Master of the Demon Emperor-Chapter 229: Citywide Wanted [Third Update]
"Demon Emperor, I advise you not to be so conspicuous. The sects and clans that want you dead have already sent people into the Realm of the National Treasures. You should find a place to hide!"
Ji Leiyu snorted coldly. The Soul-devouring Blood Lotus was so precious that he didn’t want to miss out, yet he didn’t want to fight with Su Yie, so he had no choice but to reveal this information to scare Su Yie away.
However, Su Yie had already anticipated this information.
He snorted coldly and said, "It seems that your life is not the most important thing to you."
With a wave of his right hand, a treasured sword flew above his head, transforming into thousands of Sword Shadows that spanned across the sky, all with their tips pointed directly at Ji Leiyu.
Ji Leiyu’s face drastically changed, and he turned to flee immediately.
The other cultivators didn’t dare to linger either, following swiftly after him.
Su Yie’s gaze sharpened, and the countless Sword Shadows turned into a flood, chasing after them with extreme speed and reaching the horizon in the blink of an eye.
"Aaahhh—"

"General Ji, save me!"
"What kind of Sword Qi is this?"
The cultivators screamed miserably as they were torn apart by the Sword Qi, their blood spattering the sky.
Ji Leiyu, having a higher cultivation, used his Innate Divine Ability to dodge. His heart pounded with fear; just how strong was the Ten Thousand Demons Court Demon Emperor?
He swiftly disappeared into the horizon.
Su Yie did not pursue the victory; whether an ant like Ji Leiyu lived or died had no impact on him.
As for offending the Ji Family of Great Xia, he didn’t care.
It was just the right opportunity to ask the Empress of the Great Zhou for help, as she was eager to uproot the Ji Family of Great Xia and have them all executed by dismemberment!
After Ji Leiyu left, Feng Long absorbed all the souls within the Soul-devouring Blood Lotus.
"Not bad, you can take it away now."
Feng Long spoke with a satisfied laugh in Su Yie’s mind. At the same time, the Zhou Wu Sword flew back to Su Yie’s side and the dried-up corpse on the Soul-devouring Blood Lotus turned to ashes, scattering with the wind.
Su Yie immediately swept up the Soul-devouring Blood Lotus with his demonic power.
The area was unsuitable for a prolonged stay after the recent grand display.
He flew towards a mountain range in the distance, like a streak of cold light, rushing through the sky.
Soon after he had left, powerful beings arrived, but to their disappointment, the Soul-devouring Blood Lotus was no longer there.
Su Yie flew continuously for about the time it takes a stick of incense to burn, arriving between mountain ranges. He found a cave, slaughtered the Demon Beasts inside, and started to absorb the Soul-devouring Blood Lotus.
He needed to break through to the Demon Body Dao Fruit Realm as soon as possible.
By obtaining the Taoist Fruit, he would truly possess the stature of an immortal.
And so, the National Defense Artifact was temporarily set aside – after all, there was still plenty of time in the year.
Within Emperor Su’s Sect.
Venerable Xuanyuan: Sun Qitian, what exactly are you trying to do? Please withdraw your Demon Army from Human Clan territory!
God of Slaughter Gong Sunqi: Is the lesson given to you by the Sword Sect Ancestor not enough?
Sun Qitian: Hmph, we all come from Emperor Su’s Sect. Are you sure you want to bully me? I haven’t let my subordinates commit any atrocities. I’m just waiting for someone.
Piercing Arm Monkey: Big brother, who are you waiting for?
Empress of the Great Zhou: Sun Qitian might be waiting for someone.
Sun Qitian: If the Great Profound Sound Temple doesn’t show up, I won’t leave!
Black Tiger Emperor: The newcomers are getting more and more audacious these days, sigh, it seems like us old-timers are becoming irrelevant.
…
While Su Yie was cultivating, he was monitoring the chat within Emperor Su’s Sect; he hadn’t expected Sun Qitian’s real purpose for returning to the Eastern Lands was the Great Profound Sound Temple.
The Great Profound Sound Temple had once sent a Spirit Messenger to find him, but nothing came of it afterward.
He had almost forgotten the existence of the Great Profound Sound Temple, but now it seemed they were very powerful.
Sun Qitian soon revealed the reason – the Great Profound Sound Temple had wanted to take him in when his cultivation was weak, and he couldn’t even protect his own monkey kin, leaving him no choice but to flee everywhere. Now that he had returned from overseas with his powers cultivated, naturally, he sought revenge.
