"Greetings to His Majesty, the Canglong Demon Ruler!"0 The disciples, elders, and even the Canglong Envoys of the Canglong Sanctum bowed low.0 Within the sanctum, the Canglong Demon Ruler stood as the supreme authority and the most exalted presence.0 His expression was calm and deep, like an ancient well. His gaze swept over the gathered crowd before finally resting on a young man standing behind Bai Su.0 From aura alone, this youth radiated a Chaotic Scent from head to toe, resembling the legendary Chaotic Beast. 0 Had the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor not revealed in advance that Ling Feng was in fact a human general, Canglong Demon Ruler might never have guessed that this outstanding "demon" disciple was human.0 "Thank you, Your Majesty!"0 ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹~𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮~𝚗𝚎𝚝 The eight Canglong Envoys rose first. The elders, enshrined protectors, and disciples followed in turn. This was a formal commendation ceremony, and the one in the spotlight today was Long Fei, the genius disciple of the Purple Dragon Hall.0 Purple Dragon Envoy glanced back at Ling Feng with an encouraging smile.0 Ling Feng's lips twitched slightly. He wondered if he should wait until Canglong Demon Ruler had imparted some divine skills before bringing up the matter of the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor. 0 After all, one more ability never hurt.0 However, he did not realize that danger had already closed in.0 At last, Canglong Demon Ruler spoke.0 "Purple Dragon Envoy, I hear the genius who swept aside the other two demon sanctums on behalf of my Canglong Sanctum comes from your hall?"0 "Yes, Your Majesty!"0 Purple Dragon Envoy stepped forward with a smile, pulling Ling Feng ahead. "His name is Long Fei. He is a newly admitted disciple of my Purple Dragon Hall, and I intend to make him my direct disciple."0 Canglong Demon Ruler's eyes locked on Ling Feng. His tone was calm and deliberate. "So that is your name?"0 Ling Feng stood tall, meeting Canglong Demon Ruler's gaze without arrogance or submission.0 "A bold young man indeed."0 Canglong Demon Ruler's praise eased the Purple Dragon Envoy's tension. It seemed Long Fei had made a good impression.0 "I dare not accept such praise," Ling Feng replied modestly.0 "Dare not? Is there anything that General Weiyuan would not dare to do?"0 A faint gleam passed through Canglong Demon Ruler's eyes. "I hear you have another name... Ling Feng, is it not?"0 Ling Feng's pupils contracted. He forced himself to remain calm. "From where did Your Majesty hear such a thing?"0 "Still unwilling to admit it?"0 Canglong Demon Ruler clapped his hands and laughed. "Allow me to introduce a few old acquaintances. Perhaps they will help you remember. Human general, Ling Feng."0 From behind the palace emerged four figures: Silver Wolf Demon Emperor, Silver Serpent Enchantress, Demon-Masked Lord, and Blood Sword Heavenly Lord.0 Ling Feng felt as if struck by lightning.0 Even when he had met the Blood Sword Heavenly Lord on Yanming Sea Island, the man had only known him as Ling Feng. Silver Wolf Demon Emperor had only known him as Long Fei. 0 How had these two separate identities been linked?2 He could not have guessed that in order to connect them, Silver Wolf Demon Emperor had gone so far as to kill his own offspring. 0 That hatred had now been laid squarely at Ling Feng's feet.0 "Well, Long Fei? Or should I call you Ling Feng?"0 Canglong Demon Ruler studied him with unshaken calm. "Have you anything to say?"0 "Ling Feng, you never saw this coming, did you?" Silver Wolf Demon Emperor's voice was heavy with hatred. "You thought your scheme would succeed? Nothing escapes the sacred judgment of His Majesty Canglong Demon Ruler!"0 Demon-Masked Lord and Blood Sword Heavenly Lord glared at him with icy malice. Surrounded by such enemies and in the presence of Canglong Demon Ruler himself, even three heads and six arms could not have saved him from today's calamity.0 The disciples of the Canglong Sanctum were stunned.0 "What is this? Long Fei is human?"0 "Human? Impossible. There was no sign of it."0 Purple Dragon Envoy stared at Ling Feng in disbelief. She could see nothing but a pure-blooded demon.0 "No. That cannot be right."0 Bai Linger shook her head, gripping Ling Feng's arm. Her voice trembled as she forced out the words. "Long Fei, tell me it is not true. You are a demon. You are from the Northern Demon Domain. You can even show your demonic beast form... do it now and prove it!"0 In her heart, Long Fei's identity had become irreplaceable. To be told it was false was something she could not accept.0 "I am sorry, young lady. I am indeed human."0 Ling Feng sighed and gently pried her hand away. He exchanged a glance with Mu Qianxue and gave a slight shake of his head, telling her not to act rashly.0 His identity was exposed, but no one suspected hers. From the moment Silver Wolf Demon Emperor appeared, he had known there was no way to deny it any longer.0 At his words, the disciples of the Purple Dragon Hall retreated several paces, fearful of being implicated.0 A mocking laugh cut through the tense air.0 "So he is human. Interesting! Let us see if you can still act so arrogantly."0 The Red Dragon Hall Master, Chi Huo, looked on with cold amusement, certain Ling Feng's fate would be far worse than that of his head disciple, Chi Gui.0 Ling Feng drew a deep breath and turned toward the Canglong Demon Ruler. His heart was steady now.0 His identity was revealed, yet Canglong Demon Ruler had not ordered his death. There was still room to speak.0 "Your Majesty, it is true that I am human. But I entered the Canglong Sanctum not to scheme against it. On the contrary, I came to expose one!"0 He stood straight and spoke firmly. "A scheme connected to the death of the Qiongqi Demon Emperor!"0 Silver Wolf Demon Emperor roared. "Lowly human, what right have you to speak before His Majesty?"0 "The impudent one is you!"0 Ling Feng's gaze sharpened. "His Majesty has not spoken. Who do you think you are? Do you believe yourself greater than Canglong Demon Ruler, or are you afraid I might reveal something that will damage you, Demon Emperor?"0 Silver Wolf Demon Emperor clenched his fists and turned toward Canglong Demon Ruler. "Your Majesty, humans are deceitful and treacherous by nature. Hand him over to me and I will make him confess his true purpose!"0 "There is no need to be hasty."0 Canglong Demon Ruler lifted a hand. "He would not dare to lie before me. Speak, human boy. I too wish to hear the truth about the Qiongqi Demon Emperor's death."0 Ling Feng's heart eased. It seemed Canglong Demon Ruler's prejudice against humans was not as deep as he had feared. At the very least, he was a ruler capable of discernment.0
