Chapter 239 The Strength of the Demon Emperor
After Han Hai left, other famed and powerful individuals appeared, unwilling to give up on an Earth Rank Treasure of Fate that had emerged with such difficulty.
Even if it had been claimed by someone else, they were intent on robbing it!
And so, more and more kings pursued the traces of the Zhu Rong Bracelet's fiery aura.
Unaware of this, Su Yie and his four companions flew at full speed, using their Divine Sense to scan the environment they passed, in hopes of finding a powerful Treasure of Fate.
Soon, the news of Su Yie's Daoist Fruit also spread within Emperor Su's Sect, relayed by Lyu Wutian.
Su Yie didn't mind. As a man of the world, he should stand upright and proud, why hide his sharpness?
Within Emperor Su's Sect.
Yue Qinglong: "Celestial Authority Demon Star Dao Fruit... That's remarkable. I didn't expect such an exceptional talent to emerge from the humble Eastern Lands."
Venerable Xuanyuan: "It seems I must reassess Su Yie, no, the Demon Emperor."
Demon Wolf Star: "What do you think our sect master sees in him?"
Elder Lord Qi Yang: "When I first met the Demon Emperor, his demonic power was scarce. In just over a year, he has reached such a towering height, unmatched in history. Prepare to grovel before him."
Empress of the Great Zhou: "Not only that, but Su Yie also frequently contributes resources, knowing what to grasp and what to relinquish. With such a temperament, he is bound to command awe far and wide in the future."
Corpse Ghost King XueLi: "I once had dealings with the Demon Emperor and even scared him. It's something I can brag about for a lifetime."
...
For a time, Emperor Su's Sect was swept by a tide of praise for Su Yie and Emperor Su.
The speed of Su Yie's growth was just too rapid, not letting down the high regard Emperor Su had placed on him.
They didn't feel that Emperor Su was favoring Su Yie unduly, seeing that Su Yie was always contributing significantly with resources.
Of course, they were unaware of the truth.
Meanwhile, the news of a new Star of Taoist Fruition swept across the Eastern Lands, stirring countless ripples.
The next day, news exploded within Heavenly Machine Tower.
The Ten Thousand Demons Court Demon Emperor broke through to the Demon Body Dao Fruit Realm and seized an Earth Rank Treasure of Fate!
The timing of Su Yie's acquisition of the Daoist Fruit and the emergence of the new Daoist Fruit star was so close that it inevitably led many beings to make connections between the two.
"Heavenly Machine Tower has released information, the new Daoist Fruit is named Celestial Authority Demon Star, and it's likely to be a presence that surpasses a First Grade Dao Fruit!"
"Beyond First Grade, what level is that?"
"Could it be the Ten Thousand Demons Court Demon Emperor? The timing is too coincidental!"
"Impossible! Who would have such exceptional talent in both physical form and magical aptitude, without fearing the envy of the heavens?"
"Right, if it were the Ten Thousand Demons Court Demon Emperor, he wouldn't even be able to survive the Heavenly Tribulation."
Before long, the name of the Ten Thousand Demons Court Demon Emperor and the Celestial Authority Demon Star Dao Fruit were on everyone's lips throughout the Eastern Lands.
Many beings were exclaiming in amazement, as the Demon Emperor of the Myriad Demon Court was quickly becoming a figure who could stir the winds and clouds across the land, and it wouldn't be long before he could enter the Worldly Renowned Register.
The Human Clan could not remain calm; if the Celestial Authority Demon Star Dao Fruit truly belonged to Su Yie, then he would become a bane upon the Human Clan.
In the time that followed, various powers dispatched their powerful members to the Heavenly Machine Tower, preparing to encircle Su Yie.
Su Yie, however, could get advance notice of the situation.
Because he had Emperor Su's Sect.
Regarding this, Su Yie was unconcerned.
With Sect Teleportation, he was not anxious.
If necessary, he could seek help for a price.
Four days had passed since Su Yie's breakthrough, and on this day, they arrived at a vast lake.
Mist hovered over the lake's surface, visibility was extremely low, sparse clumps of grass were near the shore, and many footprints dotted the nearby mud, giving a chilling sense of alarm.
