Douluo Continent Villain Simulator: Persecuting Qian Renxue at the Start

Chapter 135 Ah Yin's Wavering

He ignored the disappointed passersby behind him and the guys who wanted to catch up and ask him something.

After leaving ten gold soul coins as a token of gratitude, Su Cheng took Ah Yin and left the place in a few flashes.

Next, he will go to find the Blue Silver King to advance to the Soul King level.

"How have you been feeling living alone in Tiandou City these past few days?"

"..."

Ah Yin fell silent upon hearing this.

Su Cheng naturally didn't let her experience life unprepared; he gave her plenty of gold soul coins.

Unfortunately, he was completely scammed not long afterward.

In a place like Tiandou City, apart from a small group of people at the very top of the pyramid, no one dares to easily commit robbery.

But a powerhouse of that level obviously wouldn't care about a few gold soul coins.

If you can't rob it, can't you at least cheat it?

After observing for a while, some people noticed that this excessively beautiful woman often spent money to help ordinary people.

They also frequently spent money from the slave market to buy slaves who seemed to have "pitiful" backgrounds and then released them.

So they fabricated a "slave children rescue organization" and swindled her out of all the hundreds of gold soul coins she had.

By the time she realized what was happening, those people had already vanished.

Fortunately, Ah Yin has no need to eat. She can maintain her body by instinctively absorbing the essence of plants. Otherwise, she would probably have returned to her soul form and entered the Longevity Sword long ago.

However, these events clearly dealt her a heavy blow, but she was too embarrassed to confide in Su Cheng.

After running out of money, she didn't know what she could do, so she could only wander aimlessly on the streets.

After a while, the kind woman at the fruit shop noticed him and took him in, thinking he was a homeless and pitiful person.

Such people are not uncommon in Tiandou City.

Every day, countless people become rich in this capital city, while countless others fall into poverty overnight.

However, this turned out to be a lucky accident.

In this shop, she met countless ordinary people of all kinds and matured a lot.

"Come on, tell me what's happened to you these past few days. It seems you've suffered quite a setback."

"..."

Seeing that she didn't respond, Su Cheng chuckled and said, "My silly sister, I bet all the money I gave you is gone by now, isn't it?"

"..."

Ah Yin raised her head and opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.

She found herself unable to refute the argument and lowered her head again.

"Heh, money can be a powerful motivator."

Su Cheng glanced at her and knew he had guessed correctly.

However, a hundred gold soul coins meant nothing to him, and he was too lazy to investigate the reason for it.

Then, looking ahead, he said, seemingly casually, "This is just a few gold soul coins. How much do you think it's worth compared to a 100,000-year-old soul beast?"

"..." Ah Yin was taken aback upon hearing this, glanced at Su Cheng, then turned her head away and remained silent.

"After all that, if you went back to the time before the sacrifice, would you still dare to wander around the world?"

"..."

She remained silent.

The answer is no.

Su Cheng, however, was not about to let her off so easily, and continued to ask, "So, in your heart, is your lover's safety more important, or your dream of exploring the world? By the way, do you know how old Tang Hao was back then? Even someone my age understands this, how could Tang Hao not understand it?"

Then, glancing at Ah Yin who had been silent the whole way, he added, "But compared to your age, you're probably just a little kid, haha."

"Su Cheng!"

Ah Yin glared angrily at Su Cheng.

That last sentence was a bit too much.

Among the soul beast race, age is not calculated in this way.

After taking human form, it is equivalent to being reborn as a human, so naturally, one should calculate age based on human years.

"Ah Yin, have you ever thought that Tang Hao has actually gotten used to it by now?"

Ignoring her anger, Su Cheng continued walking and talking without stopping.

"Have we grown accustomed to your adventures, your sacrifices, and your silent, unassuming presence behind them?"

"..."

"So, when you sacrificed yourself at the last moment, what did you ask for? Did you hope for his regret? Did you expect him to know how to cherish what he had? Or did you simply hope that they could live?"

These words, when they reached Ah Yin's ears, immediately stirred up a multitude of thoughts in her mind.

She hadn't thought about any of that at the time.

"Is there any use in regretting something after you've lost it? But I can tell you, Tang Hao is indeed very regretful. He drowns his sorrows in alcohol all day long, like a useless person. Perhaps over the years, he has thought more than once that he would rather die than let you sacrifice yourself. Of course, maybe it's just a thought."

"Stop talking..."

Ah Yin shook her head, her face pale, and looked at Su Cheng with pleading and bewildered eyes.

I don't know if it's because of heartache or fear that hearing these words will not bring me much joy, anger, or even worry.

Su Cheng kept his eyes fixed ahead, not looking at her.

"Do you know that if I hadn't appeared, you might have had the chance to be resurrected one day in the future? Tang Hao's 'son' is not simple; he knows a lot and will treat you as his own parents."

He stopped in his tracks, turned and stared into Ah Yin's bewildered and helpless eyes.

