Master of the Demon Emperor

"Boya is right; we should not lose our composure just because of a Demon Lord."

Li Mengde nodded and smiled, not irritated by Liu Boyya interrupting him, but rather showing a pleased expression.

The generals seated below him all breathed a sigh of relief.

Apart from Li Linlang, none of the generals wanted to battle the Demon Lord, as it was said that the Demon Lord's strength could tear apart Condensed Spirit Demon Kings alive, tantamount to tearing apart Nascent Soul cultivators alive, so naturally, they did not dare to confront him head-on.

"Great Wei's request for the Demon Lord's assist and their spreading of this news might indicate that their relationship isn't as good as we thought. Otherwise, they would have used the Demon Lord as a secret weapon instead of deliberately using the name of the Demon Lord to intimidate us. Hence, we can speculate that Great Wei is bluffing,"

Liu Boya continued, his profound eyes seeming to see through everything.

The generals nodded in agreement, thinking his analysis made sense.

Li Mengde swirled his wine bowl, his lips curling into a smile, "In that case, do we still have a chance to win over the Demon Lord?"

Experience more content on empire

Liu Boya chuckled in response, "If we want to unify the Seven Dynasties, we must maintain a good relationship with the Demon Clan. With the Demon Lord's ambition to swallow the Bailing Territory, befriending him would be a win-win for both parties."

Whether it be Mighty Tang or the Demon Lord, once unified, they must both conserve their strength and avoid further war. If the two sides could reach a consensus, nothing could be better.

The generals brightened up at the possibility of winning over the Demon Lord.

...

Western Buddha Dynasty's military camp.

All the soldiers here were bald, training with sticks and cudgels, much like monks.

In the center of the camp, King Kuang Zhentian of the Western Buddha Dynasty was anxiously discussing the matter of the Demon Lord's imminent attack with his warriors.

Kuang Zhentian, clad in imperial robes, had a resolute face, bearing a strong resemblance to Kuang Chu'e.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

But when he heard about the Demon Lord's support for Great Wei, he was immediately furious.

"It looks like he's seeking revenge on us!"

Kuang Zhentian said in a grave voice, recalling his brother Kuang Chu'e, who had been to Xiwan City and was slashed by Su Yie to the point where only his Nascent Soul remained, and was still recuperating.

Thus, in his view, the Demon Lord must be seeking revenge against their Western Buddha Dynasty by supporting Great Wei.

The Demon Lord's revengeful nature was well known; the Evil Bat Demon and the Demon Emperor served as precedents.

Especially the Evil Bat Demon, who was pursued by the Demon Lord right to the front of the Evil Bat Cave.

"Inside the Western Buddha Dynasty, probably no one can stop the Demon Lord."

A military officer spoke in a grave tone, his face showing fear.

The other officers nodded, for the strength of the Demon Lord was undeniable.

"Continue to assault the territory; if the Demon Lord dares to make a move, he will not return alive!"

Kuang Zhentian vowed to kill Su Yie with a grim voice.

At the same time.

The news of the Demon Lord's support for Great Wei also started spreading to Great Yuan, Zhao, Jin, and Xuan, stirring up a storm across the land.

Inside Emperor Su's Sect.

Demon Lord Qing Yan: Tsk tsk, the Demon Lord actually supports Great Wei, it seems I have a chance to see just how monstrous he really is.

Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: Demon Lord, he will join Emperor Su's Sect later on, so try not to be too hard on him.

Li Huahun: The Demon Lord is my friend; whoever dares to touch him, I'll annihilate their entire sect, their entire faith!

Demon Lord Qing Yan: ...

Black Tiger Emperor: Holy smokes, the Demon Lord actually became friends with Senior Li?

Li Zuxuan: I hope my Great Tang isn't going to be destroyed because of the Demon Lord...

...

Meanwhile, Su Yie, who was in the midst of cultivating, was amused by their chat, and his fondness for Li Huahun spiked rapidly.

He had thought Li Huahun was just joking, but it turned out he truly considered him a friend.

With Li Huahun's threats in place, within Emperor Su's Sect, who would dare target him?

As he monitored the conversation, Su Yie continued to take pills, striving to increase his own power to the Strength of Six Hundred Dragons before the arrival of the Demon Sect.

