After Looting the Duke's Mansion Treasury, Parallel Yuhao Set the Duke's Mansion Ablaze!

Huo Yuhao chopped off one of the Duchess's fingers with a single slash, drawing a shriek of agony from her.

She kept begging Huo Yuhao for mercy, but it was as if he could not hear her. A gentle smile remained on his face, and then another sword strike came down!

Another of the Duchess's fingers was severed by Huo Yuhao!

The Duchess was in unbearable pain, but she soon realized that begging was useless. The pleas from her mouth gradually turned into curses!

Yet Huo Yuhao remained the same, a faint gentle smile on his face as he chopped off the Duchess's fingers one by one.

After cutting off all ten of the Duchess's fingers, he removed her socks.

A pair of beautiful little feet was soon exposed, and Huo Yuhao praised them. "What a pair of jade feet."

But the sword in his hand fell again the very next second.

The same method, the same routine—he directly cut off all ten of the Duchess's toes.

Once he had finished everything, he found it rather boring, so he simply dismembered the Duchess and tossed her body aside.

He had finally granted the Duchess release, but after the torture she had endured, she had truly experienced what hell on earth was.

Only then did Huo Yun'er step forward and embrace Huo Yuhao.

The more crazed Huo Yuhao acted, the more it proved how deeply suppressed his emotions were, and Huo Yun'er's heart ached terribly for him.

She could not help but cry, yet Huo Yuhao smiled and stroked Huo Yun'er's cheek. "Mother, no one will ever bully us again. If anyone still dares to, I'll make them end up just like the Duchess."

Huo Yuhao said, "Now, let's get ready and leave."

Gasp!

Upon seeing this scene, everyone within the Plane Rift involuntarily sucked in a breath of cold air.

The Duchess and the White Tiger Duke within the Plane Rift were especially terrified when they saw how miserably the Parallel World's Duchess had died.

Was it still too late to go apologize to Huo Yuhao on their knees?

They were also afraid that the Huo Yuhao of this world would turn dark and become like the Huo Yuhao of the Parallel World.

Then they would truly be finished.

Tang San, meanwhile, involuntarily broke out in a cold sweat.

After all, he knew very well what he himself had done.

Although he was immensely powerful, seeing the Duchess's fate still frightened him somewhat.

That lunatic... He won't slaughter the Parallel World Me someday too, will he?

No, no, how could that be possible?

I'm a God King. I could crush him to death with ease.

Tang San muttered to himself inwardly.

The God of Destruction beside him had been watching Tang San all along. He immediately noticed Tang San's odd behavior and sneered at him. "Sea God, you seem to be sweating. Why are you afraid of just a child? Or is it that you have a guilty conscience?"

The surrounding gods could not help turning to look at Tang San, their hearts filled with doubt. Why was Tang San sweating? Could it really be as the God of Destruction said—did he have a guilty conscience?

Then what had he done to feel so guilty?

Tang San merely snorted and shook his head. "It's just a little hot. This damn place is ridiculous."

He fanned himself with his palm.

Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue also saw their discussion.

Meaningful smiles appeared on both their lips.

"Oh? It seems things are getting interesting."

"I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens next."

Everyone continued watching the scene.

At this moment.

Within the scene.

After killing the Duchess, Huo Yuhao did not rush to leave with Huo Yun'er.

He and Huo Yun'er first separated to wash themselves, then changed into clean clothes.

Afterward, he headed straight for the White Tiger Duke's treasury.

The White Tiger Duke's treasury was normally guarded by heavily armed soldiers, but now everyone in the Duke's Mansion was dead, leaving only Huo Yuhao and Huo Yun'er. Naturally, no one was guarding the treasury.

Thus, Huo Yuhao brought Huo Yun'er directly into it.

He ignored everything else. After finding several Storage Soul Tools, he stuffed every item he could take into them.

However, the White Tiger Duke's treasury was rather shabby. Whether the valuables had been hidden elsewhere or for some other reason, the main things here were merely some money, pills, and various kinds of Soul Tools.

Huo Yuhao did not recognize the pills, nor did he know how to use the Soul Tools, but he packed them all up and took them away.

Even after he had finished everything, he did not immediately leave.

After all, the mansion's roster would surely have a clear record of exactly how many people were in the Duke's Mansion.

Once the White Tiger Duke discovered that everyone in the Duke's Mansion was dead and carefully inspected the corpses, wouldn't the investigation lead straight to them?

Therefore, what Huo Yuhao had to do was destroy the evidence.

He piled all the corpses together, then set a fire in the Duke's Mansion.

The corpses were soon burned beyond recognition, like chunks of charcoal, while the entire Duke's Mansion was set ablaze.

Only then did Huo Yuhao leave with his mother. They set off along secluded paths, moving away from the Star Luo Empire and heading toward the Heaven Dou Empire.

Seeing this.

The soul masters within the Plane Crack were once again dumbfounded.

"This child is not only ruthless in his methods, but his thinking is also so meticulous..."

"Now there truly is no evidence left regarding the people of the Duke's Mansion!"

The soul masters could not help sighing in amazement.

They had originally thought the White Tiger Duke might have a chance to uncover the truth afterward.

But judging from the current situation, investigate what? Parallel Yuhao had burned everything clean with one fire, leaving behind not the slightest trace of evidence. He had taken Huo Yun'er and fled far away. The White Tiger Duke likely would not figure it out for the rest of his life.

Ning Rongrong could not help saying:

"I never expected him to actually succeed."

"This kid may be ruthless, but in this world where the strong devour the weak, how could anyone succeed without being a little ruthless?"

"It really is eye-opening."

Qian Renxue said, "This child suits my taste quite well. Decisive in killing and astonishingly bold. It would have been wonderful if I had met him back then."

Huo Yuhao also stared blankly at the scene.

At first, he had felt that the Huo Yuhao of the Parallel World had gone a little too far.

But after listening to the exchanges among the gods in the Chat Room, he suddenly felt that his Parallel World Self had not really done anything wrong.

After all, the people of the Duke's Mansion had brought all of this upon themselves.

And most importantly, his mother in the Parallel World had not died!

Furthermore, with the other Huo Yuhao's help, she had successfully escaped the Duke's Mansion and obtained so much wealth. They would surely no longer have to worry about food or clothing in the future.

But what about himself?

To put it bluntly, he had been utterly useless.

His mother had been murdered, while he was still suffering miserably in the Duke's Mansion.

At that thought, Huo Yuhao could not help sighing.

"The other me really is outstanding..."

"If I had been able to be like him sooner, Mother would not have died..."

"I really was too cowardly."
