Huo Yuhao vs. Dai Yueheng (2)
"Hiss..."
Thirty-Second Arena.
The Players' Lounge on the left.
Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth and covered the upper half of his face with his hands to hide the distorted expression that he could feel even without looking in a mirror.
The snake breath was exhaled from between the lips and teeth.
Like a strong wind sweeping across wind-eroded rocks.
It makes strange noises.
Listen closely, and it sounds like a wounded and frenzied Ferocious Beast barely clinging to life.
If you look closely, you can only see a boy struggling in the mud.
at the same time.
In a place where you can neither hear nor see.
In the boy's Spiritual Space.
A heated debate about obsession is also underway.
"Yuhao, calm down..." The Sky Dream Ice Worm, now in human form, looked at Huo Yuhao, whose spiritual form was sometimes solid and sometimes ethereal, with a helpless expression. "Although I know that asking you to calm down... at least right now, is something you can't do, and I know you can't do, just like I couldn't stay calm in front of those bastards like Di Tian... but I must tell you, if you can only go on stage in this state in five minutes, you will have absolutely no chance of winning!"
"Little bug, that's not how you give advice!"
"You're leading him down the wrong path!"
"Hatred, if suppressed relentlessly, will only explode!"
"Even self- God of Destruction!"
"Only by venting, regaining composure... and then using that composure to carefully, little by little, reopen one's wounds, to dig out the rotten flesh that symbolizes hatred, can the problem truly be solved... instead of burying hatred for the sake of victory... Moreover, he can't even do that yet; all he can do right now is use hatred as motivation to strive for so-called victory!"
"Then what?"
"And then what?"
"He will fall into endless emptiness, into endless lamentation!"
"Because he will find that this victory... cannot change the facts that have already happened, and he can do nothing about it, even if he gives up everything!"
The gray orb of light retorted sharply.
This is unusually serious.
To be honest, Electrolux couldn't afford to be careless about this matter. It was the real name of this gray orb, the mighty Necromancer Saint, a being who, once he successfully ascended to godhood, could contend with First Level God, and even fight against the God King in his own Undead Plane. It was just a wisp of his divine consciousness remaining.
Electrolux's reason for refuting this was quite simple.
Huo Yuhao is his disciple.
As a teacher.
He couldn't bear to watch his disciple embark on a path of no return.
The key point is that he has the right to speak.
If it were a path he hadn't walked before, he would only tell Huo Yuhao his predictions and let Huo Yuhao choose whether or not to take it. But he had walked the path of hatred, so he naturally knew how painful it would be. Repeating the same mistakes might be an honor for a disciple, that is, taking over the problems that his teacher couldn't solve, solving them, and dispelling his teacher's obsession. But it would definitely be a disgrace for the teacher, because he failed to lead his disciple to an easier path!
But Sky Dream Ice Worm refused!
Yes, I admit you are stronger than me. Even if you only have a wisp of divine thought left, it is like a steel needle that can easily pierce through my wooden board. But you have not lived as long as I have, and your experience is no match for mine!
You are simply standing in the context of hundreds of years of time, repeatedly contemplating the nature of hatred!
But I stand within thousands of years of history, examining this hatred!
I understand your concern that Huo Yuhao might be consumed by hatred. However, you need to consider several things. First, Huo Yuhao is inherently single-minded. This single-mindedness allows him to be incredibly loyal to us. Once he trusts someone, he won't doubt them again. His tendency to remember kindness and hold grudges can be extreme. Second, Huo Yuhao's hatred is different from yours. It's the hatred for his mother's murder, while yours is merely a hatred stemming from romantic love. As a son, Huo Yuhao is caught in a dilemma, while your revenge only requires killing that despicable couple. Third, Huo Yuhao's current progress, whether in cultivation or anything else, is entirely driven by this single-minded determination. To put it bluntly, he's driven by revenge, by ambition, by a desire to prove himself, by a desire to show others, especially those from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, and by a desire to rightfully vindicate his mother. That's why he's persevered until now. You're telling him not to be driven by hatred, and while we both know that not being driven by hatred and giving up on revenge are two different concepts, he won't listen right now!
If this spirit is broken, the child will be ruined!
We should let him take revenge, or even lend him the power to do so, so that he can successfully take revenge. After he has taken his revenge, we should promptly set a new life goal for him and awaken his desire for the future, instead of telling him to be magnanimous in a cowardly manner!
Generosity my ass!
You're speaking from the perspective of someone who's been through it all!
It's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering!
Why didn't you consider not being driven by hatred back then?
Were you able to stay calm back then?
Therefore, Huo Yuhao was already troubled enough, but then in his mind, Sky Dream Ice Worm and Electrolux were arguing because of their different ideas.
Huo Yuhao had to endure the conflict between two opposing ideas.
He was suppressing the hatred in his heart.
"Is it painful?"
A sudden sound broke in.
Huo Yuhao was so frightened that his spiritual body immediately reverted to his physical body.
Open your eyes.
Put down your hands that were covering your face.
Look around.
Sky Dream Ice Worm and Electrolux stopped arguing and, using Huo Yuhao's perspective, looked around. Suddenly, Ye Qingcang, Wang Dong'er, and Xiao Xiao came into view, arriving silently and terrifyingly. They didn't even notice their presence.
In other words, if Ye Qingcang had just intended to attack Huo Yuhao, Huo Yuhao would have been finished with a single strike. Although Huo Yuhao himself couldn't possibly have detected Ye Qingcang, the fact that Ye Qingcang had two people with him—a million-year-old spiritual Soul Beast and a fragment of divine sense from a powerful being whose quality was no less than that of Deity —didn't reveal anything about them.
And it wasn't until Huo Yuhao put his hand down that he stopped.
Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao then saw Huo Yuhao's distorted expression, reddened eyes, dried tear stains on his face and indistinguishable water stains on his palms, as well as the kind of hatred that made him want to devour others.
"My opponent... is... Dai Yueheng."
"I just saw him."
"Besides him... there's also..."
Huo Yuhao had lost control of his emotions. His face was flushed, and his voice was hoarse. He subconsciously reached out and grabbed his hair, trying to calm himself down with pain, but Ye Qingcang grabbed his wrist. As a result, his emotions, which could not be roused by pain, made his voice distorted, fluctuating in pitch. "And that man and... his woman... that is, Dai Hao and that damned woman..."
"Although I really don't want to use this method, given your current emotions, I have to control the Dopamine, Endorphin, and other hormones in your body, as well as some of the brain stem cells that prevent you from thinking calmly..." Ye Qingcang sighed, gently shaking Huo Yuhao's wrist. Huo Yuhao immediately deflated like a punctured balloon, forcibly calming down, essentially entering a state of desirelessness under Ye Qingcang's guidance—a state commonly known as oneness with nature, even if it should be called pseudo-oneness with nature, "Now, reorganize your words and describe the phenomenon you just witnessed from an objective perspective!"
"Let me explain..."
The Sky Dream Ice Worm, wearing a hood, transformed into human form.
It was unusual that they didn't greet Ice Empress.
Normally, he would have a nonchalant and carefree expression, but at this moment he became unusually serious, even frowning.
"No, shut up and let him talk."
"Everyone has to walk their own path."
"Whether he still has the courage to walk... whether he has the courage to admit and speak the truth, that's what I want to judge from this."
Ye Qingcang showed no mercy whatsoever.
His tone was resolute.
This interrupted Sky Dream Ice Worm's words.
