"So, how does my Chief Disciple compare to you?"

Inside the main hall, Mo Luo's voice, seemingly serious yet playful, suddenly rang out, like that of a matchmaker trying to bring people together.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian was taken aback. Looking at Mo Luo's somewhat serious expression, he hesitated for a moment before quickly clasping his hands in farewell and taking Mu Lingshan and the others away.

He wasn't sure if Mo Luo was genuinely entrusting Tang Xinlian to him or if it was just a test. To be on the safe side, he decided to retreat first.

When it comes to matters of the heart, you can't rush it.

Mo Luo stared at Lin Langtian's retreating figure, then suddenly burst into laughter. After a long while, the laughter gradually subsided, and he turned around, asking, "Brother Mu, what do you think?"

"I think it's a good match. They're a handsome couple, a perfect pair," Mu Lan nodded and said.

"Uh..." Upon hearing this, Mo Luo's forehead immediately went black. Tang Xinlian was his Chief Disciple, and he treated her like his own daughter.

The reason he said that was just a casual remark on a whim. If he were to actually marry Tang Xinlian off, he would inevitably feel a sense of loss, like an old father.

"Ahem, I'm asking what you think of this plan to hunt down the Evil Demon?" Mo Luo coughed lightly and asked again.

Mu Lan glanced at Mo Luo and then said, "Xu Xiu is very capable. Hua Chen of the Yuan Sect has not yet shown up, and his strength is unknown."

However, if the Yuan Sect truly has ties with the Evil Demon, then Hua Chen's strength is likely considerable, and Xinlian might not be able to stop these two.

"As for Lin Dong, whom you mentioned, although he withstood three of your moves, according to what you said in your telepathic message, it can only be considered one move."

In his first move, he used all his trump cards; in the next two moves, however, he employed some clever tricks—tricks that are clearly unacceptable in this Tournament.

Mo Luo nodded slightly. Lin Dong relied on the power of the Thunder Realm for his second move, and for his third move, he even summoned the inexplicable Blazing God Ancient Tablet.

This thing happens to be immune to the power of the Flame Ancestral Symbol, so the most powerful third move didn't cause him any damage. And these two methods are not very useful in this Tournament.

"Therefore, relying on the two of them to stop Xu Xiu and Hua Chen this time will be quite difficult. The most important thing is still Lin Langtian."

Upon hearing this, Mo Luo nodded, then looked in the direction Lin Langtian had left and said in a deep voice, "Do you think this kid might be like Symbol Ancestor, someone who doesn't belong to this world?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Lan was taken aback, and then a thoughtful expression appeared on her face.

As a great hero who saved billions of lives on the Heavenly Profound Continent, Symbol Ancestor is not only highly respected by the people, but also arouses the curiosity and speculation of many powerful people about his origins.

Among the countless speculations, the most widely circulated one is that the Symbol Ancestor, like the Yi Mo Race, does not belong to the Heavenly Profound Continent.

After all, the origin of the Symbol Ancestor was too mysterious and his methods were too powerful, unlike anything else in the Heavenly Profound Continent.

Lin Langtian's ability to replicate Devouring Ancestral Symbol is also unlike anything the Heavenly Profound Continent could do, which makes one think of the Symbol Ancestor.

Thinking of this, Mu Lan's eyes flickered slightly, and she pondered, "You mean, Lin Langtian might become the second Symbol Ancestor?"

"Hehe, who knows? After all, the means to create Ancestral Talisman are something only the Symbol Ancestor can possess..." Mo Luo Flame's eyes narrowed slightly as he spoke.

"Originally, my plan was to have Xinlian, Lin Dong, and Little Elephant King Zhou Ze was originally third on the Rookie Ranking, join forces, which would have made the plan safer."

However, with Lin Langtian now involved, our plan seems even more perfect.

"I hope we can kill more powerful Evil Demon this time. After all, the number of powerful humans who have died at the hands of Evil Demon has been increasing over the years. They are truly a despicable race..." Mu Lan said coldly.

"Don't worry, we'll teach these guys a lesson they won't forget."

Mo Luo nodded, making his decision. Then he looked up, and a chilling coldness surged in his crimson eyes.

"This time, I'm going to have a good showdown with those damned things, and through this, I should also make the powerful figures and forces around the world take notice of these dangerous things lurking in the shadows."

When Lin Langtian and his group walked out of the main hall, they saw Tang Xinlian, who had been so domineering and imposing, sitting on the stone steps, her fiery red hair with wavy curls hanging down, her silhouette captivating.

