Old Lord Qiyang wanted to take Su Yi away to avoid Emperor Su causing him trouble.

But the place he was heading to was not suitable for bringing Su Yi along.

What should he do?

Wait!

Old Lord Qiyang suddenly thought of something and hurriedly closed his eyes.

Inside the Emperor Su Sect chat interface.

Old Lord Qiyang: Emperor Su, I request your help. It is not just for me, but also for the sword genius you have taken an interest in.

Black Tiger Emperor: Help? With so many factions eyeing your Qiling Land lately, you should be running for your life!

Qingyan Devil Lord: The Seven Dynasties are all staring at the Strange City in your Qiling Land. Stop struggling; even if Emperor Su intervenes, it will be a thankless task.

Demon Wolf Star: Qiling Land? Is that where the Strange City fell from the sky?

Old Lord Qiyang's plea for help made the Emperor Su Sect lively.

Even Wu Qingyao spoke up, stating that she was currently in the Strange City and warning Old Lord Qiyang not to harm anyone within it.

Old Lord Qiyang ignored her. Although the Luoshui Sect was a renowned righteous sect, compared to the Western Buddha Dynasty or Great Wei, it was nothing at all.

Emperor Su: If you want to flee, then flee. Do not worry about him; I have other arrangements for him.

Old Lord Qiyang: Other arrangements? I am truly envious...

Wu Qingyao: Senior Emperor Su, how do the Seven Dynasties compare to the Emperor Su Sect?

Emperor Su: The Seven Dynasties? I can determine their life or death with a single word!

Demon Wolf Star: Hiss—is he really that powerful?

Qingyan Devil Lord: Tsk tsk, it seems you, Emperor Su, truly come from a higher realm.

Even the usually arrogant Qingyan Devil Lord began to address Su Yi with respect, which made Su Yi feel quite smug.

His bragging skills were becoming increasingly proficient!

At this moment, Su Yi was walking through the woods. He wanted to head outward to see if he could encounter any stronger Demons and Monsters.

The reason he agreed to let Old Lord Qiyang flee alone was actually because he wanted to take over Old Lord Qiyang's demon army.

All the Demons and Monsters in the entire Qiling Land took Old Lord Qiyang as their leader. If he could bring them under his control, Su Yi's life would be much easier.

Thinking of this, he stopped speaking in the Emperor Su Sect and focused on searching for Demons and Monsters.

Having left Xiwan City, he could encounter Demons and Monsters everywhere.

However, most of these were still in the stage of condensing demon energy; they were stronger than wild beasts, but could not be considered true Demons and Monsters.

Demons and Monsters first cultivate demon energy, then use that energy to condense into demon power, which then crystallizes into a demon core to become a true Great Demon. Further up, after surviving the tribulation of transformation, they become Humanoid Demon, capable of galloping across regions, ruling over mountains and forests, and being called a Demon King.

There were very few Humanoid Demon in the Qiling Land, and their strength was estimated to be about the same as the Red Blood Snake King.

Along the way, any Demon or Monster with a shred of intelligence was violently subdued by Su Yi.

Gradually, he began to be followed by wolf demons, cat demons, tiger demons, bear demons, and so on. They were all still in the stage of condensing demon energy, but they were larger than ordinary beasts of the same kind and could barely speak human language.

In less than half a day, there were already twenty-three Demons and Monsters following behind Su Yi.

Su Yi came to a tree and sat down. Looking at the terrified Demons and Monsters around him, he said irritably, "Are you all that afraid of me?"

A grey-furred rat the size of a house dog spoke up, "We are not afraid, we are showing you respect!"

"Yes! Respect! You are much more powerful than Old Lord Qiyang!"

Another pangolin followed up, prompting the other Demons and Monsters to chime in.

Su Yi shook his head and smiled. He suddenly felt that being a demon wasn't so bad; at least he could have so many little demons flattering him.

"Do you know who is the most powerful in the Qiling Land besides Old Lord Qiyang?"

Su Yi asked. Blind searching was meaningless; it was better to let the little demons lead the way.

