Master of the Demon Emperor

"What exactly sets the standard for 'Dragon's Strength'?"

Su Yie asked curiously. Just a single True Dragon's Tendon caused him so much pain, yet he bore the Strength of a Hundred Dragons and didn't feel he could match that True Dragon.

Li Huahun replied, "The 'Dragon's Strength' spoken of in cultivation actually refers only to the Mortal Dragon. Since there are so many types of dragons with varying cultivation levels, the standard for cultivated Dragon's Strength is based on an average adult dragon. These dragons are the most mediocre and include undisciplined Mortal Dragons.

Dragons have nine offspring, and these offspring birth various types of dragons. Serpent dragons are hybrids that retain True Dragon blood within them and have the potential to transform into dragons one day."

Mortal Dragon's Strength?

Su Yie suddenly realized—could it be that Dragon's Strength meant the weakest kind of dragon?

Yet, even the dragons with the least impressive bloodlines were mighty. Among their peers, dragons were almost like kings, standing at the very top of the pyramid of living beings.

"All right, I should go down and rest," said Li Huahun as he turned to leave. He had delivered the formal gift, so it was time to mingle with the crowd.

Xiang Yu, while wiping the water stains off Su Yie with a white cloth, asked with concern, "Young Master, are you feeling all right?"

Su Yie nodded and said with a light laugh, "Very well."

Better than ever before!

With the Strength of a Hundred Dragons, plus the True Dragon's Tendon, his physique had reached a new peak.

In that moment, he even felt he could sweep away anyone in the Condensed Spirit Demon King Realm or the Nascent Soul Realm, full of confidence.

He then proceeded to ask Xiang Yu about some unfamiliar names and, once he was clear on who they were, he started inviting newcomers to join the sect.

"Fairy Sea Goddess? Never heard of her. Northern Sea Bull Demon, though, I have read about in ancient texts. It is said that the northern part of the Eastern Lands is called Northern Sea, where numerous Great Demons live. Perhaps the Bull Demon is one of them..."

"Emperor of Qin, on par with the Empress of the Great Zhou, ranked among the top five in the Worldly Renowned Register. It is said that Great Qin is one of the most prosperous Dynastic Kingdoms of the Human Tribe of the Eastern Lands, by no means weaker than Great Zhou."

"Peach Mountain's Old Immortal, it is said that in the Eastern Lands there's a Peach Mountain with immortal fruits growing on it and an old immortal living there, but whether it's true or not..."

Xiang Yu started to explain. However, this time she could only cover some names; there were others she had not heard of.

"Hmm, you should go back and rest," said Su Yie as he nodded and turned to leave.

Xiang Yu then turned and headed to her own guest room. As long as Su Yie was fine, she had no worries.

Back in his room, Su Yie mulled over his options and decided to choose Tang Qingtian. This fellow had appeared too often, indicating some kind of fate between them.

As for the other names that sounded formidable, he wasn't particularly eager; after all, the number of powerful figures in Emperor Su's Sect had been growing.

Within the chat screen of the Emperor Su's Sect members.

Emperor Su invited Tang Qingtian to join Emperor Su's Sect!

Corpse Ghost King Xue Li: Hahaha, the Seven Dynasties' battlefield is simply Heaven!

Black Tiger Emperor: Huh? A newbie has arrived, everyone come out to watch!

Xiahou Jinxuan: Tang Qingtian! How did this guy get here?

Demon Wolf Star: You know him?

Tang Qingtian: You damn creatures, why are you in my mind?

Shangguan Wuji: Truly arrogant, Sect Master, eliminate him!

...

Just as Su Yie was about to pour himself a drink, he saw Tang Qingtian's words and his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Another troublemaker!

Xiahou Jinxuan began to introduce Tang Qingtian. It turned out that on the other side of the Eastern Lands, within the land of the Human Tribe, there was a sect called the Sword Sect.

The Sword Sect, as its name suggests, only accepted sword cultivators.

The Sword Sect's status was incredibly exalted, to the point where even the Demon Clan dared not provoke them.

Tang Qingtian: If you dare pull any tricks, be careful I don't slay you all. And you, Xiahou Jinxuan, dare to betray me!

Xiahou Jinxuan: Are you a pig?

Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: Tang Qingtian, do you still recognize me?

Tang Qingtian: Big Brother Xia, you're here too!

