Douluo: Rebirth Yuhao, they all have evil intentions

Chapter 178 Encounter with the Duchess (Two in One)

"What do you mean, Senior Xuanji?"

"I, Dai Hao, have been in the army for half my life. I am not afraid of hardships or power. Although I have not made any great achievements, I have also achieved extraordinary things, which is far beyond the reach of ordinary people."

In the conference room, Dai Hao frowned and looked at the old man in front of him, and a cold voice sounded from the silent conference room.

"Now Senior actually asked me to give up my dignity and backbone and compromise and apologize to the murderer who killed my son? Then how can I gain a foothold in the army in the future and how can I establish my prestige?"

Looking at Dai Hao's neither humble nor arrogant appearance, Xuanji Douluo's old face looked a little ugly, and his voice was also mixed with a bit of anger.

"Dai Hao, your father asked me to take good care of your White Tiger lineage before he died, and I have watched you grow up since you were a child. Have I ever harmed you in all these years?"

As soon as these words came out, Dai Hao's face suddenly eased, and Xuanji Douluo also struck while the iron was hot and continued to speak.

"I just can't bear to see your White Tiger lineage cut off, so I resorted to this desperate measure. You know, the situation has now reached a critical moment of life and death. If you don't compromise, the Duke's Mansion will only face destruction!"

"How is it possible?"

This time, before Dai Hao could speak, the Duchess on the side subconsciously refuted.

"It has been more than a month since the original interception incident. Shrek has only put pressure on our Duke's Mansion from all sides. If they wanted to take action, they would have taken action a month ago. Why do they have to wait until now?"

Xuanji Douluo frowned and subconsciously looked at Dai Hao. Seeing that the other party also acquiesced to the words of the Duchess, he couldn't help but shook his head.

"Shrek may not take action, but that Huo Yuhao may not."

"I hope Senior Xuanji will not joke. As a Soul Douluo, should I be afraid of a teenager?"

As if stimulated by Xuanji Douluo's words, Dai Hao's face, which was originally intimidating without anger, suddenly sank, and the murderous aura cultivated by years of fighting on the battlefield instantly filled the entire conference room.

"I admit that Huo Yuhao is a genius, but if there is not enough time to convert this talent into strength, then a genius can only be a genius. When he reaches the level of Soul Douluo, I am confident that he can become a Titled Douluo. Why should I be afraid of him?"

"If that is the case, I won't say much, but Huo Yuhao is different from the so-called Shrek geniuses before. He played in today's game. Although I didn't see what his martial soul was, it was definitely the Ultimate Ice. As soon as he appeared on the stage, he showed the combat power of the Soul Emperor level, crushing a combination of a Soul King and a Soul Sect."

Looking at Dai Hao's gradually dull face, Xuanji Douluo sighed lightly and continued to add.

"And judging from the fact that his first soul ring is ten thousand years old, it is very likely that he has twin martial souls, and even his cultivation has reached the level of Soul King. Perhaps you will feel that the gap between Soul King and Soul Douluo is still huge, but Dai Hao, don't forget that he is about the same age as Dai Huabin."

Dai Hao trembled all over, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. After listening to Xuanji Douluo's explanation, he finally had an intuitive understanding of Huo Yuhao's talent.

You know, even if he was very dissatisfied with Dai Huabin's character, he had to admit that his youngest son's talent was very outstanding. After all, even Dai Mubai, the ancestor who became a god ten thousand years ago, had never reached the thirty-seventh level of soul power at this age. It is not an exaggeration to say that his son is the most talented person in the White Tiger lineage for thousands of years.

But this Huo Yuhao's talent is more terrifying than Dai Huabin. At the same age, he already has a fighting power comparable to that of a Soul Emperor. Even though he has the cultivation of a Soul Douluo, he can't help but feel an inexplicable sense of fear in his heart.

After all, compared to Dai Huabin, his talent as a father is not that good. If he does not find another way to squeeze his potential through life-and-death battles on the battlefield, it is a question whether he can reach Soul Douluo at the age of 40.

Now there is a genius with such a terrifying talent as an enemy. It is absolutely a lie to say that he is not worried. If he does not strangle the opponent in the cradle in advance, he will only suffer.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at Xuanji Douluo, and his tone seemed a little anxious.

"Uncle Xuanji, Huo Yuhao is now in Xingluo City, why don't we try again."

"?"

Xuanji Douluo was dumbfounded.

No, I said these to ask you to apologize to others, not to ask you to shout that this child must not be left, and then go and kill the opponent again!

It's only been a month, have you forgotten how Juli Douluo died?

Or do you think that one Juli Douluo is not enough, and you are going to let me send one too?

When Dai Hao approached him, he actually didn't think much of this matter, but because the other party's two sons were dead and one was injured, and the injured one was about to die, he had to give it a try, and he finally agreed.

