Douluo Dalu: Ice Demon Yuhao

Tang Ya shrugged and said, “Alas, there is nothing I can do. Since I failed the college assessment, I have no choice but to drop out.”
“Tiandou City is my hometown. Where else can I go besides here?”
After saying that, Tang Ya showed a helpless smile.
“You didn’t even pass the academy assessment?” Huo Yuhao was a little surprised. “Does Brother Beibei know?”
He seemed to remember seeing Beibei and Tang Ya walking together before the Soul Fighting Competition. And now the Soul Fighting Competition has just ended not long ago. Does this mean that Tang Ya dropped out of school during the Soul Fighting Competition?
Tang Ya was stunned and said with a smile: “Beibei, of course he knew about it, and he laughed at me for a long time. By the way, Brother Huo, why are you here?”
Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and replied, “Like you, I also dropped out of school.”
“That’s not right. I remember you were from the Xingluo Empire. Why did you come to Tiandou City?” Tang Ya asked in confusion. It seemed that she didn’t know that Huo Yuhao had dropped out of school.
“Well… I came here to see if I can open a branch.” Huo Yuhao made up an excuse.
Tang Ya chuckled: “It’s such a coincidence that we can meet in Tiandou City. Come on, let me show my hospitality as a host.”
Having said that, she enthusiastically took Huo Yuhao to her residence.
Huo Yuhao did not refuse and followed Tang Ya to a small house.
“Hmm… It’s so delicious. Brother Huo, your cooking skills are still so good. I haven’t eaten it for a long time.” Tang Ya ate the grilled fish with a happy face and gave sincere praise.
Huo Yuhao was speechless.
Tang Ya said that he wanted to play the role of host, but the first thing he did when he arrived was to eat his grilled fish.
Huo Yuhao observed Tang Ya’s residence.
This is a small house in a relatively remote area. There is a plaque across the gate with the two big words “Tangmen” written on it.
“Is this the Tang Sect?” Huo Yuhao asked doubtfully.
Such a house is more than enough as a residence, but it is obviously far from enough as the location of a sect.
“Yes, this is the Tang Sect.” Tang Ya sighed and said self-deprecatingly, “How is it? Now that Beibei and the others are not here, I am the only one left in the Tang Sect.”
As she spoke, she winked at Huo Yuhao and said, “Brother Huo, why don’t you join our Tang Sect?”
Huo Yuhao shook his head to refuse.
Tang Ya said helplessly: “Alas, I was thinking about rebuilding the Tang Sect, but unfortunately, it has been almost a month and I haven’t received even one disciple.”
Huo Yuhao smiled and consoled him, “Take your time. Look, didn’t you successfully recruit Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao into the Tang Sect?”
“Tiandou City is not an academy.” Tang Ya sighed again, “The world is so fickle. Ever since my parents passed away, the burden of the Tang Sect has been placed on me. I feel like I can’t hold on any longer.”
Huo Yuhao was speechless.
In his heart, he actually wanted to persuade Tang Ya to give up.
At this time, Tang Ya said again: “But fortunately, I can see you, Brother Huo, again in Tiandou City. Brother Huo, can you do me a favor?”
Huo Yuhao nodded: “Tell me about it.”
Tang Ya took off a bracelet-shaped storage soul guide from her hand and handed it to Huo Yuhao.
“Can you please pass this to Beibei for me when you pass by Shrek City in the future?”
Huo Yuhao took the bracelet and nodded silently.
Although he didn’t want to go back to Shrek Academy, he should still be able to do this kind of easy task.
“Thank you, Brother Huo.” Tang Ya felt a lot more relaxed and said frankly, “Actually, I plan to close the Tang Sect for a while.”
Huo Yuhao asked: “Are you going to give up?”
“I won’t give up easily.” Tang Ya said firmly and helplessly, “It’s a pity that rebuilding the Tang Sect requires a lot of money. Now the Tang Sect has no income. I plan to earn some gold soul coins first, and then come back to rebuild the Tang Sect.”
Huo Yuhao asked again: “What are you going to do?”
Tang Ya smiled and said, “Brother Huo, although I dropped out of the academy, I am still a four-ring soul master after all. I can get a lot of rewards by working in a low-level soul master academy or helping others hunt soul rings.”
Huo Yuhao asked doubtfully: “Sister Xiaoya, if you encounter financial difficulties, you should be able to ask Brother Beibei for help, right?”
Tang Ya shook her head: “How can I be so embarrassed to ask him for it?”
“Brother Huo, I’m really happy to meet you today. It’s getting late. I hope we can meet again.”
Tang Ya finally said goodbye to Huo Yuhao with a smile and walked towards the outside of the city.
Huo Yuhao looked in the direction she left, thoughtfully.
He took out the bracelet that Tang Ya asked him to pass on to Bei Bei. As soon as his soul power was transferred, several items stored in the bracelet appeared in his hand.
Several books on the unique skills of the Tang Sect, several secret books on hidden weapons, and a small bag of gold soul coins.
The more Huo Yuhao looked, the more he felt something was wrong, and his brows gradually furrowed.
Why does it look like a request for help?
Huo Yuhao flashed, simulated the attack, disappeared from the spot, and followed behind Tang Ya.
Tian Meng asked in confusion: “Yuhao, what’s wrong with you?”
Huo Yuhao said calmly, “Which sect would entrust its skills to outsiders? And since she is short of money, why doesn’t she keep these gold soul coins for herself?”
Tang Ya walked out of the city in a daze and came to a forest with lush vegetation.
