Chapter 1092: Where Does the Flaw Originate From?
Pretty Girl saw him change back to his original form, reverting to Tang San's appearance, and finally let out a big sigh of relief, though she was very confident.
Tang San looked at Pretty Girl and said with a wry smile, "How did you figure it out? I thought I hadn't shown any flaws. My plan was to win the championship today, defeat you, and then choose you directly to make it the most stable approach. But I didn't expect you would go all out, you really scared me."
"Hmph, you deserved it. I haven't been able to contact you for so many days, do you know how worried I was? You need a good beating to ease my anger," Pretty Girl said, annoyed.
"Then how did you recognize me?" Tang San asked with a fawning smile.
Pretty Girl replied, "It was Grandpa. Yesterday, Grandfather persuaded me to consider you, which I refused. At that time, Grandpa fully stood by my side, and that's when I began to suspect. Then I recalled the previous matches and every conversation with you, becoming more and more convinced. Because I know you well enough, you never do anything you're not sure of. You always try to accomplish what you say you will. You promised me you'd come to the tournament, so you would naturally come. If you lost, you'd definitely contact me immediately and think of another way. But you hadn't contacted me; you couldn't have gotten into trouble in the tournament because your true strength is there. Calming down and reflecting, I guessed you must have been among those who advanced, and as the matches progressed, you showed more and more abilities, and your trump cards appeared to be endless. I guessed you were most likely Jin Miaolin, although unthinkable, something others couldn't imagine, either. Today, I burned my bloodline to strike you with a sword, which finally confirmed it. One was to test whether you'd let me burn my Life Force, and the other was to recognize you with the Asura God's Sword. Although I only struck your shield, the sword beam in such an explosive state felt your aura up close, and it confirmed you. You are Tang San; the Asura God's Sword cannot harm you anyway, otherwise, I would have killed Jin Miaolin."
Tang San said, "So it was indeed the White Tiger Great Demon King who let it slip, yes, only he knows my identity. That's why a secret known by someone else can never truly remain a secret. Don't be mad, the battle for the monarchy is attracting everyone's attention, if I revealed my identity before you, when we meet on the battlefield or cross each other or if I'm pressured by other contestants, you might easily give yourself away. The Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox controls the Luck of the entire continent and has an extremely strong sense of perception, even the slightest hint could expose us."
"Hmph!" Pretty Girl turned her head in lingering anger, but the hand he grasped only tightened.
How well she knew the pressure Tang San was bearing in this tournament was greater than hers. Winning while unable to use his own favored abilities, how difficult was it? In the further matches, he even defeated opponents doubly to prevent her from encountering Xu Anyu. He protected her to eventually become a Quasi Emperor.
Tang San also held her hand tightly, looking at the two mothers sitting opposite him, who still hadn't fully recovered from shock. His smile became all the more radiant, "The hardest time is over. In the future, no one can control our destiny again. The day we become Emperors will be the day we ascend to the heavens."
Pretty Girl turned back to look at his spirited mien, and the anger finally faded from her face.
Indeed, both having achieved the status of Quasi Emperors, their crises were over.
"What should we do next?" Pretty Girl asked Tang San.
Tang San said, "You should return to Jiali City as soon as possible. Things should be mostly prepared there, ready to teleport and migrate our clansmen overseas. Then wait for me in Jiali City."
Pretty Girl suddenly became anxious, "Aren't you coming back with us? Are we separating again?"
Tang San replied, "I won't, don't worry. While I can't return with you, I promise I will teleport to be by your side every day for a while. I can't leave the Ancestral Court right now. Next, I need to prepare for making the Blue Golden Tree Clan neutral, which will elevate my position in the Ancestral Court. When I become Emperor and cross the Tribulation, the commotion will be great and quite difficult. By then, I will need some Emperors' assistance to make it smoother. Hence, I need to continue using the identity of Jin Miaolin. At the same time, I will also dispatch the Blue Golden Tree Clan overseas to help humans elevate their Life Force. The Emperor Sky Pillar I bought at the auction is also important, as I want to extract a cultivation method beneficial to us humans from it. Once I finish these tasks, I will rightfully as Jin Miaolin go to Jiali City to marry you. Then we will gather strength and prepare to cross the Tribulation and become Emperors."
"There's no need to rush the Tribulation. You're still young, take your time to build up. I've heard that the Emperor Tribulation is very dangerous," Su Qin said.
Tang San said, "Tribulation depends on the opportunity. My Tribulation will be different from other Emperors; I can only succeed in one go when the opportunity arises. Little Beauty, having merged with the Asura God's Sword, her Tribulation situation is similar to mine. Within a year, we probably have to undergo the Tribulation."
Su Qin's heart tightened, "A year, is it that brief?"
Tang San nodded, saying, "Rest assured, Auntie, I will prepare thoroughly. With the Blessing Life Necklace, I should be able to undergo the Tribulation with Little Beauty, supporting each other."
Su Qin was about to speak further, but the Peacock Princess interjected, "Sister, what else is there to worry about? He managed to become Jin Miaolin, turning all contemporary Emperors around, becoming the most sought-after Main City Lord, and achieved the status of Quasi Emperor as a human, what can't he do?"
Peacock Princess felt as if her worldview had been completely overturned. Recalling Jin Miaolin's diverse exhibitions during this time, she was filled with speechless awe.
Her husband was already extremely wise, a great talent. But compared to the one before her, he was like a small witch before a great witch. Although she didn't understand how Tang San accomplished all this, he faced different Emperors and countless challenges. Yet he came this far, especially in the massively popular battle for the monarchy, able to handle it flawlessly, defeating opponents without using his true abilities; what he achieved was nothing short of incredible.
Su Qin took a deep breath and smiled brightly, "Yes, I am truly worrying too much. Everything you've accomplished, Tang San, I find indescribable."
Tang San's gaze deepened a few shades, "In previous travels, I crossed the Endless Blue Ocean and experienced some things in the Rihchen Empire, accumulating over time. After this battle for the monarchy, I believe no major irresistible force will present itself."
Pretty Girl said, "How should the coming time be arranged? When will you officially come to Jiali City?"
Tang San replied, "I will probably stay in the Ancestral Court for a month, discussing how the Blue Golden Tree Clan should maintain neutrality with the Emperors. Then I will first make a trip back to the Blue Golden Tree Clan to finalize the plans, officially making the Blue Golden Tree Clan neutral. After you return, let Premier Xiao He also prepare. I expect to reach Jiali City to officially propose in about three months. About six months later, we will start the overall migration, helping our clansmen immigrate overseas. Six months of preparation should be enough, and our Jianmu City overseas should be able to accommodate them. Then I will accompany you overseas for cultivation, teaching the clansmen new cultivation methods, waiting for the right moment to cross the Tribulation and become Emperors."
Pretty Girl nodded, having no objection to Tang San's plan.
"You handle your affairs, during the time at the Ancestral Court, don't teleport over to me; it might be discovered, and be harmful to you." Pretty Girl said softly.
