Chapter 223 Huo Yuhao: I've been exposed?!
Huo Yuhao, who thought he had discovered the truth of the matter, shook his head: "If I wanted to report it to the Federation, I wouldn't have asked you. Besides, it's not a big deal."
"I don't have that much malice towards soul beasts, especially since you only have the bloodline of a soul beast."
Having traveled through two worlds, Huo Yuhao didn't feel much of a sense of belonging to the Federation ten thousand years later.
Those so-called countries and regimes were nothing but fleeting clouds to him.
After leaving the White Tiger Duke's mansion, Huo Yuhao felt like a wanderer.
But if asked where Huo Yuhao's "home" is, he would probably answer without hesitation, "the Spirit Pagoda".
Ten thousand years later, the Spirit Pagoda had two teachers, Leng Yaozhu and Han Tianyi, who gave him warmth and direction.
Ten thousand years ago, Huo Yuhao also prepared to establish the Spirit Pagoda.
But this time he will lead the Spirit Pagoda down a different path, a path different from the original history.
This requires the support of soul beasts, so his statement that he doesn't have much malice towards soul beasts is genuine.
Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Gu Yue's cold expression gradually softened.
She looked at Huo Yuhao and couldn't help but ask, "So, what do you think of the relationship between humans and soul beasts now?"
Huo Yuhao replied, "With the development of the Spirit Pagoda, the living space of soul beasts has been squeezed, and many soul beasts on land have become extinct, which contradicts the original intention of the Spirit Pagoda."
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Gu Yue's eyes.
She hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to have such a viewpoint.
In her understanding, all humans consider the Spirit Pagoda to be great, progressive, and beneficial to all of humanity.
Few people think about what the development of the Spirit Pagoda has brought to the soul beasts.
When the Spirit Pagoda was established, Di Tian consulted her, so she naturally knew what he had said back then.
At that time, Di Tian represented the Soul Beast race and was an ally of the Spirit Pagoda.
Now, not only have the ferocious beasts like Di Tian been kicked out of the Spirit Pagoda, but the Star Dou Great Forest is also on the verge of destruction.
Gu Yue sighed, a complex emotion flashing in her purple eyes: "The Spirit Pagoda is making great efforts to develop artificial soul spirits, and now it can produce soul spirits under 30,000 years old."
Her voice carried a hint of heaviness: "Perhaps in the near future, even souls that are 100,000 years old can be artificially created. At that time, I'm afraid there will be no point in the existence of soul beasts."
Huo Yuhao thought that Gu Yue was worried about the future of the soul beast race because she possessed the bloodline of a soul beast.
He then spoke up, saying, "Artificial souls can never compare to real souls, and the soul beast race is not so easily wiped out."
As he said this, Huo Yuhao kept observing Gu Yue's expression.
He now knows that there are gods in the Star Dou realm, but he doesn't understand why that "master" has not taken action all these years, allowing humans to "bully" the soul beast race.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yue's somewhat unfocused expression in her purple eyes instantly hardened.
She said, "That's right, those ferocious beasts in Star Dou are not easy to deal with, otherwise the Spirit Pagoda wouldn't have kept the core area of Star Dou in existence."
Sensing that Gu Yue seemed confident when she said those words, Huo Yuhao deduced that she must know about the existence of that "master".
Humans are indeed oppressing the soul beast race too much right now. Huo Yuhao and Leng Yaozhu have discussed it and decided that it's best not to provoke the soul beast race.
The fact that the deity is not taking action now does not mean she will never take action.
If humanity goes too far, and if the soul beast race truly reaches the brink of life and death, then that "master" will probably no longer remain silent.
At that time, it would be a disaster for the entire human race on the continent, something they simply could not afford.
Huo Yuhao felt that his words might be able to be conveyed to that deity through Gu Yue.
So he continued, "The Spirit Pagoda has been passed down for ten thousand years and has many internal factions. My teacher's lineage has no ill intentions towards soul beasts."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yue remembered the purpose of her transformation into human form to enter the Spirit Pagoda.
She looked at Huo Yuhao, and suddenly smiled on his delicate face.
"Once we grow stronger and take control of the Spirit Pagoda, we can change the current situation!"
Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Yes, we can definitely do it."
Gu Yue looked at Huo Yuhao, a sly glint suddenly flashing in her purple eyes: "Now that you know my secret, shouldn't you tell me yours too?"
"My secret?"
Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
He asked, "What secret do I have?"
Gu Yue snorted and counted on her fingers, one by one: "Your name is Huo Yuhao, your martial soul is the Spirit Eye, and your spiritual power is far stronger than that of ordinary soul masters. Even spiritual soul masters are far inferior to you."
Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat. Had his identity been discovered?
However, he naturally wouldn't admit it at this moment. He stubbornly retorted, "This proves I'm a genius! What are you trying to say?"
Gu Yue chuckled, a hint of smugness in his voice: "Others may not know, but I can sense that you have another martial soul within you."
As she spoke, she stepped forward, her delicate and pretty face almost touching Huo Yuhao's.
The two were so close they could feel each other's breath, so close they could see themselves reflected in each other's eyes.
Gu Yue's warm breath brushed against Huo Yuhao's face, carrying a faint fragrance.
At this moment, Gu Yue chuckled: "That martial soul is ice-attribute, the ultimate ice!"
Huo Yuhao took a step back, his breathing slightly rapid.
He thought to himself, "I shouldn't have given myself away."
Did Gu Yue really discover her true identity?
Huo Yuhao frowned at Gu Yue and asked, "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Gu Yue's expression turned serious. The cunning in his purple eyes faded, replaced by a serious and solemn light.
She said, "So, you are a descendant of the Spirit Ice Douluo from ten thousand years ago, right?"
Ok? !
Gu Yue's conclusion surprised Huo Yuhao, a hint of surprise flashing in his bright eyes.
So they didn't discover my true identity. That's good!
The descendant of Lingbing Douluo—this was the identity that Aunt Leng had prepared for him.
That was a pre-arranged explanation between the master and disciple, which could both explain his martial spirit and talent and pave the way for him to take charge of the Spirit Pagoda in the future.
Lingbing Douluo was the founder of the Spirit Pagoda, and it is perfectly legitimate and reasonable for his descendant to return to the Spirit Pagoda.
Huo Yuhao didn't know how Gu Yue knew about his second martial soul, but since she had such a guess, he might as well continue to say so.
Anyway, this identity will be made public sooner or later.
His expression calmed down, and he said, "That's right, I am a descendant of Lingbing Douluo."
Then a hint of curiosity flashed in his bright eyes: "How did you know about my second martial soul?"
Gu Yue's eyes flashed: "You know about my martial soul. I have a keen sense of elemental perception. Although you hid it well, you still couldn't escape my senses!"
Huo Yuhao nodded to himself; that reason was indeed valid.
Gu Yue's martial soul is elemental control, and his perception of elements is indeed far beyond that of ordinary people.
Extreme ice is also an element, so it's not impossible that she could sense it.
He didn't pursue the matter further, but simply smiled at Gu Yue: "Now, we can say that we know each other's secrets."
"Um!"
Gu Yue nodded and smiled, "Then we must keep each other's secrets!"
