Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

Imperial Capital, inside Tianxing Hall.

At this moment, Su Han had already returned here, accompanied by Li Mingliang and Li Qingyue.

The two of them hid in the depths of the underground mine tunnels. Although the terrifying battle above affected the underground, they were not seriously injured. The Flying Immortal Great Emperor discovered them and brought them back together.

”Your Highness, King Yama’s Palace has spoken, stating ’thus far and no further.’

Li Mingliang reported the latest news to Su Han.

The meaning of the phrase ’thus far and no further’ is manifold, but issuing it now only intends to end this battle, not wanting to increase unnecessary casualties.

However, the grudges between the two sides have been sewn, and there will inevitably be many conflicts and disputes in the future. This is something both the Flying Immortal Great Emperor and Su Han understand.

Nonetheless, this was already the best outcome possible. Su Han’s plan was successful, and King Yama’s Palace suffered heavy losses. Additionally, he witnessed the actions of the Mysterious Great Sword Saint and the Flying Immortal Great Emperor, allowing Su Han to gain some understanding of these two future adversaries.

Everything was as he wished!

The only regret was that the Dugu Imperial Clan and the Ancient Chu Family did not intervene, otherwise he could also have avenged these two Immortal Forces.

”Forget it, wanting too much can lead to failure. It’s already quite good to have the result we have now. As for the Dugu Imperial Clan and the Ancient Chu Family, there will be opportunities to take revenge in the future!”

Su Han had long listed these two Immortal Forces on his must-kill list. In the future, if he encounters people from these two forces, he will prioritize avenging them.

”Your Highness, this must be due to the Great Emperor Covenant. The Nangong Imperial Clan’s tragic incident a hundred years ago was also a warning to other Immortal Forces. They don’t want King Yama’s Palace to act too recklessly. This time, all sides must have exerted pressure, so the battle could not commence.”

Based on his life experience, Li Mingliang spoke of his guess, offering Su Han some reference.

The Great Emperor Covenant is no empty talk. It is an agreement that binds all Great Emperor Realm experts in the Desolate Heavenly Ancient Realm, or else the entire world would fall into chaos.

”Regardless of what happened behind the scenes, the current situation is advantageous to us. Neither King Yama’s Palace nor other Immortal Forces should dare to assassinate me again. Of course, open challenges will surely follow, but these are the best grindstones for me!”

Su Han’s eyes shone with a light full of confidence and wisdom.

This battle for revenge involved saints and great emperors. His realm was too low to interfere effectively, so his influence was limited. But when it comes to peer competition, he fears no one, even if they are high-ranked talents on the Hidden Dragon List; he dares to wield his sword in battle.

”Your Highness, you must be careful of the Imperial Son and Emperor’s Daughter from King Yama’s Palace. These two are not to be trifled with!”

Hearing Su Han’s words, Li Mingliang’s expression grew somber, reminding him in a deep voice.

”Tell me about their strength!”

Su Han was already mentally prepared, and this time he opened his mouth to ask Li Mingliang.

Although King Yama’s Palace uttered the words ’thus far and no further,’ it only meant that older generation strongmen would not take strong action against Su Han, but in peer competitions, even the Flying Immortal Great Emperor couldn’t say much about it.

And as King Yama’s Palace is the number one dark force in the Central Plains, the Imperial Son and Emperor’s Daughter they nurture must be very powerful, perhaps even surpassing the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince. Su Han was mentally prepared for all of this.

”Your Highness, there are two top talents in King Yama’s Palace, whose real names are unknown. Within King Yama’s Palace, they are referred to by their codes; the Imperial Son’s code is Zhong Kui, and the Emperor’s Daughter’s code is Meng Po!”

Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son!

Meng Po, the Emperor’s Daughter!

Su Han was slightly surprised, not expecting the Imperial Son and Emperor’s Daughter of King Yama’s Palace to take the legendary deities as their codes, but it also showed the extraordinariness of these two individuals.

”The strength of Meng Po, the Emperor’s Daughter, is slightly weaker, ranking thirty-eighth on the Hidden Dragon List. She is said to be a Semi-Saint and could achieve Instant Sanctification at any time. Her character is charming yet treacherous, but she likes women and not men, travels with great pomp, never shying away from others. Anyone who dares to gaze or comment extensively will have their eyes gouged and tongues cut out, acting with cruelty!”

Li Mingliang had heard some rumors about Meng Po, the Emperor’s Daughter, before, and by utilizing the power of the Imperial Court to gather information, he obtained comprehensive data.

Semi-Saint!

Thirty-eighth on the Hidden Dragon List!

Indeed, a figure, but Su Han is also a Semi-Saint now. He confidently believes he can defeat Meng Po, the Emperor’s Daughter, even slay her in a direct confrontation.

”Oh, Meng Po, the Emperor’s Daughter, possesses the Forget River Sacred Body. Rumored to forget people’s pasts, many of her female pets have been made to forget their memories before acknowledging her as their master.”

Li Mingliang remembered something and added a sentence.

The Forget River Sacred Body ranks one thousand five hundred and one on the Special Physique List, not too high, but its unique ability to erase memories makes people wary.

This, however, made Su Han’s eyes light up with pleasant surprise, as he hadn’t encountered a Special Physique in a while. If he could devour Meng Po, the Emperor’s Daughter’s Forget River Sacred Body, his Sacred Body would become even more powerful, and he could obtain new memories of gods and demons.

”And what about Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son?”

Through Li Mingliang’s description, Su Han already had some understanding of Meng Po, the Emperor’s Daughter, so he asked about another talented individual at this moment.

”Your Highness, Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son is very strong, even stronger than the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince!”

As he brought up Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son, Li Mingliang’s face turned grave, and his tone became somber.

”Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son, ranks fifth on the Hidden Dragon List. Three years ago, he broke through the Saint Realm. His current realm is unknown to outsiders but is definitely exceptional. Unlike Meng Po, the Emperor’s Daughter’s flamboyance, Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son, is very low-key, often walking in darkness, rarely seen by outsiders. His battles are mostly unknown to others, so there isn’t much information about him.”

”Moreover, Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son, also possesses a Special Physique known as the Ethereal Ghost Physique, rumored to be a Special Physique that can devour ghosts and demons, but there aren’t many specific capabilities recorded, so it’s hard to know.”

Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son, is much stronger than Meng Po, the Emperor’s Daughter. Su Han had fought with the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince, even using all his means but failed to win, and eventually barely won by erasing his consciousness with the Prison Divine Palace.

Yet Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son, ranks three places higher than the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince on the Hidden Dragon List, showing his strength and extraordinariness.

The Ethereal Ghost Physique indeed interests Su Han because it ranks one hundred and one on the Special Physique List as a powerful physique. If he could devour its refinement, his Sacred Body might reach the Perfected Realm.

However, Zhong Kui, the Imperial Son, had been sanctified three years ago and now might have reached the fourth or fifth layer of the Saint Realm. Such an opponent is definitely not easy to kill and devour.

In the world, nothing is difficult as long as one has determination!

Su Han knew that even if he didn’t provoke them, they would still represent King Yama’s Palace to trouble him. Since that’s the case, he would have to defeat them one by one and slay them all.

I am the demon, meant to slay all enemies in the world!

For those who oppose me, there is only one outcome: death.
