Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San Chapter 208: The Clan Has No Emperor-The Emperor Has No City

Chapter 208: The Clan Has No Emperor, The Emperor Has No City

Zhang Haoxuan was unfamiliar with the origin of this blood, but given that four god-level powerhouses personally guarded it, its value was undoubtedly immense.

With utmost respect, the demon of the Red Fox tribe first bowed deeply to the blood that shimmered with a rainbow luster. She said reverently, “This blood comes from one of the supreme powerhouses of the demon races, the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor. We are extremely fortunate to have it appear in our auction. The tales of the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor are well-known, so I need not elaborate further. This blood is not just ordinary blood; it contains a drop of the Demon Emperor’s blood essence, making it truly priceless. It’s not actually something that comes from our Kali City store, but actually something sent to us from our ancestral home, just for this grand auction.”

The bloodline of the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor!

Tang San had indeed come across legends of the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor in texts and had heard about them from teachers at the Redemption Society. This being was an absolute legend among the demon races of the Empyrean Dominion.

The Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor was also known as the Elemental Demon Emperor. In terms of combat strength alone, this entity once ranked fifth among all in the Ancestral Court, including among the nymphs of the Solstice Empire—a true powerhouse among powerhouses.

Unfortunately, the Seven-Colored Deer was a rather special case in that it was a unique being of its race—or a Solitary, as they were otherwise known. A Solitary was the only being of its bloodline, an unprecedented existence.

Beings who qualified for the “Solitary” term were usually the result of mutations of powerful species, and these mutations were rather rare. Moreover, not all such mutations were strong; most of these beings were weak and faded into obscurity. However, when the mutation did have positive effects, it usually produced an absolutely formidable being.

The Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor was precisely one such formidable being, a legendary representative of the Solitaries.

Among the various demon races of the Empyrean Dominion, the Deer clan was not considered strong; if anything, it was rather weak in terms of combat power. That was until the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor appeared.

Originally, the bloodline of this Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor was in fact the bloodline Tang San had absorbed back in the day—the bloodline of the Aetherhorn Deer. However, it possessed supreme talent and intelligence far beyond its already intelligent peers. Utilizing the Discerning Heart’s Gaze, it gradually found its path, evolving and allowing its bloodline to mutate in the ocean of elements. Eventually, it became a powerful being capable of controlling the seven elements of water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, and space. And with that, it ascended to the throne of Demon Emperor.

With its ascension to the Demon Emperor, all Deer Demon clans, especially the Aetherhorn Deers, saw their status in the Empyrean Dominion rise significantly. The Aetherhorn Deers thus became as renowned as the royal clan, the Golden Deer clan.

Regrettably, as the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor had a unique mutation, even its offspring could not inherit its powerful bloodline. Thus, the bloodline of the Rainbow Deer ended with it.

The Falan Planet, as Tang San had concluded, was not a true divine realm. Although it possessed vast energy and resources, it lacked the immortal aura of a divine realm. Therefore, even the mightiest of Demon Emperors ultimately faced the end of their lifespan. Moreover, there was no true peace between the Empyrean Dominion and the Solstice Empire, and battles were frequent.

With its overwhelming strength, the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor once led the Empyrean Dominion to overpower the Solstice Empire. However, it suffered grave injuries in a significant battle. As a Solitary with no one to carry on its bloodline, and due to being simply too powerful, it lacked supporters in the Ancestral Court. Eventually, it fell, becoming the most legendary history of all Deer Demon lineages.

The legend of the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor had always been the most sacred among the Deer Demon lineage. They believed that one day, a new Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor would emerge, and the nobility of the Aetherhorn Deer lineage would be proven once more. Unfortunately, history had only seen one Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor thus far.

For this reason, this final main auction item was particularly precious. It was not just the bloodline of a Demon Emperor, but also, in a sense, the heritage of a legend. For the Deer Demon lineage, nothing could be of greater importance.

