Why Are You Shouting So Loud, Qian Jie

Huang Hao never expected time to pass so quickly, or rather, he had no concept of time at all. Suddenly, it was time to fight the Herrscher of Ice.

Huang Hao slowly calmed down. "What time is it? How long until the afternoon? How long will it take to get there?"

Angela: "About two or three more hours. It should take about an hour to get there."

After hearing this, Huang Hao immediately sprang into action. "Angela, thank you. You stay here and watch the house. I'll be back soon."

Angela pouted playfully. "Father, I don't think you should go alone. If you leave, you'll get lost right away."

Huang Hao thought about it and realized she was probably right. He said helplessly, "Alright, An'er. But I'll say this again, call me 'brother' when we're outside, or I might get caught."

Angela nodded, and they set off together.

On the way, Huang Hao chatted with Angela. "Angela, psychologically speaking, how old would you say you are?"

Angela: "Father, I just know a little more than others. By rights, I should be 10 years old."

Huang Hao: "10 years old, huh? I don't even have a girlfriend yet, and I already have a child. This time, let's be more serious, Angela. You're human now, so you need to prioritize your own life. Don't look down on life like you used to. Live a little more from now on. Actually, I've always wanted to treat you like a child."

Angela: "Father, you're not that old, why are you talking so much? And what do you mean by 'used to'? I don't have a past."

Huang Hao just smiled and didn't answer. "Speaking of which, I didn't expect things to turn out this way, but since I'm here, I want to do my best."

"Like that girl lying down ahead, I want to protect those I'm familiar with. For strangers, I'll try my best. Then... wait? A girl?"

Huang Hao snapped back to attention and noticed. "Wait, who would be in the middle of nowhere like this?"

The girl mumbled something unintelligible, then floated into the air.

Huang Hao: "Wait, middle of nowhere, afternoon, Herrscher of Ice, me? What are the odds?"

"Angela, you hide first. It's dangerous. After all, I consider you human, and I don't have a backup for you."

Angela stared blankly, not understanding what Huang Hao was talking about.

Huang Hao was getting anxious and was about to say something when he felt a cold wind blow.

"No more thinking about it!"

Huang Hao made a decisive move and immediately ran off with Angela in his arms.

"Even though you're not my biological child, you're still my child. You can't get hurt. Let's hurry back, we've found the person!"

Huang Hao spoke to Angela as he looked back at the pursuing Herrscher of Ice.

Angela felt a pang of regret. "Am I dragging Father down? I'm sorry..."

Seeing Angela so dejected, Huang Hao remembered she was just a child and comforted her. "It's okay, just be more careful next time. With the Imaginary Tree's endorsement, that thing behind us can't catch up. You're truly a Herrscher that Qian Jie tore apart with his bare hands."

"Oh, right, do you know how to get back to that space?"

Angela replied from within Huang Hao's embrace, "Yes."

Huang Hao: "Alright then, you go back first."

Angela shook her head. "Does Father want to deal with this monster alone?"

Huang Hao felt a touch of emotion. "Don't worry, of course not. There will be an uncle joining us later."

The Herrscher of Ice (As if I'm not here) then unleashed a blast of ice and sent several ice shards flying.

Seeing the ice shards coming, Huang Hao used fire to send Angela flying away and turned to face the first Herrscher.

"Alright, let me test this power."

Huang Hao summoned black fire and, mimicking the Herrscher of Ice, threw several fireballs. Their attacks collided, and for a moment, they were evenly matched.

The Herrscher of Ice grew agitated, its attacks becoming more ferocious. Huang Hao gradually began to fall behind.

"Damn, the first phase is over this quickly? I feel like I can't win."

Just as Huang Hao was contemplating self-immolation to escape, he saw Angela pulling someone towards him from a distance.

Huang Hao panicked. "I told Angela not to come! And she's dragging a stranger? Go back quickly!"

The person heard him and immediately cursed, "Damn it, I'm here to help you! If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have come!"

Huang Hao, in the middle of the fight, froze when he heard the curse. The Herrscher of Ice seized the opportunity and slammed him with an ice shard.

"Father!" Angela rushed over and helped Huang Hao up.

"This won't do, my strength is still too weak. I should have trained more these past few days."

The person walked over. "Hey, get out of the way, I'm here for revenge."

Huang Hao: "Who are you? So arrogant? This is a Herrscher! Leave if you don't want trouble."

"I am Qian Jie!" Qian Jie responded arrogantly. "So weak, let me handle it."

Huang Hao was also provoked. "Come on, let's compete. See who can kill this Herrscher of Ice first."

"Let's compete, who's afraid of who."

It's unclear if the Herrscher of Ice had any sentience at this point, but it watched the two argue, ignoring them, and angrily attacked.

"Hmph, I'm going first," Qian Jie immediately charged forward.

"Why are you shouting so loud! You kid, wait for me."

Angela: I brought people here, and I don't even get a thank you?

With no other choice, Angela watched the two of them rush forward, shouting, "Go, weird uncle! Go, Father!"

Qian Jie turned back and roared, "Call me 'brother'! Wait, you're his dad?"

Huang Hao: "...I'll explain after we finish this."

"I'll have you arrested later."
