Tang San, I'm Your Mother

"The place with the strongest life signs is up ahead."

Now that Xiao Yexuan was only heading toward one location, his speed was much faster.

However, once he arrived here, Xiao Yexuan began to grow cautious.

Though he was powerful, if Tang Hao was there, then even if Tang Hao could not defeat him, he could still escape.

That would be troublesome.

Thus, while still far away, Xiao Yexuan stopped using Life Energy to take over the surrounding area.

He feared that any changes in the forest might alert Tang Hao, if he was nearby.

So Xiao Yexuan sent a weak soul beast to scout the area.

After searching around, Xiao Yexuan was pleased to find no sign of anyone.

With Tang Hao absent, Xiao Yexuan felt much more at ease.

He then spread Life Energy over the area and found the Blue Silver Grass that Ah Yin had transformed into.

With Xiao Yexuan's power, if he wished, he could easily revive Ah Yin and restore her to her previous Hundred-Thousand-Year state.

However, Xiao Yexuan was in no hurry, and he did not intend to touch Ah Yin yet.

He would first let Tang San reunite with Ah Yin. Once Tang San became deeply dependent on Ah Yin, he would execute Ah Yin on the spot before Tang San's eyes.

Just like what had happened with Xiao Wu.

Tang San was an orphan, and having been reborn into this world, she desperately craved familial affection.

It was not that Xiao Wu, her younger sister, was not close enough. It was simply that, in Tang San's eyes, Xiao Wu had practically become an enemy.

But what about her biological mother? Although Tang San might view even her biological mother as someone to use—

There still needed to be a period of transition.

And that period would be one of unimaginable pain for Tang San.

Thus, Xiao Yexuan first expanded the territory under his control in this region.

He would wait for Tang Hao to come visit Ah Yin, then capture him.

It was a small trap laid to hunt Tang Hao.

As for Ah Yin—

Xiao Yexuan used his power, intending to transplant Ah Yin near Tang San.

That way, Tang San would be able to leave the Ice and Fire Duality Eye more quickly in the future and find Ah Yin.

She would receive motherly love from Ah Yin.

Xiao Yexuan quickly found Tang San's location.

Tang San had eaten and drunk her fill, yet she was actually lying by a small river, basking in the sun with her legs crossed.

She was really living comfortably.

But was she seriously wearing nothing but leaves?

Xiao Yexuan did not want Tang San to know that he had been watching her all along or that he knew where she was.

That would be detrimental to his future plans, so after placing Ah Yin beneath a crooked tree not far away, Xiao Yexuan hid nearby.

After gaining a new home, Ah Yin did not know what was happening.

However, Ah Yin soon sensed the power of her bloodline.

Though she had turned into a blade of grass, she still retained a trace of consciousness.

She remembered that she had a child. Since she could sense the power of their bloodline, that had to be her child.

She had sensed it before and had been calling out all this time. Now that her child was so close, Ah Yin became even more excited.

She began calling Tang San over.

Tang San appeared to be sunbathing, but in truth, she knew perfectly well that she was resting.

After eating, Tang San had gone to play in the river. Being naked made it easy for strange thoughts to arise.

So Tang San had done something else in the river that made her happy.

When she came back to herself, Tang San had unknowingly overdone it again.

She was exhausted to death. Fortunately, she had been playing in the river, and since the river was flowing, it washed away every trace of her misdeeds.

That meant she did not need to spend any more energy cleaning up.

She had barely rested for any time before Tang San felt that warm summons again. It was like a mother's caress, and also like the bliss of eating Spicy Rabbit Head at night.

In any case, it was a summons Tang San could not resist.

Tang San headed in that direction, hoping it could help her escape her current situation of being controlled by Xiao Yexuan.

"Huh?" Tang San stared blankly at the enormous Blue Silver Grass before her.

Since when could Blue Silver Grass grow this large?

Had this plant become a spirit?

Tang San suddenly looked at her right hand, where a warm aura was coming from.

The mark of a Blue Silver Grass slowly appeared. Then Tang San raised her brows as her Blue Silver Grass martial soul was actually summoned.

Tang San remembered that Xiao Yexuan had sealed her power, hadn't he?

Otherwise, when she had seen the durian earlier, she would not have still been starving.

Tang San could have simply used Blue Silver Grass to cut down the tree.

Once Tang San's Blue Silver Grass martial soul appeared, the Blue Silver Grass beneath the crooked tree opposite her trembled even more intensely.

Then a soft strand of Blue Silver Grass reached toward Tang San.

Tang San did not resist. She discovered that this Blue Silver Grass was gentle and held no hostility toward her.

Moreover, Tang San was certain that this Blue Silver Grass was the one calling her.

The Blue Silver Grass coiled around Tang San's wrist. Tang San seemed to see an incomparably beautiful Mature Woman standing before her, gazing at her with gentle eyes.

"Little San~ My child~! You truly are my good child~!"

Ah Yin's voice rang beside Tang San's ear, full of excitement and joy.

For some reason, when this woman claimed that Tang San was her child, Tang San did not feel the urge to hit her.

Ever since childhood, she had not had a mother, and her father had been a drunkard.

The only place Tang San had ever seen such a loving gaze was on Grandpa Jack.

"You... you are my mother..."

Tang San reached out to grab her, but she was only a phantom.

Tang San felt that something was wrong and anxiously looked around. Could this be an illusion?

Without another word, Tang San moved to uncover the leaf below, intending to use pain to determine whether this was an illusion or reality.

However, Ah Yin's words stopped Tang San's dangerous movement.

"Little San, so you're a girl! Haotian Gege even said you were a little boy. What an old man—he only knows how to lie!"

Ah Yin placed her hand on Tang San's head as she spoke.

Tang San could feel the touch on her head. It was very real. It did not seem fake.

"You... really are my mother?" Tang San's eyes grew slightly moist.

"But... why... is your body like this? And... what is with that Blue Silver Grass outside?"

"Little San, as you can see, that Blue Silver Grass outside is my true body. I was a Blue Silver Grass whose cultivation had reached a Hundred-Thousand-Year level. In the end, I cultivated again and took Human Form Transformation, then I got together with Tang Hao and eventually had you."

Ah Yin explained.

"So that's where my Blue Silver Grass martial soul came from."

Tang San recalled her childhood. When she had first revealed her Blue Silver Grass martial soul before Tang Hao, Tang Hao's emotions had fluctuated so intensely.

So it was because her mother had been a Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Grass.

She was not a child without a mother. And her mother was not dead. This was wonderful—Tang San was not an orphan!

She had motherly love too!

Suddenly, Tang San realized something else. Since Ah Yin had undergone Human Form Transformation as a soul beast, why had Xiao Wu remained human while her own mother was a blade of grass?

Could it be that her father, Tang Hao...

He really had unusual tastes!
