In the sky, there are dark clouds.
In front of the grave, the young man stood there for a long time.
Huo Yuhao stood quietly in front of a tombstone with his hands on his shoulders, watching silently.
This tombstone is tall, two meters tall, even taller than Huo Yuhao. The material of the tombstone is also precious and rare granite, with exquisite patterns carved on it, which is lifelike. After the tombstone is a spacious tomb that has been beautifully repaired.
With such a gorgeous burial place, the owner of the tomb must have been either rich or noble.
However, the location of the cemetery does not match this luxurious tomb. It is just a remote hilly area covered with vegetation.
Huo Yuhao still stood silently and watched, wondering how long he had been standing in front of this grave on this cloudy day.
The wind howled, the trees rustled, and dark clouds covered the sky. Occasionally, flashes of lightning lit up the gaps in the clouds, indicating the coming heavy rain, and adding a bit of weirdness to the world.
And in this dark space, Huo Yuhao, the young man who stood alone in front of the grave, had a weak ice-blue light in his cold and sharp eyes.
The owner of these eyes is only eleven years old this year, and his handsome face has already begun to lose its youthfulness, and the determination in his eyes makes him even more mature.
People in this world grow quickly. Huo Yuhao is only eleven years old this year and is already 1.7 meters tall.
Why emphasize "this world"? Because Huo Yuhao was not originally from this world, he was a time traveler.
Huo Yuhao also forgot how he traveled through time. He only knew that he came to this world eleven years ago.
This world is called Douluo Continent.
On the Douluo Continent, everyone can awaken their own martial spirit at the age of six, which may be called a weapon martial spirit or a beast martial spirit. Those with talents among them can cultivate soul power and become soul masters.
Cultivation is the reason why Huo Yuhao grows so quickly.
Weapon soul masters can summon weapons, and beast soul masters can possess martial souls, but Huo Yuhao does not belong to the two.
His martial spirit is his eyes!
It is neither a weapon spirit nor a beast spirit, but a rare but powerful one - the body spirit!
Unfortunately, a powerful martial soul does not come with a strong talent. While awakening the martial soul, everyone's innate soul power will be tested from zero to ten.
The highest level is tenth level, which is called innate full soul power, and can be said to be a dragon or a phoenix among people.
The vast majority of civilians have no talent at all, and their cultivation has no chance of being congenitally without soul power.
Then how much innate soul power does Huo Yuhao have?
one.
Innate soul power.
Poor talent may have predicted his rough fate.
Huo Yuhao's calm eyes seemed to contain a trace of confusion and resentment as he stared at the tall tombstone in front of him.
There are two columns of words engraved in the middle of the tombstone:
The tomb of beloved wife (loving mother) Huo Yuner, Dai Hao (Huo Yuhao)
This tomb is none other than Huo Yuhao's mother in this world, Huo Yun'er.
Huo Yuhao was an orphan in his previous life. Although he was adopted by his uncle and did not treat him materially, his uncle who was busy with work had no time to fill in the family affection that Huo Yuhao lacked.
He still enjoys maternal love in this world.
If that man, who was his father in terms of status, could fulfill his responsibilities, then Huo Yuhao would be able to enjoy complete family affection.
Huo Yuhao stared at the name on the tombstone.
Dai Hao.
This person is none other than the hereditary and distinguished Duke of White Tiger in the Star Luo Empire.
Huo Yuhao's mother, Huo Yun'er, was the personal maid of Duke White Tiger who grew up with her, and was favored by the Duke. So, one night, Huo Yuhao was born.
However, a maid is a maid after all, and Huo Yuhao is just an illegitimate child. The mother and son were constantly suppressed by the duchess. When the White Tiger Duke was away frequently due to the war, Huo Yuhao and his son not only had to do all kinds of menial work, but even had to live in the woodshed of the duke's palace.
"Old woman, I'll beat you to death!"
The young Huo Yuhao could only vent his emotions by cursing. Every time he picked up firewood, he would use the firewood to beat the duchess in his imagination eight times.
He also knew that he could not possibly shake the aloof Duchess, let alone that she was from the Star Luo royal family. (The original setting of the Duchess’s identity was adopted, and the original setting is adopted here.)
