Master of the Demon Emperor

Confronted by the formidable Blue Monkey Demon Envoy, the Demon Emperor remained silent, his eyes filled with unwillingness.

Gravely wounded, he had almost succeeded in slaying his enemy when unexpectedly, the Blue Monkey Demon Envoy appeared.

He even suspected that the Blue Monkey Demon Envoy had been covertly watching for a long time, intentionally waiting for him to be gravely injured before making a move, a truly condemnable scheme!

However much he resented this, he could only endure in silence.

In the end, he could only take a deep breath, sit down cross-legged right there, and begin to heal.

The Blue Monkey Demon Envoy glanced at Ye Zhonggang and Lu Yao and said, "Scram when you have the strength!"

Scram?

Lu Yao and Ye Zhonggang were furious, but they refrained from erupting in anger. Being alive was already a fortune; they were not fools.

Moreover, they could see that the Blue Monkey Demon Envoy was stronger than the Demon Emperor; otherwise why would the Demon Emperor show such a lack of dignity before him?

With a flick of his hand, the Blue Monkey Demon Envoy unleashed a demon wind that swept the Demon Emperor away.

In the desolate Demon City, only Lu Yao and Ye Zhonggang lay amidst the ruins.

Their eyes met, both revealing wry smiles.

Lu Yao sighed and said, "Another mysterious Great Demon has appeared. It seems like there are hidden forces pushing for war behind the Demon Emperor's intent."

Just the Demon Emperor alone was nothing for their Demon Sect to fear.

Within the upper echelons of the Demon Sect, it was speculated that there must be a stronger existence behind the Demon Emperor, which is why only a protector was sent.

So, in truth, Lu Yao wasn't acting impulsively but was deliberately courting death, using the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner to force out the forces behind the Demon Emperor.

Ye Zhonggang didn't say much, just struggled to sit up and begin meditation, then took out a bottle of pills and started consuming them.

Another day passed, and Su Yie and Wu Qingyao were riding the Crimson Flame Lion getting closer to Yaojian Mountain.

Both were listening in on the conversations of Emperor Su's Sect with their eyes closed; Wu Qingyao thought Su Yie was resting, so she also pretended to be cultivating.

The news of the battle at Sunset Ravine had already spread far and wide, even faster than their journey back.

The battle had further strained the relations between the Human and Demon Clans.

The coming storm made the people of the Seven Dynasties anxious.

The Bailing Territory, however, was very calm. It was surrounded by barren mountains and wilderness, territories belonging to the Demon Clan, which meant that the Seven Dynasties were actually encircled by the Demon Clan. Even if the Bailing Territory was lost, the monsters there could move to other places, but the people of the Seven Dynasties could not; they had no escape.

That day, Li Huahun who had remained silent all this time suddenly spoke out.

Li Huahun: Shangguan old fool, I'm in Abyssal Valley. Come out and face your death!

Demon Lord Qing Yan: As expected...

Black Tiger Emperor: ...

Demon Wolf Star: ...

Elder Lord Qi Yang: Damn, what a badass! This kid is tough!

Serpent King of the Eastern Marshlands: Tsk tsk, legends of the Demon Path can't show weakness in battle.

Li Huahun: What's wrong? Old man, are you scared? Beg for mercy three times and call me grandpa, and I'll let you go!

...

In the face of Li Huahun's taunts, Shangguan Wuji did not appear, as if he were truly afraid.

Wu Qingyao couldn't help but let out a laugh.

Trying to suppress his own amusement, Su Yie feigned confusion and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Wu Qingyao quickly restrained herself, calmly saying, "Laughing? No, I was just lowering my head."

That excuse...

Could it be any more far-fetched?

Su Yie felt an imaginary black line on his forehead. If it was not because I am Emperor Su, I really would have believed your nonsense.

Inside Emperor Su's Sect, it was lively. The once dominant Shangguan Wuji did not dare to show his face, causing the members of Su Imperial Clan, Wu Qingyao included, to start kicking him while he was down, fanning the flames.

Soon, the Crimson Flame Lion King brought Su Yie and his companion back to Yaojian Mountain.

Upon Su Yie's return, cheers erupted from the three mountain peaks, resounding through the heavens.

