There is a beast in the bright morning.

Chapter 130 Little White Dog

In the past timeline, after being pulled into the illusionary space by Haotian, Haochen also witnessed the gap between himself and Haotian, and a sense of urgency and unease suddenly rose in his heart.

Although Hao Chen eventually left the illusionary space safely, he also got separated from Tian Lu and the Four-Faced Beast.

In order to rejoin Tianlu and the others, Haochen had no choice but to embark on a journey. Fortunately, Haochen's sense of direction was still pretty good... my foot!

"Damn it, how many mountains have we climbed already? Where exactly is Qilin Mountain? And where am I?"

Hao Chen was going crazy. He didn't know how many roads he had traveled or how many mountains he had searched, but he still couldn't find the way to Si Bu Xiang's house.

Even the mythical beasts along the way were pitifully few, leaving him no chance to ask for directions or even have a proper meal.

In the end, after searching incorrectly countless times, Hao Chen decided to give up and lay down on the ground, raising his little feet and gently wagging his tail.

"Damn Haotian, where the hell did he send me? I've been walking for so many days, but it feels like I'm still not out of this area!"

After resting for a while, Hao Chen stood up again. No matter what, he was still worried about Bi Xie and Tian Lu.

"Now that Chaos has fallen, if I remember correctly, Bixie and Tianlu did not want to leave the mountain range that Chaos had transformed into. Sibuxiang could not persuade them and stayed to take care of them. As a result, they encountered a little golden man and formed a karmic connection with the Heavenly Court."

Although he didn't know what happened next, Hao Chen thought that if he could have rushed back in time, he might have been able to prevent the Four-Faced Beasts from encountering the Little Golden Man, and thus avoid what happened afterward.

"History cannot be changed!"

Suddenly, Hao Chen remembered what Hao Tian had told him, which made him hesitate. He worried that if he got involved, things might get worse.

"Is it really impossible to change?" Hao Chen asked himself.

Boom~

While Hao Chen was in a daze, the World Tree within him suddenly trembled, as if a magnificent aura was spreading out, clearing away the fog ahead and pointing directly to Hao Chen's true nature.

Hao Chen's vision blurred for a moment, and then he saw a phantom of a divine tree rooted in chaos, with three thousand leaves and three thousand paths.

"Is this the World Tree? It has changed so much. Could it have absorbed some of the Chaos Laws after the fall of Chaos?"

Hao Chen observed the changes in the World Tree in astonishment. Compared to the last time, the World Tree, now grown, exuded a far more vast and powerful force of laws.

Endless laws intertwine and entwine, evolving into countless illusory worlds of laws. Perhaps one day, this World Tree will be able to evolve into countless great worlds, just as its name suggests.

The chaotic energy that the World Tree once fused with, relying on the basic principles of Yin and Yang, was only a wisp, as thin as a stream.

But now, with the Great Chaos Dao in hand, the World Tree can evolve into a Chaos Sea, standing upon it, boundless and limitless.

But the next moment, all the strange phenomena vanished abruptly, like a mirage, as if they had never existed. Only a small sapling remained, rooted in a black brick with specks of gold.

"Was that... just a hallucination, a dream, or something like the future of the World Tree?"

Hao Chen stared at the World Tree, which was less than a foot long, and immediately looked miserable. Putting aside how the World Tree ended up with his brick, the difference between it and the Divine Tree he had just seen was enormous.

Moreover, Hao Chen always felt that the World Tree was growing back. The last time he saw it, it seemed to be taller than this.

"Little Tree, what happened just now? Did you do this?" Hao Chen asked, tugging at the few remaining leaves on the World Tree.

The World Tree trembled slightly, as if expressing its joy, and a nascent divine thought traveled along the leaves toward Hao Chen.

"PaPa, don't be angry. ShuShu wants to make PaPa happy. ShuShu will try his best to grow into the kind of person PaPa wants to be."

Hearing the World Tree's childlike explanation, Hao Chen's heart softened. He gently touched the World Tree's leaves, and the World Tree swayed gently in response.

"You can only pamper your own tree!" Hao Chen knew how to comfort himself.

Moreover, after the World Tree's actions, Hao Chen realized that regardless of whether he could change history, he had to try.

