Master of the Demon Emperor

Chapter 189 Certain Death Situation

"Little brother, one must not act recklessly upon arriving in Xianyang, one should watch quietly for changes," the man in plain clothes reminded, his face bearing the look of worry as if he carried the troubles of the world.

The dark-skinned giant grinned sheepishly and scratched his head, but the fierceness in his eyes was unmistakable.

The man in the green robe caressed his long beard and haughtily said, "Xianyang is nothing special."

Compared to the fierce dark-skinned giant, an air of arrogance surrounded him, apparent to anyone at first glance.

These three men hailed from a certain dynasty, all hidden among the market crowds. They happened across each other, sparred, and after mutual admiration, they formed a sworn brotherhood in the Peach Garden.

The man in plain clothes was named Liu Xuan, the dark-skinned giant was Zhang Fei, and the man in the green robe was Guan Wu.

Guan Wu was indeed the Sacred Blade of the Azure Dragon whom Su Yie had seen listed in the invitation!

Zhang Fei and Guan Wu had both once dominated their respective domains before they chose to live in seclusion for their own reasons.

Liu Xuan was an orphan adopted by a woodcutter's family and later survived a massacre in his village by Great Qin. When he was on the brink of death, a cultivator saved him, planting the seeds of vengeance in his heart.

This time, he was here for revenge!

The Emperor of Qin waged wars everywhere in his quest to unite the world under his rule, his cruelty bringing about the deaths and displacement of countless citizens, leading to widespread resentment. However, as Great Qin was too powerful, the people could only endure in silence.

Great Qin also bore another title.

The Tyrannical Qin!

This was why people scoffed at him as the emperor of the Human Clan.

Such a tyrant could not possibly be the emperor of the entire Human Clan!

This time, Liu Xuan had come to exact his vengeance!

During the Three Dynasties' Saint Competition, Great Qin's focus would be on the competition; it was a time of vulnerability for Xianyang, and it was also when the Emperor of Qin would appear, presenting a rare opportunity.

Liu Xuan, Zhang Fei, and Guan Wu followed the crowd into the city, where entry into Xianyang required payment of Spirit Stones and identity registration through spells, facilitating the tracking and apprehension of those who committed crimes.

The entry of the three men did not catch the attention of the powerhouses in Xianyang as, with the Three Dynasties' Saint Competition approaching, many powerful figures were arriving daily.

Apart from princes of the Three Dynasties, geniuses from prestigious sects, renowned families could participate, including cultivators listed in the Heavenly Ranking List.

However, participants could bring Demon Clan subordinates, but they themselves could not be Demons.

This was so for two reasons: firstly, they did not want Human Clan resources to flow into the Demon Clan and secondly, they wished to foster the competitior's tactical skills.

They sought not just the purely powerful but individuals who were both strategic and strong!

In the Ancient Wilderness, surviving on mere cultivation talent was insufficient.

Noble Prince Shangxie dared not hide anything and explained thoroughly, "The location and rules of each Three Dynasties' Saint Competition vary to prevent participants from cheating. Today, my father informed me that the arena is in the land of Bailing and the Seven Dynasties, supposedly involving the Exotic People."

"I'm not clear on the specific rules, I only know this much."

Su Yie's heart sank.

All three Great Holy Dynasties setting their sights on Earthlings was definitely a disaster.

He had heard before that the Three Dynasties' Saint Competition was exceedingly brutal, inevitably leading to slaughter.

"Then I must return, let's put our agreement on hold."

Su Yie stood up and under the sunlight, displayed a body of perfect muscular contours, filled with a sense of power and beauty, yet not bulky.

Noble Prince Shangxie quickly said, "The Three Dynasties' Saint Competition will start in a few days, and by then a great power will teleport us there, you can't make it back in time now!"

Great Qin was so far from Bailing, it would take Su Yie months to return on his own.

Han Yuan suddenly appeared and said in a deep voice, "That's right, you can't leave. If you want to protect Bailing, you have to use the rules; otherwise, even you won't be able to stop the invasion of the Three Dynasties, let alone that of the entire Human Clan."

Su Yie took a deep breath, trying to calm his emotions.

A fire of anger was burning in his heart.

"You can only come with me now. I guarantee, in the name of the Prince of Great Qin, that I will not let you harm your subordinates, besides, the rules are not yet out."

Noble Prince Shangxie urged, unable to afford losing Su Yie, otherwise, in the Three Dynasties' Saint Competition, he would surely die.

Even if the Emperor of Qin loved him dearly, he would not be biased; in the Emperor's eyes, children were insignificant for he desired eternal dominion.

Su Yie looked at him and said coldly, "Give me the Immortal Sword now, whatever happens in the Three Dynasties' Saint Competition, I will ensure your survival."

Upon hearing this, Noble Prince Shangxie furrowed his brows.

If he did not agree, Su Yie might not accompany him, and then he would surely die.

But if he agreed, he would have to face the risk of Su Yie breaking their agreement.

He had only one choice before him.

"Fine!"

Noble Prince Shangxie gritted his teeth and immediately left to procure the Immortal Sword for Su Yie.

As he departed, Han Yuan was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed dramatically, he quickly closed his eyes, counted on his fingers, and muttered, "A fatal situation... Monsters and Demons are descending..."