"A-Yin, if the mistake can be made up for, can you be forgiven?"

Ah Yin's face was pale, and even her lips were bloodless.

Everyone makes mistakes. Making mistakes is not shameful, but sometimes the reasons for making mistakes are shameful.

Su Cheng said calmly, "Ask yourself. I can't give you the answers to these questions."

After leaving the city, Su Cheng looked at Ah Yin.

"Let's go find the Blue Silver King. Don't forget your promise."

Ah Yin sighed silently, temporarily setting aside those chaotic and disordered thoughts.

The sea of ​​emotions that had finally calmed down was once again stirred up by Su Cheng with ease.

After thinking for a moment, she pointed in a direction.

Then he said softly, "If you can't succeed, you can't hurt them."

She knew what Su Cheng's purpose was in this trip, but she didn't really think it was going well.

This is not to underestimate Su Cheng.

It's no exaggeration to say that Ah Yin is the person who understands Su Cheng's true strength the most, besides Su Cheng himself.

But she also knew about the Blue Silver Grass clan.

For someone like Su Cheng who possesses a sword spirit, the Blue Silver Grass Forest is of no help whatsoever, not even with the Five Elements Domain.

"Don't worry, there are plenty of soul beasts in the world, I don't need to fixate on just one Blue Silver Grass," Su Cheng said frankly.

Turning around, she saw Ah Yin looking worried and couldn't help but purse her lips.

"However, your mentality of thinking that all soul beasts are one family is really a bit ridiculous."

"Humans hunting spirit beasts is like wolves eating rabbits and sheep eating grass; the law of the jungle is perfectly normal. Even among spirit beasts, it's not always peaceful; life-or-death battles over territory, cultivation, and food are commonplace."

"Don't talk as if there are only two camps in the world: soul beasts and humans. Even among you soul beasts, don't the herbivorous Soft Bone Rabbits feed on your Blue Silver Grass?"

"If we have to make a division, it would be more accurate to say that beings with spirituality and true self-awareness are grouped into one camp."

Ah Yin was stunned, then turned her head and looked at Su Cheng with surprise.

This was the first time she had ever heard of such an argument.

"But I have no pity for soul beasts; I will kill any soul beast that has taken human form."

Su Cheng grinned, revealing his gleaming white teeth.

Ah Yin felt a chill run down her spine.

He immediately glared back and shouted, "Then why were you spouting all that high-sounding nonsense?"

"What a joke, you shouldn't be asking me this."

Su Cheng curled his lips into a smile, a cruel glint in his eyes.

"That's just how the world is. Do you think I want to obtain a soul ring by hunting soul beasts? This kind of advancement path disgusts me."

"I don't even want to eat immortal herbs. If it weren't for the bottleneck in leveling up, why would I bother hunting soul beasts to help myself advance?"

"This has nothing to do with faction."

"To tell you the truth, if the way for a Soul Master to advance is to kill and obtain a Soul Ring, then I still won't hesitate to strike when the time comes."

"..." These words left Ah Yin speechless for a moment.

Su Cheng sneered, "In my opinion, it is unreasonable for people to rely on soul beasts and soul rings to advance in order to advance."

"The relationship between these two is not a normal cycle of the heavens, but more like a rule imposed on this world by some special will. However, for me now, I cannot resist it."

"You'd better pray that I succeed this time and find a way to advance naturally without hunting soul beasts."

Upon hearing this, Ah Yin felt a sudden chill run down her spine and asked in a hoarse voice, "You want to go to the Blue Silver Grass Forest for this, not just to condense your fifth spirit ring?"

"What do you think?" Su Cheng turned around and headed ahead in the direction Ah Yin had just pointed.

Watching his retreating figure, Ah Yin couldn't help but murmur to herself, "Su Cheng, what kind of person are you really...?"

Several days later, Su Cheng followed Ah Yin to an unknown forest.

Before Ah Yin could even speak, he keenly sensed the strange harmony in the surrounding environment.

It is like a domain, yet it transcends a domain.

If I had to describe it, it would be like a fragmented, alternative little world.

Su Cheng immediately closed his eyes.

The five elements spread outwards, and the vertical lines between his eyebrows flickered intermittently.

Blue Silver Grass is an extremely common plant in the Douluo Continent, not much different from ordinary weeds that can be found everywhere.

But here, only Blue Silver Grass exists.

As Su Cheng gradually immersed himself in this world, the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, which had been dormant in his right leg for a long time, suddenly began to slowly emit a faint blue light.

Ah Yin, standing next to him, also took a deep breath at the same time.

Her feelings at this moment were far more profound than Su Cheng's; her gentle eyes were filled with longing and affection.

Here, all of them were once her people, and they all regard her as their mother.

Even though this body doesn't actually possess the true Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, she can still feel that connection to her flesh and blood.

A deep sense of filial piety emanated from the forest.

It was as if a wanderer who had been away from home for many years had finally returned to his mother's embrace.

