Chapter 11 Dragon Scales
Ye Yu's figure appeared very lonely as he arrived at the foot of a small hill outside the village.
Rumble...
Dark clouds filled the sky, and azure lightning raged. Soon, a torrential downpour began.
The rain soaked Ye Yu's entire body, and his face was covered not only in rainwater but also in tears.
Ye Yu desperately wanted to know about his background and his parents. But after learning some of the details today, he realized that his mother was no longer with him.
To survive, even without a heart, she persevered and refused to collapse, all for the sake of giving birth. This love is truly magnificent.
"What exactly happened? Who did it...?"
Ye Yu clenched his fists tighter and tighter, his anger and hatred rising within him.
Having learned about his past, and knowing that his mother was no longer alive, Ye Yu felt a deep sorrow.
At the same time, the hatred grew stronger. Who did all this? Who was so ruthless as to seriously injure his own mother, and even kill her for a period of time?
Because she died, she was able to deceive everyone, which also led to her unborn child becoming a stillborn fetus.
Then, the mother used powerful healing techniques to come back to life from her apparent death, gritting her teeth and persevering in her life, all for the sake of giving birth to him and keeping herself alive.
Ye Yu's anger surged, his whole body trembled, and his hatred was overwhelming.
"ah!!!!"
Ye Yu roared loudly, his heart aching and filled with resentment upon learning of his mother's death. At the same time, a certain power within him seemed to resonate with him.
Upon learning this news, it seemed that not only Ye Yu was enraged, but also the power deep within him.
Gradually, with a roar, Ye Yu's eyes were completely replaced by darkness, and his consciousness gradually blurred.
With a roar filled with boundless hatred, Ye Yu's left arm surged with extremely evil black energy.
Black energy swirled around Ye Yu's left arm, causing it to swell beneath it. The black energy was so dense and pure that it was impossible to discern the true state of Ye Yu's left arm.
Black mist filled the air, and the sky was filled with turbulent clouds. The appearance of this extremely malevolent energy seemed to make the heavens and earth tremble.
Meanwhile, the blacksmith shop in Holy Soul Village.
Tang Hao, who was preparing to rest, suddenly felt a chill and looked out of the window at the outside of the village.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Tang San asked, his expression hardening at Tang Hao's expression, his heart filled with surprise.
"It's nothing. Stay home and wait for me. Don't go out."
Tang Hao's instructions were unusually solemn, delivered with an unquestionable tone.
Tang San nodded.
Tang Hao walked out of his house, and after walking a distance, sensing that no one was around, he transformed into a black shadow and flashed towards the foot of the hill outside the village.
Tang San sensed something was wrong, because he suddenly felt incredibly oppressed. It wasn't because of the dark clouds and torrential rain, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was. He tried to sense it carefully, but he couldn't detect any energy.
Tang San couldn't sense it, but Tang Hao could.
Tang San couldn't sense it because his strength was too weak, as if one dimension couldn't sense a higher dimension.
Tang Hao quickly approached, his heart pounding: "What terrifying, pure evil energy is this?"
Within two breaths, Tang Hao arrived, but the scene before him shocked him and left him in disbelief.
"Xiaoyu?"
Tang Hao was about to step forward, but found that Ye Yu seemed to be out of his mind. He looked at Ye Yu's left arm and frowned: "What's going on? Xiao Yu's arm is enveloped in extremely evil energy."
Boom!!!
The next second, under Tang Hao's horrified gaze, Ye Yu, who had lost his mind, became frenzied and began to destroy, slamming his left hand, which was shrouded in black energy, into a hundred-meter-high hill.
With a deafening roar, the entire hill instantly crumbled and collapsed, turning into a pile of ruins!
"This..." Tang Hao was extremely shocked to see this scene.
One strike could destroy a small mountain a hundred meters in size. Although a Soul Master could do it with all their might, Xiao Yu was only six years old and had not yet become a Soul Master; she was only a Level 10 Soul Warrior.
