Chapter 921: Flame Lord
Ye Fei paused slightly in her steps.
"Xiao Fei, what's wrong?" Hua Ling, who was following behind, asked in a puzzled voice, "Why aren't you going in?"
Ye Fei turned to look at Hua Ling and sighed, "It's alright, let's go in."
Upon entering the main hall of the Youlong Palace, one is greeted by four attendants.
And an old man in a red robe with a white beard.
When the four attendants saw that the girl they hadn't seen for five years had finally returned, they were stunned for a moment, then their faces lit up with joy. They quickly surrounded her and respectfully bowed to her, saying, "Greetings, Your Highness Fei!"
Ye Fei smiled slightly at her four attendants: "I'm back."
After speaking, she turned her gaze to the old man in the red robe.
Previously, Ling had told her about the guardian beasts of the demon realm.
The demon realm has four guardian elders, each in charge of the four directions (east, south, west, and north), and each possesses their own independent clan.
If I'm not mistaken, the old man before me should be Elder Flame Lord, the transformed form of the guardian beast, the Flame Wolf, who governs the southern region.
Flame Lord stared coldly at the girl, his beastly eyes filled with undisguised contempt: "You're the one who inherited the power of the Holy Dragon, half-human and half-demon, Ye Fei?"
Ye Fei remained neither humble nor arrogant, raising her hand to clasp her hands in a fist salute to Yan Jun: "Indeed, Elder Yan Jun."
"Shut up! You incongruous creature, what right do you have to address me by my name?!" Flame Lord gritted his teeth, his expression filled with disgust: "Although His Highness the Holy Emperor inherited the power of the Holy Dragon to you, it doesn't mean that we four Guardian Beast Elders will acknowledge you!"
Qingzhu frowned: "Elder Yanjun, Princess Fei is the only human who has been recognized by His Majesty the Holy Emperor. Your words are extremely rude."
Yan Jun scoffed, his gaze sweeping over the girl: "You may sit on the throne of the Demon King. However, if you harbor any ill intentions towards the four guardian beast clans... Hmph!"
Ye Fei raised her eyelids slightly, a slight smile playing on her lips: "The four guardian beast clans comprise half the number of demons in the demon realm. I inherited everything from Chi Ye, including the power to control you."
Yan Jun frowned, his eyes blazing with fury, and a surge of killing intent erupted from his body, sweeping across the girl in front of him in a flash!
"Your Highness, be careful!"
Before the four attendants could even shield Ye Fei, the raging fire-elemental spiritual energy directly attacked her.
However, she was not repelled by the spiritual energy; instead, she quickly dissolved after touching Ye Fei's body!
Upon seeing this, Yan Jun's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Your Highness Fei! Are you injured?!" Although the attendants were shocked by what they had just seen and heard, they immediately turned their attention to Ye Fei's body, fearing that Yan Jun's spiritual energy had injured her.
Ye Fei shook her head: "I'm fine, don't worry."
After saying that, she slowly walked up to Yan Jun and said in a calm voice, "No matter how much Elder Yan Jun is dissatisfied with me, I am the new ruler of the demon realm, and that is an unchangeable fact."
"You arrogant brat, what power do you think you have to control us four guardian elders?" Flame Lord's eyes were cold. "I can crush you to death with just one finger!"
"Why don't we give it a try?"
Ye Fei raised the corners of her lips, her eyes as deep as the night: "I've heard that Elder Yan Jun's fire-type spiritual energy is extremely domineering, and coincidentally, I am also a fire-type spiritual master... Therefore, I would very much like to experience it for myself."