Li Huahun: Always shouting—this new guy, I don't like him. Let's eliminate him.

Tang Qingtian: And who do you think you are? Wanting to eliminate me? Don't piss and then take a good look at your own morality!

...

Su Yie felt embarrassed, this guy was even more reckless than Demon Wolf Star.

He could already imagine the expression on Li Huahun, who was in the next room—it must be cold as ice.

Su Yie had no choice but to intervene using his identity as Emperor Su, deliberately using an angry mood to shake the entire Sect, and incidentally intimidate the Empress of the Great Zhou, He Youming, Piercing Arm Monkey, and other members of Su Imperial Clan.

Thus, within the Emperor Su's Sect, there were cries of despair, even the Empress of the Great Zhou and the Piercing Arm Monkey were exclaiming at the terrifying pressure of Emperor Su.

Clang——

A sound of a table being toppled over came from the next room; presumably, Li Huahun was also in unbearable pain.

Su Yie soon calmed down, and the oppressive force that loomed over Emperor Su's Sect also dissipated.

Tang Qingtian immediately chickened out, and amid the curses of the entire Sect, he hastily handed over the resources for joining the Sect.

He handed over a magic artifact, a golden bracelet, a Grade Five medium magic artifact, said to be capable of warding off evil and exorcising demons; Su Yie wasn't interested and threw it directly into the Repository of the Dao.

At that moment, someone in the Emperor Su's Sect suddenly called for help.

Wuu You: Emperor Su, I request support, I am being hunted by my enemies, and there are over ten Cultivators at the Astral Projection Realm, and one who has surpassed it.

Li Zuxuan: Ancestor, where are you?

Wuu You: Western Extreme Desert.

Demon Wolf Star: Send the Divine Shadow Legion! Let them experience the might of the Divine Shadow Legion!

...

Su Yie frowned, changes were brewing in Chang An, and he didn't want to use the Divine Shadow Legion.

He decided to implement a plan he had prepared long ago.

That was to offer a reward for help!

Emperor Su: Whoever is willing to help Wuu You, once the matter is successful, this Emperor will reward him with two Sixth-Grade magical artifacts!

Demon Wolf Star: Two Sixth-Grade magical artifacts! Is that for real? Can I do it?

Black Tiger Emperor: Shut up, you think you're up to it?

Piercing Arm Monkey: Are those words true? I'll go!

Emperor Su: Once successful, this Emperor will send the magical artifacts to you, just as when you submit resources for joining the Sect. In the future, you can also trade with each other. With just a thought, you can send items to one another.

If anyone is found by this Emperor to be faking or cheating, this Emperor will decide based on the seriousness of the offense whether to expel them from the Emperor Su's Sect or to directly eradicate them!

Emperor Su: Furthermore, members who have submitted resources for joining the Sect can receive assistance from this Emperor once, and how I help will be determined by your contributions.

Demon Lord Qing Yan: That sounds possible, I'm quite interested in the treasures of the Sect Master.

Piercing Arm Monkey: Don't fight with me! I want it!

Tang Qingtian: Any kind of assistance? How about helping me obliterate Great Xia?

...

Emperor Su's arrangement enlivened the whole Sect, and Piercing Arm Monkey immediately headed to the Western Extreme Desert to resolve the issue for Wuu You.

This measure not only conserved the use of the Divine Shadow Legion but also fostered camaraderie among the members of the Su Imperial Clan.

Only…

It was too damaging to his finances!

Two Sixth-Grade magical artifacts were treasures from the Mysterious Ancestor's Tomb, and it pained his heart to part with them.

After all, the enemy was a being that had surpassed the Astral Projection Realm; he had to make a heavy investment to get anyone willing to go.

It seemed that in the future, he would need to find ways to collect more treasures.

Having thought this, Su Yie continued his cultivation practice.

Three days passed quickly.

The battle between the Sword Saint and the Sword God was finally upon them. As the day barely dawned, the streets of Chang An City were crowded with people, and the figures of Cultivators stood atop tall buildings and eaves.

All were waiting for Xia Tianyi and Lu Ziwei to make their entrance!

Su Yie also got up early, and as soon as he stepped out, Li Huahun followed suit.

"So early?" asked Su Yie.

Li Huahun rolled his eyes and said, "It's to protect you, of course."
