Master of the Demon Emperor

"Alright, looking forward to you defeating her."

Su Yie smiled gently, as he too was looking forward to the day Nan Xiaopao would surpass the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili.

After all, she was his woman; she couldn't be weak!

"Next, you come with me back to Xiwan City, and bring your master and the others. In Xiwan City, I can better protect you and the Bailing Territory."

Su Yie added, now that he had regained his demonic power, naturally, he couldn't delay.

Although Tang Qingtian and Han Yuandao were strong, they couldn't hold off the numerous competitors indefinitely. How long could they defend Xiwan City?

Nan Xiaopao nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation.

A short while later, Ling Sang took out a jade dish and flew with everyone towards Xiwan City.

Su Yie called out to Wu Qingyao in his mind to ask her whereabouts.

It wasn't that he was in a hurry, but that Nan Xiaopao kept asking about her.

The two had become good friends, so she too couldn't bear the thought of Wu Qingyao coming to any harm.

Inside Emperor Su's Sect.

Wu Qingyao: There are quite a few from the Luoshui Sect. I can't leave on my own, nor do I want to trouble you. Let fate decide my life and death.

Su Yie: I don't mind the trouble.

Wu Qingyao: Think more for yourself. Not all the Exotic People are loyal to you, not to mention my fellow disciples from the Luoshui Sect.

Ren Wolang: Fired up? Don't worry, Brother Su, I'm on my way to help you. Xiwan City, right? I'll be there soon.

Feng Lie: I won't go to Xiwan City. I want to help the Seven Dynasties.

Wuu You: I'm on my way as well.

Demon Wolf Star: Damn! So many from our sect are already headed there. When the time comes, you all should collectively reveal the name of Emperor Su's Sect, make a grand entrance!

Tang Qingtian: Hahaha, I've already reported myself. It feels great to kill!

...

Wu Qingyao's refusal didn't embarrass Su Yie; instead, a warm current flowed in his heart.

If Su Yie were to save Exotic People again, he would indeed become inseparable from the Exotic People, and he would be the first to face all sorts of conflicts. Wu Qingyao had a far-reaching perspective.

Su Yie lapsed into silence.

"Forget it! Once I return to Xiwan City and attract most of the competitors, and after I have slain more than half of them, I will go to the Luoshui Sect."

Su Yie thought so. There weren't many Exotic People in the Luoshui Sect, and given the Luoshui Sect's nature, they were likely to turn over those Exotic People, which meant a low possibility of conflict arising.

Wu Qingyao wasn't an ordinary person; she was meticulous and capable of protecting herself.

With that in mind, he continued to consume pills to strengthen himself.

Seeing Su Yie swallow another pill, the nuns twitched at the corners of their mouths, knowing the heaven-defying nature of the Great Cang Invincible Body. But still...

How wealthy was this guy?

For him to consume pills without any hesitation!

Luckily, they were cultivators of Buddhism and had tranquil hearts, quickly regaining their composure.

About seventy li into their journey, they encountered a group of cultivators numbering fifty-seven.

As those cultivators brushed past Su Yie and his group, as if coming to a realization, they hastily stopped and one of them shouted, "Stop! Who are you?"

Without turning his head, Su Yie replied, "Su Yie."

Su Yie?

The cultivators were taken aback, and then their faces turned to terror as they immediately turned and fled, not daring to linger.

The Bailing Demon Lord!

Though they had come to kill the Bailing Demon Lord, they were too few in number; they were no match for Su Yie and knew they couldn't confront him head-on.

"The name of the Bailing Demon Lord has risen to the point where it strikes terror into the hearts of others."

One of the nuns remarked. She remembered the time Su Yie had brought Nan Xiaopao to Jiaye Temple. Back then, Su Yie was not strong, at least not nearly as much as now. He was hardly worth mentioning.

Su Yie snorted, "Let's not kill them now. Wait until they get to Xiwan City, and kill them all together!"

He said this because he wanted to earn the invitation opportunity or new functions of the Great Dao Communication Device.

