Master of the Demon Emperor

Chapter 296 Yue Qinglong Lends a Hand [Fourth Update]

About the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the tremors within the Imperial Sea Palace ceased, and the internal strife of Emperor Su's Sect also came to an end.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was very curious about which of them was the strongest.

Although it was only for the duration of an incense stick's burning, he had previously felt a powerful pressure he had never felt before, almost an invincible oppression.

He now believed Su Yie's words that the main goal of Emperor Su's Sect lay beyond the heavens.

Looking across the Ancient Wilderness, he felt that probably only that individual from Immortal Scorching Ridge could compare to these strong members of Emperor Su's Sect.

Of course, his knowledge of the Ancient Wilderness was not extensive.

Beyond the Eastern Lands and the Endless Ocean, there were many other places in the Ancient Wilderness.

Su Yie, on the other hand, wore a smile, his expression seemingly saying, "Just as I thought."

Inside Emperor Su's Sect.

Yue Qinglong: The head of the Deep Sea Ferocious Emperor has been handed over.

Announcement from Emperor Su's Sect: Congratulations to Yue Qinglong for completing the bounty mission!

Supreme Dragon Shaking: I am convinced, both in heart and in speech.

Sea Emperor: Senior Yue's capability is beyond us.

God of Slaughter Gong Sunqi: That impressive?

God of Thieves Mo Qilin: Could it be that Senior Yue is truly an Immortal God? It feels like bullying us is as easy as bullying younger brothers.

Yue Qinglong: I am flattered. Your journey continues on My Virtual Library Empire

Celestial Sovereign of the Firmament: Bullying mortals? Aren't you ashamed?

…

Yue Qinglong won the reward with ease.

This guy didn't choose immediately, he probably wanted the Divine Shadow.

It seems this old fellow has many enemies; otherwise, he would probably choose the Sect Teaching.

Staring at the head of the Deep Sea Ferocious Emperor inside the Repository of the Dao, Su Yie sneered to himself, thinking about finding an opportunity to toss it away, lest it stink up the Repository.

Su Yie turned around and looked towards the horizon, saying, "Let's go, follow me to the Imperial Palace."

The Imperial Palace!

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's eyes lit up. Di Jun had mentioned the Imperial Palace to him, and the treasures within it were the true essence of the Imperial Sea Palace.

The two demons immediately flew off in one direction.

Su Yie used the Art of Riding the Clouds and Commanding the Mist to make the journey less arduous for Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

No sooner had they flown out a short distance than Yue Qinglong suddenly appeared above the Demon Cloud.

"Brother Su, let this old man accompany you," Yue Qinglong said with a laugh, startling Eastern Emperor Taiyi so much that he shivered.

How had this fellow arrived?

He hadn't noticed him at all.

Su Yie looked at Yue Qinglong and asked calmly, "Senior Yue, could it be that you have taken an interest in my talent that surpasses all others?"

There is no such thing as love without reason in this world.

Could it be that Yue Qinglong was interested in the Imperial Palace?

Hearing Su Yie's words, Eastern Emperor Taiyi couldn't help but roll his eyes as if to say, could you be any more shameless?

Yue Qinglong nodded and laughed, "This old man is very interested in you, the Demon Star. I always feel that your emergence has been given an extraordinary significance."

Su Yie's lips curved slightly upward, appreciating the old fellow's flattering words, which brought him comfort.

"Let's cut to the chase. Inside the Imperial Sea Palace, what do you want?" Su Yie shook his head and asked, as if Yue Qinglong wanted to harm him, why would he beat around the bush?

Furthermore, Su Yie had observed Yue Qinglong for a long time; this old man had always behaved gently within Emperor Su's Sect and never engaged in conflicts with others, which didn't seem like a disguise.

"Although the Ancient Desolation Supreme Emperor is strong, he was not considered the strongest in the Ancient Wilderness. I do not fancy these little things. I merely wish to aid you and establish a good connection," Yue Qinglong said, stroking his beard, assuming an otherworldly demeanor.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was impressed and sincerely convinced.

Indeed, wherever Su Yie went, there were always benefactors waiting.

If he possessed such luck, the Golden Crow Divine Race would have unified the Eastern Lands long ago.

"Have you calculated where the Imperial Palace is?" Su Yie asked, struggling to contain his excitement.

