As Lu Yuan made his way deep into the Blue Silver Forest, he could pretty much confirm that the devastation here was caused by Tang Hao.
This was because there were still enormous hammer imprints remaining in the depths, and the only person with that kind of strength was the deceased Tang Hao.
"I had intended for you to recover again, but it seems you no longer have the chance," Lu Yuan murmured to himself as he released all the Blue Silver Emperor from his space soul tool, looking at the ruins before him.
But just as he released the Blue Silver Emperor from his space soul tool, the ruined Blue Silver Forest suddenly began to glow with blue light, full of life.
Indeed, the former ruins now once again bloomed with specks of blue light, imbued with a rich aura of life.
This scene immediately made Lu Yuan raise an eyebrow!
At this moment, a line of poetry inexplicably came to his mind.
"Wildfires cannot burn them all, they grow again with the spring breeze"—it must be like this!
That the Blue Silver Grass could survive such immense destruction and awaken one after another upon sensing the return of the Blue Silver Emperor was truly incredible.
As the blue light continued to rise, the recently released Blue Silver Emperor also began to tremble incessantly, with pure blue spirit power continuously spreading from her.
Under this blue spirit power, stalks of Blue Silver Grass continuously grew from the soil, developing rapidly.
And in these ruins, a stalk of Blue Silver Grass, noticeably larger and more robust than the others, grew extremely fast with the help of the Blue Silver Emperor.
Is this the Blue Silver King?
Lu Yuan's expression was somewhat strange. He then approached the other party, his gaze curious as he looked at the rapidly growing thick Blue Silver Grass.
Under his gaze, this Blue Silver Grass, clearly thicker than the others, even actively released a blue, illusory light.
Slowly, this light coalesced into an illusory figure.
"Oh, it really is the Blue Silver King!"
In the original work, the Blue Silver King had a cultivation of eighty thousand years, making him second only to Ah Yin, the Blue Silver Emperor.
If Ah Yin had not given birth to Tang San, he would have been the most likely candidate to become the new generation's Blue Silver Emperor.
He didn't expect that under such almost complete destruction, he could still retain a trace of spirituality and be awakened upon the Blue Silver Emperor's return.
"Emperor, great Emperor, you have finally returned!"
"During your absence, all of the Blue Silver Grass clan longed for your return."
"This old one thought she would never live to see your return, but now the clouds have parted and the moon shines through!"
"Let me offer a small token of my strength for your return!"
As the phantom trembled, waves of rich vitality rose throughout the entire Blue Silver Forest.
And this powerful vitality instantly surged directly into the Blue Silver Emperor nearby.
Accompanied by the shimmering light, the Blue Silver Emperor, who was originally only two people tall, finally began to grow rapidly at this moment.
Although more than half of the Blue Silver Forest was destroyed, wasn't there still half left?
With the vitality of half the Blue Silver Forest, it was not particularly difficult to help Ah Yin, who had already recovered to at least ten thousand years of cultivation, regain her self.
With the help of a large number of Blue Silver Grass, Ah Yin, as the Blue Silver Emperor, finally gained the ability to manifest her body once again.
Specks of azure light drifted from the Blue Silver Emperor's body, slowly beginning to condense her own human form.
Lu Yuan watched this scene, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
Under his curious gaze, a gentle female phantom in a blue dress slowly and completely appeared before him.
"Welcome back, Blue Silver Emperor!"
"Should I call you Ah Yin, or continue to call you Blue Silver Emperor?"
Looking at the woman before him, Lu Yuan nodded slightly, then took the initiative to speak.
"Just call me Ah Yin. The title of Blue Silver Emperor, before I avenge my clansmen, I am not worthy!"
Ah Yin, whose expression was originally gentle, now looked complex. With the help of countless Blue Silver Grass, she had regained her self.
Naturally, she also recalled past memories, and even through the memories of her subjects, she saw the faces of those who destroyed the Blue Silver Forest.
It was Tang Hao and Tang San!
As the Blue Silver Emperor, the people who destroyed her homeland were the man she once deeply loved and her son.
How ironic was this? Was this the retribution for falling in love with a human?
"The ones who destroyed the Blue Silver Forest were indeed Tang Hao and Tang San, it seems my guess was correct."
"However, Tang Hao is dead now, so your remaining enemy should only be Tang San."
"But as a mother, can you truly bear to lay a hand on your nominal son?"
Lu Yuan's gaze was profound as he coldly questioned Ah Yin, who had largely recovered.
As a pure chaos-seeker, Lu Yuan did not want to be backstabbed by the Blue Silver Emperor he had saved.
If he saw even a hint of reluctance on Ah Yin's face, he would immediately return to the Lake of Life.
He would ask the Ten Thousand Demon King, the most powerful plant-type Spirit Beast, to thoroughly 'modify' Ah Yin, the Blue Silver Emperor.
Of course, this would be the last resort if Ah Yin still chose to forgive Tang San even after knowing he wasn't her son.
"I..."
Ah Yin's expression was complicated. As a mother, how could she bear to kill her child? But as an Emperor, she should avenge her subjects. Even if Tang San was her child, she should not easily forgive him.
"Actually, you don't need to feel so conflicted. What if I told you that Tang San is actually not your son?"
"I don't know if you have the ability to review the past memories of the Blue Silver Grass. If you do, you might want to take a good look at Tang San's behavior in Saint Spirit Village when he was a child."
"Someone who was born knowing how to Cultivate, and even born with five or six special abilities."
"Is he really still your child?"
Lu Yuan's words, one by one, struck Ah Yin's heart heavily.
She looked at Lu Yuan, her delicate face filled with confusion and horror.
Then she closed her eyes. As the Blue Silver Emperor, she could choose to receive all the information seen by the Blue Silver Grass.
As she began to control the Blue Silver Grass to receive all the information seen by the Blue Silver Grass in Saint Spirit Village over the past few decades, her face grew paler and paler, and then her gentle, resentful gaze became deep and even filled with killing intent!
Through all the Blue Silver Grass in Saint Spirit Village, she saw everything from Tang San's childhood.
Her son, just as Lu Yuan said, was born knowing how to Cultivate.
Not long after he was born, he immediately began to Cultivate on his own!
At this moment, Ah Yin could confirm that Tang San was definitely not her son.
At least the Soul within that body was definitely not her son!
Kill!
Revenge, she wanted to avenge her child!
In an instant, the originally blue-gold Ah Yin underwent a transformation.
The blue turned black, showing a clear tendency to transform into the Dark Blue Silver Emperor...
