Divine Seal: Reborn Taotie, adopted by the Devil of Love

Chapter 168 Future Demon Emperor Candidate
"What's wrong? You don't seem to be in a good mood..."

After Lin Ze came out of Xidi's training ground, Leng Xiao looked at Lin Ze's expression and subconsciously asked him a question.

"fine."

Seeing Leng Xiao's worried expression, Lin Ze subconsciously took Leng Xiao's hand, then looked at Bai Yue and said, "Sister Bai Yue, I'm entrusting Xidi to your care."

Hearing Lin Ze's calm tone and how he addressed Xidi, the three of them were taken aback.

What happened? Why does Lin Ze suddenly seem to have changed?

They had never heard Lin Ze call Sidi by his name before.

Although Bai Yue was a little curious, she still agreed, saying, "Don't worry, Xidi is very safe with me..."

"Okay, Xiaoxiao, Yue'er, let's go."

After saying that, Lin Ze pulled Leng Xiao and walked outside.

Watching the two leave, Yueye was also stunned for a moment, then looked at Baiyue and said, "Well, I wasn't supposed to go with this guy either..."

Bai Yue chuckled and said, "So you're not going?"

Moonlight gave a soft hum and hurriedly followed.

Actually, she had originally planned to go with Lin Ze, but Lin Ze's sudden statement made Yueye feel a bit strange.

In the past, when Lin Ze faced certain issues, he would often consult his sister Yue.

It's rare for me to give her direct orders like this.

uh~
That scoundrel Lin Ze actually dared to give me orders directly!
……

……

After leaving Bai Yue's palace, Lin Ze led Leng Xiao and Yue Ye all the way to the chaotic land that the Star Demon God Vasak had mentioned.

The chaotic land has been covered by lava for many years, and solidified, blackened lava can be seen everywhere on the ground.

However, there is still a lot of lava, like streams, filling the entire chaotic land.

It is precisely because of the existence of these magma layers that the entire chaotic land is almost completely barren.

Looking around, even the sky is perpetually shrouded in flame ash.

It gives people a very oppressive feeling.

Four streaks of light streaked across the sky above the chaotic land.

These four people are Lin Ze, Leng Xiao, Yue Ye, and Lin Ze's six-winged spirit Xiao An, who is both light and darkness.

The four individuals are respectively: Yueye at the peak of the seventh rank, Leng Xiao at the fourth level of the eighth rank, Xiao An who shares spiritual power with Lin Ze with the help of the blood pact, and Lin Ze at the fifth level of the eighth rank.

Originally, Star Demon God Vasak wanted to arrange for some demons to accompany Lin Ze, but Lin Ze refused them all.

Sending out some weaker demons would more than double the travel time.

Lin Ze, who was flying ahead, scanned the area below and finally locked his gaze on a group of strange-looking magical beasts.

At this moment, Leng Xiao, who was standing nearby, also saw it and subconsciously asked, "What kind of magical beast is that? It looks so strange. Its body is clearly made of trees, but it's burning with flames all over its body?"

Lin Ze said, "Those are Flame Nether Beasts. They have a natural resistance to fire, and their bodies can also nurture a relatively rare mineral called 'Heart of Molten Fire'."

"The Heart of Molten Core? Isn't that the key Vasak mentioned for opening the ruins?"

"Yes, so we need to collect enough Molten Cores first. According to the map, we're not far from the Ancient Ruins. Let's split up and collect enough Molten Cores, and then meet up here."

Under Lin Ze's command, the four of them split up and began to collect enough Molten Cores.

Most of these Flame Nether Beasts were around the fifth rank in strength. Against the strength of Lin Ze and his group, a single group attack would be enough to kill a large number of them.

These Flame Nether Beasts were virtually powerless against Lin Ze and his companions. In less than an hour, the four of them had reaped a bountiful harvest.

……

……

at the same time.

Inside the Demon Emperor's Palace.

Star Demon God Vasak and Demon God Emperor Fengxiu are here.

Star Demon God Vasak said with some concern, "Brother, Wise Demon God Guxin has always been at odds with Love Demon God Xidi. Back then, Xidi cut off one of Guxin's arms and humiliated him in front of a group of demon gods. Lin Ze will probably face considerable setbacks if he takes the Demon God Pillar to find him."

Demon Emperor Feng Xiu lay languidly on the throne, swirling the wine cup in his hand, and said, "Third brother, you already know, why ask again?"

"Brother is joking, Third Brother really doesn't quite understand."

The Demon Emperor did not expose Vasak's respectful attitude towards him, nor did he want Vasak to constantly try to guess his thoughts.

Seeing this, Feng Xiu slowly said, "Although none of the demon gods said anything about Lin Ze and Xiao Xiao's marriage at the time, they must have had some objections. I am naturally aware of the grudge between the Wise Demon God Gu Xin and the Love Demon God Xi Di. It just so happens that Lin Ze needs to establish his authority through a battle, and the Wise Demon God Gu Xin is a good choice..."

"Your Majesty, isn't it a bit premature? Lin Ze is only at the fifth level of the eighth rank. Although he can reach a terrifying level through some secret techniques, the Wise Demon God Gu Xin has controlled the Wise Demon God Pillar for hundreds of years, and the weapons he possesses are countless. I'm afraid..."

"Heh, if he can't even defeat the Twelve Pillars, then I shouldn't place any high hopes on him."

“Vasak, you should know better than anyone else that if Lin Ze really wants to integrate into the demon race, he must first gain the approval of the other demon gods.”

"In the demon race, strength is far more useful than words."

"Otherwise, even if I intend to make him a candidate for the next Demon God Emperor, he will not be able to gain the approval of the other Demon Gods. Even if I insist on doing things my own way, I will not be able to convince the masses."

"what!"

Upon hearing Demon Emperor Fengxiu's words, Vasak immediately stood up in terror.

She exclaimed in horror, "Big brother, you plan to hand over the demon race to Lin Ze!"

Looking at Vasak's excited face, Demon Emperor Fengxiu chuckled and said, "It's clear that you really didn't dare to think of this."

Demon God Emperor Feng continued, "If he truly has the ability to prolong the existence of the demon race for a thousand years, why not give it to him? It just so happens that because of the demon race, I've been delaying some promises that should have been fulfilled..."

As he said this, a rare hint of tenderness appeared in the eyes of Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu.

Seeing the Demon God Emperor Fengxiu in such a state, the Star Demon God Vasak shook his head helplessly.

He understood what the Demon God Emperor Fengxiu was thinking.

It must be said that the Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu was also a devoted lover. He married a human woman and they had a daughter named Bai Yue.

Bai Yue's mother, Bai Lingxuan, who is also the wife of the Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu, used all her power to completely purify the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon bloodline in Bai Yue's body in order to completely erase it.

The goal was to ensure that Bai Yue could live as a normal person after she was born.

However, Bai Lingxuan also died because her original essence was damaged.

Feng Xiu even considered destroying his own body to search for Bai Lingxuan's soul in spirit form, but as the current Demon Emperor, he could not do so.

He bears the future of the entire demon race on his shoulders.

But things are different now. He used to hope that Abao could shoulder heavy responsibilities, but unfortunately Abao couldn't.

However, if Lin Ze were truly willing to live and die with the demons, then the demons would reach unprecedented heights!
