Yu Xiaogang, Listen to Me Say Thank You
After receiving some treatment from Ah Yin, Tang Hao gently patted Ah Yin hand to indicate that he was recovered. Leaving Ah Yin's embrace, he struggled to his feet and assured his Tang Xiao:
"Brother! I told you, anyone who wants to hurt Ah Yin must step over my dead body!"
Tang Hao assured Tang Xiao, then coughed a few times, clutching his chest. Clearly, Yun Lan's casual attack was not so easy to withstand. Seeing her beloved in so much pain, Ah Yin worriedly stepped forward to support Tang Hao, helping him catch his breath and continuing to use her Soul Skill to heal him.
"Ah Hao! You're suffering from a backlash from your Martial Soul right now, so don't push yourself. Don't be so reckless next time; you worried me so much just now!"
Looking at the man before her, Ah Yin felt a warm glow in her heart, filled with love and protectiveness. Her eyes were filled with Tang Hao's image. Tang Xiao, seeing his younger brother and his beloved so affectionately embracing each other, felt a lump in his throat. He turned his back to Tang Hao and said:
"Tang Hao, you must protect Ah Yin well, and you can't break your promise! I've already received a message from the Clear Sky Sect. The sect needs to take charge of the overall situation, so I'm going back this time! You can return to the Clear Sky Sect whenever you've had enough of your travels!"
"Thank you, brother."
Upon hearing that it was a message from the sect Tang Hao knew it was about choosing the next sect leader. The two brothers were the most outstanding of this generation, and Tang Hao had chosen to give up the position of sect leader for love. However, Tang Hao did so willingly and also thanked his brother Tang Xiao him and Ah Yin to be together.
Tang Xiao meant that he needed to return to the sect to take charge of the overall situation and also to provide cover for Tang Hao. After all, giving up the position of the Clear Sky Sect for a woman would cause problems later on, and Tang Xiao needed to deal with the gossip in the sect.
Tang Xiao nodded and hummed in agreement, suppressing his disappointment. Then, in a solemn and respectful tone, he spoke to Yun Lan, who had been watching him for a long time:
"Thank you for showing mercy, sir. On behalf of my brother, I apologize for his reckless actions."
After Tang Xiao finished speaking, he clasped his hands and bowed in apology. After all, it was only right to bow down and admit mistakes to a strong person. Moreover, it was his younger brother who was in the wrong first and Tang Hao was the one who started the fight. As the older brother, he could only take the blame and hoped that he would let him off the hook for the sake of the Clear Sky Sect.
"May I ask your name, sir? Which sect do you belong to? After all, you seemed to recognize us brothers from the Clear Sky Sect when you spoke!"
Tang Xiao said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "My own brother was beaten up, so I need to know who did it! Otherwise, I won't know who to turn to for revenge."
Yun Lan watched a dramatic love triangle unfold from the sidelines. Was this what Sister Deep Blue meant by "love-struck"? But why did she feel a flutter in her heart? She had never felt this way before. Perhaps it was because the collective consciousness of the Blue Silver Grass had evolved once!
Upon hearing Tang Xiao's question, Yun Lan thought of promoting the Creator! After all, his Creator Sect was just starting out and was still unknown. Yun Lan imagined that the Creator would surely appreciate everything she, Yun Lan, had done for him.
If Yu Xiaogang were here, he would definitely listen to me. Thank you! Yu Xiaogang was planning to secretly develop his strength, but all this happened, bringing him directly into the Clear Sky Sect's sights and even giving Tang Hao a severe beating. He, Yu Xiaogang, has to take the blame for everything!
Yun Lan began to mimic Xiao Zhan's usual arrogant tone at the academy, saying:
"My name is Yun Lan, the collective consciousness of the Blue Silver Grass Soul Beast, and also the new master of Blue Silver Grass. My creator's sect is Dragon Gate, and he was also the first sect master. I believe that the name of my creator will resound throughout the entire Douluo Continent!"
Yun Lan probably doesn't interact with many people, which is why Yu Xiaogang created her with a somewhat naive and clueless personality. She can only imitate Xiao Zhan's usual arrogant and boastful behavior.
