Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

The bloodline level of the Light Tiger was simply not something the Dark Crow could compare with, and the Dark Crow was more adept at reconnaissance and assassinations. In a frontal battle, not even three Dark Crow Monster Kings might match up to the Light Tiger, let alone an opponent whose Cultivation was so formidable.

"Enough!" Just then, an ancient voice rang out. This voice seemed to emanate from all directions, its faint pressure causing both darkness and light to retract.

"The orders of the Ancestral Court must not be defied, let Little Beauty go with them. It will be fine," echoed the aged voice, carrying a trace of ethereal vagueness.

Hearing this voice, even Li Si, the Light Tiger King, with his unruly nature, revealed a look of respect, "Yes."

With such commotion stirred up in the academy, Pretty Girl naturally heard it. Moreover, she had seen some changes in the high skies earlier and understood that something major must have happened in the city. It was definitely related to the previous auction.

Pretty Girl slowly walked out of the teaching building and approached the Dark Crow Monster King. Without even glancing at Wang Yan, she nodded at the Dark Crow Monster King and said, "Let\'s go."

The Light Tiger King, Li Si, watched the Dark Crow Monster King with a cold gaze, "If you harm any student of my academy, hmph!"

All higher academies within the Monster Race have an exalted status, and not even the City Lord can directly order the academy to do anything that violates its rules. Higher academies are under the direct jurisdiction of the Ancestral Court, so, in a sense, the academy principals are directly appointed by the Ancestral Court.

The Dark Crow Monster King didn\'t say anything and simply turned to leave. Just as the Light Tiger King, Li Si, disliked him, Dai Yanning also disliked this being who exuded an aura of light.

Pretty Girl left with Wang Yan and the Dark Crow Monster King. In the woods beside the main teaching building, a figure quietly emerged, watching the direction they left with furrowed brows, her broom, unbeknownst to her, had already turned into powder.

Tang San hadn\'t left; he stayed at the Jiali Academy even after he and Pretty Girl parted ways.

The sense of impending crisis brought by the Heavenly Eye weighed heavier as the gloom over Jiali City grew intense, pressing down on him more and more - he always had a bad premonition looming in his heart. How could he possibly leave Pretty Girl\'s side easily under such circumstances?

And indeed, when the Dark Crow Monster King and Wang Yan arrived, he had felt a foreboding. As expected, Pretty Girl was taken away.

Only when it came to matters involving Pretty Girl, did Tang San find his mind easily disturbed. Thus, he especially reminded himself to remain calm.

Li Si, the Light Tiger King and deputy principal of Jiali Academy whom Tang San had just met, showed a level of strength that exceeded his expectations. And that hidden ancient voice was even more powerful, probably belonging to a being at the Great Demon King Level. Truly, the academy was a place where dragons hid and tigers crouched!

Tang San knew that if not for his divine consciousness concealment and the Luck Enhancement from the Heavenly Fox Transformation, he would have long been discovered by these powerhouses within the academy. So, his everyday caution was not in vain, and he would need to be even more careful.

Watching the direction in which Pretty Girl had left, Tang San took a deep breath. Just then, two dazzling streaks of light shot across the sky toward the Jiali mountain range, catching his attention.

Both flowing lights were radiant and possessed immense pressure, terrorizingly magnificent, heading straight into the depths of the Jiali mountain range.

That was...

From the conversation between the Dark Crow Monster King and the others, along with what Pretty Girl had told him about the threats from the Ancestral Court before their hunt of the Flash Leopard King, Tang San vaguely guessed that it might be the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor who had taken action.

Compared to his past life, the level of these great Demon Emperors should be the equivalent of a rank 12 powerhouse in this world, even on par with the level 1 god rank of the Divine Realm from his previous life. The only difference is that they don\'t have a Position of God Scolding, so they might be slightly weaker. But for Demon Monster Land and even the entire Falan Planet, they stand at the very peak.

The Peacock Demon King is rank 11, while the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor is rank 12. Are they really about to fight each other?

Tang San was indifferent to the fate of these two, what concerned him was whether Pretty Girl, who had been taken, would be alright!

After a moment\'s thought, Tang San swiftly rose into the air, following the direction in which the Dark Crow Demon King and Pretty Girl had left.

Upon leaving Jiali Academy, the Dark Crow Demon King enveloped itself in a thick black mist, lifting up the bodies of Pretty Girl and Wang Yan and soared into the sky, heading straight for the City Lord Manor.

Just then, the Dark Crow Demon King felt a sudden prickling sensation on his back as if something had set its sights on him, and deep within, he sensed an incredibly strong threat.

Subconsciously, it controlled the dark clouds, elevating its vigilance to the utmost. Could it be the Light Tiger King, Li Si, who wanted to attack him after leaving Jiali Academy?

He was somewhat aware of Li Si\'s situation; after all, the stir he had caused within the Tiger Clan was too great, a very infamous scandal of theirs. This Li Si was a fellow who feared neither heaven nor earth.

And at this moment, Pretty Girl by his side suddenly made her move; without any warning, her body burst forth with a silver radiance, and peacock feathers on her back instantly erupted, turning into beams of silver light, and closed in on Dai Yanning at close range.

Dai Yanning could never have imagined that this seemingly delicate girl, only thirteen or fourteen years old, would launch an attack on him at such a time. This was absolutely unimaginable to him.

Because of Wang Yan, it had come to look down upon these direct descendants of the Peacock Demon Clan. If even a direct descendant like Wang Yan was like this, what more could it expect from a young girl with human bloodline? Yet it was this very young girl who suddenly lashed out and ambushed him.

Pretty Girl\'s sneak attack was sudden and at close quarters, so even a Demon King of God Level would be too late to dodge, let alone anyone else.

But a God Level is a God Level after all. Dai Yanning\'s body turned ethereal in an instant. As the silver light pierced his body, it was like entering a patch of black fog. The dense fog enveloped him and the spatial power seemed to be glued together, unable to unravel. However, the black fog that enshrouded Pretty Girl and Wang Yan had naturally thinned out a lot.

In the blink of an eye, Pretty Girl\'s figure flashed, and with a spatial shift, she was dozens of meters away. The peacock feathers on her back spread out into wings and flapped, carrying her small frame away like lightning.

"Damn it!" Rage flickered in Dai Yanning\'s eyes as he lifted his right hand, reaching towards Pretty Girl\'s direction. Suddenly, out of thin air, a large hand formed by black mist, with a powerful suction force, reached out towards Pretty Girl.

It was at this moment a vine suddenly swept in silently, winding around Pretty Girl\'s slender waist, and with a fierce pull, it changed her direction, sending her flying off in another direction.

Simultaneously, several bolts with piercing whistles shot through the air. These bolts shone with a blinding silver light, with a somewhat ethereal flicker in the air. The target was not Dai Yanning, but Wang Yan beside him.

Attacking the Demon King directly would likely render these bolts ineffective, but if it were Wang Yan, that was a different story.

Under the enhancement of spatial power, the bolts arrived in the blink of an eye. Dai Yanning\'s black mist hand, originally transformed back to its original form to continue the chase, had to halt upon sensing the direction of the incoming bolts. The black fog connected to its original position flashed and repositioned itself in front of Wang Yan.
