Chapter 36: A Yin Has Come?

Tang Hao knelt quietly in the stone chamber, his gaze hollow. His clothes were filthy, covered in mud, and his similarly dirty hands were riddled with numerous wounds. Blood oozed from the cuts.

His disheveled hair was stained with white, and in just a few short hours, Tang Hao had become utterly exhausted.

It was hard to imagine that the youngest Title Douluo in history, known for battling multiple Title Douluo single-handedly, the Haotian Douluo, could end up in such a state.

In front of Tang Hao lay a completely withered Blue Silver Grass.

This Blue Silver Grass had entirely withered, from its leaves to its roots, all yellow and lifeless.

All of this had happened in just a matter of hours, and Tang Hao had witnessed it all.

"A Yin, I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!" A heartbroken Tang Hao spat out a mouthful of blood, watering the leaves of the Blue Silver Grass.

"It's all my fault. A Yin, I've harmed you!" Tang Hao cried out in anguish. At this moment, he even hated himself. He hated himself for not coming to see her sooner. He hated himself for not being able to find A Yin a better place!

Gently stroking the withered grass leaves, Tang Hao's heart ached.

"Wait, something's not right." Suddenly, Tang Hao's sorrowful expression froze.

His martial spirit unexpectedly surged forth uncontrollably.

Tang Hao raised his right hand, and instantly, a black light gathered in his palm, transforming into a massive Haotian Hammer.

Simultaneously, nine soul rings quietly appeared around him—two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red.

These soul rings hovered around Tang Hao's body, completely shrouding him. However, his last soul ring, the ten-thousand-year soul ring, was exceptionally active.

The ten-thousand-year soul ring bounced energetically around Tang Hao, as if it were out of control.

At the same time, a familiar yet strange sensation began to emerge in his heart.

It was a familiar aura, so familiar it drew him in.

"A Yin!" Upon uttering these words, Tang Hao's tall figure instantly stood upright.

His previously vacant gaze became clear. He could sense A Yin's presence.

"A Yin, is that you? I can feel your aura." Tears welled up in Tang Hao's eyes.

"A Yin, is that really you? Have you come back to life? Why don't you come out to see me?" Trembling, Tang Hao fumbled and retrieved a black box from somewhere on his body.

Gently opening the black box, a powerful, condensed energy was released. Although the energy was potent, it was surprisingly gentle.

At the moment the box was opened, the entire world rippled with energy. The surrounding plants trembled slightly, rejoicing in celebration.

Inside the box lay a peculiar bone.

The bone was entirely translucent with a blue-gold hue, appearing as if specks of starlight flickered within it. Most remarkably, it emanated a sense of life, as if this bone possessed a life of its own.

If there were anyone with keen eyes present, they would surely be astonished.

Because this was a soul bone. Moreover, only a ten-thousand-year soul beast would possess such a magnificent life force; the quality of this soul bone was undoubtedly over ten thousand years!

At this moment, the soul bone pulsated with a flickering light, radiating countless dazzling blue-gold beams, as if celebrating something.

"A Yin, is that really you? Have you come back to life? Although I don't know what has happened to you, I can clearly feel your existence." As he caressed the radiant blue soul bone, Tang Hao let his tears fall freely onto its surface.

After a long moment of expression, Tang Hao finally stopped.

Looking at the unusually vibrant soul bone in his hand, he suddenly felt a wave of happiness wash over him. His once lifeless heart began to stir with vigor.

He had a premonition that A Yin must have returned. Although he didn't know the reason for her revival, the fact that she had come back was enough to bring him joy. He no longer cared about the specifics.

His gaze returned to the withered Blue Silver Grass, and the sorrow in his eyes faded. He finally understood why the seed A Yin had given him would wither. It was because A Yin had come back to life.

This seed was A Yin's life seed given to him. Now that A Yin had returned, it had lost its meaning to survive.

Having cleared his thoughts, Tang Hao felt a sense of relief. He could sense A Yin's presence through the soul ring she had sacrificed to him.

He carefully placed the withered Blue Silver Grass into a gentle box. With firm strides, he exited.

Heading west.

He could feel A Yin's direction through his soul rings.

…

Nuoding City

Zhao Ming had no idea about Tang Hao's arrival; he was currently explaining some matters to A Yin.

"Do you understand everything I've explained to you?" Zhao Ming asked.

"Mm-hmm. I understand everything," A Yin nodded repeatedly, indicating that she was clear on the details.

"Good. Then let me test you. If Tang Hao asks how you came back to life, what will you say?" Zhao Ming inquired.

"I will say that I was saved by a powerful person, but that person did not reveal their name," A Yin thought for a moment and replied.

In fact, when the system implanted memories in A Yin, it included the memory of her revival. The one who had given her a second chance was Zhao Ming's parents, and since then, A Yin had become Zhao Ming's personal maid.

"And if you encounter Tang Hao, how will you reclaim your soul ring and soul bone?" Zhao Ming continued questioning.

"I will say that only by reclaiming my soul ring and soul bone can my life continue, and that is when I will truly come back to life."

"And after you obtain the soul ring?"

"I will seize the opportunity to ambush him," A Yin thought for a moment and continued.

"What if Tang Hao wants to share a room with you?"

"Zhi'er belongs to the Young Master. Anyone who dares to have ill intentions toward Zhi'er will not be spared. Zhi'er will not allow anyone to do such things to her." Upon hearing Zhao Ming's words, A Yin's face turned pale, her body slightly trembling, and tears threatened to spill from her eyes.

"Alright, alright. The Young Master spoke without thinking." Zhao Ming gently patted A Yin's back to comfort her.

"Remember, in this world, only my words are true; everyone else is deceiving you. Especially Tang Hao, you must never trust him. Your original soul ring and soul bone were taken by him." Zhao Ming continued to instill this into her mind.

"Zhi'er understands. I will not let Tang Hao go for taking my soul ring and soul bone."