"There's a strong presence of Spiritual Energy in the lake, probably not low in rank. Who's going down first?" Gui Chouxie stood by the lake and asked the four behind him, uninterested in a Water Attribute Treasure of Fate.
For he was not a Water Ghost.
Su Yie, born of the Golden Crow, to enter the water?
Ha.
Xiang Shun, though he lived by the river, only coveted the Divine Vein Cauldron.
In the end, Lyu Wutian and Murong Wudi both dove into the water, jointly searching for that Treasure of Fate.
After they submerged, before long, an overwhelmingly powerful momentum arrived, startling the very winds and clouds.
Su Yie, Gui Chouxie, and Xiang Shun turned their heads, ready to fight.@@novelbin@@
The one approaching was none other than Han Hai!
Clutching his Silver Spear, he laughed loudly, "The Demon Emperor of the Myriad Demon Court? The Overlord of Western Chu from Emperor Su's Sect? The rogue ghost Gui Chouxie?"
"Very well! Fight me! If you lose, hand over the Zhu Rong Bracelet!"
"Treasures belong to the strongest!"
Han Hai laughed wildly, exuding an air of invincibility.
Before his voice had fully faded, he charged with his spear enveloped in a murderous aura, like a black dragon coiling around him.
Facing the daunting assault of Han Hai, Xiang Shun drew out the Overlord Spear and the Great Halberd to strike.
The two renowned weapons of war collided, whipping up fierce winds, and even the vast lake stirred with waves.
Clang! Clang! Clang...
Han Hai and Xiang Shun landed, launching into a ferocious attack without using spells, fighting entirely with physical strength that shook the ground.
The Overlord of Western Chu was not managing to gain the upper hand in terms of strength.
Su Yie's eyebrows slightly raised, surprised at Han Hai's prowess, realizing he might have missed out on a good prospect.
Han Hai's speed kept increasing, while Xiang Shun began to get overwhelmed.
"This guy..."
Anger surged in Xiang Shun's heart. Knowing that Han Hai had higher cultivation but wasn't using his full strength made him feel humiliated.
Han Hai, on the other hand, was excited.
There were not many in the world who could give him such a satisfying close-combat battle.
Xiang Shun was one of them.
But still...
"Is this all you've got?"
Han Hai shouted fiercely, and as he spoke, he started to exert more force, making Xiang Shun's palms go numb.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
Although Xiang Shun was still defending, he was being pushed back, leaving behind deep footprints and countless cracks on the ground.
The two moved closer to the large lake, with Xiang Shun clearly unable to cope.
At that moment, a white figure flashed by.
It was Su Yie, wielding the Zhou Wu Sword and the Sword of Defeated Grudges, coming like a swift wind to support Xiang Shun.
The horror of five thousand and five hundred units of Dragon's Strength was tremendous, and Su Yie's joining the battle caught Han Hai off guard.
Man and demon fought side by side, in perfect synergy.
Now, it was Han Hai who was forced to retreat.
Su Yie executed the Twin Sword Sovereigns technique, his swords swift like the wind, even faster than Xiang Shun, but what was key was not just his speed, but also his formidable and sinking strength.
"This guy is the Demon Emperor of the Myriad Demon Court? How can his strength be so great?"
Han Hai was terrified. Facing Su Yie alone would be manageable, but with Xiang Shun by his side, it was a different story.
Not far away, Gui Chouxie's eyes widened.
This was the first time Su Yie had fought at full strength since his breakthrough, and it was an impressive sight.
At this rate, Su Yie would surely be the preeminent fighter in the Eastern Lands within a century!
With that thought, Gui Chouxie narrowed his eyes, his gaze filled with profound meaning.
He struggled to contain the killing intent in his heart but reason told him that he couldn't kill Su Yie right now.
Unable to suppress, he had no choice but to let Su Yie grow.
Luckily, he and Su Yie were on the same side.
Just like that, Gui Chouxie's mindset swiftly shifted, and he relaxed.
At least he didn't have to worry about Su Yie posing a threat to him.
"Scram——"
Han Hai suddenly halted, thrusting his spear ferociously, a torrent of nefarious aura poured out like a black dragon howling, directly slamming into both Su Yie and Xiang Shun and sending them flying.
His eyes flashed fiercely, and he growled, "I've had enough! It's time for you to die!"
What do you think?
