Seeing Li Ling frown, Nie Yin hesitated for a moment before saying, “I know your current cultivation level isn’t low. I hope you can watch my competition and give me some suggestions.”

Hearing Nie Yin’s lame excuse, Lei Peng tried his best not to laugh.

Fu Jiao frowned, as if she couldn’t understand Nie Yin’s actions. Hua Shang, who was sitting on the other side, laughed out loud.

Kong Rui looked at Nie Yin and thought for a moment before saying, “Our cultivation methods are different. My opinion won’t be of much help to you.”

After Kong Rui finished speaking, she reported to the Li family’s patriarch and left without looking back.

Lei Peng and Fu Jiao looked at each other awkwardly.

The people in the stands couldn’t hear their conversation clearly. They only knew that Li Ling had left Nie Yin and the others.

Hua Shang, on the other hand, was leisurely fanning himself. Under the bamboo hat, there was already a smile on his face.

When Kong Rui left the arena, she saw a group of people hurriedly running in a certain direction.

Kong Rui didn’t intend to join in the fun, but the little lion’s voice sounded in her ears. “Master, let’s go and see what happened!”

Kong Rui was hesitating when she heard someone beside her shout, “I heard that they caught a demon child! Let’s go take a look!”

When Kong Rui heard this, her expression changed and she immediately grabbed the person passing by.

The person who was suddenly grabbed turned around to glare at her. Only then did he realize that it was actually the famous Miss Li Ling of the Li family. That person instantly swallowed his words and put on a fawning smile. “Miss Li, what’s the matter?”

Kong Rui grabbed that person and asked anxiously, “What are they talking about? What happened?”

That person said excitedly, “I heard that the pavilion master of High Heaven Pavilion, Zi Xuan, captured a child from the Demon Clan. She hung him at the entrance of the Fragrant Garden!”

Kong Rui frowned and asked again, “Are you sure it’s a demon?”

That person immediately nodded heavily. “Pavilion Master Zi Xuan announced it herself!”

That person was about to say something when Kong Rui instantly disappeared.

Kong Rui quickly arrived at the Fragrant Garden and saw a dirty-looking seven or eight-year-old boy hanging upside down from a wooden pillar at the entrance.

Kong Rui could feel demonic energy surging on the boy’s body, but this boy was not a demon!

Did those people determine that the boy was a demon because of the demonic energy on his body?

Or had High Heaven Pavilion simply found a fake to show off their abilities?

Kong Rui didn’t want to think about this. Even if he was not a demon, that was still a life. How could he be treated like this?!

Kong Rui walked forward to see how the boy was doing.

At this moment, there was a commotion in the crowd.

Kong Rui followed everyone’s gaze and looked in the direction of the entrance of the Fragrant Garden.

On the steps, Zi Xuan was wearing a thin gauze dress. Her fair arm was exposed and was hanging on a man.

The man was dressed in white and had a handsome face, but his indignant expression showed his dissatisfaction with Zi Xuan’s actions.

Zi Xuan didn’t care about the man’s reaction. She placed a hand on the man’s shoulder as she looked at the crowd.

“It’s really lively today! Are you all here to admire my little prey?” Zi Xuan’s tone was charming and seductive.

Although some people in the crowd despised Yu Xuan’s behavior, most of them looked at her with covetous expressions.

Zi Xuan gently touched the man’s chest with one hand and glanced at the boy on the wooden pillar. “I’ll let the demon boy I hunted with great difficulty hang here for a day. When the people in the imperial capital have had enough marveling, High Heaven Pavilion will make it our mission to eliminate the Demon Clan. We’ll kill this demon at the entrance of Fragrance Park tomorrow at noon!”

Hearing Zi Xuan’s words, the bustling crowd suddenly fell silent.

High Heaven Pavilion was clearly looking down on the imperial capital!

Were they trying to establish their dominance in the imperial capital?

Seeing that the crowd was silent, Zi Xuan revealed a charming smile. “Don’t be afraid! I’ve already sealed this little demon beast. It won’t hurt you guys! This useless demon beast was actually running around in your imperial capital. To think your queen was still able to sleep peacefully in the palace!”
