The ancestor was a God King?

The high-ranking members of the Spirit Pagoda watched the Soul Suppressing Douluo, some lost in thought, others completely bewildered.

"Your Soul Suppressing Crown, this is...?"

The Fist Emperor Douluo of doubts.

"She's probably having a headache over her daughter's situation," Han Tianyi said with a hint of pity in her eyes.

Upon hearing this, the Fist Emperor Douluo instantly understood what was going on.

Zhao Yao, the daughter of the Soul Suppressing Douluo —she is a person of great renown.

"He's so nervous after the ancestor's return; it seems his daughter has caused him a lot of trouble," the Fist Emperor Douluo said meaningfully.

Han Tianyi nodded without replying. Some things are better left unsaid; it's better to keep them to yourself.

After all, this matter involves unofficial Unofficial History of our ancestors, and it is not appropriate to make any rash comments.

The Fist Emperor Douluo also realized this, so he didn't continue.

But why is it so hard to suppress that smile?

In the end, even the Fist Emperor Douluo couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

Seeing this, Han Tianyi shook his head helplessly and changed the subject, "I never expected that person to be the Spirit Ice Ancestor —truly, life is unpredictable."

Hua Yichen, who was passing by, remarked with a sigh, "Actually, there were some clues in the past. When the Snow Empress Pagoda Master suddenly took that person as her disciple, we should have noticed something."

"That's true. I was quite surprised when I first heard that the Snow Empress was taking on disciples, but I just didn't think of it in this way."

Han Tianyi turned her gaze to Hua Yichen.

"However, speaking of this matter, the first place our ancestor went to was the East Sea Spirit Pagoda. Your Venerable Xiaoyao, you spent quite a bit of time with our ancestor, didn't you notice anything else amiss?"

"----"

Why do you have to bring up something so sensitive? Are you asking this just to see me make a fool of myself?

Hua Yichen's lips twitched. He stared at Han Tianyi's expression for a moment, and seeing that he remained calm and did not seem to be intentionally making fun of him, he shook his head helplessly.

"Our ancestors did exhibit many extraordinary qualities, even demonstrating astonishing Soul Tool Technology, but I cannot associate these with people from Ten Thousand Years Ago."

"Indeed, if our ancestors wanted to hide it, it would be difficult for us to discern."

Han Tianyi nodded first, then said sincerely, "We've grown up listening to the legends of our ancestors, and we never imagined that one day we would actually see the Spirit Ice Ancestor in person. Even now, it still feels unreal."

Hua Yichen nodded silently.

He shared this sentiment deeply.

After all, if he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he would have thought it was a story made up by some madman that the genius he had discovered was his own ancestor.

Han Tianyi glanced at the Spirit Pagoda behind him, her eyes filled with emotion, and said, "Historical records have overly mythologized Spirit Ice Ancestor, almost like a saint, making him seem somewhat unreal. Meeting him today, I know he was loyal, righteous, and upright, which is far more admirable than those rigid accounts."

"It's not overly mythical; I think many of the accounts are quite true."

At this moment, the Fist Emperor Douluo glanced around and whispered, "Look, our ancestor only revealed his identity and officially took back the position of Tower Master after recovering his God Rank. This shows that our ancestor is just as steady and reliable as recorded in history—isn't this exactly the style of the Spirit Ice Ancestor in historical records?"

Han Tianyi was taken aback, then nodded.

He emerged only after reaching his peak, mobilized ten of his Limit to annihilate the Holy Spirit Cult, and even placed a restriction on everyone before the meeting ended, completely preventing any possibility of information leaks, such as those concerning Gu Yuena.

This cautious style is exactly the same as the way of doing things recorded in history as the Spirit Ice Ancestor.

Our ancestors were truly masters of the Way of Steadfastness.

Although their descendants were also well-versed in this art, they clearly hadn't grasped its essence.