"Fly in that direction," Yue Qinglong pointed out.

Yue Qinglong smiled and pointed to the left, saying, "That way," and Su Yie immediately directed the Demon Cloud to change course.

And so, Su Yie and his two companions made their way towards the Imperial Palace.

Supreme Dragon Shaking, Flame Prison Demoness, and the others were very disappointed. After all their efforts, they had gained nothing, and bitter feelings filled their hearts.

As a result, at the suggestion of Demon Wolf Star, they decided to raid the Imperial Sea Palace.

The Sea Emperor was panicking; if the Imperial Sea Palace were looted, it would be a massive blow to the Endless Ocean.

But he couldn't stop it.

In the end, he could only choose to join the raiding party, saving what little he could.

Outside.

Di Jun was being besieged by a million beings. He held the Hetu and Luoshu Diagrams in his hands, a Jade Book with many floating glowing characters of profound mystery.

His mood was very gloomy.

He had planned to use the Hetu and Luoshu Diagrams to break the formation, but as soon as they appeared, they incited the beings to fight over them.

Not only that, but the dozens of guardian statues of the Imperial Sea Palace also turned their aim towards him.

Even though he was strong, facing a million beings and dozens of guardians, he couldn't cope.

Boom—

A blue light river rushed forth with a majestic momentum, as if it could shatter the Five Sacred Mountains, forcing Di Jun to evade.

At that moment, innumerable Flying Swords fell like a torrential downpour, shocking Di Jun into raising the Hetu and Luoshu Diagrams for defense.

Thirty guardians swung their hands at the same time, conjuring thirty giant spiritual palms from all directions to attack, seeking to blast Di Jun into a meat patty.

"Damn it..."

Di Jun gritted his teeth, his rage burning. Yet, no matter how furious he was, he couldn't slaughter all the enemies around him.

Among the beings present, there were over a million in the Heavenly Void Realm, a terrifying thought!

All of the Eastern Lands put together probably didn't have as many Heavenly Void Realm experts.

It was only he who could persist this far. Anyone else would have already been defeated.

In the end, Di Jun chose to swallow his anger and flee, but the beings didn't let him go.

"Kill him! We can't get into the Imperial Sea Palace anyway!"

"That must be a heavenly Treasure of Luck!"

"Finish him off!"

"He must be hiding many treasures on him!"

"We can't let him get away!"

The beings roared and chased after Di Jun, nearly making him spit blood in frustration.

Without the Sea Emperor's suppression, these beings were like wild horses without reins, unbridled and reckless.

...

Whoosh—

Su Yie and his companions rode the clouds, the sky turning a crimson red, eerily beautiful.

Beneath them was a vast, seemingly endless wilderness, a landscape of rolling, low-lying land with sparse vegetation and not even a river in sight.

In the distance stood a colossal palace, five hundred feet tall, towering amidst the heavens and the earth.

"Is that the Imperial Palace?"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi stared ahead, murmuring to himself, anticipation gleaming in his eyes.

Legends say that before the birth of the Human Clan, many strong beings emerged in the struggle among the myriad races of the Ancient Wilderness, including the Ancient Desolation Supreme Emperor.

The Ancient Desolation Supreme Emperor once suppressed an era, unrivaled in his time. Before the void shattered, he left behind his legacy palace.

After countless years, as the sea turned into mulberry fields, and the high mountains became the Endless Ocean, his palace too gained a new name, the Imperial Sea Palace.

For the Imperial Palace, Eastern Emperor Taiyi was filled with hope; whether he could survive or not depended on the treasures inside the palace.

"Stop right there! I never thought you'd be able to break through my seal!"

Just then, a mass of grey mist blocked Su Yie and his companions, surprising Su Yie and prompting him to halt the Demon Cloud.

"It's you! Tai Yi Huang!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi bit out, a hint of panic in his heart. He and Su Yie were no match for Tai Yi Huang; he just didn't know whether Yue Qinglong could contend with him.

Yue Qinglong squinted his eyes, sizing up Tai Yi Huang in the mist, deep in thought.

"You must not trespass. You shall be sealed by me for at least a hundred years!"

Tai Yi Huang said sternly. Under the cover of the mist, his expression appeared incredibly grim.
