Soul Land 3: Legend of the Dragon King Chapter 1527
Advertisement
“What did you say?” Er Ming instantly tightened his grip on Tang Wulin's shoulder, and his emotions also took a drastic turn.
Da Ming quickly slapped his hand away, and said, "Calm down! Wulin, explain the situation."
Thus, Tang Wulin told Da Ming and Er Ming about Yuanen Yehui and the Yuanen Family.
"Er Ming!" An accusatory look immediately appeared in Da Ming's eyes.
Er Ming's face suddenly became very flushed, and even though he was an almighty god-like figure in this plane, he was looking like a child who had been caught doing something naughty.
"I didn't do anything wrong, Big Brother; it, it was that girl that I saved last time. At the time, I was in my human form, and, and she kept on following me around..."
Through Er Ming's stuttering explanation, Tang Wulin was able to roughly deduce the situation. It seemed that he really was related to the Yuanen Family! On top of that, it seemed that the Yuanen Family had arisen from Er Ming's relationship with a human woman.
Da Ming grumbled, "I'm not mad about what you did; I'm angry that you abandoned a woman you impregnated! Why haven't I heard about this before?"
"Me? I abandoned her?" Er Ming's eyes widened in a pitiable display as he countered, "I never did anything like that, Big Brother. The time I spent with that woman was the happiest time of my life; how could I have abandoned her? Human love really is something special; only at that time did I understand why Xiao Wu was so enamored with Tang San. Unfortunately, my story was far different from Xiao Wu's experience in love; not only did I not abandon her, I was the one who was abandoned. That woman was with me for less than a month, but one day, she suddenly left.
"She didn't say anything; she simply left behind a note saying that it was over between us! It, it wasn't my fault, Big Brother!"

Tears began to well up in Er Ming's eyes as he spoke.
Da Ming was also quite stunned to hear this. Having been with Er Ming for so many years, he was well aware of Er Ming's personality, and he knew that Er Ming wasn't one to lie about something like this. It seemed that even after so long had passed, he was still deeply hurt by that experience.
"Then why did you never tell me about this?" Da Ming asked.
A gloomy look appeared on Er Ming's face. "Why would I tell anyone about something so embarrassing? Being abandoned by a woman isn't a glorious chapter of my history. After that, the woman disappeared; only after hearing the surname Yuanen did I recall that I told her that my name was Yuanen Ming. The surname stems from the phrase 'primordial gift', which pays homage to the fact that we are indebted to nature for the most primordial gift of life. I, I didn't know that she was pregnant with my child! Why did she leave? I would've been so happy if she hadn't left!"
"Happy my arse!" Da Ming snapped, "It would've never worked out between you two! Your life force is virtually infinite, yet she'll live for just over 100 years at most; would you still have been happy once she died of old age?"
Er Ming's mouth gaped open upon hearing this. "I, I didn't think of that. But I have descendants now! Big Brother, I have descendants! This is..."
Da Ming gave a resigned shake of his head at the sight of Er Ming's lack of composure, but at the same time, a hint of sorrow flashed through his eyes. Unlike Er Ming, he had no descendants.
It wasn't that he didn't want to reproduce; it was just that he had to constantly cultivate and become more powerful in his youth, or risk being destroyed in the Great Star Dou Forest. The pressure to become more powerful for the sake of survival constantly weighed upon him, but once he became powerful enough, he was unable to find a suitable partner. He was a mutated soul beast to begin with, and there was no other Sky Azure Bull Python in existence. In the soul master world, soul beasts of different species almost never reproduced, and a soul beast as powerful as him certainly wasn't willing to stoop to that.

