Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 881 - 879: Madman?

Jin Chengwu never expected that Tang San could forcibly sense the aura of all members of the Blue Gold Tree Clan by utilizing the power of the Tree Ancestor, even sensing those who were crippled.

The Tree Ancestor’s Radiance slowly receded, specks of blue light shone on the bodies of those from the Blue Gold Tree Clan, the halos flickering, they one by one flew into the embrace of the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance and disappeared. Tang San also slowly stood up from the ground.

Tang San walked slowly towards Jin Chengwu, "City Lord Jin, do you have any explanation?"

Jin Chengwu’s complexion changed, but his gaze gradually turned cold. Facing Tang San, he spoke in a deep voice, "I don’t think there’s anything that needs explaining. At this point, Chief Jin, I advise you to be cautious. Do you really want to provoke a dispute between the two clans and the two cities? This is something your Blue Gold Tree Clan cannot afford. Since your clan members have already been brought back, please leave Diamond City as soon as possible, you are not welcome here."

Tang San smiled, "What a robber’s logic. It is only because of the weakness of our Blue Gold Tree Clan that such a tragedy has befallen so many of our clansmen. But that was in the past, from the day I inherited the position of the patriarch, everything has changed. What of the dispute between the two clans? What of waging war between the two cities? Today, I will exterminate your Diamond City right here, to avenge and wipe away the injustice suffered by the deceased clansmen."

Jin Chengwu stared at Tang San in shock, "Are you delusional? Do you dare to offend the majesty of the Emperor?"

Tang San calmly said, "I’ll give you time to call back the Diamond Elf King. If you don’t resolve this matter, I will massacre Diamond City."

"You’re insane, simply a madman." Jin Chengwu looked at Tang San incredulously, knowing full well what the Blue Gold Tree Clan was like, this race was simply not adept at combat! Without the protection of the Tree Ancestor itself, they would likely have already been exterminated. The new patriarch’s ability to utilize the power of the Tree Ancestor indeed made him wary, but his statement about massacring Diamond City was utterly an absurdity.

However, Jin Chengwu didn’t act immediately but instead closed his eyes, the fluctuations of mind being felt. He released his divine consciousness towards the direction of the City Lord Manor, communicating something.

Tang San’s body then soared into the air, slowly ascending.

Jin Chengwu, not daring to delay, communicated through divine consciousness towards the City Lord Manor and also followed Tang San into the air.

"People of Diamond City listen, I am Jin Miaolin, the newly appointed patriarch of the Blue Gold Tree Clan. Just now, with the illumination of the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance, I have found dozens of our clan members imprisoned in Diamond City, some barely clinging to life, some left with only mutilated limbs. Such inhumane actions are the doing of Diamond City, the sins of the Diamond Elf Clan have made our clan deeply detest and agonize. Starting now, on behalf of the Blue Gold Tree Clan, I formally declare war on the Diamond Elf Clan, a fight to the death or glory. I give you twelve hours, within twelve hours, all clans leaving Diamond City will be pardoned. Those who remain in Diamond City after twelve hours, regardless of whether they are from the Diamond Elf Clan, will be seen as declaring war on my clan."

Jin Chengwu’s eyes widened in shock at the sight of Tang San, he never imagined that the situation would escalate to this extent. The new patriarch of the Blue Gold Tree Clan really dared to formally declare war against the Diamond Elf Clan, and with the most severe vow of death or glory. This meant that both sides were heading towards a war of annihilation!

Not to mention him, even the elders of the Blue Gold Tree Clan who came with Tang San were utterly astonished. Seeing the plight of their fellow clan members, they were filled with righteous indignation, but they never expected that Tang San, as their patriarch, would dare to declare war on the Diamond Elf Clan, a clan with an Emperor no less! A race that holds a significant status throughout the entire Rihchen Empire. Although not as prestigious as the Sunflower Spirit Clan or the Dark Moon Spirit Clan, it still ranked among the top strong races and represented the strongest amongst mineral-based Spirit Monsters.

