"Congratulations, Demon King!"
"The Demon King is extremely gifted, both virtuous and talented. He will definitely be a pillar of our ancient country in the future!"
"The Demon King is a handsome man. My daughter is only 28 years old and is currently waiting to be married..."
"Monster Suppression King, don't listen to Lord Hu's nonsense. His daughter is extremely ugly. My daughter is as beautiful as a flower, with a stunning appearance. She is a perfect match for you, Your Highness!"
"… "
Everyone stood up and bowed to Ling Xiao with fake, flattering smiles on their faces.
Some people even started to target Ling Xiao.
However, these were all heads of small families, while the heads of large families, as well as the Ninth Prince Xia Yunran, Chen Weishan and others remained silent.
They all knew that although Ling Xiao had become the Demon Suppressing King, it was still unknown how long he could sit on the throne.
After all, there is a life-and-death battle in a month!
Regarding this life-and-death battle, almost no one is optimistic about Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao smiled faintly and ignored those who flattered him. After he took the imperial edict, the eunuchs smiled flatteringly, said a few words of congratulations, and turned around and left the Demon Suppression King's Palace.
Ling Xiao's eyes were calm and peaceful, yet there was a gleam of sharpness in them. He scanned the entire audience, and those who were invited to watch the ceremony all smiled at Ling Xiao, and some even showed flattering smiles.
Everyone in the Ling family didn't dare to look directly at Ling Xiao. They all avoided his gaze, with a hint of fear in their eyes.
At this moment, Ling Xiao is the new Demon Suppressing King and the new owner of this palace!
What happened today was undoubtedly shocking.
From Ling Tianci showing his powerful talent, to Ling Xiao's appearance, Xia Hongxiu breaking off the engagement, Ling Xiao suppressing Ling Tianci, and the people from Wanshoumen coming to question him, this series of events is dizzying.
In the end, Ling Xiao became the most dazzling genius in the entire royal capital. With his cultivation in the Dragon-Tiger Realm, he suppressed Snake Tianluo, one of the Seven Sons of Ten Thousand Beasts. This combat power was simply astonishing!
But at the same time, everyone was a little worried. Facing a martial arts holy place like Wanshoumen, how should Ling Xiao face the life-and-death battle in a month
The power of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is unquestionable. Although Ling Xiao is a genius, he is still young and his cultivation is not high.
Everyone suddenly remembered that Ling Xiao was only sixteen years old this year!
The brilliance of the sixteen-year-old has illuminated the entire Great Wilderness Ancient Country, making the five princes of the royal capital pale in comparison. In the future, he will surely illuminate the entire Eight Wildernesses and become a king!
Everyone said goodbye and left, and the Ling family's martial arts training ground was soon empty.
A fragrant breeze blew over, making Qingqing, who was wearing a green dress, look hot and excited. She had a stunning face and a pair of big eyes that were bright and dazzling, as if they could drip water.
Her beautiful eyes sparkled as she stared at Ling Xiao and said with a smile, "Little brother, do you still recognize your sister?"
Ling Xiao was slightly stunned, and looking at Ling Qingqing's familiar face, he remembered that this little witch Ling Qingqing in front of him had bullied Ling Xiao many times in the past and was very familiar with Ling Xiao.
Because the Demon Suppression King and the Imperial Preceptor Ling Juechen have a very good relationship, the two families visit each other frequently, and Ling Qingqing often takes Ling Xiao to play.
Especially when Ling Xiao was diagnosed with venous congestion all over his body and was unable to practice, and everyone distanced themselves from him, only Ling Qingqing stayed by his side, and she often beat up those who bullied Ling Xiao, earning herself the nickname of a little witch.
Three years have passed, and both of them have grown up. Ling Xiao can still vaguely see the figure of the little witch from Ling Qingqing's stunning face.
"It turns out to be Sister Qingqing. I am honored to meet you!"
Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said, from Ling Xiao's previous memories, Ling Xiao felt that Ling Qingqing was one of the few people who brought him warmth.
"Humph, you have a conscience and haven't forgotten your sister!"
Ling Qingqing hit Ling Xiao's shoulder with her pink fist and suddenly grinned. Her smile had a breathtaking beauty that made the world pale in comparison.
"Sister, you're here to participate in the year-end competition today. Are you here to see me?" Ling Xiao smiled and joked.
"Still as vain as before!"
Ling Qingqing rolled her eyes and said, "You went to Changshengmen three years ago, and I thought I would never see you again! I didn't expect you to come back today, which really surprised me! If Uncle Ling knew how impressive you were today, I wonder how happy he would be! But... you are still too impulsive for the life-and-death battle in a month!"
Ling Qingqing glared at Ling Xiao in dissatisfaction, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
“The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is one of the five great martial arts sacred places, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Seventh Son is the strongest of the younger generation of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. They are very powerful. Although you defeated She Tianluo, he is only the weakest one. The top few of the Ten Thousand Beasts Seventh Son can easily crush him!
Especially the Dragon Son, who is ranked first among the Seven Beast Sons, and is known as the supreme young man with unparalleled talent, unparalleled fighting power, and unparalleled luck! If he comes, you will definitely lose!"
Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Dragon Son? Sister, you are encouraging others and destroying your own prestige, right? I really want to meet this Dragon Son!"
"You are so ignorant. When you meet Long Zi, you will know how terrible he is! I will go back and ask my father to refine some precious pills for you to improve your cultivation. I hope your cultivation can be improved as soon as possible. Then I will ask my father to ask the king. You will be fine in a month, don't worry! You like to make trouble since you were a child. When you grow up, you still need your sister to clean up your mess. Okay, I'm leaving!"
Ling Qingqing glared at Ling Xiao, then turned and floated away.
The Ninth Prince Xia Yunran, Chen Weishan and others had no intention of greeting Ling Xiao at all, and left the Demon Suppression Palace indifferently.
In their eyes, Ling Xiao would definitely die in a month, so there was no need to worry about him anymore!
"Little friend Ling not only has extraordinary talent in martial arts, but also has great attainments in alchemy. Little friend Ling can come to my Spiritual Medicine Pavilion more often when he has time. I am eager to learn from Little friend Ling about alchemy!"
True Man Chunyang and Master Jiaomu came over and smiled at Ling Xiao.
The young man in front of him also surprised him. Ling Shao, whom Jiao Mu valued so much, was indeed not an ordinary person.
Especially when Jiao Mu said that the Five Mysterious Spirit Pills, Six Mysterious Spirit Pills and Seven Mysterious Treasure Pills were all taken out by Ling Xiao, he was even more shocked.
"Thank you for helping me, Immortal! Ling Xiao will definitely come and bother you when he has time!"
Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said that he was a little surprised that True Man Chunyang could come, but this was definitely due to Jiao Mu's credit.
Zhenren Chunyang exchanged greetings with Lingxiao and then left.
Jiao Mu and Ling Xiao smiled at each other. There were many people around at this time, so Jiao Mu did not say anything. Instead, he took everyone to take care of Meng Ao and Liu Xiongfei.
The two of them had been seriously injured while resisting He Qing, and were now protected by the armored soldiers of the Huben Camp.
Just as Ling Xiao was about to leave, an old voice sounded.
"Master Ling, my master wants to see you!"
On the carriage, the old man who was driving the carriage came over with a smile and said to Ling Xiao.