Feeling wronged, moved, surprised, nostalgic...

Countless emotions were silently pouring out to her.

As Ah Yin, one of the central axes of the Five Elements Realm, gradually immersed herself in the world of Blue Silver Grass, Su Cheng also quickly merged with this small world with the help of the Realm.

At that moment, a voice suddenly rang out in his mind without warning.

"My king, my great king, is it really you? You have finally come to me, thank God..."

These words were addressed not only to Su Cheng, but also to Ah Yin, who was standing beside him.

Suddenly, a powerful spiritual force emanated from the peaceful and tranquil little world and became entangled with Su Cheng.

"Your Majesty, please come to me, may I?" The voice seemed to grow more urgent, filled with intense longing.

Without hesitation, Su Cheng got up and ran straight into the forest.

Ah Yin was somewhat surprised at this moment.

She originally thought that she would need to act as a link to connect their spiritual powers, but she did not expect that Su Cheng would be able to directly feel the Blue Silver King's summons.

Upon entering the forest, Su Cheng sprang to his feet and quickly moved forward in the direction guided by the spirit.

Wherever he went, the blue silver grass on the ground seemed to be excitedly calling out, swaying gently in rhythm, as if dancing joyfully for his arrival.

This forest is not large, but the plants here look very ancient, as if they have been there for a long time.

Towering trees that pierce the clouds are everywhere, and even the sun's rays have difficulty penetrating through these dense plants to reach the ground.

After running at high speed for about half an hour, the spiritual connection he was in became exceptionally clear.

"My king, I am here." The spiritual call appeared again, seemingly mixed with a hint of nervousness amidst the excitement.

After passing through two ancient trees that would require at least several people to encircle, the enormous Blue Silver King appeared before Su Cheng.

The long, slender vines climbed upwards, intertwining and reaching about ten meters into the air, appearing as if they were formed from countless vines condensed together. Each of those vines was as thick as an average person's waist and had a diameter of over a foot.

Its entire body shimmered with a crystal-clear blue light, and the Blue Silver Grass grew exceptionally lushly around it.

At the very center of the vine, where it had solidified, there was a mark resembling a human face, revealing a distinct smile.

An extremely powerful aura was released without reservation. From the face in the center, strong mental fluctuations burst forth and rippled joyfully around Su Cheng's body.

"Blue Silver King?" Su Cheng stared intently at the enormous vine in front of him.

"Your Majesty, you have finally arrived." The human face entwined in the center of the vines opened its mouth and spoke in human language.

"Your king is here."

As Su Cheng finished speaking, Ah Yin appeared beside him.

"Your Majesty!" The man's face showed extreme surprise. "Is it really you?!"

He seemed somewhat unable to believe what he was seeing.

The aura that Ah Yin had previously seemed ambiguous was actually the aura of the Blue Silver Emperor, but it was on Su Cheng that it sensed a very distinct aura of the Blue Silver Emperor.

But upon closer inspection, two drops of blue liquid flowed down from where the human face's eyes were.

Then came extreme anger.

A high-pitched and painful roar soared into the sky.

Even something as gentle as it is has its untouchable Achilles' heel!

"Who?! Who has caused you such suffering!"

Su Cheng felt the terrifying mental pressure beside him, and his expression became slightly solemn.

Although this powerful and concentrated hostility was not directed at him, the feeling of being at odds with the world, even with just a slight contact, was not pleasant.

But he wasn't too afraid.

It wasn't because he trusted Ah Yin, but because he was confident he could escape from here.

In this small world, the Blue Silver King's strength is indeed far greater than his.

But keeping him here is far from enough.

The Blue Silver King has limited methods of killing; his strength lies in his mental power and restraint.

However, this aspect is precisely what his True Sight Eyes can firmly restrain, allowing him to break through the encirclement by focusing on a single point.

Seeing the Blue Silver King with tears streaming down his face and an extremely angry expression, Ah Yin was also moved.

Perhaps she was too narrow-minded in the past.

Trapped by human emotions, she completely forgot her identity and responsibilities, and forgot her loyal subjects who always thought of her.

She shook her head and said softly, "Those things are all in the past. You don't need to worry about them. I've already let them go. Besides, Su Cheng will help me truly resurrect in the future."

He then turned to look at Su Cheng, "Is that so?"

Ah Yin's gaze was sincere like that of an innocent child, and contained no threatening intent whatsoever.

She has never been the type to threaten others.

The two had spent a considerable amount of time together, but the events they experienced during that time remained vivid in her memory. Throughout this period, Su Cheng had never lied to her.

Upon hearing this, Su Cheng also turned to look at Ah Yin.

His eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment he said in a deep voice, "I can't guarantee it. But I will do my best."

"That's enough." Ah Yin smiled faintly.

Turning back to look at the enormous Blue Silver King before him, he solemnly said, "Let's perform the awakening ritual for him."

I've written 10,000 chapters today, but I still owe 8 chapters.
