Chapter 9 Electrolux with the Script in Hand
Chapter 9 Electrolux with the Script in Hand
Having finally found someone to confide in, Baili Du no longer needed to pretend to be strong and had a good cry in front of his mentor, Electrolux.
Back in the Douluo God Realm, he was the pillar of his family, and apart from occasionally being able to talk to his mother, he had no one he could trust.
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing claimed that their old ancestor lived together in a lively atmosphere, but in reality, they were sent by Tang San to keep an eye on him.
Two children? Don't let the younger generation worry about things that belong to the older generation...
Was he going to cry to Dai Hao about his sorrow? That bastard Dai Hao was practically Tang San's lackey. No matter what conflict he had with Tang San, even if he wasn't at fault at all, he still made him apologize and kneel down to Tang San...
As for Tang Wutong... it would be better if she didn't exist... Although Master Rong Nianbing was on his side, even an upright official can't settle family disputes, so he couldn't say much.
Electrolux did not interrupt or blame Baili Du, because he knew that his apprentice had done his best.
But in his heart, Tang San was already on his kill list.
They bullied his disciple like this, and even tried to harm him. Did they really think he was some kind of good-natured necromancer?
After Baili Du finished crying, the two of them casually sat down in Xiao Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.
"To put it simply, Yuhao, do you hope that your master will help you cultivate another version of yourself to achieve godhood?"
Baili Du nodded seriously: "That's right, but there's still a slight difference. This time, I absolutely don't want this version of myself to live like a dog of the Tang family again. When I encounter Tang Wutong, I'll trouble you, Teacher, to intervene and stop Tang San's spiritual interference. If necessary, you can take forceful measures! In short, I don't want this version of myself to have any relationship with Tang Wutong that goes beyond that of strangers!"
Electrolux nodded silently, but then sighed wistfully, "...So, in the end, you also fell out with your lover?"
"Really? Could it be that you, teacher..." Baili Du was startled. After all, he had only spent a short time with Electrolux before Tang San secretly killed him at the Clear Sky Sect, and he rarely mentioned Electrolux's past.
Electrox gazed intently at the sky within the Sea of Spirit: "My recuperation these past few days has brought back many memories, so let me tell you about them."
Then, Electrox briefly recounted his experiences on the Holy Demon Continent to Bailidu, including the betrayal by the woman named Flor...
Electrolux is quite philosophical about it; after all, so many years have passed, and he has long since let it go.
Baili Du said with a somber laugh, "We two are quite alike, truly worthy of being master and disciple..."
He and Tang Wutong were forced into a marriage by Tang San. Although they eventually got married and had children, all sorts of conflicts resurfaced after Tang San's death.
Tang Wutong's various unreasonable and domineering behaviors, and her tendency to cause trouble for no reason... Baili Du could tolerate all of these, but what he couldn't stand the most was that Tang Wutong never stood up for him.
Whenever he had a conflict with anyone else in the Tang family, no matter how big or small, Tang Wutong would always make him give in without any limits... If he kept giving in, people who didn't know better would think he wasn't a son-in-law of the Tang family, but just a dog kept by the Tang family.
[A key issue that leads to divorce in real life is this: either the man always listens to his parents, or the woman always sides with her own family.]
Baili Du quickly changed the subject: "Teacher, my injuries are still too severe, and I can't stay on Douluo Continent indefinitely. Now I'll tell you about my plans. Of course, more than completing the plans, I hope I can live happily and joyfully, without being as exhausted as I am now. So I'll trouble you to guide me in doing these things."
Electrolux immediately seized on the key words: "Too badly injured? What happened?"
Baili Du smiled and waved his hand dismissively, "Don't worry, teacher, I know what I'm doing. It's already a miracle that we've made it to this timeline alive, so I won't ask for too much."
Then he revealed his entire plan to Electrolux.
According to his investigation, there are probably a few strangers who were not very familiar with the others who were brought back to life due to the [Reincarnation Hurricane]... Therefore, it is the best choice for Huo Yuhao, who knows nothing, to deal with these people on the Douluo Continent.
This includes how to deal with Tang San's interference and how to deal with Lan Xuanyu, which are the two biggest problems.
Electrolux pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time after hearing this.
After a long pause, he spoke with a complicated expression.
"Yuhao, you... you're using yourself as a pawn too..."
Baili Du's plan was naturally not as abstract and deadly as Tang San's grand plan of ten thousand years. In fact, the one who was hurt the most was himself.
"That's what you call a strategist putting himself in the game and winning by half a move against fate. I'll take that as a compliment."
Then his expression became extremely solemn: "All I hope for is that things are as they should be, and for this hope, I am willing to be a pawn."
Electrolux also became serious, patting Bailidu forcefully on the shoulder: "I won't say anything more, your teacher will stay with you!"
"Okay! Teacher, then let's go to the Star Dou Great Forest to find Brother Tianmeng tomorrow!"
……
After the sun was high in the sky, Huo Yuhao stretched comfortably.
"Um……"
Then a familiar and gentle voice sounded in my ear: "Awake?"
Huo Yuhao, still a little sleepy, immediately woke up and looked at Baili Du sitting by the bed in surprise.
"Uncle Baili!"
Baili Du patted his head and smiled, "Hurry up and wash up. Today I'll take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to get your soul ring."
Little Huo Yuhao immediately jumped out of bed, shouting in surprise, "Huh? Really?!"
He had been holding back his soul power for over a year, and now he could finally become a true soul master. How could he not be excited?
Every Soul Master yearns to become stronger!
Baili Du said calmly, "How's your water and lightning control practice going? If it doesn't meet my standards, I won't take you."
"Hmm..." Little Huo Yuhao scratched his head sheepishly, "I think it should be okay."
Then he stretched out his hands, and swirling water and rapidly moving lightning snakes appeared in his left and right hands respectively. He then brought his hands together towards the center, and the swirling water and lightning merged together, turning into a purplish-black vortex, with streaks of lightning flashing across it from time to time, without any repulsion whatsoever.
Baili Du's eyelids twitched twice. He could control the most violent element, lightning, as smoothly as flowing water... It's simply outrageous that someone his age has such control!
Your spiritual power has already reached the Spirit Sea Realm? That's quite normal.
Why didn't he have this talent before...?
But he still put on a nonchalant expression: "Hmm... it's alright. After you finish eating, tell your mother and I'll take you to get your soul ring."
"Okay!" Little Huo Yuhao jumped off the bed and dashed into the bathroom.
Watching the child's cheerful figure, even he couldn't help but smile.
I really wish he could stay happy forever...
