Chapter 263: Tang San Plans to Rescue His Mother
When Su Yun climbed out of the lake, Xiao Wu was nowhere to be seen.
"Su Yun, I didn't expect you to be flirting around outside. If I ever find out you've wronged Sister Xiao Wu..." Su Yun had just emerged from the water when the Azure Bull Python's head suddenly appeared from the lake, startling him.
This guy was eavesdropping...
Grumbling to himself, Su Yun still assured the Azure Bull Python before finding a place to change his clothes.
In the following days, Su Yun stayed in the center of the Star Dou Forest, helping Xiao Wu restore the internal environment. With the martial spirit of the Blue Silver Divine Tree and the Time Domain, Su Yun could easily accelerate the growth of plants here.
Due to the deaths of the Ant Emperor brothers at the hands of Tang San and his uncle, potential threats were indirectly removed for Xiao Wu and her group. Now, the soul beast community in the central area of the Star Dou Forest revered Xiao Wu.
Having helped Xiao Wu's group resolve their living environment issues, Su Yun naturally demanded 'compensation.' Thus, for the next few days, he openly stayed in Xiao Wu's room for three days and nights.
"This guy stayed in Sister Xiao Wu's room for three days and nights, damn it..." The Titan Giant Ape, being a soul beast, naturally knew what could happen between a man and a woman alone in a room. For him, Sister Xiao Wu was like a close family member, and he felt as though his cherished cabbage had been eaten by a pig.
The Azure Bull Python was much calmer, glancing at his younger brother. "Hmph, you were with that female..."
Before the Azure Bull Python could finish, the Titan Giant Ape quickly covered his mouth, grinning. "Big brother, let's not talk about my matters."
"Besides, I'm just concerned about Sister Xiao Wu. That guy..."
Before the Titan Giant Ape could finish, his voice halted, and he, along with the Azure Bull Python, turned their gaze toward Xiao Wu's residence.
The door opened, and Su Yun emerged.
This time, Su Yun didn't appear as exhausted as he had with Ah Yin and Bibi Dong but looked refreshed.
Behind Su Yun, Xiao Wu, blushing, was still wearing the same white dress as three days ago. However, the dress now looked somewhat disheveled from being pulled.
"Ugh..."
Su Yun was stretching when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist. Turning his head, he saw Xiao Wu glaring at him angrily.
"If you ever..." Xiao Wu began to 'threaten' Su Yun but noticed the gazes of Da Ming and Er Ming nearby. Her words turned into a whisper, and her face grew even redder.
It's all Su Yun's fault!
Su Yun laughed heartily, stealing another kiss from Xiao Wu before greeting Da Ming and Er Ming and leaving the Star Dou Forest.
Da Ming and Er Ming initially wanted to approach Sister Xiao Wu but, seeing her warning look, wisely retreated to manage their territories.
…
"Uncle, how are you feeling now?" Tang San brought a bowl of medicine for his uncle, helping him drink it.
"Cough, cough... Xiao San, I'm feeling much better now," Tang Hao said, struggling to sit up. A few days ago, he was a mighty Level 96 Title Douluo, but now he was almost crippled.
"Uncle, it's all my fault. If I were stronger, a Title Douluo, perhaps you wouldn't have suffered so much," Tang San said, clenching his fists as he looked at his uncle's pale face.
He glanced at his arm, which Xiao Wu had broken. Though it had healed thanks to divine power, it hadn't fully recovered. Without rare herbs and a suitable environment, Tang San found it difficult to use hidden weapons as deftly as before.
"No, Xiao San, it's not your fault."
Tang Hao looked at Tang San's injured arm, his eyes filled with pain. "Those two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts were too powerful, with domains controlling gravity and speed."
"Even compared to your Asura Domain, those domains were overwhelming. I was too arrogant."
"If we had brought more Title Douluo, they might not have controlled us so easily."
"Maintaining control in their domain consumes a lot of mental and soul power."
"Xiao San, you can't waste time here."
Tang Hao warned, "You must become a Title Douluo quickly. If Su Yun becomes a god before you, we'll lose everything."
"You saw Su Yun's strength. He's invincible below the divine level. Even the Sea God Island's High Priest or Spirit Empire's Qian Daoliu wouldn't be certain of defeating him."
"We're running out of time."
Hearing Su Yun's name unsettled Tang San again.
"Uncle, do you remember a few days ago when Su Yun summoned my mother?" Thinking of the woman Su Yun had summoned, Tang San's hatred grew.
Tang Hao was taken aback, recalling scenes with Ah Yin and his brother Tang Xiao. "Of course."
"Clearly, Su Yun has an extraordinary relationship with your mother!"
Tang San and Tang Hao remembered Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect saying he had seen a woman identical to Tang San's mother with Su Yun.
Could his mother have betrayed him and his father?
Or was she bewitched?
Yes!
His mother must have lost her memory!
Tang San remembered his father saying his mother, the Blue Silver Grass, would reincarnate, losing her past memories.
Su Yun must have used this advantage to deceive her!
Thinking this, Tang San's anger flared!
Su Yun, you beast, you dared deceive my mother!
Imagining Su Yun deceiving his amnesiac mother, Tang San's mind filled with dark thoughts.
If Su Yun knew the woman in his martial spirit was his mother, and given her divine beauty, with Su Yun's character of already having two women, then...
Hiss—
Tang San's eyes widened.
"Slap!"
Tang San immediately slapped himself, refusing to let his thoughts run wild.
"Xiao San, you..." Seeing Tang San suddenly slap himself, Tang Xiao thought he was blaming himself for not protecting him.