Once he finished subduing the Demons and Monsters of the Qiling Land, he would have to continue his cultivation.

No matter how much external power he had, it was not as important as becoming stronger himself.

"To the north of the Qiling Land, in the border area, there is a Humanoid Demon called the Purple-Backed Bear King. He is the strongest demon of our bear clan!"

A bear demon said, its eyes darting around, clearly harboring ill intentions.

Purple-Backed Bear King?

It sounded quite impressive!

"Take me there!"

Su Yi ordered. Upon hearing this, the bear demon was immediately excited.

And so, he led a large group of Demons and Monsters, marching majestically toward the northern border area. The Demons and Monsters encountered along the way were all subdued by Su Yi.

Compared to humans, the Demon Race understood loyalty better and followed the principle that the strong are respected. As long as they submitted, they generally would not betray, unless they encountered a stronger Demon King.

Although those Demons and Monsters who had surrendered to Su Yi were not following him, they would all rush to him at the sound of his long howl.

On the other side, Old Lord Qiyang stood on Laojun Mountain watching this scene. He was secretly annoyed, but constrained by the majesty of the Emperor Su, he could only endure it. In the end, he sighed and rode the clouds away.

The top Demon King of the Qiling Land had fled just like that, without a sound.

Except for Su Yi and Wu Qingyao, no one knew.

On the playground of Baiqiao University.

Wu Qingyao sat cross-legged on the grass, eyes closed in cultivation, drawing many gazes toward her, all stunned by her beauty and temperament.

Mo Haosheng wanted to strike up a conversation with her, but unfortunately, Wu Qingyao ignored him, leaving him to honestly assess the new disciples.

As of now, more than a hundred people had already been sent to the Luoshui Sect.

Even though Xiwan City had been bloodied by Demons and Monsters, its population remained large. The Luoshui Sect could not finish this feast alone; they received news that other sects had already sent disciples, and even the Great Wei and the Western Buddha Dynasty had arrived.

Not long after, the Four Elders of Great Wei suddenly appeared within Baiqiao University. They strolled over, the robes they wore clearly not belonging to anyone from Xiwan City, causing the citizens along the way to give way one after another.

"The Four Elders of Great Wei!"

As soon as Mo Haosheng saw them, his face changed drastically in fear, and he hurried over. The other disciples had never seen the Four Elders of Great Wei, but they had heard the name and were all shocked.

Even the Four Elders of Great Wei had come!

Wu Qingyao also opened her eyes and stood up. The status of the Four Elders of Great Wei in the righteous path was comparable to the sect leader of her Luoshui Sect; naturally, she could not be impolite.

Great Wei has arrived. What kind of secret is the Strange City hiding?

Wu Qingyao lowered her eyes, unable to help but worry for the people of the entire city.

So many forces were not all here for the safety of the people of Xiwan City; most had their own ambitions.

Rumble--

Just at this moment, a huge explosion suddenly came from the East District, accompanied by an earthquake, as if something were breaking through the ground.

The expressions of the Four Elders of Great Wei changed drastically, and they immediately leaped into the air, disappearing on the other side of the teaching building.

Mo Haosheng was stunned. What had attracted the attention of the Four Elders of Great Wei?

At the same time.

On the grassland to the north of the Qiling Land, a group of demon beasts lay prostrate on the ground, circling round after round. There were hundreds of them, all trembling and terrified.

In their center, Su Yi was stepping on a burly man.

This man wore pants made of animal hide, was bare-chested, his back covered in purple animal fur, and his face still retained the features of a bear.

It was the Humanoid Demon, the Purple-Backed Bear King!

"Even if you kill me, I will not submit!"

The Purple-Backed Bear King roared, his voice like thunder, stirring up the wind on the grassland.

Su Yi snorted coldly, his right foot suddenly exerting force, causing the ground beneath his feet to collapse and the spine of the Purple-Backed Bear King to snap.

"Stop! I was wrong! I submit!"

The Purple-Backed Bear King screamed at the top of his lungs, blood gushing uncontrollably from his mouth, in extreme pain.
