[Wu Xing: The Blue Silver Empress, also known as Ah Yin, is the name she gave herself after transforming into human form.]
[Wu Xing: Her true form is the sovereign of all Blue Silver Grass. You should already know this from the Chat Group annotations, so I won't go into too much detail.]
[Wu Xing: But do you know why Blue Silver Grass is the most common and abundant vegetation on the Douluo Continent?]
[Ning Rongrong: Why is that, Brother Wu Xing?]
Ning Rongrong, that little witch, was the best at providing emotional value. While the other women were still deep in thought over Wu Xing's words, she was the first to jump in and play along.
Seeing this, the others felt a twinge of jealousy; her reaction was simply too fast, instantly maximizing the sense of participation and experience for the Group Master.
Wu Xing secretly gave the little witch a thumbs-up and continued his narrative.
[Wu Xing: Because they possess an innate racial talent that can be called heaven-defying: "Wildfires cannot destroy them; they grow again with the spring breeze."]
[Wu Xing: This means that Blue Silver Grass has immense vitality. Even if the body is destroyed, as long as a single root or seed remains, it can take root and revive. This is why Blue Silver Grass is the most common vegetation in your world—you can find it anywhere.]
[Wu Xing: And as the sovereign of the Blue Silver Grass, her abilities are even more formidable.]
[Wu Xing: When other soul beasts perform a sacrifice, it is a true death. But the Blue Silver Empress is different; her powerful vitality prevents her from dying, allowing her to revert into a blade of grass.]
[Wu Xing: As long as she is given time to recover and enough energy and nutrients to absorb, she will flourish once more, and returning to human form is not a difficult task.]
[Ning Rongrong: Wow, that's amazing! I never imagined Sister Ah Yin had such a terrifying ability.]
[Ning Shui Fei Luan: Indeed. No wonder that even after I cleared the Blue Silver Grass away, it would grow back in the courtyard after a while.]
[Xiao Wu: Yeah, yeah! Before we Soft Bone Rabbits transformed, we often ate Blue Silver Grass, but we could never finish it all—in fact, there was always more.]
[Ah Yin: ...]
[Wu Xing: ...]
Looking at the replies from the women, Ah Yin felt somewhat offended.
As for Wu Xing, the corners of his mouth twitched violently. Is your focus skewed all the way to the ends of the earth?!
I'm here explaining the talent of the Blue Silver Empress to set up the foreshadowing for Tang Hao's conspiracy, and you lot—one talks about weeding, the other talks about eating grass?
[Wu Xing: Stop, stop! Who told you to focus on that? The point I'm making is the immortality ability Ah Yin possesses!]
Wu Xing looked helpless. As a modern person, he couldn't quite keep up with the thought processes of these goddesses. He was trying to provide some hardcore exposition, and they had forcibly steered it off course.
[Ning Rongrong: Hehe, Brother Wu Xing, we were wrong. Please continue, we promise to listen carefully.]
[Xiao Wu: Hehe.]
Seeing the Chat Group return to normal, Wu Xing began his explanation again.
[Wu Xing: Alright, now that I've finished explaining the talent of the Blue Silver clan, let's talk about the man named Tang Hao.]
[Wu Xing: Tang Hao was a once-in-a-century genius of the Clear Sky Sect, known alongside his brother Tang Xiao as the "Twin Stars of the Clear Sky."]
[Wu Xing: In his youth, by a stroke of fate, he met Ah Yin, who had transformed into a human. Because they spent so much time together, they slowly developed feelings for each other, eventually becoming husband and wife.]
[Wu Xing: However, good times don't last. Not long after she became pregnant, she was targeted by the Martial Soul Hall and hunted down by the former Pontiff, Qian Xunji, leading a group of Titled Douluo.]
[Xiao Wu: Despicable Martial Soul Hall, despicable Qian Xunji, and that despicable Bibi Dong! All they know is how to plunder the hundred-thousand-year soul rings and bones of us soul beasts!]
[Xue Qinghe: ...]
[Bibi Dong: ..., Soul masters hunting soul beasts to obtain soul rings is the fundamental law of survival on this continent. Little rabbit, don't keep bringing this up.]
[Xiao Wu: Hmph, I'll say it, I'll say it! What are you going to do about it?]
Watching the Chat Group descend into chaos, Wu Xing felt his forehead vein throb again.
[Wu Xing: Aren't you curious? Why did Tang Hao travel the human world with Ah Yin for so many years without exposing her identity, only to be hunted by the Martial Soul Hall right when she was pregnant and at her weakest after giving birth?]
As soon as these words were spoken, the noisy group fell silent. Ah Yin, who had been quietly listening and lost in memory, was jolted awake, a faint sense of unease rising in her heart.
[Ning Rongrong: Brother Wu Xing, now that you put it that way, it does feel wrong. Could there be some hidden truth behind this?]
[Xue Qinghe: Based on the Group Master's description, it is indeed contrary to common sense.]
[Ning Shui Fei Luan: Normally, for a pregnant woman—especially one nearing labor—Tang Hao should have taken Ah Yin back to the sect to recuperate, not wandered around.]
[Nine-Tailed Sky Fox: Exactly. That way, even if Ah Yin's identity were exposed, only the Clear Sky Sect would know. There is no way the Martial Soul Hall would have received the information.]
[Xiao Wu: "Your" Martial Soul Hall? Nine-Tailed Sky Fox, you really are from the Martial Soul Hall! No wonder you're always licking Bibi Dong's boots.]
[Nine-Tailed Sky Fox: ...]
Watching the group members analyze the situation one by one, Ah Yin's heart tightened with anxiety. Her emerald leaves curled up involuntarily, and her roots trembled slightly in the soil.
She hadn't thought about it in detail before, assuming it was just bad luck that her identity was discovered by the Martial Soul Hall. But now, every word in the group hit her heart like a hammer.
Yet, she loved Tang Hao deeply and could not believe he would do such a thing to her.
[Wu Xing: That's right. It was Tang Hao who intentionally leaked Ah Yin's identity to the Martial Soul Hall.]
[Ning Rongrong: Ah? Brother Wu Xing, why would he do that?]
[Ning Shui Fei Luan: It must have been for the soul ring and soul bone. There's no need to explain how tempting a hundred-thousand-year soul ring and bone are to a soul master.]
[Xiao Wu: This man named Tang Hao is too shameless! Sister Ah Yin trusted him so much, married him, and even bore his child. To think he would sell out his own wife after obtaining the Blue Silver Empress bloodline!]
[Ah Rou: A person like that is even more disgusting and nauseating than Bibi Dong. To commit such an unconscionable act just to obtain his own wife's soul ring and bone!]
[Bibi Dong: No, do you two mother and daughter really have to make things difficult for this Pope? I have already retreated time and again; do you truly think this Pope has no temper?]
Bibi Dong was currently very angry, yet also incredibly stifled; this mother-daughter pair always dragged her out for public execution for no reason.
Those who didn't know the truth would think she had committed some act that incited the wrath of heaven and men.
If she had truly done such things, she would have nothing to say, but wasn't hunting soul beasts a matter of natural law? How could this be blamed on her?
Compared to Bibi Dong's indignation, Ah Yin's mood at this moment had plummeted to the bottom of the abyss.
The Group Master's words—that it was Tang Hao who leaked the information to Martial Soul Hall—struck heavily against her mind, leaving her unable to accept or believe it.
She was unwilling to believe Tang Hao was that kind of person, and even less willing to think in that direction; trembling with her roots and leaves, she hesitated for a long time before she finally couldn't help but issue a rebuttal...
