Seeing this, Qingyu's eyes flashed with a hint of solemnity.
He formed seals with his hands, and the demonic power condensed into a huge barrier in the air, blocking the attack of the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire.
"boom!"
The Suzaku Divine Fire and Qingyu's demon barrier collided violently in the air, causing a deafening roar.
The blazing flames and the powerful demonic energy intertwined together to form a dazzling curtain of light, illuminating the entire training ground like daylight.
When the two were in a stalemate, Meng Wan suddenly moved.
Her figure flashed out like lightning, with terrifying power in her fists and feet, and she went straight towards Qingyu.
Qingyu was startled and had no time to react. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" Meng Wan's fists and kicks fell on Qingyu's body like raindrops.
Each blow was carried with incredible force, knocking Qingyu back repeatedly.
After a while, he was covered in wounds and his breathing became disordered.
“This… How is this possible!?”
Qingyu was secretly shocked, his eyes full of disbelief.
Even though I have suppressed my strength to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, I am still no match for Meng Wan!
No wonder Bifang was defeated so easily. Is this the strength of the seven demon tribes?
In the end, Qingyu was hit in the chest by a heavy punch from Meng Wan, and he flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.
He struggled to stand up, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, obviously he was seriously injured.
"Ms. Meng Wan's strength... is indeed extraordinary."
Qingyu gave a bitter laugh, with a hint of self-mockery in his tone, "Qingyu admits defeat."
Meng Wan was very happy that she had finally given this guy a good beating, but she still pretended to be indifferent on the surface.
"Thank you. If you hadn't suppressed your cultivation, I might not be your opponent."
Qingyu sighed in his heart, and there was a bit more sincere appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Meng Wan.
"Miss Meng Wan, there's no need to be modest. With your bloodline and potential, you will definitely shine in the future."
After saying that, Qingyu bowed to Meng Wan, turned around, jumped off the training ground, and hurried away.
Seeing that even the experienced commander Qingyu was defeated, the crowd was shocked.
"Commander Qingyu is the top expert in the Demon Emperor's Palace, yet he is suppressed so miserably by the little princess!"
"The little princess's strength is simply terrifying! Even Commander Qingyu is no match for her!"
"The Suzaku bloodline is so powerful! How hateful! Why can't I be born into a good family..."
Meng Wan stood in the martial arts arena, looking at the people in the audience, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
She knew that today's battle would definitely attract the attention of many people in the Demon King's Palace.
But this was exactly the effect she wanted.
Doesn’t the Demon King want to bribe her and train her as his “confidant”?
Then she has shown enough value for him to continue to invest in her.
Meng Wan slowly walked down the martial arts field and headed towards her palace.
Sure enough, not long after walking out of the martial arts arena, a maid came hurriedly and saluted respectfully.
"Little Princess, His Majesty the Demon King has summoned you. Please proceed to the main hall immediately."
When Meng Wan heard this, a glimmer of understanding flashed in her eyes.
She nodded, her tone calm, "I understand. I'll be right over."
Meng Wan followed the maid to the Demon King's main hall and bowed respectfully to the Demon King sitting on the high platform.
"Meng Wan greets His Majesty. I wonder what His Majesty wants me to do?"
The Demon King waved his hand, motioning Meng Wan to sit down, his tone as friendly as if he was talking to his own junior.
"I am very pleased to hear about your performance in the martial arts arena today.
Qingyu and Bifang are both outstanding warriors in my Demon Palace. The fact that you can defeat them in a duel is enough to prove your fighting talent."
Meng Wan's attitude is very humble.
"Your Majesty, you are too kind. Meng Wan's victory was merely a fluke. Young Master Qingyu and Young Master Bifang both suppressed their cultivation. If they had used their full strength, I might not have been their match."
"Haha, Meng Wan, you don't have to be so modest. I can see your talent and strength."
The Demon King smiled and waved his hand, seemingly casually saying, "No wonder the Suzaku and Black Tortoise tribes almost came to blows over a girl like you. It shows that you are quite capable."
Meng Wan lowered her head, hiding the coldness in her eyes, but her tone was still so respectful that no one could find fault with it.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. Meng Wan will work hard to cultivate and live up to Your Majesty's expectations."
The Demon King nodded and said in a gentle tone, "I summoned you today because I have something I want to discuss with you."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
The Demon King pondered for a moment and slowly said, "My demon race has a trial ground called the 'Ancient Secret Realm'. This place is extremely dangerous, but it also contains endless opportunities.
Originally, I did not recommend you to go. After all, you are still young and your cultivation has not reached its peak.
But after seeing your performance in the martial arts arena today, I think you might be able to give it a try."
He paused and looked at Meng Wan with a smile, "What do you think?"
When Meng Wan heard this, a thoughtful look flashed in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, I wonder what dangers lie within this ancient secret realm? What opportunities lie within?"
"The Yougu Secret Realm was formed after the death of a great demon named Yougu. This great demon was extremely powerful in life, even comparable to this emperor."
The Demon King sighed and smiled, with a hint of emotion in his tone.
"After his death, the demonic essence in his body merged with the power of heaven and earth, forming a unique secret realm, which is the Yougu Secret Realm. The most important opportunity in the Yougu Secret Realm is his inheritance."
After a brief pause, he continued.
"You Gu's cultivation during his lifetime was unparalleled, renowned throughout the Heavenly Demon Realm. The legacy he left behind, in terms of power alone, rivals even the legacy of the Twelve Divine Generals of the Demon Clan.
If you can obtain his inheritance, it will be of great benefit to your future practice."
Meng Wan's mood did not fluctuate much when she heard this.
After all, she has taken possession of the inheritance of the Twelve Divine Generals, but has not yet fully studied them.
Another ancient inheritance, she really has no interest in it.
However, since the Demon King mentioned the inheritance of the Twelve Divine Generals, this was a good opportunity to gather information...
Meng Wan feigned confusion and asked, "Your Majesty, I wonder what the 'Twelve Divine Generals Legacy' you just mentioned is. I'm not very knowledgeable, so please enlighten me."
"You don't even know the inheritance of the Twelve Divine Generals?"
The Demon King was surprised, but when he thought about Meng Wan's life experience and her status in the Suzaku Clan, he soon understood.
He pondered for a moment and said in a heavy tone.
"The inheritance of the Twelve Divine Generals is the most important inheritance of our demon race, bar none.
It is not only about twelve powerful inheritances, but also concerns the rise and fall of our demon race.
Unfortunately, the inheritance of the Twelve Gods fell into the hands of the human race three years ago, and its whereabouts are now unknown."
Having said that, anger flashed in the Demon King's eyes.
A hint of surprise flashed in Meng Wan's eyes. She really didn't expect that the inheritance of the Twelve Generals was so important to the demon clan.
"It's about the rise and fall of the demon race? Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
The Demon King sighed secretly, but was unwilling to talk more.
"These are still too far away for you. You should first prepare to enter the ancient secret realm."
