Chapter 1015 True Phoenix University

When he saw Gu Xing’er and Hua Mojian, the middle-aged man was also slightly stunned.

He was extremely weak and fell on a rock beside him. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was ashen as he kept breathing hard. His body became increasingly dim.

“My two young friends, where are we?” The middle-aged man asked with a pale face.

Gu Xing’er stood in front of Hua Mojian and looked at the man carefully. Seeing that this person was not from the Demon Clan, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, “This is the Sand Continent, the periphery of the domain of the Immortal Phoenix Palace, a force of the Demon Clan in the Northern Region... May I ask who you are, sir?”

The middle-aged man gave a wry smile and breathed a sigh of relief. He said to himself, “Great Phoenix Sage has actually reached that realm. I’m no match for him. I almost couldn’t get out...” Speaking of this, he smiled and said to Gu Xing’er, “Don’t worry, little girl. I’m of the Human Clan.”

This man was naturally Huo Jun, an expert of the God’s Palace who had escaped from the brink of death.

On the other side.

Gu Xing’er and Hua Mojian were already extremely shocked.

“Who is this person? Judging from his words, it seems that he has fought with the Great Phoenix Saint and survived. Although he has suffered such serious injuries, what he did is still very shocking. Since the rise of the Immortal Phoenix Palace, no one has ever heard that someone could escape alive after confronting the Great Phoenix Saint.”

“Sir, are you from the Immortal Phoenix Palace?” Gu Xing’er’s thought about something as she asked.

With a wry smile on his face, Huo Jun said, “I got discovered by the demon army before I got close to the Immortal Phoenix Palace... Since this is the territory of the Demon Clan, why are you two here? Judging from your clothes, are you trying to go deep into the territory of the Immortal Phoenix Palace?”

“Have you ever seen our friend?” Hua Mojian could not help but ask. It was too late for Gu Xing’er to stop him when he described Ding Hao’s appearance.

Although Hua Mojian’s talent was not bad and he had been carefully groomed in the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect over the years and his strength had improved by leaps and bounds, he had no experience in dealing with others in the martial arts world after all. He was quite hazy to expose his knowledge so quickly.

Huo Jun nodded and said, “I did see him before. In the battle just now, he also showed up. But his identity is very special. He is the Holy Son of the Immortal Phoenix Palace. He is worshipped by thousands of demons. Why are you looking for him?”

Gu Xing’er and Hua Mojian were stunned.

Gu Xing’er also vaguely knew something about Xie Jieyu’s identity. She knew that there were some extremely obscure relationships between Ding Hao and the Immortal Phoenix Palace, but she did not expect that he would have such a distinguished position as its Holy Son.

Hua Mojian directly shouted, “What are you talking about? Uncle Ding is the Holy Father of the Human Clan in the Snow Province. He has a respected status. How could he be the Holy Son of the Demon Clan? Who are you? How dare you slander him...”

Huo Jun smiled slightly and was not angry. He said, “I’m a powerful person with high status. Why would I lie to little kids like you?”

Hua Mojian was instantly stunned.

In his heart, Ding Hao was the most respective one and his lifelong idol. He would never allow anyone to speak ill of Ding Hao. However, the severely injured middle-aged man in front of him, who could fight with the Great Phoenix Saint, must have great strength. He must be one of the top fighters. There was no need for such a person to lie to Hua Mojian.

Huo Jun looked at Hua Mojian carefully a few times and said, “Now that the Demon Clan and the Human Clan are at war, there is no chance of reconciliation. I’m afraid that before you get to find your friend on your way, you will become food for the Demon Clan. You’d better go back.”

Gu Xing’er frowned.

She knew that the middle-aged man was right.

This time, it was absolutely dangerous for the two of them to continue on their way. Since Ding Hao had become the Holy Son of the Immortal Phoenix Palace, he should not be in danger. He must have an extremely important thing to do. If the two of them went there, would they delay his business?

She was not afraid of death, but if she put Hua Mojian in danger, she would have trouble with Hua Huai’an.

Thinking of this, she wanted to retreat.

In fact, Gu Xing’er was experienced in the martial arts world and knew that she was not rational enough about her trip. Previously, it was her impulse to meet Ding Hao because she couldn’t wait to see the lover that kept her going. At this moment, she calmed down a little and hesitated.

Huo Jun’s eyes were extremely sharp. He could see through Gu Xing’er’s thoughts at a glance. He smiled and said, “If you want to meet your friend, you will have plenty of opportunities to do that in the future. Why are you in such a hurry?” His gaze landed on Hua Mojian. His eyes flashed as he said, “This little fellow has an astonishing aptitude. His inner body contains an ignis bloodline. Unfortunately, he practices an ordinary sword of fire. That’s just a waste. Young man, what’s your name?”

Hua Mojian was displeased when he heard Huo Jun comment on his sect’s cultivation method. He said, “I’m Hua Mojian, a disciple of the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect in the Northern Region.”

“The Extermination Swordsmanship Sect?” Huo Jun sneered. “Just a mediocre sect, as expected. They’re wasting their talents. If you continue to cultivate like this, when will you reach the God Realm? Boy, you should take me as your master, and I will teach you the real Great Way of the Ignis.”

