Chapter 270: Explosion in Silence (Long Chapter)

"What, what happened?"

After hearing Su Cheng's voice, Ah Yin was stunned for a moment, and her half-closed eyes widened slightly.

Then she quickly retracted her arm as if she had received an electric shock, subconsciously grasped her collar with her backhand, and asked in a low voice with a stammer.

As soon as she spoke, she suddenly noticed that her slightly hoarse voice was a little strange.

It was as if a sticky and moist moisture flowed down her throat, choked between her lips and tongue, and then exhaled with her mouth and nose.

Her heart beat very fast, like thundering drumbeats.

The burning flame burned in her chest, and blood gushed out from the aorta of the heart, and then swept through her body like boiling magma, drowning her reason, making her feel a little dizzy and light.

Su Cheng's heartbeat also accelerated a lot at this moment.

He swallowed his saliva, quickly looked away, got up first and walked into the flowers, looking at the precious plants that had been transplanted.

In the flower garden, in addition to some species in the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, there are also rare and precious herbs that Ju Douluo has found from other places during this period.

Yue Guan loves flowers and has found many precious flowers and plants from many famous mountains and dangerous places before.

However, most of those plants need special environment support to grow, and he himself has no means to raise them in ordinary environments, so he has never transplanted them.

Later, after seeing Ah Yin's methods, he no longer had to worry about it, and brought those long-coveted treasures back to Wuhun City for breeding and cultivation.

Su Cheng has been in Wuhun City for so long, but he has never been to this flower garden. However, due to his own professional reasons, he is also very interested in herbs.

At this moment, he was attracted by the scenery here, and he watched it with interest, gradually letting go of the beautiful moment just now.

After a long time, Ah Yin's figure came closer from behind him, and her face still had some shy blush.

Su Cheng, on the other hand, was carefully observing a tea tree more than half a person tall in front of him.

Its trunk is curved and tough, with ravines and grooves on the bark, full of traces of time. The emerald leaves sparkle in the sun, and they don't look delicate.

If he hadn't heard Bibi Dong say it before, he wouldn't have thought that the growth environment required for this thing is so harsh, and it's hard for Ah Yin to take care of it so vigorously.

Su Cheng didn't look back, staring at the tea tree and asked calmly: "I heard from His Holiness the Pope that this is the mother tree of Ambergris that produces those tea leaves? Where did you find it? I have never heard of this variety of tea tree before."

Ah Yin was stunned for a moment after hearing his calm voice. She didn't answer immediately, but looked at Su Cheng with her peripheral vision.

Then, a touch of astonishment and shame flashed in her eyes.

The other party's calmness is really not pretended!

Although I understand that Su Cheng's calm attitude of changing the subject at this time is probably to avoid embarrassment.

But this expression of nothing happening still makes her feel a little depressed.

So the tone of his voice seemed a little cold, "I don't know, this is what Elder Ju found. It was half dead at the time, and asked me if I could revive it."

"So that's how it is."

Su Cheng nodded and glanced at Ah Yin in surprise.

This tone is not like the other person's character.

Is he angry?

Because of what happened just now?

It seems that the previous behavior was indeed a bit too much.

At that time, he was too involved and didn't take Ah Yin's feelings into consideration.

Now that I think about it, that approach is probably more unacceptable than the previous study of her body composition.

The other party's reaction after the study also proved this point.

But in this case, why didn't she choose to interrupt herself halfway?

Although if she stopped halfway, the collected data would not be perfect, but the effect would not be too different...

The two walked through the flower garden in silence.

Except for the rustling sound of the breeze passing through the flowers, the whole flower garden was silent.

Su Cheng occasionally reached out to touch the flowers and plants he had never seen before, observed and sniffed, and then thought about their uses.

Until they walked into the depths, Ah Yin suddenly hesitated and said, "Su Cheng, I have something to ask you."

"Go ahead."

Su Cheng put down the branches in his hand and raised his head.

Before this, Ah Yin seemed to be hesitant to speak.

