Chapter 537: The Ancestor Soul Awakening Ceremony

Oh my god!

Ling Feng felt utterly devastated. It was as if a thunderbolt had struck him, leaving him charred on the outside and tender on the inside.

"Um... Hai Lingxiang, there seems to be some misunderstanding." Ling Feng cleared his throat. "I'm actually just a juvenile Three-Headed Demonic Jiao."

"Pfft." Hai Lingxiang’s cheeks flushed red, and her little hand suddenly slid onto Ling Feng’s chest. "Don’t try to fool me. Transformed demons are considered adults, and are at least old enough to mate!"

Ling Feng’s body froze in place. After all, he was still a virgin!

Clap, clap, clap!

Hai Lingxiang clapped her hands, and instantly, twelve Lin Demon Clan maidens gracefully entered the room and stood in front of Ling Feng.

These twelve maidens had evidently been meticulously chosen, each one breathtakingly beautiful. Some were gentle and demure, like delicate flowers, while others were passionate and confident.

There were also those who were playful and cute, and others who were aloof and frosty, with some embodying an ethereal and otherworldly beauty.

In short, every type of beauty coveted by the world was represented here.

Adding to this, the Lin Demon Clan princess Hai Lingxiang herself...

The demon race was indeed fierce!

"Greetings, Lord Long Fei!"

The beautiful maidens each displayed their grace and blossoming charm, with traces of shyness on their faces.

"Alright, Long Fei. You can start now," Hai Lingxiang said, standing before Ling Feng in a pose as if inviting him to pick his choice.

"Heh..."

Ling Feng’s mouth twitched. These beauties were indeed tempting; this was an absolute stroke of fortune!

However, this kind of fortune was beyond his capacity to handle.

The difference between humans and animals was that humans possessed reason and could suppress their animal instincts.

Ling Feng sighed deeply, feeling both helpless and amused. He coughed a few times and said, "Princess Lingxiang, during the battle with the minotaurs earlier, I used a bloodline martial skill that consumed a lot of essence. Normally, I would need to abstain from these kinds of activities for a period of time."

"Is that so?"

Hai Lingxiang looked at Ling Feng with some doubt. However, Ling Feng was only a demon general-level demon but exhibited power capable of insta-killing demon lord-level demons. He must have indeed used some kind of bloodline martial skill.

"Is it really not possible?" Hai Lingxiang frowned.

"Mhmm!" Ling Feng nodded solemnly. "If I force myself to mate now, it would severely deplete my vitality. My bloodline would suffer damage, and it would be impossible to produce strong offspring."

"I see." Hai Lingxiang looked disappointed but had no choice but to nod. "Then, Lord Long Fei, please rest well."

"Mhmm!" Ling Feng agreed repeatedly, planning to leave the Lin Demon Clan’s territory as soon as possible.

He had initially thought that staying in the Qiongqi’s demon emperor’s palace was risky, but it turned out that staying with the Lin Demon Clan was even more perilous!

Realizing that obtaining the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao bloodline today was impossible, Hai Lingxiang had the Lin Demon Clan maidens withdraw.

Suddenly, Hai Lingxiang remembered something and hurriedly said to Ling Feng, "Oh yes, Lord Long Fei, in half a month, it will be our Heavenly Demon City’s triennial Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony. At that time, the most outstanding geniuses from all clans will be sent to the outer perimeter of the sacred land to pay their respects at the tombs of past demon rulers. It is said that fortunate demons might be chosen by the will of the demon rulers and receive the bloodline inheritance from the past demon rulers!"

"Hmm?" Ling Feng's pupils contracted. "You mean the demon ruler’s tomb?"

"Yes, this is a custom of our Heavenly Demon City. I know that historically, there have been demon rulers of the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao Clan in Heavenly Demon City, so if you participate, you might also have a chance to receive the demon ruler's inheritance."

Ling Feng almost jumped up in excitement. This was truly a case of being spoon fed!

This was undoubtedly the most legitimate and low-risk way to enter the sacred land of the demon race!

"How can I participate in the Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony of Heavenly Demon City?" Ling Feng asked eagerly.

Hai Lingxiang narrowed her eyes, as if she had anticipated his interest, and smiled. "To participate, you need a recommendation from the major demon clans in Heavenly Demon City. Our Lin Demon Clan has two slots available. If Lord Long Fei needs one, I can speak to my mother about it."

"Oh, I can't possibly..." Ling Feng politely refused, but he was already bursting with excitement inside.

"As long as you're willing to become my husband, my mother will certainly have no objections," Hai Lingxiang said with a radiant smile.

However, this was like a bucket of cold water thrown over Ling Feng’s head.

After all the detours, it still came down to him leaving an heir for the Lin Demon Clan!

If he were truly a Three-Headed Demonic Jiao, it would be one thing, but he was human!

Ling Feng felt like crying without tears. He could use the trick of pretending to agree to marry Hai Lingxiang and then escape immediately after the ceremony, but that would certainly cause her great pain.

Although Hai Lingxiang was a demon, after spending several days together with her, Ling Feng had come to see her as a friend.

Deceiving a friend like that was something his conscience could never accept.

It was just a slot for the Ancestor Soul Awakening Ceremony!

Ling Feng suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "Princess Lingxiang, do you mean that as long as it's a demon clan within Heavenly Demon City, they can have a recommendation slot?"

"Yes." Hai Lingxiang blinked, sensing a twinge of unease.

"You mentioned before that there are also Three-Headed Demonic Jiao in Heavenly Demon City, right?" Ling Feng slapped his thigh and laughed. "If I can get a slot for the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao, that should work, right?"

"You..." Hai Lingxiang clenched her little fists, and her eyes instantly filled with tears.

"I understand now. Lord Long Fei, you... please rest well."

Hai Lingxiang’s expression darkened. Ling Feng had never shown the slightest interest in her, and from a demoness' perspective, this was a huge blow. Am I so unworthy that even a slot for the Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony can't make him interested?

To her, the only explanation was that with Ling Feng’s noble bloodline, he simply did not value the Lin Demon Clan.

Hai Lingxiang bit her lip and slowly withdrew from the room, her steps heavy as if filled with lead.

"Princess Lingxiang, I..."

Even if Ling Feng were dense, he realized he had hurt a woman, no, a demoness.

Sigh... Shaking his head and sighing, Ling Feng muttered to himself, "It looks like I can’t stay with the Lin Demon Clan any longer. Tomorrow morning, I should go check out the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao Clan!"

He had a vague sense of destiny guiding him toward the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao Clan.
