Chapter 543 What is the True Self
"What are you thinking about?"

Wang Dong's gentle voice sounded in his ears. She sat beside Huo Yuhao with her legs bent. Her pink-blue eyes under her long eyelashes were filled with a hint of curiosity.

She understood Huo Yuhao and saw that Huo Yuhao might be worried about something.

“I wonder what kind of person I was before.”

A smile appeared in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and he gently took the girl into his arms.

Wang Dong blinked, then snorted coldly, and said, "Is there any need to think about this? Of course he is a pervert, a bastard, and a pervert. Did you see so many girls in the field? These are all evidence of your crimes."

“You’re right.” Huo Yuhao chuckled.

Wang Dong was stunned. He didn’t expect Huo Yuhao to admit it just like that and even laugh?
She puffed her cheeks, widened her beautiful eyes and glared at Huo Yuhao, muttering, "Pervert, bastard."

Huo Yuhao ruffled the girl’s soft hair and whispered, “Then Dong’er, are you willing to become evidence of the crime committed by a perverted bastard like me?”

Wang Dong turned his face away, and his calm voice was tinged with a hint of shyness.

"Evidence of guilt is evidence of guilt. It cannot be erased. Don't even think about escaping. This will be a mark on you for the rest of your life."

“Yeah.” Huo Yuhao nodded lovingly, took the freshly grilled fish, blew on it carefully to cool it down a little, and then brought it to the girl’s mouth.

Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao steadily, his eyes sparkling. He gently opened his mouth, took a bite of the grilled fish, and narrowed his eyes slightly, just like a cat that had eaten dried fish.

Huo Yuhao took a bite and said softly with a sigh, "Dong'er, it's a pity that I didn't spend more time with you before."

Wang Dong pursed his lips, then gently held Huo Yuhao’s arm, resting his head on Huo Yuhao’s shoulder, and said sullenly, “That’s good, Yuhao. I’m glad to have met you. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know what would happen to me in the future. I’d probably be wiped out of consciousness by Tang San someday, and my cherished memories would be used as tools to merge into a new person, right?”

"Everyone is like me. They don't regret meeting you. Just spend more time with us in the future."

Huo Yuhao sniffed the fragrance coming from the girl's hair and gently wrapped his arms around her soft waist.

Wang Dong snorted as he spoke, and continued:
"Besides, you have good taste. They are all very nice and I get along well with them. We were very weak at the time and didn't have much time. If you had spent more time with me, you would have missed a lot of people, right? I don't want you to miss them either."

Huo Yuhao felt warm in his heart. He could tell that the girl’s last words were somewhat against her will.

Wang Dong does get along well with others, but she would probably be happier if they were just good friends, not good sisters.

She said this only to appease him.

In a blink of an eye, a night passed. Because of the addition of some unfamiliar people, Huo Yuhao's night was not that absurd.

Then, he stayed at the Spiritual Academy for a while. His daily routine was to accompany these confidantes and teach students in the academy. In addition, he also took time to make some sculptures similar to those standing in Shrek City, turning them into the new "network open points" of the Dream God Realm.

With her current mental and soul power, at close range, she is able to pull more than 100,000 creatures into the Dream God Realm in a day. Therefore, the Dream God Realm can also expand, and this statue is the entry point.

By the way, this statue can also collect faith.

Faith is also a good thing. In addition to protecting the people in that city, it can also be used as energy to increase the lifespan of spirit rings and spirit bones. Some practices that rely on faith in gods cannot do without it.

While accompanying those girls, Huo Yuhao also considered the task of solidifying his golden ability [Reincarnation] and realizing his true self.

This mission is as mysterious as the Dream God Realm mission. What exactly is the “true self”?

In the past life, Buddhism had the concept of true self. True self is one of the four virtues of Nirvana, representing self and autonomy. It refers to transcending the false self and reaching the true self.

The "I" in "Suddenly I realized the cause and effect, and today I know that I am me" refers to this.

