I Want to Be the Demon Emperor!

Soon, four cultivators arrived above the mountaintop, riding on a giant fan.

One of the men, sporting a goatee, looked down at Su Yi and asked, "Are you the half-demon who slew the Black Scale King?"

Su Yi narrowed his eyes; it seemed the death of the Black Scale King had spread, and he had become famous along with it.

"And what of it? Do you have business with me?"

Su Yi retorted, the condescending attitude of the group making him feel somewhat repulsed.

"You saved hundreds of thousands of people and can be considered a hero, which is why we wish to save you and pull you back from the path of the demon."

The female cultivator spoke, her face kind, making it difficult for anyone to harbor hostility toward her.

She paused for a moment before continuing, "We are the Four Elders of Great Wei. We can help you abolish your demonic arts and allow you to join our Great Wei, where you will be conferred the rank of Fourth-Rank General. Any cultivation resources you require will be provided by Great Wei."

Great Wei!

One of the Seven Dynasties!

Su Yi was stunned, never having expected that the group would hail from Great Wei.

Based on his understanding, Great Wei belonged to the middle tier among the Seven Dynasties, with many cultivation families and sects attached to it, dominating a region.

"Is that true?"

Su Yi hesitated. Great Wei had an excellent reputation among the human race; even when Wu Qingyao mentioned Great Wei, it was with praise, claiming that the current monarch of Great Wei was a peerless talent and that under his rule, Great Wei might one day surpass Fierce Tang.

The female cultivator nodded with a smile, "Naturally. Although the origin of the Strange City is unknown, you are all human, and our Great Wei naturally cares. We will soon raise an army to come and provide support; even the Black Leopard Emperor would not dare to go to war with our Great Wei."

Her words were filled with pride.

The other three elders were the same. As the Four Elders of Great Wei, they had been around since the founding of the dynasty and had witnessed everything it had gone through. Great Wei had been weak in the past, but since the new monarch ascended the throne, the dynasty had developed remarkably well, winning over many major immortal cultivation sects.

"How can I be certain that if I abandon my arts and start over, I will be stronger than I am now?"

Su Yi said cautiously, while simultaneously questioning their identities.

After all, he did not truly understand the Desolate Ancient world.

"May I examine you?"

The goateed cultivator landed in front of Su Yi and asked.

Su Yi hesitated for a moment before raising his right hand.

Choosing the demonic arts back then had been a matter of extreme urgency, and since he had just founded the Emperor Su Sect, it was difficult to demand other techniques.

For a human to cultivate as a demon would only lead to rejection by both races.

The goateed cultivator grabbed Su Yi's wrist, using his own spiritual power to probe Su Yi's bone structure.

Su Yi appeared calm, but in reality, he was prepared to fight at any moment; one cannot be too careful.

If the other party made any suspicious moves, he would strike them down with the power of thunder!

After absorbing over two hundred demon cores and continuing his cultivation, he had already reached the strength of one hundred and twenty dragons.

"Eh?"

The goateed cultivator suddenly frowned, and the other three elders gathered around.

"He has the Five Elements Severed Pulse Body!"

"What? That's impossible, isn't it? How could it be the Five Elements Severed Pulse Body?"

"Are you sure you aren't mistaken?"

"Don't scare us; this is not something to be careless about!"

The Four Elders of Great Wei seemed to have seen something unbelievable, taking turns grabbing Su Yi's wrist to check for themselves.

Seeing their expressions, Su Yi had a bad feeling.

"It's over... it really is the Five Elements Severed Pulse Body. Does that mean he cannot cultivate?"

The female cultivator among the Four Elders of Great Wei had an ugly expression, looking as if she had lost a precious treasure.

Cannot cultivate?

Upon hearing this, Su Yi nearly bristled.

I am clearly a genius, alright!

During this period, Su Yi's cultivation had progressed by leaps and bounds, and his self-confidence had been built up. Now, the Four Elders of Great Wei were telling him that his constitution prevented him from cultivating?

Are you guys kidding me?

Su Yi was speechless; I think it's just that your techniques are too lousy!

"Forget it, then he can only cultivate as a demon."

