Master of the Demon Emperor

Chapter 58 Comparison of Realms

Su Yie turned his head and saw, a hundred meters away, a gaunt figure standing in front of a stone tower. It was the Black Raven Spirit, with a raven's head and a human's body, dressed in tiger pelt clothes, his gaze chilly and serpentine.

"Could it be him?"

It reminded Su Yie of the mysterious archer who had delivered the invitation last time.

The Crimson Flame Lion King turned his head as well and roared, "At the foot of the Demon Emperor, you dare to attempt an assassination on a guest?"

He was feeling bold now because the Demon Emperor valued Su Yie, which made him very audacious.

"You, worthy of the name 'Demon Lord,' are quite impressive. I acknowledge you. My name is Black Raven Archer, the Demon Emperor's top assassin. Just now, I was merely testing you. If you were my enemy, you would be dead," said the Black Raven Spirit.

Dead?

Su Yie smiled. If they had been outside, the Black Raven Archer would already be lying dead at his feet.

Nowadays, with his Heaven and Earth Boundless Carefree Steps improved, he could slay a Mystic Demon King as easily as slaughtering chickens and dogs, all within a hundred steps!

The Black Raven Archer's eyes hardened. He could sense the disdain in Su Yie's attitude, which made him uncomfortable.

But this was the Demon Emperor's Palace; he wouldn't dare to truly attack.

The reason he tested Su Yie was precisely that the Demon Emperor was very interested in the Demon Lord.

Having thought enough, he turned and walked away, leaving behind only his lonely, proud silhouette.

Su Yie also withdrew his gaze and continued to wait for Niu Wu to come out.

After a while, Niu Wu finally appeared, followed by two cultivators; they were elders from the orthodox Qingyi Sect.

One of them was Ye Zhonggang, who had visited Xiwan City the other day, and the other was an elderly man dressed in a cyan Taoist robe, with an immortal bearing, white hair, a youthful appearance, and emitting a subtle aura of authority.

Upon seeing Su Yie, Ye Zhonggang was slightly taken aback.

Since Qingyi Sect had taken Xiwan City under their wing, Earth's technologies had come into their view, and the elders had nearly all watched videos of Su Yie's fights, so they recognized him at a glance.

"The half-demon of Mystical City?"

The other old cultivator expressed his surprise. Upon hearing this, Niu Wu also looked at Su Yie unexpectedly.

Mystical City had descended from the sky, and the Land of Qiling was part of Bailing; he had heard of it but never expected the half-demon of Mystical City to be the current Demon Lord.

Su Yie didn't recognize them, so he ignored their stares.

Niu Wu approached him and said, "Come with me, the Demon Emperor wishes to see you."

Knowing that Su Yie was the half-demon of Mystical City, his gaze towards Su Yie changed, now slightly hostile.

After all, Su Yie had once slaughtered members of the Demon Clan for the sake of a city's people.

"Kid, Xiwan City is doing very well under our Qingyi Sect," Ye Zhonggang said as he passed by Su Yie, speaking to him telepathically.

Telepathy was something only the two of them could hear; no one else could.

Ye Zhonggang was expressing his goodwill, attempting to gain Su Yie's favor.

Qingyi Sect understood that although Su Yie was a half-demon, his heart was with the Human Clan, to the point of being willing to die for them. Such a half-demon naturally impressed them.

The Demon Emperor got straight to the point, causing Su Yie to be taken aback.

A contest between the same realms?

This strategy was indeed poisonous!

If the Human Clan were defeated in every realm, and the news spread, the morale of the Human Clan would undoubtedly plummet, while in contrast, the Demon Clan would become even more frenzied.

Su Yie subconsciously thought to refuse. It was not that he was overly confident, the Shape-Shifting Great Demon Realm corresponded to the Embryonic Breathing Realm, which was Mo Haosheng's realm. He could face a hundred without flinching.

If he participated, the Human Clan was destined to lose.

But how to refuse the Demon Emperor?

Seeing Su Yie's hesitation, the Demon Emperor spoke, "As long as you win, I'll reward you with ten thousand Third Grade Spirit Stones and arm your Demon Army with weapons."

Third Grade Spirit Stones!

Spirit Stones were, so to speak, the embodiment of condensed Spiritual Energy, useful for cultivation and as a universal currency, graded from one to nine in ascending order.

Each higher grade was worth ten times more than the previous one.

For example, one Second Grade Spirit Stone was equivalent to ten First Grade Spirit Stones, though sometimes the size of the spirit stone could change its value.

Su Yie was immediately tempted. Winning one match shouldn't be a problem, right?

After all, there were other realm contests, so his participation would not affect the overall situation.

Yes, he could only comfort himself this way.

There was no helping it, the temptation was too great!

Yaojian Mountain was too poor!

"Alright!"

Su Yie agreed promptly and decisively.

Afterwards, the Demon Emperor mentioned a few more details regarding the banquet between the two clans. He didn't bring up the matter of winning Su Yie over, as if Su Yie were already one of his subordinates.

After their talk, Su Yie walked out of the Demon Emperor's Palace.

The Crimson Flame Lion King quickly approached to inquire. When he learned of the Demon Emperor's assignment, he became ecstatic.

"Who among the Embryonic Breathing Realm cultivators can be your match? It's in the bag!"

The Crimson Flame Lion King was so excited he nearly drooled, ten thousand Third Grade Spirit Stones!

Su Yie gave a slight smile, then continued walking forward.

The current priority was to find a place to stay, given that the banquet between the two clans would last for a while.

"What brotherhood is this, not even offering me a place to stay!"

Su Yie muttered to himself inwardly, his opinion of Niu Wu dropping even lower.

Indeed, it was superficial fraternity, the kinship of plastic!
