Back in the Holy Gate headquarters, Huang Xiaolong did not return to the Myriad Dragon Peak. He went straight to the Mission Hall to hand in his completed mission scroll.
When Huang Xiaolong arrived at the Mission Hall, the Mission Hallâs Hall Master Zheng Xu came out to greet him personally.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zheng Xu was full of smiles seeing that Huang Xiaolong had returned one month ahead of the deadline and spoke first, âYour Highness Holy Prince Huang Xiaolong, you returned so fast. It seems that you have successfully completed your task?!â
Though Zheng Xu was smiling, there was a hint of mockery hidden within his smile. He clearly thought that Huang Xiaolong had finally realized that there was no hope in completing the task given to him. Thus he had returned early.
Huang Xiaolong answered casually, âThanks to Hall Master Zheng Xuâs blessings, I have completed the task. Therefore, I came to hand in my mission scroll.â As he was saying this, he took out the Three Red Devilsâ heads and threw them to the ground.
Zheng Xu looked at the Three Red Devilsâ heads on the ground dazedly. A moment later, with a wave of his hand, the three heads flew towards him. He tried to match the Three Red Devilsâ auras with the ones they had in the record.
Upon matching, these three heads, indeed, belonged to the Three Red Devils!
When Zheng Xu matched their auras a second time, it truly matched!
Huang Xiaolong took out his mission scroll and casually threw it towards Zheng Xu as he said, âHall Master Zheng Xu, have you verified it? Since itâs verified, please sign the mission scroll with a drop of your blood!â
Only after Zheng Xu signed the mission scroll with his blood would Huang Xiaolongâs task be officially acknowledged as completed.
Zheng Xu was a little dazed as he held the mission scroll. It had never crossed his mind to sign the mission scroll for Huang Xiaolong.
âWhat is it, Hall Master Zheng Xu? Are the Three Red Devilsâ auras incorrect?â Huang Xiaolong asked when he saw Zheng Xu standing dazed. Inwardly, he sneered coldly.
Zheng Xu regained his composure, squeezing a smile on his face as he responded, âNo, no, the Three Red Devilsâ auras are correct. Congratulations to Your Highness Holy Prince Huang Xiaolong for successfully completing your new disciple task!â
He then dripped a drop of blood on the mission scroll to sign and seal it before placing it into the task storehouse.
At the same time, Zheng Xu issued Huang Xiaolong a certification that proved he had passed the new disciples training task.
When Huang Xiaolong was leaving the Mission Hall, he âinvitedâ Zheng Xu, âTo celebrate the successful completion of my new disciple training task, I will be holding a banquet at my Myriad Dragon Peak. Hall Master Zheng Xu must come.â
Zheng Xuâs facial nerves twitched as he made an effort to maintain the smile on his face, âThat, I am in charge of the Mission Hall. I am quite busy and probably wonât be able to attend. I hope Your Highness Holy Prince can excuse me.â
Huang Xiaolong nodded his head, âYou are right, but even though the Mission Hallâs matters keep you busy, Hall Master Zheng Xu should pay attention to your health., You shouldnât tire yourself too much.â
The smile on Zheng Xuâs face stiffened as he answered, âNaturally, naturally.â
He watched Huang Xiaolong leave until he was out of sight. The smile immediately disappeared from Zheng Xuâs face, and it was replaced by a gloomy expression as he turned and arrived at Eminent Elder Guo Qirongâs cultivation palace. He reported that Huang Xiaolong had successfully completed the given new disciple training task.
âWhat? Completed already? So fast?â Eminent Elder Guo Qirong was genuinely astonished.
Xu Jun, Li Yuhui, and Gong Chen were clearly surprised.
âCould he have asked someone to do it for him?â Gong Chen voiced his doubt with a frown on his forehead.
The Mission Hall Masterâs voice was solemn, âShall I tell the disciples at the Blue Sea branch to check out if the kid asked for help.â
Xu Jun sneered, âItâs no longer important whether he completed the task himself or had helpers. At the end of the day, heâs bound to die in the arena! He killed Jiang Tianâs nephew. At the moment, Jiang Tian wishes for nothing more than to eat his flesh and drink his blood! I think Jiang Tian, and the Holy Allianceâs Holy Princes are already waiting for him at the Myriad Dragon Peak!â
......
