Background / History
Tang San is the son of Tang Hao and the Blue Silver Emperor, a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast in human form. He is therefore described as having only half human blood. 24 26
At age six, Tang San shared a bed with Xiao Wu, a hundred-thousand-year Soft Bone Rabbit in human form. When the Martial Soul Hall acted against hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts, Xiao Wu sacrificed herself to become his sixth Soul Ring. Tang San later gathered the means to revive her. 25
Da Ming, the Sky Azure Bull Python, and Er Ming, the Titan Giant Ape, also became Tang San's Soul Rings. After attaining godhood, he revived them and established them as Niu Tian and Titan, the Clear Sky Sect's sect master and deputy sect master respectively. 25
By the present storyline, Tang San resides in the God Realm as the Sea God. He considers Douluo Star and its people to be moving according to his predetermined course, intending to complete a millennia-long plan and ultimately become the absolute ruler of Douluo Star and the God Realm. 3

Personality

Story Role / Major Arcs
Monitoring Douluo Star
Tang San detects the two lights caused by Ao Yao's Martial Soul evolution and discovers that Douluo Star has become obscured from his divine perception. Though alarmed, he initially accepts the change as long as Huo Yuhao's fortune appears intact. 3
The Tang Wutong Arrangement
Ao Yao's diary exposes Tang San's plan to use Tang Wutong's sealed identities—Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiuer—to ensure Huo Yuhao develops feelings for her. The revelation drives Wang Dong'er and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to resist their predicted roles. 4 5

Exposure of His Bloodline and Soul Beast Schemes
The diary reveals Tang San's Soul Beast heritage, his relationship with Xiao Wu, and his alleged plan to claim the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's fortune. These disclosures erode his revered image among diary holders and intensify Soul Beast hostility toward him. 24 25 26
