Chapter 265 Huo Yun'er: Could she be my daughter-in-law?!
"Douluo: Huo Yuhao's Double Transmigration to the Peerless Dragon King": Explosive word-of-mouth and rave reviews!
Leng Yaozhu then changed the subject back to the main point: "Moreover, the time you travel between the two worlds is not fixed."
"If I want to return to the world ten thousand years from now, I'm afraid I'll have to stay in your undead plane forever."
"Otherwise, if we miss the next opportunity to travel through time, we don't know how long we'll have to wait to go back."
"If the deputy tower master of the Spirit Pagoda disappears into thin air, there will likely be a lot of trouble."
Huo Yuhao nodded; this was indeed a problem that could not be ignored.
When they first traveled between the two worlds, time was almost relatively still.
How long he spent ten thousand years ago is but a fleeting moment in the future.
But things changed after that. According to his own records, the intervals between his traversals ranged from ten days to several months, with no discernible pattern.
But Huo Yuhao then smiled, his tone becoming more relaxed: "However, based on my experience from so many time travels, although the trigger time is indeed not fixed each time, so far, the shortest interval has not been less than ten days."
Even conservatively speaking, there should be absolutely no problem letting Aunt Leng move around freely outside for the first five days.
Leng Yaozhu nodded upon hearing this, a rare hint of genuine interest appearing on her face: "Alright, it'll be a good opportunity for me to experience the scenery of ten thousand years ago."
To be honest, she was also a little excited.
She would never have had such an opportunity to travel through ten thousand years of time if it weren't for Huo Yuhao.
The thought that she might be able to see those figures who only exist in history books filled Leng Yaozhu with a long-lost sense of anticipation.
"Yuhao, it's time for dinner!"
A gentle female voice suddenly came from downstairs.
Huo Yuhao subconsciously turned his head to look out the window. The setting sun, about to sink below the horizon, was casting its last rays of light onto the courtyard wall. It was indeed dinnertime.
A smile unconsciously crept onto his lips. No matter how many times he traveled through millennia, hearing his mother calling him to eat always instantly pulled him out of all his complicated thoughts.
He turned his gaze from the window to Leng Yaozhu beside him, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Aunt Leng, would you like to... meet my mother?"
Leng Yaozhu thought for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
Now that she had arrived in this timeline from ten thousand years ago, Huo Yuhao naturally wanted to meet his mother.
Huo Yun'er was wearing a floral apron and busy in the kitchen.
The iron pot on the stove was still steaming. She used a rag to hold the pot handles and brought the last dish to the table, then turned around to check the rice steaming in the pot.
Four dishes and a soup—not a lavish meal, but each one was exquisitely prepared.
She raised her hand to wipe the fine beads of sweat from her forehead, her face flushed and a faint smile on her face. Her gaze kept glancing towards the stairs as she waited for her son to come down.
Before long, familiar footsteps could be heard on the wooden stairs.
Huo Yun'er smiled and looked up: "Go wash your hands first, today's dishes..."
She stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence.
Because she saw another figure behind her son.
The man followed behind Huo Yuhao, slowly descending the stairs.
With a graceful and tall figure, her long dress, though simple in style, could not conceal her aloofness and noble air.
Her long, fiery red hair was casually draped behind her head, shimmering with a dark red sheen under the indoor lights.
As she descended the stairs, her cold and stunningly beautiful face was clearly revealed to Huo Yun'er.
With phoenix eyes and thin lips, his features were so exquisite they seemed unreal, and he exuded an indescribable and awe-inspiring aura.
Huo Yun'er stood there, still holding the chopsticks she was about to hand to her son, but she was frozen in place as if she had been put on a spell.
Her mind suddenly went blank. How did a woman suddenly appear in her son's room?
And she was an incredibly beautiful woman with an aura that clearly indicated she wasn't an ordinary person.
"Could it be my son's girlfriend?!"
This thought popped into Huo Yun'er's mind without warning. In the Douluo Continent, it was perfectly normal for teenagers to develop feelings for each other.
There were quite a few children in the neighborhood who were engaged even though they were a year or two younger than Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yun'er's gaze unconsciously lingered on the figure behind Huo Yuhao, and she couldn't help but scrutinize him.
Her figure and appearance were naturally impeccable; her graceful and tall figure, and her stunningly beautiful features, were flawless even to the most discerning mother-in-law.
But... she looks quite a bit older than Yuhao, doesn't she?
Huo Yuhao just turned fourteen this year. Although he has grown to nearly 1.8 meters tall, his face still retains some of the immaturity and naivety of a young boy.
The red-haired woman in front of him had a calm and aloof demeanor. The composure between her brows clearly indicated that she had experienced many storms and had cultivated an aura of composure. She looked to be more than ten years older than Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yun'er's heart was filled with mixed feelings. She never objected to her son finding an older partner, but at this age...
Just as Huo Yun'er was lost in thought, Huo Yuhao and Leng Yaozhu had already walked down the stairs.
Huo Yuhao stepped aside slightly, making way for Leng Yaozhu behind him. His gaze towards his mother was open yet solemn as he introduced her, "Mom, this is my teacher, Leng Yaozhu."
"If it weren't for her secret support, we wouldn't have been able to escape the White Tiger Duke's mansion safely back then."
"ah?!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yun'er froze on the spot once again.
A teacher? This red-haired woman with an extraordinary air about her is actually Yuhao's teacher?!
After a brief moment of surprise, those long-buried memories were as if an invisible hand had lifted the lid, instantly flooding into Huo Yun'er's mind.
Those dark years of struggling to survive in the White Tiger Duke's mansion, the resolute and panicked escape from the White Tiger Duke's mansion...
Especially considering Huo Yuhao's extraordinary talent in Soul Master cultivation and his amazing mastery of Soul Tools, which far surpasses that of his peers, how could a boy of a few years old have figured out all that knowledge that even ordinary adult Soul Masters might not have mastered on his own?
Huo Yun'er had asked herself these questions before.
Since Huo Yuhao never offered an explanation, she considerately refrained from pressing him for an answer.
Today, the answer has finally been presented to her.
My son really does have a teacher secretly guiding and supporting him!
Huo Yun'er instantly realized that her previous thoughts were extremely rude.
She actually mistook the mentor who changed her and her son's fate for her son's girlfriend, and was even standing there pondering issues like their age...
Her cheeks were slightly flushed, but the warm yellow light in the kitchen helped to mask it.
After a brief moment of surprise, Huo Yun'er quickly wiped her hands on the floral apron in front of her and hurried forward to meet her.
A genuine smile, tinged with gratitude, bloomed on her face: "Oh, you're Yuhao's teacher! Please, have a seat!"
