Ju Zi fully informed Huo Yuhao of the intelligence she had gathered the previous day, and stated that she was prepared to apply to Xu Tianran to command the war. As for the matters that the Spirit Pagoda secretary should handle, others would help her share the burden.

Her explanation was, of course, that as long as she gained command, she would have the opportunity to kill her enemy, Dai Hao.

Huo Yuhao fell into thought, thinking that Ju Zi was indeed talented in warfare. Although Ju Zi's strategies were no different from those in the original work, they were quite useful in the Douluo Continent, which had an excellent matching mechanism.

After all, if Huo Gua hadn't seen through Ju Zi's scheme in the original story, allowing Dai Hao to launch a swift counterattack, the losses of the three great empires would likely have been even greater.

He looked at Ju Zi and said in a deep voice, "Ju Zi, I know that you have a deep-seated hatred for Dai Hao. You won't be able to get through this until you kill Dai Hao."

"I can actually understand you. Do you remember what I told you before? I also need to avenge Dai Hao, so I will go to the battlefield with you and kill Dai Hao!"

Ju Zi looked at Huo Yuhao and shook her head: "Yuhao, no matter what, Dai Hao is your biological father in the eyes of outsiders. Even if he has done many shameful things, you can't bear the reputation of killing your father! Otherwise, what will others think of you?"

You've already helped me a lot, now leave the rest to me. Let me kill Dai Hao!

"If you hadn't given me the position of secretary of the Spirit Pagoda, how many wars would I have had to fight to establish enough prestige, and how many resources would I have had to expend to win over those high-ranking military officials within the empire?"

Huo Yuhao thought to himself that what Ju Zi said made sense, but revenge was something that just didn't feel right if he didn't do it himself. Since he had inherited this body, he had to take on the karma. No matter what, he had to kill that beast Dai Hao.

After all, strictly speaking, Dai Hao was also one of the culprits who caused Huo Yun'er's death.

In the original novel, thanks to Tang San's meticulous arrangements, Huo Gua eventually ended up living in the God Realm with Dai Hao and Huo Yun'er, and didn't take any revenge on Dai Hao, which is truly outrageous.

When he first saw this part of the story, he felt uneasy. He felt that Douluo Continent II was less about Huo Yuhao's cultivation to godhood and more about Tang Buddha training dogs.

Chapter 586 Qiu'er, I knew you were a soul beast all along!

"Ju Zi, you don't need to try to persuade me anymore. If I can't kill Dai Hao with my own hands, I won't be able to give my mother an explanation. No matter what, I will take revenge on Dai Hao with you!" Huo Yuhao placed his hands on Ju Zi's shoulders and looked into her face as he spoke.

Normally, if Huo Yuhao had physical contact with her, Ju Zi would be very happy.

After all, the other person is the man she loves. As long as there is physical contact, it means that the relationship between the two people may take a step further and become more intimate.

However, looking into Huo Yuhao's eyes, Ju Zi felt a strange sense of guilt. Yuhao also hated Dai Hao and wanted revenge. How could she, under the guise of doing what was best for Yuhao, deprive him of his right to revenge?

Ever since her father died at the hands of Dai Hao, and her mother was so grief-stricken by his death that she eventually passed away suddenly, her heart has been filled with pain ever since.

Before meeting Yuhao and falling in love with him, I was a walking corpse with a bright and beautiful appearance on the outside but a heart filled with the fire of revenge. If it weren't for the desire to take revenge on Daihao, I probably wouldn't have been able to hold on for long.

Yuhao must have been in a lot of pain too; revenge was probably one of the reasons the other person was motivated to live.

After all, as a child raised by his mother, Yuhao naturally hated those who had harmed him and his mother after her death. Whether it was physical or emotional harm, it was undoubtedly deeply etched in Yuhao's heart.

"Yuhao, I'm sorry, it was my fault. I shouldn't have imposed my ideas on you." Orange said apologetically, "I will make a plan to ensure that we can successfully capture Dai Hao and give us both a chance for revenge."

