Chapter 440: Chapter 439: The Next Hall Master

After leaving the Xiao Family.

Xiao Yi changed his clothes, put on the Ghost Mask, and summoned the Purple Flame Fire Wings to fly back to the Royal Capital.

In terms of speed, the Purple Flame Fire Wings were always faster.

Based on the Purple Flame, the surging Primordial Power inside his body powered the wings.

Naturally, it was much faster than ordinary Sky-controlling Flight.

In less than five days, Xiao Yi had returned to the Royal Capital.

He planned to go to the Demon Hunting Hall Main Hall first.

Considering the time, the Hall Master should have been out of seclusion for quite a while, and he was unsure what matter he needed to address.

Racing along the way, Xiao Yi arrived at the Demon Hunting Hall.

As he just got there, the same Branch Hall Master from last time quickly walked over.

”Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master, you finally came back,” the Branch Hall Master said with a wry smile.

”What’s wrong, is the Hall Master urgently looking for me again?” Xiao Yi asked in confusion.

”Not this time,” the Branch Hall Master shook his head and said, ”The Hall Master came out of seclusion a month ago.”

”I reported that you had come back and then left.”

”The Hall Master did not hold it against you.”

”He just instructed me to have you come over once you returned.”

Xiao Yi frowned slightly, then nodded his head.

Led by the Branch Hall Master, they went to the back hall.

The Demon Hunting Hall Main Hall was actually very large.

The back hall was also exceptionally huge.

Different administrative spots were orderly distributed therein.

And the Hall Master’s office and resting places were even deeper inside.

Knock, knock.

After knocking, the Branch Hall Master opened the door and entered, with Xiao Yi following.

Xiao Yi was not here for the first time.

But last time, it was the Hall Master who had brought him here.

This time, it was one of the Branch Hall Masters in the hall who had brought him.

This Branch Hall Master led Xiao Yi inside, bowed to the Hall Master, and then slowly left.

In the vast room, only Xiao Yi and the Hall Master in front of a desk were left.

At this moment, the Hall Master was looking down at a certain document.

Xiao Yi did not disturb him and waited on his own.

After a while, the Hall Master put down the document he was holding, slowly looked towards Xiao Yi, and said softly, ”You’re here.”

”Greetings, Hall Master.” Xiao Yi bowed.

”Hmm,” the Hall Master nodded slightly and said quietly, ”Do you know why I summoned you?”

The Hall Master’s voice was somewhat low.

Xiao Yi frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, ”If I’m not mistaken.”

”It’s about those three assessments.”

”Smart,” the Hall Master said with slight praise, and then fell silent.

Just staring intently at Xiao Yi.

Those old yet profound eyes that seemed inscrutable held a different meaning.

Xiao Yi felt uneasy all over and only managed to bow his hands and said, ”The three assessments entrusted to me by the Hall Master.”

”I haven’t completed the second assessment, so I never sought the Hall Master.”

Last time, the Hall Master had speculated and determined that Xiao Yi’s actual Cultivation had not reached the Heavenly Origin Realm.

Therefore, the second assessment given to Xiao Yi was to reach the Heavenly Origin Realm.

As for the third assessment, the Hall Master did not provide it.

Instead, he asked Xiao Yi to come back to him after he truly advanced to the Heavenly Origin Realm.

At this moment, the Hall Master smiled slightly and said, ”I know, so I went to find you actively.”

Xiao Yi was somewhat surprised and asked hesitantly, ”What do you mean, Hall Master?”

”I want to advance the assessments,” the Hall Master suddenly emphasized.

”And I won’t hide it from you; I plan to make you my successor.”

”What?” Xiao Yi was immediately startled.

The next second, Xiao Yi quickly bowed and said, ”Hall Master must be joking; there are countless people more formidable than me within the Main Hall.”

”I certainly don’t have the capability.”

”Do I look like I’m joking?” the Hall Master frowned.

”This...” Xiao Yi was struck with even greater astonishment.

Naturally, he was surprised.

After all, he had genuinely come into contact with the Hall Master only twice.

He did not believe that after merely these two encounters, the Hall Master would choose him as a successor.

Moreover, the Demon Hunting Hall, such a colossal entity.

The Hall Master, holding the highest position.

How could it be so easy, even haphazard, to decide on a successor?

And yet, here he was, a mere fledgling.

”Heh.” For some reason, the Hall Master suddenly revealed a smile.

The previous somber and heavy tone instantly vanished without a trace.

That expression seemed like he was looking at a young man he greatly valued and approved of.

”Boy, let me ask you a question first,” the Hall Master’s smile on his face suddenly faded away.

Replaced by a more neutral expression.

”Do you know how many years the Demon Hunting Hall has been inherited?” the Hall Master asked indifferently.

”Countless years.” Xiao Yi pondered for a moment before responding.

In fact, Xiao Yi didn’t really know.

The Demon Hunting Hall, an institution that existed since the demon beasts rampaged across the Ancient Times and has been inherited to this day, is one of the oldest forces.

The years of its inheritance are not even clearly recorded in the annals.

It seemed like a time that could not be traced back.

Hearing his answer, the Hall Master nodded, then continued to inquire.

”Then do you know, why over countless years, through all the changes and the turning wheels of time, this world is constantly changing,”

”Yet the Demon Hunting Hall remains constant,”

”Even as dynasties change and lands switch rulers, the Demon Hunting Hall is still the Demon Hunting Hall.”

Xiao Yi straightforwardly said, ”It is naturally because the Demon Hunting Hall is strong enough.”

”In the Flame Dragon Continent, strength is revered.”

”Branches of the Demon Hunting Hall, and Demon Hunters, are scattered all over the world.”

”As formidable as this, naturally no one can shake it.”

”No, you’re mistaken,” the Hall Master shook his head.

”Mistaken?” Xiao Yi furrowed his brows in confusion.

”The reason is only one,” the Hall Master said gravely.

”The Demon Hunting Hall never involves itself in disputes between any powers.”

”The sole duty of the Demon Hunting Hall is hunting demon beasts.”

Xiao Yi’s brows suddenly furrowed tightly.

Intuition told him that the Hall Master’s words today had a deeper meaning.

The Hall Master, looking at Xiao Yi’s tightly furrowed brows showing through the Ghost Mask, suddenly smiled.

”Of course, it cannot be denied that the power of the Demon Hunting Hall is indeed very strong,” the Hall Master said with a faint smile.

”But, no matter how strong the force, it always needs fresh blood.”

”There will always be one guardian after another who is strong enough.”

”So the Hall Master chose me?” Xiao Yi said gravely.

”Indeed,” the Hall Master nodded, ”those three assessments, if you can pass them.”

”Then you will be the next Hall Master.”

”As for what you just mentioned about not having the capability,”

The Hall Master suddenly revealed a satisfied smile.

”Do you know how astonishing the achievements you have completed at your age are?”

”Martial Arts Talent, qualifications, temperament, all are top-notch.”

”If you don’t have the capability, then who does?”

”However, it’s unfortunate.” The Hall Master suddenly subdued his smile.

”Originally, I wanted you to go ahead and complete the third assessment.”

”Now, this assessment must be postponed.”

”Why?” Xiao Yi asked, puzzled.

The Hall Master looked directly at Xiao Yi again and said gravely, ”Have you sorted out your family’s affairs?”

”What?” Xiao Yi’s expression changed drastically in an instant.