Speaking of Huo Yuhao's cautious style, King of Fighters Douluo also thought of the restrictions Huo Yuhao had placed on them, and stroked his chin, saying, "Speaking of which, our ancestor concealed Gu Yuena's identity so well, I wonder what he thinks about his own identity? Does he need to continue to hide it?"

Han Tianyi shook his head and continued, "Since our ancestor chose to openly reveal his identity at the meeting and did not impose any restrictions on our discussion, he obviously does not intend to continue to conceal it. Moreover, the handover of the position of Tower Master could not be kept secret in the first place—however, whether to publicize it widely is up to our ancestor's own decision. We should not do anything unnecessary."

Without their ancestors appearing in person, the people who spread these messages were at most skeptical.

After all, the Fire God is something like the Spirit Ice Douluo —it's somewhat dramatic.

The Fist Emperor Douluo laughed heartily, "I'm really looking forward to seeing how those little guys react. When they find out that Spirit Ice Ancestor has really returned, they'll probably be absolutely stunned!"

"Ahem." Hua Yichen suddenly coughed twice, looking in a certain direction, interrupting their conversation.

Han Tianyi and the Fist Emperor Douluo stopped talking and followed his gaze to see Ji Xuanqiu standing beside Ji Juechen, looking respectful and bowing slightly as he spoke. The Sword Fanatic ancestor from Ten Thousand Years Ago remained expressionless, only nodding occasionally, his steps steady, like a sharp blade sheathed.

But they could feel that fighting spirit even from a great distance.

"Uh... Ancestor Sword Fanatic, are you going to the Ji Clan for a sword duel?" Hua Yichen clicked his tongue. "That does fit the style of the Ji Clan and this ancestor."

The Fist Emperor Douluo silently watched Ji Juechen leave, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

Noticing this, Han Tianyi joked, "You didn't have a chance at the meeting before, but now that you've met your idol from your youth, are you sure you don't want to ask him for advice?"

The Fist Emperor Douluo glared at him irritably, but didn't refute the fact that Ji Juechen was his idol.

Beyond the Spirit Pagoda, Ji Juechen was more of an early member of the Spirit Pagoda, a historical figure.

But inside the Spirit Pagoda, Sword Fanatic Douluo is an idol and role model for countless Soul Masters. After all, the fact that someone with only level three Innate Soul Power managed to reach the level of a level Level 97 Super Douluo is inspiring enough in itself.

As for the legend of Sea God Tang San, using Blue Silver Grass to defeat his Trash Martial Soul —his Martial Soul was the Blue Silver Emperor, and that has already been debunked.

In this era, only the Fierce Wolf Douluo Dong Zi'an can be considered a model of a comeback – he cultivated to the level of Limit Douluo with an ordinary Martial Soul, the Green-Faced Wolf, and can be compared with their ancestor.

"I want to follow them and see what's going on."

After a moment of silence, the Fist Emperor Douluo spoke.

"I'm also quite interested in our ancestor's Sword Dao. Let's go take a look together." This time, Han Tianyi didn't tease him.

The two greeted Hua Yichen and then set off in the direction Ji Juechen and Ji Xuanqiu had gone. Hua Yichen stood there, watching the three figures disappear into the night, shook his head, and then turned and left as well.

He was also among the expedition members and needed to make arrangements for all matters related to the East Sea Spirit Pagoda in advance.

"Old Ji has finally lost his temper."

In the upper conference room of the Spirit Pagoda, Huo Yuhao stood by the window, watching Ji Juechen and Ji Xuanqiu leave side by side, a helpless smile on his face.

However, Ji Juechen had been cooped up in the Extreme North for a while and was getting restless. Now that he had encountered a Sword Dao of the Limit, it was understandable that he was eager to try his luck.

Huo Yuhao shook his head helplessly and turned to look at the conference table behind him.

After all the high-ranking officials left, only he, Gu Yuena, Snow Empress, Di Tian, Qian Gu Dong Feng, and Qian Gu Die Ting remained in the conference hall.

