Chapter 390 An Incongruous God of Love; And What Do You Take Others For?
Huo Yuhao felt a headache coming on after hearing these words.
He really didn't expect that Zhu Zhuqing would so directly expose his true identity in such an awkward situation.
The reason I didn't reveal my identity immediately was because I didn't know how to face Xiao Wu, my former mother-in-law.
Especially now, with this complicated and tangled relationship, he feels somewhat lost and helpless.
Seeing that the situation had reached a stalemate, Huo Yuhao could only turn to Zhu Zhuqing for help.
Zhu Zhuqing realized that her impulsive actions had created another mess, so she quickly coughed lightly and tried to smooth things over:
"Xiao Wu, don't say so many discouraging things. People always have to look forward. As for those things from the past, let's sit down and discuss them slowly after we've resolved the current problems."
Now that we all share a common goal, let's seriously discuss how to deal with the Cupid who has taken over Rongrong's body.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao took the opportunity to continue the conversation, saying in a deep voice, "Speaking of which, I have always been very curious about this. Why did Ning Rongrong suddenly come to Qiankun Wenqing Valley?"
How could I have offended the goddess of love who has been dead for over 100,000 years, and even caused her physical body to be possessed?
……
On the vast sea, three streaks of light pierced the sky, speeding toward the horizon.
Inside the soul power barrier, Huo Yuhao frowned slightly and looked at Zhu Zhuqing beside him, asking:
"According to what you just said, Ancestor, the one who was beside Tang San in the Valley of Love and Destiny was Ning Rongrong?"
Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly, her expression complex.
Now that things have come to this, there's no point in continuing to hide the truth from back then.
Ning Rongrong's body is now possessed by that god of love, and it's unknown whether her original soul is still alive. There's no need to cover up anything for the dead anymore.
"Shortly after we arrived in the Douluo Continent, Rongrong rushed to Qiankun Wenqing Valley with Oscar."
You can probably guess what happened next: the divine essence left behind by the god of love in the valley seems to have been suddenly awakened by the scattered fragments of the divine realm, and it wants to find a vessel to be reborn.
In that critical moment, Oscar, in order to save Rongrong, even set himself ablaze, attempting to perish together with Cupid.
But who would have thought that the final outcome wouldn't change anything? Instead, it resulted in him getting himself involved, and Rongrong couldn't escape the fate of being possessed either.
At this point, Zhu Zhuqing's face showed a hint of regret, whether she was lamenting the passing of her old friend or feeling sorry for the two of them for bringing this upon themselves.
Huo Yuhao looked puzzled and pondered for a moment before speaking: "There are still some points I don't understand."
The goddess of love had previously told the ancestor that one of her purposes in secretly pressuring you was to ascertain my true identity, and the other was so that she could return and preserve her divine soul when the new divine realm was born.
However, her series of actions were simply too incongruous. If she truly needed something from someone or wanted to achieve a cooperation, there was no need to resort to such a humiliating method.
In my opinion, her current actions seem more like she's deliberately provoking us, trying to find a way to die.
According to Zhu Zhuqing's description, Cupid not only took over Ning Rongrong's body, but also absorbed all of her memories.
Since she possesses Ning Rongrong's memories, she couldn't possibly be unaware of the events that occurred in Qiankun Wenqing Valley, and she should understand where her Achilles' heel lies.
Xiao Wu shrugged and said casually, "Oh, what's there to not understand? It's just that you're too good-looking, Yuhao."
Didn't Cupid just say that she was overjoyed when she first saw you? Think about it, she perished because of her lover's betrayal, so maybe she's not quite right in the head now.
Seeing a handsome young man like you makes me want to act crazy and do something like love born from hate.
Upon hearing this absurd explanation, Huo Yuhao's lips twitched involuntarily.
He would rather believe that Cupid simply disliked him or wanted to see a love that defied societal norms than Xiao Wu's reason.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing's heterochromatic eyes also showed a hint of speechlessness.
If I had to pick the most likely candidate, it would probably be you, the rabbit who's completely infatuated with Yuhao, who's most likely to be the one to ignite a passionate flame.
