Background / History
Ah Yin is identified as the Blue Silver Emperor and as Tang San's mother in the original story. Lin Xuan encounters her decades before that story's main plot begins. 77
Having only taken human form a few years earlier, Ah Yin remains in her juvenile stage and has relatively low cultivation. She hides her Soul Beast identity because she fears humans may harm her for a spirit ring; the powerful Blue Silver Grass around her has protected her from hunters and hostile spirit beasts. 78
When she first meets Lin Xuan, Ah Yin pretends to have fainted and fabricates a story about fleeing enemies. Her real goal is to learn about the human world through him, using the shared vision of nearby Blue Silver Grass to watch him beforehand. 78
Ah Yin helps Lin Xuan build a wooden cabin in the Star Dou Great Forest, then gradually forms a close bond with him through shared meals, games, cultivation, and conversations about human society. She declares that they are family and later agrees to leave the forest with him. 78 79 85 92
