The Dead Wife Douluo's Treasure Trove and His Humble Wife

Behind the Holy Soul Village.

A hundred-meter-high waterfall roared down like a silver dragon.

The sound of the water was deafening.

It crashed against the boulders at the bottom of the pool, sending a spray of mist into the air.

Sunlight refracted through the mist, casting a partial rainbow; the scenery was magnificent enough to be a painting.

Xiao Chenyu stood beneath the waterfall, looking up at the natural chasm.

The mist hit his face, stinging, and his clothes were soaked through within moments.

He wiped the water from his face, took a deep breath, and sent a confirmation message in the chat group.

[Xiao Chenyu]: @Will of Douluo Planet, are you sure the spirit bone is up there?

[Will of Douluo Planet]: That's right, that's right! There's a cave behind the waterfall. Go through it, and you'll find the small valley where Tang Hao hid the spirit bone.

[Will of Douluo Planet]: This baby's intel is absolutely precise, no swindling here! Go for it! ٩(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

This is a hundred-meter waterfall, after all...

Xiao Chenyu squinted as he looked upward.

The water was fierce, with tons of it pouring down from above every second.

Relying on human strength alone to climb it, ten of him tied together probably wouldn't be enough to withstand the force.

Not to mention the rock face was covered in moss, as slick as if it had been coated in oil.

But the Xiao Chenyu of today was no longer the little loser from four years ago.

Spirit power surged through his meridians, and a dark purple phantom slowly emerged behind him.

Destruction Demon Wolf King spirit, possess!

"Awoo—"

A low wolf howl echoed through the valley.

His figure instantly grew taller, his limbs covered in a layer of thick, dark purple fur. His hands transformed into sharp wolf claws, and ghostly purple flames ignited in his pupils.

Following that, his first spirit ring lit up.

Dark Gold Demon Wolf Transformation!

Clang!

Dark gold patterns spread from his claws across his entire body. His muscles expanded once more, and his bones popped with a crisp sound.

At this moment, Xiao Chenyu was a top-tier werewolf in the literal sense, without any metaphor.

"Here I go!"

He kicked off the ground with both legs, shattering the rock beneath his feet. His body launched like a cannonball, heading straight for the middle section of the waterfall.

Sshhh—

His sharp claws dug fiercely into the rock wall behind the waterfall, sending stone fragments flying.

The impact of the water was even more violent than he had imagined; every second felt like dozens of hands were desperately dragging him downward.

Xiao Chenyu bared his teeth, clinging to the slick rock wall like a gecko as he climbed upward.

Every swing of his claws left deep gouges in the stone.

[Human-Faced Demon Spider]: Climb! Climb! Climb!

[Xiao Chenyu]: ...

[Xiao Chenyu]: Can you stop using that tone like you're commanding a pet? I'm your avenger, at least show some respect, okay?

[Human-Faced Demon Spider]: Go! Go! Go!

[Xiao Chenyu]: That's better.

He caught his breath and continued upward.

The roar of the water filled his ears, drowning out even the sound of his own breathing.

His claws scraped a trail of sparks against the rock wall; every meter he gained tested both his arm strength and his willpower.

A short while later.

[Will of Douluo Planet]: Stop, stop, stop! Right here! Look to the right! Behind the waterfall! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Xiao Chenyu halted his movement and tilted his head—behind the thick curtain of water, a dark, gloomy cave entrance was vaguely visible.

If one didn't look closely, they would never discover this natural stone cave hidden behind the waterfall.

"Tang Hao really knows how to pick a spot; this is hidden even better than my dad's secret stash."

Without hesitation, he kicked off the rock wall with both feet.

He flew horizontally, passing straight through the thick curtain of water.

He slammed heavily onto a wet rock platform.

"Bang!"

Water splashed everywhere.

Xiao Chenyu lay on the ground in an extremely unsightly posture.

"Cough, cough... If anyone saw this landing, my image as the city lord's son would be completely ruined."

He climbed up and wrung out his clothes, squeezing out a small puddle of water.

There wasn't a single dry spot on his entire body.

The fur from his werewolf form clung to his skin, making him look just like a drowned rat pulled straight from a river.

He promptly deactivated his martial soul possession, returning to his human form.

He lit the tinder he carried with him and began to survey his surroundings.

A deep, secluded cave entrance lay right before him, pitch-black inside and emitting a chilly, eerie aura.

The cave walls were covered in moss, and the air was thick with the smell of stale earth.

"A standard treasure cave atmosphere."

Dark, damp, and filled with gusts of cold wind; all it lacked was a sign at the entrance reading 'Heroes Welcome.'

Xiao Chenyu held up the tinder and walked into the narrow passage.

The cave walls were slick, and the ground beneath his feet was uneven and pitted.

Occasionally, water droplets fell from overhead, landing on his neck and raising goosebumps.

After walking for about half an incense stick's time, the view suddenly opened up.

This was a secluded, enclosed valley surrounded by mountains.

Steep stone walls rose on all four sides, blocking out all light.

The valley was dark and damp, with pitifully sparse vegetation and jagged rocks and thick moss everywhere.

The air was filled with an indescribable, musty odor.

"Is this where Tang Hao hid his wife and the spirit bone?"

Xiao Chenyu looked around, unable to stop himself from frowning.

"This is too shabby. There isn't even a decent tomb. In this environment, let alone a Blue Silver Grass Seedling, even weeds would grow withered and limp."

He groped along the stone wall, the faint light of the tinder flickering in the darkness.

Soon, his fingertips touched something cold and hard.

He looked down and saw it was a stone box!

The craftsmanship was crude, devoid of any patterns, and its surface was covered in dust and moss.

It sat all alone in a hollow of the stone wall.

"Found it!"

Xiao Chenyu's heart raced.

The 100,000-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone was inside this inconspicuous stone box.

Just then, he caught a glimpse of a faint blue light in the deepest part of the valley.

He walked closer with the tinder and saw clearly what it was.

A stalk of Blue Silver Grass.

Its slender leaves were curled up in the darkness, drooping limply.

The color was a lifeless grayish-blue, and the tips of the leaves were already turning yellow.

It looked just like an ordinary weed on the side of the road that could be crushed underfoot at any moment.

A-Yin!

Tang San's mother, Tang Hao's wife, the 100,000-Year Blue Silver Emperor who had been forced to sacrifice herself to save her husband and unborn child after taking human form.

All that remained was this reincarnated seedling grown from a seed.

[Goddess of Life]: Is this A-Yin's reincarnated seedling?

[Goddess of Life]: I have a question. A-Yin was Tang Hao's wife; the fact that Tang Hao kept her reincarnated seedling shows he had feelings for her.

[Goddess of Life]: Yet, if that is the case, why would he place his wife's reincarnated seedling in a place like this, where there is no sunlight and no access to the vital energy of heaven and earth?

[Goddess of Life]: For a plant, this environment is no different from a slow death.

[Xiao Chenyu]: Godmother, you've hit the nail on the head.

[Goddess of Life]: Oh? Is there some unknown story behind this?

[Xiao Chenyu]: That story is a long one.

[Will of Douluo Planet]: I know! I know!

Simply put, this Tang Hao is rotten to the core and stupid to the core, cut from the exact same cloth as Tang San!
