Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San
Chapter 1141 - 1138: Passing the Barrier

"The Undying Your Majesty?" Tang San said in surprise.

Yes, the figure that appeared in the center of the hall was none other than the Undying Great Demon Emperor—the Phoenix Lord of the Eternal Heaven Burning generation.

The Undying Great Demon Emperor looked at Tang San sternly and said, "You've already passed Brother White Tiger's trial; next, you will have to pass mine. Don't be confused, there are some things I can tell you now. Little Beauty has recognized me as her honorary grandfather, making her my granddaughter. As a grandfather, it's only right for me to test whether her chosen husband is worthy."

Tang San was already aware of the relationship between the Undying Great Demon Emperor and Pretty Girl, and this revelation clearly signaled that the Phoenix Demon Clan and the Peacock Demon Clan were no longer adversaries. It was evident that he was standing in support of Tang San and Pretty Girl.

The timing of this revelation was highly strategic, as Tang San was currently disguised as Jin Miaolin.

"I understand. Greetings, Grandfather," Tang San, ever quick-witted, bowed slightly in salute.

The Undying Great Demon Emperor's face finally showed a faint smile. "Even though you call me grandfather, you'll still need to get through this trial. We'll change the method. You will attack me three times; nothing in this hall shall be damaged. I'll lower my cultivation base to rank 11; as long as you can force me to take one step back, you'll have passed the trial."

Lowering to rank 11? This Undying Great Demon Emperor clearly had immense confidence in himself.

The White Tiger Great Demon Emperor said nothing, but stood to the side with a grin, watching the two prepare for the trial.

Tang San nodded and said, "Alright!"

Ensuring that nothing in the hall would be damaged meant that his attacks must remain contained. Tang San stepped forward slowly, then extended a palm toward the Undying Great Demon Emperor.

At first glance, his palm strike seemed entirely unremarkable; even during execution, no energy could be sensed. But within the palm, it had already transformed into an orange-gold hue, with the Divine Energy Field completely condensed into his hand. As his strike approached the Undying Great Demon Emperor, Tang San's palm had already become translucent, resembling a luminous orange crystal.

The Undying Great Demon Emperor didn't even raise his hand but simply watched him with a smile.

Just as Tang San's palm was about to land on the chest of the Undying Great Demon Emperor, the divine power within his hand erupted upon contact. Once it struck his body, it would be up to him to neutralize the energy and ensure it didn't spread outside the hall.

However, at that very moment, Tang San suddenly felt his hand fall into emptiness; the area of the Undying Great Demon Emperor's chest suddenly turned illusory, and the divine energy from Tang San's strike passed through him instantly.

This is bad! Tang San's heart trembled. The divine energy he released had already passed through the Undying Great Demon Emperor's body and was about to explode behind him.

The White Tiger Great Demon Emperor couldn't help but wince at the scene. This crafty old man was truly devious!

But in the next moment, both emperors' expressions shifted dramatically.

Tang San's right hand, from which he had launched the strike, suddenly made an inward scooping motion, and a strange sight followed. The divine energy, which had already erupted and was about to impact the wall behind, was instantly retracted, absorbed back into his palm, and then enveloped the entirety of the Undying Great Demon Emperor's body from behind.

Intense flames surged upward! The scorching red flames carried an incomparably high temperature, forcing Tang San to stumble backward as his divine energy was instantly burned away.

"This isn't rank 11 power, Your Majesty…" Tang San said with a smile despite retreating in instability.

The Undying Great Demon Emperor couldn't help but shake his head helplessly and said, "It seems I underestimated you, boy. Such delicate mastery over power and control—if I were at the same Great Demon King Realm, I might not be able to match you."

"It's all thanks to Your Majesty's generosity," Tang San replied cheerfully. "May I proceed to the bridal chamber now?"

The Undying Great Demon Emperor nodded gently with a faint smile.

Tang San took a deep breath and walked toward the inner chamber.

The two emperors exchanged a glance and smiled, neither choosing to follow him.

Everyone possessed divine consciousness, so there was no need for a guide; Tang San could naturally find Pretty Girl's location.

As he progressed, Tang San quickly reached the inner chamber. Two wide doors stood open, and the Peacock Princess was waiting there in formal attire. Seeing him arrive, she beckoned and said with a light laugh, "Congratulations."

"Thank you," Tang San replied with a slight bow in acknowledgment.

Tang San entered the room, which was decorated in an incredibly jubilant and luxurious manner. Su Qin was wearing a pale green dress, her natural beauty further accentuated by its elegance. However, her eyes were slightly red, as if she had been crying.

To Tang San's surprise, there was another person present, and it was none other than Xiao He.

Xiao He stood beside Su Qin, softly comforting her.

Indeed, after all these years of being Pretty Girl's father, how could he not attend his daughter's wedding?

"Prime Minister!" Tang San first greeted Xiao He before approaching Su Qin, his gaze shifting past her towards the figure behind.

Pretty Girl was dressed in a silver-white gown, with a silver veil adorning her head. Her entire being seemed to radiate a faint, silver-hued glow. As if sensing his arrival, her delicate frame trembled slightly.

"Aunt!" Tang San called softly.

"Mm." Su Qin nodded lightly and smiled warmly, "I'm fine; just with my daughter getting married, how could I not feel a little unwilling to part? The kindness and love you've shown Little Beauty, I've seen it all and remembered it deeply. There's no need for me to say more—I simply wish you both eternal harmony and safety."

"Thank you, Mother," Tang San answered softly.

After all, she was Pretty Girl's mother in this life, deserving of Tang San's reverent acknowledgment. Without her, he might never have reunited with the love of his Previous World.

Hearing him address her as "Mother," Su Qin's smile grew even brighter. Yet, the tears in her eyes overflowed, quickly streaming down her face.

She had suffered so much and sacrificed immensely for Pretty Girl. In this moment, she felt it had all been worthwhile, her heart filled with overwhelming happiness.

Tang San turned his gaze to Xiao He, who waved him off and said, "You don't need to call me that. I'm unworthy. The truth is, seeing you both finally united as lovers is enough for me. I'll remain here for the wedding and won't attend later ceremonies. My heartfelt congratulations to you both."

Pretty Girl, having stepped down from her bed, came to Tang San's side, and together they performed a deep bow to Xiao He.

Xiao He wanted to step aside, but Su Qin pulled him back. "You must accept their bow. Without you, my mother-daughter pair would have long since…"

Before finishing her sentence, Su Qin seemed to sense something and abruptly turned to look at the doorway.

A figure stood silently, face already streaked with tears, yet not daring to step inside.

Tang San, of course, had also sensed his arrival long ago, yet chose not to say anything.

The Crystal Phoenix Great Demon Emperor stood with a complex expression, his gaze fixed on the scene inside. He hadn't recognized Xiao He as the Peacock Demon King nor paid attention to him.

However, when looking at the timelessly beautiful and graceful Su Qin, he couldn't help but feel an overwhelming mix of emotions.

Meeting her gaze, tears streamed down the Crystal Phoenix Great Demon Emperor's cheeks.

Su Qin turned her head away but did not scold him harshly this time. After all, today was her daughter's wedding day.

Tang San gently nudged Pretty Girl beside him. Pretty Girl's slender frame trembled slightly as she took a deep breath, calmed herself, and walked toward the doorway.

Tang San glanced at Su Qin, while Pretty Girl sneaked looks at her mother's reaction. Su Qin was quietly crying, choosing not to say anything. After all, that man was still her daughter's biological father.

Pretty Girl finally reached the Crystal Phoenix Great Demon Emperor and softly said, "You're here. Please come in."
