Huo Yuhao: It's Over, My Secret Can't Be Kept
On the Lake of Life, Jin Li sat listlessly on the ground, her legs bent, her arms wrapped around her knees, her chin resting on her knees, her large golden eyes fixed on the calm, mirror-like surface of the lake before her.
She seemed to be talking to herself, or perhaps she was speaking to Huo Yuhao behind her.
"I wonder what Di Tian went off to do again. He jumped into the lake without saying a word."
Huo Yuhao stood not far behind her, his gaze also fixed on the deep green lake, his expression thoughtful.
He had clearly seen the expression on Di Tian when he drew the Black Dragon Reverse Scale from his body.
He had been to the bottom of the Lake of Life once, and he knew what kind of being lived there.
Di Tian's hasty dive into the lake was most likely to be to meet that mysterious Lord.
The reason that caused Di Tian to lose his composure so much most likely lies in the Black Dragon Reverse Scale that he took away.
What exactly did Di Tian sense from the Reverse Scale?
Huo Yuhao had a vague guess in his mind, but he still couldn't grasp the most crucial clue.
Just as he was concentrating on this matter, a person suddenly appeared in front of him out of nowhere.
Huo Yuhao's muscles tensed instantly, and he instinctively assumed a defensive posture.
His Divine Power has now reached the Spirit Domain Realm, and his perception is far more acute than that of ordinary Titled Douluo.
Ordinary people, let alone getting close, cannot escape his perception even from a hundred feet away.
But the person in front of him seemed to have walked out of the void without any warning or energy fluctuations, as if she had always been standing there and Huo Yuhao had just not noticed her.
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, his gaze falling on the other person's exquisitely beautiful face, which was almost unreal, and then he suddenly realized what was going on.
Isn't this the true master of the Star Dou Great Forest, the mysterious Lord that Di Tian mentioned?
Huo Yuhao's expression turned solemn, and he bowed slightly, saying, "Senior."
Upon hearing this, Jin Li turned her head sharply and immediately saw the tall, slender, and stunningly beautiful figure standing in front of Huo Yuhao.
Her large, golden eyes widened suddenly. After a moment of stunned silence, she sprang to her feet and quickly approached.
She knew every Ferocious Beast in the Core Circle Star Dou Great Forest, but she had never seen this woman before.
She tilted her head back, gazing at Gu Yuena's otherworldly beauty. A flicker of realization crossed her golden eyes, and she blurted out, "Are you the Lord?"
Gu Yuena turned her gaze to Jin Li, and her originally cold and indifferent purple eyes softened almost visibly.
She gently stroked Jin Li's long, molten gold-red hair with her slender, long fingers, her voice softer than before, carrying an almost indulgent intimacy. "That's right, I am your Lord. I have been slumbering at the bottom of the lake all these years, unable to watch you grow up, which is my regret."
Upon hearing this, Jin Li's large golden eyes suddenly lit up.
She tilted her head back, staring intently at Gu Yuena's breathtakingly beautiful face, her eyes filled with undisguised curiosity and affection. This was the first time she had ever seen the legendary Lord.
Di Tian's figure appeared silently on the shore. He stood quietly not far behind Gu Yuena, but his deep, abyss-like golden dragon eyes inadvertently darted back and forth between Gu Yuena and Huo Yuhao.
Gu Yuena gently patted Jin Li's head, then turned her gaze back to Huo Yuhao.
The gentleness in those purple eyes slowly faded, replaced by a scrutinizing and probing look.
She gazed at Huo Yuhao silently for a moment, then suddenly spoke, "We meet again."
Huo Yuhao nodded calmly, but inwardly he became wary.
Gu Yuena then cut to the chase, saying, "I won't beat around the bush with you. You've seen the person who gave you the Silver Dragon King Reverse Scale again, haven't you?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat, realizing that the visitor was indeed up to no good.
He didn't know how Gu Yuena figured it out, but he guessed it was definitely related to Di Tian's Reverse Scale.
Seeing that Huo Yuhao remained silent, Gu Yuena was not in a hurry and simply watched him quietly.
It was Di Tian who spoke first, "Boy, the Lord has come to see you personally today, which means he has already confirmed this matter, so you don't need to deny it anymore."
Huo Yuhao frowned, then slowly nodded. "Senior is right, I did see it."
Upon hearing this, Di Tian realized that he was right. The fact that the other party could conceal his senses meant that the place where they met was definitely not simple, and the "person" he had met there was even more extraordinary!
He suppressed the shock in his heart and asked again, "Where is the person who gave you the Silver Dragon King Reverse Scale? Don't worry, we are all Dragon Clan, we have no ill intentions towards you, we just want to see him."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao pursed his lips, his face remaining expressionless, but his Brain was racing, desperately trying to figure out how to answer this tricky question.
Taking them to see the person who Reverse Scale him was obviously out of the question.
Gu Yue is currently in a world ten thousand years in the future, and is not on the same timeline as the people in front of him.
As for directly admitting that he can travel through time?
That's absolutely impossible; it's his biggest secret.
While Huo Yuhao was rapidly weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Gu Yuena had already lost patience.
A thin layer of frost appeared on her exquisitely beautiful face, a dangerous light flashed deep in her purple pupils, and her voice suddenly turned cold, carrying an authoritative and resolute tone that brooked no dissent.
"Since you don't want to talk about it, then don't. I'll come and see for myself."
Before Huo Yuhao could react, he felt an unimaginably powerful Divine Power surging towards him like a tsunami.
His proud spiritual Divine Power Spirit Domain Realm, was as fragile as a paper barrier in the face of Gu Yuena's Divine Power, and was torn apart in no time.
That cold yet powerful Divine Power surged forward, breaking through his layers of mental defenses with unstoppable force, and directly penetrated the deepest part of his Spirit Sea.
Huo Yuhao's once bright and clear eyes suddenly lost all their luster in an instant. His pupils dilated, his eyes became empty, and he stood frozen in place like a puppet whose soul had been taken away, completely losing control of his body.
In his final moments before losing consciousness, only one thought flashed through Huo Yuhao's mind... It's over!
His teacher, Electrolux, had warned him long ago that this mysterious Lord beneath the Lake of Life possessed God Level strength, and even he, a former Demigod, was no match for him.
Now it seems the teacher was absolutely right. Compared to Gu Yuena's vast, star-like Divine Power, my cultivation level was nothing more than an ant.
He truly hadn't expected that his Lord would act so decisively and ruthlessly, attacking him without a word, clearly intending to forcibly probe his memories.
Now, all his secrets are probably out of reach.
