735: 732 735: 732 Not long after Liu Yilong had left, Huang Xiaolong was pondering the matters concerning the tenth underground level of the Vermilion Bird Book Library when He Jing ca over, informing him that Wood was looking for him.
Without giving it much thought, Huang Xiaolong followed He Jing and left Thunder Fire Peak, heading to Wood’s Prison Kill Peak.
“To Golden Mountain Realm?” Upon seeing Wood, and after Wood proposed that Huang Xiaolong should go to the Golden Mountain Realm, Huang Xiaolong was taken aback.
Wood nodded, “This ti the Demon Clan has attacked the Golden Mountain Realm, and the Mansion Master has decreed that anyone who goes there and kills mbers of the Demon Clan shall receive one hundred rits for a Divine Domain First Stage, and one thousand rits for a Second Stage.
The rits are several tis higher than previous tasks.
And you have broken through to the Seventh Stage for several years now; your realm should be stable.
This ti, you can conveniently complete the task of becoming an elder, and ascend to the position of an elder!”
Becoming an elder at Vermilion Bird Academy as an elite disciple is not the sa as at Xuanwu Academy, where rely breaking through to the Seventh Stage would suffice.
To ascend to the status of an elder at Vermilion Bird Academy, aside from breaking through to the Seventh Stage, one must personally hunt down ten Divine Domain Seventh Stage demon beasts.
“However, you can rest assured, this ti, I will have your eldest disciple brother and second disciple brother go with you.
With the presence of your eldest and second disciple brothers, there won’t be any danger,” Wood added, seeing Huang Xiaolong lost in thought.
“Yes, Master,” Huang Xiaolong nodded in agreent.
He was about to enter the tenth underground level of the Vermilion Bird Book Library and needed the status of an elder.
Given this, he would make a trip to the Golden Mountain Realm and complete the task of becoming an elder.
Although he could bribe the elder in charge of the tenth level with Divine-grade Divine Stones, even without the status of an elder, this was not a one-off matter.
In ti, doing this repeatedly would inevitably attract attention and raise suspicion.
So, having the status of an elder would be far more convenient.
After all, for Huang Xiaolong at this mont, hunting ten Divine Domain Seventh Stage demon beasts was like child’s play.
Thus, the matter was settled.
The next day, Huang Xiaolong followed Wood’s second disciple He Jing and eldest disciple Fang Hengning as they left the Vermilion Bird Academy and headed to the Golden Mountain Realm.
Fang Hengning, Wood’s eldest disciple, was an extrely tall and sturdy middle-aged man, with a waist as wide as a bear’s, and thighs so large that Huang Xiaolong guessed they were twice the size of an ordinary person’s.
Huang Xiaolong had a good relationship with Wood’s second disciple He Jing, but his relationship with Fang Hengning was not very good.
Upon seeing Huang Xiaolong, Fang Hengning’s expression was neither cold nor warm.
Huang Xiaolong didn’t mind.
Considering Zeng Huai’an’s previous character, it was normal for Fang Hengning to act this way toward him.
The Golden Mountain Realm was not close to the Vermilion Bird World; it took Huang Xiaolong and the two others more than a dozen days of traveling through Transmission Arrays and flying to reach the Golden Mountain Realm.
On the way, He Jing told Huang Xiaolong about the current situation in the Golden Mountain Realm.
This ti the Demon Clan attacked the Golden Mountain Realm, not only did Vermilion Bird Academy send support, but other super forces of the Vermilion Bird Star River, and even many first-class forces sent their disciples to assist the Golden Mountain Realm.
So now, with Vermilion Bird Academy at the forefront, a Demon Slaying Alliance had been ford.
After arriving in the Golden Mountain Realm, Huang Xiaolong and the others went directly to the headquarters of the Demon Slaying Alliance.
But what Huang Xiaolong did not expect was that upon entering the headquarters of the Demon Slaying Alliance, he saw Liang Guang.
Apart from Liang Guang, there was also Liang Guang’s elder disciple brother Yu Ze present.
The Demon Slaying Alliance had five major directors who managed all the affairs of the alliance, and Yu Ze was one of the five.
Of course, with Fang Hengning’s arrival, he too was made one of the directors, becoming one of the six.
