Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 759: The Source of Unease

"And there’s also the problem with you. If I were to forcibly separate you two, Little Mei wouldn’t agree. I can accept you being with her, but you must be behind her, not next to her. You can’t appear in public, and no one should know that she has a human partner. In fact, if possible, you should transform your bloodline, and make yourself more like a demon. That way, you can go further together, and she’ll have a real place in the Ancestral Court, maybe even ascend to the top. Her potential makes this possible."

Hearing the White Tiger Demon Emperor’s words, Tang San couldn’t help but frown, while a stubborn light flashed in Mei Gongzi’s eyes.

"I refuse. I am human, I’ve always been human. Humanity is at the core of my bloodline," Mei Gongzi retorted defiantly.

"Nonsense!" the White Tiger Demon Emperor roared, cutting her off. "What’s so good about being human? Humans are weak, nothing more than slaves. Whether it’s the Peacock Demon clan, the White Tiger clan, or the phoenix race, which one isn’t a hundred times more glorious, a thousand times more noble than humans? How can you be so blind? Humans are numerous, but the Ancestral Court will never allow a human Emperor to emerge. The settlement you’ve established near Kali City has caused significant dissatisfaction within the Ancestral Court. What do you think you’re doing? Leading a human rebellion? The Ancestral Court could wipe out all of humanity with a snap of its fingers. If you truly care about humans, you should distance yourselves from them and avoid causing trouble. That way, even as slaves, the human race might at least survive."

Tang San frowned deeply, as the unease he had felt in the cave resurfaced. "Your Majesty, we are humans, and that’s an undeniable fact. In the hearts of all the demon and nymph clans within the Ancestral Court, is it true that we humans will always be mere slaves? Has this idea become so deeply ingrained? Can’t we coexist peacefully and treat each other as equals?"

"That’s impossible." The White Tiger Demon Emperor waved his hand dismissively. "The true rulers of the Daemon Continent can only be demons and nymphs. All other races are merely slaves and vassals. Do you really think humanity could ever equal demons and nymphs in status? That’s nothing but a fool’s dream."

Suddenly, a light flashed in Tang San’s eyes, and he sprang up from the sofa, startling even Mei Gongzi beside him.

Tang San’s gaze burned as he stared at the White Tiger Demon Emperor, his eyes radiating cold light. "You... Did you attack the human settlement near Kali City?"

Mei Gongzi paled, and her gaze turned to the White Tiger Demon Emperor. "Grandfather..."

The White Tiger Demon Emperor narrowed his eyes, staring at Tang San with a cold, chilling gaze. His divine consciousness surged forth, pressuring Tang San. "Yes, your so-called human settlement has been razed to the ground. What are you going to do about it? That was the condition Celestial Fox set for allowing Little Mei to pass her evaluation."

It felt as though a thunderclap had exploded in Tang San’s divine consciousness.

He finally understood why such intense unease had been brewing in his heart. So, this was it. The human settlement had been destroyed. Although most people had already been relocated to the islands, there were still tens of thousands living there. That settlement was something they had painstakingly built, a place where they believed they could finally live in peace.

Mei Gongzi’s face turned ashen in an instant, and she stood up as well. Her voice trembled as she asked the White Tiger Demon Emperor, "Razed... to the ground? And the people? What about the people?"

The White Tiger Demon Emperor responded coldly, "Naturally, they’ve been reduced to dust. Since you couldn’t make the decision, I made it for you. That issue has been resolved. When you return, focus on managing Kali City properly, as I’ve advised you. Embrace your identity as demons. Stop thinking of yourselves as humans."

"Are you the one who did that?" Tang San’s voice suddenly turned icy cold. He looked at the White Tiger Demon Emperor, his gaze sharp as a blade.

The White Tiger Demon Emperor was startled to realize that the divine consciousness he had been using to suppress Tang San now had no effect. Tang San stood tall, as if he wasn’t even feeling it.

"So what if I am?" the White Tiger Demon Emperor replied coldly.

Tang San’s eyes turned golden in an instant. "No matter who it is, a blood debt must be repaid in blood!"

As he spoke, his divine consciousness exploded forth, shattering the White Tiger Demon Emperor’s oppressive force in an instant. A violent aura erupted from Tang San, and his power surged dramatically.

Behind Tang San, a swirling black-and-white light appeared, exuding a terrifying aura. It was the fusion of yin and yang, a power of unmatched intensity. Eight different lights surrounded the black and white yin-yang symbol, illuminating Tang San. His divine consciousness instantly merged with the black and white light, and a drop of crystalline blue fell, transforming his divine consciousness into a tangible blue aura that completely sealed the study.

Even the White Tiger Demon Emperor, with his immense power, felt suffocated. A look of astonishment appeared on his face. Although he had a feeling that Tang San was hiding his true strength, he hadn’t expected it to be at such a level.

The key issue was that the White Tiger Demon Emperor couldn’t quite grasp the extent of Tang San’s power. It was unclear—yes, unclear. At the same time, the bloodline aura Tang San now exuded was so overwhelming that it created a sense of pressure on the White Tiger Demon Emperor. This was clearly bloodline suppression!

A transcendent bloodline!

He clearly remembered that the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor had mentioned that the Crystal Demon Emperor had triggered a heavenly tribulation while attempting to harness a transcendent bloodline and ultimately perished. He also knew that Tang San had a transcendent bloodline himself, but it was completely different from this one. So how was this possible?

Right, this is yin-yang energy! This is definitely the yin-yang bloodline that Celestial Fox was talking about! It’s what Crystal used to fight against her tribulation! She fell, but he survived, and it seems he has inherited this transcendent bloodline!

For a moment, the White Tiger Demon Emperor was so shocked that he forgot Tang San was actually suppressing him.

In the next instant, Tang San extended his left hand, palm facing up, and a pagoda radiating white light emerged from his palm. In an instant, time and space distorted, and everything around them became an illusion. The White Tiger Demon Emperor felt as though his thoughts were slowing to a halt.

Then he saw the surging purple light in Tang San’s eyes, and in that instant, his mind went blank for a brief moment.

A sliver of divine consciousness was forcibly extracted by the Temporal Tower, and a scene appeared before Tang San and Mei Gongzi.

Two figures were suspended high in the air. One of them was the White Tiger Demon Emperor. The other was the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor, his expression grim. Below them was a place very familiar to both Tang San and Mei Gongzi—the human settlement next to Kali City.

White light surged in the eyes of the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor, and terrifying waves of divine consciousness burst forth, accompanied by an intense bloodline aura. In the sky, nine massive fox tails fluttered in the wind. Terrifying pressure descended from above.

In the next instant, everything on the ground was reduced to dust, leaving behind a massive crater. There were no screams, no panic, because everything had ended in a split second.

It was over, just like that.

"DO YOU FUCKING WANT TO DIE?!" A furious roar erupted, and a terrifying killing intent burst forth, scattering away everything in its wake.

Tang San let out a muffled grunt and took two steps back. The White Tiger Demon Emperor had already risen from his seat, his entire body emanating an almost palpable murderous aura. The terrifying killing intent was entirely focused on Tang San.