Even if you fail, at least you tried and you fought for it. If you don't even try, then history can never be changed.

"Thanks, my little one." Hao Chen bid farewell to the World Tree. He still had to continue his journey and return to Tian Lu and the others as soon as possible.

As the World Tree lingered, Hao Chen's soul awoke, his previous confusion replaced by a resolute look in his eyes.

"嘤嘤嘤~"

At that moment, Haochen seemed to hear a weak sound coming from some animal not far away.

"That sound?! Could there be a divine beast nearby? That shouldn't be the case. In my previous divine sense, the area was clearly a barren wasteland with only one river flowing through it."

Still unable to figure it out, Hao Chen decided to go and take a look, hoping to find out where he was and how to get to the right place.

In a rushing river, a little white dog struggles desperately. Every time he tries to surface for air, he is swept back to the bottom by the surging current.

"Awooo~ Awooo~" Gradually, the little white dog quickly ran out of strength and sank to the bottom of the water with unwilling eyes.

Before losing consciousness, the little white dog seemed to see a figure jump into the water and swim towards him. Then he felt himself being hugged and floated to the surface.

"I'm saved..." Before the little white dog could even see who had saved it, it had already fainted from exhaustion.

Hao Chen looked at the wet little white dog in front of him and suddenly felt that the little white dog looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

Hao Chen racked his brains but couldn't remember recognizing the white puppy.

"But this little white dog is really cute, I'll keep him by my side."

Hao Chen liked the little white dog more and more as he looked at it, but the most important thing right now was to wake it up first, lest it really fall asleep and never wake up again, which would be quite amusing.

Looking at the little white dog's round belly, Hao Chen thought to himself, "It probably drank too much water. Let him vomit it out first."

"I remember that gently pressing on the stomach can make a drowning person vomit water?"

With his limited medical knowledge, Hao Chen turned the little white dog over and gently pressed its belly.

"Ugh~"

Before long, the little white dog opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of water. Seeing that it was effective, Hao Chen pressed the little white dog's belly even harder.

The little white dog vomited up all the water in its stomach, but it still didn't wake up. Even when Hao Chen pressed on its heart and performed CPR, the little white dog still didn't wake up.

"What happened? Could it be dead?" Hao Chen looked at the still unconscious little white dog with a grim expression. This was his cherished pet, and he couldn't let it die like this.

"How about we try artificial respiration?"

The thought of giving his first kiss to a dog, even if the dog was cute and he liked it, still made Hao Chen feel a little uneasy.

But the next moment, Hao Chen realized that he didn't seem to have a first kiss. Back at the Deer Man Shop, it seemed that he had left it on Tianlu or the Four-Faced Beast.

"Since you didn't have your first kiss, that's okay. Little Xiu, I'm here."

Hao Chen had no idea that while he was still thinking about who he would give his first kiss to, the little white dog woke up and was staring at Hao Chen, his savior, with its big, watery eyes.

What terrified the little white dog was that the beast that had saved his life was now leaning down and pouting, as if it wanted to kiss him.

"Ouch~"

The little white dog was startled and unleashed a powerful double kick, its hind legs striking Hao Chen's chin. Using the recoil, it rolled backward.

When Hao Chen was kicked in the chin by the little white dog, he unfortunately bit his tongue, and a sharp pain shot straight to his head.

"Ouch~" Hao Chen covered his mouth and jumped around in pain, seemingly trying to relieve the pain.

Just as his tongue finally stopped hurting and he was about to teach the culprit a lesson, he saw the little white dog sitting in front of Haochen, its head hanging low, looking very depressed, its eyes filled with panic and tension.

"Yes, I'm sorry! Are you still in pain?"

"You... sigh, never mind, it's good that you're alright."

Hao Chen originally wanted to teach the little white dog a lesson, but seeing its pitiful appearance, he immediately softened and thought to himself that this little dog was too cute, almost as cute as Tian Lu, so he forgave it.

"My name is Haochen. What's your name? How did you fall into the water?"

"Woof, my name is Xiaobai, thank you for saving me." The little white dog happily circled around Haochen and took the opportunity to sniff Haochen's butt, as if to remember his scent.

"Uh, you don't have to thank me like that!!!" Although Hao Chen knew that canines would sniff butts, he still couldn't accept it when it happened to him.
