Huo Ling'er looked for Lin Xiu excitedly and repeated the words of the Demon Emperor.
"Do you know what kind of place Qi Tian Palace is?" Although Lin Xiu was excited that there was a turning point in this matter, he was still a relatively calm person after all and immediately saw the key point of this matter.
Huo Ling'er frowned slightly, then a hint of melancholy appeared on her face.
"Heaven's Equal Palace is a place that only those from the Fire Phoenix Race who are about to inherit the throne of our Demon Race can set foot in. I don't know why Father Emperor would ask you to go there, but from what I see, there shouldn't be any danger. After all, if it wasn't for you back then, I'm afraid that my soul would have already been destroyed. Father Emperor is more or less grateful to you. Huo Ling'er said with some uncertainty. She didn't know much about Qi Tian Palace. After all, although her cultivation was considered good, there was still a long way to go before she could become a Demon Emperor.
"Since I'm here, I'll take things as they come. Even if there is a mountain of knives and a sea of fire in front of me, I have to go through it." Lin Xiu's voice was full of determination. For the sake of his son's life, he would definitely do his best. Even if he had to risk his life, he would successfully bring Qi Tian Mirror back to Huai Ning City.
The day passed quietly with Lin Xiu in a perturbed state.
Huo Ling'er brought Lin Xiu to the Demon Emperor Palace again to see her father.
At this time, the Demon Emperor was dressed in a relatively relaxed outfit. Under the dark green robe, one could see that his figure was quite tall and sturdy.
He looked at Lin Xiu with a satisfied smile on his face, then gently hooked his hand at Huo Ling'er, indicating for her to come to his side.
"Ever since Ling'er returned to the Demon Clan, I've heard a lot about you from her. Young man, you're very good. If you were also a member of the Demon Clan, then I would be very happy to matchmake the two of you, but after all, humans and demons are different, so I can only dispel this idea helplessly. " There was a trace of regret in the Demon Emperor's words, but Lin Xiu could hear a hint of warning in it.
Huo Ling'er's face was covered with a layer of red, she snuggled in her father's arms and gently hammered his chest.
"Father, what are you talking about? Lin Xiu and I are just ordinary friends. "Huo Ling'er's voice became softer and softer until it was as soft as a mosquito.
"I was just casually mentioning it. Look at how nervous the two of you are. Could it be that there really is a story behind it?" The Demon Emperor appeared to be very casual. He did not have the majesty of a peerless expert at all.
"Alright, I'll briefly explain the situation to the two of you. In my opinion, this matter with the Netherworld Palace isn't ordinary. Therefore, I want Ling 'er to take this opportunity to enter the Heavenly Palace. However, I'm still a little worried about him alone. That's why I want you to follow him. As long as the two of you can return safely, not to mention the Heaven's Equal Mirror, I will unwaveringly stand behind the two of you in the future war." The Demon Emperor's words gradually became solemn, causing Lin Xiu's heart to tremble. As expected, an extremely powerful expert like the Demon Emperor already had a trace of foreboding about the future.
It seemed that the reason why the Demon Emperor promised him this time, other than the extraordinary relationship between him and Huo Ling'er, was because the Demon Emperor had some confidence in the future, so he planned ahead and wanted to leave a path of retreat for the Demon Clan.
"I believe that Ling 'er doesn't know much about the Heaven's Equal Palace, so I'll briefly explain the situation inside. Nominally, only those who successfully pass the test of the Heaven's Equal Palace can take over the position of Demon Emperor in the future. But to be honest, that place is an important place of my Fire Phoenix Clan. The corpses of the previous Demon Emperors are buried there." The Demon Emperor's voice became a little solemn.
"In fact, when the people of my Demon Emperor Clan enter that place, what we have to do is to absorb the aura of the old ancestor as much as possible, so that our bloodline becomes even purer. Only by reaching the level of a pure-blooded Fire Phoenix can we become the undisputed Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan. In the future, there won't be any peace on the path of cultivation before reaching the Dao Comprehension Realm. This is also the fundamental reason why our clan can stand tall in this vast continent!"
It was the first time that Huo Ling'er heard about the Heaven's Equal Palace and she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"Father, you're in your prime and it's hard to find an opponent in the entire continent. Why do you want me to enter so early?"
The Demon Emperor rubbed his daughter's head in a doting manner as his voice was filled with endless disappointment.
