Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

In the VIP part, a tall man with short golden-red hair saw this scene and couldn't help but show a look of surprise. He muttered, "Well, that’s new. Who would’ve thought of such a method to get away from the Phoenix Fire Rain? Alright, Guanlin, let me see how you handle this."

This man who had the right to sit in a room next to the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor’s was the third-ranked person in the Empyrean Dominion—the leader of the Immortal Flame Phoenix clan and the King of Phoenixes, the Eternal Inferno Undying Demon Emperor.

Ji Guanlin's stubbornness back then had truly angered him, to the point where he even expelled his youngest daughter from the clan. However, he was still her father, and Ji Guanlin had always been his favorite since she was young. If not for his indulgence, she wouldn't have developed such a rebellious personality. But regret was too late; the Undying Demon Emperor could only hope that his daughter would mature through the hardships she faced outside.

This Ancestral Court Elite Competition was a massive opportunity for Ji Guanlin, but nothing more than a stepping stone for her in the Undying Demon Emperor’s eyes. Although the other successor's qualifications were not much inferior to Ji Guanlin's, that one was not his direct blood relative. Even as a Demon Emperor, how could he not have his own selfish desires?

Through her experiences outside, his daughter had clearly matured a lot. Although she hadn't broken through to the tenth order yet, her foundation was extraordinary. And for a gifted heir like her, tempering was very important. It was quintessential for her future growth. As for that Wind Dragon, her so-called companion, it didn't matter much in the Undying Demon Emperor's heart. If she became an Emperor, who could stop her from being with him? In fact, what did it matter even if his daughter had ten other companions in the future? As long as she bore a pure-blooded descendant that could become her heir, that was enough for the clan.

Now that she had reached the top sixteen, Ji Guanlin had a real chance to showcase her abilities and prove herself. Although the Undying Demon Emperor didn't believe his daughter could ultimately win the championship, as long as she could enter the top four, that would be enough. He could bring her back to the clan at that time. In fact, he didn't even want her to win the championship, because he knew Ji Guanlin too well. If she won, her pride would soar to an all-time high. A moderate setback like this would be good for her personality.

Therefore, when he heard that their Dragon-Phoenix Pair had lost in the doubles competition, the Undying Demon Emperor was actually secretly pleased. The defeat proved the inadequacy of the Wind Dragon, and it was indeed because the Wind Dragon’s defenses had been breached and he had been severely injured that they had lost. This would inevitably cause his daughter to reconsider her relationship with the Wind Dragon youngster.

Indeed, no one knows a daughter better than her father.

He had personally come to watch today's match because he wanted to see how much Ji Guanlin had improved after these years of tempering outside.

The eruption of Phoenix Fire Rain, with its powerful offensive and control, made the Undying Demon Emperor very satisfied. The Phoenix Fire Rain looked simple but was actually extremely difficult to execute. The most crucial part was that the Phoenix True Fire needed to be abundant; each fire feather had to be imbued with it. Phoenix True Fire was the real star of the show.

What surprised him was this human youth's strength. His control over his flight was at an incredibly high level, and the Undying Demon Emperor had never seen anyone do something like this to counter his clan’s abilities. This made his expression turn somewhat grim. If other Demon Emperors with flying abilities faced him in the future, wouldn't they be able to mimic this method to counter his Phoenix Fire Rain?

Thus, he now hoped Ji Guanlin could deliver a heavy blow to Tang San, showing these people that the fire of a phoenix wasn't just for show.

In fact, Ji Guanlin was doing just that.

As she faced the approaching Tang San, the massive wings behind her had shrunk to a third of their original size due to her use of the Fire Rain. But at the same time, the golden marks on her forehead had become exceptionally bright.

Her eyes flickered with golden-red light, and she flapped her wings violently. She didn't retreat; facing Tang San's charge, likely a sacrificial strike, she chose to confront it head-on. In an instant, she transformed into a massive golden-red phoenix, charging relentlessly at Tang San.

This put Tang San in a situation where he was being attacked from both front and back. Once he collided with Ji Guanlin, the Phoenix Fire Rain following behind would engulf him instantly. As for Ji Guanlin, these flames were her own, so how could they bring her harm?

At this moment, Tang San was once again in a disadvantageous position. The golden-red sky seemed to have completely enveloped him.

But as they were about to collide, Ji Guanlin noticed the look in Tang San's eyes.

There was no panic, only a chilling coldness.

This coldness sent a shiver down Ji Guanlin's spine, and her bloodline aura was momentarily suppressed.

At that instant, purple-golden light burst forth from Tang San's eyes. The blinding purple-golden light pierced Ji Guanlin's eyes like lightning bolts. ℟ÃNƟꞖĚʂ

This was an instant mental shock, an unavoidable attack.

Ji Guanlin felt her sea of consciousness surge violently, and half of her flames dissipated instantly. This attack was too sudden and too powerful.

Tang San's wings flapped more vigorously, increasing his speed. Seizing this moment, he forcibly charged in. In an instant, they collided fiercely.

Rushing forward, Tang San brought with him a gust of wind. In an instant, the force surrounding him seemed to change color. Before the purple-golden light in his eyes had fully receded, he was already in front of Ji Guanlin.

His hands circled before him, and a strange power burst forth, creating a void in the Phoenix True Fire in front of Ji Guanlin. He flapped his wings forcefully and propelled himself forward, then instantly folded his wings as he pierced through the curtain of fire. His right palm flew directly at Ji Guanlin's chest.

Everything happened in but an instant.

No one had expected Ji Guanlin to suddenly lose control of her Phoenix True Fire. The spectators, including the nobles in the VIP seats and even the Emperors in the VIP rooms, all sensed Tang San's powerful burst of spiritual power.

At that moment, his spiritual power completely overpowered Ji Guanlin's, unleashing an incredibly strong spiritual shock.

Ji Guanlin, being a formidable warrior, responded to this shock with golden ripples emanating from the Phoenix Golden Mark on her forehead, quickly stabilizing her sea of consciousness. And even before it was fully stabilized, she activated her innate ability.

Intense golden-red flames erupted—not outward but inward, causing her entire body to burn fiercely.

When Tang San's palm struck her chest, he felt an incredible heat. Even with the protection of the yin-yang energy and the resistance of the Lion-Tiger Golden Force, he was still affected.

Of course, Ji Guanlin didn't have it easy either. Tang San's palm strike included not only the yin-yang energy but also the Lion-Tiger Golden Force, along with a little bit of teleportation. Yes, after careful consideration, Tang San decided that if a third bloodline was to be discovered, the space attribute was the most suitable. After all, he came from Kali City, home of the Peacock Demon clan, and participated in the doubles competition with the Peacock Demon clan's little princess. The most reasonable way for someone like him to have a third bloodline was, of course, from the Peacock Demon clan.

Therefore, when she ignited herself, Tang San instantly activated his spatial power, forcibly transmitting his attack's force directly into Ji Guanlin's body.

At the same time, his wings spread open again, preventing him from plunging in like a moth into a flame. Instead, he drew circles with his hands once more, using the Mysterious Circles of Heaven.
