#408 - Chapter 416 The Secret of Fairy Lingxi

The Imperial Palace.

Located on Nine Lotus Immortal Mountain, one of the thirty-six blessed lands.

The entire immortal mountain resembles a blooming lotus flower.

At the heart of the lotus lies a magnificent palace.

The surrounding peaks, like lotus leaves, form a powerful array, protecting the娲皇 Palace.

At this moment, Immortal Lingxi is dressed in a beautiful red dress.

She is about to be sent to Heavenly Phoenix Mountain to marry Kong Xuan, the son of the Heavenly Phoenix.

"I wonder if Senior Sister can persuade Jiang Ning?"

Immortal Lingxi looked worried and anxious.

She didn't want to marry Kong Xuan at all.

However, she couldn't disobey her master's orders, and she couldn't defy the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor's decision.

Therefore, she took the initiative to find Qing Nü and asked her for help.

In fact, she was asking Jiang Ning for help.

After all, in today's Immortal Realm, only Jiang Ning dares to attack the Heavenly Phoenix.

You must know that the Heavenly Phoenix's status in the demon race is even higher and stronger than that of the Xuan Ancestor.

Its strength is comparable to that of an invincible Dao Ancestor among humans.

Along with the Dragon Ancestor and the Qilin Ancestor, it is known as the strongest existence of the demon race.

After the Dragon Ancestor and the Qilin Ancestor fell.

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor has actually become the supreme and sole master of the demon race.

"Lingxi, this is your fate."

"Don't think too much, prepare to depart, and we'll send you to Heavenly Phoenix Mountain."

At this time, Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes entered the boudoir.

Looking at Immortal Lingxi's unhappy face, she sighed softly.

"Master, the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor is the supreme and unparalleled master of the demon race."

"If she wants to find a wife for her daughter, what kind of proud daughter of heaven can't she find? Why did she designate me from a young age?"

Immortal Lingxi expressed her doubts.

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor's identity is too high, and she doesn't think there is anything special about her that is worth her personally descending to personally arrange this marriage for her son.

Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes shook her head, "As for why the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor took a fancy to you, this teacher really doesn't know."

"Master, I don't want to go to Heavenly Phoenix Mountain and marry Kong Xuan."

Immortal Lingxi mustered up the courage to resist.

With a forceful tug, she tore off the wedding dress on her body.

Revealing a white dress, elegant and beautiful.

She was unwilling to submit to fate in this way.

She was unwilling to have her fate decided by others just after she was born.

She wanted to resist.

"You..."

"What are you doing? Quickly put on the wedding dress."

Seeing this, Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes was furious and scolded.

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor is not someone they can resist.

If Lingxi resists the marriage, the entire 娲皇 Palace may be destroyed, and she will never allow such a thing to happen.

"Master, I don't want to submit to fate like this, I am unwilling."

Immortal Lingxi said with a painful expression.

"Iniquity, this is not a fate you can resist."

"You should obediently accept your fate."

"Besides, the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor is the master of the demon race. Marrying Kong Xuan and having her protection is not a bad thing."

"The great calamity of heaven and earth is approaching, and all saints and gods will be reduced to ashes… There must be strong protection to have a glimmer of hope to survive."

Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes persuaded.

If Immortal Lingxi marries Kong Xuan, the 娲皇 Palace will be able to obtain the protection of the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor.

No one can stop this marriage, no matter who it is.

"Even if I die, I am unwilling to bow my head to fate."

After thinking for a moment, the spirit fairy's eyes became extremely firm.

"You... you rebellious disciple, you must marry, whether you want to or not, you can't resist."

Seeing Immortal Lingxi so stubborn and not listening to her advice, Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes was obviously very angry.

"Master, why make things difficult for Junior Sister?"

"Although the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor is strong, when darkness descends, she will not be able to protect herself, let alone protect the 娲皇 Palace?"

At this time, Qing Nü and Jiang Ning arrived at the 娲皇 Palace.

"Jiang Ning!"

When Immortal Lingxi saw Jiang Ning coming, her eyes lit up, and she became very excited and happy for some reason.

This man, whom she hated so much, now became very close.

"Heavenly Emperor… why is he here?"

Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes' expression changed, and then she saluted and said, "Greetings, Heavenly Emperor."

Her voice was stiff and without any emotion.

Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes had no good feelings for Jiang Ning.

Firstly, because of his status as an ascendant.

Secondly, he cultivated the Heaven Mending Scripture without her permission.

"I'm taking Lingxi away."

Jiang Ning said directly without the slightest politeness.

"Your Majesty, Heavenly Emperor, although you are powerful, this is a private matter of my 娲皇 Palace, and you don't seem to be qualified to interfere, right?"

Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes said through gritted teeth, very dissatisfied.

She was very annoyed by Jiang Ning's attitude.

Jiang Ning smiled coldly, "Do I need a reason to do things, or do I need your consent?"

"The world is vast, but who dares to stop me from doing what I want to do?"

Jiang Ning's words were very domineering.