"Uncle, I need to go to the Blue Silver Grass territory!" Tang San declared resolutely.
"The Blue Silver Grass territory?"
Tang Xiao was puzzled at first, but then he realized what Tang San was thinking. "You want to find your mother through the Blue Silver King in the Blue Silver Grass territory?"
"Yes." Tang San nodded. "Since my mother is the Blue Silver Emperor, the Blue Silver King should be able to find the strongest bloodline, which is my mother."
"My mother must have been deceived or forcibly detained by Su Yun, or even worse..."
An indecent image suddenly flashed in Tang San's mind, causing him to tremble with anger. He quickly dismissed the impure thoughts and said firmly, "I need to get any information about my mother. I will do whatever it takes to rescue her and not let her suffer by Su Yun's side!"
Tang Xiao frowned, "But Xiao San, don't forget, when you tried to enter the Blue Silver Grass territory before, you were stopped by the Blue Silver King. Will it help you?"
Tang San sneered, "Uncle, strength has always been respected."
"Although I'm slightly weaker than Su Yun, I can still force the Blue Silver King to comply."
"Moreover, I have the Blue Silver Emperor's bloodline, just not fully awakened."
"If I awaken my Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, it will have to bow to me."
Tang Xiao found Tang San's reasoning sound and nodded. "Are you planning to go alone?"
"Don't forget, Su Yun knows about that place. He might have sent Spirit Hall's elite to guard it, preventing you from entering. Since awakening your bloodline is crucial, he would expect you to go there."
"Now that Su Yun knows your whereabouts, he will likely guess your plan to find your mother. You're essentially showing your hand."
Tang San was momentarily taken aback by Tang Xiao's words.
Indeed, Su Yun wasn't a fool. He might have already set up spies, waiting for him to arrive.
Moreover, the Blue Silver Grass there had become Su Yun's informants, ready to relay any news of his movements.
"Go find your great uncle and ask the Agility Clan to investigate."
Tang Xiao suggested, "They are natural scouts. With proper coordination, it's almost impossible for ordinary soul masters to catch them."
"And they can also infiltrate Spirit Hall to find your teacher's whereabouts."
"Alright, I'll follow your advice." Tang San thought for a moment and agreed with his uncle. He left the room to find his great uncle.
Meanwhile, he silently apologized in his heart: Teacher, I'm sorry, but you'll have to endure Spirit Hall's prison a bit longer. I'll rescue my mother first, then come for you.
…
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
"Sect Master, Tang San and Tang Xiao returned from the Star Dou Forest empty-handed. I heard they encountered three hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, two with domains, and one that had transformed into a human, reaching Title Douluo level."
"Additionally, they met Su Yun, who is deeply involved with a hundred-thousand-year soul beast transformed into a woman. She helped him fight Tang Xiao, leading to his injuries."
Bone Douluo Gu Rong reported this to Ning Fengzhi upon returning from the Clear Sky Sect. He added, "I heard the Clear Sky Sect has sent the Agility Clan on a mission. Should our people follow them?"
"No need." Ning Fengzhi shook his head, though he was taken aback. "My son-in-law, Tang San, surviving three hundred-thousand-year soul beasts and Su Yun is already beyond my expectations."
Sword Douluo also nodded.
Three hundred-thousand-year soul beasts plus Su Yun—it was a testament to their terrifying power.
Considering Tang San was still just a Soul Douluo, his future potential as a Title Douluo or even a god would surpass any deity.
After all, Tang San had two divine positions.
"Su Yun of Spirit Hall is following Tang Xiao's path, deeply involved with a hundred-thousand-year soul beast," Sword Douluo noted. "Isn't he afraid Spirit Hall will seek its soul ring and bone..."
"No, Uncle Jian, I think Spirit Hall won't act recklessly."
Ning Fengzhi shook his head. "Su Yun is on the verge of becoming a god. Even if he deeply cares for an untransformed soul beast, Spirit Hall wouldn't interfere."
"Especially if it's a transformed soul beast. It might even become a future asset for Spirit Hall."
Sword Douluo nodded.
"The divine trials are indeed challenging. Obtaining a hundred-thousand-year soul ring is no easy feat."
Ning Fengzhi sighed. "It's just unfortunate that my son-in-law had such bad luck, encountering soul beasts with domains."
Domains provided significant enhancements.
For instance, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo of Spirit Hall had a fusion skill that acted as a domain, giving them a significant edge among high-level Title Douluo.
"Uncle Jian, find an opportunity to ask the Clear Sky Sect if they need our help," Ning Fengzhi suddenly said.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin responded slowly, "Fengzhi, after Tang San betrayed us, making Rongrong his concubine, do you still..."
"So what if I'm unhappy? Tang San will become a god in the future. Even as a concubine, Rongrong's position will benefit our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
"I'm just lamenting that if we had secured Su Yun back then, our sect could have become the top in the continent..."
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo exchanged glances, both regretting not decisively seizing Su Yun from Spirit Hall.
…
A few days later, a team set out from the Clear Sky Sect.
Leading the team was Tang San's cousin, Bai Chenxiang, with her purple hair.
"Captain, the patriarch said we're going to find the Young Master's mother, right?" a team member asked.
"I heard the Young Master's mother is not..."
"Shut up," Bai Chenxiang snapped. "Don't ask unnecessary questions. Just do your job."
"Yes."
The team fell silent.
As members of the Agility Clan with the Sharp-tailed Swallow martial spirit, their speed was unmatched. In a few days, Bai Chenxiang led her team to their destination.
