I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 697 The Ancestor Takes Action
"Haha, so you're Ziying's daughter! No wonder you look so alike!" Xia Daoming laughed.

"Yes, yes, my grand-disciple's name is Xiao Liezhao!" Xiao Liezhao said excitedly.

When the old demon Cangxuan saw Xia Daoming and Xiao Liezhao recognize each other, his expression changed several times, but in the end he still waved his hand.

Upon seeing this, the four demon generals all transformed back into human form and retreated to the side of the Azure Hawk Demon.

Taking advantage of the moment, Xiao Liezhao conjured a burst of fire and flew down in front of Xia Daoming.

"Disciple Xiao Liezhao pays respects to Grandmaster!" Xiao Liezhao knelt in mid-air and bowed three times respectfully.

"Alright, alright, please get up!" Xia Daoming said with a smile.

"Yes!" Xiao Liezhao replied.

Just as he stood up, Xiao Liezhao suddenly remembered something, his face showing anxiety, and he blurted out, "Grandmaster, where is my grandfather? Didn't he come back with you?"

"He's fine, he'll be there soon." Xia Daoming saw Xiao Liezhao's anxious expression and replied casually with an approving look in his eyes. Then he looked up at the Cangxuan Old Demon.

"Since you and Xiao Liezhao are grandfather and grandson, let's drop this matter today!" Cangxuan Old Demon said with a gloomy face as he faced Xia Daoming's gaze.

"You bullied my grand-disciple, how can you just let it go like that!" Xia Daoming said coldly.

"Then what do you want? You're only at the Tenth Realm. Even if we were to fight, it would only result in mutual destruction! Moreover, I, the Cliff Lord, am deeply favored by the Azure Feather Eagle King. Not to mention you, even if the City God and the Provincial Inspector General came in person, they wouldn't dare to be presumptuous in front of me!" Upon hearing this, the Azure Buzzard Demon's face grew even more gloomy.

“Grandmaster, let’s just forget about it! That Azure Feather Eagle King is rumored to be a powerful demon with the potential to become a Golden Immortal, and he’s very protective of his own. Anyway, your grand-disciple didn’t suffer any loss.” Xiao Liezhao whispered to Xia Daoming.

Upon hearing this, the old demon Cangxuan couldn't help but reveal a hint of pride and smugness on her face, as if she were the Azure Feather Eagle King.

Xia Daoming, however, acted as if he hadn't heard, pointed at the Cangxuan Old Demon, and said to Xiao Liezhao, "This demon does have some skill and potential. How about we capture her for you to use as a mount, Master?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Liezhao's mouth dropped open in astonishment, and he was momentarily speechless.

"I'm so angry! Kid, you will pay the price for your arrogant words!" Upon hearing this, the old demon Cangxuan was so angry that he almost blew smoke from his seven orifices. He pointed at Xia Daoming, his eyes flashing with ferocity.

If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Liezhao was powerful and Xia Daoming was a Tenth-Rank True Immortal, and that she would most likely lose in a fight, she would have already unleashed her immortal treasure again and attacked Xia Daoming.

"I'm not killing you today, but only making you a mount for my grand-disciple. That's your good fortune, and you still don't know what's good for you!" Xia Daoming said calmly.

Xiao Liezhao's expression grew even more astonished upon hearing this.

To avoid causing Lu Ziying and Xiao Xuan to worry and act impulsively after hearing this, Yue Huang did not mention Xiao Hongyi's solo journey into Lieyao Mountain to seek the path of the Golden Immortal, or Xia Daoming's rescue of him.

They only said that Xiao Hongyi and Xia Daoming had some things to take care of and would be back later.

As for Xia Daoming's specifics, Yue Huang didn't say anything more.

We'll have to wait until he comes back to discuss everything.

He only mentioned a few times that he is very capable now, but he didn't specify just how capable.

In fact, Yue Huang wasn't very clear either.

Xiao Liezhao was straightforward and simple-minded. He didn't think much of it when he heard this. Since his grandmaster said that his grandmaster was powerful, then he must be powerful.

Now that he saw that his master was at the tenth level of cultivation, Xiao Liezhao, who was straightforward and simple-minded, did not think much of it and regarded him as an eleventh-level true immortal.

