Answers and the Tournament Begins

"So this is the infamous Fire Fairy of the Chaotic Demon Sea? She truly lives up to her reputation..."

As Tang Xinlian appeared, the three beauties of the Gu Clan also surrounded Lin Langtian, their beautiful eyes filled with admiration as they looked at him.

Tang Xinlian, as the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple of the Hall Master the Flame God Palace, is not only exceptionally beautiful and known as the Fire Fairy, but also the only woman among the top ten on the Rookie Ranking. She is the object of worship for countless girls in the Chaotic Demon Sea.

Therefore, seeing Tang Xinlian in person now made the Three Gu Girls feel as if they had met a star.

Seeing how popular Tang Xinlian was among the women, Lin Langtian was once again impressed by her charm. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Tang Xinlian gracefully walk towards him.

In this pavilion, Tang Xinlian was undoubtedly the focus of attention. When everyone saw her arrive at the welcoming pavilion and walk directly toward Lin Langtian, they all raised their eyebrows.

Even the conversations subsided, and everyone's gaze turned in this direction. Lin Dong, who was standing next to Lin Langtian, was also taken aback, looking thoughtfully at Lin Langtian and Tang Xinlian.

Tang Xinlian stopped in front of Lin Langtian, her bright eyes fixed on him.

"Xinlian, is there something you need?" Lin Langtian felt a little uncomfortable under her somewhat cold gaze, so he immediately chuckled awkwardly.

For some reason, Tang Xinlian is acting like a Tigress right now.

"What are you... doing?" Tang Xinlian raised her beautiful eyebrows, then glanced at the Three Gu Girls and questioned them.

Although she didn't think Lin Langtian had any deep relationship with these three good-looking women, Tang Xinlian still felt a little uncomfortable seeing them chatting and laughing.

"Uh..." Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian was taken aback, but then he saw Tang Xinlian's expression and seemed to have a vague understanding.

Is this Tigress jealous?

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian also had a headache. After spending time together, he had come to understand Tang Xinlian better and better.

Tang Xinlian is known as the Fire Fairy. Besides her stunning beauty, her personality is just as her name suggests. She is neither as aloof as Ling Qingzhu nor as gentle Ying Xiaoxiao. Instead, she is quite frank, straightforward, and even fiery, never beating around the bush.

"You're so good at flirting." Tang Xinlian glanced at Lin Langtian, seemingly a little jealous, and said, "But I never noticed before."

Lin Langtian was speechless. It turned out that Tang Xinlian was a little unhappy because he wasn't usually proactive.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian immediately shut his mouth.

At this point, the more he explained, the more he ignited Tang Xinlian's anger. As for matters of the heart, he had little experience in either his past or present life, so he preferred to proceed gradually. Unexpectedly, this only provoked Tang Xinlian's dissatisfaction.

"Sister Xinlian, you've misunderstood Bro Langtian. These three sisters from the Gu Clan are friends brought by Brother Lin Dong." At this moment, Mu Lingshan quickly stepped forward and took Tang Xinlian's hand to help Lin Langtian out of the predicament.

"Is that so..." Upon hearing this, the cold expression on Tang Xinlian's pretty face slowly faded, but she still didn't give Lin Langtian a friendly look, obviously because the latter hadn't given her a definite relationship.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian gave a wry smile. However, with everyone watching, there were some things he couldn't say, so he quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, Xinlian, let me introduce you. This is my cousin, Lin Dong, whom Lord Moro mentioned before. The three girls beside him are from the Gu family of the Tianfeng Sea Region of the Chaotic Demon Sea."

"Oh, so you are Lin Dong." Upon hearing this, Tang Xinlian temporarily suppressed her resentment towards Lin Langtian, then looked at Lin Dong beside her. Only then did she notice that this person was the young man who obtained the Thunder Ancestral Symbol from her teacher, so she raised her pretty eyebrows slightly.

"It doesn't seem as powerful as you guys made it out to be..."

As soon as she finished speaking, a look of disappointment appeared in her eyes. This Lin Dong hadn't even reached the Death Profound Stage. Was he really the peerless genius that Lin Langtian had described as being no less than him?

"Xinlian, although Dong Bro is slightly weaker now, his combat strength is definitely not inferior to yours. Don't underestimate him." Lin Langtian saw the contempt in Tang Xinlian's eyes and quickly said.

Upon hearing Lin Langtian's words, Tang Xinlian was taken aback, but then slowly withdrew the disdain in her eyes. After all, in her heart, Lin Langtian would never deceive her.

