Gu Rong sat cross-legged in the secret chamber, spatial ripples undulating around him like waves.

The Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone stripped from Tang Hao's severed leg had completely fused with his right leg, making his aura increasingly profound.

"Phew—"

Gu Rong slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing through them.

The secret chamber door opened, and Han Yu walked in at an unhurried pace.

"Grandfather, how does it feel?"

"Not bad."

Gu Rong rose to his feet and flexed his right leg.

"This Soul Bone gave me a soul skill called Void Step. Short-range teleportation has become much more effortless.

Tell me, you didn't come all this way just to ask about that, did you?"

Han Yu sat in a chair beside him, lightly tapping the armrest with his fingers as he lowered his voice.

"Grandfather, the Soul Bone stripped from Tang Hao's severed leg was only an ordinary Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone.

But I also know the whereabouts of another Soul Bone—and it's a hundred-thousand-year one."

Gu Rong's pupils suddenly contracted, and even his breathing quickened.

"A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone?

Where?"

"At the Back Mountain of Holy Soul Village, in a cave behind the waterfall."

Han Yu's gaze remained calm.

"What Tang Hao hid there is a relic left behind by his wife, Ah Yin:

the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone."

"The Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone..."

Gu Rong drew a sharp breath, then abruptly rose to his feet.

"What are we waiting for?

Let's go!"

"Don't be hasty, Grandfather."

Han Yu raised a hand in a calming gesture.

"Tang Hao left a restriction in that cave, but with your current mastery of space, it shouldn't be difficult to break."

Gu Rong snorted, his eyes full of disdain.

"A restriction set by a crippled man with severe injuries thinks it can stop me?

Yu'er, just wait here while I bring the item back."

"No, I'll go with you."

Han Yu stood up, a faint smile curling his lips.

"A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone is no trivial matter. If anything happens, I can at least keep watch for you."

Han Yu was merely saying that casually.

His main concern was that Gu Rong might spare Ah Yin.

In the original story, Ah Yin regained her human form after cultivating at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for several years.

That meant she had returned to a hundred thousand years of cultivation!

And Han Yu reckoned that

after Ah Yin's sacrifice, her memories had vanished completely.

That seed she left behind at most contained a few fragments of Ah Yin's original memories.

He could test whether Ah Yin retained memories of her previous life after cultivating again.

If she did, he could make preparations in advance and kill her once she returned to a hundred thousand years of cultivation.

He could obtain another Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and another Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.

This was a deal with guaranteed profit and no risk!

Seeing Han Yu's confident expression, Gu Rong burst into laughter.

"Good!

Then let's go!

I'd like to see what other treasures that homeless cur Tang Hao has hidden away!"

He slashed through the air with five fingers, instantly tearing open a pitch-black spatial rift.

"Hold on tight."

Gu Rong grabbed Han Yu by the shoulder, and the two stepped into the rift together.

The Spatial Shuttle took only a few breaths.

Back Mountain of Holy Soul Village, before the waterfall.

A black rift appeared out of thin air. Gu Rong and Han Yu stepped out one after the other, landing steadily atop a damp boulder.

The waterfall roared, mist filling the air.

Gu Rong closed his eyes, his spatial perception spreading outward like spilled mercury.

A moment later, he opened his eyes and pointed toward the middle of the waterfall.

"Found it.

There's a cave entrance behind the curtain of water, about three meters deep. There's a faint Soul Power fluctuation inside.

It should be the restriction Tang Hao set."

Han Yu nodded.

"Then I'll have to trouble you to take me through, Grandfather."

Gu Rong snorted and tore open the void again with his palm.

Their bodies were enveloped in spatial power. They passed directly through the curtain of water and landed steadily at the cave entrance.

The cave was not large. A stone platform stood against the cave wall.

An iron box rested atop it.

"That's it?"

Gu Rong stepped forward and lightly touched the markings with his fingertips. A fierce rebound of Soul Power instantly struck at him.

His brows rose as spatial power surged forth, directly suppressing the backlash.

The markings cracked sharply and shattered completely.

Gu Rong lifted the lid of the wooden box in one motion.

An incomparably rich aura of life rushed toward them. Resting quietly inside the box was a right leg bone that shone a lustrous blue, its veins as distinct as blood vessels.

The warm luster unique to a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone shone especially brightly within the dark cave.

"What pure Blue Silver Grass aura..."

Gu Rong reached out and took the Soul Bone, his eyes brimming with delight.

"A hundred thousand years—it truly is a hundred thousand years!

That useless Tang Hao guarded such a treasure but didn't dare use it. What a waste!"

Han Yu looked at the Soul Bone with an indifferent expression.

"It wasn't that he didn't dare use it. He couldn't bear to.

It was the only relic his wife left behind, and he wanted to save it for his son, Tang San.

Unfortunately, it belongs to us now."

Although Tang Hao had already been fully equipped with Soul Bones at the time,

if he had been ruthless enough,

he could have directly replaced his original right leg bone with the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

That way, relying on the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone,

the injuries in Tang Hao's body could have healed with ease.

Gu Rong stored the Soul Bone in his storage space and dusted off his hands.

"Let's go. We'll talk after we get back.

This place may be remote, but if the commotion draws anyone here, it'll only bring needless trouble."

"Grandfather is right."

Han Yu smiled faintly and turned to look at the waterfall outside the cave.

Gu Rong tore open space once again, and the two entered in single file.

After returning from Holy Soul Village, Han Yu entered seclusion in the secret chamber and focused on absorbing the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

Gu Rong personally guarded the door, never leaving even a step.

The next morning, the secret chamber door slowly opened.

Han Yu stepped out. The fluctuations of Soul Power around him were clearly a level more substantial than before, and even his footsteps carried a hint of lightness.

"How was it?"

Gu Rong immediately stepped forward.

"Level sixty."

Han Yu's lips curled upward.

"That Soul Bone gave me two soul skills. One is Wildfire Unending, which can forcibly preserve life even in a near-death state and can even regrow flesh upon bones. Its vitality is practically monstrous.

The second soul skill is a domain-type skill: the Blue Silver Domain!"

Gu Rong was overjoyed upon hearing this and heavily patted Han Yu's shoulder.

"Good!

As expected of Gu Rong's grandson!

Come on, Grandfather will take you to the Star Dou Forest right now and hunt you a top-tier sixth Spirit Ring!"

The two chatted and laughed as they headed toward the residence gates.

The gates had barely opened when they saw several figures blocking the foot of the stairs.

At the front stood Ning Rongrong. Behind her were Tang San, Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu.

The Shrek Seven Devils were all present.

The moment Han Yu saw Xiao Wu, he nearly failed to keep his expression under control.

She had come right to his door?

Interesting!

Originally, Han Yu did not have much of an impression of Xiao Wu.

But since Xiao Wu had delivered herself to him, Han Yu saw no reason to refuse!

This was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone delivered right to his doorstep.

Tang Hao was nothing more than a lame cripple now.

He could not even beat Han Yu himself, so Han Yu did not care about any possible retaliation from him.

Ning Rongrong wore a goose-yellow dress today, with exquisite makeup. She had clearly dressed up deliberately.

The instant she saw Gu Rong, her eyes reddened, and she spoke in a soft, coquettish voice.

"Grandpa Bone, Rongrong came to see you."
