A vast and mysterious power of fate slowly enveloped the Douluo Continent. Under this force, Huo Yuhao's originally dormant consciousness gradually awakened.
"Bold Tang Hao! You dare kill my son—die!"
A majestic voice rang out. Immediately after, a dazzling golden light swept across the sky, illuminating the entire Star Dou Forest in moments.
Wherever the golden light passed, almost all living beings trembled and lay prostrate on the ground.
This sudden voice filled with divine power entered Huo Yuhao's ears. His beautiful blue eyes slowly opened.
However, those eyes were filled with confusion.
"What's going on… I remember being caught in a spacetime turbulence. Shouldn't I be dead? Why am I here? And what is this unfamiliar divine power?"
Huo Yuhao was full of questions. But when he tried to speak, only babbling sounds of a baby came out.
!!!
"What is this?!"
Huo Yuhao stared in shock at his small, tender hands.
He had… turned into a baby?!
"Found you, Tang Hao!"
Before Huo Yuhao could figure things out, the majestic voice rang out again.
Instinctively, Huo Yuhao looked forward. The Eternal Eye in his forehead flickered.
He clearly saw that ahead in a canyon, a tall and sturdy man was struck by terrifying divine pressure. He staggered, almost falling to the ground, his already fragile body suffering another heavy blow as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Looking at the Clear Sky Hammer in the man's hand, Huo Yuhao thought:
"Clear Sky Hammer… He must be from the Clear Sky Sect. Then who is chasing him? His martial soul looks like an angel, similar to Ye Guyi's, but far superior to the Holy Angel. And… he clearly carries the aura of a god! But hasn't the Angel God's position already been shattered?"
Even Huo Yuhao was shocked by the angelic man's strength.
Though both were Level 99 Limit Douluo, this man's aura was slightly stronger than his teacher Mu En's. Moreover, he carried a divine presence.
While Huo Yuhao observed Qian Daoliu, Tang Hao also stared in disbelief at the figure within the golden light.
The man was handsome and imposing, dressed in white-gold robes, with three pairs of golden wings on his back and holding an angelic holy sword. The pressure he emitted made it impossible for Tang Hao to stand.
This person was one of the three great Limit Douluo of the Douluo Continent—Angel Douluo, Qian Daoliu!
"Your Excellency Angel Douluo! I only injured Qian Xunji, I never killed him. There must be some misunderstanding!"
Tang Hao roared, gripping the Clear Sky Hammer tightly, already prepared to fight to the death. Against Qian Daoliu, he had no chance of winning—not even his father could defeat him!
"Tang Hao, even now you dare argue? Colluding with a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, killing the Pope of Spirit Hall—killing my son! Tang Hao, accept judgment!"
Qian Daoliu spoke coldly.
"Qian Daoliu! What right do you have to judge me?! It was your Spirit Hall that hunted my wife and child first! I don't care if Ah Yin is a soul beast—she is my wife, the mother of my son! What right do you have to take everything from me?!"
Tang Hao roared in fury, clutching the swaddled infant tightly while his hammer trembled in his hand.
Qian Daoliu said nothing. He simply raised his hand slightly, and an overwhelming pressure descended once again.
Seeing this scene and hearing their conversation, Huo Yuhao finally understood—
He had transmigrated. Into the Douluo Continent during the Spirit Hall era.
So the man being beaten like a dog was Tang Hao…
And the baby in his arms, nearly suffocated from being held too tightly—
Was Tang San!
After confirming Tang San's identity, Huo Yuhao struggled to pick up two small stones from the ground and threw them toward Tang San's head… but his strength was too weak, and the distance too far. He missed.
Tang San: …
"Bro, that's rude."
No one noticed Huo Yuhao's little action. At this moment, the battle had reached its climax.
Tang Hao stared resolutely at Qian Daoliu as nine spirit rings appeared around him.
"Killing God Domain, open! Grand Sumeru Hammer, open! Nine Rings—detonate!"
Without holding back, Tang Hao detonated all nine spirit rings. A vast power surged into the blood-red Clear Sky Hammer, unleashing an attack comparable to a Level 99 peerless Douluo, clashing against the Angel Domain.
At the center of the explosion, a massive mushroom cloud rose. The terrifying force shattered the ground, crushed rocks, and uprooted trees.
When the dust settled, Tang Hao had disappeared.
Qian Daoliu stood unharmed, but tears streamed down his face.
"Xunji… so this is the kind of attack you faced…"
He gazed sorrowfully in the direction Tang Hao fled.
"Tang Chen… your grandson gravely injured my son. I have now severely injured yours. I hope you take care in the future."
Only after watching Tang Hao leave with Tang San did Qian Daoliu turn to leave.
But just as he was about to fly away, he noticed Huo Yuhao nearby.
He paused, then picked up the crawling baby.
Huo Yuhao froze. When he met Qian Daoliu's gaze, his expression immediately turned innocent and silly.
Qian Daoliu stared at the baby in his arms.
The child's sapphire-like blue eyes shone brilliantly, and he radiated a gentle aura that calmed Qian Daoliu's restless heart.
Their golden and blue eyes met.
"Babble… babble…"
Inside, Huo Yuhao felt humiliated as he forced a cute smile.
"A dignified God King reduced to acting cute… this is too embarrassing!"
But he had no choice.
"Better to survive by acting adorable… Tianmeng, Snow Empress, come save me!"
Qian Daoliu, of course, had no idea what the baby was thinking. He simply found him adorable, reminded of Qian Xunji as a child.
"Could this child be heaven's compensation to me?"
He looked up at the sun and murmured.
From the baby, he sensed a divine aura—not the Angel God, but equally pure and sacred.
"From now on… your name will be Huo Yuhao."
Tearing a piece from his robe, he wrapped the baby gently, then used soul power to form a protective barrier around him.
After that, Qian Daoliu soared into the sky, flying swiftly into the distance.