There are other different explanations, for example, some people say that the true self refers to the unity of man and nature, and the greater self of all things. But in Douluo Continent, the unity of man and nature refers to a spiritual realm, and he has indeed achieved it.

The true self refers to the truest essence within each person, which is a pure, unconditional existence that transcends individual identity and role. It represents human nature and wisdom.

This true self is similar to the explanation of the inscription of "true self" represented by Alicia in a game in his previous life.

Huo Yuhao felt that this golden finger would not allow him to become a saint.

He really can't do it.

Therefore, he could only think that the realization of the true self referred to by the golden finger should be the realization of the original self, and not forgetting one's original intention.

If it really doesn't work, I can only gather up my willpower to downgrade this fixed task.

He now has two points of black-level willpower and two points of purple-level willpower.

Two of the black-level wishes were obtained through the reconciliation between Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong. Yes, they reconciled after all, but for some reason, they were still cold to each other after meeting, and there was no mother-daughter feeling at all. Qian Renxue also always called Bibi Dong "sister" instead of "mom".

The two points of purple-level willpower were obtained from Bibi Dong, thanks to his cheap father-in-law Qian Xunji. In order to resolve the hatred in Bibi Dong's heart, Huo Yuhao had to reluctantly summon Qian Xunji to suffer this pain.

However, Huo Yuhao felt that if Qian Xunji knew that if he was tortured by Bibi Dong from time to time and would not be let off even after his death, the destruction of the Spirit Hall and the Angel Clan could be avoided, he would surely be very happy and willing to be tortured.

After all, in the original novel, he was willing to sacrifice himself for the angel clan and the Spirit Hall, and used his amazing wisdom to create two gods for the Spirit Hall.

Bibi Dong agreed to serve him again together with Qian Renxue, partly out of revenge on Qian Xunji, otherwise, she would have to wait until he reincarnated Bibi Dong in the future.

All I can say is that Qianxunji died a great death.

He is much more useful dead than alive.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another two months had passed, and the Tiandou Empire finally ushered in a coup d'état.

Xue Beng Xue Xing, Imperial Marshal Goron and a group of nobles, fully armed, led their troops into the palace and beheaded Emperor Xue Ye on the dragon throne.

Sons killed their fathers, brothers killed their brothers, and ministers killed their masters. They did not shy away from doing this in front of all the ministers of the Tiandou Empire and the nearly 10,000 soldiers they brought with them, and they lost the support of the people.

Only the Crown Prince disguised as Qian Renxue managed to escape the disaster.

After the news spread, Qian Renxue made a loud call, rallied the army and the hearts of the subjects, led the army and the Titled Douluo supported by the Spiritual Academy into the palace, beheaded Xue Beng, Xue Xing and those nobles as a public display, and then began a purge.

The first to be purged was naturally the army. As Ge Long was the marshal, it was inevitable that the army would be purged. Qian Renxue took this opportunity to replace most of the generals in the army with people from the Spirit Hall. The next to suffer were the nobles who participated. Some of them were ministers, and some were city lords. After the purge, they were still replaced by people from the Spirit Hall.

Qian Renxue began to purge those who had previously supported Avalanche.

At this point, the nobles of the Tiandou Empire did not think there was anything wrong. After all, Xue Beng and his men had done such a big thing, it was normal to be purged. Moreover, after the purge, they could stand up and take over the vacant cake.

After this purge, nearly half of the power and interests of the Tiandou Empire were completely controlled by Qian Renxue.

Afterwards, Qian Renxue began to purge those who had close interests with the nobles. Because of the complex interests of the nobles, big and small, those implicated almost included all the nobles of the entire Tiandou Empire.

At first, they didn't take it seriously, thinking that only those people were involved in the murder of Xue Ye. As the situation escalated, they began to compromise. Qian Renxue pretended to be submissive while continuing to wield the butcher knife.

In the end, when the nobles finally realized that something was wrong, it was already too late to change the situation.

On the contrary, the Xingluo Empire reacted earlier than them. When the Tiandou Empire was in turmoil due to the purge, the Xingluo Empire brazenly launched a war and raided the border of the Tiandou Empire.
