Chapter 28: Demon Son Wuqing, Issuing a Challenge

Three days later!

Inside a cave, Ye Lang adjusted his clothes, placed the Heart-Slaying Demonic Blade on his back, and prepared to head towards the Heavenly Demon Hall!

Today was the beginning of the month, which was also the day of the ranking battle!

At this moment, Ye Lang’s aura was much stronger than it had been three days prior.

This was naturally due to the foundation rewards of these past few days!

Just like before, the daily reward was indeed equivalent to a month of cultivation; therefore, Ye Lang now had three more months’ worth of cultivation.

Ye Lang arrived outside the cave and involuntarily narrowed his eyes!

Not far away, many true disciples had also come out of their caves and were sizing each other up.

In the Heavenly Demonic Sect, breaking through to the Heavenly Realm made one a true disciple, and the entire Heavenly Demonic Sect had approximately twenty of them!

However, most were only at the early stage of the Heavenly Realm; there were only three at the mid-stage Heavenly Realm!

No, now there should only be two, because the current Leng Shang had already reached the late-stage Heavenly Realm!

This number was similar to the original Lingxiao Sect, but after experiencing the demonic cultivator attack, the Lingxiao Sect could no longer be compared to sects of the same level!

Ye Lang only glanced at the crowd without speaking, his figure directly leaving and heading towards the Heavenly Demon Hall!

Not long after, within a pitch-black and tall palace in the enormous canyon of the Heavenly Demonic Sect!

Ye Lang’s figure appeared here!

This was the Heavenly Demon Hall!

At this time, the Heavenly Demon Hall was already packed with Demonic Sect disciples, inside and out!

Although they were not qualified to participate in the ranking battle, it did not prevent them from enjoying watching!

One reason was to understand the new true disciple rankings of the sect, and the other was to observe the experts’ battles and learn secretly.

“Leng Shang!”

As soon as Ye Lang appeared, an ugly man in the hall immediately gritted his teeth; it was the person who had been sent flying by Ye Lang’s blade that day!

Beside him, a man with a haughty expression and blood-red eyes also turned to look at Ye Lang!

“Demon Son, that Leng Shang has now broken through to the late-stage Heavenly Realm and poses a threat to you!”

The ugly man looked at the man beside him and said with a ferocious expression.

“Hehe, if he dares to challenge me today, I will make sure his demonic cultivator path ends here!”

The man with blood-red eyes was the Heavenly Demonic Sect’s Demon Son, Xie Wuqing. Upon hearing this, he spoke sinisterly, a trace of killing intent revealed in his eyes!

The reason he was like this was naturally not just because Leng Shang’s cultivation had broken through!

More importantly, the day before yesterday, when he went to the secret realm to find Han Weiwei, she was actually muttering Leng Shang’s name!

Although it was just cursing, saying things like how Leng Shang had gotten bolder and such!

But this was already intolerable for Xie Wuqing!

In his heart, anyone who dared to compete with him for Han Weiwei was a mortal enemy, because behind Han Weiwei was the Heavenly Demonic Sect’s Sect Master, an Emperor Realm expert!

On the side, the ugly young man couldn’t help but feel overjoyed upon hearing this!

“I’m just afraid he won’t dare to challenge…”

“So he’s the Demon Son, Xie Wuqing?”

At this time, Ye Lang was also secretly observing Xie Wuqing, muttering in his heart.

He looked quite intimidating; he wondered how many of his strikes Xie Wuqing could withstand!

He didn’t plan to use skills easily, after all, he was currently undercover in the Demonic Sect, it was better to use strange methods less often!

Besides, with the addition of his current Demonic Body, he didn’t believe Xie Wuqing could be his opponent!

Soon, more than twenty true disciples had all arrived within the Heavenly Demon Hall!

Not only that, but powerful demons also appeared in the hall one after another; they were the Masters of the various true disciples!

Lin Sha’s figure was also among them!

“Master!”

Ye Lang saw Lin Sha arrive and bowed his head slightly.

“Shang’er, don’t be nervous, just do your best!”