The thought of Xiao Wu's suicidal thoughts brought another pang of pain to Zhu Zhuqing's heart.
Is it really the only solution now to let Yuhao and Xiaowu be together, as Cupid has suggested, to fill the void in her heart?
In the brief moment that the three were exchanging information, they soon arrived at the edge of the sea.
The scene before me was quite strange; this little world seemed to be encased in an infinitely large hemispherical glass dome.
The surging seawater rushed here, crashing against that invisible barrier in the void, stirring up thousands of waves, yet it could never cross it even an inch.
If you look closely, you can even vaguely see that beyond the barrier in front of you is a void like a black hole.
Huo Yuhao stopped, turned around, and extended his right hand to Zhu Zhuqing. He said solemnly, "I have checked the token left by Cupid repeatedly. There is no trap inside."
Next, I will use the spatial coordinates reserved on the token to perform a point-to-point jump. The process may be a bit bumpy, so please hold my hand and don't let go, ancestor.
Seeing Huo Yuhao so naturally extend his hand to Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu subconsciously puffed out her cheeks.
Just as I suspected, without the cover of Ling Bing's identity, Yu Hao started to behave himself and be polite to me again, even deliberately avoiding any suspicion.
Even though she knew this wasn't the time to throw a tantrum like a little girl, she still felt a pang of sadness for no reason when she saw the hand reaching out to Zhu Zhuqing.
However, Xiao Wu was not unaware of the gravity of the situation, and she still obediently held Zhu Zhuqing's hand.
As the three of them clasped hands, Huo Yuhao no longer hesitated and gripped the token tightly with his left hand.
A soft hum suddenly rang out, and a dazzling silver light shone from the token, instantly engulfing the three figures completely.
A familiar feeling of weightlessness washed over me, and the surroundings turned dark and gloomy, with only countless shimmering lines rushing past.
However, at that moment, a halo of gold and silver light suddenly appeared in the originally stable spatial passage, and Ning Rongrong's charming voice suddenly rang in Huo Yuhao's ears.
"Successor of the God of Destruction, I just made it very clear that I only invited you to come and reminisce."
As for your two good friends, why don't you rest somewhere else for a while? Once we've finished discussing our matters, you'll naturally have a time to meet again.
Easily access Cola Novels and enjoy reading thousands of great books, including "Douluo: Reborn Yuhao, Their Eyes Are Strange".
Huo Yuhao was startled. He was about to use spatial elements to stabilize the passage when the golden and silver energy directly scattered the three of them.
Half an hour later.
As the dizzying sense of emptiness around her gradually faded, Xiao Wu, who was visiting Qiankun Wenqing Valley for the first time, opened her red lips slightly and looked shocked when she saw the scene before her.
The world here was turned upside down; the sun and moon, which should have been high in the sky, were now completely submerged in the lake below.
Before Xiao Wu could get a good look, she was pulled by a gentle force and, as if she were encased in a bubble, plummeted straight into the golden lake.
Another wave of dizziness and vertigo washed over me.
When Xiao Wu opened her eyes again, she found that the scenery around her had changed drastically.
At this moment, she is standing on a towering, precipitous ice peak.
A biting wind howled past, whipping up a flurry of snow and ice.
Amidst the swirling snowflakes, on a flat area not far from her, two figures stood facing each other.
They were two equally tall girls, both with long, light blue hair that flew freely in the wind and snow.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Wu suddenly covered her red lips, and glistening tears welled up in her eyes.
"Xiao Wu, I know what your purpose was in contacting me in the first place."
Ning Rongrong's calm voice, as clear as a devil's whisper, rang in Xiao Wu's ears:
"But just listening to me tell those stories in a dry, uninspiring way is nothing compared to witnessing that history firsthand, which is far more unforgettable."
This is a special gift from me, your best friend, to you.
"No, no—"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu could no longer control her emotions and screamed out in anguish.
This mournful cry, tinged with sobs, was it addressed to Cupid, who was hiding somewhere, or to the two girls before him, bewitched and determined to kill the other in order to "prove true love"?