Tang Xiao had never heard of the Dragon Gate before. Could it be a hidden sect? But that didn't make sense! Yun Lan said her creator was the first sect leader, meaning his brother had been beaten up for nothing! It couldn't be a case of the strong bullying the weak! Tang Xiao's lips twitched. At the very least, they definitely couldn't afford to offend this young lady. The title "Lord of Blue Silver Grass" made him feel awkward. Yun Lan was strong, but seemed to lack social skills. However, Ah Yin said this person seemed to be looking for her, so Tang Xiao decided to help probe Yun Lan's purpose and continued, "Senior Yun Lan, may I ask your creator's name? And what business do you have with our Ah Yin? After all, the misunderstanding has been cleared up now."
Yun Lan tilted her head in confusion, but still explained to the people in front of her:
"My creator's name is Yu Xiaogang, born into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the number one person in the entire continent in terms of theoretical knowledge. I came to find Ah Yin for the sake of the Blue Silver Grass Clan, after all, now Ah Yin is the only one left with the Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline. I want to prepare for the Blue Silver Grass Clan."
"Yu Xiaogang? Isn't he just a useless person with only Innate Half Level Soul Power? Ah! Sorry, I was just being blunt!"
Upon hearing Yun Lan's explanation, which suggested he was Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, Tang Hao, that brainless idiot, blurted out something. When Yun Lan heard Tang Hao, this fool, speak rudely to Yu Xiaogang, she used her immense Mental Power to suppress him, causing Tang Hao to struggle to stand and almost kneel on the ground.
"Hmph! Watch your mouth next time! You look just like one of my creator's apprentices!"
Yun Lan was furious and punished Tang Hao for his impolite remarks. If this weren't the original story Tang San's father would have already dealt with him severely.
Yun Lan sensed an unusual fluctuation of Mental Power as soon as she came into contact with Tang Hao and Ah Yin. It was probably the Mental Power guidance that Deep Blue had mentioned, a divine arrangement that led those targeted by the god step by step to where He needed them.
Yun Lan looked at Tang Hao with the same eyes one would give a pitiful puppy. This guy, whose current behavior was comparable to Wang Dachui, must have gone through something to become the unkempt and useless man from the original story.
Perhaps he was targeted when he went to the Slaughter City to undergo the Asura God Trial? Now he has only been marked by the God of Asura in the Divine Realm. Yun Lan has now gathered more than half of the Blue Silver Grass of the Douluo Continent, and his Mental Power is extremely vast.
As Yun Lan approached Tang Hao and Ah Yin, she could sense the murderous aura emanating from the depths of their Body and Soul. Sure enough, Sister Deep Blue was right; none of the Douluo God had clean hands! Yun Lan floated closer to Ah Yin and casually unleashed a burst of life Soul Power. Tang Hao hadn't even reacted when he saw Yun Lan unleash a burst of Soul Power at him. He was prepared to accept punishment for his earlier disrespectful words, so he closed his eyes and gritted his teeth.
However, the pain Tang Hao had imagined did not come. Yun Lan casually used a wisp of Soul Power to instantly heal the injuries caused by the Martial Soul vibration and the backlash from the Ring Detonation. This left Tang Hao in disbelief. Could this healing and support ability really be used by Blue Silver Grass?
Yun Lan didn't even bother to glance at Tang Hao. She floated in front of Ah Yin, extended her left hand, and summoned a phantom golden- Blue Silver tree. The leaves on it seemed to be formed from countless Blue Silver Grass. Ah Yin felt that the golden- Blue Silver tree in front of her was radiating a sense of home, as if Mother Earth was calling her children home.
"Ah Yin! Come! Return to the Blue Silver Grass Sea of Consciousness, that is the true home of our Blue Silver Grass Clan. It will open its arms to all Plant Soul Beast! This is the future of us Plant Soul Beast!"
Yun Lan looked at Ah Yin with great anticipation, waiting for her to make a choice: would she accept Yun Lan's kind invitation to stay by Tang San's side in order to save her life, or would she accept the fate arranged by the God of Asura?
This was a test of the gods, and also an instruction from Sister Deep Blue to Yun Lan. It was to test the gods' control over the Douluo Continent. The fact that nothing happened this time meant that the gods didn't control the Douluo Continent at all times, and that they weren't omnipotent, but merely powerful cultivators with the authority to govern the rules.
The god Yun Lan learned about from the Deep Blue Database was someone comparable to a Great Luo Golden Immortal who could see through the River of Fate, rather than a pitiful creature like the one in the original Douluo Continent who was merely a rule-maker and bound by divine authority.
What do you guys think? How about changing Qian Renxue's mother? Let's go straight for an original character.
I'm also worried that if I get too carried away with writing about escape rooms, it will attract the attention of the censors, so I've been organizing the outline recently.
