Chapter 49 Ah Yin's "Tragic Death," Tang Hao Reacts_1

At this moment, Tang Hao arrived at the forest where he had planted Ah Yin, and he no longer had any reservations.

He directly released his Martial Soul and ran towards the front at an extremely fast pace.

His heart was filled with trepidation; for six years he had been by Tang San's side, never leaving Saint Soul Village. This was his first visit to see her since Ah Yin's sacrifice.

He felt both ashamed and afraid, yet there was also a faint gleam of guilty pleasure.

Oh, how he wished he could rid himself of that knot in his heart. He no longer wanted to live with the nightmares and the daily fear. Those days were too exhausting, every day felt like an agony.

This time, no matter whether Ah Yin was dead or alive, he would put an end to it all. Whether to seek repentance or continue making mistakes, he would leave it to fate to decide.

"Ah Yin, whether it ends well or not, let's call it an end this time," Tang Hao said faintly, his strength drained by the years of anguish; he no longer wanted to trouble his heart with these matters.

With that, he stepped into the cave.

When he arrived at the chamber he had carved out, Tang Hao was immediately stupified.

He was dumbfounded.

In the center of the chamber, there was a small mound of earth. Atop the mound was a piece of Blue Silver Grass. It was called Blue Silver Grass only because Tang Hao knew that was "Ah Yin", as ordinary people would never be able to distinguish the type of this grass.

For now, the grass no longer had a single leaf, just a three-centimeter-long stem. What's more, even the stem was just three centimeters long, riddled with many insect holes.

Above the mound, there were numerous small holes, the kind made by ants. Countless ants were nibbling away at the remaining grass stem.

Upon seeing this scene, Tang Hao was completely frozen.

And his heart was filled with an indescribable pain.

No matter what he had been thinking before, he now felt unable to accept this. As the saying goes, a day as a couple creates an everlasting bond. Watching countless ants frenziedly consume his wife, now reduced to a mere short stalk, how could he bear it?

He had always deeply loved Ah Yin, and it was precisely because of his love for her that after killing her he felt such immense pain. And it was this pain that made him so desperate to end it all, that he thought of letting Ah Yin live or die on her own, better off dead sooner.

It could be said that no matter what he thought, his love for Ah Yin remained unchanged. It was only due to various reasons that this love turned into something that hurt her.

With a "thud," Tang Hao collapsed to his knees.

"Ah Yin, I'm sorry, I'm truly sorry," Tang Hao muttered as he knelt in front of Ah Yin. The small mound where Ah Yin was planted was now like a grave, with her buried within.

Looking at the mound, Tang Hao felt its piercing contrast; his heart was in excruciating pain. Regardless of his previous actions or harmful thoughts toward Ah Yin, in this moment, they all turned into deep love and profound regret.

Why didn't he plant Ah Yin close to him? Why didn't he help her with weeding, fertilizing, and pest control? Didn't he know how hard it was for an ordinary plant to survive?

Why hasn't he visited Ah Yin all these years? Was it because he had to take care of Xiaosan? But Xiaosan has been so sensible since he was young—why would he need Tang Hao's care? It was more the other way around.

He was just a little afraid to see Ah Yin. Ah Yin was his nightmare.

It was out of guilt that he dared not visit her.

Yet it was he who had turned her into this state.

At first, he truly hadn't foreseen any of this. He had only placed a seal on Ah Yin's body to protect her from the ravages of insects. He simply wanted Ah Yin to wither on her own; he never intended for her to suffer so much.

Consumed by so many insects, not even a complete corpse remained.

All of this was over now, Ah Yin was thoroughly and utterly dead. He no longer had to carry any psychological burden; he could let all of this go. But why did his heart hurt so intensely?

He couldn't help but recall how much better it would have been had he not been so greedy back then. Once Ah Yin became a Titled Douluo, her presence would have been completely hidden, undetectable by anyone. Why did he harbor such thoughts? Was stepping into this realm with the identity of a powerful Titled Douluo, by absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, truly so important?

Tang Hao pulled out what remained of "Ah Yin" after she'd been gnawed away, leaving only a small grass shaft, and gazed at her ravaged body riddled with holes, sighing softly in his heart.

Visions of Ah Yin's perfect figure flooded his mind, stirring his heart. If not for that incident, Ah Yin might have been pregnant with a second child by now.

He gently caressed the grass shaft full of wormholes, his mind drifting to Ah Yin's slender waist, free of any excess fat. A hint of satisfaction appeared on his face. Following the principle that each part of a plant is a counterpart to a human part, this grass shaft corresponded to Ah Yin's serpent-like slender waist.

"Ah Yin, whether I did something to wrong you in the past... let us put an end to it all."

"From now on, I will still be Hao Tian Douluo, still your husband. After this, I will not marry anyone else. You will forever be my wife in my heart." As Tang Hao said this, the tears in his eyes had long dried up. Before this small mound, he kowtowed forcefully, his head knocking the ground until his forehead was bruised and bleeding, and only then did he slowly stand up.

His heart, along with Ah Yin's tragic death, had completely grown cold.

Looking at the small mound, he tossed the only remaining grass shaft into it, and instantly, countless ants rushed toward it, continuing to consume Ah Yin's body.

When Tang Hao saw the last grass shaft disappear without a trace, he felt an emptiness in his heart, yet there was also a sense of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

"Sigh, sometimes one mistake can be irrevocable; you know continuing down the path is wrong, but you still have to walk it step by step."

"By the way, Ah Yin, our child, Tang San, is a prodigy. He has inherited both our Martial Souls, Blue Silver Grass and Hao Tian Hammer. Perhaps after he absorbs the soul bone you left behind, he could fully become the Bluesilver Emperor Martial Soul. Most importantly, there is a hundred-thousand-year-old Transforming soul beast by his side. Although this soul beast seems to have discovered my presence, it still could not avoid that fate. After absorbing her Soul Ring and soul bone, Xiaosan could also become an unrivaled powerhouse." Tang Hao said indifferently. Once there is a first, there will be a second.

He had no real connection with Xiaowu, so arranging for her to be sacrificed for Xiaosan's sake was acceptable. It's just that this hundred-thousand-year rabbit seemed to have sensed something, so things might be a bit more troublesome in the future.

Tang Hao turned to leave, but as he turned around, his facial expression completely changed.

His face turned as pale as death.