"Xiaoyu, what's wrong?"
Tang Hao flashed to Ye Yu's side, his expression changed, and he noticed Ye Yu's eyes, which had become completely black, with the whites of his eyes completely filled with black.
Whew!!!
There was no response, and the left arm, shrouded in black energy, slammed down violently.
Tang Hao quickly retreated with a light tap of his toes, his brows slightly furrowed.
Tang Hao raised his right hand, and a huge artifact appeared in his palm. At the same time, nine spirit rings rose around his body.
Yellow, purple, black, black, black, red!
The best spirit ring configuration, and the last spirit ring cannot be described as black, because it faintly emits a faint red light!
This is a spirit ring that is nearly 100,000 years old!
"It seems I have no choice but to knock you out, Xiaoyu. You should be able to handle it."
Tang Hao's nine spirit rings disappeared, but the huge artifact in his hand remained. He held it in one hand and casually swung it out.
With just a casual wave, a howling sound like ghosts wailing and wolves howling rang out, and the space in its path trembled.
Having lost his mind, Ye Yu slammed out his left arm, colliding with the massive object.
Boom!!
A deafening roar drowned out the muffled thunder in the sky.
Whoosh!
Ye Yu was sent flying backwards, crashing into the ruins and disappearing without a trace.
Tang Hao retrieved the enormous object from his hand, rushed towards the ruins, and quickly carried Ye Yu out.
Ye Yu had already fallen unconscious, and the extremely evil black energy on his left arm gradually dissipated.
As the black mist dissipated, Tang Hao's pupils contracted, and he saw Ye Yu's left arm clearly.
The black scales on his left arm disappeared one by one, and in the blink of an eye, his left arm had returned to its original state.
Tang Hao was shocked: "Those were... dragon scales?"
Tang Hao gave Ye Yu a deep look and sighed softly, "It seems that this kid is indeed extraordinary. His body is so strong because of this energy."
Tang Hao tried to sense Ye Yu's body more carefully, but he couldn't detect any energy. It was as if the evil energy from before had completely disappeared.
"It's completely undetectable now, that's good." In Tang Hao's view, it's best if this uncontrollable energy isn't detected by anyone in the end. It's also best not to erupt again before it becomes uncontrollable.
Although he didn't know what caused the outburst, Tang Hao felt that since even he, with his Title Douluo strength, couldn't sense it, it meant that it was hidden very deeply, and it would be difficult for it to erupt again.
"Perhaps he suffered some great shock," Tang Hao guessed, noticing the tear stains on Ye Yu's face.
Without thinking further, Tang Hao picked up Ye Yu and prepared to go home.
Just then, Old Jack arrived. Ye Yu had gone out alone, and it was raining heavily, so he was a little worried. He had heard a commotion here and rushed over quickly.
When he arrived, old Jack was astonished, because what was once a small hill had become ruins.
Tang Hao carried Ye Yu over, and Old Jack looked worried when he saw Ye Yu unconscious.
"Tang Hao, what's wrong with Xiaoyu?"
"It's nothing, he just fell into a deep sleep."
Old Jack breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the ruins ahead, and asked in horror, "What happened?"
Tang Hao naturally chose to conceal the truth, shaking his head and saying, "I don't know either. It was already like this when I arrived. Let's not talk about this anymore. You take Xiaoyu back."
"Alright, alright." Old Jack nodded, gently picked up Ye Yu, and carried him home.
After arriving home, Old Jack gently placed Ye Yu on the bed. He was initially worried and wondered if he should call a doctor. But soon, upon hearing Ye Yu snoring, the worry on Old Jack's face completely disappeared.
"She slept really soundly; looks like nothing's wrong."
...
As Tang Hao walked home, the scenes from earlier kept replaying in his mind.
"The most malevolent dark energy, the black dragon scales... what exactly are they?"
