Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

"I am human, no matter what other kinds of bloodlines may flow in my veins, I'm still human. I grew up living with my mother, and she always told me we are human. I've seen too much of human suffering. The purpose of my becoming the City Lord was to help our people, to give humans a certain living space, so we are no longer slaves or servants, or even used as food. Therefore, no matter what, I will not separate out the human bloodline."

Compared to her previous anxiety, at this moment, her voice was firm and decisive, without a hint of hesitation.

The White Tiger Great Demon King's gaze suddenly turned icy cold as he indifferently said, "Then there's nothing more to say. If you're seeking death, no one can protect you."

Just as Pretty Girl was about to say something, her palm was enveloped in a warm embrace. The stubbornness in her heart suddenly seemed to have found support, and her emotions stabilized a bit.

Tang San held her hand and said somberly, "Your Highness, I understand your concern and am very grateful for your understanding. But, as Little Beauty said, we all have human blood flowing through our veins. We cannot stand by and watch our clansmen remain slaves and food forever. Someone has to resist, even if it leads to failure, we must try. Otherwise, the backbone of humanity will never be able to straighten."

The White Tiger Great Demon King stared at him coldly. "Are you the Asura from before?"

Tang San nodded slightly.

The White Tiger Great Demon King said flatly, "Your aura has changed quite a bit; it seems you have made some progress. She has also entered the God Rank. But you need to understand that in the presence of Emperors, your trivial strength is nothing more than a drop in the ocean. If the Ancestral Court wishes, crushing you is as simple as crushing ants. My warning is merely to tell you what you're up against. As for what you do, that is your own affair. That's all!"

Having said that, he had already stood up.

"Your Highness, please wait a moment," Tang San also stood up, calling after the White Tiger Great Demon King who was clearly intending to leave.

The White Tiger Great Demon King said indifferently, "Our paths diverge; there's no point planning together. What more is there to say when a rotting wood cannot be carved?"

Tang San said in a deep voice, "What if we opt for an exchange of interests? Could we then gain your support?"

For the first time, the White Tiger Great Demon King showed a look of surprise. "An exchange of interests? What, do you want to give me Jiali City as well? I already have a main city, and the Ancestral Court would not allow me to control a second."

Tang San shook his head, "Not Jiali City."

The White Tiger Great Demon King said coolly, "Besides Jiali City, what other bargaining chips do you have? There are not many things in your possession that I would value."

Tang San pointed to the Teleportation Array on the ground next to him and said, "What about this? This is just a prototype. The completed Teleportation Array that I can create is capable of ultra-long-distance teleportation. With sufficient cultivation base, instant travel from one end of the continent to the other is not impossible."

The pupils of the White Tiger Great Demon King contracted for a moment. It had actually been studying this array recently. The more it studied, the more it appreciated the profundity within it. However, the circle was interlinked, and it couldn't completely unravel it, as any significant tampering would cause the array to self-destruct, much to its regret. If it hadn't been researching this array and placing such importance on this place, it wouldn't have rushed over as soon as Pretty Girl and Tang San arrived.

But after only a moment's thought, it shook its head and said, "Not enough. You have to understand that what you are trying to do is nearly an impossible task. Asking me to do something meaningless is not worth it for just that."

After a moment of contemplation, Tang San said, "What about this then?"

As he spoke, he took a step forward. The Spirit Rhinoceros Eye that he had been using to conceal his aura receded, releasing the fluctuations of his bloodline.

Suddenly, two brilliant lights burst forth from the eyes of the White Tiger Great Demon King, and almost in the next instant, he had already struck toward Tang San with a palm.

Pretty Girl was startled and exclaimed with a cry, about to step forward but was pulled back by Tang San.

"Bang!" The palm of the White Tiger Great Demon King landed on Tang San's chest, not exerting any force, but merely placing his large palm there. In that moment, the face of the Great Demon King underwent a drastic change, a very violent change. In its eyes was filled with shock and even when looking at Tang San, there was a hint of disbelief.

"No, this can't be possible. Even we couldn't achieve it, how did you do it?" The White Tiger Great Demon King's voice raised a few notches.

Tang San said, "Is this enough to qualify for Your Majesty's support?"

The White Tiger Great Demon King took a deep breath and returned to his seat on the couch.

Tang San also pulled Pretty Girl back to sit down on the couch.

What he let the White Tiger Great Demon King feel was very simple, it was the aura of his Golden Body Variation bloodline.

As a sovereign of his generation, the White Tiger Great Demon King immediately understood what that bloodline fluctuation was as soon as he felt it. This was something even the Great Peacock Demon King had not perceived clearly, because the Peacock Demon King's state was not sufficient, nor did he have a pursuit in this area. But for all Emperors, this was what they had been seeking all along—for this was what could possibly take them to the next level, a step further!

Bloodline is the foundation of the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan. The strength of the bloodline determines potential and the future.

The Emperor's Posture is already the highest praise, but it's still a First Level Bloodline, or rather, a top-tier First Level Bloodline that can be pushed to the extreme to achieve Emperor status, breaking through to the Twelfth Stage.

However, on this continent, it has been tens of thousands of years since an Emperor appeared. Generation after generation of Emperors have been studying one issue: how to reach a higher level, or if there is even a higher level of power that exists.

After countless generations of study, the Emperors of the Ancestral Court have unified in two beliefs: first, that there must be a higher level of existence above the Empires. The more powerful the Emperor, the stronger their sensation in this regard, and the more certain they are. The second is that to reach a higher level, the current bloodline strength is not enough; one must develop a more robust bloodline to possibly reach a higher level of state.

For this reason, countless Emperors have devoted themselves to this research, and extremely powerful Emperors have suddenly died due to Bloodline Backlash during the process of their study. As time went on, the Emperors gradually scaled back their research in this area, because they could vaguely sense that there seemed to be an invisible hand in this world, suppressing them, preventing them from stepping into another realm.

This was similar to what the White Tiger Great Demon King had said to Pretty Girl earlier, that the number of Emperors allowed in this world is limited. It's the same principle.

But at this moment, just now, when the White Tiger Great Demon King felt the aura of Tang San's Golden Body Variation bloodline, he was instantly overwhelmed with shock because he could absolutely confirm that the intensity was not something any First Level Bloodline could explain.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

With his strength, how could he not see that Tang San had not yet broken through to God Rank? Yet, to have such intensity in bloodline strength without having ascended to Godhood was almost unbelievable. However, the fact was there before his eyes, compelling him to believe. This was why he personally placed his hand to carefully feel the intensity of Tang San's Golden Body Variation bloodline before he became certain.

Even though he knew this might not be useful to himself, at the very least, it was an opportunity! As a sovereign, especially an experienced senior emperor, nothing was more attractive to him than advancing further. Perhaps, with one more step forward, he could transcend the suppression of this world!

At this time, the White Tiger Great Demon King's gaze toward Tang San had completely changed.

"How did you do it?" the White Tiger Great Demon King asked in a deep voice.
