Ah Yin, Your Daughter Tang San Is the Villain Among Villains

Xiao Yexuan sensed Tang San taking Xiao Wu away and fleeing. The corners of his lips curled up. The real show had finally begun.

Right after that, Xiao Yexuan made his move as well.

He first went to where Ah Yin was being kept.

Ah Yin was now merely a stalk of Blue Silver Grass that looked somewhat longer than ordinary grass blades, with fine golden patterns on its leaves. It swayed gently, giving off a soft aura.

After Xiao Yexuan arrived, Ah Yin's strength was nowhere near enough for her to sense him.

Xiao Yexuan used Life Energy, directly granting Ah Yin the power to undergo a Human Form Transformation.

Ah Yin looked to be in her thirties. A blue-gold long dress covered her entire body, and her noble, elegant bearing accentuated her exquisite face that seemed too beautiful for the mortal world.

Her azure eyes were as flawless as blue crystals. Golden ribbons rose around the hem of her skirt, while a faint fragrance drifted through the air.

Her long azure hair cascaded down her back. She seemed to have gathered all the beauty of heaven and earth within herself, as though she were the center of this world. She was so beautiful it took one's breath away, making everything else pale in comparison at a glance.

Ah Yin was very happy right now. She had actually transformed into human form? Then, the next time she saw her daughter Tang San, she would no longer have to stay with Tang San in the form of Blue Silver Grass.

She truly wanted to hold her adorable daughter in her human form.

"You're truly beautiful. Tang San's looks mostly came from you, didn't they?"

Suddenly, Xiao Yexuan's admiring voice sounded behind Ah Yin.

Ah Yin's body tensed. What kind of powerful expert could come so silently to her side without her noticing?

Ah Yin became vigilant. After all, she knew that she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. Any powerful soul master could easily see through her.

No one would give up a treasure like a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

Still, Ah Yin was puzzled. Why did this person know her daughter Tang San's name?

Could it be that what she had sensed these past few days had not been an illusion?

Ah Yin calmly turned around and saw a man so handsome that looking at him once more might make her explode.

He was far too handsome. If she were not already a mother, Ah Yin truly would have wanted to marry the person before her immediately.

However, she still had a daughter. Such a handsome young man, and seemingly a very powerful one too—perhaps he could become her son-in-law.

After all, whether in Ah Yin's eyes or in the eyes of outsiders—

Her Tang San was a peerless beauty.

Anyone who saw her would be captivated.

"My Little San may not have told me anything, but as her mother, I could still see that she had hidden many things from me. I guess they were all because of you."

Ah Yin was rather bold as well, pointing at Xiao Yexuan as she spoke.

Xiao Yexuan froze. He had not expected Ah Yin to say something like that upon their first meeting.

She really was arrogant. She was not afraid of him at all.

"Oh? Then what else did you guess?" Xiao Yexuan did not explain. Instead, he became rather curious about what Ah Yin had misunderstood.

Ah Yin looked Xiao Yexuan up and down, propping her chin with one hand as she gazed at him appreciatively, then said:

"Even if Little San doesn't say it, I can tell. She has a boyfriend. I guess you're her little boyfriend. And also..."

Ah Yin could not bring herself to say the rest, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

The scent on Tang San's body was a man's scent.

It was too familiar. It was exactly the same as the scent of Xiao Yexuan before her.

Was that difficult to guess?

"Haha!" Xiao Yexuan was amused. He really did look harmless enough that Ah Yin had not even suspected he was a bad person.

Still, Xiao Yexuan had indeed done many things to Tang San. In a sense, he could count as her boyfriend.

Xiao Yexuan neither denied Ah Yin's words nor said that her guess was right.

He smiled again and said, "Let's not talk about how I treat Little San. But Little San right now is quite something—she's eloping with her little girlfriend."

"What did you say? A girlfriend?" Ah Yin was greatly shocked. Her daughter had a girlfriend?

How was that possible? Why would something like this happen? How could two women carry on the family line?

Why choose some girlfriend instead of the handsome, beautiful young man before her?

Yet Ah Yin was gentle and kind by nature. She felt that Tang San might be wrong, but she could not deny Tang San because of it.

Tang San was her precious daughter, after all. No matter what Tang San did, she had to support her.

"There's nothing that can't happen. And what happens next will let you see Tang San clearly for who she is—her shamelessness and her Double Standard!" Xiao Yexuan said with emphasis.

"Shameless? You... You are not allowed to speak of my Little San that way. Perhaps she dumped you and ran off with someone else, leaving you resentful enough to say such things. I don't blame you, and it isn't your fault. But you still cannot speak of a girl like that. Take back what you just said, and I'll pretend none of this happened."

Ah Yin truly was kind. Judging from her expression and movements, she was not angry with Xiao Yexuan at all.

"Ah Yin, you're mistaken. What does Tang San running off with someone else have to do with me? I'm merely stating the facts. Tang San is inherently a despicable, shameless, vile hypocrite with a Double Standard," Xiao Yexuan stated firmly.

Ah Yin was a little upset, but she still spoke to Xiao Yexuan seriously.

"Everyone sees things differently. Perhaps you're prejudiced against Little San for speaking of her that way. But my Little San, to me, is a good child. She would never do anything to hurt others."

"Is that so? But right now, Tang San is hurting someone—and that person trusts her deeply, even willing to die for her. Oh, right! That person is actually, like you, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who underwent a Human Form Transformation. What Tang San wants should not be hard for you to guess, should it?" Xiao Yexuan gave an evil smile.

"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who underwent a Human Form Transformation!" Ah Yin seemed to recall something painful. She had once been hunted to death by Spirit Hall, so she understood the desire humans had for Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

A Hundred-Thousand Year Soul Ring, along with a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone—both were priceless treasures.

Who would not be tempted upon seeing them?

But Ah Yin quickly shook her head hard and said with certainty:

"No! My Little San would never do such a thing. She told me that even though I'm a soul beast, she would still love me as her mother. Like Big Brother Hao, she would always protect the one she loves."

"It seems our views differ. Then let's make a bet. We'll bet on whether Tang San will set her sights on that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"

Xiao Yexuan revealed his purpose for coming here.

Ah Yin frowned. She did not like gambling, so she directly refused.

"I won't bet."

"You won't? I haven't even told you what the stakes are. Are you sure you don't want freedom—for yourself and Tang San?" Xiao Yexuan smiled confidently.
