Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect

"If it weren't for the fact that once the bloodline is revived, it's equivalent to its effects being activated—like raw meat turning cooked—making it unusable for repairing the Thunder God's position, then we would definitely need to cultivate some Thunder Hell Vines that are over 100,000 years old!"

The reason he was so concerned about the corpse of a first-level deity was simply because of the damaged divine position contained within the corpse.

Although that position of the Thunder God was nothing to him, the God-King.

However, what he left to his descendants was excellent. According to his plan, apart from the position of the Asura God who belonged to him, the positions of the other four God Kings should all belong to the Tang family.

As for how to transfer the divine positions of the other four great gods to the Tang family, that requires some far-reaching planning.

Although there aren't many members of the Tang family now, their numbers will inevitably increase over time, and there simply won't be enough spots for all four God Kings.

This means that the Tang family needs more divine positions.

When the time comes, the position of the Thunder God can naturally be passed down to one of his descendants, giving the Tang family another first-level deity, which is naturally a good thing.

"However, we still need to continue to repair our relationship with Xiao Wu and try to have more children. Otherwise, if the God Realm is filled with the Tang family's ideas, we will definitely not be able to achieve them."

He slowly rose, and his figure transformed into a streak of blue light and vanished.

..........

At the entrance of a magnificent, seven-story pavilion stood a group of solemn-faced guards, exuding a chilling aura.

Their eyes were like knives, scanning the pedestrians coming and going on the road.

Some richly dressed people, with smiles on their faces, entered the attic. Soon, beautiful maids came forward and led them to their pre-booked rooms.

Huo Yuhao and his entourage filed in, quickly attracting everyone's attention and causing a sensation. Even the rigorously trained guards couldn't help but show surprise.

After all, aside from Wu Feng and Ning Tian who intentionally concealed their faces, Meng Hongchen, as the granddaughter of the dean of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, was already extremely famous and attracted much attention.

As for Huo Yuhao, he was the greatest genius in the history of the Sun Moon Empire, and he also served as the high-ranking Prime Minister of the Sun Moon Empire. More importantly, he did a lot of things to promote the prestige of the Sun Moon Empire.

This makes every member of the Sun and Moon community feel honored and proud.

The murmurs came from all directions, surging like the tide.

"Prime Minister Huo is participating in this auction too? Oh no, I'm definitely not going to be able to snag any of the good stuff at today's auction!"

"Hehe, I never expected to have the honor of meeting Prime Minister Huo. My little sister greatly admires Prime Minister Huo. I'll have to find an opportunity later to see if I can ask for a piece of his calligraphy."

"Prime Minister Huo, we love you so much!"

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Huo Yuhao and his group entered the attic and went straight up to the No. 1 room on the seventh floor.

This room was booked in advance by Meng Hongchen, and now it has become the place where Huo Yuhao and his group stay.

........

"President, a distinguished guest has arrived in Room Number One of the Heavenly Rank. Would you like to go out and meet him?" The manager of Mingdu Auction House rushed into the secret room on the ground floor of the attic and looked at the aged-looking Unbreakable Douluo Zheng Zhan.

Today's Mingdu Auction is hosted by the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce within the Sun Moon Empire. The Tianyun Chamber of Commerce is a well-known chamber of commerce with a huge business. As for its backer, it is naturally the Invincible Douluo Zheng Zhan, who is famous throughout the Sun Moon Empire.

Zheng Zhan raised his eyelids slightly, somewhat casually: "Wasn't the number one room in the VIP section booked by Meng Hongchen? I've never gotten along with her grandfather, Jing Hongchen. Even though Jing Hongchen is now very powerful, do you expect me to lower myself to fawn over his granddaughter?"

"I am, after all, a worshipper of the Sun and Moon Hall and a ninth-level Soul Master. Meng Hongchen is not worth me going out to meet."

As he spoke, he scolded, "You are too impulsive. You panicked as soon as Meng Hongchen arrived. You should learn from me how to remain calm even when mountains collapse in front of you."

"President!" The manager's face grew increasingly anxious. "But Meng Hongchen has taken Prime Minister Huo into Room Number One!"

