Chapter 233: “the Kindhearted Huo Family Kid By Nature”
Dai Ying watched as Huo Yuhao approached step by step, the brilliant Sun Wheel Spear igniting the surrounding elements, its aura growing increasingly violent, the spear tip drawing a golden arc in the air, directly aimed at her.
Her entire spiritual power was emitting sharp explosive sounds, the dazzling light now representing not warmth but the shadow of death spreading.
“I’ll die!”
“I will definitely die!”
This thought was etched into her Sea of Consciousness like a brand, her body instinctively beginning to use the later techniques of the Nine Netherworld Absolute Techniques.
“Nine Netherworld Absolute Techniques, Fifth Form, Preliminary Manifestation of the Hades Return Homeland Domain!”
This was the starting move of the last four techniques of the Nine Netherworld Absolute Techniques, abbreviated as Nether Domain, its power far exceeding the sum of the first four moves, without this move, the latter four could not be executed.
A long sword had appeared in Dai Ying’s hand at some point, strange runes beginning to appear on the sword body, emitting a deep blue light with an extremely evil aura.
Faint shrill roars echoed from the sword body, this move was more like a domain than sword moves.
Pitch black energy erupted suddenly, the area plunging into darkness, soon turning deep blue, the extremely compressed energy decomposing the ground beneath her feet, not even dust remaining.
Huo Yuhao’s gaze flickered slightly at the sight, he couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.
“Nine Netherworld Absolute Techniques, truly sword moves refined to the extreme.”
“Your teacher must be an excellent swordsman.”
“At least more exquisite than the techniques of the Douluo Continent and even the gods of the God Realm.”
While praising, Huo Yuhao boldly thrust out the Sun Wheel Spear in his hand, the golden spear tip colliding violently with the deep blue domain!
An invisible shockwave erupted from the point of contact between the spear tip and the domain, Huo Yuhao remained unmoved thanks to Kamui, but the surrounding forest suffered.
The shockwave carrying the collision’s impact swept across half the forest, golden light and deep blue tearing apart and decomposing all organic and inorganic matter, the massive sound audible even in Xilu City.
Massive amounts of soil were hurled into the sky, turning to dust in the shockwave, enveloping the entire forest with the airflow, the whole forest like it had encountered a sandstorm.
Soon a brilliant golden beam burst from the collision core, igniting all elements, triggering elemental explosions, directly vaporizing several distant mountain peaks, the golden light gradually fading, leaving only thick dust obscuring all sight.
The thick clouds in the sky were split in two, presenting a faint golden color in the night, likely to leave another urban legend in the Magic Net.
Huo Zhanji awoke faintly on a distant rock wall, feeling pain all over his body, but sensing with spiritual power that his bones were uninjured, internals too, only muscles severely damaged.
As if someone had done it deliberately.
He then saw the battle between his sister and father in the distance through the super vision from the Spiritual Eye.
Rather than a battle, it was more like his sister getting a thorough beating from father.
Seeing father holding a brilliant spear slowly walking toward his sister, Huo Zhanji’s pupils contracted, struggling madly, wanting to break free from the rock wall’s restraints.
Little Evil and Ice Silkworm emerged from Huo Zhanji’s body, one pulling with tentacles, the other digging with its jaws capable of biting through hard ice.
Watching sister and father clash again, the terrifying energy shockwave blew Little Evil and Ice Silkworm senseless, falling to the ground and fainting.
“Sister!”
“Father!”
“Nooo!!”
“I can’t do anything!”
Huo Zhanji hated himself for only being able to act as a camera, unable to do anything, twisting his body madly, wanting to break through the thick rock wall.
“No need to be nervous, Father did not strike to kill.”
“He is only angry, not with killing intent.”
A gentle voice seemed to carry a strange power entering Huo Zhanji’s ears, instantly calming his anxious and worried heart.
He turned his head and saw a blond priest floating beside him, his clear golden eyes showing no emotion, only absolute calm.
“Who are you?”
The priest looked at this child of the father from another spacetime and said:
“My name is Adam.”
“Just a priest.”
Huo Zhanji reacted, his face showing shock and fear as he said:
“I… I remember!”
“You… you’ve been following me and sister!”
“No, that’s not right, why didn’t sister and I notice you!”
Adam’s face still held that same gentle smile, seemingly unchanged.
“Observation is my duty.”
Huo Zhanji did not dwell further on the topic, it was all past events, no use dwelling.
“Is my sister okay!”
Adam waved his palm, Huo Zhanji’s body suddenly turned illusory, detaching from the rock wall.
This was an application of dream authority, first dragging the body into the Dream Space, then pulling it back.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to see.”
Adam ignored the shock on Huo Zhanji’s face, leading him toward Huo Yuhao’s location.
The thick smoke on the open ground gradually dissipated, the golden light and deep blue had disappeared, the elements ignited by the Sun Wheel Spear now calming, returning to their original harmless appearance.
Huo Yuhao had hands in pockets, black eyes looking at the black-haired girl half-kneeling on the ground.