Yes, with his strength, did he need anyone else's consent to do things?

Looking at Jiang Ning who was so domineering, Immortal Lingxi suddenly became a little infatuated.

"You..."

Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes was just about to speak when Jiang Ning glared at her, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Jiang Ning…"

Seeing Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes vomiting blood, Qing Nü quickly wanted to stop him, after all, she was her master.

Jiang Ning waved his hand and said, "I have my own measure."

If anyone else dared to speak to him like this, Jiang Ning would naturally not be polite to her.

However, she was Qing Nü's master, so Jiang Ning spared her life.

"Since you don't want to marry the Son of Heavenly Phoenix, then come with me."

Jiang Ning said to Immortal Lingxi.

"Yes." Immortal Lingxi nodded obediently without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing this, Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes was annoyed, but she could only sigh.

She couldn't even stop Jiang Ning's decision.

However, she had no idea how to explain to the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor.

"The Heavenly Phoenix Mountain envoy has arrived to welcome the bride, Immortal Lingxi!"

At this moment, a rumbling sound resounded throughout the entire Nine Lotus Immortal Mountain.

Eight demon emperors carried a sedan chair, led by two demon venerables, and descended upon the 娲皇 Palace.

"Greetings, envoys."

Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes said to the two demon venerables.

"Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes, where is Immortal Lingxi?"

A burly man with bull horns spoke.

He was the Chaotic Bull Demon, an ancient relic of the immortal era.

There are few human heavenly lords who are his opponents.

The other demon venerable was also an ancient relic, the Heaven Devouring Cloud Sparrow.

"This is Lingxi."

Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes pointed to the past.

She didn't want to care about this matter, so let Jiang Ning deal with the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor.

"Please, Immortal Lingxi, get on the sedan chair."

The Chaotic Bull Demon and the Heaven Devouring Cloud Sparrow respectfully invited Immortal Lingxi.

Lingxi said firmly, "Go back and tell the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor and Kong Xuan that I will not marry."

"What?"

"You dare to defy the Heavenly Phoenix Lord's decision?"

"This is not something you can decide, you must come with us."

Hearing this, the Chaotic Bull Demon and the Heaven Devouring Cloud Sparrow became angry.

Terrifying demon might enveloped the 娲皇 Palace, preparing to directly capture Immortal Lingxi.

"You dare to attack the person I want to take away?"

Jiang Ning smiled coldly and stood up.

Immortal Lingxi is one of the keys to opening Buzhou Mountain, and he cannot let others take her away.

"Presumptuous, you are just a human heavenly lord, where do you get off being so arrogant?"

The Chaotic Bull Demon was furious, and a black giant axe in his hand slashed towards Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning smiled indifferently, gently stretched out a finger, and headed towards the giant axe.

"Extremely arrogant, daring to use a finger to resist my giant axe."

A shocking killing intent erupted in the Chaotic Demon's eyes.

Clang!

Jiang Ning's finger collided with the giant axe, directly crushing the giant axe into powder.

"What?"

"You..."

"How is that possible?"

The Chaotic Bull Demon's eyes widened, and he was extremely unbelievable.

Boom!

Jiang Ning's finger crushed down.

Instantly, the Chaotic Bull Demon and the Heaven Devouring Cloud Sparrow fell to the ground, completely unable to move at all.

"You... you are Heavenly Emperor Jiang Ning!"

At this time, even the stupidest people knew that the person in front of them was Heavenly Emperor Jiang Ning, who was now famous in the Immortal Realm.

Only he, in the Heavenly Lord Realm, had such terrifying strength.

Boom!

Jiang Ning did not hesitate at all, and with a slight force.

Instantly, the two demon venerables and eight demon emperors were directly annihilated.

"Let's go, let's go to Heavenly Phoenix Mountain."

"Completely solve your troubles."

Jiang Ning said lightly.

Afterwards, he took the two women, Qing Nü and Immortal Lingxi, and disappeared directly in place.

"Heavenly Emperor Jiang Ning has taken action, I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse for my 娲皇 Palace."

Heavenly Lord Seven Absolutes showed a look of worry.

...

Heavenly Phoenix Mountain.

It is the habitat of the demon ancestor Heavenly Phoenix.

It is also the holy land of the demon ancestor.

At this time, the entire Heavenly Phoenix Mountain was decorated with lanterns and colors, full of festive atmosphere.

The son of the Heavenly Phoenix, Kong Xuan, is about to get married.

The object of the marriage is Immortal Lingxi, the holy maiden of the 娲皇 Palace.

The great demons of the demon race came from thousands of miles away to attend the wedding.

The Ancestor of the Azure Peng, the Ancestor of the Yuan Dragon Demon, the Old Ancestor of the Black Demon… and other demon ancestors of the demon race also came to attend the wedding.

After all, the current Heavenly Phoenix is the number one person in the demon race, and no one dares not to give him face.

"Hahaha, congratulations to the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor."

At this time, the demons congratulated.

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor, who had transformed into a peerless middle-aged woman on the throne, had a smile on her face.

