Chapter 440 The Tomb of Night Glow; Rakshasa God: Little one, are you willing to believe your older
Chapter 440 The Tomb of Night Glow; Rakshasa God: Little one, are you willing to believe your older sister?
Seeing Yuanen Yehui's exceptionally bright eyes in the night, with a hint of expectation in them, Huo Yuhao ultimately did not refuse. He simply nodded silently and let her lead him away.
The two followed a secluded path and soon left the Yuanen family's residence, arriving in a remote mountain wilderness.
As far as the eye can see, nameless wildflowers grow in a tangled and intricate way, and under the moonlight, they look like paints of various colors that have been accidentally spilled on the ground, exuding a tenacious and vibrant aura.
The closer Huo Yuhao got to the center of this nameless sea of flowers, the more clearly he could feel that the emotions emanating from Yuanen Yehui were gradually becoming depressed and suppressed.
A guess instantly popped into his mind, causing him to unconsciously tighten his grip on Yuanen Yehui's hand.
But Yuan Enhui suddenly let go of Huo Yuhao's hand and walked quickly ahead on her own, as if she didn't want Huo Yuhao to see her vulnerable expression at this moment. Her slightly deep and hoarse voice slowly rang out in the gentle night breeze.
"The name Yehui is the last gift my mother left me in this world, and she was always an extremely gentle person."
But this world is so unfair; the gentler and kinder a person is, the more unbearable the hardships they will endure in their life.
Within this sea of flowers, all sorts of blossoms swayed gently in the breeze created by the two of them as they moved forward, as if paving a brand new road.
At the end of the road stands a solitary stone monument.
Its extremely rough shape is more like a stubborn rock whose surface has been forcibly flattened.
There wasn't even any information left, as if it had been carelessly placed there, inexplicably tinging this otherwise vibrant sea of flowers with a touch of melancholy.
"Grandpa said that due to pressure from within the clan, he could only do this much secretly behind the clan's back. Because of the proximity to the Yuanen family's residence, he couldn't even personally build a proper tombstone for my mother."
I don't actually blame him for anything. I understand that as the head of the entire Yuanen family, he needs to prioritize the bigger picture and, more importantly, take responsibility for the family members who died that night, giving their families an explanation.
Yuan Enhui stood before the tombstone, her voice soft, as if completely blending into the evening breeze, lest it fade away and vanish into nothingness.
Huo Yuhao gazed silently at the blank tombstone, his thoughts drifting as if recalling the past, ultimately culminating in a sigh filled with complex emotions.
"I think if you bring it up now to move your mother back to the family ancestral hall, given your current position in the family, you shouldn't face too much resistance."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Enhui simply shook his head slightly: "In the past, my family and I often came here to take walks and play in the mountains. My mother also loved the tranquility here and the flowers that bloom freely."
She often taught me that people come into this world simply, and when they leave, they should leave simply as well.
She paused, her tone very calm, "Why force things in this way and put everyone in a difficult position?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Dark Demon Sword materialized in Yuanen Yehui's hand.
She took a few steps forward, and the jet-black sword light flickered silently.
With a flick of his wrist, the four large characters "Tomb of Night Glow" were quickly engraved on the stone tablet.
Just as she said, her name comes from her mother, whose name is Ye Hui.
After doing all this, Yuanen Yehui released the dark magic sword from his hand, knelt down gently in front of the tombstone, put his hands together in front of his chest, closed his eyes, as if he were praying something devoutly.
Seeing Yuanen Yehui's sudden action, Huo Yuhao, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
He wasn't some clueless blockhead. After experiencing so much, how could he not see that Yuanen Yehui harbored special feelings for him?
In particular, Gu Yue's act of putting that silver dragon ring on their finger had greatly stimulated these girls, making them even more restless.
At this moment, Yuan Enhui brought her to her mother's grave, and the purpose behind it was all too obvious.
This is undoubtedly an unconventional way of meeting the parents.
Huo Yuhao knew that if he knelt down at this moment, it would be tantamount to tacitly acknowledging the relationship between him and Yuanen Yehui.
Given Yuan Enhui's decisive and swift nature, something rather embarrassing is likely to happen between them tonight.
But if I don't kneel down and just stand here blankly, pretending to be stupid, it seems extremely inappropriate.
Doing so would undoubtedly break the little girl's hopeful heart and plunge her into an even more distressing situation.
Just as Huo Yuhao felt a pang of toothache and was about to grit his teeth and kneel down, a faint purple light suddenly appeared on the ground behind the tombstone.
The faint light seemed to have been captured by something special, and it went straight into Huo Yuhao's brow.
The next moment, the alluring voice of the Rakshasa God rang in Huo Yuhao's mind.
"Oh my, this is quite an unexpected surprise. I guessed that the demon seed was not a native product of the Douluo plane. After Yuanen's mother transformed into the demon gate that connected the demon plane, her soul essence was no longer under the jurisdiction of the Douluo plane."
Even upon death, the soul will not enter the so-called underworld for normal reincarnation; it will only be slowly worn away by the rules of heaven and earth day after day.
Rakshasa God chuckled and continued, "Fortunately, she had reached the level of a Title Douluo in her lifetime, so her soul wouldn't be so easily destroyed. This actually benefits us."
"You're letting us off easy?"
As if he had touched some inviolable sore spot, Huo Yuhao's tone instantly became filled with rare anger.
"Rakshasa God, I don't know what you're plotting, but I warn you, you will not be allowed to use Yuanen's mother's soul in any way!"
"Oh, little one, don't get angry so easily."
Rakshasa was not intimidated by Huo Yuhao's anger; on the contrary, his tone became more relaxed.