The Great Profound Sound Temple was one of the sacred places in the Eastern Lands, a place of much higher status than Jiaye Temple, and it was on par with the Sword Sect, if not stronger.
However, the Buddhism Sect had been closed off for thousands of years, making them much less of a presence.
```
But when it comes to the Great Profound Sound Temple, no one in the central region of the Eastern Lands dares to take it lightly.
Sun Qitian had already agreed to a battle with a Buddha from the Great Profound Sound Temple, so he was waiting on the borders of the Human Clan.
Besides that, the Overlord of Western Chu was also inquiring about Su Yie’s whereabouts; the Realm of the National Treasures was too vast, and it was not easy to meet someone.
Time passed in this way.
For five consecutive days, Su Yie did not leave the cave and quietly absorbed the Soul-devouring Blood Lotus.
Through Emperor Su’s Sect, he learned that Sovereign of the Nether Sky had also entered the Realm of the National Treasures.
Regarding this, he was unconcerned, actually feeling somewhat elated. It was best if all his enemies came together, so he could capture them all in one go and save the uses of the Divine Shadow Legion.
The Soul-devouring Blood Lotus in his hand had withered and was more than five times smaller compared to when it was in the center of the lake.
Su Yie’s demonic power had reached an extremely surging state.
He felt that he was very close to the Demon Body Dao Fruit Realm, just one step away from breaking through.
But that one step seemed impossible to cross.
It was as if something hidden was holding him back.
This made him very irritated.
There was a feeling of being powerless despite the will to proceed.
"Don’t be discouraged; your breakthrough speed is already defying the heavens. What’s a little shackle? Sooner or later, you will break through," Feng Long consoled him in Su Yie’s mind. Now that it had become several times stronger in soul, its mood was very good.
Su Yie took a deep breath, threw the remains of the Soul-devouring Blood Lotus aside, and got up to leave.
If he could get another Soul-devouring Blood Lotus with a similar age, he might be able to break through to the Demon Body Dao Fruit Realm.
After leaving the cave, he flew towards the north.
According to the Overlord of Western Chu, if he flew to the northern area within the Realm of the National Treasures, he would meet him.
The Overlord of Western Chu had great ambitions and wanted to seize the Earth Rank National Defense Artifact, the Divine Vein Cauldron.
With the Earth Rank National Defense Artifact, the Chu Empire would have the hope of becoming the Holy Dynasty of Chu!
Just as he had flown out not long ago, Murong Invincible suddenly spoke out within Emperor Su’s Sect.
Murong Invincible: "Su Yie, Sovereign of the Nether Sky and other powers are issuing a warrant for you within the Realm of the National Treasures, saying that there will be a heavy reward if they find your whereabouts."
Overlord of Western Chu: "Hmph! It’s just right to spread the divine might of Emperor Su’s Sect!"
Tai Su Sword Lord: "A bunch of clowns dare to capture the Demon Emperor?"
Divine Ghost Lü Wutian: "Don’t be afraid, we are here!"
Demon Wolf Star: "The Demon Lord is someone Emperor Su values. If you protect him well, perhaps Emperor Su will favor you later!"
Venerable Xuanyuan: "That’s right, maybe Su Yie is a descendant of Emperor Su?"
...
Su Yie’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, but he did not take the hunt by Sovereign of the Nether Sky and the others seriously.
It was a good opportunity to hone himself in battle. Without an extreme situation, how could one rise from a desperate position?
With that thought, Su Yie flew at full speed on his sword.
Time shifted, and five hours passed.
There was no night in the Realm of the National Treasures. According to what Feng Long said, this place was a Little World, isolated from the Ancient Wilderness.
"Yo! Isn’t this the Demon Emperor of the Myriad Demon Court? I still prefer to call you Demon Lord."
As Su Yie crossed over a mountain peak, a mocking voice reached his ears, startling him to turn his head to look around, but there were no figures in sight.
"Be careful behind you!"
Feng Long suddenly shouted in Su Yie’s mind, alarming him to subconsciously use his Transcendental Divine Skills.
Lu Nitian appeared where Su Yie had vanished, his expression changing slightly as he marveled inwardly: "What was that divine skill just now?"
Su Yie appeared a hundred meters away, watching him warily and said in a deep voice, "Heavenly Minister of Great Qin, what do you want?"
During the Three Dynasties’ Saint Competition, he had seen Lu Nitian in the Military Camp of Great Qin and the impression was profound.
