After Su Yi left, the disciples of the Luoshui Sect continued with the Spirit Root examination, yet the atmosphere on the training ground was eerily strange, a shadow cast over everyone's heart.
"What if Su Yi is a Demon, will he go berserk?"
They had all witnessed Su Yi's strength, incredibly invincible; if angered, no one could stand in his way.
Mo Haosheng was tending to his wounds alone in a corner, his eyes fierce and venomous, cursing inwardly, "Damn it… I must have my revenge!"
Of course, it was merely wishful thinking, as he wouldn't dare act arrogantly in front of Su Yi. He planned to report back to his sect once he returned and seek his sect's power to slay this Demon then.
Elsewhere, Su Yi and another were walking through the campus.
Nan Xiaopao was very excited, constantly glancing at Su Yi, stars in her eyes.
Su Yi took out two bottles of water from the Repository of the Dao, one for Nan Xiaopao, and one for himself, which only increased Nan Xiaopao's excitement. What kind of sorcery was this?
After a while, Nan Xiaopao couldn't help but ask, "Does this count as a romance between different clans?"
Pfft—
As he was drinking water, Su Yi almost choked to death, a mouthful spraying out.
He responded with slight irritation, "What are you thinking! I am Human, okay? I just cultivated Sorcery!"
He also understood the consequences of walking the Demon Path, but back then he had no other options. The chance to have a powerful Cultivation Technique took precedence over everything else, survival being the most urgent.
Nan Xiaopao suddenly realized and then asked worriedly, "Aren't you afraid you might become possessed by demons?"
"You're overthinking it."
Su Yi rolled his eyes and kept walking.
He harbored this concern too and intended to ask about it later.
Finally, they returned to Su Yi's dormitory, as Nan Xiaopao's female dormitory building had been destroyed and naturally, she couldn't go back.
After closing the door, Su Yi took out the Exquisite Robe and presented it to Nan Xiaopao.
The recent events had left him somewhat scared. He needed to provide Nan Xiaopao with protection, and since the Exquisite Robe was for women, it was useless for him to keep it.
"Wow—such a beautiful dress!"
Nan Xiaopao was overjoyed and immediately began to wear the Exquisite Robe.
Su Yi took out his phone, intending to inquire about Demon Cultivation in the Emperor Su's Sect and also to warn Elder Lord Qi Yang.
As soon as he turned on his phone, he was amused, another opportunity to invite members!
Please invite any one of the following beings to join Emperor Su's Sect!
Sword Saint Xia Tianyi!
Serpent King of Clear Jade!
Li Huahun!
Fang Tian Divine Fist!
Tang Qingtian!
...
There were more than twenty names, making Su Yi's head spin.
His gaze settled on the top name, Xia Tianyi, the Sword Saint—a title not lightly given. Not all of these names bore titles, possibly implying something special.
Having thought as much, Su Yi swiftly decided on Sword Saint Xia Tianyi.
The phone screen then shifted to the group chat of Emperor Su's Sect.
Emperor Su invited Sword Saint Xia Tianyi to join Emperor Su's Sect.
Black Tiger Emperor: F*ck! Xia Tianyi!
Demon Lord Qing Yan: The Sword Saint is here too? Tsk, I've got a rival now.
Wu Qingyao: Is it the Xia Tianyi who once slew the Dragon Veins and stormed the Mighty Tang alone?
Elder Lord Qi Yang: Eh? Xia Tianyi... Ssss—how is that possible!
All four members of the Emperor Su's Sect were shocked, causing Su Yi's phone to flood with messages.
Su Yi revealed a smile, it seems my judgment was right; this Xia Tianyi really has quite the presence.
Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: Hmm? What is this? Why are you inside my mind?
Black Tiger Emperor: Sword Saint, oh my heavens, it's truly the Sword Saint of the Human Clan!
Demon Lord Qing Yan: This place is Emperor Su's Sect, founded by Emperor Su. To join the sect, one must contribute resources, otherwise one will be exiled.
Elder Lord Qi Yang: Even the Sword Saint has come, Emperor Su's divine skills...
Wux Qingyao: The junior has long admired the great name of the Sword Saint. May I ask if the senior has ever heard of my Luoshui Sect?
Once Xia Tianyi spoke, the others followed, chattering nonstop, and even the usually aloof lurker Wux Qingyao could not maintain her usual indifference.
