Hearing Tang Xiao defend Qian Renxue so fiercely, a complicated struggle flashed through Ah Yin's eyes.
She looked at her son's firm yet gentle gaze and knew it would be difficult to change his mind.
But she still couldn't help worrying.
"But... she is still a member of Spirit Hall..."
Ah Yin murmured softly, the wariness in her eyes not entirely gone.
Tang Xiao smiled faintly, a hint of domineering pride flashing in his eyes.
"Mother, don't worry. I've already reached the God King realm."
"In this world, no one can scheme against me, and no one can hurt my family."
"If Spirit Hall dares to make a move, I can wipe it out with a flip of my hand."
"I've left them alone only for Xue'er's sake."
Tang Xiao's voice was calm, but the absolute power it held made Ah Yin's heart tremble.
She stared at her eldest son, stunned.
This child, who had been abandoned, had now grown to such a terrifying degree.
It was a power that could make even the gods bow their heads in submission.
Ah Yin gradually calmed down. She sighed and said nothing more.
She knew her son had grown up and now had the strength and judgment to make his own decisions.
Seeing that his mother no longer objected, Tang Xiao felt a weight lift from his heart.
He looked at Ah Yin's still-illusory, semi-transparent body and said,
"Mother, I'll deal with those old grudges gradually."
"For now, the most important thing is to restore your physical body."
"The life energy of Douluo Continent is too weak. It isn't suitable for rebuilding a perfect body for you."
"We need to return to Sun Moon Continent and go deep into my empire."
Ah Yin listened and nodded, still bewildered.
"I'll leave it all to you, Xiao'er."
She was now full of curiosity about the mysterious Sun Moon Continent and the empire her son had founded.
"Good. Then let's go."
As Tang Xiao finished speaking, brilliant blue-gold light burst from his body.
The light formed a thick shield, perfectly enveloping Ah Yin's body and shutting out every trace of the outside world.
Then Tang Xiao shot into the sky with Ah Yin.
Boom!
A muffled explosion rang through the void.
Their figures instantly became a streak of blue-gold light and vanished into the distance.
Ah Yin felt the scenery before her eyes shake violently.
The surrounding void seemed to tear open in that instant, as countless rays of light flashed past them.
The towering mountains and endless plains below became nothing but blurred lines.
In the blink of an eye,
they had crossed countless mountains and rivers and appeared above a vast, boundless sea.
The waves churned and surged below, yet beneath Tang Xiao's feet, they seemed almost still.
That speed, terrifying beyond measure, left Ah Yin struggling to breathe.
If Tang Xiao's blue-gold shield hadn't protected her, the pressure from the wind alone would have torn her fragile soul to pieces!
"Th-this is impossible!"
Ah Yin's beautiful eyes were filled with horror.
She had once been a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast and had seen countless powerful beings.
Even a Titled Douluo from the agility attack class, famed for speed, would have seemed to crawl across the ground like a snail compared to this.
No, this could no longer be described as speed.
It was practically a spatial leap! A power belonging only to the gods!
Ah Yin turned her head and looked at Tang Xiao beside her.
Tang Xiao looked calm; even his breathing remained steady.
With one hand clasped behind his back, he carried her across the boundless sea with effortless ease, as if strolling leisurely through his own courtyard.
Feeling the vast, oceanic power that seemed to flicker around Tang Xiao, Ah Yin's heart was swept by stormy waves.
Just how powerful has my son become?
Ah Yin wondered silently, utterly shaken.
She had originally thought Tang Xiao was exaggerating when he spoke of being a "God King" and "uniting the continent."
But after experiencing this terrifying speed herself, she no longer had any doubts.
This was divine power, beyond the mortal realm and above the world itself!
Before long,
a black line appeared on the horizon.
As they drew closer, the line grew wider and wider, eventually becoming a vast, boundless new continent.
It was Sun Moon Continent!
Tang Xiao slowed slightly and brought Ah Yin above the Blue Silver Empire.
Ah Yin followed Tang Xiao's gaze and looked down.
Below them lay an immense imperial city, so magnificent it defied imagination.
Countless towering palaces stood in orderly rows, radiating an ancient and imposing air.
The imperial city covered an enormous area, stretching beyond the horizon. Its prosperity far exceeded even the capitals of the Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire.
Yet the magnificent buildings were not what shocked Ah Yin most.
It was the aura suffusing the continent.
The moment she entered its skies, Ah Yin clearly felt the air teeming with Blue Silver Grass energy, thick beyond measure.
It was a life-filled, warm, and peaceful power.
The mountains, plains, streets, and even the palace walls below were covered in flourishing Blue Silver Grass.
The grasses gave off a faint blue glow. Gathered together, they looked like a blue ocean enveloping the entire continent.
As the former Blue Silver Emperor, Ah Yin was especially sensitive to the aura of Blue Silver Grass.
In that moment, she felt as if she had returned to her mother's embrace. Every cell in her body was rejoicing.
"W-what is going on?"
Ah Yin covered her small mouth, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.
She turned to Tang Xiao and asked in a trembling voice,
"Xiao'er, is this continent... covered in Blue Silver Grass?"
"Why does the Blue Silver Grass here have such powerful life force?"
On Douluo Continent, Blue Silver Grass was widely considered the most useless Martial Soul and the weakest of plants.
But here, she could feel its life force, powerful enough to seem like a miracle.
Seeing his mother's astonishment, Tang Xiao smiled warmly.
"That's right, Mother."
"After I unified this continent, I fused my Blue Silver Supreme Origin into every corner of this land."
"Now, every strand of Blue Silver Grass here is my eyes and ears, as well as the guardian of my empire's people."
Tang Xiao spread his arms slightly and gazed down at the vast, boundless empire as he spoke softly:
"Welcome to my Blue Silver Empire."
His voice was not loud, yet it carried supreme authority and pride.
Ah Yin stared at the scene, utterly entranced.
This was the empire her son had built!
A vast empire ruled by Blue Silver Grass, brimming with boundless life and hope!