--

They still have some matters to discuss.

Seeing Huo Yuhao looking over, Di Tian asked, "We've come out in full force; what if the Titan Giant Ape and the others take advantage of the situation and attack?"

With all of their God Rank experts gone, the Federation is now somewhat vulnerable.

Although the Titan Giant Ape and their allies are unlikely to make a move at this time, it's still best to be on guard.

After all, they didn't know exactly what preparations the other side would make for their Ten Thousand Year Plan. If there were any actions that were detrimental to them, then the time they left would be the best time for the other side to make their move.

Moreover, there's also the issue of Tang Wulin—

"Don't worry."

Huo Yuhao glanced at Su Tong, Ye Guyi, and the direction Ji Juechen had gone, "I left a backup plan with Su Tong and the others. If necessary, we can instantly return to Mingdu. Moreover—"

His Divine Consciousness swept over a certain spot in the Spirit Pagoda, Power of Space around him surged, causing a Gate of Space to open out of thin air. On the other side of the gate was a phantom figure who was in a daze.

Looking at that figure, Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Moreover, Her Excellencies Ning Rongrong and Oscar have already agreed to join us—I'm sure Tang Wutong will also be willing to help us in any way she can."

This is precisely: using the Oscar to manipulate Tang Wutong.

Upon seeing that figure, Qian Gu Dong Feng and Qian Gu Die Ting exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock.

Yet another deity. This world is becoming increasingly unfamiliar.

They all recognized that the other side of the spatial passage was Divine Consciousness Clone, and judging from their ancestor's words—was this Divine Consciousness the Butterfly God from Ten Thousand Years Ago? When did their ancestor bring this person to the Spirit Pagoda?

And then there's Ning Rongrong and Oscar —aren't they deities who ascended to Sea God with the Sea God 20,000 years ago? Why do they sound like they're related to the Butterfly God?

And why do they all seem to have joined the ancestor's camp?

Our ancestor was one of the key figures in the destruction of Shrek; these gods shouldn't be on friendly terms with him.

The two were filled with confusion, but even more so with amazement.

The fact that our ancestor was able to gather so many gods from Shrek to his side clearly shows that he was a figure with immense influence and power among the Gods Divine Realm.

I just don't know what our ancestors' status was in the Divine Realm.

"

On the other side of the spatial passage, Tang Wutong heard Huo Yuhao's words and remained silent for a moment. She walked out of the spatial passage.

"You, a dignified God King, need my help with things?"

She was unaware of the background; she only heard Huo Yuhao ask her for help. But this man, a reincarnated God King possessing Super Divine Tool, needed the assistance of a mere Divine Consciousness Clone? Was this some kind of joke?

Qian Gu Dong Feng's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Huo Yuhao's gaze with horror. "Spirit Ice Ancestor, you—you are the God King?"

According to various records, the God King is the most supreme being in the Divine Realm and the true ruler of the Divine Realm.

No wonder our ancestor was able to gather so many deities around him. It turns out that he himself was at the pinnacle of the Divine Realm, the superior of many deities, and a true being standing at the top of the pyramid.

At this moment, Qian Gu Dong Feng felt he had gained some insight, and his gaze toward Huo Yuhao became even more awe-inspiring.

Not only Qian Gu Dong Feng, but also Qian Gu Die Ting beside him was in turmoil. He looked at Huo Yuhao as if he were looking up to a god, even though the person in front of him was a god himself.

Spirit Ice Ancestor was actually a God King!

The foundation of their Spirit Pagoda is not just evergreen, it's practically unshakeable!

Perhaps these descendants will be blessed with good fortune and become gods on the spot.

Huo Yuhao:

Can I say it's a misunderstanding?

Besides, Su Tong, you know the truth, so why are you meddling in this mess?

