The Dragon Slayer Became the Greedy Evil Dragon

Watching Xiao Hongchen's excited expression, Huo Yuhao thought that it was only because he had never seen any of the film and television works from Huo Yuhao's previous life. Otherwise, wouldn't he have immediately said, "If you do not disdain me, Xiao is willing to take you as his adoptive father"?

As long as Xiao Hongchen did not create a Soul Tool called the Fangtian Halberd, Huo Yuhao did not mind becoming his adoptive father at all.

Meng Hongchen also nodded with a sigh. "Putting everything else aside, Mental Detection and Sharing alone is enough to ensure that any Soul Engineer who experiences it firsthand will never be able to leave you."

"Come to think of it, Yuhao, was this soul skill of yours really brought by a ten-year Soul Beast? What kind of ten-year Soul Beast could grant such a terrifying soul skill?"

Unlike Meng Hongchen, who was asking despite knowing the answer, Xiao Hongchen was genuinely curious about this question. What kind of absurd Soul Beast could provide a cheat-like soul skill after only ten years?

"Wind Baboon."

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's answer, Xiao Hongchen nearly stumbled and fell. His eyes widened as he cried out at Huo Yuhao.

"Wind Baboon? Yuhao, are you joking with me? A trash Soul Beast like a Wind Baboon can grant such a powerful soul skill?"

What? You dared disrespect the famous Pseudo God-Slaying Wind Baboon? You are already dead.

After silently making a joke to himself, Huo Yuhao coughed twice. "I don't know what happened either. Maybe that Wind Baboon mutated."

Xiao Hongchen instinctively nodded in agreement, then immediately put on a smug expression again. "That's possible. Looks like your luck is pretty good too, Yuhao. You're almost catching up to me."

Meng Hongchen looked down on her brother. What standing did he have to compare his luck with Huo Yuhao, Douluo Continent's heaven-appointed Child of Destiny?

Not to mention anything else, even if he reached the rank of Titled Douluo in the future, the combined age of all his Soul Rings would never surpass Huo Yuhao's first Soul Ring!

Seeing Huo Yuhao's calm expression, Meng Hongchen suddenly felt strangely complicated. It was like having Mental Detection and Sharing cast on herself—knowing the truth while watching Huo Yuhao explain it like this gave her a unique feeling.

Xiao Hongchen, who was being kept in the dark, knew nothing of these twists and turns. He only wanted to bring Huo Yuhao back to the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy as soon as possible and show him off properly before his grandfather.

He had merely accompanied his sister on an outing to clear her mind, yet he had encountered a Human Cheat like Huo Yuhao. Xiao Hongchen felt that he was simply the Chosen One!

Right, once we get to the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy, I absolutely can't let anyone else snatch Yuhao away. Yuhao is my good brother. No one can take him from me! Not even Meng!

When Xiao Hongchen imagined showing off before everyone at the Soul Master Competition with Huo Yuhao's help, giving the Douluo Three Kingdoms a little shock from a Humanoid Self-Propelled 100% Accuracy Turret, he could not help trembling faintly in excitement. A perverted chuckle even escaped his lips.

"Eww—"

Meng Hongchen shot her brother a disgusted look, then immediately moved away from that creep and went over to Huo Yuhao's side.

"Yuhao, what do you think of Soul Tools? You don't share the prejudice against Soul Tools that those traditionalists from the Douluo Three Kingdoms have, do you?"

Huo Yuhao shook his head. "Of course not."

"In my opinion, Soul Tools are the mainstream of this era. Those unwilling to embrace the mainstream and only wanting to cling to their so-called traditions are destined to be gradually eliminated."

With memories from his previous life, Huo Yuhao knew very well that Soul Masters with Battle Armor and Soul Masters without Battle Armor were two completely different concepts.

And Battle Armor was merely the tip of the technological iceberg!

