The female protagonists were curious—if things had followed their original course, who exactly were the 100,000-year soul beasts that the Tang family married? So far, they knew about Ah Yin and Xiao Wu.
At this point, Su Ming seemed to know exactly what they were thinking and continued writing.
[Since we've already touched on the Tang family's marriage to 100,000-year soul beasts, let's delve a bit deeper. It's truly absurd how, generation after generation, the Tang family kept marrying soul beasts—and not just any soul beasts, but ones with at least 100,000 years of cultivation!]
[Let's break it down. Tang Hao married the 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin, and his son Tang San married the 100,000-year Soft Bone Rabbit Xiao Wu. But now, Tang San won't get that chance. Xiao Wu is my sister now—there's no way she'll end up as Tang San's wife!]
[Then, Tang San's son, Tang Wulin, married Gu Yuena, the Lord of Soul Beasts. Gu Yuena wasn't just any 100,000-year soul beast—she was the Silver Dragon King, a divine beast! Her power far surpassed that of a typical 100,000-year soul beast.]
[As the Lord of Soul Beasts, Gu Yuena probably never imagined she'd marry a human. And what's crazier is that her mother-in-law would be a 100,000-year soul beast too! The family tree sure gets complicated, doesn't it?]
[That said, at this moment, Gu Yuena is still asleep deep within the core of the Star Dou Forest.]
Xiao Wu was shocked. Although she hadn't heard of Gu Yuena, just the title "Lord of Soul Beasts" was enough to tell her that Gu Yuena outranked her by far. And yet… she'll be my daughter-in-law? Xiao Wu found it all hard to believe.
Bibi Dong also felt a wave of relief, knowing that Gu Yuena was still in a deep slumber. But she reminded herself to never venture too deep into the Star Dou Forest in the future. If Gu Yuena woke up, Bibi Dong knew she wouldn't stand a chance.
[Tang Wulin's son, Tang Xuanyu, then married Bai Xiuxiu, a 100,000-year Demon Soul Great White Shark.]
[Talk about luck. But I've always wondered: with the Tang family marrying all these soul beasts, wouldn't their descendants have less and less human blood over time?]
[By the time we get to Tang Xuanyu, there might not be much human blood left in him. Can they still be considered human?]
[Anyway, none of this will happen now that I, Su Ming, am here. Xiao Wu is already my sister and will eventually become my wife, so the Tang family's lineage of marrying soul beasts ends with Tang San!]
The female protagonists: Haha, Su Ming, you're so bad!
[Speaking of which, now that Xiao Wu has recognized me as her brother instead of Tang San, she's naturally closer to me.]
[But here's the thing: Tang Hao is a Title Douluo. He secretly followed Tang San from Holy Soul Village to Nuoding City, protecting him from the shadows.]
[With Tang Hao's strength, he should have already sensed that Xiao Wu is a 100,000-year soul beast. But he hasn't made a move yet.]
[In the original story, Xiao Wu and Tang San were close, even sleeping in the same bed. That's probably what made Tang Hao think of Xiao Wu as Tang San's future wife.]
[But now, Xiao Wu is closer to me. Will Tang Hao make a move on Xiao Wu? Or worse, will he try to capture her and later have Tang San absorb her spirit ring and spirit bone?]
[It's not impossible. Although Tang Hao's wife, Ah Yin, was a 100,000-year soul beast, he might treat Xiao Wu differently depending on her relationship with Tang San. If Xiao Wu isn't close to Tang San, Tang Hao might act out of temptation, like any other Title Douluo would when faced with a 100,000-year soul beast.]
[Besides, as I've mentioned before, I believe Ah Yin's forced sacrifice was part of a plan by Tang Hao. Otherwise, how did Qian Xunji find out that Ah Yin was a 100,000-year soul beast? And why didn't Tang Hao hide Ah Yin more securely?]
[If Tang Hao really cared about Ah Yin, and wanted her to revive quickly and cultivate her strength, why did he leave her in a cave behind Holy Soul Village?]
[That cave isn't suitable for Blue Silver Grass growth, nor for cultivation. Ah Yin could barely recover in such an environment. She would have been much better off in the Blue Silver Grass ancestral ground in the Star Dou Forest, where she could have regained her strength.]
[There's no way Tang Hao didn't know this. So why did he do it?]
[Tang Hao claimed he wanted to be with Ah Yin all the time, but if that were true, he could've placed her somewhere else, where she could recover more effectively. With his strength as a Title Douluo, he could easily protect her in a better location.]
Su Ming's analysis hit home, and Ah Yin's Blue Silver Grass body swayed as if it were wilting.
Ah Yin's thoughts were in turmoil. As Su Ming pointed out, the cave was indeed unsuitable for her cultivation. But she hadn't given it much thought, trusting Tang Hao's explanation that he wanted to stay by her side.
Now, she wondered why Tang Hao didn't find a more suitable place for her recovery. Why didn't I think of this before?
As Su Ming mentioned, Tang Hao definitely knew where the Blue Silver Grass ancestral ground was. After all, Tang San would eventually need to visit it to activate his Blue Silver Emperor bloodline and become the new Blue Silver Emperor.
Ah Yin now felt more confused about Tang Hao, realizing he wasn't the man she thought she knew.
[What should I do if Tang Hao makes a move on Xiao Wu? I'm not strong enough to fight him right now, but I've promised Xiao Wu that I won't let her get hurt.]
[I guess I'll just have to take things one step at a time. If Tang Hao really does attack Xiao Wu, I'll fight him with everything I've got. Even if it costs me my life, I'll make sure Tang Hao suffers and give Xiao Wu enough time to escape to the Star Dou Forest and find Da Ming and Er Ming.]
[Though I'm still weak, if I burn my life force and push my Sharingan and Wood Release to their limits, I should be able to fight back—at least for a short time.]
[Of course, that's the last resort. If the system can't help me, then I'll have no choice but to take that path.]
The female protagonists were left speechless by Su Ming's sudden seriousness. It became clear to them that Su Ming was genuinely committed to protecting Xiao Wu, not just paying lip service. Since he didn't know they were reading his diary, his words reflected his true feelings.
Xiao Wu, deeply moved, felt her eyes welling up with emotion. Why did you have to write something so heavy, Su Ming?
Tang Hao won't discover my identity, Xiao Wu reassured herself. I have the diary's aura-concealing ability to hide my 100,000-year soul beast aura. And now that I've accepted you as my brother, there's no way I'd let you face danger alone!
You big idiot!