Lin Sha’s face was full of encouragement, which seemed somewhat out of place with his cold and ruthless appearance!

Ye Lang couldn’t help but feel a pang of discomfort seeing this!

“The ranking battle, now begins!”

At this moment, a venerable Demon Emperor with a powerful aura descended, glanced at the hall, and said coldly.

Ye Lang and the others immediately went to the depths of the hall and fought in order!

Xie Wuqing naturally stood in the very center, while Ye Lang stood in the third position!

This represented the original Leng Shang’s ranking!

As everyone took their positions, the ranking battle officially began!

The method was quite simple: if you didn’t like someone and their ranking was higher than yours, you could issue a challenge to them, and the latter had to accept the challenge!

“Damn it, why didn’t Han Weiwei come?”

Ye Lang’s divine sense surged out, observing inside and outside the hall, but he couldn’t find Han Weiwei’s figure, and couldn’t help but feel somewhat disappointed!

At this time, a true disciple had already begun to challenge!

The two began to fight within the hall!

Immediately, huge blood-red blade lights clashed within the hall, and from time to time, bursts of Demonic Energy swept through the hall!

“Ah!”

Soon, with a scream, a blood-red blade light slashed across one of them!

An arm fell from his body!

The battle ended!

“True Disciple Xu Han, wins!”

“Ranking rises to tenth place!”

The Demon Emperor glanced indifferently at the scene, his voice emotionless.

“Although demonic cultivators have no bottom line in their actions, it must be said that the disciples they cultivate have generally higher battle prowess than those of the Righteous Path!”

Inside the hall, Ye Lang’s thoughts turned slightly, and he secretly said.

“Ding!”

“Mission triggered: Challenge the Heavenly Demonic Sect’s Demon Son as an undercover agent and become their new Demon Son!”

At this moment, the system’s prompt sounded in Ye Lang’s mind!

Ye Lang wasn’t surprised, he was even a little delighted!

He was actually waiting for the system mission to appear, so he could get another wave of rewards for free!

Since the mission had arrived, Ye Lang didn’t plan to waste any time! As for Han Weiwei, he could only wait until later!

With this in mind, Ye Lang planned to challenge Xie Wuqing!

Suddenly, a piercing voice rang out in the hall:

“Leng Shang, haven’t you already broken through to the late-stage Heavenly Realm?”

“Why, don’t you even have the courage to challenge the Demon Son?”

The speaker was the ugly young man. Seeing that Ye Lang hadn’t made a move for a long time, he was worried that he wouldn’t dare to challenge!

So he spoke out to provoke him.

“Shut up!”

“I was just about to challenge the Demon Son. Since you’ve jumped out, I’ll challenge you first!”

Ye Lang stepped forward, looked at him, and said coldly.

Coincidentally, the ugly young man’s seat was second, slightly higher than the original Leng Shang’s, otherwise he wouldn’t have dared to provoke Ye Lang when he had just joined the Demonic Sect!

This way, Ye Lang could just challenge him, and he couldn’t refuse!

“I…”

The ugly young man cursed inwardly, stunned and speechless!

If it were the previous Leng Shang, he wouldn’t be afraid, but the key was that now he was at the late-stage Heavenly Realm!

He had been given a slash just a few days ago!

“What, do you want to violate the rules?”

Ye Lang’s gaze was like lightning, pressing him tightly.

If this annoying fly wasn’t taught a lesson, he would only become more arrogant!

“El… Elder, I admit defeat!”

The ugly young man’s face flushed red, but he still didn’t dare to fight Ye Lang. Instead, he looked at the Demon Emperor and directly admitted defeat!

He was really afraid that Ye Lang would slash him to death with one strike!

“Wow, he actually admitted defeat directly, he’s too cowardly, right?”

“What a disgrace to the Demonic Sect!”

“…”

Whispers of discussion involuntarily arose inside and outside the hall, making the ugly young man wish he could find a hole to crawl into!

The hatred on his face almost solidified!

“Hehe!”

Ye Lang chuckled lightly, then looked at Xie Wuqing, raised his head, and said:

“Now, I challenge you!”
