Master of the Demon Emperor

Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Citywide Excitement



Beast?

The eyes of the Black Scaled King narrowed, a cold light bursting forth from them.

He detested most when humans insulted the Demon Clan by calling them beasts, especially since his opponent was a demon too!

"Since that's the case, you can go to hell!"

With a sinister smile, the Black Scaled King swooped towards Su Yie, his claws extending like multiple steel blades, ripping through the air, creating the sound of a vacuum being torn apart.

Just in time!

Su Yie flashed a cold, grim grin.

Under the influence of the Zhou Wu Sword, he suddenly felt the Black Scaled King wasn't as terrifying.

The Black Scaled King burst forth at his maximum speed, turning into a black arrow that surged into the battlefield, quickly reaching in front of Su Yie. Everything happened in the blink of an eye; he struck his claw towards Su Yie's neck, intending to decapitate him.

Spurt—

Blood splattered as the Black Scaled King whisked past Su Yie, landing ten meters behind him, before the mountain of corpses.

Both stood motionless, as if the scene around them had frozen.

At that moment, an arm covered with black scales spiraled down, landing between the two of them.

Su Yie was still in a sword-swinging stance, with blood flowing down the blade of the Zhou Wu Sword, dripping to the ground.

"How is this possible..."

The Black Scaled King trembled all over, his face showing disbelief as he saw his right shoulder dripping with blood, revealing grim white bones.

This scene terrified the surrounding Demon Beasts.

In their hearts, how powerful was their king, to be defeated and to have lost an arm to this half-demon?

Even Elder Lord Qi Yang was taken aback.

"This youngster..."

Elder Lord Qi Yang's eyes widened in shock. In his eyes, although Su Yie was strong, he clearly wasn't at the same level as the Black Scaled King. And now, to have inflicted wounds on the Black Scaled King?

What a terrifying rate of growth!

A prodigy!

An absolute prodigy!

Then, Su Yie suddenly turned around, stamping his right foot, causing the devastated ground to crack open.

A distance of ten meters was incredibly short for them!

The Black Scaled King instinctively retreated, but it was too late; the tip of the sword was already at his chest.

Their eyes met, and he saw the terrifying murderous intent in Su Yie's eyes.

Even he, who had killed numerous people, felt chilled to the bone.

"Those eyes..."

The Black Scaled King was terrified and hastily tried to block with his left hand.

The sword blade pierced his palm as easily as it would tofu, but he was stubborn, using his own bones to forcibly jam the Zhou Wu Sword, preventing its tip from reaching his throat.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Three streaks of black light shot out from the Black Scaled King's waist like darts aimed at Su Yie.

With a flick of his right hand, the Zhou Wu Sword shattered the Black Scaled King's left palm, and the blade conjured several sword flowers in mid-air, knocking down the three black lights, which turned out to be three scales.

Seeing the situation turn dire, the Black Scaled King turned to flee.

With both arms lost, his strength diminished significantly, and he could no longer take on Su Yie head-on.

Having just returned to his peak state, with the stimulation from the Zhou Wu Sword, how could Su Yie let him run away?

With a thunderous sound!

Su Yie's legs bent, and he shot into the sky like a cannonball, captured in the shot by the live broadcast.

Bare-chested, he was like a deity, astonishing countless people.

"Don't even think of escaping!"

Su Yie's gaze was icy as he leapt towards the Black Scaled King.

Although the Black Scaled King had suffered severe injuries, his reflexes and speed were still there, allowing him to dodge easily.

And so, Su Yie began his insane pursuit of the Black Scaled King, slaughtering any Demon Beast he encountered along the way as effortlessly as cutting vegetables.

"Run? Keep running!"

Crazy laughter from Su Yie travelled from behind, taunting the Black Scaled King.

Perhaps because of the Zhou Wu Sword, Su Yie was faster and stronger, multiplying the pressure on the Black Scaled King.