"Let me tell you the whole story. If this is done well, you might even end up thanking me properly."
Rakshasa God toned down his seductive manner and explained earnestly, "Let me get to the point first. Now that we have this demon seed that contains the last essence of Yuanen's mother's soul, if you use the right method, it will be extremely easy for you to resurrect Yuanen's mother in the future."
As for the other side benefits, you should know that there is more than one demon lord in that demon plane.
The demon seed within Yuan En Hui was controlled by Naba. After killing that guy, the connection between the demon seed and the origin of the demon plane was naturally severed.
Rakshasa smiled again and added, "But back then, during the invasion of the demon plane, the Yuanen family and Shrek Academy only forcibly closed the demon gate, without killing the demon lord who was in charge."
In other words, the demon seed left behind by Yuanen's mother still maintains a very strong connection with a certain ruler of the demon plane.
After hearing these explanations, Huo Yuhao's brows remained tightly furrowed, and he asked in confusion, "So what? That demon lord failed to invade several years ago and almost lost his life, and now Alba has died directly in the Douluo plane."
I don't believe he'd have the guts to continue plotting an invasion of the Douluo Continent after such a series of setbacks.
"Spatial passages have always existed in both directions. If he doesn't dare to come over again, can't we go over to him on our own?" Rakshasa God seemed very excited at this moment, but then his tone became somewhat annoyed.
"Actually, I should have thought of this last time when we invaded the demon plane. But it was mainly the backup plan that you told Yali about earlier that awakened some of my long-forgotten memories."
Little one, the golden dragon spear in your hand has the effect of devouring the energy of all things, and your older sister can also set up a magic circle with a similar devouring effect, specifically to absorb negative energy such as resentment and killing in the world.
If I suggested setting up this kind of magic array in the Douluo Continent to restore my strength, you definitely wouldn't agree, little guy. So what if we set up this magic array in the Demon Continent?
You should know that the energy accumulated in that demon plane is very much to my liking. If I can use the magic array to devour all the energy in the entire demon plane, I will definitely be able to recover to the state of a first-level god in one fell swoop.
In that case, little one, you won't have to worry about Poseidon, who might return to Douluo Continent at any moment. But little one, are you willing to trust your older sister?"
Huo Yuhao naturally understood the deeper meaning hidden in Rakshasa God's words.
As the god of evil, Rakshasa is like a person's name and a tree's shadow; most people, upon hearing her name, would not think she would be a kind person with good intentions.
Even though the Rakshasa god had been residing in his body all this time, it had not done anything to harm him or those around him. In fact, it had helped him a lot on many occasions.
But what if she actually devours the entire demon plane, restores herself to a first-level god, or even advances further with the help of this power?
No one can say for sure whether what the Rakshasa God did after regaining his power was good or bad, or whether it would bring new disasters to the Douluo Continent.
After a long silence, Huo Yuhao replied in a calm tone: "When the great calamity of the God Realm descended, my teacher was unaware of the plan I was secretly preparing. He led the seven elemental gods in a battle that was almost a life-or-death struggle against the seven original sin gods."
Even though my teacher's side had a numerical advantage, they still lost. Do you know the most crucial reason why?
Why?
The Rakshasa god asked with great interest.
Although she was essentially a special product of Bibi Dong's remaining obsession combined with the Rakshasa Godhood, she was not unfamiliar with the structure of the divine realm and the strength of the gods.
Under normal circumstances, the seven elemental gods, who are the true gods, are roughly equal in strength to the seven original sin gods.
With Rong Nianbing, the former God of Emotions, leading the team, losing this contest seems truly unbelievable.
"The Seven Deadly Sins, each of whom represents, in the eyes of the world, an ultimate evil of original sin."
Yet, when faced with the imminent threat of their own demise, they selflessly helped each other, unleashing a power even more sacred and pure than that of self-proclaimed righteous gods.
Huo Yuhao explained softly, "The reason is simple: they only possess the divine position of the God of Original Sin, not the original sin itself."
They merely control deities used to manifest certain evil rules; they are not inherently evil themselves. If the distinction between good and evil were as simple as black and white, perhaps there wouldn't be so many perplexing things in this world.
"Oh dear, so according to what you're saying, little one, in your heart, am I good or evil?"
After listening to Huo Yuhao's insights, Rakshasa God's voice seemed to remain largely unchanged, still as charming and alluring as ever.
Huo Yuhao replied seriously, "I don't know at the moment, and I'm not qualified to make any judgments about you."
Ultimately, only after a person has lived their entire life can their actions be objectively judged by posterity. But for now, I am willing to believe you.
This time, it was Rakshasa who fell into a long silence. After a long while, she finally spoke, her voice slightly annoyed, yet carrying a hint of indescribable emotion.
"Honestly, little one. Your temper is exactly as Yali said, always blindly doing good deeds like this."
You'd better remember this well: don't trust people too easily in the future. Especially beautiful women, they're more likely to use sweet words to deceive you.
But, well, I've always adored you, little one. For your sake, I'll make an exception and be a good person this time.
Hearing Rakshasa God's words, Huo Yuhao became even more at a loss.
Did Rakshasa want me to believe her, or not?
Just as Huo Yuhao was filled with doubt, a slightly weak but extremely gentle voice, tinged with a hint of confusion, suddenly rang in his mind.
"Little brother, what has happened? I remember, wasn't I already dead?"
Although Yehui's soul was temporarily preserved because it resided in the demon seed, it did not enter the underworld to begin reincarnation.
But clearly, her soul had no energy left to explore information from the outside world, and even her memories were still stuck at the moment before she chose to commit suicide to protect her family.
