Unsure of Feng's victory or defeat.
Li Hao was somewhat worried in his heart, but considering Feng's peerless technique, his ability to escape from danger was unmatched even by the Second Master, the demon probably hadn't been able to harm him.
As Li Hao waited and contemplated, a light laughter suddenly came:
"Kid, I told you to hang on for a quarter of an hour, but look at you, you actually went ahead and beheaded that little Demon King."
Li Hao turned to look and saw a plainly dressed figure appear behind him, his clothes were somewhat tattered, and the edges were stained with blood, but it seemed not to be his own.
Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately asked, "What about that demon?"
"Ran away."
Feng Boping said casually, "Although I could catch up, it would take me away from here, and once at the border, it's hard to say."
"It's good that you're unharmed."
Li Hao said with a smile, not minding the life or death of that Demon King. If it was not killed today, it could be killed in the future. Given time, he would be capable of dealing with it himself.
"You're worried about me, kid? Your killing that little Demon King exposed its weakness, allowing me to severely injure it; otherwise, it might have gone crazy trying to kill you."
Feng Boping laughed.
With a few words, Li Hao could imagine how intense the battle had been on Feng's side when he was fighting.
"Judging by the little Demon King's title, the Demon King is mostly from the Wan Shan side. I didn't expect there to be two Great Demon Kings in Wan Shan, it seems some information isn't very accurate," Li Hao said.
Feng Boping nodded slightly, "If the Demon King doesn't show up and deliberately hides, it's not easy to detect."
Speaking of this, he glanced at Li Hao, "You also need to quickly increase your strength, kid. In half a year, there might be trouble coming."
Li Hao was slightly taken aback, then immediately understood the meaning of Feng's words, his eyes solemn.
The news of slaying this little Demon King today would certainly spread among the demons and reach that Wan Shan Demon King.
If there were only that Wan Shan Demon King, Feng's protection wouldn't be feared, but now with two Demon Kings, once Song Qiumo left in half a year. the other party was likely to choose that time to attack.
If the other party was even more desperate, they might attack soon.
Regardless of which scenario, a feud with that Wan Shan Demon King was now established.
"Half a year, huh..."
Li Hao sighed. If he gave up pursuing the Grandmaster Extreme Boundary, in half a year's time, focusing on his enlightenment, he might reach Spiritual Awakening and step into the Three Immortals Peak or even the Four Stands Realm.
But by missing the Grandmaster Extreme Boundary and turning back to refine his Dao heart afterward, it would be difficult to achieve with a fragmented Dao heart.
...
...
Feng's figure disappeared again, hiding in the shadows.
Li Hao also returned to the Debate Platform, to meet Ren Qianqian.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
Ren Qianqian hurriedly expressed her concern upon seeing Li Hao.
Li Hao's complexion was somewhat pale and didn't look good, the strain he had suppressed with his physique was beginning to show.
After all, he had faced challenges from grandmasters all over the world, slain a little Demon King at the Three Immortals Peak, and cut down nearly a hundred thousand demon hordes, the toll was too great.
"I'm fine, I just need to rest."
Li Hao reassured Ren Qianqian and then sat down to recover.
Before long, grandmasters returned one after another. Seeing Li Hao resting there, their expressions turned serious, and many came forward to thank him, all having been saved by Li Hao's reinforcements.
Li Hao's impartial assistance won him the solemn respect and admiration of these grandmasters, inspiring respect and admiration within them.
In addition to his exceptional talent, this young man's character was equally admirable.
The other grandmasters also heard about Li Hao single-handedly defending one side of the city wall, annihilating a hundred thousand demons, and then moving to aid other battlefields. They all looked at this young man with complex expressions in their eyes.
A prodigy of the age, not even characters fabricated in folktales could aspire to the level of the young man before them.
"Young Master Li, please forgive my previous rudeness. Thank you for your magnanimity," Zhou Haitang stepped forward and bowed slightly to Li Hao.
For a grandmaster, this was the highest form of courtesy.
Li Hao frowned slightly and said indifferently, "I am not surnamed Li. Do not call me by that surname anymore; my surname is Ji!"
Hearing the young man's words, the crowd froze for a moment, then recalled the sensational fight in Qingzhou City and their expressions changed, remembering that this talented young man had cut ties with the Li Family.
They had previously assumed it was just a temporary act of emotion.
Once the young man encountered obstacles and difficulties outside, he would understand the protection the Divine General Mansion offered him and would inevitably choose to return.
But now, it seemed this young man was no longer a caged bird.
To describe him as a genius was becoming somewhat inaccurate; he had already become a first-class powerhouse capable of slaying great demons alone!
Invincible among grandmasters, slaying the little Demon King, just these two points were enough to show that he needed no protection and could hold his own.
For a moment, everyone was left speechless.
The process and reasons for that great battle were many and varied, and they were unaware, but what happened today they had witnessed with their own eyes, they could not imagine what could have led the Li Family to treat such an extraordinary prodigy in such a manner.
To the point of forcing him to renounce his surname and leave the family.
Zhou Haitang was slightly startled, looking somewhat embarrassed, nodded and set the topic aside:
"In the future, if you have a need, you can always write to Iron Sword Peak or Pear Blossom Sect; I'll remember this favor!"
Li Hao nodded slightly, accepting the offer.
While he may not need it, no one can be sure about the future.
The other grandmasters also came up to thank Li Hao one by one, avoiding calling him by his former surname as Li Hao preferred. Instead, they referred to him simply as Young Master Hao.
