Master of the Demon Emperor-Chapter 728 - The So-Called Getting Stronger
The atmosphere became fraught with tension as Xia Tianyi tensed up, ready to fight at any moment.
"How strange, why did you just make me feel a brief trance?" Shi Er spoke, eliciting a sense of alarm in Su Yie.
Could it be that his guess was correct?
Had he just seen Shi Er's future through his actions?
If that were true...
Su Yie's heart sank to the lowest depths.
Was he really expected to accompany such an evil demon?
Eager to slaughter the inhabitants of the Origin Plane, going so far as to battle the Polar Emperor in a blood-soaked conflict.
Nevertheless, considering the Polar Emperor's demonstrated combat prowess, it would likely be countless ages hence.
"Answer me."
Seeing Su Yie lost in thought, Shi Er couldn't help but speak up.
Returning to his senses, Su Yie said, "Perhaps it's because I am your Evil Emperor."
Upon hearing this, Shi Er associated his affinity for Su Yie's aura with their similar primordial essence.
With this thought, his fondness for Su Yie deepened once again.
He patted Su Yie's shoulder, "My Evil Emperor, tens of millions of Evil Soldiers are at your disposal from now on."
Xia Tianyi rolled his eyes. There were only three Evil Soldiers, and yet he bragged so grandiosely.
Su Yie inquired, "Where are we now?"
"This is the central time-space of the Endless Time-Space, which I call the Center of Infinity. All time-spaces revolve around the Center of Infinity. The walls of time-space here are incredibly durable, absolutely impenetrable by those two insignificant creatures," Shi Er answered, his tone somewhat conceited.
Looking at him, Su Yie sighed silently. freeweɓnovel.cøm
What had happened to make Shi Er turn so ferocious?
However, upon reflection, Shi Er was inherently brutal, having slain those creatures without so much as blinking an eye.
Shi Er was only ever good to him.
Even Xia Tianyi suffered greatly under Shi Er's torment.
"Now it's time to help you both become stronger."
Shi Er turned and spoke, and after finishing, he walked about ten meters away.
Su Yie and Xia Tianyi looked at him, waiting for his instructions.
How would Shi Er help them become stronger?
"Use all your strength and attack me," Shi Er commanded, his words instantly turning Xia Tianyi's face ashen.
Was this an invitation for a beating?
Su Yie, too, was taken aback.
He had been through too many of these 'strength enhancement' experiences.
First, the Tian Emperor, then Emperor Su and Qin Tianyun in his previous life.
Couldn't these powerful beings come up with a different method?
Before he had time to ponder further, Shi Er suddenly moved, crossing ten meters in one stride, and sent Xia Tianyi flying with a kick, his fearsome power causing Xia Tianyi to spit blood.
Faced with Shi Er's pre-emptive strike, Su Yie had no choice but to launch an attack, raising his hand to unleash the Nine Heavens Fate-Breaking Finger.
The blazing beam of the light strike hit Shi Er, disappearing without a trace, doing no damage whatsoever.
Then, Shi Er appeared suddenly behind Su Yie, kicking him in the back with a thunderous noise. Su Yie went tumbling away like a batted ball, crashing through a nearby meteorite.
Xia Tianyi, with swords in hand and an imposing aura, was unfortunate; before he could bring his swords down, Shi Er sent him flying again.
Propelled for millions of miles, Xia Tianyi crashed into a meteorite, blood spraying from his mouth.
His expression grim, he gritted his teeth and cursed, "Just as I thought, we're getting thrashed..."
How could such a fight make him stronger?
He hadn't even had a chance to use his divine skills!
Before he could reflect further, Su Yie was sent flying his way, pursued by Shi Er.
And so, the journey of Su Yie and Xia Tian's power enhancement began.
Facing Shi Er, Su Yie didn't deploy his full strength.
Somewhere deep inside, he had a premonition.
He and Shi Er were destined for a battle!
Needless to say, Su Yie couldn't afford to reveal all his cards.
He felt no shame in that.
He could tell that Shi Er cloaked his intention of helping them become stronger under a seemingly benevolent guise; in reality, he treated them as toys.
