Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 817 - 816: Messenger of the Ancestral Court
Pretty Girl said, "Everything is normal over there; we should continue secretly immigrating. Only overseas can humans have space to survive on their own, at least free from enslavement."
The princess sighed softly and said, "You must be careful on your own, don’t get too involved. Let Tang San handle it. After all, you are supposed to strive for the title of Emperor in the future. Only when you reattain the title of Great Peacock Demon, our clan and Jiali City can truly stabilize. Your father has come back now, and we will try our best to manage the affairs of Jiali City. Your most important task is to work hard to improve your cultivation base. I heard from your father that you have already become a Great Demon King in a short period of time. But the road ahead is still tough, and you cannot ignore the follow-up just because the initial progress was smooth. Historically, the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan have had no idea how many Great Demon Kings, but very few truly become Emperors, which shows how difficult that critical step is. Your cultivation base improved too quickly, you must build up a strong foundation. The ancestor, the Great Peacock Demon, once said that to become an Emperor, it is not only the cultivation base that needs to be sufficient, but also the level of divine consciousness. Only when divine consciousness reaches that level, can it induce the transformation of the body. Your cultivation base has improved quickly, so pay attention to the enhancement of divine consciousness, which is the most difficult part of cultivation. Both your father and I are stuck at this step and will not be able to reach that threshold in this lifetime."
"Right, I will work hard," Pretty Girl promised, yet she felt a strange sensation inside. Was the enhancement of divine consciousness difficult? But in the recent days, spending time with Tang San, watching him bless the Endless Blue Ocean, her divine consciousness has kept up with her cultivation base, and it seemed special easy! Even now, after her return, the pull of the Asura God’s Sword allows the power of faith absorbed by Tang San to feedback to her, refining her divine consciousness continuously.
It seems that cultivation requires not only effort but also a good husband.
Thinking of this, Pretty Girl’s face flushed red, spitting contemptuously in her mind, "What husband?" He’s not yet. When did she involuntarily accept this relationship in her heart? But, after all, she slept with him last night.
"Why is your face red again? Little Beauty! Your relationship with that Tang San is naturally something I do not oppose. He is even my great benefactor; he revived your father, and there is nothing more important to me than that. But still, I must remind you that before you become an Emperor, you cannot think about marriage. Especially since he is human, if you marry him before becoming an Emperor, your Emperor qualification would never be approved, no matter what."
"Ah, Mom, what are you talking about? Who, who’s going to marry him?" Pretty Girl protested bashfully, her face turning even redder.
Princess Luo Qingzhu laughed, "As someone who has been through it all, your bashfulness is written all over your face, and your eyes, they’ve betrayed you already. But remember mother’s warning. Now is not yet the time for you two to go public."
"Okay, I understand," Pretty Girl said bashfully, looking down.
Emperor... When will she be able to become an Emperor? Take it slow. Maybe by the time she becomes an Emperor, he will have reached that peak even faster than her. This time, he has already reached rank 11. His rate of improvement is much faster than hers!
Suddenly, Pretty Girl felt a peculiar sensation: Ever since meeting Tang San, it seemed that everything was changing, yes, changing for the better. Explore new worlds at novelbuddy
At that moment, a voice came from outside, "Report, Great Elder, a visitor from the Ancestral Court has arrived."
The princess was slightly startled, exchanging a look with Pretty Girl, "Please ask the Messenger of the Ancestral Court to wait a moment."
"Yes."

The princess gave Pretty Girl a questioning look, "Why would someone from the Ancestral Court come at this time?"
On the Demon Monster Land, whether it was the Tianyu Empire or Rihchen Empire, the main cities were mostly autonomous. After all, most main cities have the support of Emperors behind them. They only need to remit a portion of their revenue to the Ancestral Court every year, supporting the Ancestral Court, and generally the Ancestral Court would not interfere with the affairs of the cities. Therefore, the status of the Main City Lord is so prestigious.
Only if there is a truly important matter would the Ancestral Court dispatch a Messenger to a main city. As was the case when Jiali City was previously oppressed by the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor, it was a special case due to the lack of an Emperor supporting Jiali City.

And now, just after Pretty Girl was recognized by the Ancestral Court and officially became the new generation City Lord of the Ancestral Court, the Ancestral Court suddenly sent a Messenger, obviously with a purpose.
Pretty Girl shook her head and said, "I also don’t know what they are here for? I’ll go meet them and ask about their intentions before discussing further."
Ever since witnessing Tang San’s divine might above the Endless Blue Ocean, she truly gained confidence. She firmly believed that even if an Emperor came above the Endless Blue Ocean, they would not necessarily be able to do anything to them.
The princess nodded slightly and said, "Alright, you go. As the City Lord, it shows more importance. We can discuss and solve any problems afterwards."
"Okay."
Pretty Girl straightened her attire and then ordered the Peacock Demon Clan to take the Messenger to await in the main hall of the City Lord Manor. She herself followed.
The moment she walked into the main hall, Pretty Girl’s face had already turned cold, and invisibility, she also carried a bit of dignity.
There were not many envoys from the Ancestral Court, only two, both of Demon King level cultivation. One had a balanced figure, a gentle aura, and was clearly from the Heavenly Fox Tribe. At least nominally, the main affairs of the Ancestral Court are still handled by the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox, undoubtedly, this one was representing the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox. The other envoy was tall and burly, his entire body seemingly filled with explosive power, his arms solid and long, and his skin surfaced with a faint golden glow, he was unmistakably a king-class warrior from the Behemoth Clan.
Seeing Pretty Girl arrive, the two envoys stood up and saluted her, "Greetings to City Lord Mei."
Pretty Girl nodded her head in acknowledgment and said, "Please sit, Messengers." While speaking, she herself took a seat in the seat of honor first.
The two envoys also sat down separately, and from their expressions, they both seemed to be very cordial.
Pretty Girl asked, "May I know what are the orders the Ancestral Court brought this time through both Messengers?"
The Heavenly Fox Tribe Messenger smiled and said, "This time, on behalf of the Ancestral Court, we have not brought any orders, but rather to convey a piece of information to you."
"Information?" Pretty Girl’s delicate brows slightly furrowed, a bit puzzled about what the Ancestral Court intended to do.
The other envoy of the Behemoth Clan said in a deep and resonant voice, "City Lord Mei, it’s like this. To celebrate your official assumption of the City Lord position, our Sky-breaking City Owner is preparing to come in person to congratulate you and bring the friendship of our Clan. Our visit this time is mainly to build a bridge of friendship between our two cities and to inform you in advance."
Hearing this, Pretty Girl couldn’t help being greatly surprised. The Sky-breaking City Owner is coming to Jiali City? It should be known that the Peacock Demon Clan and the Behemoth Clan have never had any contact! Moreover, during my assumption of office, the Sky-breaking Great Demon Emperor was against me.
The current Sky-breaking City Owner is not the Sky-breaking Great Demon Emperor, but the youngest son of the Sky-breaking Great Demon Emperor, and is reputed to be the next generation Emperor of the Behemoth Clan. This one is said to be at the Demon King Peak in terms of cultivation, with extremely strong power. If the Sky-breaking Great Demon Emperor falls due to age or other reasons in the future, this one is likely to directly assume the role of Emperor. Although not considered young, he certainly is an outstanding figure among the strong.