A day after Huang Xiaolong left the Mission Hall, the Myriad Dragon Peak came into sight on the horizon. With the Myriad Dragon Peak in sight, it gave Huang Xiaolong a sense of ease.
If he had a place to call home in the Holy World, then it would be the Myriad Dragon Peak.
Suddenly, Huang Xiaolongâs expression changed greatly. He flew off from the Golden Pig Treasureâs back and accelerated straight to the Myriad Dragon Peak.
Huang Xiaolong stopped in the air above the Myriad Dragon Peak. The Myriad Dragon Peak that he had spent several months to change was reduced to ruins!
The dozens of buildings on the peak were completely in ruins, and it was clear that someone had shattered it to pieces with a punch!
And the peak that was planted with spiritual herbs and divine trees were burned black by someone with divine fire!
Huang Xiaolongâs eyes were scarily icy.
Right at this time, a group of people flew over, led by Jiang Tian. There was Huang Zhouping and other Holy Allianceâs Holy Princes as well as their subordinates.
âYou guys did this?!â Huang Xiaolongâs icy gaze was fixed on Jiang Tianâs body. Although he had never met Jiang Tian before this, he could be certain that this young man wearing a golden black brocade robe was Jiang Tian!
Hearing that, Jiang Tian let out wanton laughter, âHuang Xiaolong, your words are wrong. Do you think someone of my status and identity would be so idle to do something so low?â
If an investigation were to be conducted, even Jiang Tian would get punished for destroying a Holy Princeâs cultivation palace. Therefore, Jiang Tian naturally would not admit to such a crime. Then again, he really hadnât acted personally.
Just like he said, with his status and identity, he didnât need to engage in such lowly actions personally. Of course, the other side of the story was that this matter was done by the Holy Allianceâs disciples on the sly.
âWhere are my people?â The killing intent in Huang Xiaolongâs intensified at Jiang Tianâs denial, and his voice was icier.
Jiang Tian chuckled with obvious malice, âYour people? Oh, you mean that maid? Hmm, how about this? If you promise to battle in the arena after three days from now, we will bring that maid to spectate the battle. If you defeat Junior Brother Huang Zhouping, then we will return the maid to you, but if you die in the arena, I donât think you will be in any capacity to worry about your maid anymore. So, I advise you that itâs better to worry about how miserably you are going to die in the arena!â
Then, as if he had just remembered something, Jiang Tian added, âOh right! The Enforcement Hallâs disciples killed those several divine beasts you had guarding around because they were running around unfettered. Their flesh must have been roasted by now and turned into dishes to go with wine for the Enforcement Hallâs disciples!â
Upon hearing that the Six Eyed Ice Lion, Titan, and other beasts were killed, and reduced to grilled meat as dishes for the Enforcement Hallâs disciples, Huang Xiaolongâs eyes glinted with unprecedented sharpness. He gritted his teeth and nearly spat out each word, âJiang Tian, I will make you regret this soon, regret everything you did today!â
Jiang Tian smiled arrogantly, detecting Huang Xiaolongâs killing intent, âHuang Xiaolong, you killed my nephew. This is just the beginning. I will make you understand the real meaning of regret in the arena battle, giving you the taste of how it feels to get your heart crushed!â
Huang Zhouping stepped forward and said, âHuang Xiaolong, according to our agreement, our battle was scheduled after your new disciple training taskâs completion. Now that youâve returned, Iâll see you in the arena in three days!â
âThere is no need to wait for three days. Tomorrow is fine!â Huang Xiaolong responded coldly.
Tomorrow? Huang Zhouping and the others were caught off guard.
The smile in Jiang Tianâs eyes deepened, âSince you want to die two days earlier, we shall fulfill your wish!â He nodded at Huang Zhouping.
âFine, tomorrow then!â Huang Zhouping grinned at Huang Xiaolong, âHuang Xiaolong, after I kill you tomorrow, I will take my pleasure from your little maidâs virgin blood! Itâs a pity that you wonât be able to see that!â