Huo Yuhao's words seemed to trigger some strange switch in Xiao Hongchen. He no longer had the leisure to keep grinning like a creep, instead nodding solemnly.

"That's right! The power of Soul Tools is completely beyond the imagination of those traditional Soul Masters! It's laughable that those people from the Douluo Three Kingdoms still live in the so-called glory and traditions of their past, always looking down on Soul Engineers."

"One day, the Sun Moon Empire will lead the Soul Tool Master Legion to shatter their dreams and illusions!"

Both Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen had absolute confidence in this.

However, seeing their utterly convinced expressions, Huo Yuhao outwardly agreed with them while writing in the Diary.

Given the Sun Moon Empire's level of Soul Tool technology, if everything went smoothly, they would not need many years at all before they could crush through the borders of the Original Douluo Three Kingdoms and completely unify the continent.

Clearly, unification would have been the best possible outcome for Douluo Continent. Soul Tools could then have been widely promoted, bringing countless conveniences even to ordinary people.

But there was a certain God King who preferred to remain anonymous, and at the most critical moment, he pulled off a deus ex machina! He forcibly prevented the unification of Douluo Continent, leaving the continent divided.

Such a thing would indeed be unimaginable if it involved anyone else, but for that Tang God King, it was perfectly normal! After all, without his interference, Douluo Continent would have been unified by Spirit Hall ten thousand years ago! Yet he stopped it from happening, claiming it was for the good of the continent, when in reality he used Tang Sect Hidden Weapons to make a fortune from war.

Whether destroying Spirit Hall was good or bad could be set aside for now, but after Spirit Hall was destroyed, commoners completely lost the free awakening ceremonies it held. They even destroyed the City of Slaughter, where Evil Soul Masters had been imprisoned, allowing unrestrained Evil Soul Masters to ravage Douluo Continent at will. Expecting someone like that to consider ordinary people? That was clearly wishful thinking!

Forget it, forget it. No more talk about him. Bad luck! In any case, his selfishness was not something that began only a day or two ago. It had long since become ingrained, and there was no chance he would change in any way.

Spirit Hall?

Whether it was Meng Hongchen or the other women who saw the name of this force from ten thousand years ago in the Diary Copy, all of them froze slightly. Only after carefully recalling did they finally remember this name that had been buried for so long.

However, according to the historical records in their memories, Spirit Hall had not done a single good thing.

Every person in Spirit Hall had been wildly ambitious, attempting to dominate all of Douluo Continent and causing the deaths of countless innocent people in the process.

Fortunately, at the most critical moment, the great ancestor of the Tang Sect, Tang San, became the Sea God. Under his leadership, the First Generation Shrek Seven Devils, together with the Tang Sect Hidden Weapons that had become famous across the continent ten thousand years ago, ultimately shattered Spirit Hall's ambitions and restored peace and stability to Douluo Continent.

Yet now, commoners had no channel at all to awaken their martial souls, while Shrek, which had once called itself a Commoner Academy, now required applicants to possess a recommendation letter from a Main City Lord just to qualify for admission.

The Dragon Slayer had ultimately become the Greedy Evil Dragon.

So Spirit Hall was not entirely as evil as the history books described, and that Sea God Tang San was not nearly as righteous and magnificent as the legends claimed!

Everything matched. It all matched.

The selfish and narrow-minded Tang San, after discovering that a Child of Destiny had appeared on Douluo Continent and might allow it to break free from the oppression and exploitation of the God Realm, had unhesitatingly split his own daughter's soul into three parts. Then, through a series of plans, he sought to bring Huo Yuhao under his command and ultimately turn Douluo Continent into the Tang family's backyard.

As expected of you, Tang God King!

But this time, your so-called Millennium Plan is destined to fail! Huo Yuhao is no longer the Child of Destiny you can manipulate at will! Even knowing that he will have to face a God King, he has no intention of lowering his head and admitting defeat!

The same thought appeared in the minds of every woman who possessed a Diary Copy.
