Chapter 50 Ah Yin's soul, frightened Tang Hao_1

```

That was a strikingly beautiful silhouette.

The woman possessed an exceptionally beautiful face, with a gentle and amiable look, clad in a blue and gold long dress, exuding a regal and elegant temperament. On her transcendent countenance, a pair of deep blue eyes, flawless like sapphires, shimmered.

She floated gently in the air, with wafts of faint fragrance assailing the senses, her cheeks a healthy white tinged with pink, stunningly lovely. Her delicate feet, unshod and fair beyond compare, stood poised in mid-air as if weightless.

Upon seeing the visage of Ah Yin projected by the System, Xu Ran couldn't suppress a stir in his heart. Even Xiaowu and Zhu Zhuqing paled in comparison before Ah Yin. After all, they were still too young to rival the fully matured beauty of Ah Yin.

Ah Yin's perfect figure and curves, her divinely splendid face, and her skin like the finest jade, all caused Xu Ran's spirit to waver.

No wonder she was the woman that both Tang Hao of the Hao Tian Clan and Tang Xiao were infatuated with.

She was indeed incomparably stunning.

Every hundred-thousand-year soul beast that underwent Transformation was beautiful. Although Xu Ran didn't know what they had to go through during Transformation, considering that during the Period of the Unrivaled Tang Sect, the Three-eyed Golden Lion had transformed into Wang Qiu'er, he could somewhat deduce that they could change their faces at will. Naturally, they wouldn't intentionally make themselves less attractive.

Moreover, after the Transformation of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, their bodies, strengthened by their immense power, naturally possessed skin and health far superior to that of ordinary humans.

If Xu Ran was astonished by Ah Yin's appearance, then Tang Hao was terrified.

"Ah Yin, Ah Yin... how did you come?"

"How could you still be alive?"

Tang Hao staggered backward and fell to the ground, a shudder of dread filled his heart. Seeing Ah Yin's beautiful face again, he was so afraid.

Hadn't Ah Yin been devoured cleanly by insects and ants? So who was this person now? Could it be an impersonation?

But that unique noble and elegant aura of Ah Yin was unmistakable.

As the saying goes, "Those with a clear conscience do not fear spirits knocking at their door." Had someone else stood before him like this, he would never have reacted this way and might even have thought that someone was playing tricks or pretending to be a ghost.

But with Ah Yin, he just couldn't stay calm.

Recalling the things he had done to Ah Yin in the past filled him with both guilt and fear. He was powerful, but how could he raise his hand against Ah Yin when facing her?

"Hao brother, what are you talking about? Don't you want to see me?" Ah Yin spoke, her soft voice reaching him.

"No, of course not. I've been missing you all these years," Tang Hao shook his head vehemently, his frantic heart slightly calmed after a brief period. He fixed his gaze on Ah Yin and suddenly noticed that her body seemed somewhat ethereal, not solid, suspended in the air unaffected by gravity.

Could this be the soul of Ah Yin?

Thinking this, Tang Hao's heart clenched once again.

He couldn't help but lower his head. When he looked up again, he couldn't help but startle.

```

Ah Yin before me had already changed into a long dress of pale white, her lower half had long vanished, and her stunningly beautiful face was deathly pale, without the slightest hint of color.

"Brother Hao, was your death related to me?" Ah Yin suddenly widened her eyes, rushed straight in front of Tang Hao, and stopped less than a centimeter from his cheek. Her gaze fixed firmly on Tang Hao, filled with what seemed like anger, resentment, and unwillingness.

"No, no, no, Ah Yin, weren't you sacrificed back then? I'm sorry, I failed to protect you." Tang Hao's heart clenched with fear, and as he looked at the pallid Ah Yin before him, his mind stopped working.

Ah Yin was his unresolved issue, his nightmare; facing her, he didn't dare to entertain any other thoughts.

Especially since Ah Yin had hit the nail on the head and brought up the guilt he had been concealing. This made him even more scared.

"But why, when Brother Hao was about to break through, did the Martial Soul Hall suddenly become aware of my existence? Why didn't you let me hide in the Aquipeia Forest when the Martial Soul Hall came to kill me? If I had hid in the forest back then, I could have activated the Undying Immortal Domain, turned into a vast ocean of Blue Silver Grass, and those Titled Douluo wouldn't have been able to find my true form and kill me. Why didn't you let me in?" Ah Yin continued to press, her eyes becoming increasingly venomous.

That terrifying gaze, like that of a venomous snake, nearly shattered Tang Hao's heart. How did Ah Yin know? How did she find out about what happened back then?

Tang Hao couldn't help feeling a chill down his spine. Having those deep-seated guilts dug up, anyone would feel a wave of fear. This had nothing to do with strength; even the most powerful Soul Master would be extremely vulnerable when facing their own nightmares.

"Ah Yin, I was afraid that you would be punished if you went there. There are so many ferocious beasts in the Aquipeia Forest. They might have been displeased with your Transformation, and I was worried about you..." Tang Hao said, tilting his head, unable to look directly into Ah Yin's eyes.

"Afraid? Then why didn't you let me escape alone? I might have had a chance to survive then."

"Is it because you, while we were fleeing together, deliberately left a trail, luring the Titled Douluo from the Martial Soul Hall to us?" Ah Yin's voice suddenly grew loud and became somewhat shrill.

"Is it because you wanted to obtain the Soul Ring from my body?"

"Is it because you, close to advancing to Titled Douluo, planned to have me killed?"

"Is it because you deliberately planted me in this place devoid of sunlight, wanting me to perish on my own?"

"Is it, is it..." As Ah Yin spoke, she stepped closer and closer to Tang Hao, her eyes wide with pronounced bloodshot threads, making Tang Hao feel utterly terrified.

And Tang Hao backed away step by step out of fear.

Finding no escape, Tang Hao leaned against the stone wall, looked at Ah Yin, steeled himself, and bit his lip.

"It was me, I did it all, are you satisfied now?" Tang Hao shouted, looking at the ghost of Ah Yin before him, he couldn't take it anymore.

"All of it was indeed done by me back then, I'm sorry. The harm I caused you, I can never make amends in this lifetime." Tang Hao collapsed on the ground, looking at Ah Yin. When he finally spoke the truth, he suddenly found himself feeling much better, and the burden in his heart was lifted at that moment.

For the past twelve years, he had lived in self-blame, regret, and fear—during those twelve years, he could only sleep when drunk. He dared not confide this burden to anyone else and had to silently endure it alone.

Now, as he spoke these truths to Ah Yin, the relief in his heart was immense.

After voicing these truths, which had been buried deep in his heart, his view of Ah Yin was no longer filled with the previous horror.