Seeing Su Tong looking at him with the same admiring and shocked expression as Qian Gu Dong Feng and the others, Huo Yuhao's eye twitched, feeling rather speechless.

Just then, Tang Wutong's puzzled voice rang out. "Spirit Ice Ancestor?"

She looked at Qian Gu Dong Feng, who called Huo Yuhao "Spirit Ice Ancestor," and then at Huo Yuhao, her mind a jumble of thoughts.

What's going on? Isn't this the Otherworldly God King? Why Spirit Pagoda?

Moreover, he is also known as the "Spirit Ice Ancestor," could it be that—

Faced with Tang Wutong's surprised gaze, Huo Yuhao temporarily ignored Qian Gu Dong Feng and Su Tong, nodded, and said with a faint smile, "As you think, we were indeed from the same era, and I have even met you."

Upon receiving confirmation from Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong was completely stunned.

She never imagined that this Otherworldly God King wielding Super Divine Tool was actually the Spirit Ice Douluo who founded the Spirit Pagoda and created the Soul Spirit System Ten Thousand Years Ago.

Of course, Tang Wutong wasn't too shocked by the fact that "Huo Yuhao is the Spirit Ice Douluo," since she wasn't a member of the Spirit Pagoda and wasn't familiar with the Spirit Ice Douluo.

This event was far less shocking than the fact that Huo Yuhao was God King and had lived in the same era as her.

Indeed, Tang Wutong still believed that Huo Yuhao was a reincarnated God King. However, in her eyes, this God King may have arrived in the Douluo Plane earlier than she had imagined.

After all, there are only a handful of Super Divine Tool in the Divine Realm, and she knows their whereabouts almost all of them. As for the one on Huo Yuhao's side, she really doesn't know, so it can only be an outsider.

"You... you actually reincarnated into the Douluo Plane Ten Thousand Years Ago? How did you manage to evade the Divine Realm's surveillance?" Tang Wutong looked completely bewildered. "And I have absolutely no recollection of when we met."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao instantly understood that the other party must be treating him like the Gu Yuena of the past, as if he were a reincarnation of Otherworldly God King from another world, wandering the mortal realm, without ever considering that he was not God King.

Yes, I'm sitting at the same table as Teacher Da Ye.

Huo Yuhao glanced at his girlfriend with a slightly nostalgic and teasing look before turning to Tang Wutong and smiling, "The first time I saw you was in the audience, when I saw you being beaten to the ground by a Soul Master from another academy."

Tang Wutong's face instantly darkened. "----You have a really good memory."

So you're judging her based on her past scandals, huh?

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, but stopped joking. "We seem to have gone off-topic. As you guessed, what I just said was just a joke. I didn't actually assign you anything. I called you here simply to ask for your opinion."

"You know we have an adversarial relationship with your two fathers. If this continues—"

Huo Yuhao's voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable chill. "Then we can only send them to Reincarnation."

Tang Wutong's pupils suddenly contracted.

"But----"

Huo Yuhao changed the subject, "Right now, we don't have a life-or-death feud with them. It's more of a clash of positions between us. If you can persuade them, I can refrain from attacking them."

He has always been clear about his grudges and favors. In the original story, he would not hold the grudges between Huo Yuhao and Tang San against himself and Tang San.

His personal grudge against Tang San was more about obstructing his path, and this matter did not involve other people, so he would not hold a grudge against anyone else.

Leaving aside Tang San, Da Ming and Er Ming didn't really have any major grudges against him—after all, in their several encounters, it was always the other side who suffered losses.

Of course, Tang Hao Ah Yin are a different story.

The consciousness of the Douluo Plane had done him a great favor, and he would show no mercy to those who had usurped the power of the plane.

Tang Wutong took a deep breath. "I understand. Thank you for giving me this opportunity. I will find a chance to persuade them."

At this point, she asked in confusion, "But I don't understand, why did you give me and my eldest and second uncles this opportunity?"
