Douluo: Yu Hao Pan Tang San

Chapter 234, Section 253: Xiao Wu and A Yin

Titan merely smiled at Gu Rong's explanation and said, "Your Majesty Gu Rong, even if you hadn't appeared, I wouldn't have been able to bring myself to do it." He then looked at Tang San with a servile expression and said, "It's truly a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple." Immediately afterward, he knelt before Tang San and said, "This old servant Titan greets Young Master."

At the same time, Titan shouted fiercely at Tyrone and Tyno behind him, "His name is Tang San, he is the young master of our Power Clan, do you know that! Why don't you kneel down right now?"

Upon hearing this, Tailong and Tainuo reluctantly knelt down before Tang San.

"What a good dog!" Tang San thought to himself, but he still said with trepidation, "Senior, what are you doing? You're really making this junior feel ashamed."

Titan said, "Young Master, this courtesy cannot be disregarded."

"Rituals must not be abandoned, indeed, rituals must not be abandoned." Xiao Wu, hiding in the shadows, watched this scene with reddened eyes.

On the night her mother died, Xiao Wu remembered not only Tang Hao, but also Titan, that old dog.

Now that Titan has confirmed Tang San's identity and even honored him as the young master, there's no doubt that Tang San is the son of his enemy, Tang Hao.

On the other side, Ning Fengzhi arrived shortly after. Gu Rong told Ning Fengzhi about Tang San, and then he said, "Tang San's talent is truly astonishing. If he is Tang Hao's son, then his mother is that 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor. Therefore, his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul must not be an ordinary Blue Silver Grass. Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to coexist with the Clear Sky Hammer. It is even highly likely that it is the Blue Silver Emperor."

At this point, Gu Rong paused and said, "The Clear Sky Hammer, the Blue Silver Emperor, and innate full soul power—Tang San's talent is simply too dazzling. Sect Master, should I—" Gu Rong made a throat-slitting gesture.

Ning Fengzhi shook his head, pushed up his glasses, and a wise glint flashed in his eyes as he analyzed, "No need, Uncle Gu, have you forgotten where our greatest threat comes from? Above us is the Spirit Hall, and below us is the Starfire Academy. Tang San's appearance is not a bad thing for us; on the contrary, it is a good thing. As long as we protect Tang San and help him grow, and give full play to his superior talent, he will become a sharp sword to resist the Spirit Hall's dictatorial rule and the ambitions of the Starfire Academy, these lowly people, to overthrow the order!"

After thinking about it, Gu Rong realized that it made sense, so he didn't bring up his previous suggestion again.

After rejecting Gu Rong's suggestion to eliminate the threat, Ning Fengzhi and Tang San officially began a deal on hidden weapons, hoping to arm the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School with them.

Ning Fengzhi attempted to acquire the technology for manufacturing hidden weapons, but little did he know that he was facing an old fox who was even older than him. He hadn't even managed to outmaneuver Tang San in the last time, even after Tang San's rebirth, so how could he possibly succeed in this life?
Therefore, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School signed a purchase agreement with Tang San to acquire Tang San's hidden weapons at a cost dozens of times higher than the manufacturing cost of the hidden weapons.

Afterwards, Gu Rong examined the hidden weapon in Ning Fengzhi's hand and said to Ning Fengzhi with veiled sarcasm, "Sect Master, this thing is quite powerful, but it can be seen that if the technology is mastered, the cost will not be very high. Tang San is not fair; he asked for an exorbitant price and ripped us off."

"Money is nothing to my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile. "But being able to befriend a future powerhouse through money and establish a bond of mutual benefit is worthwhile in my opinion. Tang San's talent and aptitude also qualify me to invest in him."

“That makes sense,” Gu Rong nodded.

That night, after Tang San escorted Xiao Wu to her room at school, he went to cultivate in his own room, which was divided into four sections: center, east, west, south, and north. That night, Xiao Wu did not go to other rooms to meet her men or cultivate with them; instead, she tossed and turned in bed.

She recalled the scene of meeting Ah Yin in the Sunset Forest.

"Hello, Xiao Wu, my name is A Yin. Like you, I was once a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Also, Tang San is my biological son," A Yin introduced herself.

Xiao Wu looked at Ah Yin warily and asked, "So, you're here to stand up for Tang San?"

Ah Yin shook her head and said, "No, do you know who Tang San's father is?"

Xiao Wu's thoughts drifted back to a few years ago, to the time when she and Tang San returned to Holy Soul Village from the Notting City Soul Master Academy. It was then that Xiao Wu learned the name of Tang San's father.

"Tang Hao." Xiao Wu looked at A Yin, and then thought of Tang Hao.

In the world of spirit beasts, she recalled the legend of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor. It was said that after the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor transformed into a human, he met the twin stars of the Clear Sky Sect and fell in love with them. Xiao Wu did not know the specifics of the process, but she knew that Ah Yin's identity was eventually recognized, and she was forced to sacrifice herself to one of them during the human hunt.

"Tang Hao of Haotian Sect, could it be?" Xiao Wu suddenly realized.

“That’s right, Tang Hao is the Tang Hao you know, the one who killed your mother, and Tang San is the son of your mother’s killer,” Ah Yin said.

"So, your goal is still to settle scores with me, right? How could I have fooled your son like that?" Xiao Wu said.

Ah Yin sneered, "Tang San was born of me, but I don't acknowledge him as my son. Would you like to hear my story of what happened to me in the past?"

Although both of them are transformed soul beasts, Ah Yin's strength far surpasses Xiao Wu's. Faced with this situation, Xiao Wu could only nod.

Ah Yin began to recount her past. She traveled the continent and encountered Tang Xiao and Tang Hao. Faced with their advances, Ah Yin ultimately chose Tang Xiao, but this angered the beast Tang Hao (even the gentle Ah Yin made no attempt to hide the hatred on her face when mentioning Tang Hao's name). Tang Hao ambushed her brother Tang Xiao, crippling him (when mentioning Tang Xiao, Ah Yin's expression became utterly devoid of emotion).
After that, Tang Hao kidnapped Ah Yin and eventually forced her to give birth to Tang San. On the day Tang San was born, Ah Yin's identity was discovered by the elders of the Clear Sky Sect, so the Clear Sky Sect launched a soul hunt against her. Then, for the sake of the child he had given birth to, Tang Hao did not hesitate to fight against the sect and eventually committed crimes such as harming his fellow disciples and patricide.

In the end, he sacrificed himself for Tang Xiao.

Hearing this, Xiao Wu looked at A Yin and said, "So, you hate Tang San because Tang Hao forced you to give birth to him. But I don't believe that Tang San is the child you carried for ten months. In my opinion, even if you hate him, a mother's nature wouldn't make you hate this child that much."