Hua Mojian and Gu Xing’er were both shocked.

This man was so arrogant that even the magical power of the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect was described as mediocre. What kind of power would he take seriously? And the moment he talked, he spoke of the God Realm. Was magical power something he could just get as he pleased? Who was he?

However, since this person was able to fight with Great Phoenix Saint, perhaps he was really a God Realm Master.

Although Hua Mojian was also a core disciple in the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect and had various resources, he could not get the guidance of a God Realm Master there. It was impossible for him not to be tempted at this moment. Any martial artist would be tempted by the temptation of reaching the God Realm.

But in the end, he shook his head and said, “Thank you for your kind offer, sir. I’ve already joined a sect. I can’t join another one.”

...

...

In Phoenix Province.

In the headquarters of the Immortal Phoenix Palace.

The original name of this place was not Phoenix Province. Later, after the Immortal Phoenix Palace had risen, it completely occupied this province and unified the demons here. After that, the place was named Phoenix Province.

Ding Hao followed the One-legged Ox King along the way and was quite surprised.

The place was different from what he had imagined.

In Ding Hao’s impression, most of the territory of the Demon Clan was extremely chaotic, because the Demon Clan was born to be a loose tribe. Every kind of demon, compared with the Human Clan, still retained a certain animal nature. They were used to being carefree, so their place would look messy.

In the past, Ding Hao had been to some territory of the Demon Clan, where he could see fighting and barbaric acts everywhere. Different demons fought against each other. The upper Demon Clan was in charge of the others. The exploiting situation was very serious. The upper Demon Clan experts could decide the life and death of a small demon tribe with just a single command. Because they had too many tribes, even living in such a cruel environment, it would not reduce the scale of the Demon Clan.

On the contrary, the Demon Clan believed in the law of the strong more than the Human Clan. The huge forces of the Demon Clan that had ruled the demons for countless years, such as the Demon God Palace and the Heavenly Demon Temple, would allow the demons in their territory to kill each other. They believed that the ones who had passed the test of death were the actual strong ones.

This kind of way of survival made the life of most demons very difficult.

But in the Phoenix Province, what Ding Hao saw was a prosperous scene. Many tribes of the Demon Clan moved out of caves, valleys, and other places they were used to living. They began to gather, build cities, and build divine halls as the Human Clan did.

“That is...” Ding Hao suddenly saw that there were demons farming in the suburb of the city below.

“Dear God, has the Demon Clan also started doing farming work?”

Ding Hao was a little dumbfounded.

The Demon Clan had always been preying on animals. The meat-eating demons would eat wild beasts, fierce beasts, low-level demons, and humans for food, while the grass-eating demons would eat the plants in the wild nature. It was rare to see that some demons would be farming.

Soon, he saw large and small cities of different sizes on the vast ground below. Obviously, they were newly built in a short period. Therefore, they looked extremely clean and tidy, and they were neatly arranged. Looking down from the sky, they looked like neat grids.

“This...” Ding Hao didn’t know what to say.

This was because the construction structure of the Demon Clan was even more well-organized than that of the Human Clan’s provinces. The streets were orderly and wide, connecting different cities in all directions. It was like a giant highway network, and it was extremely convenient for people to travel.

On these wide roads, there were also many various kinds of contracting vehicles moving back and forth.

“They are transporting goods. And there’re caravans...” Ding Hao had a confused feeling. Looking at the construction on this land, he faintly sensed a trace of a modern atmosphere. He felt as if he were on Earth in his previous life.

“These are achieved under the policies implemented by Her Highness. Under her will, now all the demons in the Phoenix Province have moved out of the deep mountains and forests and begun to build and live in cities,” One-legged Ox King said with a hint of pride, “At first, some demons didn’t understand why she did this and even resisted a little, but soon it proved that Her Highness was wise and far-sighted. Now our lives are many times better than before. We don’t have to worry about food and clothing anymore!”

Ding Hao nodded secretly.

The new way of living was indeed more effective. This had not only been proven by the Infinite Human Clan but also by the thousands of years of historical verification on Earth in his previous life. For the Demon Clan, what the Great Phoenix Saint had promoted was equivalent to bringing them from the original tribe-living-state to modern society in an instant.

“Not only the survival but the life of the Demon Clan has also changed. Her Highness wants her people to break their bad habits and abandon the estrangement between tribes. She was personally in charge of the establishment of True Phoenix University, and it has been doing well for three years. The descendants of different tribes of the Demon Clan can be admitted and study there as long as they have a certain degree of talent and pass the test. They can study not only martial arts, but also agriculture, work, business, and war there...”

“Poof!”

Ding Hao was stunned.

“What did you say? University? True Phoenix University?” Ding Hao was surprised and asked in shock, “Is there any junior high school or senior high school here?”

One-legged Ox King paused and said, “Junior high school, senior high school? What are those? Besides True Phoenix University, there are all kinds of private schools. Her Highness once said that she would build 100,000 private exercises in the domain within ten years to help the demons learn and improve the wisdom of the people!”
