Master of the Demon Emperor

Jiaye Temple.

The barren desert ended here, with the Jiaye Temple surrounded by continuous mountains, merging with the sky to form an endless, stunning scroll of beauty.

Su Yie, Xiang Yu, and Zhao Rulong arrived at the foot of Jiaye Temple's mountain, and before he could speak, Ling Sang's voice transmitted down to them.

"Come up."

Upon hearing this, the three of them walked up the stone steps.

Along the way, Su Yie was taking in the scenery—it was his first time stepping through the gates of Jiaye Temple and into the mountain.

A refreshing fragrance drifted down from the mountain, similar to the scent of camellia, soothing and uplifting to the spirit.

Xiang Yu was also looking around at Jiaye Temple, full of curiosity about the legendary holy place.

Zhao Rulong, on the other hand, was quite calm, clearly not his first visit to Jiaye Temple.

"Jiaye Temple has a lineage that spans thousands of years, with a history even more ancient than the Seven Dynasties. Whenever the Seven Dynasties face peril, Jiaye Temple sends out holy monks to offer their aid and heal the world."

As they walked, Xiang Yu recalled this fact.

Unfortunately, Su Yie and Zhao Rulong weren't listening, as both were acquainted with the abbot and thus didn't have as much awe for Jiaye Temple.

The nuns they passed along the way cast wary and scrutinizing glances at them, on guard against them causing any trouble.

Soon, they saw Ling Sang; she was standing at the top of the stone steps waiting for them.

"Where's Xiao Pao?"

Su Yie asked, surprised that Nan Xiaopao hadn't come to meet him, but he could feel her presence within the temple, so he wasn't worried.

"She is in closed-door cultivation, attempting a breakthrough. Are you in a rush?"

Ling Sang smiled as she spoke, her smile filled with strangeness, making Su Yie feel slightly embarrassed as he shook his head, "I am not in a rush."

Ling Sang gestured with her hand, and a nun flew over, seemingly treading on air.

"Take this benefactor down and treat her well."

Ling Sang said, pointing at Xiang Yu; she had more to discuss with Su Yie and Zhao Rulong, and it was better for Xiang Yu to know less.

After seeing Su Yie nod, Xiang Yu then followed the nun away.

Under Ling Sang's leadership, Su Yie and the other made their way to a courtyard.

The three of them sat around a stone table, with Zhao Rulong being the first to clasp his hands together and say, "Thank you for the assistance, holy monk."

Despite Zhao Rulong being over two thousand years old, he was still considered a junior in front of Ling Sang.

Ling Sang gently shook her head and said, "It was just a helping hand; not worth mentioning, especially since I have a connection with your ancestors."

A connection?

Su Yie raised an eyebrow, noticing Ling Sang's gaze flickering.

Curiosity blazed within him.

"Is the Divine Physique Hall still after you?"

Ling Sang changed the subject, and with her age and cultivation, it was normal for her to be aware of the Divine Physique Hall's existence.

Zhao Rulong nodded, helplessly saying, "My end is near, and I don't have long to live. The most important thing is His Majesty; I am now thinking about how to help His Majesty get out of the entanglements with the Divine Physique Hall."

Ling Sang smiled and said, "You don't need to worry. Your emperor has already gained a supreme opportunity. The Divine Physique Hall faces trouble."

She was very aware of the powerful forces hidden within Emperor Su's Sect.

Most critically, Emperor Su's Sect was still expanding, inevitably surpassing the Divine Physique Hall.

"Really?" Zhao Rulong asked with surprise and joy.

"Mhm, I can attest to that." Su Yie nodded, exciting Zhao Rulong instantly.

Wuu You is no trouble; he could rest easy now.

Su Yie and Ling Sang exchanged knowing smiles, full of concealed profundities.

"How has Xiao Pao been recently?"

Su Yie then asked, no longer worried about Nan Xiaopao. Ling Sang didn't seem like a villain, and since he could erase her existence at any time, he felt very at ease about Nan Xiaopao being with her.

"A prodigy by nature, although not as fast as you in breaking through, she has already advanced to the stage of 'embrace the elixir, enter the law.'"

Ling Sang answered, unable to help but express her admiration.

