Master of the Demon Emperor

"The strongest swordsmanship? What is it called?"

Su Yie hurriedly asked, his face showing anticipation.

This was Sword Saint Xia Tianyi!

The one who dared challenge Overlord Luo Fu!

At the same time, he was curious about why Xia Tianyi was here.

He had just challenged Overlord Luo Fu and seemed completely unharmed.

Xia Tianyi looked up at the sky and said softly, "This swordsmanship, I am still creating it, and currently, there are only two moves."

"Which two moves?" Su Yie asked.

"All Under Heaven Facing East!"

"Twin Sword Sovereigns!"

Xia Tianyi said excitedly, these two moves were his greatest pride so far.

Su Yie was thrilled and asked, "Teach me quickly!"

Just by hearing the names, he knew these two moves were extraordinary.

"All Under Heaven Facing East is manageable, but Twin Sword Sovereigns requires two swords. Do you have them?"

Xia Tianyi asked, sizing up Su Yie.

Swordsmen who wield two-handed swords are rare because most swordsmen prefer the elegance of traveling the world with a single sword through all weathers.

Upon hearing this, Su Yie took out the Heartbreaking Sword from his left hand.

Seeing his two-handed sword stance, Xia Tianyi's eyes brightened, and he asked, "Can you use the two-handed sword?"

Su Yie nodded and said calmly, "I have some understanding."

He initially practiced the two-handed sword because he had seen Xia Tianyi's divine shadow wielding a pair of swords.

Of course, he couldn't say that!

Lest Xia Tianyi become arrogant!

"First absorb the flower from earlier. Using the spiritual energy, I will then teach you!"

Xia Tianyi directly commanded, eager to teach Su Yie.

This was a piece of fine jade that he needed to carve well.

Hearing this, Su Yie took out the Purple Flower, sat cross-legged, and began to absorb its spiritual energy using the Demon Emperor's Divine Skill.

The Crimson Flame Lion King felt envious. Such spiritual energy was refreshing even to stand beside; how exhilarating it must be to absorb?

Seeing Su Yie seriously absorbing the Purple Flower, Xia Tianyi also leaped to the top of a small hill to meditate and rest.

Within Emperor Su's Sect.

Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: I've come across the Monster Lord, a true natural talent in swordsmanship.

Elder Lord Qi Yang: That kid's too freakish, he's surpassed even me.

Li Zuxuan: Monster Lord? If that's the case, I must meet him.

Overlord Luo Fu: Oh? You're interested in my Demon Clan's genius? The Bailing Territory is my domain!

Demon Lord Qing Yan: The Yaojian Mountain Monster Lord, eh? Interesting!

...

With just one sentence from Xia Tianyi, every member of Emperor Su's Sect became interested in Su Yie.

Of course, except for Li Huahun, who had always been lurking.

Su Yie also saw this, his mouth twitched slightly.

He couldn't reveal that he was aware of Emperor Su's Sect's chat, so he pretended not to see it.

Time flew swiftly.

The next day, the sun rose in the east.

The Purple Flower in Su Yie's hands had wilted, his skin flushed, sweat drenched his back, and his body seemed ready to explode at any moment.

Xia Tianyi opened his eyes, looked down at him and said, "Take up your sword, and practice with me!"

After speaking, he leapt, coming to a desolate expanse in front.

Seeing this, Su Yie flipped his hands to take out the Zhou Wu Sword and the Heartbreaking Sword, the Heartbreaking Sword in his left hand and the Zhou Wu Sword in his right, and ran towards Xia Tianyi.

The napping Crimson Flame Lion King was woken up by the noise. He opened his eyes and looked towards Su Yie and Xia Tianyi, curious to see how the Sword Saint taught.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Once Su Yie reached Xia Tianyi, Xia Tianyi raised his hands, and the twin swords automatically unsheathed from his waist.

The sound of the swords unsheathing was crisp and gave one goosebumps.

The twin swords circled in the air several times, then flew back into Xia Tianyi's hands.

Handsome!

Su Yie felt it was a feast for the eyes, truly worthy of a Sword Saint.

