Following this loud and clear voice, a figure like a falling flame quietly appeared beside Yao Yue and lifted up Yao Yue's kneeling body.
Yao Yue didn't need to guess to know that Huo Yu had returned.
The Firehawk King's aura was like the sky. The old Emperor and He Wei, who was not far away, felt a great pressure. They felt like they were kneeling down. It was as if a large rock was pressing down on their chests. They felt extremely uncomfortable. Large beads of sweat flowed down their faces.
Yao Yue wasn't affected by the pressure. When he saw the old emperor and He Wei about to kneel, he hurriedly tried to persuade the Firehawk Emperor, "Firehawk Emperor, don't do this!"
Yao Yue's persuasion was powerless. Yao Yue had never liked humans. He didn't think that the Firehawk Emperor would let them go.
"Hmph!"
The Firehawk Emperor snorted coldly. The old emperor and He Wei felt a sweetness in their throats as they were sent flying and coughed up blood.
Two innate Yuan Kings were sent flying and coughing up blood just like that. How powerful was the Firehawk Emperor?
The Firehawk Emperor ignored the old emperor and He Wei and said sternly to Yao Yue, "My Firehawk Clan may not be an imperial clan, but you already have the status of a prince. In the future, even before the Demon Emperor, do not kneel so easily. Do you understand?"
The Firehawk Emperor didn't release his aura at Yao Yue, but the pressure he exerted on Yao Yue was definitely the most terrifying he had ever felt since Yao Yue's debut. Even his grandfather's Long Tianba hadn't reached this level.
This was the might of an emperor. Once angered, corpses would litter the land.
Yao Yue hurriedly replied, "Yes, Firehawk Emperor!"
The Firehawk Emperor understood Yao Yue's situation, so he didn't blame Yao Yue too much. Instead, he said, "Come with me. I will teach you the Firehawk Clan's inheritance."
Without waiting for Yao Yue's reply, he grabbed Yao Yue's shoulder and flew away.
By the time Yao Yue reacted, he and the Fire Hawk Emperor had already landed on the peak of Fox Demon Mountain!
"So, so fast!" Yao Yue exclaimed in her mind.
Although he wasn't far from Fox Demon Mountain, Fox Demon Mountain was thousands of feet tall. Even if he flew at full speed, it would take him a while to reach the top. But with the Firehawk Emperor carrying him, it only took him the blink of an eye!
"Become a king, become an emperor!
Every step was a world of difference. It was indeed the soil of heaven and earth!
One day, I will reach that level too! "Yao Yue made a firm resolution in her heart.
The Fire Hawk Emperor seemed to have seen through Yao Yue's thoughts and said, "As long as you work hard, you will reach the same level as me one day. You might even surpass me!"
After pausing for a moment, he said, "Calm your Qi and focus your mind. Guard your demon core. I will begin the transmission now!"
Yao Yue quickly did as he was told. He immediately calmed his Qi and focused his mind. At the same time, he discarded all distracting thoughts and focused only on his demon core, waiting for the Fire Hawk Emperor to transmit his cultivation.
A while later, the Fire Hawk Emperor forced out a drop of essence blood from his forehead and pointed it at Yao Yue's forehead.
The drop of essence blood seeped into Yao Yue's forehead and was rapidly absorbed by Yao Yue's demon core.
Immediately, the innate demonic technique of the Fire Hawk Clan's Demon King appeared in Yao Yue's mind. A Fire Hawk Emperor displayed its various fighting techniques in his mind, as well as the complete process of its breathing.
This was much more detailed and complete than the demonic beast illusions Yao Yue experienced when he absorbed demonic blood and refined demonic materials.
This part of the inheritance was deeply imprinted in Yao Yue's demon core. It would not be forgotten with the passage of time.
At the same time, the drop of Demon Emperor blood seeped into Yao Yue's blood in an attempt to increase the purity of Yao Yue's blood.
However, the drop of blood was devoured by Yao Yue's blood, causing the power of Yao Yue's blood to grow even stronger. However, this did not strengthen his Fire Hawk Clan's bloodline. Instead, it was the mysterious bloodline of the Imperial Clan that he originally possessed.
Even now, Yao Yue still could not understand this mysterious demonic blood.
When Yao Yue regained his senses, the Fire Hawk Emperor asked, "Did you learn anything?"
Yao Yue nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you, Fire Hawk Emperor."
Although he could also obtain demonic techniques by absorbing the blood of the Fire Hawk Clan, how could he obtain a complete set of demonic techniques like the Fire Hawk Emperor?
"Yes. The fact that you can receive my inheritance proves that you are indeed a descendant of the Fire Hawk Clan. When you reach the peak of Demon King, come and find me. I will definitely help you break through to the Emperor Realm.
I hope that you can reach that step within a hundred years, "the Fire Hawk Emperor said.
"Yes, Fire Hawk Emperor. I will not disappoint you!" Yao Yue said confidently.
Becoming an Emperor within a hundred years was an incredible achievement.
On the Demon World Star, there were millions of demonic beasts and humans. Those who could become Kings were all extremely talented, but those who could become Emperors were few and far between. Becoming an Emperor within a hundred years was an incredible feat. He could be considered a relatively young Emperor.
The Fire Hawk Emperor had lived for eight hundred years. When his lifespan was almost exhausted, he had to break into the Inferno Prison to become an Emperor. From this, one could imagine how difficult it was to become an Emperor.
