Master of the Demon Emperor

"It's a pity there isn't a big shot from the Demon Clan to back me up," Su Yie regretted, but soon, he chose Li Zuxuan from the Human Clan, the father of the current emperor of Mighty Tang.

He didn't want to choose Old Demon Yang from the Demon Path, since there were already two demon cultivators within Emperor Su's Sect, both not the easiest to deal with, with Demon Lord Qing Yan still verbally attacking the Bailing Demon King, vowing to protect the status of their sect's big shots.

As for Xiang Yu, the most beautiful woman of the Seven Dynasties, sorry, but since she's so far away, what's the point of inviting her just to be a showpiece?

Especially since he also had Nan Xiaopao.

My heart is as steadfast as iron, unbreakable.

Shortly afterwards, within Emperor Su's Sect.

Emperor Su invited Li Zhenxu to join Emperor Su's Sect!

Demon Lord Qing Yan: Eastern Marshlands crawler, bring it on... Huh? Li Zuxuan? The Supreme Emperor of Mighty Tang? He's still alive?

Black Tiger Emperor: The Supreme Emperor of Mighty Tang is here!

Serpent King of the Eastern Marshlands: Who is Li Zuxuan? I've never even heard of him!

Demon Wolf Star: Li Zuxuan really isn't much, hurry up and hand over the resources to join the sect, or I'll have the Sword Saint raid Mighty Tang again!

Li Zuxuan: You...

...

Su Yie couldn't help but feel sympathy for Li Zuxuan, who was suppressed by other members as soon as he joined the sect. He was too lazy to speak up and let the members of Emperor Su's Sect help him demand the resources for joining the sect.

By now, the members of Emperor Su's Sect no longer questioned Emperor Su's strength and began to take pride in their identity as members of Emperor Su's Sect.

Seeing that the sect comprised humans, demons, and demon cultivators, Li Zuxuan realized there was clearly no plot by any single clan. Coupled with Black Tiger Emperor and Demon Wolf Star singing high praises of Emperor Su, he couldn't help but be moved.

In the end, he brought out a third-grade superior magic artifact, the Dragon-Punishing Staff!

The levels of magic artifacts, graded from one to nine, are categorized as lower, middle, and higher within each level.

Su Yie's Zhou Wu Sword is an Immortal Sword, whose level is currently unknown, while the Exquisite Robe gifted by Wux Qingyao is a third-grade lower magic artifact. However, the Luoshui Sect, compared to Mighty Tang, falls far short, so Li Zuxuan's gift of the Dragon-Punishing Staff made the members of Emperor Su's Sect sneer.

The Dragon-Punishing Staff is a well-known magic artifact of Li Zuxuan, but it is not his strongest.

Soon, the Great Dao Communication Device delivered the Dragon-Punishing Staff into Su Yie's hands.

This staff, half a meter long and as thick as a baby's arm, was golden in color and engraved with dragon patterns. It looked quite dazzling, though it was unknown how powerful it was.

The Crimson Flame Lion King, whose gaze was fixed ahead and could not see behind him, was also unaware that Su Yie had acquired a new magic artifact. Even if he knew, he wouldn't recognize that it was the Dragon-Punishing Staff.

In Mighty Tang, the Dragon-Punishing Staff was considered an imperial artifact, capable of disciplining royals and nobles.

Li Zuxuan's arsenal was limited. Those too weak were inappropriate, and those too strong, he was reluctant to part with, so he could only choose the Dragon-Punishing Staff. In his view, a being as powerful as Emperor Su wouldn't descend to the mortal realm.

Immediately, Su Yie tossed the Dragon-Punishing Staff into the Repository of the Dao.

The battle at Xunfeng Mountain also spread among the nearby imps, sweeping through Bailing Territory like a whirlwind.

It stirred up countless monsters.

"Condensed Spirit Demon King was instantly killed?"

"Who dares to oppose the Demon Emperor?"

"Could it be because of the Bailing Demon King's banquet? It seems many Demon Kings are dissatisfied with the Demon Emperor's tyranny."

"Now the Demon Emperor is going to be furious."

"Tsk, really want to know who has such gall."

Soon, various rumors surfaced, with some monsters saying it was the work of the Black Tiger Emperor, as he was spotted near Xunfeng Mountain.

