The change in attitude of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan surprised those demons who had just been cheering for their unwillingness to submit.

They quickly realized what was happening, and their passionate shouts turned into frantic mockery.

"What the heck? Did a donkey kick their brains? Did they use their pride to make soup?"

"Hmph! The Heavenly Phoenix Clan? I think we should call them the Heavenly Dog Clan. It's said that dogs are the most loyal friends of humans."

"........"

Despite the surrounding complaints, the two old men's expressions remained unchanged.

Little did they know that in a life-or-death crisis, survival was the only option.

As long as one can live, who cares about what one has to give up?

Can dignity put food on the table?

Obviously not.

Lin Xiao greatly appreciated the attitude of the two Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan members.

He turned to look at Tian Qing'er and asked, "By the way, what have you thought about it? Do you want to live, or do you want to die with dignity?"

Tian Qing'er remained silent, her delicate face filled with a resolute and unyielding expression.

"So, you're choosing to die with dignity?"

As Lin Xiao spoke, he was about to activate the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Token in his hand, intending to kill it.

However, the two old men who had acknowledged him as their master quickly said...

"Master, you mustn't, you mustn't! Let this old servant persuade the young lady."

An old man stepped forward and began to persuade them.

"Fine! I'll give you a chance, three minutes. If you can't do it, we'll all die together."

The old man nodded.

Then he came to Tian Qing'er's side and whispered.

"Miss, let's temporarily acknowledge him as our master. Don't forget the hopes the clan leader has placed in us. Our Heavenly Phoenix Clan is in crisis and we still need your help to save us!"

"Yes, Miss, we're just pretending to acknowledge him as our master. Once we leave this place and return to the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, we can take revenge anytime we want!"

"........"

Hearing what these people said, Tian Qing'er's expression finally softened.

She looked at Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao's gaze was also fixed on him.

He had overheard everything the two old men had said.

He wasn't afraid that the two old men might suddenly turn back halfway through.

You can't just do anything in this ancient burial ground.

Thinking of this, he ignored the two old men.

After all, he was just using them.

"Are you all done persuading them? Time's almost up!" Lin Xiao said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Tian Qing'er reluctantly came to Lin Xiao's side.

He knelt on one knee.

"Greetings, Master!"

Tian Qing'er gritted her teeth, seemingly only doing it reluctantly.

However, none of that matters to the demon race.

These words alone are enough to damage their resolve.

There are only two ways to repair this damage in the future.

One is to devour the master, which means killing him.

The second type is to willingly acknowledge Him as their master.

Both methods can damage that injured Dao heart.

It remains to be seen what she will choose in the future.

Lin Xiao glanced at Tian Qing'er and then said, "Get up."

"Yes, Master!" Tian Qing'er stood up, her pretty face still covered in frost.

"Master, where are you going next?"

An old man cautiously approached Lin Xiao and asked.

"Go find someone!"

As Lin Xiao spoke, he walked toward another ancient site.

That is the ancient land where the ancestors of the human race are buried, unlike the ancient land of the demon race.

All living things are welcome to enter.

This demonstrates the magnanimity of the ancient sages of humankind.

And that was the direction Liu Ruyan and the others entered.

He remembered that Zi Yan had the demonic seed he left behind, and now the people from the Heavenly Demon Realm had come here.

He was going to check if anyone was in danger.

Let's go!

Lin Xiao strode out and headed towards the ancient human settlement.

Wherever he passed, the surrounding humans and demons all made way for him.

He traveled without any obstacles.

At the same time, he did not find a place where he could take action.

This way, he won't even have a chance to steal some of the treasures.

Just as Lin Xiao was walking towards an ancient human settlement.

A hoarse voice came from the surrounding area.

"Boy, how come you possess the inheritance of my Heavenly Demon Dao Domain!"

A graceful woman wearing a black, tight-fitting long dress and a black veil walked over.

The woman's face was obscured, but she had an exceptional figure—a pear-shaped body with prominent breasts and fair skin—which undoubtedly indicated that she was no ordinary person.

You should know that most people in this ancient burial ground are covered in dust and dirt.

It's quite rare for a woman to maintain such a clean appearance.

Lin Xiao glanced at the person and immediately discerned their information.

Name: Yao Ling'er

Age: 39

[Cultivation Level: Reincarnation Realm (Ninth Level)!]

[Destiny: Villain in "Chaos Sword Emperor", Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Heavenly Demon Body!]

[Life Script: The most outstanding genius of the Heavenly Demon Sect in nearly ten thousand years, possessing the supreme physique of the Heavenly Demon Body, the best physique for cultivating demonic techniques in all ages.]

Because the treasure obtained from the Ancient Burial Ground was stolen by Long Haochen, the "Chaos Sword Emperor," the two became sworn enemies. Later, on the road to taking revenge on Long Haochen, she helped him become stronger time and time again.

Ultimately, her lineage was destroyed by the fully risen Long Haochen, she was imprisoned in the Nether Palace, and had hundreds of offspring!

"........"

[Chance Encounter: Deep within the ancient human lands, you unexpectedly stumble upon the territory of an ancient demon realm. The demons, drawn to your Heavenly Demon Physique, reward you with dozens of ten-year life-saving treasures, granting you the supreme treasure, the Heavenly Demon Pearl (a traceable opportunity)!]

Upon seeing the information about the demon spirit, Lin Xiao was immediately overjoyed.

"Very good, I never expected that a villain would have such an opportunity."

"System, track down Yao Ling'er's destiny."

Lin Xiao silently recited it in his heart.

Then a thread spread out from the demon spirit's body and extended into the depths of the ancient human land.

"Miss Ling'er, it's been a long time!"

Lin Xiao withdrew his gaze and greeted Yao Ling'er in a casual tone.

"You know me?"

"I don't remember seeing you anywhere before!"

When she heard Lin Xiao call out her name, Yao Ling'er was startled.

She never expected that even though she had hidden herself so well, someone would still find out.

Most importantly, she didn't remember ever seeing Lin Xiao.

It should be understood that a Reincarnation Realm expert's soul has been developed to an extremely powerful level, therefore their memory is excellent.

She searched her memory and found no one who could match Lin Xiao.

Therefore, she was surprised when Lin Xiao called out her name.

"Hehe! Miss Ling'er, don't be surprised. I'm just born with a pair of discerning eyes that can see through the past, present, and future!"