Around the main hall, there were many fully armed figures in armor, but as they passed by that fiery red figure, their footsteps involuntarily slowed down, and beneath their armor, one could see some longing gazes.

"Come and sit down."

Tang Xinlian casually waved her jade-like hand, and her melodious voice reached Lin Langtian's ears. After waving away the winking and precocious Mu Lingshan, he stepped forward and sat down beside her.

Looking at Tang Xinlian with her head turned to the side, her usual heroic spirit seemed to have weakened, replaced by a rare gentleness. This quality, when it appeared on her, was even more breathtaking.

"Master's plan this time is very dangerous. Those Evil Demon are very powerful." Tang Xinlian said softly, stroking a strand of her hair with her jade-like hand.

Lin Langtian nodded slightly. Tang Xinlian clearly knew a lot about the Evil Demon, probably from Mo Luo. He could also hear some worry in Tang Xinlian's voice.

Lin Langtian knew that Mo Luo's plan had indeed attracted some very powerful Evil Demon, including a rare Abyssal Demon King.

If it weren't for a powerful and reliable ally like Qing Zhi, the Flame God Palace alone would clearly be no match for them.

"The Evil Demon will be mobilized, but they probably won't come out in full force. If they did, they would be completely exposed to the world, and then the top experts in the world would join forces again," Lin Langtian advised.

"Those damned creatures should all be killed," Tang Xinlian murmured.

Lin Langtian was slightly taken aback. Although the Evil Demon were considered the common enemy of everyone in the world, Tang Xinlian's words seemed to convey a deeper hatred.

"My family, because of our ancestors, once sealed away a Evil Demon, and my family has been secretly guarding the seal ever since."

However, when I was very young, my family was massacred by mysterious people. Everyone except me was killed, and the sealed Evil Demon was rescued.

In the end, it was my master who rescued me from the pile of corpses..."Tang Xinlian smiled slightly, but that smile made people's hearts ache.

My condolences.

Lin Langtian recalled Tang Xinlian's painful experience, patted her shoulder, and said.

Tang Xinlian shook her head indifferently and said, "No matter what, I will protect the Flame God Palace. If those Evil Demon dare to destroy it, I will not hesitate to perish with them."

Lin Langtian gazed at Tang Xinlian's pretty face. The resolute look in her eyes and the unwavering determination to protect the Flame God Palace filled him with a sacred radiance.

This girl is indeed somewhat different.

After a moment of silence, Lin Langtian let out a soft breath, then smiled at Tang Xinlian and said, "Don't worry, I swear to you, those damned things will be driven out of this world sooner or later!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Xinlian nodded heavily. Then, she chuckled softly, staring intently at Lin Langtian's handsome face. After a moment, she gracefully rose and walked forward, her melodious laughter echoing around her.

"I believe you can do it, because of my intuition."

Lin Langtian looked at the girl who had regained her dashing and carefree demeanor and smiled slightly.

Over the next two weeks, the already bustling Huoyan City saw its popularity surge at an alarming rate.

In the Chaotic Demon Sea, powerful figures from all sides flocked to this place, making Huoyan City almost the most bustling place in the Chaotic Demon Sea.

With such a large number of powerful individuals gathering, the Huoyan City became somewhat chaotic, as the powerful individuals of the Chaotic Demon Sea were known for their arrogance and unruliness.

Although they were initially wary of the power of the Flame God Palace, as the number of powerful figures from all sides grew larger, various disputes also broke out, causing the city to become quite chaotic due to some random fighting.

However, this chaos did not last. When Tang Xinlian appeared with a large Enforcement Team that was powerful and orderly like an army, many people were frightened by the coldness that appeared on the girl's pretty face.

Tang Xinlian, the Fire Fairy of the Flame God Palace, is a very well-known figure in the Chaotic Demon Sea. Of course, her third-place ranking on the Rookie Ranking is enough to make some people who thought she was just a little girl carefully restrain their disrespect.

However, it must be said that Tang Xinlian does have some methods. In just a few days, the originally somewhat chaotic Huoyan City was directly suppressed by her and her Enforcement Team.

In an instant, the name of the Fire Fairy became incredibly popular again, making her the most talked-about figure in Huoyan City.

Whenever Tang Xinlian led the Enforcement Team out, quite a few busybodies would follow them, making it a rather amusing scene in Huoyan City and a topic of conversation for many people waiting for the Tournament to begin...

