Chapter 23: Gu Yue Na: Huo Yuhao Is Not Human (Certainty)

~8 min read 1,548 words

The Donghai Spirit Pagoda Airport's spacious, bright waiting hall resembled a modern palace; the marble floor reflected people's hurried footsteps and the shadows of their rolling luggage.

Hua Yichen and Huo Yuhao stood at the edge; seeing a soul guidance aircraft land, the former said:

"Let's go, go welcome that young miss from Headquarters."

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao looked at the silver-haired figure descending from the aircraft and stepped forward.

He hadn't expected she would come to study in Donghai... it actually saved him a lot of trouble.

Gu Yue Na stepped off the aircraft and immediately noticed two figures walking toward her; her gaze met Huo Yuhao's, her movement paused for a moment, and thinking of recent years' life, her eyes flickered slightly.

All of this was brought by the other party.

……

"Miss Gu Yuena, welcome to the Donghai Branch. I am the Tower Master of the Donghai Branch — Hua Yichen."

Upon meeting, Hua Yichen smiled and nodded at Gu Yue Na.

"Long admired your great name, Adaptability His Excellency."

Gu Yue Na gave a slight bow, greeted politely, then looked at Huo Yuhao beside her and, without any strangeness, extended her right hand, "Hello, I am Gu Yue Na."

"Huo Yuhao."

Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly; smiling, he extended his palm and lightly clasped that pure, clean palm for an instant.

In that instant, Huo Yuhao perceived his soul power being forced to circulate, and the surrounding air seemed to turn chilly.

Ice Element Control!

'Truly a blunt probe; coming to study at Donghai Academy this time was to confirm my identity, right?' Huo Yuhao showed no change in expression.

Twin Martial Souls and ordinary Soul Masters have a significant difference; the key is that when a Twin Martial Soul Soul Master switches martial souls, their own soul power rapidly fuses with the new martial soul, and the soul power attribute also changes.

And recently, in order to attempt a Self-Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Huo Yuhao had been switching between the two martial souls; currently it was the Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul, and the soul power attribute was Ice.

And what is the Silver Dragon King?

She is a god; what "Elemental Master" martial soul? All elements she controls, by human understanding, are above Extreme!

Even if her strength is gone, the Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul before her still has no meaning whatsoever; it can only be suppressed.

His soul power carrying the Ultimate Ice attribute was influenced by the other party the moment their palms clasped; the person before him could be called the natural enemy of all Elemental Soul Masters.

The Spiritual Sea had already exploded into an uproar; Tianmeng said in disbelief:

"How come she is like this? Why can she suppress Yuhao's Ultimate Ice? How could such a Soul Master appear among humans!"

The Ice Empress likewise could not calm down; fortunately she still had rationality, and looked at the only person present who might know the truth, "I Lao, she is?"

Electrolux said solemnly: "He is not human, he is a god! Yuhao, you..."

Huo Yuhao's tone was very calm, "I Lao, no need to worry; she has taken human form and her strength is gone, it is merely attribute suppression, I have a countermeasure for her."

In this era, there is no God Realm above; there are only a few god-level existences. Most of them still have restrictions and find it difficult to exert full power.

Only the Silver Dragon King, although she sealed her strength after taking human form, is still the one with the least restrictions on action; if necessary, it seems she can even bring out considerably powerful strength.

How to deal with her naturally needs priority consideration; pinning hopes on the fact that I gave soul beasts a chance to survive so she won't act against me is the most foolish thought.

Ten thousand years have passed; Huo Yuhao has had too long a time to think. Even using exhaustive enumeration, he can derive countermeasures for various crises.

Like the current situation.

Divine Throne, it's time for you to pay some rent!

Through contact, Gu Yue Na discovered Huo Yuhao possessed Ultimate Ice attribute soul power, confirming Huo Yuhao's identity, but instead frowned slightly.

Humans cannot possibly live past ten thousand years, let alone accomplish this kind of thing similar to re-cultivation; what exactly is Huo Yuhao's situation? He lived through ten thousand years to arrive in this era, and for what purpose?

She had the thought to probe further, but thinking of Huo Yuhao's recreation grace toward soul beasts, Gu Yue Na still did not continue.