"Hello, I am Tang Xinlian from the Flame God Palace. Please take care of me in the future." Tang Xinlian shrugged at Lin Dong and smiled.

Regardless, the group is currently on the same side, so although Tang Xinlian has some doubts about Lin Dong's strength, she doesn't have any ill intentions.

Of course, in this timeline, she probably wouldn't develop any feelings of affection for Lin Dong anymore, since someone else had already taken her heart.

"Hello."

Lin Dong nodded to Tang Xinlian, but then his eyes couldn't help but glance at Lin Langtian beside him.

His intuition told him that there seemed to be an abnormal relationship between his Bro Langtian and this Fire Fairy.

While Lin Dong was pondering, Tang Xinlian spoke up again, "Since you've come to Huoyan City, why don't you meet your teacher? He's been talking about you these past few days."

"Oh, Senior Mo Luo." Upon hearing this, Lin Dong nodded. Mo Luo had helped him a great deal in the process of subduing the Thunder Ancestral Symbol, so now that he was in Huoyan City, he naturally had to pay him a visit.

Seeing that Lin Dong agreed, Tang Xinlian waved her hand, and several Fire Armor Guard came out to guide Lin Dong to the Flame God Main Hall.

As for Tang Xinlian, she exchanged a glance with Lin Langtian, and then, amidst many envious gazes, the two walked out of the Guest Welcome Pavilion together.

In a magnificent pavilion in the city, Lin Langtian leaned against the window railing, his gaze slowly sweeping over the vast city, which was bustling with activity.

Beside her stood a slender woman in red soft armor, none other than Tang Xinlian.

At this moment, Tang Xinlian's heroic spirit disappeared, replaced by a softer demeanor. This quality seemed to only appear when she was facing Lin Langtian.

Lin Langtian had a vague idea of what was going on when Tang Xinlian called him out but didn't say anything, but he tacitly refrained from breaking the silence.

So the two stood side by side, not saying a word, but feeling a rare sense of ease between them, like lovers relying on each other in a post-apocalyptic world.

After a long while, as dusk gradually fell, a ray of sunset shone on Tang Xinlian's graceful figure, making her look like a blazing fairy, indescribably beautiful.

Even Lin Langtian couldn't help but look at Tang Xinlian, only to find that her red hair had fallen down at some point.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian was about to help her smooth it up when he bumped into Tang Xinlian's delicate hand. Although he quickly withdrew it, he still subconsciously met Tang Xinlian's bright and beautiful eyes.

When Lin Langtian met Tang Xinlian's gaze, the tenderness in her eyes deepened. Then, she gently bit her red lips with her silver teeth, as if opening her heart, and said.

"I understand your concerns, and now is not the right time, so after the Thunder Hegemony Competition ends, I hope... I can get your answer."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Xinlian turned and left, leaving Lin Langtian with a tall and slender, captivating silhouette.

Upon seeing this, Lin Langtian was taken aback, stood up for a while, and then sighed softly.

He naturally knew what answer Tang Xinlian wanted, and he greatly admired and even had a good impression of this woman who dared to love and hate.

However, Mo Luo's plan was imminent. Although Lin Langtian thought the plan was foolproof, the Evil Demon were treacherous, and who knew what might happen? Therefore, Lin Langtian's thoughts were mostly focused on this aspect.

Moreover, besides Ling Qingzhu, the gentle and quiet Ying Xiaoxiao often appeared in his mind as well.

Given Fire Fairy 'Tang Xinlian domineering and assertive nature, would she accept that he has other women?

"Sigh, let's just take it one step at a time," Lin Langtian, shaking his head.

Five days later, in Huoyan City.

Today, the Tournament begins, and Huoyan City is bustling with excitement.

This Tournament is the grandest event in the Chaotic Demon Sea in the past decade. Just imagining its scale is enough to get anyone's blood pumping.

On a pavilion near the city center, Lin Langtian, Lin Dong, Mu Lingshan, the Three Gu Girls, and others gathered together, their gazes fixed on a magnificent and imposing palace complex in the distance.

That place was the headquarters of the Flame God Palace.

The sky surrounding this palace is now filled with a dense sea of people, and the deafening noise spreads far and wide, even shaking away the clouds in the sky.

"That's truly magnificent!"

Such a grand occasion prompted Lin Dong, who was standing beside Lin Langtian, to exclaim in admiration.

