Chapter 217: A Promise

Tang San shook his head. "Following you? It’d be more accurate to say I\'ve been protecting you."

Mei Gongzi\'s gaze hardened. "Who are you, exactly?"

Tang San smiled slightly, replying, "Who I am isn\'t important. What matters is that we share the same goal. I will help you, and I bear no ill will. You can confirm this with Mayor Zhang. I\'m not one of you, but I am a human like you, united in our common purpose."

As he spoke, he slowly approached Mei Gongzi, extending the crossbow bolts to her.

The recent assassination was undoubtedly a success; the bolts from the Godly Zhuge Crossbow, enhanced with the spatial infusion array of the Peacock Demon Clan, struck the target before it could even activate its innate defense.

The bolts were laced with a potent poison. Once inside the body, it was instantly transmitted throughout, especially to the internal organs, thanks to the spatial power, and it caused excruciating pain. This was key to the success of the assassination. Mei Gongzi\'s close-range attack prevented the target from purging the toxin, allowing her to seize the opportunity and deliver the fatal blow.

Without a doubt, the Godly Zhuge Crossbow, enhanced with an array, was the most crucial element of the assassination. Even with her incredibly sharp claws, Mei Gongzi wouldn\'t have been able to kill a ninth-order expert skilled in defense. Combining a surprise attack and a deadly weapon was crucial for success. And this Godly Zhuge Crossbow had been provided by the man before her!

Mei Gongzi\'s gaze softened slightly. "What do you know?"

Tang San shook his head, "I don\'t know much, but I can make some guesses. Moreover, your actions were risky. You could have easily exposed yourself. Attacking someone that strong without a perfect plan in place can lead to all sorts of problems, especially others finding out your real identity. Even though you have a second Demonic God Transformation to conceal it, once you face a crisis that requires the use of spatial power, you won\'t have a choice but to use it, and then, you will be completely exposed."

The murderous intent that had just dissipated surged back instantly, and Mei Gongzi\'s eyes shone sharply. Ignoring the crossbow bolts Tang San offered, she swiftly lunged at him, her claws going straight for his throat.

Tang San\'s figure flickered as he activated Leopard Flash. Simultaneously, vines began to snake out from the ground around them, growing wildly and forming layers of barriers in the air that blocked her advance.

Silver light sparkled, and the space around them suddenly folded in layers. A blinding silver light erupted, and on Mei Gongzi\'s forehead, the Peacock Crown emerged.

Having a second bloodline was her greatest secret, and now, someone had found out, just like that. His words gave her a strong sense of crisis, as if all her secrets were already known to him.

"Don\'t worry, look, I also have more than one Demonic God Transformation, don\'t I?" As he spoke, Tang San didn\'t activate Leopard Flash again because his Leopard Flash was useless in the face of the blocked space. The vines were also being rapidly shredded by the layered spatial rifts.

But then, a strange scene unfolded. No matter how formidable the spatial rifts were, they continuously grazed past Tang San but never managed to hit him. It was as if he had become an untargetable entity. Under his mask, Tang San\'s eyes were emitting a dense white light.

The layered spatial rifts suddenly became stagnant and halted. Once these unpredictable spatial fluctuations paused, they became chaotic and could no longer be controlled.

"You..." Mei Gongzi was taken aback. Her Peacock Plume was already in hand, and she pointed it at Tang San, yet she didn\'t move.

Tang San slowly walked toward her, and the spatial fissures before him vanished and disappeared.

Mei Gongzi hadn\'t used her full strength yet, but the abilities displayed by the man before her made her uncertain whether to attack.

Three kinds? Or four? How is it possible? How can he possess so many types of Demonic God Transformation?

In the demon clans, it wasn\'t unheard of for someone to possess multiple Demonic God Transformations, but the more types one had, the more significant the bloodline conflict. Generally, having more than three types would deem one utterly useless and incapable of accomplishing anything. Such beings were considered \'mixed blood\' among the demon clans; they held a status even lower than human vassals with one demonic bloodline, and they were abandoned by any clan they appeared in.

Yet, the man before her had just displayed three or four types of bloodline powers! Moreover, what was that ability that countered her spatial fluctuations and made him immune to the spatial rifts? It was clear that this bloodline’s tier was extremely high.

Tang San slowly approached her again and handed her the crossbow bolts, "We are not enemies. I am here to help you."

Mei Gongzi\'s breathing accelerated. An uncontrollable situation was the last thing she wanted. She was well aware of her significant responsibilities within the organization, and even within the Redemption Society, few truly knew her situation. Yet this "familiar stranger" before her knew far too much!

"I know your secrets, and I have also shown you mine. Let\'s call it even," Tang San said with a smile, seemingly perceiving her thoughts.

Mei Gongzi raised her hand and grabbed the crossbow bolts. "Why should I believe you?"

Tang San shrugged. "Think back, last time I appeared, was it not also to help you? If I hadn\'t dealt with that bear earlier, do you think it would have just waited for you to rip its throat out on your first attack? I just want to help you, or rather, help all of humanity."

"Then take off your mask, let me see your face," Mei Gongzi said stubbornly.

Tang San shook his head. “That is the only thing I cannot do yet. If there comes a day in the future when I can, I will let you see my face, I promise. But not now. I cannot reveal my identity. All I can tell you is, if there\'s only one person in this world who doesn\'t want to hurt you, then that person is me."

Mei Gongzi was momentarily stunned, not expecting Tang San to say such things to her at this time.

"I need to go. Before your next move, consider consulting with me. With my cooperation, it\'ll be much safer for you." His figure flickered as he used Leopard Flash again, and in the next instant, he appeared far away.

"How do I find you?" Mei Gongzi called out to his figure, who disappeared into the darkness.

"When you stand at the entrance of Kali Academy in the evening with a cup of milk tea, I\'ll know you need me." After saying this, Tang San\'s figure flickered again and vanished into the night.

"Asura!" Mei Gongzi gazed toward the place he had just left, pondering the words he had spoken earlier. She glanced at the black crossbow bolts in her hand, her eyes full of contemplation.

She removed her hood, revealing her stunningly beautiful face and long hair as white as snow. Gradually, her hair changed color, returning to black, and the white mark on her forehead faded away.

What she didn\'t know was that Tang San, deep inside, was just as shocked as she was.

She has two Demonic God Transformations. And that second Demonic God Transformation bloodline doesn’t seem inferior to that of the Peacock Demons! Where did she get those incredible platinum claws? It has to be at least a second-tier bloodline. No wonder she dared to assassinate the Titan Bear; this second bloodline conceals her identity!