The future is long; afterwards she will understand eventually; confirming Huo Yuhao's identity is enough.

Thinking this, Gu Yue Na withdrew her palm, but suddenly felt a wave of mental fluctuation.

'Was he angered by my probe? With Huo Yuhao's disposition, discovering I can suppress Ultimate Martial Souls shouldn't have caused this... hmm? Not an attack?'

Gu Yue Na thought Huo Yuhao was enraged because his soul power lost control, but quickly discovered it was not a mental attack, but... Spiritual Sharing?

Gu Yue Na's purple eyes rippled; boldness from skill, she did not block it.

Even with strength sealed, on the surface her spiritual power is now not higher than Huo Yuhao's, but her essence is there; for the other party to severely injure her is not that easy.

The spiritual connection completed in a turn of an instant, and then... Miss Gu Yuena's originally composed and natural expression vanished, instantly freezing in place.

Huo Yuhao had already withdrawn his palm, smiling at Hua Yichen, "Teacher Hua, Elder Luo should have lunch ready by now; let's take Miss Gu Yuena there."

Hua Yichen looked thoughtfully at Gu Yue Na frozen in place, then glanced at Huo Yuhao's direction, chuckling inwardly and shaking his head.

Rare indeed, to actually see Yuhao counterattack against someone else's provocation.

Just now there was Ice Element aura and spiritual power fluctuation in the air; he naturally sensed them; the Ice Element should be Gu Yue Na's martial soul, the spiritual power naturally Huo Yuhao's.

Is it because of a genius's pride? Losing by a margin on the ranking list, wanting to win back face? But judging by now, it seems he didn't satisfy this young miss's wishes.

Not minding this matter too much, Hua Yichen turned and left, "This way please, Miss Gu Yuena."

Huo Yuhao also nodded at Gu Yue Na, turned, and walked toward the Spirit Pagoda's direction.

Gu Yue Na paused a moment, followed the two, her purple eyes looking at Huo Yuhao's back with slight shock.

That is a Super God Artifact's imprint?

And that kind of Origin Aura is absolutely not an ordinary Super God Artifact!!!

Even she currently only has clues to a Super God Artifact, and does not have one by her side.

Huo Yuhao has a Super God Artifact? Could it be that ten thousand years ago he already became a god? Or a very powerful deity? Only because the God Realm met with disaster, he came to the Douluo Plane?

No, that's wrong.

Just as this possibility arose, Gu Yue Na negated this guess.

Becoming a god creates a huge commotion; even if she was in slumber, with her strength, it is impossible she would be completely unaware.

And if it is not that situation, associating Huo Yuhao's various strange points, Gu Yue Na's gaze became solemn.

"Able to live from ten thousand years ago to now, researching soul spirits and soul spirit contracts — he fundamentally cannot be a mere human. Moreover, some arrays involved in the soul spirit contract are fundamentally not what the Douluo Plane should have. Could he be... a god's reincarnation? Possessing a super god artifact, a first-rank god, or even... a true God King?"

Gu Yue Na possessed the Dragon God's memory, and through constant brain-supplementing, reached a disbelief-inducing conclusion.

But a person with obvious other-world knowledge, also carrying a super god artifact — you say he's an ordinary person? That's absolutely impossible!

Moreover, with Huo Yuhao's ten thousand years of accumulation, whether self-creating a divine position or obtaining a divine inheritance, he was originally above a first-rank god.

He could have such an opportunity yet not seize it, not ascend to godhood, instead staying on the Douluo Continent — this can only explain he has greater ambition... or, the God Realm does not allow him to ascend!

The former explains Huo Yuhao is a first-rank god or above god reincarnation, disdaining that god position.

And the latter... the God Realm would make things difficult for a human? No matter how bad the God Realm is, it wouldn't have fallen to this extent, right?

Then it can only explain Huo Yuhao himself has a problem — he wasn't human from the start! (Huo Yuhao: Who are you scolding?)

Huo Yuhao: My strength all relies on your imagination.

Divine Throne: I said this guy is slippery, not a single stroke of the eight characters written yet and he's already using me to scare the dragon.

Note: Because of Soul Douluo and Title Douluo's various performances, this book sets Gu Yue Na's peak strength as a first-rank god, half-step God King.
