Master of the Demon Emperor

```

"Demon Lord, how about I present his soul as a greeting gift?"

Ren Wokuang waved to Su Yie with a smile while stepping through the void toward him.

A greeting gift?

The demons were originally frightened by the strength displayed by Ren Wokuang, but the mention of a gift for their Demon Lord immediately filled them with joy.

So he's a friend of the Demon Lord!

No wonder he's so powerful!

Su Yie frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"

This guy was completely reliant on others' power and opportunistic within Emperor Su's Sect, so how could he be so powerful in reality?

Could he be disguising his true strength?

But on second thought, Ren Wokuang measured himself against Li Huahun, a being even Li Huahun could not contend with; naturally, he was afraid, which was a human reaction, yet it did not show the composure of a true strong person.

"My brother sent me, said you've been in some trouble recently and need support. He also told me not to send any messages within the sect, to surprise you," Ren Wokuang scratched his head and chuckled as he approached Su Yie.

Hu Qi shivered in the grasp of Ren Wokuang, struggling hard but unable to break free.

If he were in his prime, it would be one thing, but now only his Primordial Spirit remained.

"Trouble?"

Su Yie expressed his confusion; he did not doubt Ren Wokuang.

Besides, Ren Wokuang had no other reason to seek him out.

Considering Ren Wokuang's conversations with Li Huahun within the sect, Ren Wokuang was completely under Li Huahun's thumb and likely did not dare to act rashly, but Su Yie was still cautious and on alert, ready in case Ren Wokuang suddenly launched an attack.

"Divine Physique Hall has Zhao Rulong eyeing you, Brother Su. I'll protect you for a while, just command me!" Ren Wokuang said with a grin, casually calling Su Yie 'Brother'.

As he spoke, he crushed Hu Qi's Primordial Spirit, denying him even the chance of reincarnation.

Divine Physique Hall!

Su Yie realized—he had thought it might be the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame.

Divine Physique Hall had been quiet recently, and he thought they had either forgotten the grudge or had no time for him.

"I've taken care of some minions for you recently. I couldn't help showing up this time because I was too bored," Ren Wokuang sighed, looking like he was almost suffocated by boredom.

Su Yie nodded and said, "Come with me to the mountain."

Hearing this, Ren Wokuang grinned broadly and followed Su Yie, his obsequious attitude in stark contrast to his previous demeanor.

This scene further exhilarated the demons.

Such a powerful being had to bow to the Demon Lord and show submission!

"Why do they call you Ren Wokuang? Is it intentional?"

"Mhm, I imitated the name of my foster father, who is also my big brother's biological father."

"Oh? Li Huahun's father? What's his name?"

"Heh, I can't say for now, but I have six more brothers just as awesome as me."

"Is your family the Gourd Brothers?"

"What's the Gourd Brothers?"

Su Yie and Ren Wokuang chatted idly while walking toward Yaojian Mountain.

The addition of Ren Wokuang made Yaojian Mountain stronger, as Ren Wokuang confessed he had the cultivation of the Perfection of the Astral Projection Realm and was just one step away from breaking through to the next realm.

His natural talent for combat also enabled him to overpower Hu Qi with ease.

It took three full days for the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame to find out that Hu Qi was dead.

The death of Hu Qi sent the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame into a fury, vowing to exterminate the Demon Lord.

However, he did not take immediate action.

The specific reasons were known only to him.

A month passed by.

```

With the Great Cang Invincible Body, Su Yie's physical strength had already reached the Power of Eight Hundred Dragons, and most of the time, he had focused on cultivating demonic power; otherwise, his physical strength would have improved much more.

During this period, he had been sparring with Ren Wokuang, and the increase in his strength had shocked even Ren Wokuang.

Absolutely a genius graced by the heavens!

No wonder Li Huahun favored him so much!

Ren Wokuang's respect for Su Yie kept growing, calling him Brother Su more smoothly as time went on, and even within Emperor Su's Sect, it was the same.

With the Divine Shadow Legion restored, Su Yie was no longer afraid of an attack from the Divine Physique Hall or the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame.

One day, a piece of news shocked the world.

The Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame attacked Xiwan City in the Land of Qiling, breaking out into a major battle with the Qingyi Sect. He Youming himself took part in the battle, and only by mobilizing the full strength of the sect were they able to barely repel the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame. Xiwan City and the Qingyi Sect both suffered heavy losses.

"Mystical City? Why would the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame attack Mystical City?"

"A mystical city has descended from the sky, and the matter has not yet been thoroughly investigated!"

"It seems there's something fishy about the Mystical City!"

"Mighty Tang is weakened by the chaos in Chang An, and Western Buddha Dynasty is even more precarious, in name only. We're done for!"

"Compared to Wei Niantian, Demon Lord Qing Yan is not up to snuff."

Panic began to spread among the Seven Dynasties.

Su Yie learned of the incident through Emperor Su's Sect.

He Youming: Alas, it seems my Qingyi Sect cannot hold onto the Mystical City any longer.

Demon Lord Qing Yan: The Mystical City is too far from my Demon Sect, and Mighty Tang needs us. I'm sorry, but I cannot help.

Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: The Demon Clan is also eyeing the Mystical City. This is bad.

Overlord Luo Fu: We're all part of the same sect now. Let's not be so distant, shall we? Forget this Demon Clan, Human Clan business!

Feng Lie: The Human and Demon Clans are irreconcilable, and the blood feud will never be forgotten.

Tang Qingtian: Human heroes are tough. If you're so brave, why don't you go challenge the Overlord?

...

For the Ancient Wilderness, the Mystical City posed too many mysteries, and many powers were watching. Xiwan City's survival to this day did not mean the crisis was wholly averted, in fact, it had just begun.

Su Yie was faced with a choice: should he assist if the Mystical City were in trouble again?

The Land of Qiling was considered within the Bailing Territory, so he felt a responsibility to save them, and besides, they were all from Earth.

But doing so would completely offend the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame.

Just the thought of the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame sending Hu Qi to kill him was unbearable.

"Hmph, the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame, huh?"

Su Yie muttered to himself, and that very day, sought out Ren Wokuang, deciding to head to Xiwan City with him.

Ren Wokuang was also very interested in the Mystical City. As for the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame?

In his own words: Heh, who has Ren Wokuang ever been afraid of?

Xiwan City was on the edge of the Bailing Territory, close to the Human Clan. The two did not rush because the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame had just been repelled and was unlikely to return so soon.

Along the way, the two of them exchanged ideas.

Ren Wokuang was arrogant within Emperor Su's Sect, but very humble in front of Su Yie. No matter what Su Yie asked, he would answer truthfully.

He had been cultivating for much longer than Su Yie and was at a higher realm, which could benefit Su Yie. Find exclusive stories on empire

...

Underneath a waterfall, the Fiend Lord of the Hanging Flame sat by the edge of a lake, healing his wounds.

His face changed colors from blue to red, clearly severely injured.

He sat with eyes closed, gritting his teeth, murmuring: "He Youming... I didn't expect such a person in the small Seven Dynasties!"

In a one-on-one fight, he did not fear He Youming, but the Qingyi Sect's arrays were formidable, and the Technological Magical Instruments of Xiwan City, even though not fatal, could distract him during battle.

Just then, a mass of black mist descended from the sky, landing in front of him and transforming into a huge face, its true features indiscernible, revealing only the outline.

"Huo Xuan, the Mystical City must be seized. The Divine Physique Hall has already set its sights on the Demon Monarch, using the pretext of attacking to investigate the Mystical City. You must act quickly!"
