Tang Hao: My Hidden Injuries Really Healed, but Where Did My Great Big Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone Go?!

Tang Hao forced himself onward despite his injuries, carrying Tang San through the air.

After passing over a seemingly endless range of mountains,

a valley embraced by peaks and lush with verdant life finally appeared among the mountain forests below.

The valley lay hidden deep within the mountains, surrounded by sheer cliffs, with lush trees covering the entire valley.

A waterfall plunged from a hundred-meter-high mountain into a blue pool below, throwing up great sprays of water.

Upon reaching their destination,

Tang Hao immediately carried Tang San down toward the waterfall.

They finally stopped halfway down the waterfall. Tang Hao waved a hand, releasing a surge of Soul Power.

Under the force of Tang Hao's Soul Power,

the middle of the waterfall immediately caved inward, revealing a stone door hidden behind it.

Tang Hao then took Tang San and darted inside.

Beyond the stone door lay a whole other world.

It was a stone chamber, not large, but long, narrow, and cramped, with a fissure in the ceiling.

Sunlight streamed down through it, falling on a small mound of earth below.

On the mound, a peculiar Blue Silver Grass plant, crystal-clear like blue crystal and covered in fine golden veins, bathed in the sunlight as it swayed gently.

In that instant, Tang San felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity and warmth from the peculiar Blue Silver Grass.

Tang Hao put Tang San down. His face pale, he braced himself against the wall and coughed up several more mouthfuls of blood before he finally managed to steady himself.

Seeing Tang San's expression, Tang Hao pointed at the Blue Silver Emperor seedling. A trace of guilt flashed through his eyes as he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Little San, this is your mother!"

"After your mother sacrificed herself to me all those years ago, she didn't die completely. She turned into a seed, which I planted here."

"Little San, listen to me... I'm not going to make it. You must remember what I'm about to tell you."

"Dad, you won't die! You'll be all right!"

Hearing Tang Hao's words, Tang San was overcome with grief, and tears streamed down his face.

Tang Hao merely gave a few bitter, self-mocking chuckles. Coughing up blood, he continued.

"There's a recess in this stone chamber with a lead box inside. The box contains the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone your mother left for you."

"After I die, the six Soul Bones I've fused with will also drop out."

"Of those, the left arm bone and right leg bone are inheritance Soul Bones of the Clear Sky Sect. If you get the chance, return them to the sect."

"Keep the others for yourself for now, and see if you can fuse with them."

"Remember, remember!"

"Dad! I don't want any Soul Bones! I just want you to live!"

Tang San cried out, clutching Tang Hao's arm tightly.

But Tang Hao's body had already reached its limit. Once he had finished making his final arrangements, the taut string snapped, and he could no longer suppress his injuries.

After vomiting several great mouthfuls of blood, Tang Hao's vision went black. His body crashed to the ground and convulsed unceasingly, his breathing growing fainter and fainter.

"Dad!!!"

Heartbroken, Tang San knelt on the ground, held Tang Hao's body, and wept bitterly.

And when he thought of how all of this was because of Xu Nuo,

Tang San threw back his head, his eyes scarlet, and let out a heart-rending roar of fury.

"Damn you, Xu Nuo! How dare you get Dad killed!"

"One day, I'll kill you!"

"I, Tang San, swear to the heavens that I will kill you in this lifetime, aaah!!!"

His furious roar echoed through the stone chamber for a long time.

Nearby, although Ah Yin had become a seedling, her soul remained, and she could sense what was happening around her.

Realizing that Tang Hao seemed to be dying, Ah Yin grew anxious.

Two slender vines extended from the Blue Silver Emperor seedling. One wrapped around Tang San's wrist and rubbed it gently, as if comforting him.

The other vine wrapped around Tang San's head, directing him to look at the ground.

"Mother, what's wrong?"

Realizing that his mother had something to tell him, Tang San raised his head with tears blurring his eyes and looked at Ah Yin.

"Do you have something to tell me?"

Ah Yin couldn't speak, but she controlled a vine and began writing on the mound of earth.

"Little San, your father can still be saved."

Seeing those words, Tang San shuddered. The light of hope rekindled in his eyes, and he spoke urgently.

"Mother! Really?!"

"How can I save him? Please tell me!"

Ah Yin continued writing on the ground.

"Quickly, take out the lead box your father mentioned in this room. My Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone is inside. Your father can be saved once he fuses with it."

"A Soul Bone? A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone can save my dad?"