It seemed that if he wanted descendants, his only choice would have to be to find a human partner. In a sense, they could already be considered to be humans after Tang San had revived them in the Divine Realm.
The older one became, the more they wished to have descendants by their side.
Tang Wulin was also very happy; it was naturally a good thing that Yuanen Yehui had such a powerful ancestor. This meant that the Titan Giant Ape Family would become far closer with him, which increased the chances that they would become allies to the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy in the future.
Yuanen Zhentian was a quasigod level Limit Douluo; even if he were inferior in power to Er Ming, it wouldn't be by much.
"Uncle Er Ming, can you resolve Yuanen Yehui's problem? What can we do about her Fallen Angel bloodline?"
Before Er Ming had a chance to say anything, Da Ming replied in his stead, "Does the demonic plane really think it can connect to the Douluo Plane through such a desperate method? What a joke! The demonic plane isn't even as powerful as the abyssal plane. The Fallen Angel martial soul isn't an issue; the main problem is her connection to the demonic plane. Once that connection is severed, it'll only be a martial soul. There's no need for anyone else to step in; you're the most suitable candidate to resolve this issue!"
"Me?" Tang Wulin was very perplexed to hear this.
Da Ming smiled, and said, "Of course! You possess true divine weapons; regardless of whether it's the Sea God's Trident, Dragonslaying Saber or Golden Dragon Spear, all of them have the power to sever planar connections. In particular, the golden trident is the weapon of a godking. All you have to do is sever the connection between the Fallen Angel and the demonic plane; the demons in the demonic plane would soil themselves upon sensing the golden trident's godking aura, and there's no way they'll dare to descend through Yuanen Yehui."
Tang Wulin was instantly enlightened upon hearing this; he had never considered employing such a course of action before!
Er Ming was already jumping up and down on the spot. "Where is she? Take me to see her! I have descendants, haha, I have descendants! Wulin, you're my lucky star!"
Er Ming's elation was very heartwarming for Tang Wulin to see. Both of these were true friends of his parents, so their elation naturally filled him with joy as well.
"Go on then. Even after living for so many years, you're still as excitable as ever," Da Ming sighed as he made a resigned shooing motion.
Er Ming chortled with glee, "I'll bring her back for you to see, Big Brother. Hahaha, I have descendants! I haven't been this happy in tens of thousands of years! Wulin, is she really beautiful as well? If she's as beautiful as your sister, no, even half as beautiful as that, I'll be satisfied. That girl from back then was quite a beauty!"
Tang Wulin's lips twitched slightly upon hearing this. "Before that, can you show me what my mother and sister look like?"
Tears began to well up in his eyes as he spoke. He had lived for over 20 years, yet still hadn't ever seen his own birth mother; what could be more cruel than that?

Exponential Mana Regeneration
When the Change occurred, humanity suddenly found itself with superhuman constitutions and the ability to use mana. All the government leaders had known about it beforehand and had made an announcement, so there was little strife and instead excitement to loot the dungeons that the Change had created. Kyle Anders was incredibly excited when he saw his starting skill, called Exponential Mana Regeneration, but his excitement quickly waned when he realized it was almost useless with his starting mana pool of twenty. He had nearly given up hope on being a mage when his family got him a new skill for his 18th birthday. Suddenly, with his mana pool expanded because of the skill, Kyle’s mana regeneration shot through the roof. But while humanity worked hard to loot dungeons and increase their skills and stats, Change was coming, and peace cannot last forever. The story is currently on haitus. (This story is a work in progress. As the first story that I have ever written, the beginning, especially the first ten chapters or so, needs heavy editing. I have decided to continue writing the story instead of going back and editing the beginning. I hope that despite all its flaws you will still find my story enjoyable.)

The Successor
The Immortal God Emperor is dead...yet his Successor will one day arise. The worlds had long moved on from the greatest Cultivator of all time. The things that had been achieved and the advances made in the Immortal God Emperor's absence were nothing to turn one's nose up at. And yet, something was always missing. Because Cultivators, no matter the goals they pursue, always bow to the greater power. They seek it, they covet it for themselves, and they serve it with reverence. Shan Kai Lan was born into such a world. Born to two herb farmers whose cultivation did not surpass the Foundation Realm, yet who loved their son more than anything. Kai Lan was a child blessed by the Spiritual Plain, far more gifted and more intelligent than others his age. Yet the more profound his achievements, the greater the likelihood that his happy, peaceful life would be trampled on by those who desired his potential for themselves. The question of Kai Lan's journey becomes not whether he will reach the highest peak of cultivation, but what he will be forced to do to keep his young Clan, and the happiness it provides, at peace.

Keep in mind that this is a fantasy work, and any butchering of names, concepts or cultural objects/places/subjects are not meant in any way to offend. With that in mind, Happy Reading! - Jelim

Greene's Monthly Contest
most writers don't have enough recognition. most of them only win awards based on the general aspects of a story; genre or theme, judged by the same things, not appreciating the genius behind the chapters. same awards, same results.--and we disagree with that.
