No matter how much Gu Yuena cried, begged, or even used her charms, she couldn't stir even a bit of interest in Tang San. Finally, she resorted to threats, saying, "Fine, just you wait. When I'm stronger in the future, I'll make sure to ride you like a big horse!"

Tang San lifted Gu Yuena, placing her legs over his shoulders, balancing her so she wouldn't fall backward. He smiled and said, "No need to wait for the future. You can ride on my shoulders now. Isn't it comfortable?"

"Comfortable, my foot!" Gu Yuena, flushed with embarrassment and anger, tugged on Tang San's hair for a while until she seemed to tire out. She eventually compromised, saying, "Well, it is kind of fun sitting on your shoulders. The view is much broader from up here, but it's a bit stuffy in this study. How about we go for a walk outside? Take me to the food market and buy me some treats, and I'll forgive your rudeness from earlier."

"Sounds like a good idea, but let me finish what I'm working on first," Tang San said, casually brushing her off while adjusting his position.

At first, Gu Yuena didn't notice anything was wrong. She kept asking Tang San about the various acupoints on the human body diagram. As time passed and noon approached, she felt her butt and legs becoming numb. Realizing the problem, she coldly whispered into Tang San's ear, "You're not using me as a cushion, are you?"

"Of course not! I got absorbed in my research, and you didn't remind me. Weren't you also studying with me? Besides, you were the one who wanted to ride a horse, so I'm just helping you fulfill your dream!" Tang San looked up, meeting Gu Yuena's eyes with an innocent expression.

"So it's my fault now?" Gu Yuena snorted but didn't argue further. "I'm hungry. Take me to eat, and then this afternoon, take me to the food market. Otherwise, I won't forgive you so easily."

"Wow, you're quite bold!" Tang San put down his charcoal pen and reached for Gu Yuena's armpits, tickling her lightly, making her laugh uncontrollably.

"Heehee! Hahaha~"

"What's happening? Haha, I shouldn't be laughing so hard… haha, I'm a soul master!"

Having transformed into a human shape, Gu Yuena's body was as sensitive as a human's, naturally reacting to tickling.

To Tang San, transformation was the true mastery of converting matter and energy. For a soul beast with such a large body to transform into a small human baby, the material change and energy conversion involved were beyond even the gods' understanding.

It was simply the rule of the world.

Even the Silver Dragon King couldn't change it and had to abide by it, despite this body being only a part of the original essence.

"Stop it! Ha~ Keep going, and I'll really get mad!" Gu Yuena squeezed Tang San's arm tightly, her face flushed not from shyness but from laughing so hard that her blood was surging, making her body hot.

"How can I stop if you're holding my arm?" Tang San moved his arm, signaling for Gu Yuena to let go. Only then did he lower his hands, carrying Gu Yuena out of the study.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Gu Yuena suddenly noticed her view rising, which startled her. Even though her true form was larger and allowed her to see more when standing upright, as a human, being lifted gave her the illusion that her original form was also being held up, making her a bit panicked.

This was a completely different feeling from being held.

"Taking you to eat."

Tang San thought to himself that Gu Yuena's act was quite convincing as he walked out of the study and headed towards the dining hall.

Passing by the training field, he noticed that Lan Yinzi was still there, examining the Blue Silver Emperor plant Tang San had left behind. She was also experimenting with her fifth soul skill: the Blue Silver Gathering Array.

The training field, spanning nearly a kilometer, was filled with a concentration of natural energy even denser than that of the entire Spirit City.

"My Blue Silver Gathering Array has become incredibly powerful with the support of your Blue Silver Emperor plant!" Lan Yinzi exclaimed, running over with a delighted expression as she saw Tang San carrying Gu Yuena. "If we could connect this Blue Silver Emperor plant to the Blue Silver Network, I might be able to double the natural energy density of the entire Spirit City!"

"That's quite an ability, but this was just a preliminary test. We can't connect it to the Blue Silver Network right away. Besides, the natural energy in Spirit City is already abundant enough." Tang San shook his head slowly and then inquired about Lan Yinzi's research on the soul power flow within the soul rings. "What insights do you have on formations?"

"I'm not very confident in this area. I think we should consult Guang Ling when she returns. I wanted to ask you, but I saw you playing with a child through the window..." Lan Yinzi said, glancing at Gu Yuena sitting on Tang San's shoulders. Her face suddenly turned red, likely having seen the moment Gu Yuena lifted her skirt.

"She was eavesdropping by the window! She might know my secret." Gu Yuena's cold eyes showed no concern for Lan Yinzi's fear, and she said chillingly, "Should we kill her? What do you think?"

"Don't scare her. She won't say anything." Tang San lifted Gu Yuena off his shoulders and placed her on the ground like a chick.

"Actually, I was once a hundred-thousand-year soul beast transformed into human form..." Lan Yinzi hurriedly explained her identity, fearing that the Soul Beast Empress might kill her on a whim. As a complete human now, death meant no possibility of resurrection.

"Is that so!" Gu Yuena circled around Lan Yinzi, surprised to find that she was a transformed hundred-thousand-year-old plant soul beast. Her original body had been eaten by humans, and her soul had taken over a human body—a truly peculiar situation. However, if a fragmented soul could reside within a similar type of martial spirit, it could subtly influence the human's memory and soul, achieving a form of possession.

The Blue Silver Emperor was quite lucky. Such a low probability of success, yet it happened. Most soul beasts would need to cultivate for a million years to have even a slight chance of imperfect possession.

However, the most shocking revelation for Gu Yuena was that Lan Yinzi was Tang San's mother!

"Who would have thought, you have half soul beast blood." Gu Yuena looked at Tang San with a peculiar expression, feeling a sense of kinship. She saw him as half her kind, believing that someone with both human and soul beast blood could be the key to ending the need for human soul masters to hunt soul beasts for advancement.

After all, she had seen Tang San help Ling Xi and Ling Meng condense soul rings unique to them...
