Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 925 - 923: Wait, I’m a bit confused
Chapter 925: Chapter 923: Wait, I’m a bit confused
“Wait a moment, I’m a bit confused. Just wait,” White Tiger Great Demon King interrupted him, and suddenly, his pupils shrank again, this time even to the size of a needlepoint, “Did you kill the Diamond Elf King?”
The White Tiger Great Demon King, known for his transcendent and penetrating power, spoke with a somewhat shrill voice.
Tang San helplessly said, “You might as well shout a bit louder, so the whole Ancestral Court can hear you.”
White Tiger Great Demon King waved his hand, enhancing the protective barrier on the top floor of the hotel, and looked at Tang San with a face full of shock, “Did you really kill him?”
Tang San nodded helplessly and said, “Sort of.”
White Tiger Great Demon King subconsciously took a step back, increasing the distance between him and Tang San.
Tang San was surprised to find that the emperor seemed to emit a hint of fear! Is it necessary? You and the Diamond Elf King aren’t on the same level, you are much stronger than him, I won’t kill you.
The breathing of White Tiger Great Demon King became noticeably heavier, and after quite a while, he managed to say, “How did you do it? Did the Tree Ancestor really awaken?”
Tang San said, “Indeed, I used the power of the Tree Ancestor, plus the Diamond Elf King was too arrogant, which gave me an opportunity.”
“But his combat power is average, yet his defensive power is among the top of all emperors. How did you do it?” White Tiger Great Demon King still couldn’t believe it.
Tang San grinned, showing his white teeth, “Do you want to try? If you try, you’ll understand.”
“No need,” White Tiger Great Demon King said with a look of resignation, “I am clearly the tiger, but why do I feel like I’m negotiating with a tiger for its hide? Is it too late for regrets?”
Tang San shrugged his shoulders, saying, “Of course it’s too late, you’ve already boarded the thief ship. Plus, shouldn’t you be happy the stronger I am? They say when the rabbit mourns, the fox grieves; you’re a tiger, what are you grieving about?”
White Tiger Great Demon King took a deep breath, “Just tell me, what do you actually want to do?”
Tang San smiled faintly and said, “Didn’t I just ask you? The Sea God’s Messenger can’t participate in the martial contest for marriage, so what about the Clan Leader of the Blue Golden Tree Tribe? The Little Tree Ancestor? Can they participate? I am also a member of the Spirit Clan, even a clan leader, so that doesn’t bury Little Beauty’s potential, right? Plus, I meet the rank 11 requirement.”
Hearing this, White Tiger Great Demon King then realized why he had been told the secret identity of Jin Miaolin.
Right! The Sea God’s Messenger won’t work, the biggest risk being that he isn’t part of Demon Monster Land, but Tang San, as the Clan Leader of the Blue Golden Tree Tribe, could.
That day, he had personally witnessed Tang San accepting the Emperor Sky Pillar’s blessing before his debriefing, and had felt the high-level life force emanating from him. Undoubtedly, this person was now the darling of the entire Ancestral Court. Not to mention among the Spirit Clan, even on the Monster Clan’s Tianyu Empire side, many emperors hoped to maintain a good relationship with him. After all, who wouldn’t need the nourishment of high-level life force? And now, protected by numerous Heavenly Spirit Emperors and having slain the Diamond Elf King after the awakening of the Tree Ancestor, no one dared to confront him directly; they could only try to foster good relations.
“You really exceed my expectations,” White Tiger Great Demon King observed Tang San, his eyes gradually showing a trace of admiration.
Tang San smiled and said, “I happened to obtain this identity by chance. Upon further thought, using this identity to participate in the martial competition for marriage couldn’t be more appropriate.”
“But the Blue Golden Tree Clan is not proficient in combat. When the time comes, are you just going to participate without using any of your Bloodline Brands? It won’t be easy to win,” said the White Tiger Great Demon King.
Tang San nodded and replied, “I understand, but I have already prepared for this. Rest assured, there will be ample justification. However, please don’t reveal this to Little Beauty when you see her; I’m afraid she might give us away.”
The White Tiger Great Demon King nodded, his sagacity enabling him to grasp Tang San’s intentions directly.
“What do you need me to cooperate with?” the White Tiger Great Demon King asked again.
Tang San said, “There should be an important meeting held in Ancestral Court soon regarding the Blue Golden Tree Clan. I suggested to the Rihchen Empire that the Blue Golden Tree Clan should remain neutral, letting the King level clansmen from our tribe head to the main cities to gather life force, aiding the races of each major city to develop. Just support me in this matter. Additionally, if I propose to participate in the marriage-through-martial competition and any Emperor opposes, please support me.”
“The Blue Golden Tree Clan remaining neutral? Will the Rihchen Empire agree?” asked the White Tiger Great Demon King with doubt.
“Rihchen Empire has no choice but to agree. Now that the Diamond Elf King is dead, the Monster Clan holds some upper hand. In such circumstances, with the Tree Ancestor reviving and me, the Little Tree Ancestor bringing high-level pure life force, do you think, as Emperors of the Monster Clan, they would sit and watch the Spirit Clan reap such benefits? Over time, wouldn’t the Monster Clan’s Emperors have less longevity and chances for promotion compared to those from the Spirit Clan? Therefore, Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox will definitely not allow such a situation to occur. It is best for me to remain neutral. In this way, our Blue Golden Tree Clan can also survive better.”
“Do you actually consider yourself a member of the Blue Golden Tree Clan? Why do I feel you are like a weasel paying New Year’s visit to a chicken—nothing good can come from this,” the White Tiger Great Demon King skeptically looked at Tang San. Although the plan seemed beneficial for the entire Demon Monster Land and advantageous for the Blue Golden Tree Clan, it sounded dubious coming from Tang San. After all, he is human. Since when has he ever been so benevolent towards the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan?
With an innocent face, Tang San replied, “Can I not have some trust? I am doing this for the Blue Golden Tree Clan! In my recent travels, I benefited from the Tree Ancestor, that’s why you feel I have improved. I’m doing this both as a repayment to the Tree Ancestor and to achieve multiple gains. Don’t forget, the Tree Ancestor is a part of the plane master; the will of the Tree Ancestor impacts the relationship between the plane and me. As an outsider aspiring to be Emperor, I must bribe the plane a little.”
Hearing this, the White Tiger Great Demon King suddenly realized, “You are indeed cunning! You are already safeguarding your interests ahead of time. You’re right, aiming to become an Emperor, you indeed face a much harder task than Little Beauty. I’m truly beginning to admire you now.”
Tang San thought to himself, if only you knew how many other gains I am making from this, you might not think so highly of me. I am now the accelerator of Demon Monster Land.
“For the Rihchen Empire, I have basically convinced the Heavenly Spirit Emperors. They certainly understand, with me showcasing this high-level life force, Tianyu Empire won’t just stand by. Although they might consider that I am neutral, they believe I still lean towards Rihchen Empire a bit. But in reality, I will treat both sides impartially, favoring you the most, at most.”

“Can you really wield the power of origin from the Tree Ancestor now?” asked the White Tiger Great Demon King.
Tang San nodded and responded, “To a certain extent, yes. So, for you Emperors, it really is advantageous. You can rest assured, I won’t blow my cover.”
The White Tiger Great Demon King took a deep breath and said, “I can handle what you’ve asked of me. Anyway, it’s not a difficult task. But you must be careful yourself. Do not expose your identity no matter what. Once your real identity is revealed, you won’t be able to leave Ancestral Court alive.”
Tang San smiled and replied, “Rest assured, my prestige within the Blue Golden Tree Clan is quite high now.”
