Master of the Demon Emperor-Chapter 687: The Lady I Owe [9th Update]

After breaking through to the Second Heaven of the Supreme Emperor of the Great Dao Realm, Su Yie did not leave, but continued to use the Ancestral Flower of Creation to attract Creatures of Primordial Genesis.

The battle with Fallen Purgatory made him realize he was still too weak and that he must seize the time to get stronger, or else even enduring to the last ten years would be difficult.

Time thus passed by.

One year.

Five years.

Ten years.

Twenty years.

It took Su Yie twenty years to breakthrough to the Seventh Heaven of the Supreme Emperor of the Great Dao Realm.

The most important reason was that the breakthrough of the Heavenly Emperor Divine Body required too much energy.

If it were other creatures, they might have reached the Twelve Heavens.

As the spatial walls of the Chessboard of the Divine Talents shrank closer, Su Yie had to move forward.

Now at the Seventh Heaven of the Supreme Emperor of the Great Dao Realm, he was very curious about his own strength.

One thing was certain, facing Fallen Purgatory again, he would win with ease.

Not only because of his cultivation but also because of the Heavenly Emperor Divine Body.

The Heavenly Emperor Divine Body was definitely the strongest physique, its physical strength was monstrously aberrant, and according to Su Yie's guess, if Fallen Purgatory were alive, it would be impossible to burst him again.

At the same time, his Battle Will soared to the tenth layer, while his Arcane Battle Techniques remained at the seventh layer.

As he flew on, he didn't encounter any Heavenly Prides.

After flying for about half a day, Su Yie stopped to continue attracting Creatures of Primordial Genesis.

He only had twelve Ancestral Flowers of Creation left in his hand.

However, he had not found any Ancestral Flowers of Creation along the way, which made him regret it in hindsight.

If he had known this would happen, he would have collected more Ancestral Flowers of Creation in the Myriad Peak area.

Just like that, another five years went by.

Su Yie unobstructedly broke through to the Eighth Heaven of the Supreme Emperor of the Great Dao Realm.

On this day,

just as he was about to continue attracting Creatures of Primordial Genesis, twin phoenix cries were heard.

He turned his head to look and saw two Fire Phoenixes pulling an Immortal Palace from the horizon.

With such flamboyance, it naturally was the Crimson Phoenix Empress.

Back when Sun Qitian awakened, he scared her away, and now she had broken through to the Hongmeng Realm.

Su Yie did not hide, standing on the mountaintop, quietly watching her.

The Twin Phoenix Immortal Palace stopped above his head, followed by the palace gates opening, and the Crimson Phoenix Empress walked out from within.

She looked down at Su Yie below, saying, "You've already reached the Eighth Heaven of the Supreme Emperor of the Great Dao Realm, not bad."

Su Yie looked at her indifferently, completely unmoved.

Even though the Crimson Phoenix Empress had surpassed the Infinite Realm, he was not afraid; in fact, a faint battle intent lurked within him.

"How about we cooperate?"

The Crimson Phoenix Empress spoke, feeling somewhat uncomfortable with Su Yie's attitude, but she did not dwell on it.

Su Yie asked," What kind of cooperation? What will I gain from it?"

"Countless Creation Crystals, you just need to act as bait. When the time comes, I will also take action to annihilate those Heavenly Prides."

The Crimson Phoenix Empress said with a cold laugh, her words laced with murderous intent—not towards Su Yie, but towards others.

Su Yie narrowed his eyes and asked," Is our opponent one of the Ten Strategies of the Chessboard?"

Ordinary Heavenly Prides wouldn't need the help of the Crimson Phoenix Empress, right?

"Correct, but don't worry, he's at the end of the Ten Strategies of the Chessboard. His name is Infernal Sovereign, the biological elder brother of Fallen Purgatory. His talent may be slightly less than that of Fallen Purgatory, but he's lived longer, he's strong, and he has rallied thirty-four Proud Heavens of the Supreme Lord of Infinity."

The Crimson Phoenix Empress replied, causing Su Yie to frown.

After killing Fallen Purgatory, to kill his brother too?

But on further thought, it made sense. With the fall of Fallen Purgatory already known, would Infernal Sovereign let Su Yie go?

