Yanshan City.
Demon King's Residence.
Demon King's Residence.
On the second day after Ning Qi received Northmoon Lengqiu's Communication Talisman, he received a message from Pain. He arrived at the Demon King's Hall with Lan Ruo. When the two of them arrived, Urriel and Pain were already seated in the hall. Aside from the two of them, Wan Li and Zhu Feng were present as well. Hong Xu and Bai Ming stood behind them. When they saw Ning Qi, a strange look flashed through their eyes.
They were certain that Pain had called them here for the Demon Prodigy Battle. But why was the young master of Bei Xuan here too?
He wasn't even in the Human Demon Stage, so there was no point in him participating in the Demon Prodigy Battle.
"Master."
Ning Qi looked at Pain and clasped his hands.
Pain glanced at Ning Qi and his eyes moved slightly. He seemed to notice that Ning Qi's aura had thickened a lot in the past few years.
"Well, now that everyone is here, I don't need to say anything. I'm sure you've already received the news. The Demon Prodigy Battle will start in two years. I've already notified Spider Line and confirmed that they'll be participating. So, I'm asking for your opinion. Are you going or not?
Master won't force you. "
"The Demon Prodigy Battle that happens once every hundred years. Junior brother, are you going?"
Wan Li chuckled and looked at Zhu Feng.
Zhu Feng nodded and looked at Ning Qi. He smiled, "Fourth junior brother, you don't have to go. It won't be too late to participate in the next Demon Prodigy Battle. With a hundred years, you should be able to break through to the early Human Demon Stage. That way, the reputation of our Demon King's Residence will not be tarnished."
Just when Ning Qi was about to speak, he was interrupted by Zhu Feng.
Then, Wan Li nodded and smiled, "Junior brother Zhu Feng is right. Fourth junior brother, what do you think?"
"I'm going to participate."
Ning Qi smiled.
Zhu Feng's expression changed slightly. He was somewhat dissatisfied.
Urriel chuckled and looked at Pain. "Second Brother, I told you that he would definitely go. Even if it wasn't for the Medium Grade Magic Tool, he would definitely go for the million Medium Grade Mana Crystals."
Pain smiled and said, "Since the three of you plan to participate in the competition, I have something to tell you. This time, Liu Donghe has spread the word that he will ambush you in the Demon Race's Heaven's Pride Battle …" After a pause, Pain's eyes fell on Ning Qi, "Beixuan, especially you, you killed so many of his disciples and grand-disciples. He is a narrow-minded person, he won't let you off easily. Do you still plan to participate in the competition?"
"If one comes, I'll kill one. If two come, I'll kill two."
Ning Qi smiled.
"Alright! Beat them up! "
Lurier roared.
Wan Li and Zhu Feng were dumbfounded. They had heard of Liu Donghe before. He was a terrifying existence who had reached the Earth Devil Stage a long time ago. But, this guy actually wanted to ambush them in the Devil Race's Heaven's Pride Tournament? And the reason was because Ning Qi had killed his disciples and grand-disciples? They couldn't help but think that many years ago, Ning Qi had indeed left Yan Shan City for a period of time. So, was the enmity between the two formed at that time?
Apart from being shocked and angry, the two also felt a little strange. After offending Liu Donghe, Ning Qi was still alive. It was really unbelievable.
Pain glanced at Lurier, then looked at the three and said, "Liu Donghe is different from me. He has at least eighty disciples, if not a hundred. Adding those disciples and grand-disciples, there might be three to five hundred. If you don't plan to participate in the Heaven's Pride Battle, I won't say anything."
In comparison, the number of people in the Demon King's Mansion was indeed very few. Wan Li and Zhu Feng also didn't have any disciples. Including Ning Qi, there were only three of them. During the Heaven's Pride Battle, there was a high chance that they would be ambushed by Liu Donghe's disciples.
Wan Li glanced at Ning Qi and snorted in his heart. Then, he cupped his hands towards Pain and said, "Master, disciple has made up his mind. Anyway, my cultivation has reached a bottleneck. Maybe during the Heaven's Pride Battle, I will comprehend something and break through to the Demonic Perfection Realm."
"Disciple is the same."
Zhu Feng said.
"Since that's the case, then make your own preparations. These three items might be able to save your lives in a life or death situation."
Pain laughed. With a flick of his finger, three beams of golden light shot into the foreheads of Ning Qi and the other two. Ning Qi's eyes flickered as he immersed his mind into his sea of consciousness. He discovered that there was a dazzling golden talisman floating in the air. The runes on it were very simple and mysterious, and there was a trace of an incomparably vigorous aura drifting out from it, giving people a sense of security.
At this moment, the devil qi elemental bead seemed to have sensed the arrival of the talisman. The devil qi suddenly surged, crazily rushing into the talisman. In the blink of an eye, the devil qi elemental bead had shrunk a little. Ning Qi stared dumbfoundedly at this scene, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes. Fortunately, this state only lasted for a short while. After the talisman absorbed a large amount of devil qi, the golden light on it became even more resplendent.
"Devil God Evasion Talisman? Many thanks, Master! "
Wan Li and Zhu Feng were rather overjoyed.
"Your master guessed that you would be participating in the competition, so he specially went to the Heavenly Talisman tribe to ask for these three talismans for you. At the very least, you can stop that old bastard Liu Donghe from scheming against you and dying during the Demon Prodigy Battles."
Rulier smiled.
"Thank you, Master."
Ning Qi clasped his hands, but he felt rather mixed inside. He had cultivated for over five years, yet the demon qi elemental bead had not shrunk by much at all. Instead, the Demon God Evasion Talisman had shrunk it. Who knew how much of the demon qi that should have belonged to him had been sucked away. If the Demon God Evasion Talisman failed to satisfy him during the Demon Prodigy Battles, Ning Qi would definitely lose everything.
… …
"All seven clans have sent people to participate?"
"That's right. Young master Beixuan, you told me to keep an eye out for Northmoon Lengqiu. She's also participating this time."
"Yeah. Go to the Northmoon clan and tell her that if she's willing to set off with us, come find me in the Demon King's estate tomorrow."
"Yes!"
Lang Xue Xing turned around and left in a hurry. He felt like Ning Qi truly valued and trusted him by handing this matter to him, so he was obviously happy.
Very soon, he arrived at the Northmoon clan. After flashing his identity, he saw Northmoon Lengqiu very smoothly.
"Your young master told you to come find me?"
Northmoon Lengqiu was rather surprised.
"Miss Lengqiu, the young master said that if you're willing to go with him, you can go find him in the Demon King's estate tomorrow."
Lang Xue said softly.
"Really?"
Northmoon Lengqiu was both surprised and overjoyed. He found it rather hard to believe. The location of the Prodigy Battles this time was the Ancestral Demon Mountains. That place was extremely dangerous, as well as the first trial the three tribes had given to the participants. The participants had to pass through the Ancestral Demon Mountains and arrive at the location without any accompanying guards. Every time the Demon Prodigy Battles took place, many self-proclaimed prodigies would be eliminated at this stage. They did not even have the right to participate.
"Of course it's true."
Lang Xue smiled.
"T- then go back and tell your young master that I'll definitely be there on time tomorrow."
Northmoon Lengqiu suddenly became rather embarrassed.
