<h4>Chapter 556: The Silver Wolf Demon Emperor!</h4>
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the day for the Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony had arrived.
On this day, Jin Zhulong, the chief of the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao n, led Ling Feng and several elite young members of the n towards the sacrednd.
Although Jin Jiao and the others could not participate in the Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony, they still wanted to witness the grandeur of the event.
To reach the sacrednd, they first had to go to the Demon Emperor’s Pce, where the ceremony would be hosted. This time, it was the Qiongqi Demon Emperor''s turn to oversee the event.
The Qiongqi Demon Emperor would meet the geniuses of various ns in the square of the Demon Emperor''s Pce and hold a grandpetition among a hundred ns. The top five geniuses would then be allowed to enter the sacrednd and receive the blessing of the Ancestral Soul.
The group from the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao n arrived at the square of the Demon Emperor''s Pce. The square was several hundred zhang wide, surrounded by strict guards. High arrow towers and watchtowers were set up in various ces. Indeed, this was a royal pce, far superior to an ordinary demon n’s settlement.
When they arrived at the square, many demons had already gathered and were dressed in splendid attire. After all, they were going to meet a demon emperor, so they naturally had to be more formal.
From a distance, Ling Feng spotted Hai Yunji, the chief of the Lin Demon n, who had already arrived with her people. Among those representing the Lin Demon n in thepetition was Hai Lingxiang.
"Chief Yunji."
Ling Feng greeted Hai Yunji with a bow and a slight nod.
Hai Lingxiang, standing behind Hai Yunji, blushed slightly when she saw Ling Feng.
In fact, the incident where the Minotaur nunched a massive attack on the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao n had spread throughout Heavenly Demon City. Ling Feng’s sudden transformation into a Chaotic Giant Beast had been so colossal, towering over a hundred zhang high, that it was impossible for others not to notice.
That battle not only shocked the ordinary demons of Heavenly Demon City, but even a few demon emperors and demon rulers who were nearby had secretly taken note of Ling Feng''s existence.
However, the appearance of the Demonic Jiao n’s old ancestor at the end of the battle intimidated all the demon emperors and demon rulers, making them wary of making any moves against Ling Feng.
The fact that this Long Fei of the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao n possessed the legendary Chaotic Bloodline had spread throughout Heavenly Demon City. Now, Ling Feng was a well-known figure in Heavenly Demon City, and the name Long Fei had almost be a legend.
At this moment, even if Ling Feng himself imed to be human, no one would believe him. After all, the Chaotic Giant Beast he had transformed into through Chaotic Rebirth was far too convincing!
"Long Fei, I am truly grateful for what you did for my daughter," Hai Yunji bowed slightly to Ling Feng and spoke softly.

"It was a small matter, not worth mentioning."
Ling Feng responded with a carefree smile, though he couldn''t help but feel a surge of excitement within.
The demon race''s sacrednd was right in front of him. Once he acquired the teachings of the Reincarnation Sword Emperor, he could finally leave Heavenly Demon City.
In a seemingly inconspicuous corner, Niu Bi, the chief of the Minotaur n, stared coldly at Ling Feng while silently clenching his fists.
Surprisingly, his face showed little anger. Instead, he appeared calm—so calm that it seemed almost eerie...
As themander of the imperial guards of the Demon Emperor''s Pce, Niu Bi’s presence here was not unexpected.
Ling Feng naturally noticed the cold gaze as well. The deep-seated enmity between him and Niu Bi was unyielding. However, this was the Demon Emperor''s Pce, and Niu Bi wouldn’t dare make a move here.
Before long, the Qiongqi Demon Emperor emerged from one of the buildings within the Demon Emperor''s Pce and ascended into the sky, surrounded by a radiant multicolored glow and flocks of birds. Standing atop a massive bird several meters long, he swiftly flew to the center of the square.
Apanying him was another demon emperor with silver hair and robes. His aura was profound and restrained, matching the Qiongqi Demon Emperor in strength.
This demon emperor had also achieved a nearly perfect transformation, with only a few sharp ws and fangs remaining to hint at his demon lineage. Judging by his aura, he was no less powerful than the Qiongqi Demon Emperor.
"It was unexpected to see that the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor was here alongside the Qiongqi Demon Emperor!"
Noticing the puzzled look on Ling Feng’s face, Jin Zhulong whispered an introduction to him. "The demon emperor standing beside the Qiongqi Demon Emperor is known as the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor. Although the Big Nine Demon Emperors operate independently under the Big Three Demon Rulers, the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor and the Qiongqi Demon Emperor have always maintained a close rtionship."
"Mhmm." Ling Feng nodded slightly, though he couldn’t shake the feeling that the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor''s gaze was too sinister. He was not the kind of person one could trust.
As they spoke, the two demon emperors had alreadynded on a high tform in front of the hall, standing with their hands behind their backs. Their presence alone exuded authority andmanded the submission of all the demons present.
"Greetings, demon emperors!"
The demon ns bowed deeply in reverence, while Ling Feng only half-squatted, blending in with the crowd so that no one would notice.
"Rise, all of you."
The Qiongqi Demon Emperor smiled faintly, his gaze subtly sweeping over Ling Feng and giving him a slight nod.
Among the demon emperors who had noticed Ling Feng’s transformation into the Chaotic Beast, the Qiongqi Demon Emperor was one of them. On that day, when he saw Ling Feng''s strength waning, the Qiongqi Demon Emperor had actually been ready to intervene. However, he hadn’t anticipated the appearance of such a formidable expert from the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao n.
Noticing the Qiongqi Demon Emperor''s gaze, Ling Feng felt his face flush with embarrassment. Kneeling felt inappropriate, but not kneeling felt disrespectful, so he could only force a calm expression and awkwardly smile.
In truth, given his current identity as a prince of the main branch of the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao n—a royal lineage from the northern demon domain—he wasn’t required to kneel before the demon emperors of the southern Nanjiang demon domain.
"Thank you, demon emperors!"
Upon hearing the Qiongqi Demon Emperor''smand, the demons all stood up respectfully in their ces, solemnly awaiting the demon emperor’s speech.
The Qiongqi Demon Emperor then began a long speech about the Beast God’s blessings upon the hundred ns, but Ling Feng found it dreadfully boring and almost dozed off. Finally, with a grand wave of his hand, the Qiongqi Demon Emperor caused a massive bone arena to rise in the center of the square, snapping Ling Feng back to attention.
The real show had finally begun!
"Children of the demon race, step onto the arena, defeat your opponents, and im the blessing of the Ancestral Soul!"
The Qiongqi Demon Emperor''s shout was met with a thunderous roar from the crowd. Some demons even reverted to their true forms and leaped directly onto the tform.
One after another, demon geniuses jumped onto the bone arena and engaged in wild, chaotic battles with no regard for rules or order.
"What kind ofpetition is this?"
Ling Feng muttered, his eyes twitching as he nced at Jin Zhulong.
"This is the style of Heavenly Demon City," Jin Zhulong replied. "All the geniuses fight in a free-for-all on the arena. Thest five demons standing will be the ones allowed to enter the sacrednd and receive the blessing of the Ancestral Soul."
Ling Feng rolled his eyes. It was certainly direct and violent!
It made sense, though. With so many demons in Heavenly Demon City, from various branches and factions, a one-on-onepetition could drag on until nightfall without the top five being decided.
This method, while brutal, was at least efficient.