"What!" Zheng Zhan, the Unbreakable Douluo, looked astonished and immediately stood up from the futon. "Prime Minister Huo actually came? Why didn't you say so sooner?"

Seeing the president's rapid change of expression, the manager was somewhat embarrassed: "This... I got too excited for a moment and lost my composure."

Chapter 783 The waters here are too deep; I'm afraid he won't be able to handle it.

Zheng Zhan straightened his clothes while sighing helplessly:

"Alright, I don't blame you. After all, Prime Minister Huo is a big figure in the empire. Given your status, it's only natural that you would be excited about his arrival."

"You go do other things now. I'll handle the reception of Prime Minister Huo!"

"Yes, Chairman!"

The steward said respectfully.

.......

The attic has seven floors.

Inside Room No. 1 (Top Class).

Huo Yuhao was staring intently at the soul-guiding light screen in front of him.

With the development of soul guidance technology, today's soul guidance light screens are much better in terms of visual experience than before.

"Well, when I have some free time, I could bring over the remote video calling technology from the future and communicate with the researchers to see if we can make this thing."

Although soul-guided communication only existed during the Dragon King Legend era, even if it's difficult, it shouldn't be more challenging than a level 12 fixed-position soul-guided cannon. Success is still possible. If successful, it would greatly increase the efficiency of message transmission, dramatically boosting the speed of reputation building and accelerating the collection of faith power.

His mind was churning with thoughts like waves.

Ning Tian and Meng Hongchen sat down beside him.

Although the two are not arguing in the room, the atmosphere of subtle confrontation hangs over Wu Feng's mind like a dark cloud, lingering and impossible to shake off.

Wu Feng felt a little envious, thinking to himself, "Ning Tian and Meng Hongchen are probably going to start arguing again later. As for the reason for the argument, it will probably be related to Huo Yuhao."

After all, rivals in love are bound to be extremely hostile when they meet.

I wish I were Huo Yuhao.

That way, Ning Tian would argue with his so-called 'love rival' for my sake, but unfortunately... I'm not Huo Yuhao!

Just then, a series of pattering footsteps sounded from outside the room.

The eyes of everyone in the room shifted to the door.

Soon, everyone saw the door being pushed open by a pair of wrinkled hands, and an old face with a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum came into view.

"Prime Minister Huo!" Zheng Zhan walked in and praised, "I never expected you to grace us with your presence. I feel that today's Mingdu Auction is greatly enhanced by your arrival!"

Huo Yuhao shifted his gaze slightly and smiled, "Elder Zheng, you're being too kind."

Even though the other party was a worshipper of the Sun and Moon Offering Hall and of the same generation as Jing Hongchen, he still added the word "old" after the other party's surname to show respect.

Hearing "Old Zheng" from that address, Zheng Zhan felt extremely comfortable, as if he had drunk a sip of ice water on a hot summer day, and his smile grew even wider.

He thought to himself, "Huo Yuhao is indeed a very good person. Back when he participated in the Soul Master Competition in Mingdu, I was the chief referee of the competition. At that time, although he was a peerless genius who invented the Soul Spirit, his strength was insufficient, so he respected me."

He is now the powerful Prime Minister of the Sun and Moon, deeply favored by His Majesty, and has grown into one of the strongest figures on the Douluo Continent, achieving great military exploits.

Given his current status and power, even if he didn't call me "Old Zheng," no one would make a fuss about it. Yet he still calls me "Old Zheng," which is truly a great honor.

Unlike some Soul Masters who are humble when you're weak, but become arrogant and disrespectful once they become powerful...

Thinking of this, Zheng Zhan smiled broadly and took out a list from his storage ring, handed it to Huo Yuhao, and said with great pride:

"Prime Minister Huo, the items to be auctioned today are all on this list. Please take a look beforehand, and let me know in advance if you see anything you like."

"I will go through the internal purchasing process and buy the items you want directly, so they won't be auctioned off. They will be delivered to you shortly. As for the expenses incurred, I will cover them!"

Logically speaking, this is actually against the rules of the auction.