There were also guesses about other Demon Kings, even the Yaojian Mountain Monster Lord.

Luckily, the Black Tiger Emperor was there to take the heat.

Night fell, and both Su Yie and the Crimson Flame Lion King returned to Yaojian Mountain.

"What happened today must not be spoken of, otherwise the Demon Emperor will surely mobilize troops against us," Su Yie warned. He always felt the Crimson Flame Lion King was unreliable.

The Crimson Flame Lion King nodded vehemently. His fear of the Demon Emperor was beyond Su Yie's imagination, so even if Su Yie pressed him, he wouldn't dare speak.

Being killed by Su Yie was only a second of pain.

Falling into the hands of the Demon Emperor was worse than death!

Although the monsters of Yaojian Mountain were puzzled about the Demon Lord's daytime activities, no monster dared to ask.

The next day, the monsters who went out came back and brought news of the battle at Xunfeng Mountain, causing a flurry of discussion among the monsters of Yaojian Mountain.

None of them guessed it was Su Yie, as some monsters had seen that it was a group of mysterious shadows who had acted.

Nan Xiaopao, initially in Xiwan City, had closed her eyes and hadn't seen Su Yie release the Divine Shadow Legion, so the truth was not discovered.

Su Yie began to cultivate diligently, receiving Demon Cores from his subordinates daily, he was absolutely delighted.

Five days later.

The Demon Emperor issued a bounty in the entire Bailing Territory, stating that anyone who could identify the murderer of Xunfeng Mountain could ask him for any favor.

As soon as the news was released, it caused a massive tremor.

The Demon Emperor was the most powerful being in the Bailing Territory, feared even by the Seven Dynasties, and getting his help could mean soaring to the heavens!

At the same time, Su Yie's Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword finally achieved great success!

Having mastered the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword in two months, Su Yie felt that he could vie for the title of the world's number one swordsman in the future.

At the summit of the main peak.

Su Yie held the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword, watching a bird flying below the clouds. His gaze hardened, and he threw the Zhou Wu Sword with his right hand. His eyes widened as the Zhou Wu Sword suddenly turned into a rainbow light and struck.

Five hundred meters away, with a plop, feathers flew in disarray.

The bird was killed!

This speed was simply undefendable!

A smile curved the corner of Su Yie's mouth, his spirits high.

With the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword at great achievement, his combat prowess would leap immensely!

The greatly achieved Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword could imbue weapons with demonic power and control them with the mind, possessing the subtlety of divine thought.

"I truly am a genius!"

Su Yie thought delightedly, filled with the grand sentiment of roaming the vast world unfettered.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

With a swoosh!

The Zhou Wu Sword returned to his hand, as if a blade returning to its sheath.

Just then, the page for inviting someone appeared in Su Yie's mind again.

Please invite any of the following beings to join Emperor Su's Sect.

Yang Chongtian!

Tang Qingtian!

Gunmaster Wulang!

Ji Chongxuan!

...

Seeing the twenty-eight names surprised him; could mastering swordsmanship also grant an opportunity to invite someone?

It must be because the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword is not of low level; otherwise, Su Yie could find some minor spells to accumulate invitation opportunities.

He fell into a dilemma again, whom to choose?

Tang Qingtian had appeared multiple times already, but he dared not rashly ask the members of Emperor Su's Sect about someone's identity because that would be embarrassing—he claimed to be omnipotent, yet he didn't know someone's strength?

Last time he caused doubt among the members of Emperor Su's Sect, but fortunately, he later impressed them with the power of the Great Dao communication device.

This time, he had heard of several names on the list as well.

For example, Elder Lord Qi Yang had once mentioned the genius Purple Lord Fox, who, however, had left the Land of Qiling a hundred years ago and probably wasn't very strong.

There was also Feng Lie, a hero of the Human Clan, who had held off a vast Demon Clan army by himself on the Border of the Seven Dynasties, revered as a great hero by the Seven Dynasties. He disappeared fifty years ago; it was said he had the power to battle the Demon Emperor.

Shangguan Wuji, a great power of the Demon Path, even Demon Lord Qing Yan considered him taboo. Demon Wolf Star had mentioned him once but didn't say much before being scolded, frightening Demon Wolf Star into silence.
