Chapter 78: A Yin's Body Has Recovered
After Tang Hao and his son left, only Zhou Yu and A Yin remained in the entire valley.
"Your name is... Lin Yu?"
A Yin broke the silence first, asking kindly in the tone of an elder.
"Yes, Auntie!"
Zhou Yu nodded, giving her a knowing smile.
Expectation flickered in A Yin's eyes as she asked softly, "Lin Yu, if it's convenient, could you tell me about Xiao San?"
As a mother, the first thing she wanted to do upon returning to the human world was to learn more about her son.
She had originally asked Tang Hao, but unfortunately, he was not a competent father.
Zhou Yu understood her feelings, so he smiled and agreed, "Of course!"
Then, he began recounting from the time Tang San took the entrance exam at Shrek Academy...
Outside the valley, Tang Hao and Tang San had not gone far; instead, they concealed themselves at a high vantage point, spying on the movements within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Tang Hao lowered his voice and asked his son beside him, "Xiao San, how did Lin Yu know this place?"
His gaze remained fixed on Zhou Yu, who was chatting happily with A Yin, his eyes filled with vigilance.
"When I was brought here by the senior Dugu Bo back then, several teachers from Shrek Academy came to rescue me. It's not surprising that Lin Yu knows this place."
Tang San naturally understood his father's meaning and immediately countered, "Dad! Are you worried... that he might harm Mom?"
Tang Hao nodded without concealment; after all, a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast was a huge temptation for any Spirit Master.
Although A Yin was now merely a fragile Blue Silver Grass, she was the true Blue Silver Emperor.
"Dad, since Lin Yu knows this place, yet brought no one here, I believe he won't harm Mom."
Tang San's words were not without reason, but Tang Hao, unable to rest easy, decided to observe secretly for two days. Only after ensuring A Yin was in no danger would he and Tang San set off for the Clear Sky Sect.
"..."
Zhou Yu's Perception talent was a unique ability of his Chameleon Martial Soul; without releasing soul power or spiritual energy, he could perceive all movements around him.
He knew that Tang Hao and his son were secretly monitoring him.
Two days later.
Tang Hao finally felt relieved; Zhou Yu had been carefully taking care of A Yin, with no abnormal behavior whatsoever.
He sighed lightly, "It seems this Lin Yu can be trusted. Xiao San, let us depart immediately. After you return to your ancestral clan, I will come back to accompany your mother."
Tang San nodded in agreement and, with his father, set off once again on the road to the Clear Sky Sect.
In the valley, Zhou Yu, through his Perception talent, sensed that Tang San and the others had left.
And next, he would naturally do his utmost to take good care of this gentle and beautiful Auntie on behalf of the father and son.
He looked around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well; even though the twelve most precious Immortal Herbs had long been taken by him, the place was still lush with greenery, teeming with many rare herbs difficult to find in the world.
"Hehe..."
A cunning smile curled Zhou Yu's lips, as if he had hatched some scheme.
He turned and walked toward A Yin, saying with a serious expression, "Auntie, do you want to recover your body quickly?"
Upon hearing this, A Yin was instantly overjoyed and asked with full expectation, "Lin Yu, do you have any method to help me recover my body quickly?"
"Mm!"
Zhou Yu pointed to the rare herbs around them, difficult to find in the world, and said, "These Immortal Herbs all contain rich spiritual energy! As long as they are absorbed and refined, they can quickly increase your soul power, Auntie."
"Increase quickly?"
Although A Yin wanted to recover her body quickly so she could truly reunite as a family with her beloved and her son,
she also knew deeply that rushing often leads to the opposite result and that one must proceed step by step.
Seeing her look hesitant, Zhou Yu hurriedly explained, "Auntie, I know what you are worried about! However, I have a Qi Refining Art that can quickly increase soul power, and it will have no side effects whatsoever." "Qi Refining Art?"
A Yin felt even more puzzled; since transforming into human form, she had traveled the human world, yet had never heard of any Qi Refining Art.
"Yes, indeed! I cultivated this very art, which is why my soul power quickly rose to level seventy."
Zhou Yu smiled slightly and revealed his soul power level.
"What! You... you actually have level seventy soul power?"
Upon hearing this, A Yin was utterly stunned, never expecting his soul power level to be even higher than her son's.
After all, Tang San possessed a Double Martial Soul and was a genius with innate full soul power.
Zhou Yu nodded, summoning his first martial soul while simultaneously releasing his six Spirit Rings.
"You have a Dragon Type Martial Soul..."
A Yin watched as six Spirit Rings—yellow, yellow, purple, black, black, black—slowly rose, but what surprised her even more was that Zhou Yu's martial soul was a Dragon Type Martial Soul.
The Dragon Type Martial Soul is the king among Beast Spirits; even some Sub-Dragon Martial Souls possess qualities incomparable to other Beast Spirits.
In fact, when Zhou Yu previously helped the Sheng Nu Hu Liena of the Spirit Hall undergo consecration, he could have completely devoured her soul power and Spirit Rings.
However, a Spirit Master's seventh Spirit Ring is crucial; it provides a chance to defy heaven and change fate.
As long as the quality of this Spirit Ring is high enough, there is a high probability of becoming a Title Douluo, which is why the seventh Spirit Ring is also called the Title Spirit Ring.
Although Hu Liena's talent was not bad, she still fell slightly short of becoming Zhou Yu's seventh Spirit Ring.
Having witnessed Zhou Yu's soul power level, combined with her own eagerness to return home, A Yin finally made up her mind, wanting to try cultivating this art that quickly increases soul power.
"Lin Yu! I want to learn your Qi Refining Art; can you teach me?"
Zhou Yu nodded without hesitation and agreed, "Mm! Auntie, there is no time to lose; let us begin right now!"
Thinking of being able to recover her body quickly, a happy smile spread across A Yin's face.
In the time that followed, Zhou Yu sat cross-legged beside A Yin.
The two simultaneously practiced the Qi Refining Technique, jointly guiding and absorbing the pure spiritual energy surging from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
After more than half a month of cultivation, a miracle truly occurred.
A Yin's originally illusory figure gradually, bit by bit, became real and tangible.
"Auntie, your body..."
Zhou Yu's gaze was involuntarily tightly drawn to the graceful figure before him, unable to look away.
A Yin was overwhelmed with emotion, her eyes naturally filling with moisture.
Pity her beloved husband and son were not here at this moment.
Otherwise, she would surely have embraced them tightly.
Who would have thought that the Zhou Yu before her suddenly made a bold move.
"Auntie! You are truly beautiful..."
As the words fell, he stepped forward, opened his arms, and tightly pulled A Yin into his embrace.
"Lin... Lin Yu!"
This sudden, intimate contact left the hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast, who had just regained her physical form, somewhat at a loss, as if her very thoughts had temporarily frozen.
At this very moment, a classic song echoed leisurely in Zhou Yu's mind:
Just climbed over two mountains! Hey! And touched a river! Ha!
