Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

Her efforts and perseverance had gradually changed their purpose; now, she was striving more to keep up with his pace. When he needed it, she could truly stand by his side and support him.

Since Tang San left, Pretty Girl found that her cultivation and enhancement speed of divine consciousness had not decreased but instead increased. Every day, she could receive feedback from the Asura God's Sword, refining her divine consciousness. With the super divine weapon Asura God's Sword stationed within her sea of divine consciousness, her divine consciousness grew daily, which for others from the Monsters would be the most difficult ability to cultivate, yet for her, it was so straightforward, even effortless.

The core of the bloodline power she possessed was still the spatial attribute. The enhancement of the spatial attribute first required comprehension, and the strength of her divine consciousness greatly improved her comprehension ability, which made her overall progress speed incredibly fast.

At the same time, she did not neglect the cultivation of the White Tiger Transformation and Undying Mutation. How to fuse these three major bloodlines into one was the biggest issue she was really facing now, especially the fusion of Undying Mutation and Peacock Transformation. Sky King, a trait even the Undying Great Demon Emperor would admire. How to truly master Sky King was what Pretty Girl needed to continue to perceive deeply.

In this regard, Tang San did not give her advice; he merely told her that to truly possess such a powerful ability, she needed to comprehend it herself. Only in this way could this super bloodline truly form. When she became an Emperor, that was the opportunity for these two major bloodlines to truly merge. By then, what she could achieve would not just be Great Peacock Demon, but the Emperor of the Sky, an unprecedented presence in Demon Monster Land that could dominate the skies.

Since advancing to God Rank, Tang San rarely provided her with specific guidance, only pointing out the direction forward, so her cultivation wouldn't be lost. Moreover, he enhanced her divine consciousness through the Asura God's Sword, allowing her to better comprehend.

Tang San had left, and her heart had completely calmed down. Over the recent days of cultivation, she could feel herself making some progress every day. It wasn't in one specific area, but all-around. This feeling was very satisfying to her; she knew that all she needed for her future promotion was time.

In the blink of an eye, Tang San had already been gone for seven days.

The first two or three days were fine, but after more than five days, Pretty Girl began to find that she was missing him more and more. Missing him was a special feeling, wonderful yet binding. She even felt that her cultivation effectiveness in the last few days was not as good as the previous days.

But of course, she wouldn't just summon him back because she missed him. Tang San was doing the most important thing right now, which was crucial for all humanity, and without extremely special circumstances, she definitely would not interfere with him.

"Little Beauty." As Pretty Girl was waking up from meditation and almost instantaneously the face of someone appeared in her mind, a call suddenly came through her divine consciousness. Discover stories with My Virtual Library Empire

It wasn't the voice of that someone, but from the princess.

Pretty Girl gracefully stood up and naturally took a step forward; surrounded by a faint silver light, the next moment, she was already in front of the princess.

Feeling the extremely weak spatial fluctuation around her, the princess couldn't help but sincerely admire, "Your control over space, I feel, has almost surpassed mine. It seems like the power of space has completely merged with you."

Pretty Girl smiled slightly and said, "Mom, don't be modest. When you achieved Great Demon King, I didn't even know where I was. How can I compare with you! However, I will definitely work hard to keep up with your footsteps."

Princess Luo Qingzhu smiled indulgently. Ever since her husband was resurrected, her mood had been improving and she was increasingly accepting Pretty Girl as her goddaughter. Now, she even cared more about her than her own biological children. After all, who could blame her when this goddaughter, who also shared her bloodline, was so outstanding? Her own children hadn't even broken through to Rank 10, yet look at Pretty Girl, already at rank 11, and her advancement speed showed no signs of slowing down. She was destined to become an Emperor!

"The Ancestral Court has just sent news, and I think it's important to inform you right now so you can be prepared," the princess said earnestly.

Pretty Girl's heart tensed, "Is it because of the last incident involving the Sky-breaking City Lord from Jin Anguo?"

The princess nodded and said, "It is related. The news from the Ancestral Court is that you have now officially become the Main City Master of Jiali City. As the Main City Master, you need to consider the issue of offspring to ensure the stability of the main city. Hence, they are asking about your decision regarding a spouse and expect a clear response."

Pretty Girl frowned slightly and said, "How should I respond? I can only tell them I have none. Does the Ancestral Court really need to interfere so much, can't they just let me be at peace for a few days?"

The princess responded calmly, "The Ancestral Court uses all the ancestral teachings and rules, all based on propriety. Even the White Tiger Great Demon Emperor cannot speak for you in this matter. That's why I am telling you to be prepared. You should know that the Ancestral Court will continue to focus on this matter. The previous visit from the Sky-breaking City Lord to propose marriage was a test, and probably the scenario they most hoped for. According to your father, the goal of the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox is simple, using this to ally with the Sky-breaking Great Demon Emperor to balance the internal relations of the Tianyu Empire. After all, with the fall of the Crystal Great Demon Emperor and the Phoenix Demon Clan having two emperors, and the Undying Great Demon Emperor being the strongest, they clearly have the greatest power. Since the Sky-breaking Great Demon Emperor is neutral and our Peacock Demon Clan is at odds with the Phoenix Demon Clan, allying would surely be best. The Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox has done quite a few things against us, preventing you from taking office and harming human settlements, which are all grounds for enmity. If we can use the marriage proposal from the Sky-breaking Great Demon Emperor's side to make you a marriage prospect for the Behemoth giant beast lineage, then these issues can be more perfectly resolved, and also pull you into the fray. From their repeated inquiries, it's clear that the Ancestral Court wants you to make a stance. Your stance on resolving the issue of Human Bloodline will decide how quickly they'll push you to become an Emperor. After all, you are the most likely candidate."

Pretty Girl could not help but defiantly say, "I just won't make a stance, what can he do to me?"

The princess stroked her long hair and said, "This isn't the time to be stubborn. If you don't take a stance, they will force you to take one. They will suppress you with the grand justice of the Ancestral Court. We can refuse this time, saying you are still young, but I'm afraid it won't be long before new pressures arise. So I say, you need to be prepared."

Pretty Girl nodded and said, "Thanks, Mom, I understand. Just like Dad said before, when the soldiers come we block them, when the water comes we dam it. I don't believe they can force me into marriage, can they?" She spoke confidently now. If nothing else, she had the support of at least three emperors behind her. Of course, unless it was crucial, this was not to be revealed. Otherwise, it would become a clear target and would definitely attract the envy of other emperors, making her ascent to emperor even more difficult.

"So, should I reject them? In your name?" the princess asked.

Pretty Girl replied, "Yes. Let's see what tricks they come up with next."

The princess said, "You should also inform Tang San about this, so he can be prepared too. I expect the Ancestral Court's next move will be swift."

"Hmm, okay." The princess didn't know Tang San had already left on a long journey. This news was known by only a very few people.

Pretty Girl agreed, but she didn't plan to tell Tang San just yet, so as not to disturb his perceptions while away. For her beloved, her heart not only held love and trust but also support.
