Inside the room.
Tang Hao watched as the hundred-thousand-year soul bone was buried into the soil, still feeling uneasy. He couldn't help but proactively show concern for A Yin and asked:
"A Yin, how has that kid Ye Qiu been treating you?"
A Yin shook off two more leaves. She no longer wanted to say much to Tang Hao.
Hearing Tang Hao's question,
A Yin paused for a moment. On her cold face, a trace of gentleness flashed by.
"He treats me very well," A Yin said sincerely, then added another sentence against her conscience, "He respects me very much."
When the words fell,
Thinking of Ye Qiu's occasional offenses toward her, a blush couldn't help but spread across A Yin's pretty face. Fortunately, she did not reveal her true form, and her tone remained normal.
"Is that so…" Tang Hao felt somewhat dissatisfied upon hearing this answer, yet still said, "Since the soul bone can help you, you should stay by my side from now on."
Tang Hao was afraid of seeing A Yin, but even more afraid of losing the hundred-thousand-year soul bone.
A Yin's heart tightened. Fortunately, she had already prepared for this and quickly explained:
"No need. With Ye Qiu's help, I can recover faster and fulfill a mother's responsibility sooner."
Kill that wild bastard and avenge the child!
A Yin silently added in her heart, while continuing aloud:
"Besides, Ye Qiu listens to me very well, and his talent is quite good. In the future, he might become support for Xiao San. My time is almost up."
As she spoke,
The last two leaves on the Blue Silver Emperor fell sparsely onto the ground.
The slender Blue Silver Emperor was slowly shrinking.
Tang Hao once again felt a wave of guilt.
A Yin was putting in such wholehearted effort for Xiao San—how could he waste her good intentions?!
"A Yin, you're right. I was narrow-minded."
"Actually, I was thinking the same. That kid Ye Qiu does indeed have talent."
The tiny flames flickering on the Blue Silver Emperor's body before him flickered uncertainly.
"Mmm… he will definitely be able to help me."
Before A Yin could finish speaking, the light completely dimmed, and there was no further movement.
Tang Hao knelt down, staring at A Yin before him—now like the little grass she had been years ago—unable to speak for a long time.
This scene was so similar to a sacrifice, the silence after ultimate sublimation.
She had fallen to this state for his sake and Tang San's.
Tang Hao reached out, then withdrew his hand. In the end, he still decided to follow A Yin's words.
"A Yin, I'll listen to you."
As if hearing Tang Hao's voice, the Blue Silver Emperor swayed twice.
Tang Hao let out a breath. The pain on his face eased slightly as he shakily stood up, feeling as if the world had changed.
Outside.
Ye Qiu, who was leaning against a tree, suddenly heard Tang Hao's hoarse voice by his ear.
Ye Qiu quickly stood up and walked toward the room.
Late at night.
As Ye Qiu got up and headed toward the dormitory,
In the distance, a white-dressed少女 with a smiling face spotted his figure.
Ning Rongrong, who had been hopping forward cheerfully on tiptoe, stopped. Looking in Ye Qiu's direction, she frowned slightly.
Pursing her lips, a bit puzzled.
"What is this dead liar doing outside so late? He's not secretly wiping away tears, is he?"
After muttering,
Ning Rongrong was just about to step toward Ye Qiu's dormitory.
The night breeze brushed her face, carrying a hint of alcohol. Her light steps paused, and Ning Rongrong couldn't help raising her hand to cradle her burning, tender face.
After hesitating for a moment,
She still decided not to go over.
Her cheeks flushed, her slightly tipsy face puffed a little as she let out a娇哼:
"Hmph! This young lady will take pity on you and come find you for a late-night snack tomorrow night!"
As the words fell,
Ning Rongrong hummed a little tune and turned away, mischief and a trace of triumph hidden in her turquoise eyes.
Thinking of Oscar, whom she had drunk under the table and who was still lying at the entrance of someone else's shop,
Ning Rongrong felt extremely satisfied.
If it weren't disgusting, she would've even wanted to find a few burly men for that bitch Oscar.
Stuff him to death!
"Uncle Haozi, what happened to her?"
On the other side, as soon as Ye Qiu entered the dormitory, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Pointing at the shrunken Blue Silver Emperor potted plant, he voiced his confusion toward Tang Hao, whose eyes were red and appearance disheveled.
"Kid, take good care of her. If anything happens to her… I'll make you pay!"
Tang Hao's voice was hoarse. He didn't want to stay any longer. Raising his hand, he pulled the cloak back over his face. Without explaining anything to Ye Qiu, he turned to leave.
Ye Qiu looked at Tang Hao, feeling strange in his heart, but still clenched his hand tightly in midair and nodded seriously.
"Don't worry, Uncle Haozi. She was personally handed to me by you. I'll naturally put effort into taking good care of her—watering her carefully and fertilizing her properly."
Tang Hao lifted his bloodshot eyes and examined Ye Qiu, then nodded in satisfaction.
After so many years of wandering, he had seen all kinds of monsters and demons. This kid before him had clear, spirited eyes and did not avoid his gaze at all—there was no sign of lying.
What he didn't know was—
Ye Qiu truly wanted to take care of A Yin, turning the soil for her daily, watering her, and cultivating her with care.
Because of this,
Tang Hao couldn't see anything amiss at all.
"Is Uncle Haozi leaving again?"
Ye Qiu asked softly as he watched Tang Hao walk toward him.
"Mmm."
Tang Hao responded with a heavy nasal sound. Walking up to Ye Qiu, he raised his hand and grabbed Ye Qiu's shoulder. His cloudy eyes carried a warning as his lips trembled, and his unpleasant hoarse voice slowly entered Ye Qiu's ears.
"Kid, control yourself. Things you shouldn't take…"
As Tang Hao spoke, his gaze turned domineering, looking down from above as the pressure of a Titled Douluo spread outward. His hand slowly exerted force as he spat out the final words.
"Things you shouldn't take… don't take them!"
"Uncle Haozi, what are you talking about?!"
Ye Qiu sucked in a sharp breath in pain, clutching his shoulder with a pained expression, feigning ignorance despite understanding clearly, and looked at him in confusion.
Tang Hao didn't reply, only stared straight at Ye Qiu for a long time.
After quite a while, he finally released his strength, patted Ye Qiu's shoulder, and encouraged him:
"Get stronger properly. In the future, go with Xiao San to the Star Dou Great Forest to take revenge. I'll protect you from the shadows."
Click!
The door opened, cold air mixed with the stench of alcohol rushed in, and Tang Hao was already gone from the room.
Ye Qiu rubbed his shoulder,
Barred his teeth in pain.
While cursing inwardly, he didn't dare let his guard down. Activating the Purple Demon Eyes—his cave dwelling's soul-power imaging ability—he scanned the surroundings.
Turning around, he first closed the door.
Ye Qiu immediately walked to the bedside and squatted down, reaching out to gently touch A Yin.
The blue-golden little grass stretched out tender leaves, wrapping around Ye Qiu's fingertips as if softly sucking on them.
"Ye Qiu!"
A Yin's joyful, dependent voice echoed in his mind.
Her impatience, her mixed emotions of sweetness, sourness, bitterness, and spice—Ye Qiu understood them completely.
"He hasn't left yet. We'll talk later."
Ye Qiu softly comforted her.
The leaves that were about to surge out immediately retracted quietly.
"Then you'd better come in quickly."
"Okay."
Ye Qiu gently rolled A Yin's leaf between his fingers—half soothing, half teasing.
Wishing everyone a happy life!