Originally, he thought that even if the mission failed, it would not be a problem for the two Title Douluo to escape, as long as their identities were not exposed, everything would be fine.

But things did not go as he wished, and Juli Douluo died in Shrek. Although he successfully escaped, he was also hated by Xu Jiawei and Shrek Academy.

He knew very well how decisive this seemingly friendly Emperor Xingluo was in doing things.

It can be said that if it were not for his high status in the Xingluo Worship Hall, killing him would cause dissatisfaction among other worshippers, and Xu Jiawei would have taken action long ago.

But compared with the hidden power around Huo Yuhao, Xu Jiawei was not the one that worried him the most.

You should know that Cheng Gang's spirit, the Ant King, not only improves his strength, but also greatly improves his perception, which is also an important reason why Cheng Gang was arranged to ambush Huo Yuhao when carrying out the mission.

This extraordinary perception not only makes it easier for him to find the hidden masters around Huo Yuhao, but also warns of danger in the first time, helping him to escape in time.

But it was such a sensitive Titled Douluo who died in Shrek without making any noise that night. It is conceivable what kind of terrifying existence is around Huo Yuhao.

Although from the aura, the middle-aged woman who led the team to participate in the competition has reached the level of Super Douluo, but it doesn't seem like she can quietly wipe out the existence of Giant Douluo.

And the level of ninety-five is really a bit too coincidental. It is neither so strong that people dare not take action again, nor so weak that people can tell at a glance that this is a trap.

It was like it was carefully prepared to lure them into action...

"Dai Hao, last time you were eager to save your son, and the plan was indeed feasible, so I didn't say much. But this time if you really insist on doing it and continue to do stupid things like this, even I may not be able to protect your Duke's Mansion."

No longer choosing to indulge Dai Hao, Xuanji Douluo questioned angrily.

"Knowing that Xingluo City is the territory of our Duke's Mansion and the royal family, Shrek still dares to let Huo Yuhao participate in the competition. Have you ever thought about how much power is hidden around him this time?"

"Not only that, I can also tell you that the contestants of this Shrek session, including the team leader who is only in his twenties and has the cultivation of Soul Douluo, have a close relationship with Huo Yuhao. Do you know what this means?"

"It means that even if you can kill Huo Yuhao, the crisis of the Duke's Mansion will not be resolved, and you will even face a crazy Shrek who is desperate and will not stop until death."

"I..."

As if he realized that Xuanji Douluo was really angry, Dai Hao's face was a little ferocious, and he roared in a low voice.

"But as a father, do I have to watch my son die and do nothing?"

Seeing that Dai Hao was still insisting, the Duchess' eyes lit up slightly, but before she could speak, Xuanji Douluo interrupted her coldly.

"Who said that reconciliation means giving up your son? If your son's incident was really caused by the other party, reconciliation will have a better chance of saving your son's life."

As he spoke, Xuanji Douluo looked Dai Hao up and down, and his voice was also a little strange.

"And for a Soul Douluo, you are not old at all, and you are fully capable of training another one..."

"Senior!"

The Duchess's eyes flashed with resentment, and her eyes stared at the Xuanji Douluo in front of her, and she retorted sharply.

"Hua Bin's talent is unparalleled in the world. Even Dai Mubai, the ancestor who became a god ten thousand years ago, cannot compare with him. Once this opportunity is given up, even if you train another one in the future, it may not have the talent of Dai Hua Bin."

If she couldn't beat him, she would have wanted to tear the mouth of this old man who always gave bad ideas.

Encourage Dai Hao to give up Dai Hua Bin?

Dream on!

Let's not talk about whether Huo Yuhao would agree or not. Even if they reconciled, with that kid's personality, he would never save Dai Hua Bin.

Indeed, with the power of her family, she did have a chance to kill Huo Yuhao, but before that she had to save her son's life.

"Humph, it's not your turn to interrupt me!"

"To put it bluntly, the spiritual sea has been severely injured, you should know how slim the chance of recovery is. Even if Dai Huabin is saved, he will definitely be left with extremely serious sequelae, resulting in his talent being much worse than before. It is still unclear whether he can compare with the retrained one."

Xuanji Douluo was almost laughing with anger. He had given earnest advice and helped the Duke's Mansion think of a solution, but Dai Hao just wanted to save that useless face and refuted her again and again. Even the Duchess dared to refute him, a Titled Douluo!

"Dai Hao, I won't say much. The only chance for the Duke's Mansion to survive is to take the initiative to compensate and reconcile while Huo Yuhao has not fully grown up and there is still room for reversal with Shrek. Consider it carefully."