Because she herself could fight against opponents of higher levels, she assumed that her grandmaster must also be able to fight against opponents of higher levels.

As for the Twelve True Immortals, she didn't dare to even think about it.

After all, that was a realm where she had glimpsed a trace of the secrets of the Golden Immortal realm, a realm that even her father and mother, who were at the eleventh level of cultivation, could not surpass.

Therefore, Xia Daoming's complete disregard for the Azure Feather Eagle King and his claim to capture the Azure Buzzard Demon as her mount was somewhat unbelievable and caught her completely off guard. "I'm so angry! I'm standing right here, and I want to see how you're going to capture me as a mount!" The Azure Buzzard Demon was so angry that its mouth twisted into a crook.

"Very well!" Xia Daoming smiled faintly, then raised his hand and grabbed at the Cangxuan Old Demon from a distance.

Upon seeing this, the old demon Cangxuan revealed a disdainful and mocking expression.

The four subordinates of the Azure Hawk Demon all burst into laughter.

Xiao Liezhao looked somewhat embarrassed.

We are all True Immortals of the Tenth Level, how could we just grab someone from a distance like that!
This is just like the house we played when we were kids!

But in the blink of an eye, the laughter of the four henchmen of the Azure Hawk Demon came to an abrupt end.

The old hawk demon's eyes showed fear, and it instantly transformed into its true form as a hawk, spreading its wings to escape.

A gigantic hand, capable of blotting out the sky, appeared above the Cangxuan Old Demon the instant Xia Daoming raised his hand.

A terrifying pressure enveloped the heavens and the earth, causing the surrounding space to tremble and distort the light, as if it could not withstand the pressure and was about to collapse.

"Where do you think you're going! Surrender now!"

Just as the azure giant eagle spread its wings, the colossal hand that blotted out the sky slammed down.

"Oh!"

The azure giant eagle was slammed to the ground by a palm strike, and then heavily pressed down on the ground by that giant palm.

Not only was the azure giant eagle struck and fell to the ground, but her four subordinates were also suppressed under her palm.

"This..." Xiao Liezhao's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

She never dreamed that her grandmaster could suppress all five demons with just a wave of his hand.

"Immortal, spare me! Spare me!" The once arrogant and domineering Cangxuan demon was now terrified and begged for mercy repeatedly.

"Release your spirit, and I'll place a restriction on you. Then, obediently become my grand-disciple's mount, and I might spare your life. Otherwise, I'll take your life right now!" Xia Daoming said calmly.

As he spoke, a chilling killing intent emanated from the giant palm, penetrating directly into the soul and consciousness of the Cangxuan Old Demon.

"This old servant will release his divine soul now, release his divine soul now!" the old demon Cangxuan said tremblingly.

Having said that, the old demon released his divine soul.

Seeing this, Xia Daoming pointed his finger between her eyebrows, and a very faint phantom image of a hawk was extracted from her.

Then Xia Daoming took out a jade talisman, imbued the illusory image of the eagle into it, and drew several sealing restrictions on it. He then handed it to Xiao Liezhao, saying, "Drip a drop of blood on it and refine it. From now on, if this demon dares to disobey your orders, crush this talisman, and her soul will be scattered!"

"Thank you for your generous gift, Grandmaster!" Xiao Liezhao immediately knelt down and presented the jade talisman with both hands.

After receiving the jade talisman, Xiao Liezhao remembered something and quickly took out a wine jar that looked very antique from his storage ring.

“Grandmaster, this is Xuanli Drunken Moon Elixir. I obtained an ancient map left by the Xuanyue Li Clan by chance, and then dug up the place recorded on the map. I brought it here to show my respect to you, Grandmaster.” Xiao Liezhao respectfully presented it with both hands.

Legend has it that the Xuanli Drunken Moon Wine is a divine brew made by the Xuanli Clan from spiritual fruits and sweet dew collected under the moon, taking hundreds or even thousands of years to complete. It is a rare wine renowned throughout the Desolate Immortal Realm.

Later, the Xuan Yue Li clan suffered a great calamity and is now hard to find. Xuan Li Zui Yue Jiang has gradually become a rare and exquisite celestial brew, and a single jar is hard to come by.

　That concludes today's update.
