Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

Wu Bingji appeared absent-minded, following Tang San wherever he went without caring about the destination. For him, nothing was more important than pondering over his ice elemental control.

Walking through streets and alleys, Tang San led Wu Bingji along the edges of roads. They wore the academy's uniform, marked with the logo of Kali Academy. However, their logo indicated they were vassals, not students. Their status as vassals of Kali Academy was much higher than that of ordinary vassals, so the average demon wouldn't trouble them under normal circumstances.

Tang San wasn't paying attention to their surroundings. As they neared Kali Square, his heart began to beat faster, filled with both anticipation and anxiety. What if Mei Gongzi wasn't at the tea shop? What if her tea shop was closed? In this world of demons, human vassals were always in potential danger, especially given her and her mother's beauty.

From a distance, he finally saw Kali Square. Tang San took a deep breath to steady himself. Gulping hard, he quickened his pace toward the square.

It was still afternoon, bright but past the day's warmest period. The first thing Tang San saw was the large tree where he had waited for Wang Yanfeng. The warm afternoon sun shone through the crown of the old tree, casting uneven, dancing shadows on the ground.

His gaze pierced through the shadows of the trees, and amidst the interplay of light and dark, he spotted a little shop in the distance.

Yes, it was still there. Mei Gongzi's milk tea shop remained.

With the Discerning Eye combined with the Purple Demon Eyes, Tang San instantly maximized his vision.

Wu Bingji actually sensed something and turned to look at Tang San out of reflex. He was startled to see a purple glow swirling in Tang San's eyes.

As he remembered, the milk tea shop was unchanged from his last visit. Demons buying milk tea queued endlessly at the entrance. Inside, two figures bustled about.

Absent was the older one; only two petite figures were present.

She’s there, she’s there!

Tang San didn't care whether her mother was present or not; the important thing was that she was there.

She was as beautiful as ever, with her fair little face and pointed chin. Perhaps due to her busyness, a light pink hue covered her cheeks, perfectly embodying the term "delicate."

Her long hair was coiled atop her head, secured with a wooden hairpin, revealing her slender neck. A few strands of hair fell around her fair neck, gently swaying with her movements, exuding a youthful aura.

Today, her attire was black, a neat outfit with clean lines. For her, it wasn't the clothes that enhanced her beauty, but her beauty that illuminated the clothes.

Unconsciously, Tang San had walked under the large tree, standing in its shadow, gazing blankly at the milk tea shop.

"Little Tang, have we arrived?" Wu Bingji's voice came from beside him.

Tang San didn't look at him but pointed at the tree instead. "Let's rest here for a bit."

"Oh, okay." Wu Bingji didn't question him, as he was completely immersed in comprehending the ice element. He was only too eager to stop and have a quiet moment for better contemplation.

Thus, these two human vassals stood under the tree's shade in the center of Kali Square. One stood there staring into the distance like a fool, while the other, equally lost in thought, had his hands clasped together, and his lips were moving silently as if he was praying or reciting something.

It wasn't until the afternoon sun began to set that Tang San snapped out of his reverie.

He had been standing here, just watching, watching from afar. Seeing her beauty and seeing that she was safe and sound filled his heart with immense satisfaction.

He had never considered approaching her, feeling he was not yet worthy. He also knew that it was better not to get close to her until he had the strength to protect her.

He turned to glance at Wu Bingji sitting under the tree. His senior brother was still engrossed in his own world, unable to extricate himself. Occasionally, a small puff of ice mist could be seen on his hands.

Tang San took a deep breath, took out two demonshard coins, and then turned to Wu Bingji. "Senior brother, wait here for me. I'll go get you something to drink."

"Oh," Wu Bingji responded. His mind entirely focused on controlling the ice element, paying no attention to anything else.

Tang San took a deep breath. Seeing Mei Gongzi again stirred the most incredible emotions in his heart: excitement, restlessness, and nervousness.

This feeling was unique, something he had never experienced even in his past life, akin to going on a blind date. Well, Tang San had never been on a blind date, so he had no way to know if that was the feeling, but he thought that was probably how it felt.

With these complex emotions, he had unknowingly arrived outside Mei Gongzi's milk tea shop.

There were quite a few demons buying milk tea at this time. Tang San silently queued up at the back. His stature was small and inconspicuous compared to the giant demons around him. Mei Gongzi and the little clerk in the shop couldn't see him, hidden as he was in the back.

But Tang San could silently sense their presence and hear Mei Gongzi's pleasant voice.

"Thank you."

"Come again!"

She only spoke these few words. Yet even these impersonal platitudes, when they came out of her mouth, caused his heart to tremble slightly.

The sound and smile of his wife from his previous life appeared in his mind. She always looked at him with a coy smile. Even after many years, he could still clearly remember the scene of their first meeting.

Her first words were "My name is Xiao Wu, 'Wu' as in 'dance.'"

But when they met again in this world, she said something different. She said her name was Mei Gongzi.

Mei Gongzi.

The milk tea was made and sold quickly, so the demons buying it would leave swiftly. Tang San followed the queue, moving forward. Finally, it was almost his turn.

Just as he was about to step forward, ready to face Mei Gongzi up close, suddenly, something pushed his shoulder hard, sending him stumbling sideways.

Regaining his balance, he looked at the one who had pushed him. It was a burly demon with a big belly and two long tusks at the corners of its mouth.

It didn't even glance at Tang San. Instead, it turned directly to Mei Gongzi and said, "Ten cups of milk tea."

Mei Gongzi, at that moment, was looking at Tang San.

Tang San had been so focused on her that he hadn't expected anyone to push him at that moment. Caught by surprise, his anger surged, and his face showed a mix of shock and rage.

Mei Gongzi looked at him with a bit of surprise, then turned her gaze to the demon that seemed to be from the porcupine clan. She said lightly, "You didn't queue."

The porcupine demon was taken aback, "How did I not queue? I've been queuing."

Mei Gongzi calmly repeated, "You did not queue."

"What do you mean?" the porcupine demon asked, seemingly starting to get pissed.

Just as it was about to take a step forward, another demon behind it suddenly grabbed its shoulder and whispered something in its ear.

The porcupine demon's expression changed. Slowly stepping back, it gave up its place in the queue.

Mei Gongzi then waved at Tang San.
