As a veteran anime watcher, how could Su Yun not recognize the woman before him, who looked as gentle as water?
She was the mother of the original Tang San—and the previous generation's Blue Silver Emperor!
How had she jumped out of my Martial Soul?
At that thought, a conjecture suddenly surfaced in Su Yun's mind.
Could it be...
Ah Yin had become my Martial Soul?
The moment the conjecture appeared in his mind, Su Yun himself confirmed it.
That's right!
It was very likely!
Otherwise, how could the Blue Silver Emperor, normally passed down through bloodlines, have become his Martial Soul?
The more Su Yun thought about it, the more convinced he was that his guess was right.
This filled him with delight.
But once he had figured that out, another question began to weigh on his mind.
Since Ah Yin had become my Martial Soul, why hadn't her soul faded away until only a sliver of consciousness remained, as it had in the original story?
Instead, she could leave the Blue Silver Emperor in the form of a soul apparition.
And even appear right in front of me?
Su Yun couldn't figure it out.
While he was puzzling over it,
Ah Yin, who had suddenly appeared in the bedroom, couldn't help giggling at his panicked expression.
Sure enough, she'd come out too abruptly.
She'd scared the little boy.
"Don't be afraid, little one."
"Your big sister isn't a bad person."
Ah Yin walked over and sat beside Su Yun, a faint smile on her face.
She reached out with her ethereal hand and stroked Su Yun's cheek.
Though he couldn't feel Ah Yin's touch, just the sound of her gentle, sweet voice
was enough to bring Su Yun back from his thoughts.
As he stared at Ah Yin's breathtaking face, no more than a hand's breadth away,
a whole host of legendary men came to mind.
Mengde!
Aman!
The Chancellor!
At that moment,
Su Yun finally understood what people meant by the lingering influence of Wei Wu!
What Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, and Xiao Wu...
In front of a woman like this, auntie-level and beyond, they didn't stand a chance.
But realizing that Ah Yin was still watching him, Su Yun nervously swallowed.
Then he asked, pretending to be 'afraid,' "Big sister, who are you?"
"Why are you inside my Martial Soul?"
Ah Yin had anticipated Su Yun's questions.
She quickly told him about her current state and the story of her past.
Su Yun, of course, kept up the act of a six-year-old child, reacting in various ways as he listened to Ah Yin's story.
"So that means Tang San and Uncle Tang from our village are your son and husband, big sister?"
When Ah Yin finished her story, Su Yun blinked and asked.
Ah Yin nodded slightly.
But her expression seemed a little strange.
"That's great!"
"Then I'll take you to see them now!"
Su Yun hadn't noticed that anything was off about Ah Yin's expression and voiced another thought befitting a six-year-old.
"No."
Ah Yin shook her head.
"Huh?"
"Why not?"
Su Yun scratched the back of his head, puzzled.
By all rights,
her soul had awakened.
Given Ah Yin's personality in the original story and her love for her husband and child, why wouldn't she want to see them?
Could this Ah Yin in front of him be fake?
Seeing Su Yun's bewildered expression, Ah Yin explained:
"Have you forgotten? Only you can see me."
"Even if you tell them I'm here, they won't be able to see me, so they probably won't believe you."
That was what Ah Yin said, but in truth, she didn't want to alert them.
From the contents of last night's video, Ah Yin could tell that the 'Tang San' in it knew very little about her.
If Su Yun told 'Tang San' she was here, it might put him on guard.
After a night of thought, Ah Yin had already come up with a plan.
She would have Su Yun find 'Tang San' first, then gradually approach until he was within a hundred meters of him.
After all, in her current soul state, her maximum range of movement was only a hundred meters.
Only after she figured out whether the 'Tang San' in the village was truly her child could she decide what to do next.
"Is there anything I can do to help you now?"
Su Yun could accept Ah Yin's explanation, so he asked another question.
"How about this? Could you take me to see my son, Tang San?"
"You don't need to get too close. I just want to watch him from a distance."
Ah Yin knew that 'Tang San' had many strange and unusual techniques.
He even wanted to create a weapon called a "Hidden Weapon"!
Keeping Su Yun at a safe distance
was the best choice for both him and her.
Su Yun naturally didn't refuse Ah Yin's request. He immediately smiled and nodded. "Of course!"
Then he ran out of the room.
Ah Yin wanted to see 'Tang San' alone first.
That happened to suit Su Yun just fine.
As everyone knew,
although the current 'Tang San' had the original Tang San's body and had even awakened Twin Martial Souls,
the soul inside him had long since been replaced by Tang San of the otherworldly Tang Sect!
In other words,
the current 'Tang San' couldn't possibly be considered Ah Yin's real child!
Just imagine:
What if, in the original story, Ah Yin learned that the 'Tang San' before her wasn't truly her child,
but an outsider who had taken over his body?