Her expression was no longer as relaxed and casual as when she was with Huo Yuhao, but was filled with sorrow and resentment, and tears unconsciously welled up in the corners of her eyes.
“That’s great, that’s great. I actually met my junior brother Yuhao in Tiandou City. I hope he can pass on all the unique skills of the Tang Sect to Beibei.”
“Beibei, I’m sorry, I really can’t hold on any longer.”
Tang Ya choked up and talked to herself. Suddenly, the four soul rings behind her flickered, and countless blue-black vines grew out in front of her, entwining other plants.
The plants strangled by the blue-black vines quickly withered and turned into nutrients. At the same time, countless evil auras emanated from her.
Tang Ya’s eyes, which were originally filled with tears, suddenly burst into endless murderous intent. She gritted her teeth and said, “Mom and Dad, wait for me. Xiaoya will kill those people soon and avenge you!”
After a while, the murderous intent on Tang Ya’s body gradually dissipated, and all the plants within ten meters around her had withered and died.
She calmed down a little, and suddenly heard a familiar voice saying, “Sister Xiaoya, Brother Beibei probably doesn’t know about your dropping out of school, right?”
Chapter 162 Evil Soul Master Tang Ya?
“Brother Yuhao?”
Tang Ya stared blankly at Huo Yuhao who appeared out of nowhere, and then asked in a cold voice: “Why are you here?”
Huo Yuhao did not answer, but asked himself: “Sister Xiaoya, the fourth ring cultivation is enough to graduate from the outer school of Shrek Academy. You should not have failed the academy assessment. If you dropped out, I’m afraid you chose to drop out of school voluntarily, right?”
Tang Ya nodded silently.
Huo Yuhao then asked, “Sister Xiaoya, you said before that your parents were killed by spirit beasts, but from what you just said, it seems that’s not the case, right?”
Seeing that she couldn’t hide it any longer, Tang Ya simply said, “Yes, my parents were murdered, and the murderer is in Tiandou City.”
“Five years ago, not only were my parents killed by them, but my Tang Sect’s foundation was also taken away by them. Otherwise, how could my Tang Sect, which had existed for thousands of years, be reduced to a status of being in name only?”
“That’s my home! But now a plaque of the Iron Blood Sect is hung over it. What a humiliation!”
“I just want to seek revenge on them!”
Tang Ya gritted her teeth, her emotions became increasingly difficult to control, her voice became louder and louder, and in the end she was almost shouting hysterically.
After the outburst, Tang Ya wiped the tears from her face, her eyes full of determination and sharpness.
Huo Yuhao was silent for a while. He recalled the Iron Blood Sect he saw on the street that day. He didn’t expect that there was such a blood feud between them and the Tang Sect.
He said, “I heard that the Iron Blood Sect has a Soul Emperor.”
Tang Ya said: “I’m not afraid!”
Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and said, “Tiandou City is the capital of the Tianhun Empire. The Tang Sect’s foundation has been taken away. Will the Tianhun Imperial Family just ignore it?”
Tang Ya smiled bitterly: “How could they care about the fighting between sects? The Iron Blood Sect bribed the city defense army and raided my Tang Sect at night, killing my parents and other Tang Sect disciples. I was the only one who survived by chance.”
“Even my Tang Sect’s former friends have turned a blind eye to the Tang Sect’s current situation. How can the Tianhun Royal Family possibly seek justice for my parents?”
Huo Yuhao remained silent.
Night had fallen, and the forest of withered grass and trees looked extremely eerie.
Tang Ya calmed down and said calmly, “Yuhao, you don’t need to persuade me. I have made up my mind. I just ask you to pass on all my Tang Sect’s unique skills to Bei Bei. I hope he can continue to pass on the Tang Sect.”
“Tomorrow, I will seek revenge on the Iron Blood Sect!”
After saying that, Tang Ya turned and walked away.
Huo Yuhao did not continue to stop her, but observed the withered plants around him in silence for a long time.
Tian Meng asked: “Yuhao, won’t you stop her?”
Huo Yuhao said calmly: “There are two voices in my heart. One voice is against her and hopes that she will not do such a stupid thing.”
“But there was another, louder voice supporting her.”
“With hatred in my heart that is hard to let go, and being treated like this by this unfair world, why must I endure the humiliation and live in disgrace? Even if I have to use all my strength, I will bite off a piece of my enemy’s flesh.”
“If outsiders can’t give me justice, then I should give myself justice.”
Bingdi snorted coldly: “It is quite consistent with your fearless personality.”
Huo Yuhao fell silent.
At this moment, Yin Lex’s voice also sounded in his mind: “Child, I can understand your inner thoughts, but hatred can blind a person’s eyes. I once made a big mistake because of hatred.”
“Mr. Yin, what’s the big mistake?”
Yin Lex said calmly: “I once…”
The calm answer made Huo Yuhao’s heart shrink, and even Tianmeng and Bingdi fell into a daze.
After a long while, Huo Yuhao returned to normal and murmured, “Master Yin, this joke is not funny.”
“This is not a joke.” Yin Lao said calmly, “At that time, the army of undead around me far exceeded one million. This is also the origin of my title of the Holy God of Death and the Scourge of the Undead.”
“Yuhao, revenge is always blind. You can guarantee that you will not vent your anger on innocent people and be careful about how you act, but can others do that?”
Huo Yuhao fell into deep thought again.
Bingdi turned his attention to the withered plants around him and said casually, “This ability is devouring, right?”