He was getting closer and closer to the Late Stage of the Divine Demon King Realm.

Such a speed of progress, looking across the Seven Dynasties and the Demon Clan, who could compare?

If given the chance, he must find out what his body constitution truly was.

Perhaps Li Huahun knew.

During the following half-month, Great Wei and the Western Buddha Dynasty were fighting every day. Since the Western Buddha Dynasty did not deploy strong generals, the Four Elders of Great Wei did not use Su Yie as their trump card, which allowed Su Yie to enjoy some leisure time.

After refining his body with pills and Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, his physical strength reached five hundred and eighty Dragon's Strength!

He had also successfully broken through to the Late Stage of the Divine Demon King Realm!

The demonic power inside his body doubled!

His vigorous life force was so formidable that soldiers within a radius of a hundred meters could feel it, all clicking their tongues in secret while also looking forward to seeing Su Yie fiercely slaughtering his enemies.

One day, he made a breakthrough to the third layer of the Demon Emperor's Divine Skill, the Demon Emperor's Qi!

Upon this breakthrough, his demonic power began to surge wildly, yet his realm did not increase.

In the depths of his soul, he felt that he had gained an invisible aura.

The Demon Emperor's Qi was a kind of presence that could intimidate enemies, and additionally, the training speed of this layer of the technique was more than five times faster than the previous one!

The Black Jiao King Robe fluttered noisily as Su Yie slowly opened his eyes.

His hair had grown to his shoulders, no longer resembling a modern-day man from Hua Xia.

Tying the hair at the back of his head with a thin string, while letting the hair by his ears drape naturally, combined with his stern visage, gave him the appearance of a chivalrous warrior.

After breaking through the third layer of the Demon Emperor's Divine Skill, he received another opportunity to invite someone.

Invite any of the following beings to join Emperor Su's Sect!

Feng Lie!

Blade Master Peng Canghai!

Empress of the Great Zhou!

Crimson Lotus Demon Lord!

Piercing Arm Monkey!

...

A total of twenty-five names, most of which he had not encountered before, with repeats including Mo Jiuqing, Feng Lie, Fang Tian Divine Fist, and Blade Master Peng Canghai.

"Piercing Arm Monkey? One of the Four Monstrous Monkeys?"

Su Yie was inwardly amazed. He had read Journey to the West and knew that there were several Piercing Arm Monkeys on Huaguo Mountain, which showed that they were not unique.

But to think that the Ancient Wilderness also had Piercing Arm Monkeys!

Adding Di Jun, Tai Yie, and Xuanyuan Human Emperor, would Sun Wukong appear in the future?

Many places in the Ancient Wilderness bore similarities to ancient Hua Xia, such as the Seven Dynasties' Tang, Jin, Wei, Great Yuan, and Western Buddha, and even the people here used Chinese characters for writing.

Could it be a parallel universe to ancient Earth?

After pondering for a while, Su Yie decided not to dwell on the Piercing Arm Monkey and instead went to Xiang Yu's room to inquire about other unfamiliar names.

Xiang Yu was delighted, Su Yie had only sought her out this one time in half a month, naturally blooming her happiness. She did her best to answer all of Su Yie's questions.

"The Empress of the Great Zhou is said to be from another dynastic kingdom on the other side of the Eastern Lands, far beyond what the Seven Dynasties can compare to. She is an overwhelming presence, the exact details are unclear to me, but she ranks in the forefront on the Worldly Renowned Register."

"The Crimson Lotus Demon Lord is one of the Four Kings of the Demon Sect, the only Witch among the Lords; you may encounter her on the battlefield soon."

"The Piercing Arm Monkey comes from the legendary Spirit Monkeys, though that is just a myth, likely fabricated by the folklore."

"Luo Huchen is said to have visited the Qingyi Sect and became famous for being personally received by the Sect Leader, but he probably doesn't belong to the Seven Dynasties."

...

"Fang Tian Divine Fist is a cultivator who roams the world. It is said that his divine fists are unrivaled anywhere, though that's likely an exaggeration."

Xiang Yu rambled on, showing a bit of knowledge about almost every name.

Stroking his chin, Su Yie fell into deep thought, who should he choose?