Rather than waiting for Infernal Sovereign to seek revenge, it's better to take the initiative!

"Alright, I agree."

Su Yie spoke, and the Crimson Phoenix Empress revealed a smile.

With a wave of her right hand, both Fire Phoenixes and the Immortal Palace vanished.

"Follow me."

The Crimson Phoenix Empress beckoned, and after speaking, she turned and flew in another direction.

Su Yie closely followed behind her.

He maintained a certain distance from the Crimson Phoenix Empress.

"What? Are you afraid of me?"

The Crimson Phoenix Empress asked provocatively, but unfortunately, Su Yie remained unmoved.

Seeing this, she had no choice but to slow down and fly beside Su Yie.

A strange and scorching fragrance entered Su Yie's nose, causing him to frown slightly.

"What is your relationship with Tian Cheng Divine Monarch? Why does he protect you so?"

The Crimson Phoenix Empress suddenly asked. After Su Yie had narrowly won in Fallen Purgatory, he should have been killed, but Tian Cheng Divine Monarch stepped forward to shield him, a matter that caused quite a stir.

"What business is it of yours, are you so concerned about Tian Cheng Divine Monarch?"

Su Yie glanced at her and countered.

He did not hold a good impression of this woman and if not for mutual interests, he might have attacked the Crimson Phoenix Empress.

"Of course it concerns me; I had the opportunity to become in-laws with him once, but alas, his short-lived elder brother,"

The Crimson Phoenix Empress said with a shake of her head and a smile, but her smile seemed so cold, it gave off an extremely dangerous feeling.

Upon hearing this, Su Yie couldn't help but frown.

Before Qin Tianyun's consciousness dissipated, he said he regretted hurting two people, one of them a woman, and he even transmitted her voice and appearance into Su Yie's mind.

The woman was devastatingly beautiful, and although the Crimson Phoenix Empress was also attractive, it was not her.

Could it be that this woman was related to the Crimson Phoenix Empress?

At that thought, Su Yie pressed on, "Can you tell me about it?"

His tone softened, not as tense as before.

The Crimson Phoenix Empress gazed ahead, her eyes shimmering as she said softly, "I have an elder sister who once loved the Son of the Heavenly Emperor, Celestial Fate God Emperor, but sadly he perished in the midst of time and space. My poor sister has been grieving for countless years, pining away her affections on a tree."

Su Yie felt an inexplicable pain listening to this.

He was the reincarnation of Qin Tianyun, so naturally, he could empathize easily.

Regrettably, he already had another beautiful woman in his heart.

"Where is your sister?" Su Yie asked.

The Crimson Phoenix Empress glanced at him and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Su Yie said calmly, "Maybe I can help resolve your sister's emotional entanglement."

Upon hearing this, the Crimson Phoenix Empress suddenly laughed, her laughter like the vibrant shaking of branches and leaves.

She glanced at Su Yie and said, "Men are all no good."

Su Yie frowned, feeling frustrated inside, not knowing how to explain himself.

The urgent matter was to first survive and leave the Sacred Talent Chessboard. He would deal with other things later, so Su Yie said no more.

The Crimson Phoenix Empress, seemingly having her past memories evoked, also fell silent.

The rest of the journey was without conversation.

After flying for about two hours, the pair landed on the top of a mountain.

"Thirty thousand li ahead, there is a huge pit filled with Ancestral Flowers of Creation. The Infernal Sovereign and his minions have gathered there,"

the Crimson Phoenix Empress disclosed. As she spoke, she waved her right hand and countless red stones flew out from her sleeve, spreading into the air and disappearing from sight.

Su Yie raised his eyebrows slightly, quietly curious.

The Crimson Phoenix Empress turned to him and said, "You draw the Infernal Sovereign here, and I will activate the Formation to restrain him."

"You may go now."

Su Yie nodded, leapt up, and swept toward the direction indicated by the Crimson Phoenix Empress.

At the same time.

Thirty thousand li away, amidst a vast wilderness, there was a giant pit tens of thousands of zhang in diameter filled with hordes of Creatures of Primordial Genesis that resembled ants, their writhing masses enough to make onlookers' scalps tingle.
