Ming Xi's face was abnormally pale and his skin was not healthy at all. Even Fire Phoenix behind him had the same complexion. The two of them were dressed no different from the children of the Flame Region. If one didn't look closely, they wouldn't be able to tell who they were.
"What are we doing here?" Fire Phoenix asked in a small voice.
The barrier outside the Demon Palace had been strengthened by successive generations of Flame Devil Kings. Apart from the City Lord who could come and go freely, if they wanted to go in, it would definitely cause a commotion which would alert the Supreme.
"Do you see those children? They were chosen to enter the Priest Palace. When the time comes, the barrier will open to let them in. We just need to mix in and go in. "Ming Xi said in a low voice as his pair of spirited eyes swept the surroundings.
Fire Phoenix said, "We are going to be palace servants?"
"As long as we mix in, we will be able to find Mother." Ming Xi said. "Let's go, the barrier has already started to open."
Ming Xi pulled Fire Phoenix's hand and ran behind the Flame Devil children. The other children noticed them and although they looked unfamiliar, no one suspected them when they saw their skin color.
There were two armored guards checking their identities at the door. Each child held a black tag in their hands. The palace servants took their tags and placed them in a box so that they could immediately verify their identities.
"Ming Xi?" Fire Phoenix said in a low voice.
"For you." Ming Xi took out a black tag and gave it to her.
Fire Phoenix looked at him in shock, "How did you do it?"
"I stole it on the way here." Ming Xi smiled. These people checking the tags didn't even know what the owner of the black tag looked like.
"Really!" Fire Phoenix sighed.
Soon it was Ming Xi's turn. He handed over the tag in his hands and lowered his head in a cowardly manner.
He didn't look any different from the other children so the guards didn't care. His identity was verified and just as Ming Xi was about to walk into the palace, two men wearing dark red clothes walked over.
"Stop." The evil general stopped Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix and walked over to stand in front of them.
Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix stopped and huddled together, pretending to be afraid. They took a few steps back as the evil general approached.
"Find out where these children came from." The evil general wasn't targeting Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix. Instead, he stopped all the children.
"Lord Evil General, what happened?" The palace servant came forward and asked.
The evil general sized up all the children and said coldly, "There is a fluctuation in the barrier. These children cannot enter the palace."
"Lord Evil General, the High Priest said that the children will be sent to the palace today," the palace servant said awkwardly.
"Check their identities," the evil general said coldly and handed a black jade stone to the palace servant. "Check them one by one!"
"Yes." The servant answered and took the jade stone from the evil general's hand. He walked in front of the children and placed the jade stone on their foreheads.
The seemingly inconspicuous jade instantly blossomed with a dazzling light.
A few scenes appeared in the light. They were scenes of the child living in the Flame Region.
Ming Xi furrowed his brows slightly. He and Fire Phoenix did not grow up in the Flame Region. The tokens they stole could be faked, but this could not be hidden anymore.
"Let's go." Fire Phoenix silently signaled.
Ming Xi glanced at him. It seemed that they would not be able to enter today. These two men who had suddenly appeared were the Four Great Demon Generals who had appeared together with the Supreme that day. It was not that he and the Fire Phoenix could not defeat them, but it would alarm the other people in the Demon Palace.
They inched back without leaving a trace, wanting to leave without anyone noticing.
"Where are you two going? Hurry up and come over. "A guard noticed their movements and berated them.
The evil general looked at Ming Xi and walked towards him.
Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix didn't want to reveal their identities, so they revealed a terrified expression. Fire Phoenix's back was pressed against the wall.
Suddenly, the barrier rippled.
"Who are you?" The evil general immediately asked after discovering their identities.
"No one." Ming Xi shouted. He pulled Fire Phoenix's hand and suddenly jumped through the gap in the barrier, running into the palace like a wisp of smoke.
The Fire Phoenix spread its wings, bringing Ming Xi with it as it flew away.
"Divine Beast Fire Phoenix? That child is Mo Mingxi, hurry and stop him! "The evil general ordered as he chased after them.
Dozens of demon palace guards chased after Ming Xi. The evil general and the lone general followed closely behind Ming Xi on their demonic beasts. If they let this child appear in front of Ye Zhen, the high priest would definitely be angry.
"Don't let them go to the priest hall!" The evil general said.
"Careful!" Ming Xi loudly warned Fire Phoenix. In front of them, several demonic beasts roared as they charged.
Fire Phoenix flapped her wings and flew into the sky, almost crashing into the barrier.
"My mother should be at the priest hall. Let's go there." Ming Xi said. He only wanted to go east. "Over there."
"Okay." Fire Phoenix turned in another direction. The two demon generals had already caught up.
Ming Xi sighed, "It looks like we can't leave. We can only fight with them."
Fire Phoenix said, "You seem very excited."
"Indeed a little." Ming Xi said indifferently.
"Halt!" The evil general shouted, "If you trespass into the demon palace again, don't blame us for being impolite."
Other than the evil general and the lone general, the other two demon generals also appeared.
"I think …" Ming Xi looked at them thoughtfully. "Maybe I need an extraordinary weapon. It seems like it will be a bit more impressive."
"You're already very impressive." Fire Phoenix said. She turned into a youth and stood side by side with Ming Xi.
The evil general frowned at Ming Xi. He knew the identity of this child, but he couldn't say it here. "Who are you? Since you dare to trespass into the demon palace, leave quickly!"
"Don't you all know who I am?" Ming Xi chuckled. The four demon generals had chased him for so long without making a move. It seemed like they didn't intend to hurt him. They just wanted to chase him away. Was this what they wanted?
Ming Xi turned into a small golden man. He didn't exchange blows with the four demon generals. Instead, he rushed in the direction of the priest hall.
"Stop him." The evil general called out.
Fire Phoenix stopped the others for Ming Xi.
These two fellows who wished for the world to be in chaos had beaten the demon palace into a sorry state. The four demon generals weren't their match in the first place. They also had to take into account the high priest's orders not to hurt Ming Xi.
They also knew that Ming Xi was the son of the Flame Devil King. Perhaps he had the blood of the Flame Devil in him.
"Halt!"
"Out of the way!" Ming Xi punched the roof of the palace, causing half of the palace to collapse.
The evil general looked at the destroyed palaces. His face turned green.
"Hurry and tell the high priest!" The evil general said through gritted teeth.
Not to mention that they couldn't fight Ming Xi with all their strength. Even if they did, they might not be able to take him and the divine beast down.
Those demonic beasts were so frightened that they didn't dare approach the fire phoenix.
