In his previous life, Huo Yuhao had never wondered why Tang Wutong had been so eager to return to the Divine Realm in the days before his ascension-in other words, why she had led him there.
Now, looking back, Huo Yuhao suddenly realized that, on the Douluo Star of this era, the Tang Family's original plans to condense a second life core-the Golden Tree-in the former Douluo Continent region had proceeded in tandem with their plans in Sun Moon.