But for some reason, she seemed to be worried and had not spoken. Only now did she finally make up her mind.

"Do you have any way to make ordinary soul masters no longer need to hunt soul beasts, so that they can advance to higher levels by condensing soul rings by themselves?"

She knew that Su Cheng could do this himself.

At that time in the Blue Silver Grass Forest, the other party obviously did not have the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, but forcibly activated the powerful martial soul bloodline in the Changsheng Sword, and then absorbed the massive soul power gathered by the Blue Silver King, and directly condensed his fifth soul ring.

At that time, Ah Yin still had a very close connection with the Changsheng Sword and could feel everything that happened in it.

The whole process amazed her.

It was also thanks to this that she made the same attempt some time ago and successfully condensed the eighth soul ring to become a Soul Douluo.

However, because she herself had done the same thing, she knew how difficult it was.

In this process, a large amount of external natural concentrated soul power was needed, which was not a big deal.

The medium to stimulate the martial soul bloodline was not a problem either, as the soul master's soul power could activate it.

The biggest difficulty was that only a strong and pure high-quality martial soul bloodline could generate the ring of blank law.

So this method is obviously difficult to promote.

However, Ah Yin still clearly remembers that Su Cheng did not know how to use soul power at that time. He completed the step of stimulating blood by taking some medicine.

So she was thinking, if the medicine can be improved and optimized, can it have some effect?

"..." Ah Yin looked at Su Cheng expectantly.

She believed that as long as there was a means of self-generated soul rings, the survival pressure of the soul beast clan would be greatly reduced.

The risk of soul masters hunting soul beasts is only one reason.

The key is that as long as there is enough natural soul power in the outside world, the self-generated soul ring can be easily filled to the maximum age it can reach, and the soul skills produced will also be extremely consistent with the essence of the soul master's martial soul, and the combat power after promotion will be stronger.

No soul master can resist this temptation.

Once this method is popularized, soul masters will be idle and will advance by killing soul beasts.

The risk is high and the effect is not good.

"This matter is of great importance and very troublesome..."

"I can help you study the follow-up. Didn't you say a long time ago that you hated this way of promotion? And I am also very good at spiritual medicine, and can provide you with many ideas."

"..."

Su Cheng did not answer immediately, but stood there in silence.

Whether Ah Yin helped or not was not the most critical issue.

Even the "trouble" he mentioned was not the main problem.

The problem lies in the risks after the matter is completed.

He needs the right time to do this.

The impact of this move is no less than the release of the first volume of the complete version of Xiantian Gong, and it is even more serious to some extent.

If it attracts the attention of the God Realm, or alarms the Silver Dragon King who is still sleeping, the consequences may be unpredictable.

He does not have much ability to resist risks now.

Otherwise, there is no need for Ah Yin to mention it, he will definitely be willing to take the initiative to promote this matter.

If a soul master wants to cultivate the innate power, the purer the composition of his own energy, the better.

Absorbing the soul rings on the soul beast will pollute his own soul power.

If the attributes of the absorbed soul ring are not compatible with the martial soul, it will even directly cut off the way forward, and it is extremely difficult to reverse.

Su Cheng was able to resonate with the five elements, so he cleaned up the impurities of the laws from the soul rings of soul beasts. How many other soul masters can do this?

However, these secrets are of great importance, so it is not convenient for him to tell Ah Yin directly.

"..." Ah Yin's eyes have never left Su Cheng.

She found some concerns in his expression.

Although she didn't know the exact reason, it was obviously not just as simple as the process was troublesome.

A pair of clear blue eyes also went from initial expectation to worry and uneasiness, and finally dimmed a little bit, and her heart was empty.

She whispered: "You still don't believe me, right?"

Su Cheng did not answer.

There was silence around.

It was clear that just a moment ago, the two of them were not like this.

Although the atmosphere just now was a little awkward, that atmosphere seemed to have returned to two years ago, when they were honest with each other and even shared their thoughts...

After a long while, Su Cheng coughed lightly and was still ready to explain.

