Daughter of Destiny, Huo Yutong

While Shrek Academy was bustling with activity, the scenes on the Sky Curtain continued to play.

"That Tang San is truly despicable. He was the previous Child of Destiny in our world, and only became a god with the help of the World Will!"

"As if that weren't bad enough, instead of repaying the favor, he secretly schemed for ten thousand years, trying to take complete control of Douluo Continent and turn it into the Tang Family's private garden!"

The blue-clad girl curled her lip disdainfully. "What an ungrateful wolf. You can't raise him right."

"Exactly! By comparison, our Yu Tong is so much better!"

The man in imperial robes nodded, sounding rather emotional.

"Brother Tian, you really dote on Sister Yu Tong!" The blue-clad girl said jealously.

"Yu Tong had a pitiful upbringing. Her father never valued her, and her mother died of illness when she was still young."

A look of pity flashed through the man's eyes. "As her older sister, how can you be jealous of your own sister?"

"Why don't you mention that Sister Yu Tong grew up with you?"

The blue-clad girl rolled her eyes, seeming to have grown used to this appeal to her feelings. "Besides, didn't you resurrect Sister Yu Tong's mother ages ago?"

The man in imperial robes only gave an awkward smile.

Child of Destiny?

Yu Tong?

Resurrection?

Those completely unrelated words left everyone wide-eyed.

So the legendary Child of Destiny really existed!

Tang San, who had become a god ten thousand years ago, had been the Child of Destiny of his era.

And this time, the Child of Destiny—or rather, Daughter of Destiny—was a girl named Yu Tong!

Even more astonishing, the man on the Sky Curtain had not only won over the Daughter of Destiny, but had also gained the incredible power to resurrect the dead.

Star Luo Empire, Imperial Palace.

"Daughter of Destiny? Find her... Find her for me!"

Xu Jiawei's breathing stopped for several seconds. His eyes gleamed as he said excitedly, "As long as we have Xiao Tian and this Daughter of Destiny, our Star Luo Empire..."

"Yu Tong, a girl, grew up with him..."

Wang Xian'er's eyes flickered slightly. She turned to Gu Tian and asked gently, "Xiao Tian, do you know a little girl named Yu Tong?"

At her words, everyone present turned to look at Gu Tian.

"I don't know her."

Under everyone's gaze, Gu Tian shook his head calmly.

"I see."

Wang Xian'er nodded with a smile, then said to Xu Jiawei, "If I'm not mistaken, there's a good chance that the girl named Yu Tong is in Star Luo City—and that she comes from a noble family."

"I think so too."

Xu Jiawei turned to his trusted aide. "Spread the word. Within a day, investigate every noble family in Star Luo City, great and small. Pay special attention to girls who are neglected. We must find the girl named Yu Tong."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The aide soon left.

Everyone turned their attention back to the Sky Curtain.

Meanwhile, Gu Tian furrowed his brows and fell into thought.

If all he had to go on was the name Yu Tong, he truly had no idea who she was.

After all, no female character whose name included the characters Yu Tong had appeared in the Original Work.

But if he added the clues that her father had neglected her, her mother had died of illness, and she was the Child of Destiny, he might have guessed the answer.

It was just that he couldn't accept it.

The future God of Emotion, one of the Twelve God Kings who ruled the Divine Realm, the Tang Family's dog... son-in-law, Huo Yuhao, had become a girl!

This was absurd!

Gu Tian looked up at the Light Screen in the sky. He was extremely curious whether Huo Yuhao, that ridiculously overpowered cheat, had really turned into a little girl.

Inside the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.

"Yu Tong... I feel like I've heard that name somewhere."

A mature woman in luxurious clothes watched the Sky Curtain. The name Yu Tong sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it.

She was the mistress of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, the legitimate wife of White Tiger Duke Dai Hao, and a member of the Zhu Family of the Hell Spirit Cat.

"Could it be her?"

Just then, the White Tiger Duchess pictured a little girl in her mind.

"No, that can't be right. How could she be a Child of Destiny, like Sea God Tang San ten thousand years ago, when her Innate Soul Power is only Level One?"

A moment later, she dismissed the thought. "What is there to worry about in a good-for-nothing with Innate Soul Power Level One?"

At the same time, a timid little girl stared at the scenes on the Sky Curtain, frozen in place.

Yu Tong?

Could it be her?

But the girl soon shook her head in self-deprecation, thinking she was getting ahead of herself.

Her Innate Soul Power was only Level One. Even reaching Level 10 would be difficult. How could she possibly be the legendary Child of Destiny?

The scene on the Sky Curtain shifted.

A young woman appeared before everyone.

She had lovely features, long hair cascading down her back, and smooth, pale skin. A vertical eye sat on her forehead, seeming to contain the truths of heaven and earth.

The most striking feature of the young woman was undoubtedly her eyes.

Each held a double pupil, one rose gold and the other purplish gold, both shining like stars.

"Boom—"

Under everyone's gaze, the image froze.

[Huo Yutong—]

[Huo Fei of the Star Luo Empire, founder of the Spirit Soul System, head of the Spirit Transferring Department, God of Emotion.]

[Her original name was Dai Yutong. She was the illegitimate daughter of Dai Hao, the White Tiger Duke of the Star Luo Empire, and had a difficult childhood.]

[She failed to awaken the Evil Eye White Tiger of the White Tiger Lineage. Instead, she awakened the Spirit Eye Martial Soul, and her Innate Soul Power was only Level One!]

[This made the White Tiger Duchess's bullying of Huo Yuhao and his mother even more brazen!]

[At the darkest point in her life, she met him—and found a salvation she had never known before!]

Unlike before, as each line of golden text appeared, the scene changed along with it.

A lavishly dressed child ordered several guards to beat a pitiful little girl.

A beautiful woman who looked rather frail hurriedly shielded the beaten child with her body.

But the lavishly dressed child showed no sign of stopping. Instead, he laughed loudly and ordered the guards to keep beating her.

The scenes flashed by rapidly.

In the end, the frail, beautiful woman died in bed.

All that remained was the little girl, quietly weeping beside her bed.

It was a heartbreaking sight.

"Brother Dai, you were clever all your life, but foolish for a moment!"

Xu Jiawei narrowed his eyes slightly. The corners of his mouth lifted, and he made no effort to hide his glee.

When he first saw that the Daughter of Destiny, Huo Yutong, was Huo Hao's daughter, he was startled.

As the most destabilizing force in the Star Luo Empire, White Tiger Duke Dai Hao was the last person Xu Jiawei wanted to see prosper.

No matter how little Huo Yutong was valued, the Dai blood still flowed through her veins. She was Dai Hao's daughter.

But her mother had died in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. That changed everything.

To Huo Yutong, the White Tiger Dai Family had become her enemy the moment her mother died, no longer her family.

Even though this was only a glimpse of the future and nothing had happened yet, a rift had already formed in her heart—and it would not be easy to mend.