However, although it was hard work and had to do a lot of work, every time Huo Yuhao saw his mother's gentle smile and gently rubbed the wounds on his body, a warm current of happiness would flow through his body.
Is this maternal love...?
When she was free, Huo Yuhao would sometimes pretend to be childish and deliberately ask her mother: "Where is daddy?"
"Why doesn't he come to see us?"
Huo Yun'er would respond gently every time: "Your father went to fight for the motherland."
"Yuhao, don't hate your father..."
Answers like this were given every time. Although they still contained kind motherly love, they kept eroding Huo Yuhao's patience.
Why?
Why do you think so?
Don’t you know what your life is like now?
Why should you forgive that man?
Huo Yuhao didn't understand why Huo Yun'er was so...ignorant?
However, he still tolerated it, and the negative emotions continued to be squeezed, and they were far from the point of explosion.
Finally, after working day after day, Huo Yun'er fell ill. This year, Huo Yuhao was only seven years old.
Although Huo Yuhao only has one innate soul power, his physical fitness is stronger than that of ordinary people. But Huo Yun'er is a weak woman without even a bit of soul power!
Just an ordinary wind and cold could easily take away this woman's fragile life.
"Mom, take a good rest, I'll go find a doctor."
Huo Yuhao made arrangements for Huo Yun'er, who had recovered slightly, and walked out of the Duke's Mansion resolutely.
He doesn't know medical skills and doesn't know where to find a doctor, but his eyes are firm and his goal is clear——
Dai Hao, Duke of White Tiger.
Huo Yuhao deeply understood that this man was the source of her mother's pain.
He himself can escape from the Duke's Palace at any time and walk away and be done with it, but for his mother, he must solve the problem completely!
No one knows how Huo Yuhao, who was only seven years old, traveled hundreds of thousands of miles alone to find the military camp where Duke White Tiger was stationed.
When Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger had just won a great victory in a medium-sized battle and was about to express condolences to the soldiers, he was shocked to see a seven-year-old child coming to the army and asking him to accuse him.
When he learned that the angry child was his and Huo Yun'er's child, Dai Hao rushed back to the Duke's Mansion like crazy.
From then on, Huo Yun'er's fate changed.
The White Tiger Duke was resolute, and even if the Duchess wanted to say something, it would be of no avail. After all, the Duke's Mansion always listens to Duke White Tiger!
Huo Yuner has a status and no longer has to work. Huo Yuhao has also officially become the son of a duke. Although he is just a bastard, his salary has been improved, he is well-nourished, he no longer has to work, and his body is getting taller and taller.
The servants who used to work with the duchess to suppress them now could only treat Huo Yuhao and his son with respect.
But... Huo Yun'er, who is kind-hearted by nature, can't bear to boss around the servants, and still does many chores by himself.
After not enjoying a peaceful life for several years, Huo Yun felt cold again. This time she was not so lucky. Although she took the best medicine, she still passed away.
"I beg you to be kind to yourself!"
For a long time, Huo Yuhao felt an unreasonable anger in his heart and uttered a sentence through gritted teeth.
The tone was full of sadness for his misfortune and anger for his indisputableness.
Rumble——
Thunder exploded in the sky, and then raindrops gradually fell.
"Is it raining?"
Huo Yuhao raised his head slightly and stretched out his right hand to feel the increasingly dense raindrops.
The rain filled the palms of my hands, and then a chill spread out, and the rain in my palms actually condensed into ice cubes.
Huo Yuhao calmly put the ice cube into his mouth and chewed it gently.
Click——
The ice cubes shattered, turning into coolness in the mouth and calmness in the brain.
This is Huo Yuhao’s second martial spirit——
ice!
He is also a rare twin martial soul holder!
I don't know since when, chewing ice cubes became Huo Yuhao's habit of forcing himself to calm down.
brush--
The sound of heavy footsteps on the wet grass and soil came from behind, and it seemed that the owner of the footsteps could feel the heaviness in his heart.
Huo Yuhao snorted coldly. He knew who it was without turning around, and said with a strange air:
“What a rare visitor~”
"What brings you here?"
"Your Excellency, Duke White Tiger?"
