Ah Yin hesitated slightly when faced with Xiao Tian's Spirit Soul Contract request.
If she became Xiao Tian's Spirit Soul, wouldn't that mean losing her freedom?
But then she thought, what if she remained as she was?
She was no different from losing her freedom now, wasn't she?
Thus, a faint starlight emanated from her Blue Silver Grass body and gradually settled into the contract in the air.
The contract was complete!
And Ah Yin's original Blue Silver Grass disappeared from the flowerpot, reappearing in its original form within Xiao Tian's spiritual space, though it looked somewhat transparent due to its lower age.
Da Ming and Er Ming also returned to Xiao Tian's spiritual space.
Xiao Tian sat cross-legged on the bed again, and the four of them began conversing in the spiritual space.
Ah Yin's tone was filled with a sense of loss, yet her words remained gentle, "Greetings, Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python."
Ah Yin politely greeted Da Ming and Er Ming.
Er Ming said magnanimously, "Blue Silver Emperor, there's no need to be so polite. Although you need to re-cultivate, with Xiao Tian's help, recovering your original cultivation is only a matter of time. We'll call you Ah Yin, and you can just call us Da Ming and Er Ming."
After a few polite exchanges, they finally got to the main topic.
"Ah Yin, now that you can communicate with us, we want to hear your thoughts. If you re-transform in the future, do you still intend to return to Tang Hao's side?"
Da Ming asked a crucial question.
If Ah Yin was still deluded and wanted to return to Tang Hao's side, there would be no need to help her; they could simply dissolve the Spirit Soul Contract on the spot.
Ah Yin shook her head and said, "I heard everything you said just now, but there's always been one doubt in my mind: why did Tang Hao become so decadent after that incident?"
Uh…
Regarding this point, it stumped Da Ming and Er Ming directly; they truly couldn't think of any other reasons.
Xiao Tian said indifferently, "It is said that after that incident, Spirit Hall, unable to find Tang Hao's whereabouts, launched an attack on Clear Sky Sect, and the Sect Master of Clear Sky Sect at that time was directly angered to death. That person was Tang Hao's father!"
The three of them: …
"Ah Yin, do you think Tang Hao has a strong sense of belonging to Clear Sky Sect?" Xiao Tian asked.
The three people present were not fools; Xiao Tian had already made it so obvious.
Ah Yin's heart was filled with complexity; having been with Tang Hao for so long, she knew that he had an extremely strong sense of belonging to the Sect.
The reason he hadn't returned to the Sect all these years was because he always believed that the incident back then was his fault, leading to Clear Sky Sect's seclusion.
It turned out that sealing off the mountain was just a facade; he didn't go back because of his guilt towards his father!
"But… even if Tang Hao schemed against me like this, I still have Tang San, my son. A son is always innocent, isn't he?"
Ah Yin retorted weakly to Xiao Tian and the other two.
Even if Tang Hao had schemed against her, she at least had such a powerful son!
Xiao Tian: …
"Ah Yin, don't you think your son is strange? He knows so many self-created Spirit Abilities, and he also makes things called Hidden Weapons."
Xiao Tian said indifferently.
He believed it was necessary to shatter all of Ah Yin's illusions at this moment.
Better a short pain than a long one!
Ah Yin: ???
Ah Yin frowned and said, "Xiao Tian, what do you mean by that?"
Xiao Tian said, "What I mean is, Tang San might not be your son."
Ah Yin said in disbelief, "No, impossible! What evidence do you have?!"
"And what's wrong with him knowing so many self-created Spirit Abilities and making Hidden Weapons? Xiao Tian, don't you also know many self-created Spirit Abilities?"
Ah Yin retorted directly.
Xiao Tian shook his head and said, "Back then, you two faced the pursuit of several Titled Douluo, numerous Spirit Douluo, and Spirit Saints from Spirit Hall. In that situation, you two couldn't even protect yourselves. Tang San was just a newborn baby at that time. How could he have survived that battle?
Are you sure Tang Hao could protect him at all times? Even a random aftermath of a battle could have killed Tang San at that time!
"It's just that you're still in the dark. Tang Hao probably discovered Tang San's abnormality long ago, but he just didn't explicitly say it. After all, that body is indeed your child's, but the soul might have been replaced."
"You mean Tang San was Parasite? No, you and Parasite are somewhat different…"
Da Ming knew that in the Spirit Beast world, some special Spirit Beasts possessed the ability to Parasite. A typical example was the Dark Night Bat-type Spirit Beast, but Tang San's situation was clearly not that.
Ah Yin's face grew paler: "No! No, unless you prove it to me! And you can't clearly explain your own situation, can you?"
Because of the contract with Xiao Tian, Ah Yin and the other two actually knew that Xiao Tian was not as simple as he appeared on the surface. He must have either obtained a certain powerful individual's inheritance or had a powerful individual as a teacher behind him; otherwise, how could Xiao Tian know everything at such a young age?
Xiao Tian didn't want to argue with Ah Yin's question, he just said a few words indifferently.
"My situation is quite special; you'll know when the time is right. But I can tell you very clearly that I am me, but Tang San may not necessarily be Tang San.
As for the self-created Spirit Abilities you mentioned, I can also explain. Besides being an opportunity from my own inheritance, it's also something I've gained from constantly cultivating swordsmanship all these years. Xiao Wu can prove it!
But what about Tang San? His self-created Spirit Abilities are all based on himself. Have you ever seen him create a Spirit Ability related to his Spirit? Don't use the excuse of it being time-consuming! Would creating Spirit Abilities through one's own Spirit be more difficult than those relying on the body, like Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track?
And those Hidden Weapons, seemingly peculiar, but upon closer examination, aren't they just sneak attacks? If it were because his inherent Spirit had such characteristics, then there's nothing to say, but what's the reality?
His Spirits are Blue Silver Grass and Clear Sky Hammer. What prompted him to think of making Hidden Weapons? The only possibility is that before he awakened his Spirit, he already knew the concept of Hidden Weapons, and through learning forging from Tang Hao, he simply made them!
How old was Tang San at that time? Ah Yin, your true body was near Saint Spirit Village at that time, constantly observing Tang San's every move. You didn't notice such strange behavior? Think carefully again, Tang San's Purple Demon Eye requires absorbing that wisp of purple qi every morning for cultivation. When did Tang San start doing this in Saint Spirit Village?"
