Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San Chapter 175: Blue-Class Redemption Member -Mei Gongzi

Chapter 175: Blue-Class Redemption Member – Mei Gongzi

“They did not pursue us. But they’re probably not dead,” Tang San whispered. Using the Mysterious Heaven Technique, he slightly altered his voice to sound more mature than his usual tone.

“Hmm.” Mei Gongzi nodded, then looked at him earnestly. “Shouldn’t you let go of my hand now?”

“Oh, umm…yes.” Tang San reluctantly released her hand. Mei Gongzi’s initially cold hand had warmed up a bit in his grasp.

“Who are you?” Mei Gongzi scrutinized him with an intense gaze.

Tang San’s face was covered with a mask, and they wore dark clothes.

“I…” Hesitating upon hearing her question, he longed to tell her, I am your husband from a previous life, and I will be in this life as well. But saying that would probably make him sound insane.

“You can call me Asura.”

Tang San intended to name his alias Sea God, after his godly title from a past life, but that seemed too extravagant. Asura, another divine title he once shared with his wife in a past life, felt more fitting.

“Asura?” Mei Gongzi paused, finding the name a bit strange.

“Are you human?” she asked.

“Yeah, yeah.” Tang San nodded.

“Thank you for saving me,” Mei Gongzi’s voice remained somewhat indifferent, as if the previous danger had nothing to do with her.

Such mental fortitude, Tang San thought to himself.

“No need to thank me,” he replied. In his mind, he added, I will always protect you.

“I must go now,” said Mei Gongzi, turning to leave.

“Where are you going now?” Tang San asked.

Mei Gongzi replied, “Back to my camp. My tent is still there.”

“Go back?” Tang San was startled. “Aren’t you afraid of those demons who are after you…”

Mei Gongzi silently shook her head. “If they didn’t dare to kill me, what else can they do? If they were competent, they wouldn’t need to fear someone like me with a human bloodline.”

A thought struck Tang San, and he suddenly realized something.

Throughout the entire attack, Mei Gongzi had remained calm and composed, even now. What did this imply? Did she have a contingency plan? Something to counter those who were after her, like Wang Yan’s men? Was he overthinking due to his concern for her?

But at that moment, when they were about to lay hands on Mei Gongzi, how could he possibly not save her?

Realizing all this, he didn’t ask further questions, only silently watching as Mei Gongzi gradually disappeared into the night.

Suddenly, she stopped, turned toward Tang San, and lifted her right hand, brushing back the long hair at her temples. A deep blue light suddenly shone on the back of her right hand.

Tang San’s pupils contracted instantly upon seeing that deep blue color.

“You can call me Mei Gongzi.”

Mei Gongzi waved at him, then turned and leaped up, disappearing into the forest in an instant.

Tang San stood still for a long time, unmoving.

She, she…

To someone who possessed visual abilities like he had, that patch of blue could not be clearer. It was unmistakably a rune he was highly familiar with and in fact possessed himself. However, the rune on his hand was orange.

Yes, that was the Redemption Society’s mark!

Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple. The Redemption Society’s members were divided into seven classes, and blue…represented the second level in the hierarchy of the entire Redemption Society!

Tang San clearly remembered that his master, the mayor, had once told him that in Kali City, the highest class wasn’t his Green Class, but the Blue Class. There were only two Blue-Class individuals there.

Tang San once thought one of them might be the god-tier powerhouse Si Ru, but later found out Si Ru was also Green-Class. He had naturally always been curious about the Blue-Class members.

Yet, he never imagined that the future wife he wanted to protect with all his heart was one of them.

She’s only in her teens! How could she be at the Blue class? When she showed me the Blue-Class Redemption bloodline imprint, she was trying to confirm my identity, whether I was a member of the Redemption Society.

Tang San chose not to reveal his mark because he didn’t want Mei Gongzi to see that he was at the orange class, as it would likely expose his identity. He hid his true self under the identity of Asura to more easily protect her in the future, do things that Tang San—and his friend, Sweeper Tang San—couldn’t do openly, and conceal his ability to use multiple Demonic God Transformations.

Tang San had previously thought that since she was also a human vassal, there might be a chance to bring her into the Redemption Society. When he had rescued Mei Gongzi earlier, he had considered revealing his affiliation with the Redemption Society to guide her into joining. But due to Mei Gongzi’s calm demeanor, Tang San had decided to leave matters be for now. Unexpectedly, not only was she part of the Redemption Society, but she was also among its top echelon.

This was clearly related to Mei Gongzi’s Peacock Transformation and her status within the Peacock Demon clan.

Tang San’s mind was in disarray, but he gradually calmed down after some time. Since Mei Gongzi was at the Blue class, and considering her attitude, it was clear that the likes of Wang Yan posed no threat to her.

No wonder those premonitions through the Discerning Eye of Heaven weren’t very strong—was it because Mei Gongzi could handle the situation herself?

He decided to return first and think about it later.

Just then, Tang San felt his heart skip a beat, and someone appeared beside him.

“Why did you do it?” a familiar voice asked.

Tang San turned to look at the mayor, his master, who had arrived beside him. This was his most significant source of confidence. If he couldn’t take Mei Gongzi away, there was likely no need to use even a bit of his divine consciousness—he was certain that his master was secretly following him.

Ever since he revealed his ability to simultaneously use the Chrono Croc Transformation and the Celestial Fox Transformation, it was indisputable that he held a highly esteemed position in his master’s eyes.

Suddenly, Tang San thought of a possibility and turned to Zhang Haoxuan. “Master, did you come with us this time to protect both us and her?”

“Hmm, quick response. But you haven’t answered my question yet,” Zhang Haoxuan said irritably.

Tang San gave an awkward smile, removed the mask from his face, and put it into his bag. “If I say it was love at first sight, would you believe me?”

After a moment of silence, Zhang Haoxuan tilted his head at him and said, “Oddly enough, I do. It doesn’t really make sense to me otherwise. Kid, you’re becoming more and more mysterious in my eyes. Everything about you can only be described as extraordinary.” He opened his hands as he spoke, revealing several crossbow bolts that glinted with a chilling light. Vissit novelbin(.)c.𝒐m for updates

“Except for those that hit those Peacock Demons, I’ve retrieved the rest for you. How you’ve combined this weapon with the Demonic God Transformation, particularly the Celestial Fox Transformation, is beyond my understanding.”

Zhang Haoxuan, who had been secretly protecting them, was almost dumbfounded when he saw Tang San injure five eighth-order Peacock Demons at once with his Godly Zhuge Crossbows.

Those were Peacock Demons! Even as a ninth-order, he wasn’t sure he could handle five great Peacock Demons at once without resorting to his lifebound weapon. But Tang San had done it with his small crossbow bolts.

Those Peacock Demons didn’t continue their pursuit due to the intimidation they felt as Zhang Haoxuan released his aura in the distance, as well as the cowardly nature of Mei Gongzi’s supposed elder brother, who was panicked after being injured.

“Blue Class, she’s actually a Blue-Class! Why, Master? Shouldn’t you have told me about it?” Tang San said with a wry smile.

Zhang Haoxuan laughed quite delightedly because this was the first time since he had known Tang San that he was seeing his “pupil” appear at a loss. Usually, Tang San seemed to have everything under control, and he always pulled something surprising out of his sleeve.
