The ancestral land of the half-demons is located in the Demon State among the three thousand states in the Heavenly Court. It was not originally called this name, but since many half-demons came across the demon world, they settled here. Over time, it became the Demon State.
It is also the largest gathering place for the half-demons, and half-demons that look very different from humans can be seen almost everywhere.
In Yaozhou, the Jin family's ancestral home, Pengwang City has been extremely lively in recent days.
Many geniuses who came at the invitation of Jin Che, the young master of the Jin family, brought with them many admirers and followers, as well as many visitors who came upon hearing the news, making Pengwang City even more lively.
In Pengwang City, in Jin Che's own manor, there were many powerful masters with strong cultivation. The Golden Immortal masters, who were rarely seen in normal days, were everywhere.
Many people were gathered in groups of three or five. Among them was a girl in a golden dress who was followed by some people, all of whom were powerful men with the cultivation level of Golden Immortal.
"Princess Xirui, I heard that your brother just passed through your clan's trial ground and just came out recently. Is that true or not?" someone asked.
The girl had fair skin and golden eyes, and was extremely beautiful.
She glanced at the man with her beautiful eyes and said, "Not bad!"
"It's really amazing. I heard that even in your Jin family, few people can pass this trial ground!"
"That's right, like sister, like brother. Her Highness the Princess has an amazing level of cultivation, and so does her brother!"
Everyone echoed.
The eyes of many people in the distance also swept over.
"Is that Jin Xirui? She is known as one of the ten most beautiful women in Yaozhou. Her cultivation is earth-shattering and incredible!"
Some people's eyes were very eager. Jin Xirui was the eldest daughter of the Immortal King of the Jin family, and also the eldest sister of Jin Che, who had recently become famous all over the world.
Even compared to Jin Che, Jin Xirui's reputation is even greater. After all, Jin Xirui has been famous for a longer time, far longer than Jin Che.
Because of her beauty and strength, Jin Xirui has many suitors and admirers.
Especially since she has a powerful royal family like the Jin family behind her, her worth has doubled.
"I heard that this time, even Lu Xuan will come?" someone asked. "I heard that Prince Jin Che was defeated by him last time. This time, Prince Jin Che has gone through the trial and his strength has become much stronger. It's just right for him to avenge his previous defeat!"
Many people nodded in agreement. When they found out that Lu Xuan was on the guest list this time, many people couldn't help but think that Jin Che wanted to take revenge.
After all, this is a very normal idea among young geniuses. Young geniuses are in a period of rapid growth in strength. A temporary failure does not mean a lifetime failure.
Just because you failed ten years ago doesn’t mean you can’t win ten years later.
Changes in strength often surprise countless people.
At the Heavenly Court Talent Selection Ceremony ten years ago, Lu Xuan had indeed displayed astonishing strength, but that was only relative to his peers. None of the Golden Immortals present were lower than the middle stage of the Golden Immortal Realm, and most of them were even in the late stage of the Golden Immortal Realm, and there were quite a few who were even at the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm.
The strength they possess gives them the confidence to comment on Lu Xuan!
A youngster was not enough for them to take him too seriously. In their eyes, if Lu Xuan and Jin Che's generation wanted to be on an equal footing, they would have to wait for at least several decades or even hundreds of years, or even longer.
In response, Jin Xirui just smiled and shook her head without saying anything more.
"It's just that when there's no tiger in the mountain, the monkey claims to be king!"
At this time, a cold voice was heard.
"The Taixu Pavilion is nothing more than a paper tiger now. It won't be long before it is kicked out of the first-class faction. Who will support him then? He will be nothing more than a piece of grass!"
When everyone looked, they saw a man with a pair of huge wings on his back. The man had a cold face, his words were sinister, and there was murderous aura coming from him.
Someone recognized him. He was a strong man from the Feathered Clan among the half-demon clan. It was said that his ancestor was also a demon bird in the demon world, and was also very powerful. This could not be compared with the blood of the Golden-winged Roc clan flowing in the Jin family's body.
However, they are also a very prominent clan in the demon world!
This clan is also a very powerful clan in the Demon State, and there is more than one powerful Daluo Jinxian in the clan.
However, those who know this clan naturally understand why this man from the Feathered Clan would target Lu Xuan so much. In fact, he was not targeting Lu Xuan, but Taixu Pavilion.
Because the Feathered People were originally a large clan that served the demon world, and the reason they later joined the heavenly world was simply because they were defeated and nearly wiped out in one battle.
Once upon a time, the Feathered People were a powerful royal family that possessed powerful Immortal Kings, and were also very prominent in the demon world. However, later on, the Feathered People were nearly wiped out in a great war, and finally had to surrender as a whole clan and join the heavens.
That battle was presided over by Immortal King Taixu, and it was Immortal King Taixu who killed the Immortal King of the Feathered People, breaking the backbone of the Feathered People in one fell swoop.
Therefore, although the Feathered Clan surrendered, they also hated the Immortal King Taixu deeply. While the Immortal King Taixu was still alive, they did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on their faces.
However, as Immortal King Taixu disappeared for many years and may even have fallen, the conflicts between the Feathered Clan and Taixu Pavilion became increasingly intense, and they even quarreled several times at the Heavenly Court Conference.
The Feathered Clan is also one of the alliances targeting the Taixu Pavilion, and they are actively pushing behind the scenes to kick the Taixu Pavilion out of the ranks of first-class factions.
If it really succeeds, without the right to allocate resources as a first-class faction, Taixu Pavilion will decline at the fastest speed.
After all, resources are the foundation for a faction's long-term existence.
The hatred between the two sides was formed many years ago, so no one would find it strange that a strong man from the Feathered People said such words.
However, many people were also surprised. What this strong man from the Feathered People said might not be impossible to be true. Taixu Pavilion is too weak now. Even if it does not count the powerful Immortal King, it is still much weaker than other first-class factions.
Because there is no powerful Immortal King in charge, the ability to attract geniuses to join is greatly weakened.
Over time, even if the enemy does nothing, Taixu Pavilion will automatically weaken. This is the role of a top-level strong man as a sacrifice.
In the eyes of many people, Lu Xuan's joining may extend the life of Taixu Pavilion by 100,000 years in the future.
It is precisely because of this that there is no doubt that Lu Xuan has become a thorn in the eyes of many forces that are eyeing Taixu Pavilion.
"Weeds? Yuhao, he is the champion of this year's Heavenly Court Talent Competition. Who do you think you are? Are you qualified to judge him?"
Suddenly, a clear and pleasant voice came from the crowd.
