge with you in this way, I think it is not absolutely impossible to change the relationship between soul masters and soul beasts in this world."

Hearing Elder Yi say this, Tianmeng looked at him with some surprise, as did Huo Yuhao beside her.

Then the young man spoke up, "If we can truly change the relationship between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts, it will definitely be of great help to that plan. I am very grateful to Elder Yi for helping us."

Upon hearing this, Elder Yi simply changed his tone and said with a smile, "Young friend, there's no need to be so polite. After all, this matter is still far from being finalized. It's just my idea right now, and we'll need time to know if it will be successful."

"At the same time, the reason why I am willing to help you is actually because of what you just said. Although I have lived for so long and experienced so many things."

"However, after hearing what you said, I really want to see what it will be like when your plan is actually realized."

"Besides, I've been in your spiritual sea for so long, and I probably won't be able to leave for a very long time to come, so I need to pay some rent."

Hearing Elder Yi's half-joking reply, the young man quickly said, "Elder Yi, you're too kind. Also, there's no need to call me 'young friend' or anything like that. Just call me Yuhao."

In response, the remnant soul of Elder Yi shook up and down slightly, as if to indicate his agreement.

Seeing that the two had finished their conversation, Tianmeng spoke to the young man, "Now that there are no unresolved issues, Yuhao, what are your plans for the future?"

"After all, it takes time to cultivate to level 20 in soul power. You haven't joined any academy or sect, so you have plenty of time, but you can't just stay here forever or wander aimlessly around the continent, can you?"

Upon hearing Tianmeng's words, Huo Yuhao calmly replied, "Brother Tianmeng, you're right. When we get back outside, I'll first put the coffin containing my mother into the storage soul tool I prepared earlier."

"That was originally my purpose in coming here: to really take my mother away from here."

"I just don't know where to bury my mother. I don't really know what kind of places she likes, what kind of scenery she likes to see, or where she would like to go."

"In my memory, my mother has always been by my side. She has never said anything for herself. Everything she does revolves around herself."

"Although I don't know where to bury my mother, it certainly won't be here, so I can only put her in the storage soul tool for now, and then bury her when I find a suitable place."

"After putting the coffin into the storage soul tool, I planned to head north to prepare for going to the far north when my soul power reaches level 20."

Tianmeng had no objection to this answer, but Elder Yi said, "Putting your mother's coffin in the storage space is somewhat inappropriate in my eyes."

"I know you're in a difficult situation, and I do have a way to help you resolve it. However, I don't know if you, Yuhao, would be willing to accept my solution?"

Upon hearing Elder Yi's words, the young man asked, "Elder Yi, what's your plan?"

"Why don't you listen to my story first, and then you can make your decision..." After saying this, Old Yi prepared to begin telling his story.

However, Tianmeng, standing to the side, retorted, "You have a story too?"

Upon hearing this, Old Yi said somewhat impatiently, "Isn't that obvious..."

After finishing speaking, Old Yi composed himself and continued telling his story.

The boy simply listened silently to this.

At this moment, Tianmeng listened to the other party's story. She had just told her own story, and now it was Elder Yi's turn to tell it, so Tianmeng was sure to listen carefully.

After all, in Tianmeng's eyes, listening to stories was much more interesting than listening to Huo Yuhao recite mathematical formulas in his head.

As for Elder Yi at this time, he was telling his story, from his youth to being betrayed by his lover, his parents being publicly executed, and then he began to take revenge, starting a war across the entire continent, killing all his enemies, causing widespread suffering and death, and earning him the title of the Holy God of the Dead.

Finally, he awoke from his slumber, gave the Eternal Heart to the knight, and then chose to vanish from that world.

This is a long story, and it is also the story of Mr. Yi's life.

After he finished telling the story, Tianmeng didn't make any jokes. Instead, she said to Elder Yi in a tone of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of deep emotion or reflection), "I never imagined you were so unlucky before..."

Upon hearing this, Elder Yi fell silent for a moment, then said, "I never expected to hear those words come from your mouth."

"Big Bug, although what you said is harsh, it is the truth. I never thought it would turn out like that. At that time, I had no idea what to do and could only watch my parents being executed..."

Then, Elder Yi adjusted his mindset and asked the boy, "So, Yuhao, how are you feeling? Are you willing to accept the help of this power?"