However, Yuhao, I hope you can promise me that no matter what, you must not let anyone know that you killed Dai Hao. I don't want you to be branded as a patricide and subjected to moral condemnation because of this!

Huo Yuhao nodded, understanding the other party's concerns. After all, reputation is quite important in the Douluo Continent. Otherwise, why would Tang San directly alter history and make himself a symbol of purity and innocence in the Douluo Continent?

While Tang San's habit of pretending might be a factor, it also shows that a good reputation actually has many hidden benefits. Otherwise, given Tang San's self-serving nature, the other party wouldn't have bothered to do this if there were no hidden benefits to be gained.

Take faith for example. In most cases, having a good reputation makes it much easier to spread the faith and collect its power.

Huo Yuhao wanted to collect more faith power, so he naturally couldn't bear the stigma of patricide. Even if Dai Hao was indeed a scoundrel, he was still the biological father of this body. However, he wouldn't pin the blame on anyone. Anyway, once the war started, who would know how Dai Hao died?

Of course, before he kills Dai Hao, he also needs to make Huo Yun'er realize Dai Hao's true colors, and then confront Dai Hao, giving this self-righteous man who thinks he has Huo Yun'er under his thumb a heavy blow to his spirit!

In fact, Huo Yun'er's soul had already been retrieved from the underworld by Elder Yi.

In Huo Yuhao's mind, Huo Yun'er was indeed a gentle and respectable mother. Her only flaw was that she still couldn't forget Dai Hao.

Although Dai Hao's disguise was indeed quite good, Huo Yuhao was confident that as long as he used some special methods, Dai Hao would naturally reveal his ugly true colors.

........

As the sun set, the last rays disappeared below the horizon, and the sky grew dark.

Di Qiu'er, who was on the mountain peak, immediately stood up and said, "Senior Yuhao, my cultivation for today is temporarily over. If you want to continue cultivating, I will stay here with you."

At this moment, she was enveloped in the afterglow of the sun's radiance.

The reason is simple: Huo Yuhao was cultivating the Sun and Moon Profound Technique, drawing upon the brilliance of the sun, and as the owner of the Golden Dragon Martial Soul, she could naturally benefit from it as well.

Huo Yuhao looked at Di Qiu'er with a smile and said, "Qiu'er, I want to go to the Star Dou Great Forest. Can you come with me?"

Di Qiu'er was stunned for a moment, then remembered that Huo Yuhao had already reached the bottleneck of level 80 and needed a spirit ring to become a Soul Douluo.

The source of spirit rings is either from hunting spirit beasts or from signing a contract with a spirit beast to obtain its spirit. In any case, it is inseparable from going to the habitat of spirit beasts.

"Okay, Senior Yuhao, when do we set off?" Di Qiu'er asked.

"We can set off now. I want to go to Xingdou to meet Di Tian and talk to him about the matter of soul spirits. Qiu'er, you are very familiar with the Xingdou Great Forest and have a high status, so I would like to ask you to help me by acting as an intermediary and introducing me to Di Tian," Huo Yuhao continued.

Huo Yuhao had no choice but to take the initiative since Qiu'er wouldn't reveal her true intentions.

In the original novel, Qiu'er reveals her identity as a soul beast because she is going to sacrifice herself. Huo Yuhao would never do something so ridiculous as to make Qiu'er sacrifice herself.

Now that he has known Qiu'er for a long time, she has gradually let down her guard, and their feelings for each other have deepened.

Even if she takes the initiative, as long as she handles it well, Qiu'er will not choose to run away.

The discussion with Di Tian about the soul spirit must be implemented as soon as possible.

After all, this is related to the development of the Spirit Pagoda.

There are too many members in the Spirit Pagoda now, and all of them need soul spirits, which come from soul beasts. If Di Tian can help, many problems can be solved.

Upon hearing these words, Di Qiu'er tensed up, looking at Huo Yuhao in disbelief: "When did you find out?"

She believed her disguise was flawless and that the other party would never be able to see through her soul beast identity. However, what Huo Yuhao had just said almost explicitly indicated that he knew about her soul beast identity.

