Chapter 304 - 203: The Ancient Wilderness, the Ancient Demon

“You’re leaving so soon? Won’t you consider picking one? I could introduce you to a top-tier demon!”

After guiding Feng Qing’an on a tour around the Ten Thousand Demon Nation, Xiao Yi showed a look of surprise and regret when he heard that Feng Qing’an intended to leave. Although inwardly, he was relieved.

“I have already learned a lot today. I will certainly return when I have free time in the future!”

Feng Qing’an clearly stated that this definitely won’t be his last visit to the Ten Thousand Demon Nation.

“The Imperial Examination is imminent, I must focus on my preparations, I can’t waste time here!”

Upon hearing Feng Qing’an’s reason for leaving, Xiao Yi wanted to laugh. News from the Capital had already spread everywhere,

“You worry too much. You’re bound to top the Imperial Examination, even if you handed in a blank sheet, you would still be first!”

“A blank sheet can top the examination?”

Feng Qing’an raised an eyebrow, recalling the news he had heard from Zhao the housekeeper before coming here,

“Could it be that this year’s Imperial Examination is tailor-made for me? Was the postponement of the exam also because of me?”

“The Imperial Examination can’t be held for one person, but the weight of you alone surpasses all other candidates, so indeed, the exam was postponed because of you!”

Xiao Yi laughed, wondering if Feng Qing’an had realized what his existence meant for Da Jin.

Unlike the one who could conquer the world with his sword, this Second Son had a unique talent. Even without making an effort, his travels had, within a short time, resulted in an undeniable power.

This Second Son could make demons break through racial boundaries in a very short time, and also make them reach their peak strength at an unprecedently rapid pace.

The black wolf lying at his feet, emitting a strong demonic Qi, was the best proof. According to the investigation of the Xiao Family, the wolf was only offspring of a domestic dog and a wild wolf a few years ago, not even a real wild wolf.

Although the princess had helped a bit by giving it a Ghost Wolf Demon Pill, a normal wolf-dog with such mundane bloodline wouldn’t be able to absorb the Demon Pill and rise in strength in less than a hundred years.

Even the alchemist who had turned the Ghost Wolf Inner Dan into a pill had confirmed that such a transformative pill would normally require an ordinary demon to adapt for a Jiazi (60 years).

Yet, against all odds, a wolf-dog with a bloodline so mediocre people wouldn’t even give it a second look went against nature and became a superior demon in just a few years.

The hard truth was difficult to ignore, inevitably leading to speculation and hidden agendas.

Superior demons were apparently not in short supply. As long as one searched diligently within the vast mountain ranges and forests, one could always find a few.

But what connection did the number of superior demons have with Da Jin, which was dominated by the Human Race? Even if these superior demons maintained a friendly attitude, they would never side with humans.

A vast majority of superior demons harbored hostility towards humans. Da Jin at present is prosperous and blessed by various deities, hence its strength is at its peak.

That’s why the ferocious demons in deep mountains maintained restraint, not daring to make trouble. But once the national strength weakens, they would become a calamity for living creatures.

There may be many superior demons. At least there are around fifty in Da Jin, but only a handful of them loyally serve humans and wholeheartedly assist the Human Race.

These loyal superior demons were raised by humans, and their achievements were because of human nurturing.

Forgoing other places, Xiao Family alone had a few of them, and even one more fierce existence. Yet, compared to humans, a demon’s growth rate was despairingly slow.

Just like the demon ancestor revered by the Xiao family was, he followed the founder in adventures in his youth. But he wasn’t yet mature when the founder died.

It was only until the end of the fifth generation head’s life that the living ancestor broke through the realm and attained the expected level. By then, the founder’s grave had turned into an ancient grove.

Therefore, for the short-lived humans, to raise a superior demon, they should be prepared to put in the effort of several generations. This only applies to cultivation families like Xiao Family.

Ordinary families shouldn’t dream about it. Raising a demon can easily lead to power imbalance, resulting in the servant overpowering the master, leading to family extinction.

Such incidents had occurred more than once. Of course, there were loyal demons who would never betray their masters, but one must consider the worst scenario in family succession, not relying on unrealistic fantasies.

Because raising a completely loyal superior demon is so difficult, ordinary families don’t even consider it.

Compared to investing resources on demons, isn’t it more reliable to invest in their own people? Most people wish to enjoy the shade under the tree planted by their ancestors, rather than being the ones to plant the tree.

Therefore, it was completely normal for the Da Jin imperial court to have its own thoughts when the Second Son, who supposedly could make demons grow rapidly within a short time, appeared.

Although such a talent sounded incredible, if it was actually a reincarnated Heavenly person, then everything made sense. As for the Heavenly person, what’s surprising about training a few superior demons in a short time? It’s ordinary!