Why had this blood been brought to Kali City for auction? There was a deeper meaning to it, related to the fact that Kali City was near the largest gathering area of the Deer Demons.

Without the presence of the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor, the weaker Deer Demon lineage naturally couldn’t enter the core of the Empyrean Dominion. The Golden Deers, as well as the Aetherhorn Deers, all lived near Kali City.

The Deer Demons’ combat strength was not anything special. However, they did have something special about them, namely that they were among the few demon races skilled in management and administration. In other words… they were wealthy, and they brought others wealth as well!

The Deer clans had good relations with the Peacock Demons and were protected by the Demon King of the Peacock Clan. Although Kali City was located on the frontier, its wealth was very much in line with that of other major cities, and a lot of this wealth could be credited to the Deer Demon lineage.

The Ancestral Court brought the blood of the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor for auction with a clear objective: to earn a substantial fortune from the Deer Demons. And this was an open scheme that the Deer clans could not refuse.

Even though it was well known that acquiring the bloodline of the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor would not guarantee inheriting power, there was at least a slim chance. The Deer Demon clans were simply too eager for the emergence of a second Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor. Therefore, they were determined to secure this auction item.

Moreover, the Deer Demons were not united. Both the Golden Deer Demons and the Aetherhorn Deer Demons were strong and wealthy, and naturally, both hoped this blood could at least produce a Demon King in their lineage. While the Aetherhorn Deer Demon was the most likely, the Golden Deer Demon, being royal, also had a chance of evolution. There were even legends that the original Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor was a hybrid of the Golden Deer Demon and the Aetherhorn Deer Demon, and that was actually what had led to its later evolution.

The auction began and almost instantly became a fierce bidding war, soaring the price quickly.

In the most prominent private room of Kali City’s Great Beast Arena, a man sat in the main seat. His appearance was not particularly handsome, just ordinary, and he was not particularly tall or short either. In fact, he looked like an average human male, especially compared to the stunningly handsome men surrounding him.

What truly set him apart from them, however, was his unique aura. His entire being seemed to exist between illusion and reality, giving off an unreal feeling.

As the auction outside began and the price instantly shot up, the man’s brow furrowed in concern.

If Tang San were here, he would have immediately noticed that the person sitting closest to this man was the one who haunted his dreams.

Mei Gongzi appeared very calm and her head was slightly dropped in meditation, as if everything outside was completely unrelated to her.

Wang Yan sat on the other side, occasionally glancing at Mei Gongzi with a complicated look in his eyes. However, he did not even dare to breathe out of line.

After all, the ordinary man in the main seat was none other than the Lord of Kali City and the leader of the Peacock Demon clan, the Peacock Great Demon King. VIssịT n0(v)eL/b(i)(n).𝘤𝑜𝓂 for the best novel reading experience

“Is the Ancestral Court envious of Kali City’s prosperity? To do this to me, it’s like pulling the rug out from under my feet,” the Peacock Great Demon King said, his voice tinged with anger.

The flourishing development of Kali City couldn’t be separated from the efforts of the Deer Demon clans. The city had grown increasingly prosperous over the years. Thus, the decision to auction the blood of the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor came like a thunderbolt out of blue sky.

However, this decision clearly reflected the will of the Demon Emperors of the Ancestral Court. Even he had no power to stop it. The ones who escorted the blood of the Rainbow Deer Demon Emperor were two Demon Kings of the same order as him, who were obviously there not only to protect the blood but also to observe him.

Sensing the Peacock Great Demon King’s anger, no one around dared to speak.

He narrowed his eyes, seemingly deep in thought for a few moments, and then suddenly turned his gaze to Mei Gongzi. “Little Mei, what do you think?”

He did not seem to regard his daughter as a human, hybrid, halfblood, or anything else other than his daughter. His gaze softened noticeably when he looked at her.

Mei Gongzi raised her head, looking at the Peacock Great Demon King. “Our clan has a city but no emperor. Another clan might have a new emperor…but no city.”