Yao Yue was well aware of this situation. Hearing the Fire Hawk Emperor's expectations for him, his fighting spirit soared. Perhaps he was different from ordinary people and could really take that step.
The Fire Hawk Emperor took out a crudely made bracelet and placed it in front of Yao Yue. "En, here is a spatial chain. Inside it is something that I will give you. It will help you reach the Mid-Grade Demon King realm. Everything else will depend on you. Remember, you must fight steadily and do not rush. Otherwise, as the humans say, your foundation will be unstable and it will be detrimental to your future breakthroughs. So, try not to rely too much on external items to become stronger. Accumulating strength bit by bit is the most reliable method."
The bracelet wasn't beautiful, but it had the function of a spatial ring. It was made from spatial stones and could store anything.
Yao Yue didn't expect the Fire Hawk Emperor to be so generous. He happily accepted the bracelet and thanked him again.
"Alright, don't be so wishy-washy. You grew up in the human race and have feelings for them. However, I hope you understand that you are truly the prince of the Fire Hawk Clan. In the future, remember to protect the members of the Fire Hawk Clan and not be bullied by outsiders."
The Fire Hawk Emperor said. He then continued, "You can go. If you need anything, you can find me in the Fire Maple Forest. That is also the territory of the Fire Hawk Clan."
"I will definitely go to the Fire Maple Forest!" Yao Yue solemnly replied.
The Fire Hawk Emperor nodded and didn't say anything else. His figure flashed and disappeared in front of Yao Yue.
Yao Yue stood there for a while before flying back to where the Emperor and He Wei were.
He saw them sitting cross-legged on the ground, recovering from their injuries.
When they woke up, Yao Yue said, "Let's go.
It's time to leave. "
He could only rely on himself to leave the Jueyao Ridge. He wanted to ask the Fire Hawk Emperor to send him off, but before he could do so, the Fire Hawk Emperor had already left.
However, he felt that with his current status, no Demon King in the Jueyao Ridge would dare to provoke him.
The only exceptions were the Demon Kings of the Devil Bats and Heaven Devouring Rats.
"Little Yue, that … that was a Demon Emperor!" The Emperor looked at Yao Yue in fear.
He Wei also looked at Yao Yue with a serious expression, waiting for his response.
In truth, they already knew the answer. They just wanted to hear it from Yao Yue.
Yao Yue nodded. "Yes, he was the Fire Hawk Emperor."
The Emperor took a deep breath and muttered, "He really was a Demon Emperor. I never thought that I would be able to survive. No one would believe me if I told them."
"Emperor, there are some things that I will explain to you on the way. Let's go now," Yao Yue said.
"Alright, let's go," the Emperor nodded.
However, just as they were about to leave, a loud and clear cry rang out.
Yo!
A Fire Hawk King and a high-tier Great Demon Fire Hawk were rushing towards Yao Yue.
They looked similar to ordinary goshawks, but their bodies were larger when they spread out. Furthermore, their feathers were mainly fiery red, and their crowns were extremely dazzling red!
"Your Highness, please wait for a moment," the Fire Hawk King called out to Yao Yue.
Yao Yue looked at the two Fire Hawk Kings in confusion. He did not understand why they had come.
"This king is called Huo Shang, and this is my son, Huo Ming. We have come under the Fire Hawk Emperor's orders to escort Your Highness out of the Jueyao Ridge," the Fire Hawk King introduced himself.
Yao Yue had been worried about being attacked. With these two Fire Hawks around, it meant that the Fire Hawk Emperor had acknowledged Yao Yue as a prince. The journey would be much safer.
Yao Yue did not hesitate. "Then I'll leave it to you, Fire Hawk King."
Since he was a prince, having a few attendants was not a big deal.
It was a pity that the Fire Hawk Clan had an ordinary bloodline. It was already good enough to have a mid-tier Great Demon King escort him.
However, Yao Yue did not understand why the Fire Hawk King had brought a young Fire Hawk with him.
Actually, the Firehawk King had rushed over to Fox Demon Mountain with the Firehawk Clan's army after he found out about the Falcon Emperor's appearance. He was prepared to welcome the Falcon Emperor back!
However, they had received the news a little late, so they had only arrived a short distance away from Fox Demon Mountain when the Fire Hawk Emperor had discovered them. That was why the Fire Hawk Emperor had sent Huo Shang and Huo Ming to escort Yao Yue out. The rest of the Fire Hawks had already been chased back to the Fire Maple Forest.
Huo Shang lowered his body in front of Yao Yue and gestured for Yao Yue to sit on him.
Huo Ming quickly said, "Father, let me do it."
Huo Ming looked at Yao Yue with hostility, as though he was dissatisfied with the sudden appearance of the prince.
However, he knew that he could not disobey the emperor's orders, so he had no choice but to accompany his father to escort Yao Yue.
"You will have plenty of chances in the future. Let me do it this time," said Huo Shang. Then, he turned to Yao Yue and said, "Come on, Your Highness."
Yao Yue hesitated for a moment before lightly jumping onto Huo Shang's body.
Huo Ming let out an indignant cry at the sky, seemingly dissatisfied that Yao Yue was above his father.
"Your Highness, please don't mind him. Huo Ming is still young," apologized Huo Shang. He flapped his wings and soared into the sky, leaving with Yao Yue.
The old emperor smiled bitterly and thought to himself, I'm just a prisoner here. Little Yue is the real emperor!
He and He Wei quickly followed behind Huo Shang and left Jueyao Ridge together.