"Follow my sword. I'll start slowly, but after we practice five times, I'll increase the speed of the sword, faster each time, to see how far you can keep up,"

Xia Tianyi glanced at Su Yie and said.

It was both a teaching and a test!

Su Yie nodded, took a deep breath, gathered his energy, and could not lose face in front of Xia Tianyi.

Soon, Xia Tianyi began to wield his sword.

Su Yie stood beside him, three meters apart, glancing at Xia Tianyi from the corner of his eye.

Having mastered the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword, he was no novice in swordsmanship; he could understand Xia Tianyi's next move as soon as he made a move.

Initially, the two of them swung their swords as if practicing Tai Chi—very slowly.

Though slow, it felt rhythmical.

The Crimson Flame Lion King lay on the ground, watching quietly.

After practicing once, Su Yie realized that this swordsmanship was very similar to the foundational moves of the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword, presumably evolved from the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword by All Under Heaven Facing East and the Twin Sword Sovereigns.

By the second time, he no longer needed to watch Xia Tianyi out of the corner of his eye, and the flush on his body also faded significantly.

"Not bad!"

Xia Tianyi inwardly praised, though he remained outwardly calm.

After five rounds, Xia Tianyi suddenly increased the speed of his sword.

Su Yie sped up as well, as the Spiritual Power of the Purple Flower flowed through his body, making him feel a surge of power.

With each subsequent round, Xia Tianyi's sword speed increased, and his movements grew larger.

The two began to practice in sync on the barren land, their sword speed as fast as a thunderclap, creating a howling wind that rendered the atmosphere solemn.

The Crimson Flame Lion King's eyes grew wider and wider.

Had Su Yie practiced this swordsmanship before?

From his perspective, the coordination between Su Yie and Xia Tianyi was perfect, each move exactly the same, even their speeds were identical.

"My sword speaks one word, 'fast'!"

Xia Tianyi's voice reached Su Yie's ears, enlightening him further.

When they had practiced fifty times, Su Yie's speed reached its limit, the Spiritual Power of the Purple Flower merged into his sinews, greatly enhancing his demonic power.

A strong wind picked up, carrying sand and rocks along.

A trace of a smile appeared on Xia Tianyi's face, his admiration for Su Yie growing.

And so, Su Yie practiced swords daily with Xia Tianyi.

It seemed monotonous, but with every round of Xia Tianyi's swordsmanship, he gained something new.

...

Yaojian Mountain.

The entire grassland was filled with the figures of monsters, and as the influence of Yaojian Mountain grew, three peaks could no longer accommodate so many monsters.

Thus, the Demon Kings decided to build houses on the grassland for the lower-tier monsters to reside in.

One day, the Demon Kings gathered in a wooden house.

The atmosphere was extremely tense.

Ying Tianchou, with his arms crossed in front of his chest, spoke, "The Evil Bat Demon intends to swallow Bailing Territory whole. It won't be long before we at Yaojian Mountain have to battle him. What are your thoughts?"

Chi Tianyi pondered, "The Evil Bat Demon is strong, commanding over ten Condensed Spirit Demon Kings. Bailing Territory is disorganized; without an alliance, we are all doomed."

The other Demon Kings nodded in agreement; they had already received news that the minions of the Evil Bat Demon were spotted around the mountains on the edge of Bailing Territory, their approach fierce and aggressive.

"Even so, who in Bailing Territory can face the Evil Bat Demon?"

Wild Elephant Kui hesitated; before, they had the Demon Emperor to rely on, but now?

Although the Demon Emperor died at the foot of Yaojian Mountain, it was not by Su Yie's hand but by a group of mysterious black shadows.

Now, with Su Yie away, they naturally could not expect help from those shadows.

"Let's hold the fort. The Monster Lord should be coming back soon,"

Luo Zhenhai said nonchalantly, unaware that Su Yie was practicing swords with his idol.

Beyond that, there was no other option.

They dared not take the initiative to attack.

"Report—The Evil Bat Demon has sent a letter through his minions!"

Just then, a monkey demon ran in from outside, holding a scroll of bark in his hand.