"Qiu'er, I knew you were a soul beast all along!"

Huo Yuhao said with a helpless expression, "Perhaps it is because of the affinity between our attributes that we have a connection of fate. When you took human form and met me, I recognized you immediately."

Di Qiu'er was silent for a while, her eyes revealing a complicated look. She slowly asked, "Senior Yuhao, why didn't you expose me back then? If you had chosen to expose me, even if I hadn't become a soul ring, I would have become a soul spirit and obtained a soul bone, wouldn't I?"

Huo Yuhao knew that Di Qiu'er was lying. In fact, even if Di Qiu'er's life was threatened, as long as she was willing to cooperate, Di Tian could quickly arrive to save her.

After all, in the original story, when Qiu'er offered her sacrifice, Di Tian said that the distance was too far to locate her, and that he could only use the method of descent with the help of auspicious beasts. In short, if Qiu'er had not offered her sacrifice and had been willing to cooperate, Di Tian could have been made to descend.

As a mythical beast of extremely high status, Qiu'er couldn't possibly be unaware of this.

Chapter 587 Qiu'er's Little Thoughts

Once the Beast God Di Tian descends, with his strength, it won't be Qiu'er and Huo Gua being besieged, but rather Di Tian, ​​a single soul beast, surrounding a group of soul masters.

However, Qiu'er ultimately did not cooperate with Di Tian's descent, but instead chose to sacrifice herself for Huo Gua.

In fact, based on the original plot, before the fusion of Wang Dong'er and Qiu'er is revealed, Dong'er's stock price will definitely skyrocket, making it a sure win with no possibility of losing.

As for Qiu'er, well... to be honest, she's definitely a loser, the kind of person who can only witness the love between Dong'er and Huo Gua.

Later on, even Qiu'er, the person directly involved, felt that she had lost completely and could not beat Dong'er. She could only return to the Star Dou Great Forest dejectedly, preparing never to see Huo Gua again in this life.

Qiu'er, who adores Huo Gua, softened when she sensed that Huo Gua was in danger. She ran over to save him and then sacrificed herself. After all, in Qiu'er's mind, as a soul beast, only by using such an extreme method as sacrifice could she never be separated from Huo Gua and thus defeat Dong'er once.

Qiu'er's love for Huo Gua is real. However, from the perspective of the soul beasts, Qiu'er, as an imperial auspicious beast, choosing to sacrifice herself was undoubtedly a wrong decision.

After all, this means that the destiny of the stars has been transferred to a human being, which will undoubtedly create an uncontrollable factor.

Huo Yuhao gazed at Di Qiu'er, a complex expression in his eyes: "Qiu'er, I could never do such a thing. In fact, humans and soul beasts are not inherently incompatible. I hope to minimize the killing between human soul masters and soul beasts as much as possible. After all, from a human perspective, if soul beasts disappear, soul masters will also cease to exist."

"The reason I didn't expose you immediately was that my initial goal was to use you as a starting point to contact Di Tian, ​​thereby promoting Soul Spirits as much as possible. This would give those Soul Beasts nearing their end a chance to retain their consciousness and exist in the world in another form, thus reducing bloodshed."

This was indeed his true feeling. For Huo Yuhao, he hoped to become a god shared by both soul beasts and humans, thereby absorbing as much faith power as possible. Naturally, he wanted to promote reconciliation between humans and soul beasts and reduce the killing between them.

Of course, spirits are only a temporary measure and cannot be considered a long-term solution. This thing certainly cannot completely promote reconciliation between humans and spirit beasts.

After all, according to the ending of the Legend of the Gods and the Legend of the Dragon King, with the development of technology, the promotion of soul spirits, and the emergence of artificial soul spirits, the number of soul beasts ten thousand years later will undoubtedly be greatly reduced compared to today, almost to the point of extinction. It even reached the point where Tang Wulin could only see virtual soul beasts in the Spirit Ascension Platform in the early stages.