Facing such a direct declaration of war from the race, can the Blue Gold Tree Clan bear it?

Although shocked, at this moment, the Elders of the Blue Gold Tree Clan only felt an immense sense of relief; it had been many years since the Blue Gold Tree Clan had ever been this assertive.

Was Tang San being too excessive? Against a strong race facing a weak one, it never is excessive. His own clansmen had been captured and slaughtered, and as the patriarch, if he did not resist, it would only embolden the enemy further. Moreover, Tang San had already had the Ancestral Court issue a decree demanding all major cities to return their clansman, but up to now, not a single clansman had been returned. Clearly, nobody took the decree of the Ancestral Court seriously, and the Ancestral Court would not actively help the Blue Gold Tree Clan to locate their missing clansmen.

At this moment, Tang San’s outright declaration of war undoubtedly also told all other main cities and other races that the Blue Gold Tree Clan had now stood up; no one could bully them anymore.

After Tang San finished his speech, he descended back to the ground, returning to where he had been sitting before, and sat down cross-legged again.

Wait, yes, he was waiting, even waiting for the return of the Diamond Elf King. Without the courage to face an Emperor, he would not have been so decisive.

At this moment, the life force within him clearly became more accessible. The Mark of the Tree Ancestor and his own Blue Gold Tree Clan Bloodline Brand were becoming even more attuned, with even more enriched life force gathering towards them from around Diamond City.

The Tree Ancestor is a part of the plane master, controlling the life force of the entire plane. Clearly, the situation occurring in Tang San now was akin to being recognized by the plane. That is to say, if the Tree Ancestor truly regained consciousness and wisdom, it would do the same.

What kind of existence is the Tree Ancestor? It can be said that without the Tree Ancestor, Demon Monster Land wouldn’t be what it is today; it is the pioneer of the entire Spirit Monster race. Yet its people, treated as resources to be slaughtered and controlled, the Blue Gold Tree Clan was even coerced to the extent of not daring to leave the inner city of Jianmu City. Over the years, how many times has the Blue Gold Tree Clan accumulated grievances and prayed in front of the Tree Ancestor? The Tree Ancestor could even sense it in its subconscious.

At this moment, what Tang San was doing undoubtedly made his connection and divine consciousness with the Tree Ancestor more accessible. The Tree Ancestor was increasingly treating him as its true spokesperson.

Tang San was doing this not only for the recognition of the Tree Ancestor but also for the Blue Gold Tree Clan itself. Due to the Golden Tree, he was very close to the Blue Gold Tree Clan. Whether it was the Diamond Elf Clan or other races that captured the Blue Gold Tree Clan, in his view, such acts were barely different from beasts. All being Spirit Monsters, yet able to strengthen themselves by slaughtering the other—if this occurred among humans, how different would it be from cannibalism? To deal with such beasts, it is natural to fight fire with fire.

Under the agitation of his divine consciousness, Tang San’s voice spread far and wide, reaching every corner of Diamond City. At this moment, Diamond City was already in turmoil.

Most Spirit Monsters didn’t even understand what was happening. However, those who knew a bit about the Blue Gold Tree Clan could understand some reasons, especially since the Ancestral Court had also previously issued decrees.

But in their perception, most of it was bewildering. When did the Blue Gold Tree Clan dare to openly declare war against the Diamond Elf Clan? Based on that newly appointed Chief?

No need to mention others, this newly appointed Chief of the Blue Gold Tree Clan was definitely not an Emperor yet! Once the Ancestral Court has a new Emperor born, it would definitely announce it immediately and spread the news throughout the entire continent. Yet, the Diamond Elf Clan is a powerful race with a true Emperor in existence. The Diamond Elf King is also an established Emperor. Although not the strongest among Emperors, his formidable defensive power also earned him an indestructible title.
