Chapter 211 Gu Yuena, who had been holding back for two months
The Star Dou Great Forest, the oldest forest on the Douluo Continent, has nurtured countless rare soul beasts and hides countless secrets.
The Lake of Life is the very place Huo Yuhao chose to resurrect the Blue Silver Emperor. It is one of the world's three great treasure basins, its value and importance no less than that of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. The area around the Lake of Life is permeated with rich life force, as if every drop of water contains endless vitality. This is not only Gu Yuena's territory, but also a secluded paradise, far removed from the disturbances of the outside world and the battles among Soul Masters. Here, Huo Yuhao can peacefully carry out his resurrection ritual without worrying about being disturbed or discovered by other Soul Masters.
It had been almost two months since Huo Yuhao left the Star Dou Great Forest. He couldn't help but feel uneasy, after all, he hadn't visited Gu Yuena for two months. Huo Yuhao knew Gu Yuena's temper and personality all too well, which made him worry about what kind of "treatment" he would receive upon his return, and whether Gu Yuena would simply "drain him dry."
However, Huo Yuhao's steps did not falter; he resolutely marched towards the Lake of Life. Soon, the familiar lakeside scenery came into view—the clear water, the familiar scent—all felt incredibly welcoming. Several soul beasts were quietly drinking water by the Lake of Life. They seemed unsurprised by Huo Yuhao's arrival, simply watching him silently. Huo Yuhao's gaze swept over the soul beasts, and he recognized several familiar faces among them.
Lying by the lake drinking water was the Titan Ape he had fought before. However, at this moment, the Titan Ape looked at Huo Yuhao with fear in its eyes. Under the sunlight, the lake shimmered, reflecting the Titan Ape's massive body, which was over ten meters tall. Its once powerful limbs now seemed weak, its legs trembling as it knelt shakily before Huo Yuhao, murmuring, "Greetings, My Lord..."
Huo Yuhao "..."
At this moment, Huo Yuhao understood perfectly well what had happened; Gu Yuena must have sent someone to warn the Titan Giant Ape. Speaking of which...
And that is indeed the case. The story goes back a few months. Last time, the Titan Giant Ape and Huo Yuhao fought. It was thought to be just an ordinary battle.
Unexpectedly, after the Titan Ape returned, the Beast God Di Tian personally intervened and beat up both the Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python. Di Tian's majesty and power instilled immense fear in the two soul beasts. Afterwards, Di Tian told the two soul beasts that Huo Yuhao was their soul beast lord, and their master's husband.
Upon hearing this news, the Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python were nearly scared out of their wits. The Titan Ape, in particular, immediately knelt down in fear. Its heart was filled with terror and regret, regretting why it had ever fought Huo Yuhao in the first place.
The Titan Apes were about to flee for their lives, but Di Tian's imposing presence prevented them from making any rash moves. Fortunately, Di Tian told the Titan Apes that Huo Yuhao wouldn't hold it against them, and only then did the Titan Apes put down their packed luggage.
However, after that, the Titan Ape became noticeably more introverted, a single act of initiative resulting in a lifetime of introversion.
Upon seeing Huo Yuhao again today, the Titan Ape's survival instinct immediately kicked in. Its heart was filled with fear, terrified that Huo Yuhao would punish it for what happened last time.
At the same time, the Azure Bull Python also emerged from the Lake of Life, its gaze also filled with fear as it looked at Huo Yuhao. The Azure Bull Python was even larger than the Titan Ape, but at this moment it appeared unusually docile.
Huo Yuhao ignored them. Since they were willing to kneel, let them kneel. Huo Yuhao turned and left, leaving the two soul beasts trembling by the lake.
Huo Yuhao stood by the lake, bathed in the morning sunlight. His gaze pierced through the thin mist, looking out over the water. The lake shimmered, as if countless jewels were leaping on its surface. Golden sunlight spilled across the lake, the shimmering light and ripples creating a breathtaking scene.
Looking out from the lakeside, one can clearly see that the area around the Lake of Life is densely covered with medicinal herbs exuding spiritual energy.
Bathed in sunlight, these herbs emitted a faint glow, as if veiled in mystery. The surrounding life force caused the leaves of the Blue Silver Emperor to tremble slightly, as if telling Huo Yuhao of their joy. At that moment, ripples spread through the surrounding space, like the surface of a lake being gently stirred by invisible fingers.
First, a small, white foot, as white as jade, stretched out, its crystal-clear toes gently stepping on the grass, as if it were nature's most exquisite work of art.
Next came her ivory-like calves, a pair of long, fair, and delicate legs that were faintly visible beneath the gauze dress. Gu Yuena's figure emerged from the spatial fluctuations, her beautiful eyes looking at Huo Yuhao with a hint of resentment: "It's been two whole months, you haven't come to see me for two whole months."
Huo Yuhao moved closer to Gu Yuena, his eyes filled with apology and deep affection. He didn't speak, but reached out and hugged Gu Yuena tightly: "Well, here I am. I've missed you so much these past two months, but I really haven't been able to get away."
During this period, Huo Yuhao could be said to have compressed his time to the extreme, completing in two months what would normally take a year. His schedule was packed full, from morning till night, from night till dawn, he hardly had a moment to rest. To be honest, Huo Yuhao didn't have a single free day in the past two months.
Fortunately, wherever he went, his girlfriend Gu Yuena was with him. Although he was physically exhausted, he found comfort in her presence.
Moreover, everything Huo Yuhao did was beneficial to the entire Douluo Continent, which earned him positive feedback.
Huo Yuhao's thoughts drifted back to some other things.
In this cruel world, Huo Yuhao knew all too well the lives of ordinary people. They worked hard day after day, from dawn till dusk, but could only earn meager wages.
Most people's lives seem to be driven by relentless gears, endless labor and perpetual loneliness, especially for those who don't even have someone to share their lives with. They have no girlfriends, no warm embraces, no one to confide in.
In this world, people's lives are full of hardships, and they struggle to survive every day.
The vast majority of ordinary people also suffer from the oppression of nobles. It was because he experienced such a life that Huo Yuhao knew the suffering of the lower classes.