"Senior Yuhao, I can feel the sincerity in your words. However, you didn't lay a hand on me. Besides that initial purpose, do you have any other motives?" Di Qiu'er didn't hear the answer she subconsciously wanted to hear, and looked at Huo Yuhao with some resentment.

As an imperial auspicious beast, many soul beasts are her subjects.

Although she had killed many soul beasts in order to fill her stomach.

However, the internal conflicts among soul beasts are far less acute than the conflicts between humans and soul beasts.

Huo Yuhao's words are beneficial to the development of the soul beast race. As an imperial auspicious beast, she will strongly support it. But she is not only an imperial auspicious beast, but also Di Qiu'er.

That was the answer the Emperor Beast wanted to hear, not the answer Di Qiu'er wanted to hear.

Huo Yuhao decided to tease Qiu'er: "Qiu'er, I do have other purposes. Why don't you guess what they are?"

He knew that although Di Qiu'er was a girl who dared to love and hate, she also had some stubbornness in her personality. There were some things that Qiu'er would keep to herself unless it was a critical moment.

For example, in the original novel, Qiu'er only revealed her love for Huo Gua in front of him when they arrived at Qiankun Wenqing Valley, which was Tang Buddha's favorite place, and during the sacrifice.

Of course, it's quite normal for Qiu'er to have this kind of personality.

The other party was, after all, someone who had been cared for by the Star Dou Beasts and the Silver Dragon King. From childhood to adulthood, apart from the fact that she had no parents, which Qiu'er, who was born and raised by fate, had never suffered any hardship. She was undoubtedly the little princess of Star Dou.

Upon hearing this, Di Qiu'er blushed slightly, knowing that Huo Yuhao was deliberately teasing her. She glared at Huo Yuhao fiercely and said, "I can't guess. I'm not a mind reader, how would I know what you're thinking!"

"Let me tell you, this time when we go to the Star Dou Great Forest, you must follow my instructions. Di Tian is an extremely ferocious soul beast towards humans. If you only offer a soul spirit plan, given Di Tian's personality, he might very well take some special measures against you. Of course, I have a way to prevent Di Tian from harming you."

"any solution?"

“For example, when you and I go to the Star Dou Great Forest, we can pretend to be lovers. That way, Di Tian will consider my feelings and be afraid that I will do something foolish like Xiao Wu, so he will give up on taking special measures against you.” Di Qiu’er’s expression turned serious, and she gritted her teeth as she proposed this somewhat naive plan.

As she spoke, her heart was pounding.

The reason is simple: this seemingly naive plan is indeed to protect Huo Yuhao's safety. If Di Tian really wants to harm Huo Yuhao, she will definitely threaten to kill herself.

However, she had another purpose.

She knew she loved Huo Yuhao, but she didn't know what Huo Yuhao was thinking. She could only resort to some special methods to enhance their relationship. After all, the competition was too fierce. She could see that there were several other girls who also liked Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao was somewhat surprised to hear this. The plan did sound a bit naive, but considering Qiu'er's naive nature, it was quite remarkable that she could come up with such a plan.

Huo Yuhao nodded with a smile in his eyes and agreed, "Okay."

He had no intention of taking Master Kong with him to the Starry Sky Forest, because Master Kong would become a huge third wheel at such a time.

As for his personal safety, to be honest, with his current resources, he doesn't need to worry about Di Tian's threat.

As for the Silver Dragon King in the Lake of Life, he is currently in seclusion recuperating from his injuries. Otherwise, with Tianmeng's strength, there would be no way for her to escape from under the Silver Dragon King's nose.

Even if the Silver Dragon King were to finish his seclusion and recuperate, he would not be afraid. After all, the Silver Dragon King was not like him, protected by the consciousness of the plane. If the opponent made a serious move and caused fluctuations in the lower realm, the five great god-kings would show the Silver Dragon King what cruelty was.

Therefore, even if the Silver Dragon King were to awaken, the probability of him making a move would be extremely low.

The filming of "Wandering Gods" hasn't even started yet, so how could the Silver Dragon King be so bold?
