After a long time, the sea was finally calm.
The figure of Danhai Demon Lord Duan Huiyao appeared beside Duan Huiye.
"Can't you keep it?"
Duan Huiyao said.
Duan Huiye shook his head lightly: "The two of us are too close in strength to decide the winner."
"Is that so..."
Duan Huiyao nodded.
"Next, he and I, whoever first fuses the two sources of the world and comprehends the source of the myriad worlds, will win the next match."
Duan Huiye said: "The next time we fight, if I win, then he will die. If he wins..."
"At that time, not only I will be slaughtered by him personally, but the entire Duan clan may be slaughtered by him. Wansheng Prefecture may return to the era of division, and the flames of war will rage."
Duan Huiye's eyes narrowed slightly.
"After so many years, he still hasn't let go of his hatred?"
Duan Huiyao frowned.
Although he in that era was far less dazzling than Duan Huiye and Yu Zhiyin, and his friendship was not as deep as they were at that time, but he and Yu Zhiyin were still friends.
It's just that as the relationship between Duan Huiye and Yu Zhiyin broke, Duan Huiyao and Yu Zhiyin no longer have any contact.
"When is the next fight?"
Duan Huiyao asked.
"It can be as fast as three years, and as slow as a hundred years."
Duan Huiye said: "It depends on who first comprehends the origin of the myriad worlds."
"Um… "
Duan Huiyao glanced at the calm Duan Huiye and knew that the future of the entire Duan clan was in the hands of Duan Huiye alone.
"Let's go back to Wansheng State."
Duan Huiye said: "It is a great achievement to confirm Yu Zhiyin's status this time. He has been hiding in the shadows before, and this time at least he has found out part of his details."
"Next, you quickly choose the successor of Danhai Demon Sect. After a year, the true source will be restored, and you will enter the outer world again."
"understood."
Duan Huiyao nodded.
…
Time flies.
Four months passed.
Xu Ning and his party finally returned to Wansheng Prefecture.
In addition to them, the other two fleets also returned back and forth, and they also won big victories.
"General Xu, lieutenants, please leave now."
After arriving in Wansheng Prefecture, Xu Ning, Yu Qiao and Xu Qian said goodbye.
Previously, the performance of Xu Ning and Yu Qiao also won the attention of Xu Qian and the respect of the lieutenants.
When returning to the voyage, Xu Ning also stayed on the center warship for a long time, getting along with Xu Qian and others.
"When the succession of Danhai Demon Sect is over, you can come to the imperial capital to find me."
Xu Qian invited.
"Okay, General Xu."
Xu Ning and Yu Qiao responded.
For Xu Qian, the two also respected him a lot.
Xu Qian is not only powerful, but also has a high status. He is not only a general of the court, but also a half disciple of the great master.
After a brief exchange, the two parties separated.
This time Xu Qian's fleet had a total of forty-one seeds from the Pill Sea Demon Sect accompanying them, and eight of them died in the battle.
Although this death rate is acceptable, every seed is an elite of the Danhai Demon Sect, so the Danhai Demon Sect also suffered a lot of losses.
But for these losses, Lord Danhai had already expected it.
From his point of view, this is also perfectly acceptable.
After the two sides parted, the court troops returned to the imperial capital, while Xu Ning and his party returned to Danhai Demon Sect.
However, more than thirty seeds did not return together, but in twos and threes.
Although they are both seeds, their personal relationship is not very close, and right now, it is time to wait for the evaluation of military achievements and determine the future status of the sect, and they are all competitors.
In contrast, Xu Ning and Yu Qiao, the two most competitive people, got along very well, and they returned to Danhai Demon Sect together.
With the in-depth communication, Xu Ning's previous sense of alienation from Yu Qiao also melted a lot.
"Brother Xu, you're back!"
As soon as Xu Ning returned to the island of Danhai Demon Sect, Gu Songying came to meet him.
He, Xu Ning's big butler, is also extremely competent.
"Brother Gu."
Xu Ning and Yu Qiao parted ways and returned to their hut at the foot of the mountain.
Seeing that Xu Ning returned safely, Gu Songying also heaved a sigh of relief.
He was also a little worried that something unexpected would happen to Xu Ning during this operation.
"Brother Xu, everything is going well?"
Gu Songying asked.
"There were some twists and turns, but overall it was fine."
Xu Ning responded: "My performance should be pretty good."
"That's good!"
When Gu Songying heard this, she suddenly felt relieved.
Xu Ning is a humble person. Since he said that, it means that he must have performed very well in the assessment.
In this way, there is great hope for Xu Ning to be an elder of the sect.
And Gu Songying herself will also benefit from her relationship with Xu Ning.
In the next few days, Xu Ning has been resting and recuperating. After running around for a long time, Xu Ning is also a little tired.
Finally, this day.
A disciple came to find Xu Ning and asked him to go to Dao Xin Peak to gather, saying that the suzerain Danhai Demon Lord sent an order to summon him.
Xu Ning left immediately.
When they arrived at Dao Xin Peak, Xu Ning found that besides himself, there were five other people who had arrived earlier.
Among them, Xu Ning knew Yu Qiao and Duan Chaomian.
The other three people, although they had some impressions, did not have a close relationship with them.
"Are the six of us the best six who were initially selected..."
Xu Ning also had some guesses in his mind.
Then, several people waited for a while.
Suddenly, a burst of black mist flashed over Daoxin Peak.
Afterwards, Duan Huiyao, the demon king of Danhai, appeared on Daoxin Peak.
"Meet the suzerain!"
The six bowed in unison.
"The six of you performed extremely well in this operation to wipe out the Sanyin faction."
Duan Huiyao said: "Next, the six of you will also have the final competition. Among them, the one with the best performance will inherit the position of suzerain of the Pill Sea Demon Sect, while the remaining five will be awarded the status of sect elders and substitutes. Get rid of the outgoing digital elders."
As soon as these words came out, the hearts of the six people moved.
Regardless of the final result of the competition, the six of them can at least obtain the status of an elder.
"In the next six months, you will conduct the last assessment. I am still discussing the content of the assessment with the other elders. I will notify you within half a month."
Duan Huiyao said: "Besides, you have made military exploits, and the imperial court also rewarded you."
With that said, Duan Huiyao threw out six storage rings and landed in front of everyone.
"Among these storage rings, there are resource rewards from the imperial court for you, as well as supplementary rewards from the sect."
Duan Huiyao said: "The amount of resources in this storage ring is not the same. Among them, Xu Ning, you have the most rewards. When Xu Qianqian reported it, he gave you a very high evaluation. Moreover, your record is indeed strong enough to be captured alive. One of the elders of the Sanyin Sect who is at the ninth level of Dao Realm."
"You performed well, don't let Xu Qian down next time."
In front of other people, Duan Huiyao praised Xu Ning alone.