However, this Mingdu Auction was hosted by the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce.

As the president, his power within the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce is virtually unlimited.

Moreover, maintaining a good relationship with Huo Yuhao would greatly benefit his descendants. As a rather senior level nine soul master who has lived for so many years, he naturally wouldn't be unable to understand this principle.

Upon hearing Zheng Zhan's words, Huo Yuhao immediately understood what he meant—he desperately wanted to improve!

So, Huo Yuhao took the list, glanced at it for a while, and the only thing that interested him was the news about the so-called "Thunderous Yama Vine".

“I’m more interested in the news about the Thunderous Yama Vine.” Huo Yuhao looked up at Zheng Zhan.

Admittedly, since he could communicate with the consciousness of another plane, he could directly know the location of the Thunderous Hell Vine. There was no need for him to auction off the so-called "Thunderous Hell Vine" information, and he could have simply rejected Zheng Zhan outright.

However, doing so would not be conducive to building a good relationship with Zheng Zhan and getting him to do things wholeheartedly for you. After all, friendship requires give and take.

The other party was a rather senior level nine soul master who had also written many books about soul tools and had a certain influence in the soul master world. He could definitely help me further expand my influence and increase the faith power I gained.

If everything is handled by the consciousness of the other dimension, then what is Zheng Zhan doing?

You should always give the other party some opportunities to do things, and then give them some benefits in return. This way, you can build friendships through give and take, and make the other party more willing to serve you in the future.

"News about Lei Ming and Yan Yuteng? Prime Minister Huo, please wait a moment, I'll be back shortly."

After saying that, he left the room and returned some time later. He then took out a map from his storage ring and handed it to Huo Yuhao.

He explained, "This map shows the locations of several Thunderous Hell Vine locations. I have already sent people to verify that Thunderous Hell Vine does indeed grow in those places."

During his time away, he found the seller, negotiated with them for a while, offered a satisfactory price, and thus obtained the map.

As for the lack of a grand finale item at the auction, that can also be resolved. Since very few people know the specifics of the grand finale item, we can simply use some special, high-value rare metals as a substitute.

Huo Yuhao took the map but didn't open it. He scanned it briefly with his mental energy and quickly learned about the several locations recorded on the map, a look of satisfaction on his face.

"Yuhao, are you going to kill Leiming Yanyuteng? I can ask my father to come and help you," Ning Tian said.

The so-called help was simply to let Huo Yuhao experience the auxiliary effects of the level 79 Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul.

"No need," Huo Yuhao politely declined. "The situation here is too complicated, and I'm afraid he won't be able to handle it."

This is indeed a complex matter, as it involves the schemes of the pure and virtuous Tang God King.

........

On the other side, Huo Yuhao's separated spiritual body had already completed a brief exchange with the consciousness of the plane and learned a lot of secrets.

He sighed, "The so-called corpse of Thor is also hidden in a demiplane. The seal outside the demiplane requires the blood essence of the Tang family to be broken. Hmm, I should try to find Wang Dong to get some blood essence."

Chapter 784 Tang Ya, you don't want Bei Bei to be sad either, do you?

"If I want to obtain Wang Dong's essence blood without alerting Tang San, then I definitely can't personally get involved."

However, essence blood is different from ordinary blood... You really can't obtain essence blood by ordinary means...

Huo Yuhao's eyes showed a thoughtful expression, then a flash of inspiration struck him.

"By the way, I remember Tang Ya has already been rescued, but her martial soul is still Dark Blue Silver Grass. We can let Tang Ya fight Wang Dong and take some of his essence blood back in the battle. Anyway, Dark Blue Silver Grass has the characteristic of devouring life force, so it is normal for her to take some of Wang Dong's essence blood in the battle."

"With Wang Dong's Sea God bloodline, losing a little essence blood would only weaken him for a while, not cause any serious harm. Furthermore, the one who attacked was Tang Ya, the sect leader of the Tang Clan, who had no intention of killing him. Could it be that Tang San would actually attack Tang Ya, the sect leader of the Tang Clan, under such circumstances?"