In just a few short months, Su Yie seemed to have undergone a complete transformation—not just in vitality but also in cultivation.

Even from dozens of miles away, she could sense the earth-shattering demon Qi that Su Yie possessed.

```

The talent that even the Sacred Body of Qiling couldn't surpass, Su Yie's constitution is definitely not simple.

Su Yie smiled and said, "It seems she is working very hard."

Afterward, he looked toward Zhao Rulong and said, "How about it, knowing that your sovereign is safe, why not follow me? There will always be a chance to encounter Wuu You in the future. If you go looking for Wuu You alone, you may die on the way."

Hearing this, Zhao Rulong hesitated.

Ling Sang said, "You can trust him, he, myself, and your sovereign are all part of the same force."

Putting aside Su Yie's half-demon identity, she had immense admiration for him.

Someone willing to fight to the death for a city deserved respect, not to mention that in just a few months, Su Yie had dominated the Land of the Hundred Ridges, annihilated the Western Buddha Dynasty, and was overwhelmingly powerful. No matter how you looked at it, he was a Heavenly Pride, and perhaps even one that would suppress an era.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Rulong could only nod, as he still trusted Ling Sang a great deal.

Su Yie closed his eyes, preparing to notify Wuu You.

Within Emperor Su's Sect.

Su Yie: Zhao Rulong has been rescued. We are at Jiaye Temple. You must thank Abbot Ling Sang.

Wuu You: Thank you, Demon Lord, and thank you, Abbot Ling Sang. In the future, I will definitely repay you both.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Li Huahun: Tang Qingtian! I'm about to reach Sword Sect, prepare to come out and die!

Empress of the Great Zhou: Really going to storm Sword Sect?

Xiahou Jinxuan: Well done!

Shangguan Wuji: Brother Li is mighty!

Tang Qingtian: Come on! Come to the foot of the mountain, whoever chickens out is a sissy!

Ren Wokuang: Big brother! Kill him!

…

Su Yie's mouth twitched, not expecting Li Huahun to have arrived at Sword Sect so quickly.

Ling Sang also noticed the conversation within Emperor Su's Sect and shook her head with a smile, chanting, "Amitabha."

"What's wrong?"

Zhao Rulong asked in confusion.

Ling Sang dared not say as Emperor Su only allowed them to reveal the name of Emperor Su's Sect, not to leak any other information.

Su Yie said with a smile, "It's nothing."

Then he asked Ling Sang about the matters of the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili. After all, Ling Sang was once a disciple of the Malevolent Matriarch, and she might know the matriarch's weaknesses.

It would be dreadful if the Malevolent Matriarch were to come back one day.

It wasn't until dusk that the three left.

Arriving at their lodging, Xiang Yu had been waiting for a long time, so upon seeing Su Yie, she immediately ran over happily.

"My lord."

Xiang Yu called out charmingly. She had already learned about Nan Xiaopao's situation, being regarded as an unparalleled talent by Jiaye Temple, which made her realize she couldn't compete with Nan Xiaopao and would try her best to show her good side so Nan Xiaopao wouldn't look down on her.

"Go and rest well. Tomorrow, we will return to Yaojian Mountain."

Su Yie nodded and said, Ling Sang had said that Nan Xiaopao would not exit her retreat for several months, and she promised that once Nan Xiaopao successfully broke through, she would let her go find him, rest for a month, and then come back for training.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu was overjoyed and turned to walk toward her room.

Just then, the Emperor Su's Sect exploded into chaos.

Tang Qingtian: I, Tang Qingtian, swear here and now, Li Huahun is my grandpa, and I am Li Huahun's grandson!

Li Huahun: I don't have a grandson like you.

Tang Qingtian: Grandpa Li, it was my ignorance that caused me to offend you before, I looked down on a god with dog eyes, no, I looked down on a deity with dog eyes.

Ren Wokuang: Do you still dare to act wildly?

Tang Qingtian: I was wrong.

Empress of the Great Zhou: Tsk, tsk, you guys are really interesting.

Shangguan Wuji: Hahahaha, he must have been scared off!

Black Tiger Emperor: Now, who is the little overlord of Emperor Su's Sect?

Tang Qingtian: Brothers, I was really wrong, I've chickened out, I beg for mercy...
