The next day, a sensational piece of news spread from the Purple Dragon Hall.

The Tiger Power Demon King, plotting betrayal, was annihilated by the Purple Dragon Palace Master with thunderous methods.

Of course, the Purple Dragon Palace Master put it this way also for the sake of her daughter's reputation.

After all, being alone with a man late at night in such a scenario could ruin Bai Ling'er's reputation despite the shocking news; since it was personally announced by the Purple Dragon Palace Master, naturally, no one dared to question it.

However, the death of a peak Demon King was undoubtedly a great upheaval for the entirety of the Purple Dragon Hall.

At this moment, the Purple Dragon Palace Master also displayed her formidable skills, quickly quelling all disputes and dismantling all forces related to the Tiger Power Demon King in a dominant manner, then everything returned to tranquility.

Even Ling Feng had to admit that this Purple Dragon Palace Master was indeed a heroine, competent and skillful; it's no wonder she could climb her way up to the throne of the Eight Great Dragon Envoys step by step.

Three days after the Tiger Power Demon King's death, Bai Ling'er sought out Ling Feng again, saying she had successfully taken on a task from the Demon Emperor, and they could depart soon.

As long as this task was completed successfully, even if Ling Feng was just an ordinary disciple, he would be able to enter the central Emperor Palace of the Dark Dragon Palace and meet the most esteemed Emperor Dark Dragon within.

Seeing Bai Ling'er's cheerful expression, Ling Feng shook his head and smiled, gratefully saying, "Thank you, Miss."

"Why thank me, we are good sisters after all!"

Bai Ling'er squinted her eyes and giggled.

"..."

A black line appeared on Ling Feng's forehead. Well, since he was pretending, he had to grit his teeth and keep it up to the end.

"Hehe…"

Seeing Ling Feng's frustrated look, Bai Ling'er felt secretly delighted, pursing her lips and smilingly said, "Long Fei, what's up? Why don't you look so well?"

Ling Feng cleared his throat, changing the subject, "Um, Miss, why don't you tell us about our mission this time."

"Yes, yes."

Bai Ling'er nodded, "This mission could be considered a type of assessment for elite disciples. Every ten years, elite disciples from our Dark Dragon Palace, Nether Dragon Holy Hall, and Demon Dragon Holy Hall will venture to the Dark Flame Mountain Range to explore an ancient demon race relic."

"On the surface, it's to explore a relic, but in reality, it's to showcase our Dark Dragon Palace's grandeur in front of elite disciples from the other two holy temples. With your abilities, displaying some skills before the elite disciples of the Nether Dragon Holy Hall and Demon Dragon Holy Hall can earn our Dark Dragon Palace some dignity. When that happens, meeting the Demon Emperor will be a piece of cake for you."

Bai Ling'er giggled, "To get you this spot, I had to pester my mother for several days, so make sure to seize the opportunity!"

"Is that so?"

Ling Feng rubbed his nose and asked, "How long will this round trip take approximately?"

"About half a month, why?"

"It's nothing." Ling Feng raised an eyebrow, nodding at Bai Ling'er with a faint smile, "Miss, please convey my thanks to the Purple Dragon Envoy."

This journey to the Dark Flame Mountain Range serves dual purposes: to meet various demon race talents and fulfill his goal of meeting the Emperor Dark Dragon, truly killing two birds with one stone.

"Yes, yes, prepare well. Tomorrow, our Purple Dragon Hall's elite disciples will join forces with elite disciples from the other seven great dragon halls and set off together!"

Bai Ling'er reminded once more.

"Got it."

A sharp glint flashed in Ling Feng's eyes. Facing off against geniuses, just imagining it made his blood boil.

...

Meanwhile, inside the Red Dragon Hall.

"Yain Xue, you truly are the most outstanding offspring of the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor, possessing such cultivation at a young age. I believe, given time, you can surpass me, perhaps even your father, and become the next clan leader of the Silver Wolf Clan!"

The red-haired Red Dragon Palace Master Chi Huo, with eyes as large as copper bells, looked at Yain Xue full of admiration.

Although Yain Xue didn't even secure a championship in the entry-level assessment, it couldn't be denied that he was a rare talent among the demon race. The Red Dragon Palace Master was extremely pleased with his closed-door disciple.

"Master, you overpraise me. You've imparted the 'Great Burning Sky Technique' divine skills wholeheartedly, from which I've greatly benefited. No wonder when I was at home, my father couldn't praise your Great Burning Sky Technique enough, it truly is unparalleled!"

"Hahaha!"

The Red Dragon Palace Master burst into loud laughter, "Your talent is extraordinary, being able to control both ice and fire elements of demon essence simultaneously. Passing the Great Burning Sky Technique to you isn't a disgrace."

The Red Dragon Palace Master continued, "By the way, soon our Dark Dragon Palace will dispatch a significant number of outstanding elite disciples to explore the Dark Flame Mountain Range. It's said to be exploration, but it's more about showcasing the might of our Dark Dragon Palace to the other two holy temples. As your master, I highly value you and hope you can use this Great Burning Sky Technique to dominate others, and when you receive praise from the Demon Emperor, your future will naturally be limitless!"

"Thank you, Master!"

Yain Xue quickly knelt before the Red Dragon Palace Master, though a faint sign of concern flickered in his eyes.

The Dark Flame Mountain Range isn't far from the Yanming Sea.

As it turns out, the Dark Flame Mountain Range belongs to the territory governed by his father, the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor, and the place where the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor and the mysterious Ghost-faced Demon Lord refine the Supreme Lotus Seed lies on an island over five hundred miles west of the Dark Flame Mountain Range.

The island is situated in the Yanming Sea, an inner sea perpetually shrouded in sinister energy, perfect for concealing their clandestine activities.

However, if the geniuses from the three great holy temples converge on the Dark Flame Mountain Range, it will undoubtedly attract several experts from the three holy temples, thus significantly increasing the risk of exposure.

But, given his father's meticulous mindset, this should have been factored into his calculations long ago, so there's no need for him to worry.

Yain Xue coldly smiled, lifting his gaze and said chillingly, "I wonder if that kid Long Fei is also participating in this operation!"

"Hmph, I've already inquired. Indeed, his name is on the roster from the Purple Dragon Hall!"

The Red Dragon Palace Master snorted coldly, "Disciple, the humiliation you suffered during the entry selection should be redeemed by yourself!"

"Good! Very good! Long Fei, clean your neck and wait!"

Yain Xue's eyes glowed with intense killing intent. Having acquired true teachings from the Red Dragon Palace Master, his skyrocketing power has made his heart swell with ambition, long yearning to wash away past humiliations.

This journey to the Dark Flame Mountain Range is a perfect opportunity; he wants to crush Long Fei before all the demon race geniuses from the three great holy temples, leaving him eternally unable to lift his head!