Look how joyfully he laughed.
Time flew by swiftly.
One year later.
Xia Xuanwu and Bai Luochen began to pursue Su Yie and the others separately.
In the rules set by Shi Er, there was the implication of competition; the slow would die, so naturally, they couldn't join forces.
...
Ancient Wilderness.
Myriad Demon Court, Demon Empress Palace.
Nan Xiaopao was lying by the small bed, while the Imp Emperor was deep in sleep.
Two figures appeared behind her.
They were none other than the Heavenly Emperor and the woman in the plain dress.
The woman in the plain dress reached out and touched Nan Xiaopao's hair, her face revealing a doting smile as she said, "This child is still a child, and yet, she has become a mother."
The Heavenly Emperor huffed, "What child? She simply hasn't grown up, just like Xiao Li."
The woman in the plain dress gave him a glare and said, "Look at my son, how devoted he is, unlike you with your myriad consorts."
The Heavenly Emperor said proudly, "That proves my charm is greater than his."
The woman in the plain dress chuckled without a hint of jealousy, a glint of love filling her eyes instead.
The Heavenly Emperor approached the small bed and looked down at the Imp Emperor.
"This little guy has a decent soul talent, stronger than my other grandchildren. He reminds me of Tian Yun, although when Tian Yun was born, the commotion was not small."
The Heavenly Emperor nodded in admiration, his face taking on a nostalgic hue.
The woman in the plain dress walked to the other side of the small bed, her gaze on the Imp Emperor, her smile radiant.
She reached out to touch the Imp Emperor's cheek, eliciting a swat from the little one's hand.
The Heavenly Emperor laughed, asking, "Can he feel you?"
Nan Xiaopao hadn't even noticed their presence, but the Imp Emperor could.
The woman in the plain dress said smugly, "Of course, would the son of my son be anything less?"
The Heavenly Emperor asked with a smile, "Why do you make it sound so complicated?"
The two of them looked at the Imp Emperor and began to reminisce about the past, talking about Qin Tianyun.
After a while.
The Heavenly Emperor waved his right hand towards the Imp Emperor, and a ball of light entered the Imp Emperor's body, saying, "I grant you the foundation of the Heavenly Emperor's lineage. The path ahead must still be taken by yourself, don't let me down."
After he finished speaking, he took the woman in the plain dress's hand, getting ready to turn and leave.
The woman in the plain dress suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, may I stay behind to accompany him?"
The Heavenly Emperor gave her a stern look and said, "Grandchildren have their own fortunes, and besides, what would you do by staying? Fight turf wars with your daughter-in-law?"
The woman in the plain dress pouted and said, "I am most magnanimous."
"That was the you of the past!"
With that, the Heavenly Emperor pulled the woman in the plain dress away.
The two of them quickly disappeared within the palace.
After they left.
Nan Xiaopao finally stretched languidly, rubbing her eyes and muttering, "Why did I sleep so heavily?"
Just as she was puzzled, the Imp Emperor suddenly began to cry loudly, wailing with tears.
Nan Xiaopao swiftly got up, picked him up, and started to comfort the little one.
Elsewhere.
At the edge of Hongmeng.
Space tore apart, and figures stepped out one after another.
At the lead was none other than Shi Dutian!
Previously, Tai Yi Hundun had asked his doppelganger to destroy Emperor Su's Sect, forcing Emperor Su's Sect to flee in all directions, eventually leading to the doppelganger's demise.
This time, Shi Dutian himself had descended!
He led ten thousand warriors of the Origin Divine Clan, each exuding a powerful aura.
His face twisted into a vicious smile as he said, "Emperor Su's Sect's Su Yie? Thanks to you for driving away the four Hongmeng Divine Spirits, now it's your turn to die!"
When he learned that Hongmeng Great Emperor, Tai Yi Hundun, Ultimate Emperor of the Ninth Pole, and First Emperor of the Nine Palaces had all been driven away by Su Yie, he was ecstatic!
Especially the Hongmeng Great Emperor!
The existence that had been a thorn in the side of the Origin Divine Clan was finally gone!