The black-haired girl’s hair, originally tied in a side ponytail, had come loose, draping to the ground, stained with dust.
Her palms trembled nonstop, blood trickling from her mouth, the mark left by the Sun Wheel Spear’s eruption only a meter from her, several distant peaks turned to nothing.
Her heart couldn’t help but feel some relief, if that strike had truly hit, her suppressed level eighty Soul Douluo would have been reduced to ashes.
“Dai Ying, right?”
“What a ghostly surname.”
“Why did you withdraw that move at the end?”
Two extremely similar pairs of eyes met, at the moment of collision, this fool had actually withdrawn the Nine Netherworld Absolute Techniques Fifth Form herself.
Clearly not his opponent, yet daring to hold back in battle. If Huo Yuhao really wanted to kill her, she would have been crazily tormented by Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu in the first round.
From beginning to end, Huo Yuhao held only anger, not killing intent.
Dai Ying’s voice trembled slightly, her originally pleasant voice now somewhat hoarse.
“Defense is different from active attack.”
“Cannot actively attack the father who gave me life, that’s the bottom line.”
Huo Yuhao frowned, somewhat displeased as he said:
“Foolish!”
“I am absolutely not the same person as him.”
“Your filial piety is given to the wrong person.”
Who started the foolish filial piety trend on the Douluo Continent anyway!
Dai Ying looked at Huo Yuhao seriously and said:
“You held back at the end too, didn’t you?”
“Heh.”
Huo Yuhao chuckled lightly and said to her:
“Can you still stand?”
Dai Ying nodded firmly, hands on knees, shakily standing up.
Her clothes were now tattered, exposing fair smooth skin, Huo Yuhao took a black trench coat from the Storage Soul Tool and tossed it to her to wear.
At this moment, Adam also brought Huo Zhanji before Huo Yuhao.
Huo Zhanji hurried to Dai Ying’s side and said:
“Sister! Are you okay?”
Dai Ying gently shook her head and said:
“I’m fine.”
Huo Yuhao looked at Huo Zhanji whose calves were trembling and said:
“Naturally kind Huo family kid, come, let me heal you.”
Huo Zhanji was somewhat afraid, but under Dai Ying’s push, came before Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao’s large hand patted Huo Zhanji’s shoulder, deep blue runes lit up on his arm, Reverse Cursed Technique activating directly.
Huo Zhanji suddenly felt his spiritual power consumption drop, his internal injuries instantly healed, not even a trace of hidden injury left.
He looked curiously at his hands, seeming to think of something, pulling at Huo Yuhao’s trench coat and saying:
“Can you heal sister too?”
Huo Yuhao looked at Dai Ying and said:
“Naturally evil Dai family kid, come here.”
Dai Ying limped over to Huo Yuhao, his large hand gently patting her head, healing her as well.
The healing didn’t take long, after she was healed, Huo Yuhao looked at the two, Adam had gone who-knows-where.
“Let’s go, to my home, I’ll treat you two to a meal.”
“Next time you come, remember to change your name, don’t give me the surname Dai.”
“To put it bluntly, you traversed the right timeline.”
“Going back to the past of your timeline and meeting me, then saying you’re surnamed Dai, I guarantee you’d get beaten too!”
The Huo Yuhao before Qiankun Valley of Love and Inquiry hearing his descendants surnamed Dai, which Huo Yuhao could hold it in?
……
“Young miss, time to sleep.”
Audrey stood elegantly beside the sofa, Xia Die hugging the Shadow Cat on the sofa, chin resting on the cat’s head, the Shadow Cat already asleep, snoring nonstop from its mouth.
“Audrey sister, I still want to wait for Father to return.”
Audrey sighed softly, no longer persuading, Adam had sent her information that things were handled.
At that moment, a voice sounded in the spacious villa.
“Why hasn’t my Die Bao gone to sleep yet?”
“Come, up you go!”
Huo Yuhao suddenly appeared before Xia Die, happily picking her up and lifting her high.
In a little while, probably won’t be able to do this anymore, girls grow fast.
Xia Die was a bit shy, but didn’t dislike it.
The Shadow Cat fell straight to the ground, still not waking, it had enviable sleep quality, though more likely it was too fat, fat cushioning the impact.
Dai Ying and Huo Zhanji watched Xia Die enviously.
Their timeline’s Huo Yuhao hadn’t held them like this in a long time.
“Still some time, let’s have a meal together, I’ll cook.”
“Audrey stay too, that brat Adam who-knows-where he ran off to.”
“Amon too, went to play Pirate King on the high seas.”
“Only Die Bao is obedient!”
Audrey led the group to the dining room, Huo Yuhao quickly stir-frying in the kitchen, making food.
The cookware here was all custom-made by Huo Yuhao, extremely close to modern, currently widespread on the Heaven Dou Plain.
“Come on, everyone try it!”
Huo Yuhao naturally sat at the head, letting them start eating.
Huo Zhanji and Dai Ying were a bit reserved, but eyes lit up after one bite.
Though timelines and worldlines differed, this culinary skill was the same, the familiar taste in their memories.