Frightened by the pressure from the Titled Douluo, the Duchess who had calmed down couldn't help but flash a trace of fear in her eyes. She stammered and dared not say anything more. She could only look at Dai Hao subconsciously.

However, after seeing the undisguised hesitation on Dai Hao's face, the Duchess suddenly stood there, two lines of tears rolled down her face, and asked in disbelief.

"Dai Hao! Are you really going to give up Hua Bin and your son? Are you still a human being!?"

"Shut up!!!"

As if stimulated by this sentence, Dai Hao showed a violent look on his face, and his aura burst out instantly, which really scared the Duchess and she dared not say anything more.

Without looking at his wife's expression at the moment, Dai Hao took a deep breath, looked up at Xuanji Douluo, and apologized solemnly.

"Uncle Xuanji, the matter involves my son's life. As a father, I am a little impulsive. I hope you can understand. Now I have thought it through. A real man can bend and stretch. For the continuation of my White Tiger lineage and for my son to have a chance to be saved, what does my dignity mean to me?"

When Xuanji Douluo showed a look of relief on his face, Dai Hao changed the subject and said hesitantly.

"But Uncle Xuanji, you also understand that this incident is likely to have a negative impact on my status in the hearts of the soldiers and the people of the empire. I am worried that the royal family will take this opportunity to make some fuss..."

Xuanji Douluo naturally understood what Dai Hao meant. The reason why Xu Jiawei had not dared to touch him was that, apart from having a ninety-fourth-level titled Douluo as his life insurance, the most important reason was that their White Tiger lineage was so important in the empire. established prestige.

Prestige is useless to people like Xu Jiawei, but it is useful to people below! In addition, the Sun and Moon Empire is getting stronger and a war is imminent. Even if Xu Jiawei wants to take action, he has to think carefully.

This happened at such a critical juncture. Dai Hao knew without even thinking that Xu Jiawei would never let go of this opportunity.

"Of course I understand this, but it's definitely not as serious as you think, so don't worry."

I saw Xuanji Douluo waving his hand: "As you said, a man can bend and stretch. This matter will not affect anything at all. And if you insist on saying it, this matter is the fault of Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin."

"What they like to see most is that the emperor breaks the law and the common people are equally guilty. As the marshal of the empire, if you take the initiative to apologize and reconcile, everyone will think that you are righteous in killing relatives, do not protect your children, and do not bully others. If you provide a little guidance afterwards, you can completely rule the empire. Establish an upright and upright image in the hearts of the people.”

"I see!"

Dai Hao's eyes lit up slightly, and he felt as if he had been enlightened. He also called Xuanji Douluo more and more affectionately.

"Uncle Xuanji, when do you think it's best for me to take the initiative to reconcile?"

"It seems that you have made a decision in your heart. In that case, don't be afraid of losing face for a while. You can apologize at the end of the Soul Master Competition finals. The more people who can see it, the better."

"The dignified Duke of White Tiger, apologize in person and ask for reconciliation under the spotlight. Shrek Academy and that Huo Yuhao will feel your sincerity, and the probability of rejecting reconciliation will be greatly reduced."

Speaking of this, Xuanji Douluo seemed to have thought of something and suggested again.

"Dai Hao, my next words may be a bit heartless, but they are also for the good of your Duke's Palace..."

"Uncle Xuanji, what are you talking about!"

Dai Hao's eyes widened and his voice couldn't help but rise a few degrees.

"Since the death of his father, Dai Hao has always regarded you as the most respected elder. If you are willing to make valuable suggestions, I will listen attentively. I also ask my uncle to speak frankly."

Hearing Dai Hao's heartfelt words, Xuanji Douluo felt his nose sore for a moment.

He also had a son, but he died young on the battlefield due to one of his mistakes. He was so heartbroken that he had no plans to have another son.

It happened that the last White Tiger Duke was his close friend in life and death. After entrusting Dai Hao to him before his death, he had always treated Dai Hao as his own son.

How could he not be excited now that he knew that Dai Hao kept all his efforts for so many years in mind?

Raising his hand to rub his red eyes, Xuanji Douluo spoke warmly.

"Okay, okay, since you said so, Dai Hao, then I won't worry about anything."

"I heard that Dai Huabin had some grievances with Huo Yuhao before, so I thought that since the child was saved, he would probably have serious sequelae. It would be better to hand him over to Huo Yuhao as part of the apology. In this way, Coupled with his previous public apology, Huo Yuhao should not refuse to reconcile with the Duke's Palace... What do you think?"

"this"

Xuanji Douluo also tried to make this proposal, but to his surprise, Dai Hao not only did not reject it outright, but showed hesitation after hearing about it.

Their concentration was such that neither of them noticed the unconcealable ferocity on the face of the Duchess who had not spoken any more. It took a long time before Dai Hao spoke hesitantly.

