-----------------------------------------

"Absolutely not, I won't let Linlin go to Mang Tian's place again!" Lang Yue said with a sob. To prevent the two children outside from hearing, she had already restrained her emotions as much as possible.

After hearing Lang Yue's account, how could Tang Ziran not feel heartache? He fell silent.

"Without experiencing the storm, how can one see the rainbow? No one can succeed easily. Ah Yue, I feel heartache when Linlin suffers too. But if he doesn't endure hardship now, he might suffer even more when he grows up."

"When I went to see Mang Tian, I could tell he was reluctant. As a Master-level Forger, he is proud, and for him to acknowledge our son, do you know how outstanding our son is? This child has truly given me a great surprise."

"Before I came home, Mang Tian called me via soul communication. He told me that our son has extraordinary talent and innate strength, even comparable to that of an ordinary adult male. More importantly, Linlin's perseverance moved him. Linlin's soul beast is Blue Silver Grass, and the possibility of him becoming a powerful soul master in the future is slim. However, if he can become an excellent forger, at least he can live a life without worry. The child hasn't shown any cowardice, so how can we, as parents, be the first to show cowardice? We should support him and encourage him. Moreover, I believe that as a six-star Master-level Forger, Mang Tian must have the right methods to teach his disciples and won't really harm the child."

"Can we let Linlin try again? If his body is really at risk, I will definitely stop him from continuing his studies no matter what."

In the end, Lang Yue compromised. She knew very well that her husband loved their son just as much as she did, and Tang Ziran's reasoning convinced her.

When the two returned to the living room, they saw Tang Wulin sitting there, chewing forcefully and smiling at Nai'er, who was awkwardly feeding him mouthful by mouthful.

This scene left Tang Ziran and Lang Yue stunned. The two beautiful children sitting there, bathed in the not-so-bright light, presented a harmonious picture.

Tang Ziran murmured softly, "Let's adopt this child. Having the two children grow up together will be very beneficial for Linlin."

"Okay." A smile finally appeared on Lang Yue's face.

A warm and family-filled dinner ended in such an atmosphere. Tang Wulin and Nai'er's appetites shocked Tang Ziran and Lang Yue once again.

Raising two children, the first problem they faced was whether they could ensure the children were well-fed.

After dinner, after discussing with Tang Ziran, Lang Yue decided to find a job as well. Relying solely on Tang Ziran's salary, the family was indeed in a difficult situation.

"Naier, look, this is my soul beast." Tang Wulin lifted his hand with some difficulty, and a small blue grass slowly emerged from his palm, emitting a faint blue glow and a gentle energy wave.

Naier poked the Blue Silver Grass in his hand curiously, "Brother, will I have a soul beast too in the future?"

Tang Wulin said, "Of course! Everyone has their own soul beast. When you turn six, you can awaken your soul beast next year. I'm so sleepy, I can't hold on anymore, I'm going to sleep. You should go to bed early too."

As he spoke, he fell onto his bed and was breathing evenly in no time.

Naier stared at him blankly, trying hard to recall something, but her mind was hazy, and she couldn't remember anything.

Lying in bed, she also fell asleep without realizing it.

In the dead of night, the door to Tang Wulin and Naier's room quietly opened, and Tang Ziran walked in. He sat by his son's bed, took out the medicine bottle given by Mang Tian to Lang Yue, and then pulled up his son's sleeve to apply the ointment.

He pressed his hand on his son's shoulder, and a small lamp attached to his shoulder lit up, just enough to illuminate Tang Wulin's arm.

"Hmm." Tang Ziran let out a light exclamation, staring at Tang Wulin's arm in a daze. He was surprised to find that his son's arm was not swollen as Lang Yue had said, and it looked no different from usual.

He carefully turned over Tang Wulin's palm, which was as smooth as jade, with no trace of any injury.

Surprised, Tang Ziran quickly pulled up the other sleeve, and the situation was the same. No matter how he looked, his son's arms did not appear to be injured.

Lang Yue would never lie to him, and Tang Ziran knew his wife very well.

But why had the swelling and injuries that should have been there disappeared? What was going on?

Could it be that his son's soul beast had taken effect? Some special soul beasts can heal themselves, but he had never heard of Blue Silver Grass having such a function!

What he didn't notice was that under Tang Wulin's black hair, a faint golden pattern on his forehead quietly disappeared...

Tang Ziran sat there for a moment, looking at the medicine bottle in his hand and then at his son's arm, his eyes showing a thoughtful expression.

After a while, he put the medicine bottle away and turned back to the room. His son's reaction the next morning would be the best way to verify the situation.

Morning.

Tang Wulin woke up very early, finished washing up, and ran to the kitchen to help his mother. Although he couldn't cook, he could at least carry plates and bowls.

"Linlin, does your arm still hurt?" Lang Yue immediately felt heartache when she saw her sensible son.

"Hmm, it doesn't seem to hurt anymore. I told you it was nothing." Tang Wulin shook his arm, and the soreness from yesterday had completely disappeared, as if he had never experienced such pain. He also felt that his arms seemed to have become stronger.

Lang Yue sighed in relief and smiled, "It seems the medicine Uncle Mang Tian gave you yesterday worked well. Now I'm relieved. After you fell asleep, your father went to apply the medicine for you."

Tang Ziran, who had just come out of the room, heard this conversation. Applying medicine? He hadn't done that!

Could it be that after his soul beast was awakened, not only did his son become stronger, but his self-healing ability also improved? This couldn't be the effect of Blue Silver Grass!

A hearty breakfast filled the small home with laughter and joy.

"Father, take me to school quickly. We're going to learn about soul beasts today. Oh, I was so sleepy last night that I forgot to meditate. When I come back today, you must remind me. I, Tang Wulin, will definitely become a powerful soul master."
