A moment later, Lei Xing led everyone to the outside of the Prisoner of War Camp located deep within the Dragon Guard Office.
"Lord Lei Xing, you have arrived."
The two guards outside the Prisoner of War Camp respectfully saluted Lei Xing.
"Hiss..."
Upon seeing the Three Dragon Battle Armor worn by these two, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
They never expected that the guards merely at the entrance of the Prisoner of War Camp would be Chiliarchs of the Black Dragon Guard.
It's important to note that these two Chiliarchs in front of them were not comparable to those who had just joined the Black Dragon Guard as Chiliarchs.
In the Dragon Guard Office, each Chiliarch, whether in terms of cultivation or true power, surpassed them significantly. Although they hadn't broken through to the Purple Mansion Realm, they were almost invincible at the Acupoint Condensation Realm.
If they weren't at the Outer Battlefield, they could easily be promoted to Deputy Commander or even Commander.
Many couldn't help but appear solemn, as they realized that the demons inside the Prisoner of War Camp must be incredibly formidable, forcing the Dragon Guard Office to take such precautions.
Led by Lei Xing, everyone entered the Prisoner of War Camp.
The security inside was even more formidable, with numerous guards, and the lowest rank being Deputy Commanders in Four Dragon Battle Armor. They even saw several Commanders in Five Dragon Battle Armor and a few Vice Marshals in Six Dragon Battle Armor.
What shocked them the most was that even Commanders in Five Dragon Battle Armor had Purple Mansion Realm cultivation, and the Vice Marshals in Six Dragon Battle Armor had reached the middle to late stages of the Purple Mansion Realm.
This affirmed their suspicions that the captured demons in the camp must possess terrifying strength.
"Lord Qing He."
At this moment, Lei Xing approached a Commander in Five Dragon Battle Armor and greeted respectfully.
"Lei Xing, you've finally come around. I thought you'd stay lost in revelry in the Imperial Capital and wouldn't dare come here."
Qing He, with a smile, said to Lei Xing.
"Lord Qing He, you jest. I, Lei Xing, am not someone who fears death."
Lei Xing smiled in response.
"Are these the newcomers you brought this time?"
Qing He shifted his gaze to the thousands behind Lei Xing and asked again.
"Yes."
Lei Xing nodded in affirmation.
He then turned to the group and said, "Hurry and pay respects to Lord Qing He."
"Greetings, Lord Qing He."
The group promptly responded without hesitation, shouting in unison to greet Qing He.
In the Black Dragon Guard, orders were as unyielding as mountains, and the hierarchy was strict. Superiors had absolute control over subordinates; any defiance could result in expulsion, revocation of cultivation, or even execution.
Thus, be it Deputy Commander Lei Xing or Commander Qing He, none dared to show even a hint of defiance.
"Yes, you all seem quite good. Regardless of your cultivation power, just daring to join the Black Dragon Guard and come to the Outer Battlefield proves you're stronger than many."
Qing He nodded slightly, smiling as he spoke.
However, when his gaze fell upon Wang Ruoxie, his smile froze, for Wang Ruoxie's cultivation was only at the Essence Pill Realm.
What was even more unbelievable was that Wang Ruoxie was wearing Three Dragon Battle Armor, implying he was a Chiliarch of the Black Dragon Guard.
In the Outer Battlefield, an Essence Pill Realm cultivator didn't even qualify as cannon fodder; even the weakest demon could effortlessly destroy such a person.
"Lei Xing, what's the matter with this person?"
Qing He frowned and questioned Lei Xing.
To him, sending someone at the Essence Pill Realm to the Outer Battlefield and granting them a Chiliarch position seemed utterly ridiculous.
"Lord Qing He, I don't know much about this person. I only know he was the first in the Eastern Domain's trial tournament."
Lei Xing glanced at Wang Ruoxie and then told Qing He, "As for his Chiliarch position, it seems to have been awarded personally by the Lord Commander."
"I see."
Upon hearing Lei Xing's explanation, Qing He's brows relaxed. Though he didn't understand why the Lord Commander made such a decision, he believed there must be special reasons behind it.
He cast another look at Wang Ruoxie, showing some curiosity.
He was eager to understand what was extraordinary about Wang Ruoxie, who, with a Ninth Layer of Essence Pill Realm cultivation, had won the trial tournament and caught the attention of the Lord Commander.
"Lord Qing He, I'd like to show them the true appearances of the demons and familiarize them with demon tactics to prevent any unforeseen troubles during their first demon hunt."
At this moment, Lei Xing spoke to Qing He.
"Alright, follow me."
Qing He nodded slightly and turned towards the interior of the Prisoner of War Camp.
Lei Xing and the others followed closely behind.
Soon, the group arrived in a rather spacious hall.
In the center of the hall stood a grand platform with a cage atop it.
All eyes turned to the cage and were stunned to find a stunningly beautiful young woman inside.
"Why is this woman imprisoned here?"
they silently wondered.
"You're all probably wondering why this woman is imprisoned here, right?"
Noticing their confusion, Qing He smiled and said.
Everyone nodded; it was indeed puzzling why such a beautiful woman would be confined here.
"What if I told you she's a demon?"
Qing He said with a smile.
"What... this beautiful woman is a demon?"
"How is that possible? Aren't demons supposed to resemble demon beasts?"
"I've heard demons have wings, scales all over, and are hideous. How could such a beautiful woman be a demon?"
"This woman is clearly human, just like us. How could she be a demon?"
"It's unbelievable, a demon being human?"
...
As Qing He finished speaking, the crowd erupted in disbelief, with visible shock on their faces.
Wang Ruoxie, however, appeared relieved. Although he had never encountered a real demon before, he believed the woman before him was indeed the demon spoken of.
He could sense a distinct aura from this beautiful woman, unlike that of humans, which stirred an unprecedented reaction in the vortex formed by the Blood God Essence Blood within him.
