Tang Wulin's Redemption

At the entrance to a shabby little house in the White Tiger Duke's Residence.

Two six-year-old boys were tightly embracing each other.

The black-haired boy blinked his bright, watery eyes and looked at the blue-haired boy before him with concern.

"Yuhao, this time, I'll protect you."

A faint light flickered in Huo Yuhao's eyes. He stroked Tang Wulin's adorable cheek. "Thank you, Wulin."

Back then, with the help of a girl from Earth—Ouyang Luyao—Huo Yuhao had repeatedly foiled Tang San's plans and successfully changed the fates of Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena.

Afterward, Ouyang Luyao, who possessed Primordial Chaos Power, voluntarily returned to the Douluo World once more. She helped Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin escape Tang San's assimilation and successfully safeguarded the previous "Revolutionary Fruit."

Watching Tang San, Tang Wulin, and Huo Yuhao undergo such a dazzling and rewarding journey together, Xiao Wu, Gu Yuena, and Snow Empress could not help feeling deeply moved.

Thus, at Gu Yuena's suggestion, Tang Wulin, Gu Yuena, and Snow Empress brought Huo Yuhao to the Peerless Tang Clan Era, determined to change the unbearable experiences of his past.

The next moment, two breathtakingly beautiful figures emerged from the shadows. They were none other than Gu Yuena and Snow Empress, who had come with Tang Wulin.

Snow Empress teased, "Don't you think you came a little late? I don't even know how many times Dai Huabin had bullied Yuhao before this."

Just moments ago, Dai Huabin had brought a group of lackeys and personal guard soldiers to bully Huo Yuhao again, as usual.

In truth, Huo Yuhao had suffered Dai Huabin's humiliation and bullying since he was two years old. In fact, ever since Huo Yuhao was born, he and his mother—Huo Yun'er—had already been subjected to the duchess's oppression.

Fortunately, Tang Wulin had appeared in time this time and taught Dai Huabin a harsh, unforgettable lesson.

Gu Yuena frowned slightly. "Then how about we go straight back to when Yuhao was just born?"

Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched at that. He hurriedly stepped forward to stop her. "I think things are fine as they are..."

The next moment, a frail female voice suddenly came from a small path outside the house, interrupting Huo Yuhao.

"Yuhao, come eat some hot flatbread..."

Huo Yun'er came running over, treating the flatbread in her arms as though it were a treasure. She held the warm bread tightly against her chest and carefully handed it to her son.

As Huo Yuhao broke off half the flatbread for his mother, he listened to Huo Yun'er explain where it had come from.

As expected, Dai Luoli's mother had secretly given it to Huo Yun'er while she was hanging laundry in the washroom.

"Who are these people?"

Huo Yun'er did not take the half of flatbread Huo Yuhao offered. Instead, she looked at Tang Wulin, Gu Yuena, and Snow Empress with confusion.

Huo Yuhao explained, "I happened to meet these three friends while digging for wild vegetables today, so I made them a simple wild vegetable soup."

Tang Wulin immediately added, "Yuhao's cooking is incredible. The food he makes is definitely the best thing in the world."

Gu Yuena covered her mouth and laughed. "So we foodies decided to stick with Yuhao."

Snow Empress smiled. "Trading cooking skills for three bodyguards is a very profitable deal."

Tang Wulin clenched his fists. "Exactly. If Dai Huabin and the others dare come again, I'll use my fists to let them know that no one gets to bully my Yuhao."

After learning the situation, Huo Yun'er said helplessly, "You don't need to get dragged into this conflict for our sake. You should protect yourselves instead."

Naturally, Tang Wulin, Gu Yuena, and Snow Empress paid no heed to Huo Yun'er's warning.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao insistently brought half the flatbread to his mother's mouth while eating the remaining half himself.

"I already ate my fill outside, so I can't finish a whole flatbread. Mom, please eat this half."

Seeing how determined Huo Yuhao was, Huo Yun'er could only helplessly finish the half he gave her. By then, Huo Yuhao had also finished his own half.

Not long afterward, Dai Huabin arrived at the entrance of Huo Yuhao's shabby little house with his mother.

"Seize these ignorant commoners!"

At the order of the duchess—Zhu Xuyun—five Soul Kings, two Soul Emperors, and one Soul Saint-level soul master soldier surrounded Huo Yuhao and the others in an instant.

Tang Wulin sneered. "People like you are utterly ridiculous. You think being in a high position means you can do whatever you please."

Eight dragon-shaped streams of air suddenly rose from beneath Tang Wulin's feet and blasted toward the eight soldiers surrounding them.

Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth!

The soul master soldiers each used soul skills to block the attack, their faces filled with disdain.

What kind of ability could a six-year-old brat possibly have?

Yet in the very next instant, every one of them was brutally slapped in the face by reality.

The imposing dragon-shaped streams of air automatically locked onto their movements and effortlessly hurled them all toward the crumbling wall. The wall immediately collapsed with a thunderous crash from the impact.

Immediately afterward, Snow Empress froze all eight of them into ice sculptures in an instant, leaving them unable to move.

Huo Yun'er said helplessly and heartbrokenly, "My wall..."

Huo Yuhao replied calmly, "Let it be torn down. This wasn't a place for people to live in anyway. Mom, let's leave the duke's residence."

"But what about our source of income..."

Before Huo Yun'er could finish, Tang Wulin confidently pointed his thumb at himself. "I can forge iron, and Yuhao can open a grilled fish stall."

Snow Empress added, "Na'er and I can make ice cream together too. We won't have to worry about earning a living."

Seeing that Huo Yun'er still felt attached to the duke's residence, Huo Yuhao understood that she still held hopes and longing for Dai Hao. He comforted her:

"The war is intense right now. He won't care about us. Mom, listen to me for now. We can come back after the war ends."

After Huo Yuhao's persuasion, Huo Yun'er could only reluctantly agree to his plan in the end.

The duchess—Zhu Xuyun—immediately roared, "You can't leave!"

Huo Yuhao's gaze turned cold. "Get lost!"

Tang Wulin understood at once. He threw a fierce punch, mercilessly sending Zhu Xuyun flying several meters away.

Dai Huabin gritted his teeth as he helped his mother up, glaring viciously at Huo Yuhao.

"Huo Yuhao, one day, I will crush you beneath my feet! I'll make you kneel and beg me for mercy!"

"You? That's nothing but a fool's dream."

Gu Yuena used the space element to appear before Dai Huabin in an instant. With only a light palm strike, she sent him flying straight through several large trees.

Huo Yuhao left the White Tiger Duke's Residence with Huo Yun'er, Tang Wulin, Gu Yuena, and Snow Empress, his expression indifferent. He did not care in the slightest about how Zhu Xuyun went about searching for Dai Huabin afterward.

Star Dou Great Forest Core Area.

Huo Yun'er had worried all along about the danger of the journey, but as they traveled deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest, she discovered in shock that their path had been completely unobstructed.

The Star Dou Great Forest's several great ferocious beasts, along with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, had been waiting here for a long time. However, they were all in human form at the moment.

"We're here. This is my home, and they're all my family and friends."

Gu Yuena stopped and introduced them to everyone.

Looking at the beautiful Lake of Life, Huo Yun'er immediately showed a shocked expression. "You actually live in the forest? Aren't you afraid soul beasts might suddenly attack you?"

Bear Lord, broad-shouldered and powerfully built, chuckled at her words. "There are no soul beasts in this forest that can defeat us. Just relax and settle down here."

Bi Ji wore a lush green dress, and she was carefully examining Huo Yun'er's physical condition.
