A Heart-to-Heart Talk Between Uncle and Nephew: Where Did Mom Go?

Whoosh!

Tang San sprang to his feet from the ground in an instant, nervously looking around.

Where was this?

Where was Uncle?

"Uncle!"

Only when he saw that Yin Chuan was still there did he let out a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness...

It wasn't an illusion!

His uncle really was here!

He had an uncle now. He had family! (Tang Hao only counted as half.)

An uncle was greater than a mother.

In his previous life, Tang San had envied those who had uncles. Now, he had one too!

Tang San had not even felt such a powerful sense of blood connection from Tang Hao.

His miraculous martial soul told him

that they truly were family!

"Huh?"

A stronger emotion suddenly welled up within Tang San, an indescribable feeling

that seemed to come from the frail Blue Silver Grass before him.

It was the same feeling of blood connection,

hearts linked to hearts,

even broken bones remained connected by sinews...

Tang San did not know why, but his heart hurt so badly!

"Little San, as the saying goes, a mother and child are connected at heart. You should already feel it, right?"

"That's your mother, my older sister—a Blue Silver Grass."

Yin Chuan let out a heavy sigh.

As for Ah Yin's identity,

he had no intention of hiding it at all. Tang San was a reincarnator, after all, and his mind was mature enough.

Telling Tang San these things sooner would only benefit him.

"What?!!!"

Tang San's expression changed drastically, disbelief written all over his face.

His uncle said that this Blue Silver Grass was his mother?!

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Tang San's worldview could not accept such a thing, yet that feeling of blood connection was so intense.

"I know you can't accept it."

"Little San, listen to me."

"I'm also a Blue Silver Grass, and you have half the bloodline of Blue Silver Grass too."

"On Douluo Continent, Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts can reincarnate and take human form."

"Your mother and I were both Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts reincarnated as humans."

"Back then, she took human form and fell in love with your father. I was still a Blue Silver Grass at the time."

"The year you were born, your mother suffered an accident. She was hunted down and died..."

"But our Blue Silver Grass Clan cannot be burned away by wildfire; Spring Breeze Blows and Life Returns. She did not truly die, but became a seed and began a new cycle of reincarnation."

"This Blue Silver Grass is her newly reborn self."

Yin Chuan walked over to Ah Yin and carefully began digging up the soil to transplant her.

As for Tang San,

his eyes had already turned bloodshot, and he panted like a bull!

No wonder!

No wonder he had never seen his mother since birth!

His mother had been harmed!

Tang San accepted that his mother and uncle had been Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts who took human form in only 0.1 seconds.

One's body, hair, and skin were received from one's parents. How could a child decide their mother's origins?

His attention was entirely fixed on Ah Yin's death.

"Uncle, who killed my mother?!"

Tang San asked, panting heavily.

The hatred of murdering one's mother

was irreconcilable!

If he, Tang San, did not avenge this, he swore he would not be human!

"I've been investigating all these years, and I've already confirmed the culprit who killed your mother."

"The one who led the hunt for your mother back then was the former Pope of Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji. But he's already dead."

Yin Chuan spoke calmly.

Tang San froze.

Dead?

What did he mean, already dead?

"Then where is Qian Xunji's grave?"

"Uncle, I want to dig up his grave and whip his corpse!"

Tang San's eyes were bloodshot.

"Little San, don't be impulsive. Qian Xunji died horribly, and not even his bones remain. Even if you wanted to whip his corpse, there's no corpse to whip."

Yin Chuan had already carefully transplanted Ah Yin into a special container and began searching for the box holding Ah Yin's soul bone.

"What?!"

Tang San's body swayed, and he nearly blacked out and fainted.

He could not even whip the corpse.

Did that not mean he was powerless to avenge his mother's murder?

Heavens!

Why were the heavens being so cruel to him?

Why deny him the chance to avenge his mother?!

"However, your father's ninth soul ring is your mother..."

Yin Chuan said meaningfully.

Tang San did not quite understand now, but he would understand in the future.

"Uncle, what are we doing now?"

Tang San followed behind Yin Chuan, looking at the Blue Silver Grass and lead box in Yin Chuan's hands with a heavy heart.

That was his mother!

"To seek justice for your mother—and for you!"

Yin Chuan's voice was icy.

Hmph!

That damned Tang Hao—what had he promised him back then?

"Let's go!"

Yin Chuan brought Tang San back to the blacksmith shop in Holy Soul Village, but it was completely empty. Everyone had gone, leaving the place deserted.

Tang Hao had run away...

"Where's Father?"

Tang San was shocked and alarmed. His father had fled!

What was going on?

Tang San felt that his blacksmith father was a little strange.

He was clearly dejected and slovenly,

yet he had won his mother's heart. Judging from his uncle's appearance, Tang San was certain that his mother had been a great beauty.

Such a mother paired with the drunkard Tang Hao

was simply a flower planted in a pile of manure!

Tang San truly felt that his mother had been wronged.

And Tang Hao would not even let him cultivate, even though he had the finest talent, Innate Full Soul Power.

Was it because his martial soul was his mother's Blue Silver Grass?

Tang San felt deeply uncomfortable.

Before, when others said his Blue Silver Grass was a useless martial soul, he did not mind. But now, this was his mother!

Whoever said that would have to answer to him!

"Tang Hao, get the hell out here!"

"I know you haven't left. You must be watching from the shadows."

"Stop running away!"

"You coward!"

"What did you promise me back then?"

"I repeatedly told you to keep a low profile and not parade my sister around. You pounded your chest and swore to me that you'd hide her well and protect her!"

"And what happened?"

"Get out here and explain yourself!"

Holding the Blue Silver Tyrant Spear, Yin Chuan roared furiously. Tyrant's Roar resounded through heaven and earth.

Everyone in Holy Soul Village instantly fell into a peaceful sleep.

Meanwhile, Tang Hao, who had been watching in secret, felt so ashamed that his face burned.

Whoosh!

A gentle breeze stirred.

Tang Hao appeared before Yin Chuan and Tang San, lowering his head as he spoke in a muffled voice.

"Xiao Chuan, I'm sorry. I failed to protect your sister..."

"I didn't heed your warning..."

Tang Hao looked pained, regretful, and full of guilt.

This truly had been his fault.

Back then, Yin Chuan had warned him again and again, and he had solemnly sworn that he would not take Ah Yin around carelessly.

But everyone knew what happened afterward...

"Fuck your mother!"

"Now you know how to regret it?"

"Now you know you were wrong?"

"What the hell were you doing before?!"

Slap!

Yin Chuan slapped Tang Hao across the face with such force that Tang Hao was sent directly to his knees.

Tang Hao's already burning face immediately turned red as heated iron, and he was so embarrassed that he wished he could crawl into a hole.

"Xiao Chuan, hit me!"

"I let Ah Yin down. If it'll calm you down, you can beat me to death. I let Ah Yin down..."

Tang Hao's voice was soft. Already dejected, he actually felt a little better after being beaten.

At least Yin Chuan hitting him

could lessen some of his guilt toward Ah Yin.

As for Tang San,

under normal circumstances, if someone had beaten his father like this, his eyes would have turned bloodshot, he would have panted like a bull, and he would have marked that person for death.

But the one beating his father was his uncle!

And from their conversation, Tang San could gather the information

that the bastard who had gotten his mother killed

was Tang Hao, his goddamned father!
