Borrowed Flowers for a Gift: The Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone

Just as the outside world was in an uproar over Tang Chen's return.

The person involved was at the Ye Family, chatting casually as if nothing had happened.

"You mean that kid asked you to come back and guard my house?"

"That's not appropriate, senior."

Ye Xingmeng was speechless; the other party really knew how to stir up trouble.

They didn't even inform her beforehand; she's completely unprepared now.

The patriarch of the Clear Sky Sect came to guard her house; what was that kid thinking?

"That's roughly the gist of it. The main thing is that I owe that kid a huge favor, and I've been away from the Clear Sky Sect for quite some time, so I thought I'd come back to settle things."

"Don't worry, I promise I won't cause you any trouble."

Tang Chen's sincere attitude embarrassed Ye Xingmeng, this social butterfly.

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I meant there aren't so many rules. Do whatever you want. I'm fine here."

Ye Xingmeng had tried very hard to convince herself to accept this fact.

After a period of internal struggle, I still couldn't convince myself.

I can't adapt at all; it's like a beggar suddenly finding a mountain of gold.

Just yesterday they were scavenging leftovers, and suddenly they've become incredibly wealthy.

The difference in elevation is too great; no normal person could adapt to it.

Even though she knew Mo Lin was very strong, she always treated him like a child.

Tang Chen's situation is different. The other party's seniority is frighteningly high, and their status is also special. If she had that person standing at the door, she probably wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully.

"Ye Family, you've misunderstood. I'm not stationed here with the Ye Family."

Seeing the other party's concerns, Tang Chen immediately began to explain.

Mo Lin meant for him to watch over the workshop's entrance; the Ye Family would simply provide some extra support.

After all, he was afraid of scaring Ye Lingling and Ye Xingmeng, so he didn't have Tang Chen stay at the Ye Family.

But in reality, there's not much difference; the group will automatically connect the two anyway.

"Oh, is that so?"

Ye Xingmeng breathed a sigh of relief; at least that brat still had some sense of propriety.

"Um... senior..."

As Ye Xingmeng relaxed, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and sat up straight to look at Tang Chen.

"No need to be so polite. If you don't mind, you can just call me Grandpa Tang."

There's no way around it; my seniority is too high, and other forms of address aren't quite appropriate, so this is the only suitable one.

"Little girl, just call me Grandpa Tang."

Tang Chen turned to look at Ye Lingling, who hadn't spoken, and took the initiative to speak.

Ye Lingling sat quietly to the side, unlike her mother who felt uneasy about Tang Chen's presence.

On the contrary, she found the other person quite amiable, at least compared to Dugu Bo, he was a very normal type.

"Yes, Grandpa Tang."

Ye Lingling called out sweetly, and Tang Chen couldn't stop smiling.

Having spent most of his life striving for cultivation, he is now experiencing the joy of having a grandchild.

I wonder why I didn't have a daughter back then; look how adorable this child is.

"Hey, little girl, wait a minute, Grandpa has something for you."

Tang Chen rummaged through his pockets and then pulled out a wooden box.

The wooden box was surrounded by protective barriers. From the outside, it seemed unremarkable, and if it were thrown on the roadside, probably no one would notice it.

Ye Lingling was puzzled, but before she could say anything, Tang Chen Ye Lingling it into her hand.

"Please don't refuse, consider it a gift for our first visit."

Tang Chen now adores Ye Lingling; from the first moment he saw her, he felt an instant connection with her.

This may have been partly due to Mo Lin's influence, but more importantly, it was the life force emanating from Ye Lingling herself.

Titled Douluo's perception far surpasses that of an ordinary Soul Master, let alone someone like Tang Chen who has already reached the pinnacle of mortal existence.

The breath of life has a natural attraction for any living being; it is an innate instinct.

This applies to both Soul Beast and humans.

The Nine Heart Begonia itself possesses an inherent affinity for life, further enhanced by the Life Necklace gifted by Mo Lin.

It is actually inlaid with this Life Gold.

If she hadn't been hidden by the soul-guiding array, Ye Lingling would probably be stared at by countless eyes as she walks down the street.

Seeing Tang Chen's resolute attitude, Ye Lingling did not refuse.

"Thank you very much, Grandpa Tang."

Ye Lingling politely thanked Tang Chen.

But she placed the wooden box aside, seemingly not intending to open it there.

"Open it and take a look; the things inside are perfect for you."

Tang Chen acted mysteriously, but it was obvious that the gift had been prepared in advance.

To be precise, this gift was not prepared by Tang Chen.

The person who actually prepared this gift was Mo Lin.

However, he couldn't give this gift directly, so he could only use Tang Chen as a go-between to deliver it to Ye Lingling.

"No... that's not a good idea."

Ye Lingling hesitated; opening a gift in public seemed somewhat inappropriate.

"It's alright, let's dismantle it now, just in case something goes wrong later."

"Trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xingmeng immediately tensed up.

Her gaze fell on the box that Ye Lingling had placed to the side.

Without hesitation, he picked up the box before Ye Lingling could.

Then, he smiled at Ye Lingling very naturally.

"This little girl is easily embarrassed, I'll help her take it down."

Ye Lingling was furious; it was happening again.

Before Ye Lingling could say anything, Ye Xingmeng opened the box first.

The instant the box was opened, a rich and direct life force rushed out, instantly engulfing the entire courtyard.

The leak of life force immediately alerted many members of other forces hiding in the shadows.

Upon seeing this, Tang Chen's expression changed slightly.

"Get the hell out of here, all of you!"

The sound wasn't loud, but it was like an invisible thorn piercing the ears of those around.

Upon hearing this, the crowd quickly retreated, not daring to approach any further.

After dealing with the loiterers outside, [the situation was resolved].

Tang Chen then turned to look at Ye Xingmeng and her daughter Ye Lingling, who were still somewhat dazed.

"Senior, this... this is too precious, we can't accept it."

Ye Xingmeng placed the box on the table and gently pushed it toward Tang Chen.

Inside the wooden box that was opened at this moment lay a Soul Bone emitting a ghostly blue light.

The rich life force emanates from it.

Ye Xingmeng had never absorbed a Soul Bone Soul Bone, but she knew its value well.

Judging from its condition, the box contains at least a ten- Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone.

Such an extravagant gift is truly unacceptable.

"Take it. There's no reason to take back something I've given away."

"My Soul Bone are already complete. This Soul Bone was obtained by chance, so it's no trouble to give it to you."

"Besides, the familiarity of this Soul Bone seems perfect for this girl."

"The girl is still young; this is the time to lay a solid foundation."

"If you really feel bad about it, how about letting this girl become my goddaughter?"

Tang Chen was also a shrewd person; his combination of punches left Ye Xingmeng speechless.

Unbeknownst to her, the Soul Bone before her was the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone Mo Lin had been plotting for so long.

It was after Mo Lin rescued Tang Chen that he made a special trip to Holy Soul Village.

They found Tang Hao's hidden Soul Bone in the waterfall behind the mountain.

Of course, there's also the Blue Silver Emperor in its seedling stage.

He just fed this thing to Xiao Hei as a snack.

Tang Chen was to take the Soul Bone back to Ye Lingling, while he headed towards the Far North.

After all, enough time has already passed; it's time to find Good Side meet up with.
