Chapter 63: If Madam Wants It...
Jiang Li's Title, Silver Emperor, was taken from the'Silver' in his first Martial Soul, the Blue Silver Emperor, and the 'Emperor' from his second Martial Soul, the Human Emperor Banner. However, in his own words, he explained it as having a wondrous fate with the Blue Silver Clan.
This serious-faced load of nonsense, combined with his peerless demeanor as a newly ascended Titled Douluo, instantly purified the Human Emperor Banner—which was coolly emitting black Grandmist Purple Qi—transforming it into a symbol of supreme compassion and responsibility toward all living plants.
"Madam must have some different views regarding my Soul Rings, right?"
Ah Yin hadn't expected Jiang Li to ask so suddenly. She nodded slowly; this was indeed something she was curious about.
Once a Soul Beast reaches the hundred-thousand-year level, aside from their own kin, other Soul Beasts that haven't reached that level are naturally viewed as a different species in their eyes.
Therefore, Ah Yin didn't actually care about the thousand-year and ten-thousand-year Soul Rings on Jiang Li's body.
The only thing that piqued her curiosity was the three exaggerated red rings on Jiang Li.
The seventh Soul Ring carried a dense aura of Blue Silver Grass. Ah Yin guessed that this must be a natal Soul Ring bestowed upon Jiang Li by her clansmen, which had reached the hundred-thousand-year level as Jiang Li's strength increased. This wasn't particularly noteworthy.
However, on the subsequent eighth and Ninth Soul Rings, although there was no aura of a Soul Beast, their age rank could not be faked.
Moreover, Jiang Li had just completed his Breakthrough from Soul Douluo to Titled Douluo not far away.
"I ask Mr. Jiang Li to enlighten Ah Yin..."
"This concerns secrets; if it makes things difficult for you, Mister..."
Jiang Li raised his hand. This wasn't a rejection, but a sign that no more words were needed.
His voice, as pleasant as a spring breeze, echoed within the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire. "Madam, my 8th and 9th Soul Rings are indeed as you see; they were not obtained by hunting Soul Beasts. There is naturally some karma involved."
At this point, a compassionate expression appeared on Jiang Li's face. "I have always believed that hunting Soul Beasts for Soul Rings is a wrong choice. Even when I usually teach Little San, I tell him that if he must hunt Soul Beasts in the future, it is best to choose evil ones to take rings from."
"I believe you should be able to sense the difference in that Little Rabbit by Little San's side, Madam."
"Unfortunately, This Jiang's strength is still too meager. The miracle of the 8th and 9th Soul Rings beneath my feet is almost impossible to replicate."
"Otherwise, This Jiang would surely find a way to change the current situation between Soul Beasts and humans."
Ah Yin was instantly entranced by his words.
"So Mr. Jiang Li has such a grand vision in his heart? By comparison, as the previous Blue Silver Emperor, I truly was too narrow-minded."
It was only now that she realized that although the aura of the Little Rabbit by her Son's side was concealed by special herbs, the Origin belonging to a Transformed Soul Beast within its body was easily sensed by her.
No wonder she had the air of an old friend; she was the child of an old friend.
Ah Yin sighed inwardly, then asked in a gentle tone, "Are you A'Rou's child?"
"Waaa, yes, Auntie Blue Silver Emperor. My mother was killed by that evil woman in Spirit Hall."
As soon as Xiao Wu heard Ah Yin mention her mother, she instantly burst into tears, and even the rabbit ears on her head drooped down.
As for Tang San?
Originally, his eyes held nothing but admiration for Jiang Li, devoid of any Impurities. But seeing his beloved Little Sister Xiao Wu cry, he panicked for a moment, appearing completely at a loss.
Seeing her Son like this, how could Ah Yin not see the underlying feelings? She couldn't help but marvel at how wondrous fate truly was.
However, she also felt a faint sense of something being wrong in the dark.
Why did Tang Hao encounter her when she had transformed into a human, and Tang San happened to encounter Xiao Wu who had also transformed?
An unsettling suspicion rose in Ah Yin's heart, but being merely a plant for now, she couldn't figure out the intricacies for the time being.
After Ah Yin murmured a few words to herself, she finally spoke slowly.
"Little San, you mustn't bully Xiao Wu in the future."
"As your mother, I think very highly of this little girl."
Hearing his mother's words, Tang San's face turned slightly red, and he nodded solemnly.
"Mother, I understand. I won't let anyone who harms Xiao Wu get away!"
...
Seeing that matters were mostly handled, Jiang Li timely brought up the matter of leaving.
However, their destination this time was not to return directly to Heaven Dou City, but to prepare to bring the remaining three clans under their banner.
Hearing Jiang Li say this, Tang San felt reluctant to leave his mother, but he also knew that now was not the time for personal feelings.
He had to climb to the top step by step so that there would be hope of resurrecting his mother as soon as possible in the future.
And those evil Tang Family members—he would definitely take his revenge personally when the time came!
Such an evil group of Tang Family members; every day they lived in this world was a sin!
Tang San respectfully kowtowed a few times toward Ah Yin before following Jiang Li out of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.
"Little San, this time we need to take a detour to the Star Luo Empire."
"You should still remember what I told you before about the four Single-Attribute Clans that once belonged to the Clear Sky Sect, right?"
"Over these years, you have already built up a considerable amount of prestige within the Strength Clan, especially among the younger generation."
"If you want to establish your own sect in the future, the other Families will be a significant help to you."
After listening to Jiang Li's explanation, Tang San's eyes instantly lit up.
As expected of his Master; taking one step while planning several steps ahead, he was simply a Master strategist.
In the current Strength Clan, aside from Clan Chief Tai Tan who was still devoted to the Clear Sky Sect and that unfilial father of his, almost everyone else had been completely won over by his exquisite Hidden Weapons.
It could be said that the foundation for him to establish the Tang Sect was already there.
If he added the Speed Clan, suitable for scouting and aerial ambushes; the Defense Clan, suitable for construction; and the Breaking Clan, suitable for alchemy and guarding, the otherworldly Tang Sect he established would surely be able to gain a firm foothold in the shortest possible time.
Furthermore, the prices of his Zhuge Divine Crossbows and Silent Sleeve Arrows on the black market were excellent. If there was a Young Lord who was so talented, had such a legitimate background, and could lead the clansmen to prosperity, what reason would they have not to follow him?
"Master, among the remaining three clans, which one shall we go to first?"
Tang San asked curiously.