After the "physical examination" just now, although the process was very academic and serious, if I say it too bluntly this time like before, it will feel like I am being ruthless.

And this matter is actually not about belief or disbelief, but a choice.

The power of choice is not in his hands.

"A Yin, I might as well tell you something. If nothing unexpected happens, I will definitely fight with Tang San in the future. I have reasons to do so. This also means that Tang Hao is the same.

"Moreover, you should understand that even if I don't target Tang Hao, because of your existence, he will definitely regard me as his mortal enemy. And with my personality, I will never sit and wait for death. So as long as I am alive, sooner or later he and Tang San will die in my hands. "

"..."Hearing these words, Ah Yin's breath was slightly choked and her face turned pale.

The fragrance of flowers wafted, and scattered sunlight fell on the path in the valley.

There were so many flowers here that even Su Cheng could hardly recognize all the plants.

The heart of the woman in front of him was as puzzling as this magnificent flower garden.

But could she see it clearly herself?

Su Cheng glanced at the silent Ah Yin and sighed in his heart.

Then he stopped talking.

Turning around, he walked away without any reluctance.

"...Wait. "

Before he walked too far, a woman's anxious cry suddenly came from behind him.

Su Cheng paused, his shoulders did not move, he just turned his head and waited quietly for the next words.

In the warm and bright spring light, his expressionless profile lines looked unusually cold.

This wolf-like look made Ah Yin's heart tremble.

Yes, he is indeed such a person, he has always been such a person, hasn't he known it for a long time?

The words of dissuasion that she wanted to say could no longer be said.

She could never influence his decision.

Ah Yin knew Su Cheng's past, that was what he told her personally.

So she also knew that the man in front of her only looked gentle on the surface, but in fact, he was more indifferent than anyone else in his heart.

His wanton indulgence and his ruthlessness were often because of a whim.

He is like a passerby in this world. Unless you get into his heart, it will be difficult for you to seduce or provoke him in any way to create too many waves in his heart.

He doesn't care at all.

According to what Su Cheng said at the time, he still had memories of another world.

When Su Cheng said those words, the loneliness he showed was still fresh in Ah Yin's memory.

She didn't know how profound the so-called "another memory" the other party mentioned was.

But that moment touched her the most.

However, he once seemed to have walked into the depths of Su Cheng's heart. That was probably his loneliest time. His lover is thousands of miles away, and he himself is weak and unaccompanied.

But because of a misunderstanding, they were divided into two worlds again.

It was just the moment of getting along and talking that gave her the illusion that everything seemed to have gone back to the past, when they could talk to each other about everything.

Su Cheng would ask her for some knowledge about plants and trees, and would also talk to her about some negative emotions accumulated in daily life, and treat her like a close sister...

That's right, Ah Yin himself defines his identity in this way.

Although more often than not, the other party would laugh at her ignorance, naivety...

It was at this moment that she suddenly realized that this was not the case.

The so-called return to the past is of course just an illusion.

A lot of things happened, they just happened, and they can't be changed.

From the moment you are out of his control.

When I stood in front of his sword that day.

Everything was already different.

There is no place for him in his heart anymore.

She couldn't be the one he confided in, let alone play the role of the sister.

In the future, he will continue to be alone.

All secrets will only be hidden deep in his own heart.

Qian Renxue is the one he loves, but Qian Renxue cannot share those secrets because that woman is too strong, and she may not even know about Zhu Zhuqing's existence.

The same cannot be said for Zhu Zhuqing. That girl is still burdened with heavy pressure...

"I can study with you."

Looking at Su Cheng's side face, A Yin said in a quick voice.

"My power should be of great help to your research, right? You just said that my situation is very complicated.

"I know that my soul power has some wonderful characteristics, and you can definitely use these.

"Besides, Su Cheng, I have never mentioned your secrets to anyone. You can trust me!"

"..."

Su Cheng didn't reply. This was not the answer he wanted to hear.

So he turned his head silently.

Then keep walking away...