"The Demon Lord is back!"

"Hahaha! As expected of the Demon Lord, he even brought back a beauty!"

"Shush! Don't let the Demon Empress find out!"

"The Demon Empress is in secluded cultivation! Don't be scared!"

"Let's go! Hurry down to welcome the Demon Lord."

Monsters leaped down one after another, like rain pouring from the sky, creating a spectacular scene.

Su Yi dismounted and Wux Qingyao did the same, looking at so many demons, she was shocked, not expecting that in such a short time, Su Yi had already gathered such a force.

Shape-Shifting Great Demons crowded around, bombarding with questions from all sides.

The news of Su Yi crushing the top talent of the Demon Sect had reached Yaojian Mountain yesterday, electrifying the entire mountain.

This was a feat that would make a name for him among both Human and Demon Clans!

Su Yi waved his hand and smiled, "Everyone go prepare, we celebrate tonight, and every demon will be rewarded!"

The monsters became even more excited.

Afterward, Su Yi had the Crimson Flame Lion King arrange accommodation for Wux Qingyao while he went to find Nan Xiaopao.

On his way up the mountain, he arrived at the Spiritual Spring, where birds chirped and fragrant flowers bloomed, creating a secluded path deep within the woods.

Nan Xiaopao was meditating by the spring, her cultivation having made significant progress since a few days ago.

"I'm back."

Su Yi sat down beside her and said softly.

Nan Xiaopao pretended not to hear, continuing to meditate with her eyes closed.

Seeing this, Su Yi had no choice but to sit down and cultivate as well.

After a while,

Nan Xiaopao pinched his waist without saying a word.

Seeing this, Su Yi couldn't help but laugh, gently teasing her nose, and asked, "What's the matter? Jealous?"

At those words, Nan Xiaopao opened her eyes, crossed her arms in front of her chest, tilted her face away, and her hair brushed against Su Yi's face.

"Jealous? Why would I be jealous?"

Su Yi laughed, explaining honestly, "That woman is from the Luoshui Sect. When I was in Xiwan City, waiting for you to awaken, I fought the Great Buddha of the Western Buddha Dynasty, and my body was full of broken bones. I owe her for the Bone Healing Pill. In the recent battle at Sunset Ravine, she was sure to die as her cultivation was left behind. I had to save her."

Hearing this, Nan Xiaopao's pouting lips involuntarily relaxed, and she softly snorted, "I wasn't blaming you."

Having spent several months on Yaojian Mountain, she often heard demons talking about the Ancient Wilderness and knew that powerful men here usually had multiple wives and concubines, and many were even politically married for advantage. Therefore, she was constantly trying to convince herself.

"Once I deal with the Demon Emperor, I'll send her back to the territory of the Human Clan. With humans and demons separated, I suppose I won't have any more interaction with her."

Su Yi said with a smile. Although he had been distracted on his way back, he never truly wavered.

Now, he didn't want to waste time on love affairs.

He had to grow stronger to protect both himself and Nan Xiaopao.

Nan Xiaopao reached out with both hands, vigorously rubbing his face, feigning a menacing look, and hummed, "Stop pretending! It's all your fault! Why do you have to be so impressive!"

Su Yi was caught between laughter and helplessness, letting her rough him up.

After chatting for a while, Nan Xiaopao stood up, saying she was going to thank Wux Qingyao.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Su Yi didn't think much of it; Nan Xiaopao was quite kind to others, just a bit coquettish with him in private.

He continued his cultivation.

Aiming to break through to the Mystic Demon King Realm as soon as possible!

To break through this realm, one had to develop their own Divine Skills.

Time flew, and five days passed in a flash.

Nan Xiaopao and Wux Qingyao miraculously became good friends. Although Nan Xiaopao was stronger, Wux Qingyao understood many Immortal Techniques and quickly became close after teaching them to Nan Xiaopao.

The most important reason was that Wux Qingyao was so indifferent, leading Nan Xiaopao to feel the woman was almost unfeeling and probably didn't understand love.

One day, the Demon Birds Su Yi had sent out came back with news.

"Demon City is destroyed, the Demon Emperor is missing!"
