Tang San: Am I Not a Pure-blooded Human?

Tang San was completely stunned after hearing the Blue Silver King's account.

He had never in his wildest dreams imagined that his mother was actually a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast who had transformed into a human.

Did that not mean that half of the blood flowing through his veins was that of a soul beast?

Was he not even a complete human being!?

However, he quickly suppressed these thoughts, which he felt were incredibly unfilial. Tang San, oh Tang San, for all your two lifetimes of experience, to think you would actually feel repulsed by your own mother's identity.

Have you forgotten the simple truth that your body, hair, and skin are all gifts from your parents?

Whether Mother was human or a hundred-thousand-year-old transformed soul beast, she is still the mother of this lifetime.

Tang San's gaze turned firm once more. "Blue Silver King, can you tell me why my mother suddenly chose to transform into a human? And what is this 'sacrifice'? Why would my mother sacrifice herself for my father? Also, what do you mean when you say my mother's life force hasn't vanished?"

Tang San instinctively felt that something was wrong, but his current knowledge of the Douluo Continent was still far too limited.

"Master, do you know anything about this?"

If it could be proven that his mother was truly still alive in this world, then even if he had to exhaust every possible means, he would restore her to her former state!

"San, listen to what the Blue Silver King has to say first. Once he is finished, I will tell you the information I have gathered, and you can judge the rights and wrongs for yourself."

"You are a clever child; I believe in you."

"Understood!"

The Blue Silver King then slowly revealed some of the secrets of the Blue Silver Grass clan to Tang San. "My Emperor, every soul beast faces a heavenly tribulation every 100,000 years. If we survive, we can cultivate for another 100,000 years; if we fail, we perish under the tribulation."

"If the previous Emperor had not chosen to transform and recultivate, given her foundation, it should not have been a problem for her to successfully pass the next tribulation and reach a cultivation level of over 200,000 years."

"To be honest, even I still do not understand why the Emperor chose to transform back then."

Jiang Li scoffed inwardly. Why did she transform? Was it not the machinations of that hypocritical Asura God?

The Blue Silver King was not lying about the Blue Silver Emperor being able to reach over 200,000 years of cultivation; the one on the neighboring Sun-Moon Continent had reached nearly 190,000 years.

As for why it got stuck at 190,000 years during the era of the Shrek Academy's successor...

It really wasn't hard to guess!

Tang San also understood. He realized that the soul beast tribulation was likely similar to the tribulations the spirits and monsters of his past life had to face once they reached a certain level of cultivation. As for why his mother chose to transform and recultivate, he felt that only his mother could answer that.

The Blue Silver King continued, "Although the previous Emperor successfully transformed into a human and had reached level 70, the maturity stage, by the last time we sensed her, she still chose to sacrifice herself for your father."

"I suspect that she must have encountered some insurmountable difficulty at that time, which is why she chose to sacrifice her own life."

Tang San's mind quickly constructed a story: after giving birth to him, his mother was hunted down by a group of evil people for some unknown reason.

When they were backed into a corner, in order to ensure the survival of her husband and child, she resolutely chose to sacrifice herself, leaving the chance to live to the two of them.

At the thought of this, he felt a sharp pain in his heart. "Wuwuwu, Mother!!!"

"Mother, you have suffered so much!"

Seeing Tang San crying so bitterly, the Blue Silver King felt a surge of emotion. Their Emperor truly was a person of utmost sincerity and filial piety!

"My Emperor, do not be so sorrowful. After a member of our Blue Silver Grass clan sacrifices themselves, they leave behind a Seed of Life. I can sense that your mother is still alive."

Jiang Li also comforted him from the side, "San, it seems the other sensation calling out to you in your mind earlier must have come from your mother."

Hope instantly ignited in Tang San's heart!

If his mother had only regressed into the form of a seed, then perhaps once her age was restored to 100,000 years, she could truly be resurrected.

"Master..."

"San, I understand what you mean. The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well can indeed help plants grow at ten times the speed."

"Once we find your mother, I will find a way to transplant her there."

Hearing this, another wave of warmth flowed through Tang San's heart.

Without his master, he would never have been able to awaken the Blue Silver Emperor so quickly, nor would he have been able to come here to learn the truth about his mother.

Thinking of his mother, whose current state was unknown and who might still be suffering, his heart ached uncontrollably.

The sooner he could transplant his mother to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, the sooner he would be able to see her!

His master's kindness was truly impossible to repay!

Jiang Li said to the Blue Silver King, "Blue Silver King, once we find San's mother, we will transplant her true form to the place we mentioned earlier."

"I need you to gather all the Blue Silver Kings that are over ten thousand years old; I will transplant all of you there as well."

"Once there, your cultivation speed will increase tenfold, and I also hope you will take good care of San's mother."

The Blue Silver King's massive phantom nodded. Protecting the Emperor was their duty, and they would not shirk it.

"Alright, San. What I know is much the same as what the Blue Silver King knows, but there is one point I am unsure of—whether it is a rumor or the truth—which can only be confirmed once we find your mother's true form."

"Therefore, I will not tell you now, so as to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings."

Tang San naturally nodded in agreement; he already knew enough for now.

What he wanted to know most of all was why his mother had chosen to sacrifice herself!

But regardless of who they were, he would not let a single person who harmed his mother go; they all deserved to die!

At this moment, the expression of the Blue Silver King suddenly turned solemn. "My Emperor, I wonder if you are willing to protect your subjects just as the previous Emperor did?"

"I am willing!"

Tang San nodded without the slightest hesitation.

Although it might sound strange, were his mother's kin not his own kin as well?

Furthermore, he could not even be considered a complete human, as half the bloodline of the Blue Silver Emperor flowed through his veins.

Upon hearing Tang San's firm reply, the Blue Silver King's solemn face seemed to relax as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

"Great Emperor, since that is the case, please accept the blessings from your subjects!"