"The Flame God Palace is a top-tier power in the Chaotic Demon Sea, and with the allure of the Thunder Ancestral Symbol, its appeal is naturally quite terrifying," Lin Langtian said with a smile.

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone's hearts stirred. Suddenly, a large number of crimson figures roared out from the seemingly endless Flame God Palace, eventually standing in the sky like a sea of fire.

It was an army of nearly a thousand men, all of whom were armed with giant spears and clad in crimson armor.

Thousands of powerful auras converged, and the oppressive force caused countless powerful figures in the sky to change color, and some of them even restrained their arrogance.

"Those are the Fire God Guard of the Flame God Palace. It is said that they are one of the most powerful forces in the Flame God Palace, and they maintain a number of one thousand all year round. Whenever a new person enters, one person will definitely be eliminated," Mu Lingshan introduced.

Lin Langtian nodded. No wonder this group was so powerful; it turned out they had such fierce competition. The Flame God Palace truly lived up to its reputation.

"Oh, that's Sister Xinlian!" Mu Lingshan exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Langtian was slightly taken aback. Following the direction of his gaze, he indeed saw a slender figure standing in mid-air at the very front of the Fire God Guard.

The woman was tall and slender, her fiery red soft armor outlining her captivating curves. Her striking long, wavy red hair made her as attractive and captivating as a flame.

That dashing and heroic appearance—who else could it be but the Fire Fairy Tang Xinlian?

At this moment, she was also tightly gripping a Crimson Spear with a unique design.

Phoenix wings spread out on the spear shaft, and at the tip of the spear is a Flame Phoenix soaring high, its sharp beak gleaming with a chilling light.

This is a magnificent yet dangerous weapon.

She stood alone at the forefront of the Fire God Guard, and although behind her was a group of elite troops as fierce as wolves and tigers, no one could feel a trace of feminine softness from her.

This was a fierce army led by a woman who was both charming and heroic, yet no one felt that their coordination was strange. It was as if it was only natural for that woman to possess such a spirit.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian nodded. If we were to talk about this kind of leadership ability, among the women he had met over the years, Tang Xinlian would probably be the best, and even Ying Xiaoxiao of the Dao Sect would be a notch below her.

After Tang Xinlian appeared, Lin Langtian could clearly feel that countless gazes in the sky were focused on her, and those gazes were filled with amazement.

She is undoubtedly the focus of attention in this world.

"Sister Xinlian is truly impressive," said the beautiful woman who was the head of the Gu Clan, with envy.

For a woman, especially a beautiful one, to achieve this is no small feat.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian couldn't help but recall Tang Xinlian asking him for an answer a few days ago, and a bitter smile appeared on his lips.

Yes, the Fire Fairy is indeed majestic and domineering...

In the direction of the Flame God Palace, after the situation of the Fire God Guard stabilized, another towering red light suddenly swept out.

Within that red light, a tall man draped in a crimson cloak, exuding an imposing aura, appeared out of thin air.

The moment he appeared, the temperature of the world suddenly soared, and clusters of flames emerged from the space around him. At this moment, he seemed to be the king of fire.

The clamor of heaven and earth subsided quietly under the man's terrifying pressure. Even the most unruly and powerful individuals showed a hint of awe in their eyes when gazing at that tall and muscular figure.

Mo Luo, the Hall Master the Flame God Palace and the master of the Flame Ancestral Symbol.

Mo Luo stood amidst a sea of fire, his crimson eyes slowly sweeping across the heavens and earth, exuding an aura of imperial power.

"First of all, thank you all for coming to participate in the Tournament hosted by my Flame God Palace. There aren't many rules for the competition."

The victor reigns supreme, and the ultimate winner will be the owner of the Thunder Ancestral Symbol.

Mo Luo's powerful and majestic voice echoed through the sky, causing a painful ache in people's eardrums.

Call out!

Mo Luo looked around at the sky and made a gesture with his hand. A beam of crimson light shot out from his hand and then transformed into a giant crimson mirror about ten thousand feet in size in the sky.

The mirror rippled, revealing a vast expanse of green mountains and land; the mirror itself contained Qian Kun within it.

"This is the Boundless Mirror of my Flame God Palace. It contains its own space and will also be the venue for the Tournament. Within this Boundless Mirror is a Boundless Mountain, which will be your final battlefield."

As Mo Luo's voice faded, the colossal mirror rippled, revealing an indescribably majestic mountain that stood like a pillar supporting the heavens.

"The Thunder Ancestral Symbol is located atop Boundless Mountain!"