During this waiting period, Lin Langtian had a lot of free time. In his spare time, he would take Mu Lingshan and the others for a stroll around Huoyan City.

Besides, Tang Xinlian would often visit him in her spare time. Perhaps because of Mo Luo's previous teasing, Lin Langtian and Tang Xinlian's relationship became more and more harmonious, and there was also a hint of ambiguity between them.

Unfortunately, both of them were slow-paced. Although their relationship was getting closer, they hadn't yet broken through the unspoken barrier between them, which made Mu Lingshan, the onlooker, very anxious.

The days passed leisurely until a few days later, when Mu Lingshan stormed into Lin Langtian's room in a huff.

"What's wrong, little one? Who made you angry?" Lin Langtian asked curiously, seeing Mu Lingshan's unhappy expression.

This is Huoyan City, and Mu Lingshan's third grandfather Mu Lan, is also in the city. Who would dare to provoke this little princess?

Mu Lingshan pouted and said, "It's not that anyone provoked me, it's that someone provoked you, Bro Langtian."

"Me?" Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Who offended me? How come I don't know?"

"You idiot, Bro Langtian, someone stole your number one spot on the Rookie Ranking and you didn't even know it." As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Lingshan handed a golden scroll to Lin Langtian, which was the newly compiled Rookie Ranking of the Chaotic Demon Sea.

Upon receiving the scroll, and recalling what Mu Lingshan had said, Lin Langtian quickly looked towards the top spot on the list.

"Number one on the Rookie Ranking, Demon Shadow Assassin Liu Zhuang, record: killed the Sea Dragon Island Lord who had the strength of the Death Profound Stage Perfection."

"The Demon Shadow Assassin Liu Zhuang?"

Lin Langtian stared at the new Rookie Ranking who had pushed him down, and was first stunned, then his expression darkened.

He naturally didn't care about these empty titles, since being number one or not wouldn't bring him any benefits.

However, for some reason, Lin Langtian vaguely saw the shadow of the Yuan Sect in Liu Zhuang.

This guy is most likely from the Yuan Sect.

"The Death Profound Stage Perfection is at its peak, Yuan Sect has really put in a lot of effort..." Lin Langtian murmured, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Lin Langtian is now far more troublesome than Lin Dong in the original timeline. Therefore, Tian Yuanzi's Three Old Dogs have increased the strength of the experts they sent, and even sent out experts at the Death Profound Stage Perfection.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian also snorted coldly, "Liu Zhuang, I want to see just how much strength you have. And Tian Yuanzi, your doomsday is coming soon."

Lin Langtian is now at the Lesser Death Profound Stage Lesser Success and the Great Ascension of the Immortal Talisman Master. His Yuan Power and Mental Power are both quite impressive. Coupled with his powerful methods, he is not without the ability to fight even against Death Profound Stage Perfection opponent.

Therefore, although he knew that Liu Zhuang was Yuan Sect assassin, Lin Langtian was not afraid at all; on the contrary, he felt a little expectant.

"Bro Langtian, you must defeat this guy and take back first place!"

On the other side, Mu Lingshan waved her little fists and gritted her teeth, as if she had been robbed of first place.

"Hehe, I will." Seeing Mu Lingshan's indignant look, Lin Langtian smiled slightly, patted Mu Lingshan's head, and assured her.

Upon hearing this, Mu Lingshan nodded in satisfaction. After exchanging a few more words with Lin Langtian, she turned and left.

After Mu Lingshan left, Lin Langtian chuckled and shook his head. Just as he was about to put away the golden scroll in his hand, he saw a familiar name on it. His eyebrows immediately twitched, and his usually calm eyes showed a flicker of emotion.

"Lin Dong, ranked tenth on the Rookie Ranking, is at the peak of the Life Profound Stage Perfection and the Immortal Talisman Master Small Vehicle Peak. He is a member of the Dao Sect in the Eastern Xuan Region Thunder Sea Region, he single-handedly killed five Death Profound Stage Lesser Success. Due to the unknown nature of his methods, he is temporarily ranked tenth."

"Oh, so Lin Dong has finally come out of seclusion..."

Looking at the rankings on the Rookie Ranking, Lin Langtian found a comfortable seat and sat down, a slight smile playing on his lips.

It seems that after several months, Lin Dong has finally subdued the Thunder Ancestral Symbol. For him, possessing two Ancestral Talisman is like adding wings to a tiger, making him unstoppable.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian murmured, "It seems I'll be seeing Lin Dong again soon. Two years have passed; it's truly something to look forward to..."
