Ah Yin Shattered, Was Tang Hao Always Acting Her?

As she thought about it, Xiao Wu's eyes reddened. How wonderful would it be if her mother could be resurrected?

Then, Xiao Wu looked at the diary before her and wondered, did the rewards this thing gave include resurrection?

Unconsciously, a faint sense of anticipation toward the system arose in Xiao Wu's heart.

For that reason, she had to go to the Star Luo Empire. Only by getting close to Dai Yichen would she have more opportunities.

And only by staying near Dai Yichen could she raise her strength more quickly.

However, there was one thing she was worried about. Dai Yichen knew her identity—would he be interested in her Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone?

If he really was interested, then wouldn't approaching him of her own accord be like a rabbit walking into a tiger's jaws?

But then, a trace of doubt arose in Ah Yin's heart. Why was Tang Hao unwilling to let her resurrect sooner?

Would her early resurrection have some negative effect on him?

And the next part of Dai Yichen's diary directly cleared up her current doubts.

The reason Tang Hao had not brought Ah Yin back to the Blue Silver Holy Land was likely because he feared that, through the energy she had left behind there, she would rapidly increase her cultivation. That was probably something he did not want to see.

Tang Hao might have appeared to love Ah Yin deeply, but in reality, he was a complete sect slave. Six years ago, because of him, Spirit Hall had pressured the Clear Sky Sect, resulting in his father being angered to death. The Clear Sky Sect had also sealed its gates and gone into seclusion because of it.

Tang Hao believed that he had caused his father's death and forced the Clear Sky Sect to seal its gates. He thought himself guilty, which was why he had secluded himself in Holy Soul Village and drowned his sorrows in drink every day.

And Ah Yin foolishly believed that Tang Hao had become like this entirely because she had sacrificed herself. Yet she had never considered that, when she was hunted by Qian Xunji, the former Pope of Spirit Hall, and a group of powerful experts, she had already entered the mature stage and completely become human. Even Titled Douluo could not tell that she had once been a 100,000 Year Soul Beast Transformation.

So the question was, how had Spirit Hall learned that Ah Yin was a 100,000 Year Soul Beast Transformation who was rebuilding her cultivation? The only person who could have known that Ah Yin's true form was a 100,000 Year Soul Beast was Tang Hao. Even Tang Xiao, who had traveled and trained alongside Tang Hao back then, could not possibly have known.

Although the two were known as the Clear Sky Twins, Tang Xiao was considerably older than Tang Hao. And Ah Yin had ultimately fallen for Tang Hao, so Tang Xiao could only bless them before returning alone to the Clear Sky Sect.

In the end, Tang Hao and Ah Yin got together as they wished. Although Ah Yin possessed a hundred thousand years of cultivation, she was simple and innocent by nature. She did not understand the treachery of human society, nor did she know what Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings and Soul Bones meant to a Soul Master.

No—perhaps Ah Yin did know, yet she still chose to reveal her identity to Tang Hao, overestimating her place in his heart. After Tang Hao learned of Ah Yin's identity, he had likely already begun calculating how to obtain her Soul Ring Soul Bone to the greatest extent possible without ruining his good reputation across the continent.

When Tang Hao was being hunted by Spirit Hall, his Soul Power had already reached the peak of rank eighty-nine. By sheer coincidence, he broke through to rank ninety during the pursuit. In the end, seeing that the three of them likely could not escape, Ah Yin chose without hesitation to sacrifice herself for the man she loved!

After Tang Hao obtained his ninth Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, his strength surged instantly. He directly unleashed Ring Detonation and the Great Sumeru Hammer, defeating Qian Xunji and the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo, three Titled Douluo, in one stroke before escaping alive.

For someone who had just broken through to Titled Douluo to defeat three rank ninety-five Titled Douluo powerhouses—and even severely injure Qian Xunji before fleeing—I found that a little absurd. A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring could at most raise Tang Hao to the peak of rank ninety-three. Even with Ring Detonation and the Great Sumeru Hammer, it should have been impossible for his strength to rise to rank ninety-six.

Qian Xunji's Martial Soul was the top-tier Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, while the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo were not weak either. They could even use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, the Two Extremes Stillness Domain. I truly could not figure out how Tang Hao had managed to escape.

Ah Yin had also been foolish back then. As the old saying went, pregnancy made women foolish for three years—and there was a reason for that. Ah Yin had been pregnant at the time. Forget taking her to live in seclusion in some small town or returning to the Blue Silver Holy Land to recuperate, Tang Hao had actually taken her wandering everywhere. If there was nothing wrong with Tang Hao, I wouldn't believe it.

And if Tang Hao had truly been depressed and done nothing but drink himself senseless during these six years, it would have been impossible for him to later possess the strength of rank ninety-five. Although he had escaped back then, he had suffered serious injuries as well. Angel power left behind by Qian Xunji remained within his body, and whenever he used his full strength, it would aggravate his old wounds.

Yet even so, he had risen from the peak of rank ninety-three to rank ninety-five. Was that really something a dispirited, slovenly middle-aged man could accomplish?

Only Ah Yin, a sheltered, naïve girl blinded by love, would believe Tang Hao completely without giving it a second thought.

If Ah Yin learned the truth... no, with Ah Yin's brain, even if I told her all this, she probably would not believe it. After all, there was no concrete evidence for any of it. It was merely my own speculation.

Ah Yin's face turned several shades paler. With her current strength, she truly could not tell what rank Tang Hao's Soul Power was at.

If what Dai Yichen said was true, did that not mean Tang Hao had been acting in front of her all these years?

Had he merely treated her as a tool?

One had to know that after advancing to Titled Douluo, raising one's rank was far from easy. Every single rank took at least decades.

Tang Hao also carried old injuries, which would inevitably affect his cultivation. Yet even so, he had still made such enormous progress. How exactly had he done it?!

At that moment, Ah Yin felt as though the sky had completely collapsed. She felt as if... she could no longer trust humans.

Heaven Dou Empire, the Crown Prince's study.

Qian Renxue looked at the diary before her, her expression shifting uncertainly. So it really had been Tang Hao who seriously injured her father back then, causing him to die of excessive injuries after returning to Spirit Hall.

But now that she knew her enemy was in Holy Soul Village, there was nothing she could do. That made her utterly unwilling to accept it!

In contrast to Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong let out a sigh of relief. When Dai Yichen had just mentioned the events of six years ago, her heart had leapt into her throat!

And when he mentioned Tang Hao severely injuring Qian Xunji, she became even more nervous, afraid Dai Yichen would continue writing along that line. If he did, Qian Xunji's true cause of death might very well be exposed!