The goateed cultivator sighed. His eyes darted around, and he said, "So what if he is a half-demon? He can serve as our liaison between Great Wei and the demon race."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the other three elders lit up.

Their main purpose in coming here was to win Su Yi over.

Although Su Yi could not cultivate human techniques, cultivating as a demon was not necessarily a bad thing.

Great Wei has always been breaking conventions, so what would it matter to take in a half-demon?

As long as he is not allowed to appear before the common people, it would be fine.

Watching the Four Elders of Great Wei chat with increasing excitement, Su Yi could not help but interrupt: "Hey, hey, hey, I haven't agreed to go to Great Wei with you yet!"

He is a half-demon now; going to the lands of the human race is simply courting death!

Even if the Four Elders of Great Wei protected him, he would still face all kinds of ostracization.

Hearing this, the Four Elders of Great Wei looked at him in unison.

The female cultivator said earnestly: "You killed the Black Scale King, and the Black Leopard Emperor will not let you go. Only by defecting to Great Wei can you survive. The other six dynasties are incredibly hateful toward the Demon Race; if you encounter them, you will only be hunted down."

Su Yi curled his lip slightly.

What does Great Wei amount to?

Are they as powerful as my Emperor Su Sect?

Seeing that Su Yi remained unmoved, the expressions of the Four Elders of Great Wei turned somewhat ugly.

Although they admired Su Yi for fighting hundreds of thousands of demon troops alone, Su Yi was a demon after all. They were offering him a way out, yet Su Yi actually refused?

For a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat strange.

Su Yi flipped his hand to take out the Zhouwu Sword, preparing for battle.

As soon as the Zhouwu Sword appeared, the Four Elders of Great Wei widened their eyes instantly.

"The... the Zhouwu Sword!"

The goat-bearded cultivator said with a trembling voice, and the four elders retreated rapidly, putting distance between themselves and Su Yi.

They looked at the Zhouwu Sword as if they were looking at a plague god.

"The Four Elders of Great Wei? Interesting. Back then, the first monarch of their Great Wei wanted to subdue me, but he was bitten back by me."

At this moment, the voice of the sword spirit Feng Long rang out in Su Yi's mind.

Su Yi raised an eyebrow; there was such a backstory?

Thinking of this, Su Yi deliberately put on a cold face and said: "You should leave. My sword is very fond of the blood of Great Wei. You wouldn't want to test its edge, would you?"

Hearing this, the faces of the Four Elders of Great Wei turned livid.

Being threatened by Su Yi like this naturally made them angry, but they were also wary of the Zhouwu Sword.

"Su Yi, one last piece of advice. Next, the ruler of the Western Buddha Dynasty will send a large army. They hate demons the most. You had better think clearly, or leave this place, otherwise, you will regret it."

The only female cultivator among the Four Elders of Great Wei spoke. After saying this, they turned and flew toward Xiwan City.

Western Buddha Dynasty?

Su Yi frowned, falling into deep thought.

Two of the seven human dynasties have already set their sights on Xiwan City. For someone like him who cultivates as a demon, this is not good.

"No! I cannot sit and wait for death!"

Su Yi's eyes flickered. After witnessing the Black Scale King and Old Lord Qiyang, he had developed an ambition.

Now that the Four Elders of Great Wei had discovered he was a Five Elements Severed Pulse Body, this ambition began to swell.

He wants to be a Demon King!

An unparalleled, peerless Great Demon King!

No!

Demon King lacks style!

If I'm going to be one, I'll be a Demon Emperor!

Thinking of this, Su Yi set off immediately.

It just so happens that his demon cores are used up. Compared to absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, the cultivation speed of absorbing demon cores is much faster!

His figure was extremely fast as he ran in the opposite direction of Xiwan City, soon disappearing into the depths of the mountain forest.

On the other side, a hundred miles away, on Laojun Mountain.

Old Lord Qiyang stood at the edge of the cliff, his goat face clouded with gloom.

"The Four Elders of Great Wei have also arrived. It seems I cannot stay in this place any longer."

He muttered to himself. Although he was very unwilling, his life was more important.

However, what about Su Yi?
