Soul Land V (Douluo Dalu): Rebirth of Tang San

The Redemption Organization existed as a covert opposition group, Tang San had considered carefully. It undoubtedly meant that some humans' conscience had led them to deeply understand the kind of world they were in.

Simply by looking at the ratio of human slaves within the Wind Wolf Tribe, one could tell that the number of humans in this world was by no means small.

In three days?

The day after the notice was posted, the villages had reacted. The slaves in the villages also had supervisors. Naturally, these were Wolf Monsters.

Early in the morning, the Wolf Monster gathered everyone in the village, old and young, men and women, without exception.

Only the older humans had a silent and numb look in their eyes. The younger ones, around twenty years old, however, had expressions of hope, clearly believing they had the best chance of awakening the Wind Wolf Bloodline.

Tang San stood among the crowd, his heart filled with sorrow. A group of humans here was yearning for something tragic: the hope that their mothers had been violated by Monsters so that they could have a trace of Monster bloodline. How sorrowful that was.

As for the rule of the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan, Tang San had no complaints, after all, it was the natural order of this world. But as a human, seeing his own kind so numbly being slaves just to survive filled his heart with sadness.

Over these eight years, the accumulation of such emotions had made him resolute, aside from finding his wife, to find a way to give the humans in this world a chance to truly become strong, to live with dignity on this world.

"Listen carefully. In a moment, I will awaken your bloodlines. Any slave who awakens the Wind Wolf tribe bloodline can participate in the test two days later. Those who pass and have sufficient Bloodline intensity can become a vassal and go to town for training. Outstanding vassals might even one day receive treatment equal to our clan. This is your chance, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. So, during the awakening, feel your bloodline carefully. Do not suppress any changes, let your transformation show, understood?"

The human slaves bowed in unison, all in a state of sincere fear.

The Wolf Monster nodded in satisfaction, fangs protruding out, his eyes gradually emitting a greenish light, his gaze flashing fiercely. Suddenly he threw back his head and let out a sharp, long howl.

"Ao wū—" With this howl, distant echoes of countless other howls could be heard responding.

Tang San was at the back of the group, but his senses were sharp, and he could feel clearly that as the Wolf Monster roared, its blood boiled and surged with a burning essence. This surge expanded outward, causing everyone present to tremble slightly.

"Ao wū—" As the wolf howl faded, another erupted from the Wolf Monster, making the bloodline aura even denser.

Suddenly, a young man in front of Tang San shivered, seemingly in pain, cried out strangely, and collapsed forward on all fours. From his skin, strands of grayish-blue hair emerged, but it seemed he was in excruciating pain, rolling on the ground.

Was this the awakening of the Wind Wolf Bloodline?

Tang San didn't rush to show his own transformation but silently observed.

Besides that young man, on the other side, a further distance away, a teenage girl also huddled with her hands on her head, squatting on the ground, with slight changes seemingly happening to her.

Apart from these two people, others showed more shivering and trembling, nothing else noteworthy. When they glanced at the two with peripheral vision, there was even a hint of envy in their eyes.

"Ao wū—" When the third wolf howl rang out, Tang San knew he could not wait any longer.

He too suddenly crouched down, clutching his head, showing a painful expression, startling the children around him.

After the third wolf howl ended, the Wolf Monster's gaze began to sweep over the crowd. The transformations that Tang San and the two others went through were the most noticeable, naturally drawing attention. The Wolf Monster stepped forward and pulled them out.

The youth who had hair sprouting from his body was wriggling on the ground, showing obvious changes, saliva dripping from his mouth, looking unconscious.

Tang San and the other girl didn't undergo such drastic changes; the girl merely developed some hair growth around her neck, but Tang San, there was not a single change on his body.

The Wolf Monster didn't pay attention to the young man and the girl; instead, it kicked Tang San, causing him to roll over twice.

"Boy, you should know the consequences of impersonating the noble bloodline of our tribe," it sneered, "you better hope you truly have a reaction. Otherwise, hmph, tomorrow you will be food on the Sacrificial Platform. Take them away."

Several Second Stage Wolf Monsters came over, picked up the three, and carried them out, throwing them onto a cart to be hauled away.

The number of Slaves who had awakened the Wind Wolf Bloodline was fewer than Tang San had imagined. When they were all gathered together, there were only thirteen people, of varying ages, both old and young. Among them, those with the most noticeable reactions and changes were those with visible signs of wolf transformation. There were four such individuals. If judged purely on appearance, those who exhibited such changes likely had a relatively concentrated Wind Wolf bloodline.

Tang San's physical changes were the least, because he hadn't changed at all. Everyone else exhibited varying degrees.

They were gathered together to undergo the bloodline testing all at once the next day.

To Tang San's surprise, the meat was served at dinner that evening. It was the first time since he arrived in this world that he had the chance to eat meat. But he had no appetite.

Of the four Human youths who underwent the biggest physical transformations, three died before dinner.

Tang San had gone to look at their bodies, and the cause was the same for all. The frail bodies of the Slaves couldn't withstand the changes of the Demon God Transformation when the Wind Wolf bloodline awakened, resulting in organ failure or death from ruptured blood vessels.

The three corpses were taken away by the Wolf Monsters who came to check in the evening. Everyone else silently ate their food, no one spoke.

The dinner food was still rough, even the meat, which was fibrous and unidentifiable, was simply boiled without any flavor.

After eating dinner, Tang San simply found a corner to lean back in and sit. In two more days, the bloodline would be tested. He wasn't worried about the Wind Wolf bloodline test; he dared to come because he naturally had his methods.

As he closed his eyes to rest and was quietly about to begin cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Method, he suddenly felt something and instinctively opened his eyes.

Immediately, he saw that someone had appeared beside him. It was the girl who had come out of the same village as him and looked slightly older than him.

Although the girl appeared a bit older, her figure was thinner and smaller than him. Her face, despite being dirty, was still rather delicate.

"You..." The girl opened her mouth, her voice a bit hoarse.

"Hmm?" Communication among the Human slaves was rare; there was somewhat more among the adults. These children, having never received any education since childhood, were confused about everything.

"Can you really do it?" the girl asked in a low voice.

Tang San looked at her with a bit of surprise; the girl lowered her voice and said, "If you can't, you'll, you'll die."

Is she worried about me? A wave of warmth flowed through Tang San's heart. This was the first time since he arrived in this world that he experienced a sense of warmth.