"I need to think about this"

"Well, it's still some time before the finals anyway, so there's no need to rush this matter."

Knowing this, Dai Hao found it difficult to make a decision, and Xuanji Douluo did not urge him.

"In that case, I'll take my leave first."

Watching Xuanji Douluo leave, the Duchess subconsciously looked at Dai Hao, as if she wanted to say something else, but when she thought that Dai Hao was actually considering whether to hand over Dai Huabin to Huo Yuhao, those words seemed to be stuck in her throat. The same thing, I can't say it out loud.

In the long silence, the Duchess's palms gradually clenched into fists, her eyes vicious and cold.

Night falls.

As a crisp knock on the door rang, Dai Huabin, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes in a daze. After seeing the person, he couldn't help but froze for a moment and asked weakly.

"Mother, why are you here?"

It has been a month since the spiritual sea was damaged, and his condition is getting worse and worse. He has been in this half-dream and half-awake state of drowsiness all day long. Even if he wants to concentrate, he can only maintain it for a few minutes.

But compared to his physical weakness, the fear in his heart was the most unbearable for Dai Huabin.

Different from dying directly, this kind of feeling that one's own life is passing away little by little, but there is no way to die can be imagined how much psychological pressure people will bear.

If he hadn't still firmly believed that his father would save him, he would have been tortured to the point of going crazy by that fear.

Listening to Dai Huabin's weak voice, the Duchess swayed slightly, holding back the tears in her eyes, and spoke in a solemn voice.

"Hua Bin, this is what happened. Your father accidentally provoked Shrek when he was helping you find a cure. Now it's the Soul Master Competition, and Shrek has also come to Xingluo City. Your father is worried that they might secretly retaliate against you, so he asked me to take you away from the Duke's Mansion and stay somewhere else for a while."

In the past few hours, she had taken all the property that could be taken away from the Duke's Mansion. This time, she came with Dai Huabin.

Although Dai Hao might not hand over Dai Huabin, she didn't dare to gamble, and even if he didn't hand him over, Huo Yuhao would definitely not tell the treatment method, and Dai Huabin would still die.

In this case, it would be better for her to take Dai Huabin away directly. The continent is so big, there might be somewhere that can treat her son's symptoms.

"Provoked Shrek? Is your father okay?"

Dai Huabin did not doubt his mother's words, but just looked at the door, with a hint of expectation in his weak tone.

"Why didn't he come?"

"He, he is discussing with Xuanji Douluo how to help you get revenge. He will come to see you when he is free later."

As if she didn't want to dwell on this topic any more, the Duchess looked at the two guards behind her and said coldly.

"Take Huabin with you. Don't let him get hurt. Let's go now."

"Yes."

The two guards responded and immediately divided the work. One of them took out an empty storage ring and put all of Dai Huabin's items in it, while the other carried Dai Huabin on his back.

Relying on the identity of the Duchess, several people walked out of the Duke's Mansion in a swagger under the respectful gaze of the guards at the door.

In order to prevent Dai Hao from being caught up after being discovered, the Duchess did not choose to take a slow carriage as soon as she went out, but walked quickly along the official road.

Except for Dai Huabin, the cultivation of everyone present was not weak. Even walking was not comparable to the carriage. If Dai Huabin was not too weak, their speed would be even faster.

After about ten minutes, the Duchess subconsciously glanced at the brightly lit Duke's Mansion behind her, and then looked at Xingluo City, where the outline of the city wall could be vaguely seen not far away, with resentment in her eyes.

"Wait, this account will not be settled just like that."

However, just as she turned around and prepared to continue on her way, the scene in front of her made her body suddenly stiffen.

Not far in front of them, two figures were standing quietly on the street.

The bright moonlight fell obliquely from behind the two people. Although the front was hidden in the shadow due to the backlight, the night vision effect brought by the Nether Spirit Cat Martial Spirit still allowed the Duchess to see their faces clearly.

Standing on the right was a girl with skin as white as snow and a delicate face. Even though she was wearing black clothes at this moment, it was still difficult to hide the nobleness emanating from the inside out. As the hostess of the Duke's Mansion, the Duchess naturally recognized her identity at a glance.

The sister of Xingluo Emperor Xu Jiawei, Xu Jiujiu.

But what the Duchess was most concerned about at the moment was the black-haired boy next to Xu Jiujiu.

"Huo Yuhao!!!"

Looking at the boy in front of her, who she had never met but had seen countless times in the information, the Duchess's face instantly became extremely ferocious.

Hearing the Duchess's roar, Huo Yuhao raised his eyes slightly, his azure eyes did not fluctuate at all, and against the backdrop of the dim environment, they seemed to be filled with a faint glow, and his almost indifferent eyes made people feel a chill just by looking at them.

"This is really a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance while walking outside the city."
