Chapter 615: Meeting the Peacock Great Demon King Again

Tang San said, "It's alright. My divine consciousness was somewhat affected, but there were also some benefits. Overall, it was worth it."

"That's good. Let's go." This time, Mei Gongzi was prepared. She mobilized more spatial power, and with a flash of silver light, she teleported Tang San directly to her residence in the ancestral house of the Peacock Demon clan.

This was Tang San's first time in Mei Gongzi's quarters. It was about eighty square meters, with the living room and bedroom connected. From the window, he could tell that the building was located rather high, seemingly on a mountaintop. Mei Gongzi's room was also high up within the building, allowing a view of the surroundings. The overall structure resembled a castle.

The room was elegant and clean, decorated mainly in light blue. Although it wasn't luxurious, it was very cozy, and gave off that faint fragrance unique to her, which made Tang San feel captivated.

Mei Gongzi said softly, "Wait here for a moment. I'll go find my father." With that, she teleported away again.

One had to admit, the Peacock Transformation was indeed very convenient for this.

Tang San walked to the window and looked outside. Indeed, it seemed to be a castle. Because of the high elevation, the view outside allowed a clear sight of Kali City, sprawling below.

From the positioning, this castle seemed to be on the northern side of Kali City, facing south. Behind it were mountains, and in front of it was the city. The city lord was in a very good position, Tang San had to admit.

The owner of this castle, the clan leader of the Peacock Demon clan, could constantly watch over his domain from within the castle. This was power—controlling the lives of others and holding immense wealth.

It seemed that any world with life was like this. Wasn't it the same in his previous world?

Before becoming a God King, he fought against those in power in his previous life. So much time had passed that Tang San had almost begun to forget what his old adversaries were like.

Compared to his growth in his previous life, this life was more difficult. In both cases, he had to start everything from scratch, but the opponents on this plane were comparatively more powerful. In fact, his current cultivation would have safely placed him close to the very top of the Douluo Continent, at least before it evolved into a divine realm. Now that it

had

evolved, it was definitely on the level of this Daemon Continent.

Fortunately, he had already achieved an important milestone—with his current cultivation, the only beings on this plane that could truly threaten his and Mei Gongzi's lives were those at the absolute top, so he felt more at ease. The biggest challenge ahead was how to help Mei Gongzi establish herself in Kali City and truly become its ruler. Only by achieving this could they move further. Then, he would have to deal with the matter of his own cultivation

While Mei Gongzi's ascension to god level would be challenging, it shouldn't be too problematic since she now had the sword intent of the Asura Sword protecting her, and he himself would be watching over her. No, the biggest issue was his own ascension. Even now, he had no confidence in it. Now that he had acquired the transcendent bloodline, his energy could not be compressed anymore, and his cultivation slowly increased naturally. In other words, when the time came, he couldn't avoid the breakthrough. All he could do was prepare for it.

However, he didn't know how much pressure he would face from this plane during his breakthrough. Although he had decided where to attempt the breakthrough, he still had no confidence. If he could successfully ascend, the qualitative change would make him fearless. Even when facing an Emperor, he would have some means of self-protection.

Tang San was silently thinking about this when he sensed a change and turned around. He saw that Mei Gongzi and the Peacock Great Demon King had teleported in.

The Peacock Great Demon King was dressed in luxurious robes and had a cold expression on his face. When he saw Tang San, a wave of divine consciousness immediately fell upon Tang San, scanning him.

Tang San's expression remained unchanged. With a smile, he bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, City Lord. I am Tang San."

The Peacock Great Demon King's expression changed, reflecting his inner shock. When his divine consciousness scanned Tang San, he felt as if he was looking at a furnace, a huge furnace, with blazing bloodline power that made him seem like a small sun.

Bloodline power was the foundation of the demon and nymph races; this was especially true for the demons, who couldn’t alter their bloodlines as readily as nymphs could. The strength of the bloodline they were born with determined their heritage and power. But the power of the bloodline Tang San possessed was simply unheard of. The city lord was a peak Great Demon King, yet even his bloodline didn't have this kind of blazing intensity. What level of bloodline was this?

Before coming, Mei Gongzi had already told him that she knew the Sea God's emissary, and the Sea God had come to help last time because he acknowledged her. So, she still hoped to undergo her tribulation at the Endless Blue Sea, where interference would be minimal.

Seeing Tang San now, the Peacock Great Demon King could barely conceal his inner shock.

The young man in front of him possessed the strongest bloodline he had ever encountered, even though his cultivation level seemed not to have reached the Demon King level. But such a bloodline...

"Tang San, right? Please have a seat." The Peacock Great Demon King gestured for Tang San to sit.

As they sat on the living room sofa, the Peacock Great Demon King's divine consciousness remained focused on Tang San. Throughout, the sun-like fluctuations of Tang San's bloodline power continuously shocked him.

Could such an existence really be among the sea clans?

"Tang San, you say you are the Sea God's emissary. Do you have any proof?" the Peacock Great Demon King asked directly. Despite the sheer power of Tang San's bloodline, which left little room for doubt regarding his status, he still needed further verification.

"Yes. I represent the Sea God's will." As he spoke, a faint golden light flashed in Tang San's eyes, and a golden trident symbol appeared on his forehead.

Tang San's entire body seemed to brighten when that symbol appeared, and a fairly weak but clearly discernible pressure fell upon the Peacock Great Demon King.

The Peacock Great Demon King's pupils contracted. He could immediately recognize the aura. When the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor came, it was this same aura that descended and eventually scared him off. Otherwise, although the Peacock Great Demon King could have inflicted more severe injuries on the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor, he himself might have perished.

"Where is the Sea God now?" he asked, in a clearly softer voice.

"His Majesty is in seclusion in the depths of the Endless Blue Sea. As the ruler of the Endless Blue Sea, he cannot easily leave it."

"Previously, our clan faced a catastrophe. We survived thanks to His Majesty's intervention. If possible, could you arrange for me to meet him to express our gratitude?"

Tang San shook his head. "I'm afraid that's impossible for now. His Majesty's periods of seclusion are very long, and I don't know when he will come out. However, His Majesty has said that as long as Mei Gongzi is in charge of Kali City in the future, the countless sea clans of the Endless Blue Sea will be allies of Kali City."

Upon hearing this, the Peacock Great Demon King raised an eyebrow in suspicion. "Why would my daughter receive such care from His Majesty?"

"When Mei Gongzi was young, she unintentionally helped His Majesty with a small matter. His Majesty has always been very concerned about her growth. That's why he intervened when the Peacock Demon clan was in trouble. The City Lord can rest assured that our sea clans have no ambitions for the land and no intention of clashing with the Ancestral Court. But if we’re just talking about Kali City, we are willing to be... allies."

The Peacock Great Demon King's heart stirred. "Could we trade in the future?"
