Master of the Demon Emperor

Facing Su Yie's threat, the white-clothed youth was dripping with cold sweat, subconsciously wanting to back down, but Su Yie's strength was too great, preventing him from breaking free.

Biting his teeth, he asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"

Su Yie stared at the white-clothed youth with a significant look and said, "Kid, can you see what's inside this gourd?"

The white-clothed youth shook his head like a rattle drum, full of regret in his heart. His Swift Wind Hand had actually failed, and now he was in big trouble.

Su Yie grasped the white-clothed youth, his left hand searching over his body.

The search made the white-clothed youth's skin crawl.

He said angrily, "If you want to kill or flay me, I am at your mercy!"

He was horrified to discover that the passersby around them seemed not to see their altercation, with no one casting a glance their way.

This weirdness sent shivers down his spine.

Su Yie nodded and said, "Your talent isn't bad, but unfortunately, your cultivation techniques are too mixed."

The white-clothed youth looked tense and didn't answer.

"What is your name?"

Su Yie looked at him and asked—he had entered the human realm to experience its various states.

Seeing this youth, Su Yie inexplicably wanted to know more about him.

Maybe this was fate.

"I... my name is Xing Daoshu..."

The white-clothed youth answered cautiously, not daring to meet Su Yie's eyes.

Su Yie nodded and said, "Indeed, a name can determine one's life."

"..."

Xing Daoshu wanted to retort subconsciously but didn't dare to.

"If you can make it to Demon Lord City within seven days, I will grant you an opportunity," Su Yie said as he left these words behind and departed. Demon Lord City was incredibly far from this city. With Xing Daoshu's cultivation level, he would need to travel nonstop, and he would face numerous dangers along the way.

Most importantly, in this vast world, Demon Lord City was known for its dire reputation as a center of power, and ordinary beings dared not approach it.

So this journey tested not only one's strength and luck but also one's courage.

Xing Daoshu was stunned.

Although he considered his abilities to be decent, heading for Demon Lord City was practically seeking death.

But Su Yie's strength made him yearn for it.

When he came back to his senses, Su Yie had already disappeared into the crowd.

...

Back in Demon Lord City, Su Yie told Demon Lord Qing Yan about the matter.

"Mm, I'll tell the city guards," Demon Lord Qing Yan nodded. If Su Yie thought someone's talent was good, he must be no ordinary person, and he was also curious.

In his understanding, the word "talent" was synonymous with Su Yie.

That day, a piece of news spread within Emperor Su's Sect.

Hu Tu the God Killer had been targeted by Shi Dutian. His physical body was destroyed, but fortunately, he managed to teleport to Celestial Martial Emperor's side in time.

Most people in Emperor Su's Sect laughed it off, of course, without any ill will.

As an elder, Yang Jian naturally couldn't keep silent.

He suggested that the next time someone encountered Shi Dutian, any member of the sect who believed they were strong enough could teleport over to join the fight.

Everyone agreed to this suggestion. Shi Dutian was too strong; without killing him, all members of Emperor Su's Sect would face danger.

Moreover, when had Emperor Su's Sect ever been afraid?

This made Su Yie cautious, and he immediately bid farewell to Demon Lord Qing Yan and left alone.

He was definitely the existence that Shi Dutian most wanted to kill, so he had to go out and lure Shi Dutian.

"You're courting death!"

Feng Long couldn't help but mock, but it was used to it by now, so it didn't rage.

After flying through the starry sky for fifteen days, Shi Dutian still had not appeared.

Su Yie grew more worried.

There's always the feeling that a storm is about to hit.

On this day,

while cultivating on a meteorite, Su Yie was suddenly interrupted by a teleportation request. He hesitated for a moment, then accepted the request.

Immediately after, Nan Xiaopao appeared before him.

"Why are you here? Don't you know it's very dangerous lately?"

Su Yie frowned and asked. Nan Xiaopao's cultivation had reached the level of a Semi-Saint, just one step away from the Saint Realm, but in face of Shi Dutian, she was like cannon fodder.

Nan Xiaopao shook her head. At that moment, a shadowy figure emerged from her body, condensing into a form that was hard to distinguish.

Su Yie recognized her identity at a glance, the Mistress of Fate.

He had always been curious about the Mistress of Fate.

Because he didn't know just how powerful the Mistress of Fate truly was.

"Su Yie, Emperor Su's Sect has encountered great trouble. The master is willing to take you to a place of refuge."

Nan Xiaopao said. All the while, she moved closer to Su Yie and hugged his right arm.

Su Yie frowned, just about to speak, when the Mistress of Fate spoke up.

"The Hongmeng Divine Spirits and the Origin Divine Clan have joined forces; Emperor Su's Sect is not going to survive. With my protection, I presume the Hongmeng Divine Spirits would not dare to trouble you."

As ever, the tone of the Mistress of Fate was indifferent, but her words took Su Yie by surprise.

The Hongmeng Divine Spirits have to give face to the Mistress of Fate?

Is destiny that powerful?

"The Origin Divine Clan?"

Su Yie asked in surprise. This race, why hadn't he heard of it before?

"Beyond the Hongmeng, there is an endless Void, ruled by the Origin Divine Clan. They are immensely powerful, forcing the Hongmeng to halt its expansion. That Shi Dutian is an ancestor of the Origin Divine Clan, his power is unfathomable, a match for the Hongmeng Divine Spirits."

The Mistress of Fate explained, causing Su Yie's brows to knit tightly.

He saw his worldview expand once more.

Are both inside and outside of the Hongmeng now against Emperor Su's Sect?

Currently, Emperor Su's Sect can't even withstand a single Hongmeng Divine Spirit, let alone a coalition of Hongmeng Divine Spirits and the Origin Divine Clan.

A hopeless situation!

An unprecedented crisis!

Su Yie was in turmoil, struggling to stay calm.

"Let's retreat, the master will protect us," Nan Xiaopao whispered, her beautiful eyes fixed on Su Yie.

She knew Su Yie was ambitious, but at this critical juncture, she had to persuade him.

Su Yie fell into silence. He could escape, but Emperor Su's Sect could not.

As Emperor Su, who had once promised to protect everyone in the sect, how could he break his word?

Although his talent was exceptional, his success to this day was inseparably linked to the assistance of Emperor Su's Sect.

He took a deep breath and said, "Wait for me, I will get through this crisis safely."

Nan Xiaopao became anxious. Emperor Su's Sect couldn't even handle Tai Yi Hundun; how could they face all the Hongmeng Divine Spirits and the Origin Divine Clan?

It's completely like hitting a rock with an egg!

"Kid, don't put too much faith in Emperor Su's Sect. Although it is home to many strong cultivators, below the Hongmeng Divine Spirits, all beings are mere ants. If you persist in this delusion, do you want my disciple to be in sorrow forever?"

The Mistress of Fate said. Unfortunately, it was still unable to sway Su Yie.

Su Yie turned to Nan Xiaopao, reassuring her, "Be good, wait for me."

A man of honor cannot lack integrity!

Even if all members of Emperor Su's Sect were slaughtered, he could lie low for a while and wait for a chance to rise again, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.

He looked at the Mistress of Fate again, asking, "Female Supreme, are the Hongmeng Divine Spirits truly invincible? Are there existences more powerful than the Hongmeng Divine Spirits and the Origin Divine Clan?"

He had a vague answer in his heart but sought confirmation.

"There are, there is the Celestial Emperor, peerless and supreme. But I advise you to dismiss that thought. Don't think that if the Celestial Emperor favors you, you can enlist his help. The Celestial Emperor who taught you before was just a doppelganger."

"Out of billions of doppelgangers, only one favoured you."