Every time the Black Scaled King tried to take to the sky, the Sword Qi from Su Yie would strike from behind, slashing him down, driving him to the brink of madness.

"Throw your sword!"

At that moment, that mysterious voice commanded again in Su Yie's heart, startling him and causing him to subconsciously throw the Zhou Wu Sword.

```

Hiss——

The long sword tore through the air, slashing across the mount of corpses and killing one Demon Beast after another, piercing through the Black Scaled King's head with lightning speed.

Bang!

The Black Scaled King's head burst open like a watermelon, and its body fell forward, collapsing to its knees on the ground as blood splattered everywhere.

A Demon King had fallen just like that!

Silence!

The entire battlefield fell silent, all Demon Beasts stopped in their tracks, and those on the mount of corpses shivered with fear, not daring to advance.

Elder Lord Qi Yang above the Demon Cloud stared with his mouth agape, his face full of disbelief.

The Black Scaled King died just like that?

Hahaha——

The Zhou Wu Sword, spinning, flew back into Su Yie's hand, and Su Yie was also slightly stunned.

Holy shit!

This sword has a spirit!

Sword Demon?

Subconsciously, Su Yie wanted to throw away the Zhou Wu Sword, but it clung to his palm, making it impossible for him to shake it off.

"Aoow——"

Atop a mount of corpses behind him, a giant wolf howled at the sky, turned tail, and dashed away after its cry.

Other Demon Beasts also fled, and those with developed spiritual wisdom even spoke human language.

"The great king is dead!"

"Run for it!"

"It's over! The great king is dead! We don't escape now, we'll die too!"

"How is this possible!"

And like that, the Demon Beast army retreated like the tide.

Everyone in the city watching the live broadcast held their breath—what was going on?

The Demon Beast army is retreating?

Tan Quanming and others were extremely tense as they hadn't seen the footage of the Zhou Wu Sword decapitating the Black Scaled King, so they couldn't confirm the situation—what if Su Yie had died?

At that moment, Su Yie suddenly climbed atop the tallest mound of corpses, causing the live broadcast camera to focus on him.

"Zoom in the camera!"

Tan Quanming quickly instructed, the staff nodded, and the live broadcast began zooming in on Su Yie.

Under the sunlight, Su Yie, drenched in blood and holding the Zhou Wu Sword high, his muscles gleaming with a metallic luster, presented a wild and bloodthirsty air.

"The Black Scaled King has been slain by me!"

Su Yie mustered all his demonic power and roared towards Xiwan City, his voice hoarse with exhaustion as he vented his fury!

His voice echoed over Xiwan City for a long time, exuding imposing dominance!

Silence!

The whole city fell silent, but within seconds, euphoric cheers erupted.

"We've won!"

"My God! Su Yie has won!"

"Holy crap! The Black Scaled King is killed!"

"Fuck! Is Su Yie a god? So powerful!"

"From now on, Su Yie is my faith!"

Everyone got excited, and people near the city's edge rushed toward the battlefield like a tidal wave, Tan Quanming included, running over excitedly.

The crisis of Xiwan City had been lifted.

The blazing sun shone down on the barren battlefield strewn with Demon Beast corpses, rivers of blood flowing, and Su Yie stood atop the mound of corpses like a War God.

This scene was captured in screenshots by many within the city.

"Su Yie! Su Yie! Su Yie..."

At that moment, chants rang out within Xiwan City, with everyone stepping out of their homes and shouting Su Yie's name in the streets. The voices of hundreds of thousands merging together was a magnificent sight, touching hearts and shaking the clouds in The Sky Dome.

Su Yie's name echoed between heaven and earth, as though it were the name of a deity.

At this point, Nan Xiaopao finally reached the edge of the city, following the crowd as she ran toward the battlefield, her face alight with joy as tears of happiness streamed from the corners of her eyes.

No matter the tens of thousands of Demon Beasts!

No matter how invincible the Demon King!

With Su Yie alone, the Demon King was slain, the Demon Army retreated!
