Master of the Demon Emperor

Su Yi's departure went unnoticed by the citizens of Xiwan City, and on the second day after Su Yi left, some individuals of outstanding strength also formed groups and left.

They all thought that staying in Xiwan City would not end well, and just like that, the population of Xiwan City dwindled, causing those who remained to grow even more anxious.

Although Xiwan City had a large population, most people had average cultivation talents, and many were like Su Yi – either with the Five Elements Extreme Pulse Body or the Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root, with no aptitude for cultivation at all, and they dared not leave the city.

Tan Quanming's chief bodyguard, Zhang Yicheng, also left the city, but Tan Quanming did not; he swore he would share the fate of Xiwan City.

The death of the Bat Empress also started to spread.

Inside Emperor Su's Sect, there was an endless discussion.

Serpent King of the Eastern Marshlands: The Bat Empress? Tsk, tsk, a well-known female demon on the continent dies? They say she was quite tasteful; truly a pity.

Black Tiger Emperor: Big brother, you know so much?

Demon Lord Qing Yan: The Bat Empress had unclear relationships with many Great Demon Kings of the Demon Clan; this matter is probably far from over.

Demon Wolf Star: What are those Great Demon Kings compared to the Divine Shadow Legion?

Wu Qingyao: Can Mystical City no longer be defended?

While Su Yi spied on their conversations, he led five thousand monsters across mountains and ridges.

Along the way, the Purple Back Bear King rallied three shape-shifting Great Demons, and together with their personal soldiers, they exceeded five thousand in number, roughly amounting to a small Demon Army with varying levels of strength.

The Demon Army marched on majestically, and along the way, no monsters dared to provoke them.

At dawn the next day, they continued their journey, leaving the edge of the Land of Qiling; after Su Yi demonstrated his overwhelming power, the three shape-shifting Great Demons did not dare to play any tricks and behaved very honestly for the time being.

"Great King, where is our destination?"

A shape-shifting Great Demon asked, he was a canine demon, named the Ashen Rock Hound King, who still retained the ears and nose of a dog and wore a body of dog fur, his strength was quite decent.

Su Yi pondered and said, "The best would be a blessed land that is suitable for us to live in."

"The Five Barrens and the Ten Lands are occupied everywhere by Demon Kings and Demon Emperors; it's difficult."

Another shape-shifting Great Demon called the Wild Elephant Kui spoke up.

The Purple Back Bear King did not make a sound; although he was stronger than the three shape-shifting Great Demons, he had never left the Land of Qiling and knew little about the outside world, so he was too embarrassed to speak up.

There was another shape-shifting Great Demon who was silent and of few words, named Chi Tianyi, a red eagle who had cultivated into a spirit. It was said that he had come from another region, fleeing calamity to the Land of Qiling, where he was taken in by Elder Lord Qi Yang.

"The Bat Empress is dead; her old flames will surely come to avenge her. If we are to settle in the mountains, we must stay far from here," continued Ashen Rock Hound King.

His words gained the approval of Su Yi and the other Great Demons.

"Let's head east, and stop when we find a suitable place."

Su Yi decided, and as he spoke, he gave Nan Xiaopao a gentle smile.

In the Ancient Wilderness, they would rely on each other for survival.

Nan Xiaopao was not afraid; instead, she was excited.

Purple Back Bear King yelled, "My minions, scatter and search for some non-toxic fruits for the Great King and the Queen. Don't stray too far. If there's an enemy attack, support each other!"

"Yes!"

The surrounding monsters answered, at this moment they were traveling between mountains. Looking out as far as the eye could see, the land was filled with desolate mountains and ridges, with patches of small woods in the slopes and valleys.

A thousand of Purple Back Bear King's monsters scattered in various directions.

Having so many subordinate monsters came in handy, and Su Yi finally understood why so many people loved power.

The journey was joyful; the monsters they encountered either did not dare to provoke them or were domineeringly subdued by Su Yi.

Battle after battle had thoroughly convinced all the demons, filling their hearts with admiration for Su Yie.

Even the great monsters who had just entered the Mystic Demon King Realm were violently torn apart by Su Yie.

In this way, five days hurried by.

Every night, Su Yie absorbed the Demon Core of the Bat Empress, and after five full nights, he finally finished absorbing it. His strength surged to an astonishing one hundred and ninety units of Dragon's Strength, the vigor of his blood qi causing terror among the demons.

When they learned that the Demon Core Su Yie absorbed came from the Bat Empress, they were all frightened.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Among the Demon Clan, the Bat Empress was quite famous.

One day, Su Yie led the monsters to a canyon, where he had been subduing more along the way. The number of monsters following him had reached eight thousand, including two more shape-shifting great monsters.

"My King, the demon qi here is extremely dense, we must be careful," warned the Purple Back Bear King, who, although appearing proud and unrestrained, had been very cautious since leaving the Land of Qiling; to put it in harsher terms, he was cowardly.

Su Yie nodded but didn't take it seriously, as he sensed no danger.

The procession of eight thousand monsters entered the canyon with great fanfare, their presence no small feat, given many of the monsters' colossal sizes.

Atop the valley was a cliff from which perched a sparrow looking down below. Its eyes, the size of rice grains, stared at the monsters, and a faint red glint could sometimes be seen flickering within them.

With a flutter, it spread its wings and flew away, soon vanishing into the distance.

The sun blazed high, the canyon was wide, and the path was strewn with rubble. Looking ahead, it seemed as if there were no obstruction.

"Awoooo—"

As they progressed to the middle of the canyon, a wolf's howl echoed from above, startling all the monsters who instantly looked up.

They saw a black wolf standing at the brink of a hundred-meter high cliff, howling at the sky with a mouth full of sharp teeth, a body five meters in length, and powerful limbs.

As its howl spread, monster after monster emerged from the cliffs on both sides, mostly wolf demons but also tigers, leopards, bears, and dogs, all looking down fiercely.

"It's an ambush after all!"

The Purple Back Bear King quickly grabbed his Tusks Stick, ready for battle.

"We are but passing through and have no intention of seizing your territory," announced the Ashen Rock Hound King.

The monsters had a strong sense of guarding their territory. Along the way, many had mistaken them for wanting to seize their territory, but thankfully, after some explanation, they had managed to avoid conflict.

Moreover, they were in a canyon now, at a tactical disadvantage, not a good place to start a battle.

"Ha, we're the ones who want to eat you!"

Just then, a mocking and cruel voice came forth as a Demon King, towering three zhang tall, appeared at the edge of the cliff, looking down upon them.

This Demon King had a mane, and although humanoid in shape, his green face, jagged teeth, and exaggerated muscles made his presence oppressive. His eyes, filled with brutality and ferocity, clearly revealed his intention to devour all the demons below.

"This guy is strong, definitely a Divine Power Demon King!"

The usually quiet Chi Tianyi suddenly spoke, stressing the point, "He might be stronger than Elder Lord Qi Yang."

"What's there to fear? They don't have as many monsters as we do!"

Nan Xiaopao waved his hand dismissively, not to mention they had Su Yie with them.

No sooner had his words fallen than more and more monsters appeared on both sides of the cliff like two black lines stretching to the ends of the earth, tightening the tension among the gathered demons.

"Remember, the Demon King who will feast on you is called King Aisha!"

The Divine Power Demon King laughed wildly, and as his voice faded, monsters on both sides of the cliff began to make all sorts of strange cries and roars, wildly excited for the feast that was about to come.