……
When the weightlessness from the spatial teleportation disappeared, Huo Yuhao suddenly opened his eyes and found himself in a strange space filled with interwoven gold and silver light.
Not far from him stood a pink-haired girl.
The girl's true face was completely covered by the mask, except for her eyes, which shone brightly through the holes in the mask.
Upon seeing Ning Rongrong's true form, Huo Yuhao's brows furrowed instinctively.
He could naturally sense the constant fluctuations of a certain law or authority emanating from the other party.
However, this fluctuation is extremely unstable, just like a kettle with a noticeable crack at the bottom, where the energy inside is constantly leaking out and it may dry up at any time.
Ning Rongrong saw that Huo Yuhao looked wary, but she didn't care.
Instead, she gracefully gave a slight bow and said softly, "Successor of the God of Destruction, with your discerning eye, you must have noticed the abnormality in my body."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao snorted coldly and said, "If this is how you ask for help, and you achieve your goals by tormenting and mocking others, then this truly opens my eyes."
"I don't know why you're so angry. In my eyes, all the girls who came with you, including Zhu Qing and Xiao Wu, are entangled with you by visible red threads."
This shows that you two have a very deep connection, and you are not the kind of clueless person who doesn't understand romance.
Ning Rongrong sighed softly, her voice tinged with a hint of confusion, and asked in return, "Whether it's Xiao Wu or Zhu Zhuqing, they should both be extremely attractive to any normal man in terms of appearance and status."
"If you wish, I can even use the power of Cupid to completely alter their current bodies and memories, making them entirely yours..."
The moment the words left his mouth.
A surge of immense blood energy, mixed with a chilling aura of destruction, erupted from Huo Yuhao's body like a volcanic eruption.
Huo Yuhao's figure disappeared from the spot, and his ferocious and terrifying crimson-gold dragon claws reached out, once again gripping Ning Rongrong's slender neck in the blink of an eye.
The force was so great that it seemed that Huo Yuhao could easily kill her with a slight pull.
"You clearly hold the power of Cupid, so what do you take others for? Are they just puppets on your stage, for your own amusement?"
Hearing Huo Yuhao's extremely cold words, Ning Rongrong seemed to have little reaction.
She simply looked at Huo Yuhao with her bright eyes and said calmly, "Don't misunderstand, I've always been independent and do things my own way. What happened before wasn't meant to provoke you, nor was it any kind of test."
Besides, if I truly knew what true love was, how could I have been betrayed by my lover back then, ending up dead and gone?
I just didn't expect that you really were Huo Yuhao. Now that I'm so close to you, I understand why the God of Destruction chose you as his successor. It turns out that the Golden Dragon King's power over the laws is so profound.
As she spoke, Ning Rongrong's body twisted again, disappearing like a stream of light into Huo Yuhao's dragon claws.
Then, her figure reformed not far away.
Looking at Huo Yuhao, who had completely transformed into a crimson-gold humanoid dragon and was radiating terrifying pressure, Ning Rongrong still smiled and said:
"Let me finish what I have to say. Although I don't know why you were able to achieve such a miraculous Martial Soul fusion with that Holy Spirit Douluo when you only possessed the Golden Dragon King God Core, and even use the power of creation across levels."
But I can also see that your own soul power cultivation is simply insufficient to support you using that power against me without limit. If you suffer a backlash, the price will likely be unbearable for your current body.
He paused, then solemnly proposed:
"There is actually no irreconcilable life-or-death feud between us. Even back in Qiankun Wenqing Valley, the one who put you through those tests was the original Ning Rongrong, not me, the newcomer."
As for your current schemes against Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, if you really care that much, I can sincerely apologize to you and promise not to interfere in your affairs again.
Next, I'd like to discuss the formal details of the transaction with you.
After all, whether it's to protect those around you or to ensure my own soul's survival, we don't have much time left to waste here.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao frowned slightly, his vigilance growing even stronger.
With a flick of his wrist, the Golden Dragon Spear appeared out of thin air. He smoothly twirled it, creating a dazzling display of spear flourishes, the tip of which pointed steadily at Ning Rongrong. He then asked:
"What do you mean by that?"