Both startled and delighted, Tang San hurriedly wiped away his tears, activated the Purple Demon Eye, and carefully searched the stone chamber.

With the aid of the Purple Demon Eye,

Tang San soon found the lead box and took it out.

When he opened it,

he saw a right leg bone lying quietly inside. It was as crystal-clear as blue crystal, with what looked like scattered stars within it, and it radiated a vigorous breath of life.

"Mother, I've got the Soul Bone! What should I do next?"

After finding the Soul Bone, Tang San continued to ask urgently.

Ah Yin continued writing.

"Little San, your father has already fused a Soul Bone into his right leg."

"Quickly, cut off your father's lower right leg and make that Soul Bone drop out. Then press this Soul Bone against it and reattach your father's leg."

"I can make this Soul Bone fuse with your father's right leg first and make it grow back."

"Then this Soul Bone's Soul Bone Skill can help your father recover from his injuries."

Seeing those words, Tang San froze.

Cut off Father's right leg?

Tang San began to struggle inwardly.

As his son, he had to cut off his father's leg with his own hands.

That was an act of unfiliality as great as the heavens!

How could he bring himself to do it?

But if he didn't, his father really would die.

At last, Tang San gritted his teeth and made up his mind. From the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges at his waist, he took out a sharp dagger Yu Xiaogang had given him and held it in his hand.

"Dad... forgive me!"

Then Tang San walked over to Tang Hao, took a deep breath, and aimed the dagger at Tang Hao's knee. Gripping it tightly, he cut down with force.

"Aaaah-!"

The excruciating pain drew a piercing scream from the unconscious Tang Hao, who instinctively tried to struggle.

But his gravely injured body could muster no strength at all.

In the end, Tang San forcibly cut off Tang Hao's lower right leg.

Blood gushed out in the process, staining the ground red.

After Tang Hao's lower right leg had been severed,

a ten-thousand-year right leg bone dropped out.

Seeing that his father, Tang Hao, was even closer to death, looking as though he were only one step away from it, Tang San clenched his teeth and couldn't afford to worry about much else.

After putting away the ten-thousand-year right leg bone,

Tang San quickly took out the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone and pressed it against Tang Hao's severed leg. Then he realigned Tang Hao's detached lower leg and pressed it back into place.

At that moment, with Ah Yin's help,

even though Tang Hao had lost consciousness and could not actively fuse with the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Yellow Right Leg Bone,

the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone shone with a dazzling blue light. It seemed to turn into a mass of liquid blue light and merge into the severed leg.

Immediately afterward, the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone's Soul Bone Skill, Wildfire Cannot Burn It Away, the Spring Breeze Brings It Back to Life, activated!

Tang Hao's severed leg instantly grew back into place.

The Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone then absorbed the disordered Soul Power in Tang Hao's body, transformed it into a vast force of life, and began rapidly repairing his body.

A dazzling blue-silver light shone from Tang Hao's entire body. His hidden injuries began to heal, his breathing gradually steadied, and color began to return to his deathly pale face.

After an unknown amount of time,

Tang Hao slowly opened his eyes, his gaze full of confusion, and struggled to get up.

"I'm not dead?"

"Dad!"

Seeing that Tang Hao had recovered, Tang San's eyes reddened. Overjoyed and choking with emotion, he helped Tang Hao up.

"Father, are you all right?"

"The hidden injuries in your body have all healed, haven't they?"

Hearing this, Tang Hao sensed the hidden injuries in his body and found that they really had all healed. He was utterly thrilled and incredulous.

"Little San, all my hidden injuries have healed! How did you do it?"

"What exactly happened while I was unconscious?"

Tang San, also overjoyed, told him everything that had happened.

Upon learning that his wife, Ah Yin, had acted to help him fuse with the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, Tang Hao was filled with guilt.

At the same time, he was quite excited.

All this time, he had refrained from fusing with the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

It wasn't because he cared about Tang San and intended to leave it for him.

The main reason was that he had already fused with a ten-thousand-year right leg bone.

He had no way to fuse with the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone as well.

But unexpectedly, this misfortune had turned into a blessing, and he had actually succeeded in fusing with it.

Tang Hao couldn't help but feel thrilled and excited.

But just as Tang Hao prepared to sense his right leg bone and see what kind of Soul Bone it was, he was dumbfounded.

That's not right!

Where did that great big Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone in my right leg go?!

When Tang Hao sensed his right leg, the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone that should have been fused with it had vanished without a trace!