"Okay, thank you all for coming to attend my son's wedding."

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor was very happy.

At this time, Kong Xuan frowned slightly.

He said with some dissatisfaction, "Mother, why do you want me to marry a human woman?"

"Moreover, her cultivation is too low."

Obviously, Kong Xuan was also very dissatisfied with this arranged marriage.

Immortal Lingxi, in the human world, is the high and mighty holy maiden of the 娲皇 Palace.

Her status is lofty.

But in front of the proud Kong Xuan, he believed that her status was low and she was completely unworthy of him.

"There are some things that mother can't tell you now, you will know later."

"At that time, you will thank mother."

Yuanfeng comforted her son with a smile.

She doted on this only descendant to the extreme.

Boom~

At this moment, a space channel appeared in the sky.

"So fast? The welcoming team is back?"

The demons were a little surprised.

"Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor, I have taken Lingxi away, are you convinced?"

As if the voice of a god, it fell from the sky.

"Bold, who are you, daring to be presumptuous on my demon race's territory!"

Hearing this, a group of great demons roared angrily.

One by one, powerful demon ancestors released their pressure towards the space channel.

"Heavenly Emperor Jiang Ning!"

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor's eyes flashed with cold light, and she glared at the space channel.

Obviously, she had already recognized Jiang Ning.

"That's right, it's me!"

"Lingxi doesn't want to marry your son, this marriage ends here."

Jiang Ning didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

"Heavenly Emperor, you are too domineering, are you going to interfere in my demon race's affairs?"

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor's voice was extremely gloomy.

"Heavenly Emperor, this is my demon race, not the human race, it's not your turn to interfere in my demon race's affairs."

The Ancestor of the Azure Peng, the Old Ancestor of the Black Demon, the Ancestor of the Cloud Dragon, and others said angrily.

They were very dissatisfied with Jiang Ning's provocative behavior, and they gritted their teeth.

"In the Immortal Realm, strength is respected, and there is nothing I can't interfere with."

Jiang Ning said indifferently.

He was courteous first and then forceful. If they couldn't reach an agreement, then he would have to take action.

"What if I don't agree?"

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor's eyes were filled with killing intent.

If Jiang Ning took Immortal Lingxi away, then the demon race's face would be lost.

Moreover, this was the demon race's territory, and Jiang Ning had only come alone, so the chances of winning were great.

Therefore, the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor didn't want to give up like this.

"If you are stubborn, you are looking for death!"

Jiang Ning didn't talk nonsense and directly took action.

A huge palm descended towards the entire Heavenly Phoenix Mountain.

"It is said that Heavenly Emperor Jiang Ning killed the Immortal Lord."

"I don't believe that a heavenly lord can really be so ridiculously powerful."

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor, one of the three strongest demons in the history of the demon race, took action.

He directly transformed into his true form, an extremely huge golden phoenix.

Terrifying claws tore apart the Great Dao and attacked Jiang Ning.

He directly tore Jiang Ning's giant hand apart.

Jiang Ning smiled coldly, this Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor was indeed powerful.

If he hadn't used the Qingtu plug-in before, he probably wouldn't have been able to suppress him.

With a thought from Jiang Ning, the strongest national fortune directly blessed him.

Instantly, Jiang Ning's strength directly reached the limit of the Immortal Realm, infinitely close to surpassing strength.

"Aowu~"

The water and fire twin dragons emerged, looking down upon the universe, and killed the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor.

Rumble~

With one move, the Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor, one of the strongest demon ancestors in the history of the demon race, was directly seriously injured and slammed heavily on the ground.

The ground was covered with scattered golden feathers.

"What?"

"The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor was defeated in one move?"

Seeing this scene, the demons were all dumbfounded, their bodies were cold, and they were extremely terrified.

"You... your strength has surpassed Pan Zu."

The Heavenly Phoenix Ancestor also looked at Jiang Ning in disbelief.

She had a brief encounter with Pan Zu back then, so she naturally knew his strength.

She never dreamed that Jiang Ning's current strength would so easily surpass Pan Zu.

"Heavenly Emperor, this is your personal grudge; it has nothing to do with us."

"We'll leave immediately."

At that moment, the demons all scattered.

Just a moment ago, they were united, rebuking Jiang Ning for provoking the demon race.

Now, having witnessed Jiang Ning's terrifying strength, they immediately cowered and ran.

Jiang Ning ignored the fleeing demons, his gaze fixed on the heavily injured Ancestor of the Heavenly Phoenix.

"Since you chose to attack, you must pay the price with your life."

Jiang Ning gathered the power of the Emperor's Way, preparing to kill the Ancestor of the Heavenly Phoenix.

"Jiang Ning, wait."

"I have some questions I want to ask the Ancestor of the Heavenly Phoenix."

Immortal Ling Xi suddenly spoke, stopping Jiang Ning.

She wanted to know why the Ancestor of the Heavenly Phoenix chose her to be his son's fiancée the moment she was born.

Did she really possess some kind of secret?