Without Su Yie speaking a word, they voluntarily explained the origins of Emperor Su's Sect, lavishly praising how strong Emperor Su was and the great potential of the sect, which made Su Yie laugh.
"What are you laughing at? Don't I look good in this?"
Nan Xiaopao reproached, and when Su Yie looked up, he was instantly stunned by her beauty.
Her silver hair by nature, after she put on the Exquisite Robe, she looked like a beauty who had stepped out of a painting, irresistibly charming, with every glance and smile enchanting the soul, like a fairy descending to earth, leaving Su Yie dumbstruck.
Nan Xiaopao was already beautiful, also considered the belle of White Bridge University, but she liked to cosplay and often wore makeup which actually diminished her beauty. Now, dressed in the vestment robe, she looked like a completely different person.
"Beautiful, very fitting for you."
Su Yie quickly snapped back to reality and complimented her, making Nan Xiaopao bloom with joy. She hurriedly walked to the balcony and admired herself in the large mirror mounted on the wall.
Just then, an ancient bark book appeared in the palm of Su Yie's hand, with four characters carved onto it.
Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword!
A book on swordsmanship!
Su Yie immediately rejoiced. The Zhou Wu Sword coupled with this sword technique would definitely make his combat power soar. He hurriedly picked up his phone, certain it was Xia Tianyi's sword technique.
Within Emperor Su's Sect.
Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: I submit the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword, hoping Emperor Su does not disdain it.
Black Tiger Emperor: Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword? Hiss— Are you truly willing to part with such swordsmanship?
Demon Lord Qing Yan: Interesting, the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword is said to be capable of slaying terrestrial demigods when mastered. I wonder if it's true.
Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: In my path of the sword, Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword is not considered top-tier, besides, how could I not offer a generous gift upon my first arrival?
Elder Lord Qi Yang: Impressive, Sword Saint.
The other members of Emperor Su's Sect were also surprised, which spoke to the extraordinariness of the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword, sparking great curiosity in Su Yie about this sword technique.
Su Yie began to speak, and he did not deliberately curry favor with Sword Saint Xia Tianyi.
Emperor Su: Elder Lord Qi Yang, are your subordinates preying on the people of Mystical City?
Elder Lord Qi Yang: Hmm? What of it? Are you, Emperor Su, interested in the Mystical City of the Land of Qiling?
Wux Qingyao: Hmph, the Demon Clan's cannibalism is intolerable by the Heavenly Dao!
Black Tiger Emperor: As if your Human Clan doesn't eat meat!
Elder Lord Qi Yang and Black Tiger Emperor started to target Wux Qingyao, pressuring her into resuming her silence.
The Su Yie in front of the phone, however, had flickering eyes, should he kill Elder Lord Qi Yang or not?
Elder Lord Qi Yang would definitely return with a vengeance.
Next time, he would not be so easy to deal with.
If he were to kill Elder Lord Qi Yang, the demons of the Land of Qiling would surely riot, putting their entire city in even greater danger.
Emperor Su: From now on, your subordinates must not harm the people of Mystical City. Furthermore, the young one who severely injured you today, you will help this Emperor cultivate him, and in the future, it will be noted as a great service on your part!
Elder Lord Qi Yang: What? Emperor Su... You saw everything? Are you in the Land of Qiling?
Emperor Su: No, but this Emperor's divine skills can traverse all heavens, seeking out all beings with potential. Your every move cannot be concealed from this Emperor. I hope you do not resort to trickery. Additionally, the existence of Emperor Su's Sect must not be publicized, otherwise, this Emperor will eradicate him directly!
With the utterance of Su Yie's words, Wux Qingyao, Elder Lord Qi Yang, Black Tiger Emperor, Demon Lord Qing Yan, and Xia Tianyi all felt a supreme psychic pressure emanating from their minds, making their souls tremble, their heads dizzy and almost causing them to faint.
Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: Such pressure... how is it possible? Emperor Su, how strong are you exactly?
Elder Lord Qi Yang: Alright, alright, I will absolutely prevent my subordinates from entering the city again! Also, I will take good care of that human youngster!
Demon Lord Qing Yan: In this era, no one else possesses such pressure...
Black Tiger Emperor: Sect Master! Don't do this, we are now your subordinates, please don't shake us to death...
