Master of the Demon Emperor

Boom! Boom! Boom...

The Black Scaled King flew in the sky, in his hands appearing black orbs made of condensed Demon Qi one after another, which he kept smashing down like explosives, attempting to blast Su Yie to death.

Su Yie dodged swiftly on the battlefield, but other Demon Beasts weren't so lucky. Those who couldn't evade in time were blown to death by their own king.

"Roar—"

A cyan wolf, the size of a calf, leaped from a mountain of corpses. Although it was small in size, its speed was extremely fast, reaching the velocity of a Shape-Shifting Great Demon, on par with the Human Cultivators at the Embryo Holding Realm.

Just as Su Yie finished slaying two wild bulls, this beast caught him off guard and scratched his back, enraging him so much that he turned around and struck with his sword.

The cyan wolf, no matter how quick, wasn't faster than Su Yie.

Especially when they were close to each other.

At that moment, Su Yie's face suddenly contorted, pain forcing him to tilt his head back and roar.

"Ahhh—"

His scream pierced the sky, audible across most of Xiwan City, causing a tightening feeling in everyone's heart.

The people at the city's edge became anxious, including soldiers and hundreds of citizens who had joined them, looking at the chaotic and perilous battlefield with both fear and anger.

Listening to Su Yie's screams, a chill ran down everyone's spine.

With a whoosh!

Out of nowhere, Su Yie's right pocket burst into flames, and Blazing Flames quickly enveloped his entire body, turning him into a man of fire.

This scene scared the attacking Demon Beasts so much that they all retreated at once, even the Black Scaled King furrowed his brow.

"What's going on?"

The Black Scaled King muttered to himself, showing a wary expression in case Su Yie was feigning.

Engulfed in Blazing Flames, Su Yie ran wildly, like a rampaging Fireball on the battlefield. Any Demon Beasts he bumped into were turned to ash within two or three breaths, making even the Black Scaled King take a sharp breath.

What kind of flames were these?

With such horrific burning power?

Even Elder Lord Qi Yang, watching from afar atop the Demon Cloud, was stunned.

He could feel that Su Yie's aura wasn't weakening but growing stronger instead.

"Could he possess a Strange Treasure or is there something extraordinary about his bloodline?"

Elder Lord Qi Yang narrowed his eyes, his thoughts racing like lightning.

To be favored by Emperor Su, this half-demon must have some exceptional qualities!

It appeared imperative to save this young man!

Meanwhile, Su Yie ceased his howling, but the flames on his body didn't dissipate. Instead, they grew even more intense.

"What's going on?"

Amidst the flames, Su Yie felt his pain diminish, and his heart was shocked.

Not only that, but the chat interface of Emperor Su's Sect flashed in his mind.

Black Tiger Emperor: Why hasn't the Demon Lord appeared lately?

Wux Qingyao: Hmph, you tiger demon even want to cling to a demon?

Black Tiger Emperor: None of your business.

Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: The Demon Sect has been bustling in the North recently. As one of The Four Lords, he's probably too busy to chat.

Demon Lord Qing Yan: What's the matter? Little tiger, missing me? I'm busy slaughtering cities!

Su Yie just quickly glanced at the chat page. He immediately pulled his mind back to reality, considering he was still in the midst of a life-and-death battle.

"Could the Great Dao Communication Device have merged with me?"

Su Yie thought to himself. He could no longer feel the presence of the device. A moment ago, when the device caught fire, it melted quickly into his body, giving him quite a scare.

Merging is good!

It spares him the worry of the device falling.

As he was engrossed in his random thoughts, the flames on his body rapidly dissipated, and there he stood in the ruins, his upper body bare.

What was miraculous was that his jeans hadn't burned. It made him wonder, "Could this be the last dignity left by the Great Dao Communication Device?"

Under the sunlight, Su Yie's upper body seemed coated in a layer of gold, his muscular lines perfect, filled with a powerful beauty, and even the Zhou Wu Sword no longer appeared plain and simple.

Su Yie clenched his left fist, eyes bursting with excitement.

His injuries had healed!

Even his strength had returned to its peak state, as if dragons were roaring inside his body with every clench of his fist.

He suddenly looked up at Black Scaled King, a fierce smile spreading across his face.

"Very good!"

The murderous intent in Su Yie's eyes became even more daunting, making Black Scaled King narrow his eyes.

He could feel that Su Yie seemed to have regained his strength, the flames from before were indeed no simple matter.

The surrounding Demon Beasts, seeing Su Yie no longer emitting fire, roared and once again charged at him.

The number of Demon Beasts slain by Su Yie had already surpassed five thousand, but relative to the entire army of Demon Beasts, this was like a drop in the ocean.

As a result of the refinement by the Great Dao's fire, Su Yie's speed had increased, and his Sword Qi had fully taken shape.

Sword Qi swept across, slashing through the horde of demons.

His Sword Qi, like a white crescent moon, was nearly ten meters long and possessed immense destructive power.

Wielded with ease, his figure darted rapidly, causing all Demon Beasts in his path to be cleaved and sent flying, creating a spectacular scene that was beyond description, provoking renewed cheers from the people near the city.

"I told you Su Yie was strong!"

"What is that... Sword Qi?"

"Hahaha, it looks like Su Yie is going to win!"

"What exactly happened just now?"

"Should we join in?"

More and more citizens rushed to the north of the city, and only when they saw the battlefield with their own eyes did they truly understand the terror.

Compared to the live broadcast, everything in front of their eyes was more vivid, the thick stench of blood wafting over, sickening and repellent, cooling their blood and deterring them from joining the battle.

Su Yie was originally an ordinary person, but in this battle, he kept honing his own skills, making his combat techniques increasingly adept.

"If only I had more demonic power, this would be much easier."

Su Yie thought to himself. Although he had been practicing the Demon Emperor's Divine Skill for over ten days, he didn't have much demonic power, which was far from enough to support the continuous expenditure of Sword Qi.

After slaying a thousand Demon Beasts, he no longer used Sword Qi, but leaped up and charged towards Black Scaled King.

Black Scaled King had been observing Su Yie all along, and he too was astounded by Su Yie's talent.

A Half-Demon like him, if put to his use, wouldn't that be delightful?

Seeing Su Yie approaching, he sprang up, flying up to three hundred meters in the air, out of Su Yie's reach.

"I'm giving you a chance now, join me, and I will make you a Demon King!"

Black Scaled King threw out the Branch Grasper, deliberately raising his voice so that the entire city could hear him.

He wanted to drive a wedge between Su Yie and Xiwan City.

Upon hearing this, the hearts of everyone in Xiwan City were lifted with apprehension, as Su Yie siding with Black Scaled King would be disastrous news for Xiwan City.

Su Yie fixed his gaze on Black Scaled King, narrowing his eyes, and uttered deliberately, "I, Su Yie, will not stoop to consorting with beasts!"

His voice, powered up, resounded through the skies above Xiwan City, stirring the whole city into a frenzy.

Despite there being a chance for life, Su Yie cast it aside, choosing to fight for them instead.

At this moment, Su Yie's image soared even higher in the hearts of the city's inhabitants.

"Our Earth's fortune!"

Tan Quanming exclaimed, those around him nodding in agreement.

At the same time, Su Yie suddenly felt a strange force from within the Zhou Wu Sword pouring into his palm.

Just like the first time he had slain a Snake Demon.

"Kill him! Kill him!"

A mysterious voice echoed in Su Yie's heart, urging him to launch another attack at Black Scaled King.

Su Yie's mentality inexplicably expanded, as if in his eyes, Black Scaled King had become as insignificant as poultry, fit to be killed with a flick of his hand!