"Back then, when your mother was giving birth to you, I was the one who taught and raised you. However, you're a little too stubborn and didn't need any help from me. Fortunately, you've grown up quite well over the years. Otherwise, how could I face your mother in the netherworld?"
"To be honest, even I don't have much confidence in the war in the Netherworld Palace. I can only do my best to make you stronger first. If something bad really happens in the future, at least you'll have the ability to protect yourself."
Huo Ling 'er's eyes gradually turned red. It was obvious that she had also realized that in these past few years, she had never been filial to her father. In fact, there were many things that she had directly disobeyed her father. This caused her heart to ache. Looking at the Demon Emperor's hair that was gradually turning white, her heart began to ache.
Seeing his daughter like this, the Demon Emperor slowly patted her back and said softly, "Ling'er, you're my daughter. Why are you crying like an ordinary girl?"
It was Lin Xiu's first time hearing the Demon Emperor's name. At this moment, he also took a step forward and spoke with a voice filled with determination.
"Lord Demon Emperor, please rest assured. As long as I, Lin Xiu, am still alive, I won't let anyone bully Ling'er."
In the spacious room, there were only the three of them. A trace of gratitude appeared on the Demon Emperor's face as he took a step forward to Lin Xiu and patted him on the shoulder.
"Ling 'er has also told me about what you and Jin Ling experienced in the mountain range that was left behind by the Great Earth Sect. Child, you have indeed done well. However, there is still a long way to go before you become a true expert. If I'm not wrong, you should have also obtained the inheritance of that Great Emperor, the Heaven Devouring Technique! "
"Although the strongest expert in the history of my Fire Phoenix Clan is still a distance away from a Dao Comprehending Realm almighty, the difference is not too big. I even have the confidence to ride on the Equal Heaven Palace. The things left behind in there are not any weaker than the things left behind by that Great Emperor. You have to seize the opportunity and make yourself stronger. Only then will you be able to better deal with the disaster that will occur in the future. " The Demon Emperor said sincerely. At this moment, he was not the king of the Demon Clan, but merely an ordinary father who was concerned about his daughter's future.
Lin Xiu and Huo Ling'er nodded their heads heavily. Then, the Demon Emperor waved his hand at them and signaled for them to directly go to the Equal Heaven Palace.
The tear stains on Huo Ling'er's face had yet to disperse. Her eyes became misty as she pulled Lin Xiu's hand and asked with some doubt, "Is the disaster brought by the Netherworld Palace really that bad?"
Lin Xiu thought for a moment. Based on his relationship with Huo Ling'er, it was better not to hide anything. He immediately said in a deep voice, "The disaster this time is indeed extraordinary. In the inheritance space of the Qing Ming Mountain, I met a senior whose strength has even surpassed the Dao Comprehending Realm. According to him, Nine Nether also obtained some inheritance from him back then, which allowed him to quickly rise on the continent. No one knows what other methods Nine Nether has, but he has completely fallen into a state of madness. He only wants to break through the restraints of the world and reach another level of strength. "
"All the experts on the continent are working tirelessly for the sake of survival in the future. Even some young children cultivate with all their might every day. You can imagine how difficult it is."
Huo Ling'er raised her head high and slowly clenched her fists.
"No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to crush all the obstacles like in the past!"
Lin Xiu reached out and held Huo Ling'er's hand. His tone was also unquestionable, "Yes, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to survive this disaster."
The two of them looked at each other and revealed a smile at the same time. Their figures instantly streaked across the sky and rapidly approached the Equal Heaven Palace.
This was a grand hall, and there were many powerful demonic beasts guarding the entrance.
Lin Xiu roughly glanced at them and realized that none of their cultivations were weaker than the peak of the Heavenly Yuan Realm. There were even a few auras that made him feel threatened.
Usually, without the Demon Emperor's orders, anyone who dared to appear near the Equal Heaven Palace would be mercilessly attacked by these guards.
But they had obviously been notified long ago. When they saw Lin Xiu and Huo Ling'er, although their expressions were still cold, they still opened a path for them.
"Princess Royal Highness, and human friends, we have received the order from the Siren King. You only need to enter the main hall. However, you must remember, within seven days, you must come out. Otherwise, something unpredictable might happen." A guard who looked like the leader of the guards approached the two of them and said in a deep voice.