Just killing these people wouldn't be enough to achieve recognition from the Great Dao Communication Device.

Sovereign of the Nether Sky was on the move; he had to give it his all!

And so, the group flew unobstructed towards Xiwan City.

The competitors passed messages to each other, constantly reporting Su Yie's whereabouts.

Facing the Bailing Demon Lord, they had to unite.

For a time, the Bailing Territory was permeated with an aura of slaughter.

Participants from the Seven Dynasties began to move towards Xiwan City.

The Qingyi Sect had already released the Exotic People, leaving their survival entirely in their own hands.

There was little to distinguish between the Exotic People and the Ancient Wilderness People, and it was difficult to identify them when they were scattered in a crowd.

Only the powerful or those skilled in the art of divination could tell them apart.

Compared with the Ancient Wilderness People, the fates of all the Exotic People were murky and indecipherable.

By releasing the Exotic People, Qingyi Sect did not anger the participants; on the contrary, it pleased them.

If all the Exotic People were gathered together, many participants would surely keep watch over them, and the ensuing carnage would be even more brutal. Now that the Exotic People were dispersed, the pressure on the participants diminished.

The Three Dynasties' Saint Competition would last a whole month!

Night fell.

The nights in the Bailing Territory became even more terrifying due to the Three Dynasties' Saint Competition, with the mournful howls of monsters heard everywhere.

Demons ate humans, but humans also ate demons.

In the eyes of the cultivators, the bodies of monsters were treasures, and could even be roasted for meat.

The next morning, Su Yie and the others could already see the outline of Xiwan City.

At that moment, Ren Wolang and Tang Qingtian were sparring outside the city, with Tang Qingtian crying out in defeat.

"Grandpa Wandering is formidable!"

"Grandpa Wandering, slow down!"

"Grandpa Wandering... I was wrong..."

Ren Wolang struck Tang Qingtian with the back of his knife, causing Tang Qingtian pain all over, feeling as if his bones would fall apart.

He was the one who suggested they spar, only to end up being thrashed.

"Ren Wolang..."

Standing on the city wall, Han Yuandao twitched at the corner of his mouth.

He couldn't help but think of Ren Wokuang, Li Huahun, and that mysterious Silver-faced Man.

Such a perverse family.

"The Demon Lord is back!"

The Crimson Flame Lion King suddenly roared with immense excitement.

It had been a long time since Emperor Su had ridden him, and he missed it keenly.

Hearing this, Ren Wolang stopped his assault and turned to look at Su Yie and the others.

Tang Qingtian, with a bruised face, collapsed into a large crater, gasping for breath and wearing an awkward but polite smile.

He was genuinely frightened, filled with regret.

He resolved never to be so reckless again.

Soon, bearing Su Yie and the others, the Jade Dishware flew onto the city wall, with Ren Wolang and Tang Qingtian following.

"I am Ren Wolang from Emperor Su's Sect, and I've come to visit Brother Su!"

With a huge blade slung over his shoulder, Ren Wolang chuckled, winking at Su Yie as he spoke.

Having arrived in the Bailing Territory just a day ago, he had already heard many legends about Su Yie.

Had it not been for Li Huahun's warning, he would have challenged Su Yie without hesitation.

"Emperor Su's Sect?"

Nan Xiaopao blinked, having a special fondness for the character "Su."

Su Yie nodded and said with a smile, "There are four of us here from Emperor Su's Sect."

"Oh?"

Ren Wolang paused briefly, his gaze subconsciously sweeping the surroundings.

Apart from him, Tang Qingtian, and Su Yie, who else was there?

Just then, Ling Sang stepped forward and said, "I am Ling Sang."

Her aged face blushed slightly; she truly had no face to say the three words "Emperor Su's Sect." She was no longer young, no longer impassioned.

At her words, Nan Xiaopao widened her eyes in disbelief, and so did the other nuns.

How had their abbess become a member of another sect?

Under their puzzled gazes, Ling Sang calmly said, "I cannot explain this to you now, rest assured, I have not betrayed Jiaye Temple."
