Di Tian: Huo Yuhao Must Die!
After entering the room, Di Qiuer immediately closed the door.
The room wasn't big, about 30 square meters, with a bed, a desk, and a floor-to-ceiling window offering a view of Mingdu's nightscape.
She had just sat on the bed and hadn't even had a chance to test the firmness of the mattress when the moonlight outside the window suddenly dimmed for a moment.
A figure landed in the room without making a sound, as if emerging from the shadows.
Di Tian stood by the window, moonlight streaming in from behind him, illuminating him with a silvery halo. He looked at the girl with light golden hair beside the bed, his lips moved, but it took him several seconds to utter a sound.
"Auspicious Beast, is it really you?"
Di Qiuer tilted her head to look at him, her eyes filled with innocent confusion. She recognized those eyes and had seen that face before.
That was Di Tian from the Star Dou Forest.
"Are you Uncle Di Tian?" She blinked, her voice clear and straightforward like a young girl's. "What are you doing here?"
Di Tian didn't reply. Instead, he looked directly at Di Qiuer, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, and reached out his hand. His hand paused in mid-air for a moment, as if afraid that he would touch nothingness.
Finally, mustering his courage, he gently pressed his hand on the top of her head and ruffled her long, light blonde hair. He felt the warmth emanating from her hair in his palm; everything felt real, a living warmth.
"Uncle Di Tian, are you alright?" Di Qiuer looked up at him slightly, her Rose Red eyes filled with innocent confusion. For her, it had only been a day since she last saw Di Tian.
But the person before me had a gaze that carried the weight of something I hadn't seen in ten thousand years.
Di Tian withdrew his hand and squatted down in front of Di Qiuer. A rare hint of gentleness appeared on his usually cold and hard face, but beneath that gentleness lay deep self-mockery.
"Auspicious Beast," his voice had regained its usual calm, "You should live well here. At least it's safer here than in the Star Dou Forest."
"Don't tell anyone you've seen me. Study hard and observe carefully."
He wanted to take the Auspicious Beast back, but taking Auspicious Beast back would be even more dangerous and would further incite human greed.
Di Qiuer blinked. "Why?"
"Because in this era, the Emperor Auspicious Beast has been dead for ten thousand years." Di Tian stood up, the hem of his trench coat sweeping across the floor. "If you suddenly appear alive, many people will come looking for trouble. Humans will destroy the last sanctuary of the Star Dou Forest for the sake of the Soul Bone."
Di Qiuer nodded as if she understood, but she didn't know what had happened in the past ten thousand years.
When Di Tian, during the Douluo II Di Zhuan, heard about this last pure land in the Star Dou Forest, his eyes were filled with shock and doubt.
"What have humans done! Why is this the last pure land?!"
"Calm down, Di Tian. Keep watching, you'll find the answer eventually!" Bi Ji advised.
"But..." Di Tian wanted to say something, but then he saw that he had already put the reverse scale on the Emperor Auspicious Beast in the Heavenly Screen.
He heard his future self speak, his voice tinged with sadness. "I hope you won't be like last time."
Di Qiuer looked into Di Tian's eyes, and something seemed to flash across them. "Uncle Di Tian, what exactly happened?"
"The Spirit Pagoda established by Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao violated the original agreement. They no longer create Soul Spirit from dying Soul Beast, but forcibly transform Soul Beast into Soul Spirit. Moreover, they have also mastered the technology of Artificial Soul Spirit. The existence of us Soul Beast is a threat to humanity."
"In the end, the Soul Spirit didn't help us; instead, they became the last straw that broke our backs."
"We resisted, but we lost." Di Tian explained simply, but his exhaustion was palpable in those few words.
These words left Di Tian, who lived ten thousand years ago, feeling confused. He didn't know what Soul Spirit was, but judging from this incident, it should be similar to Soul Ring, except that it couldn't be stored for a long time like Soul Ring.
"What on earth is it that makes humans so indiscriminately slaughter Soul Beast?"
He pondered for a moment and decided to nip this thing called "Soul Spirit" in the bud before it could be developed.
Huo Yuhao, right? Shrek Academy, right?
Shrek Academy must Destruction!
Huo Yuhao must die!
For the sake of the Soul Beast Clan, he must die!
At this moment, Di Tian saw the drawbacks of the Soul Spirit, but seeing only the drawbacks was enough!
Moreover, with the death of the Auspicious Beast, Huo Yuhao has already been added to the death list.
No one can save him!
This beast tide must be planned in advance to catch humanity off guard!
He himself would go and kill Huo Yuhao!
On the Heavenly Screen, Di Qiuer didn't quite understand what Di Tian was saying, but she still nodded and said, "I understand."
Will I ever see you again?
Di Tian had already reached the window, the moonlight illuminating half of his face, making it appear deathly pale. He glanced back at her, his golden, vertical pupils reflecting the small figure beside the bed.
"Of course you can, but it will be a bit troublesome for you to return to the Star Dou Forest."
The auspicious Auspicious Beast is unaware that she will need to buy a ticket to visit her home later.
And the price is ridiculously high.
Of course, with Yin Hongye being so kind, she didn't need to worry about paying at all.
Yin Hongye simply snatched them all.
"I understand." Di Qiuer didn't ask any further questions; Di Tian clearly didn't want to talk about it.
Di Tian's figure quickly disappeared from the room, and moonlight once again filled the room, as if nothing had happened.
Di Qiuer sat on the edge of the bed, her fingertips touching the spot on her head where she had been rubbed; it was still a little warm. She didn't quite understand what Di Tian had said, but she remembered Di Tian telling her to watch carefully and study hard.
As for who he learned from, it should be the Red Lotus Douluo.
She kicked off her little leather boots, wrapped herself in the blanket, and stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.
I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
At the other end of the villa, the laboratory lights were still on.
Yin Hongye sat at his workbench, with three holographic screens floating in front of him. He knew that Di Tian had been there; Di Tian could not escape his senses.
But Qian Renxue and the others could easily avoid it.
He remembered Ling Zichen's original idea: to create Mecha that ordinary people could use, with power comparable to Titled Douluo, through the Soul Guidance Mecha and the Positive Cycle Source.
Unfortunately, Ling Zichen was wrong about one thing: ordinary people are not qualified to touch this Mecha.
He stood in front of the screen for a long time, then typed the last line of the experiment record:
"Topic: Activation of Soul Power in Individuals with Zero Soul Power. Direction: External Injection or Adaptation to a High-Concentration Soul Power Environment."
Thinking it over, he decided to leave immediately, intending to send the Auspicious Beast to school. As for its identity, that was easy enough; he could just hack into the Federation's system.
The Federation's defenses are like a sieve.
Yin Hongye stood up. The laboratory was still eerily quiet, but there were quite a few volunteers in the testing area who had obtained the Soul Power they had always dreamed of.
But their souls always felt as if they were soaking in lava, suffering endless torment.
This person is at least One-Ring Soul Master and at most a three-ring Soul Elder; the potion has already shown initial effects.
Unfortunately, due to side effects and the Federation government's desire for social stability, this drug was not widely adopted.
The main one is the one at the back, which is also the one Yin Hongye wanted.
Yin Hongye stepped out of the laboratory and instantly teleported out, blocking Di Tian's path.
"Red Lotus Douluo!"