Ah Yin stared at his figure walking further and further away, her mind feeling dizzy as if she was lacking oxygen.

It shouldn't be like this...

It can't be like this!

She has given in countless times.

Xiaowu's death.

Until the departure of Tang Hao and Tang San.

When she joined the Wuhun Hall, she was treated coldly and even harshly by countless people.

Today, she even allows the other party to know all her secrets...

He has obviously already retreated to this step and made him do such an excessive thing...

"...What else do you need from me?"

This time, the voice from behind suddenly became excited.

Also mixed with heavy breathing.

Hearing this, Su Cheng stopped again, was stunned for a moment and then turned around.

"Isn't this enough now..."

There was no trace of blood on Ah Yin's delicate cheeks.

The blood that was previously as hot as boiling cooled down little by little, condensing into ice slag and flowing in the body.

Her fists were clenched tightly, and her joints were slightly white from the exertion.

"It's been almost two years..."

Ah Yin looked miserable.

"Do you know where this is?

"This is the Wuhun Palace, the place where all soul beasts are most hostile and fearful...

"They regarded me as an alien and looked down upon me. Do you know that I died in the hands of these people...

"Bibi Dong treats me as a chess piece that can be manipulated at will. She is the descendant of Qian Xunji, and her martial spirit is stained with the blood of a hundred thousand year old soul beast!

"Under her body, sitting is a throne made of the lives of countless of my kind!

"But what can I do? Without her, I can't stay in this Wuhun City..."

Su Cheng stared at Ah Yin blankly, being caught off guard by her sudden outburst.

The content of those words made his heart heavy.

Not far ahead, A Yin's catharsis was not over yet.

"Except for you, I don't have a single friend here. All I see every day are enemies!"

Tears flowed down his pale cheeks and then fell to the ground.

The originally bright red lips became pale and dry.

"Do I have to tell you personally that you can kill Tang Hao?!

"Only if I say this can you be willing to believe me. Is this sentence so important to you?!

“Or maybe one day I will have to personally take action to satisfy you?

"Except for going back to the Blue Silver Grass Forest once, I have never left Wuhun City for such a long time!

"Since you didn't want to believe me, why couldn't you just kill me then?

"It's easy for you to do this kind of thing! With your ruthlessness, would you have any scruples because of your soft heart?!"

Her voice gradually became hoarse, and her red eyes trembled slightly, but she still looked straight at Su Cheng stubbornly.

"Have you never lied to me before?

"You clearly said before that you would not kill the transformed soul beast. Because I stopped you from killing her, you tortured me like this?

"Yes, I was out of your control and did not tell you about this.

"So, I deserve to continue to be your slave, be your sword spirit, and be controlled by you at will over my life and death?"

Su Cheng could not help but remain silent.

He had never seen the other party lose his composure like this.

Even when he had just awakened his soul body, he was mostly ashamed and afraid, but his emotions were not particularly excited.

He opened his mouth, "I never said-"

"You resurrected me and gave me a second life.

"My life belongs to you, and it is natural for you to kill me, but why do you torture me like this!

"Okay, since you want to hear it, then I'll tell you!

"I have nothing to do with Tang Hao anymore. Just do whatever you want!"

"If you are still not satisfied, then put the chains on me again. With your means, it should be easy to do this..."

As she spoke, her voice gradually became lower.

Tears flowed freely on her cheeks.

This magnificent flower garden once again regained its tranquility.

A Yin's body collapsed to the ground, her head buried between her legs, and the whole person curled up into a ball.

"...Why bother, why bother?"

A familiar voice suddenly came from behind, and a warm palm pressed on her thin shoulders.

She finally couldn't bear it anymore, turned around and buried her head in the arms of the person behind her and sobbed softly.

Su Cheng sighed silently, with a complicated expression.

Perhaps A Yin's outburst was not just because of his attitude just now.

In the past year or so, she has been in Wuhun City, and the various external pressures she has endured are probably far beyond her imagination.

This kind of mood, people who have not experienced similar situations, will probably never really understand it.