Upon seeing Huang Xiaolong, Liang Guang was surprised, but then a thick murderous intent flashed through his eyes, even though it was only for a mont, Huang Xiaolong still caught it.
With a calm expression, Huang Xiaolong sneered inwardly, hoping that Liang Guang would know his place.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t mind playing along, toying with him to death, and saving himself the endless trouble later on.
After Huang Xiaolong and the others arrived, Yu Ze and the others explained the situation of the Golden Mountain Realm to them in detail.
Just a few days ago, they had managed to repel an attack from the Demon Clan.
However, many experts from the Demon Clan had infiltrated every corner of the Golden Mountain Realm, so from ti to ti, there were reports of villages, towns, and even small cities of the Human Clan being annihilated.
Now, the priority was to find these Demon Clan infiltrators and eliminate them one by one.
Otherwise, the hidden dangers were nurous.
Huang Xiaolong and the other two were arranged to reside at the alliance headquarters’ courtyard.
Currently, they could only wait for the alliance to locate these Demon Clan experts before Huang Xiaolong could join the others and besiege them.
Thus, two days passed.
With nothing happening in those two days, Huang Xiaolong stayed inside the alliance headquarters to cultivate.
On the third day, soone from the alliance ca to tell Huang Xiaolong that a group of Demon Clan experts had appeared in a northern city of the Golden Mountain Realm.
There were more than twenty people, all experts at the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Stages of the Divine Domain.
They asked Huang Xiaolong to head to the Great Hall.
When Huang Xiaolong arrived at the Great Hall, He Jing, Fang Hengning, Yu Ze, Liang Guang, and many other alliance masters were present.
Everyone was discussing this matter.
“I think we should not delay.
We must send soone over as soon as possible to encircle and annihilate those Demon Clan experts,” Yu Ze said.
Fang Hengning and the other several directors nodded their heads, and what followed was the question of who to send and how many people to send.
Eventually, everyone decided to have He Jing, a Middle Stage Eighth Order expert, and another Early Stage Eighth Order expert from the Fu Family, Fu Qian, lead an alliance group of Sixth and Seventh Rank experts over there.
In total, thirty-two people.
Among the thirty-two, Huang Xiaolong and Liang Guang were also on the list.
In the view of Fang Hengning, Yu Ze, and others, with He Jing, Fu Qian, Huang Xiaolong, Liang Guang, and the thirty-two people going, they were more than enough to wipe out those Demon Clan experts cleanly.
After all, the intelligence they received indicated that the most powerful of those Demon Clan experts was only at the Early Stage of the Seventh Rank.
At once, Huang Xiaolong and the others left the alliance headquarters and headed for that northern city in the Golden Mountain Realm.
Half a day later, Huang Xiaolong and the others finally arrived at the aforentioned city.
However, upon arrival and seeing the city that had been turned into ruins, reeking of a thick scent of blood, and realizing that group of Demon Clan experts had disappeared without a trace, everyone’s brows furrowed tightly.
“Let’s go in and look,” He Jing said, his face grim.
As Huang Xiaolong and the others flew over the city, they saw corpses everywhere on the streets below, including those of won, children, and the elderly, as well as soldiers of the city and the corpses of family disciples.
So were dismbered, so had empty cavities where their livers had been.
“These demons are utterly inhuman!” Fu Qian couldn’t help but exclaim angrily; even though they were accustod to seeing life and death, they still found the ans of the Demon Clan to be particularly cruel.
Huang Xiaolong’s eyebrows rose sharply.
According to the alliance’s intelligence, the defense strength of this city was not weak.
So of the city’s families also had nurous experts at the Initial and Middle Stages of the Divine Domain.
It wasn’t possible for that group of Demon Clan experts to breach the city so quickly and annihilate everyone before they arrived, unless—
Huang Xiaolong thought of a possibility.
That is, the strength of these Demon Clan experts was definitely not as simple as being at the Fifth, Sixth, or Seventh Rank.
He Jing, Fu Qian, and the others apparently ca to this realization as well.
“Let’s head back!” He Jing made a decision in an instant.
Just as everyone was about to leave, suddenly, a cry for help from a child ca from ahead.
