Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 1027 - 1025: Vision (2 Updates)

"Oh? And why do you wish to submit to me?" Su Chen’s smile carried a hint of playful amusement as he stared at Emperor Qing with interest.

"Young Master Su, I believe you are aware that the apocalypse of the Divine Martial Continent is fast approaching," Emperor Qing’s expression turned solemn and grave.

Su Chen nodded. "Indeed. The Extraterrestrial Celestial Race could descend upon us at any moment. The apocalypse is inevitable."

"During the late period of the Ancient Era, not only did human Martial Cultivators face invasions from the Celestial Race, but the Monster Beast Clan did as well."

"Furthermore, the Monster Beast Clan understands the terror of the Celestial Race better than humans do."

"I, Emperor Qing, do not believe I possess enough power to lead the Buddha Domain through this apocalyptic catastrophe."

"By bringing all the demon beasts of the Buddha Domain to submit to Young Master Su, I am gambling. If the gamble pays off, at least the Buddha Domain might survive."

......

Su Chen nodded, thinking it was pretty much in line with his own assessments. This Beast Emperor Qing was indeed clever, possessing extraordinary courage and foresight. Worthy of being called the Beast Emperor.

In the next moment, Su Chen asked with curiosity, "Then, why does the Beast Emperor believe I can contend with the Celestial Race?"

"Instinct." Emperor Qing paused for a moment before responding, then followed it with a wry smile: "Truthfully, I’m not certain. But at the very least, Young Master Su should be the strongest individual on the Divine Martial Continent—stronger than me, Emperor Qing. If there must be a savior for the Divine Martial Continent, then that savior would undoubtedly be Young Master Su. And if even Young Master Su cannot save the continent, then its destruction is fated, and whether or not I submit to you matters little."

Ultimately, it’s a mindset of—if the gamble succeeds, it’s a huge win; if it fails, there’s nothing to lose.

Emperor Qing is astute enough.

"Then welcome, Beast Emperor!" Su Chen stared deeply into Emperor Qing’s eyes, then nodded. "Starting today, the passage between Fierce Domain and Buddha Domain will open. Additionally, within Fierce Domain and Buddha Domain, all Martial Cultivators and demon beasts at Ancestral Saint Realm and above—gather together! Gather your forces at the Heavenly Gate Gorge!!!"

Su Chen was essentially issuing a magical decree.

The humans and demon beasts had united.

And Su Chen himself was the commander of this alliance.

Since humans and beasts were now allied, it was only natural to choose a central base camp, a place to consolidate all formidable powers into a unified force. This was the only chance to resist the Extraterrestrial Celestial Race. Otherwise, once fragmented, they would be picked off one by one. According to Su Chen’s understanding and speculation, human Martial Cultivators individually, as well as demon beast powerhouses, were absolutely no match for the Celestial Race.

So, where should the base camp be established?

The Heavenly Gate Gorge!!!

Without a doubt.

This was something Su Chen had considered early on in the Heaven Earth Battle Tomb.

First, the geographic location of the Heavenly Gate Gorge was highly strategic—easy to defend and difficult to attack. For the weaker side—that is, the humans and demon beasts of the Divine Martial Continent—defense was paramount, not offense.

Second, beneath the Heavenly Gate Gorge lied a convergence of three ancestral veins, making the area exceptionally rich in Spiritual Energy. It was an ideal location.

Third, the Heavenly Gate Gorge was also very close to the entrance of the continent’s Four Great Ancient Nations. Though the Martial Cultivators from the Four Great Ancient Nations were comparatively weaker, their numbers were an advantage that could not be overlooked. According to Su Chen’s plan, the strong Martial Cultivators from the Four Great Ancient Nations would need to be summoned as well.

"Understood!" Emperor Qing was the first to respond to Su Chen’s magical decree. He stood up and respectfully moved forward to stand before Su Chen. With just one commanding glance toward the hundred or so supreme demon beast powerhouses he had brought along, every single one of them also stepped forward respectfully and aligned themselves behind Su Chen. The level of authority Emperor Qing held within the Monster Beast Clan was crystal clear.

At the same time, Sheng Yingkun, Elderly Hun Qing, Wan Tonghai, Xu Chi, Ji Yueqing, and the others likewise stepped forward and respectfully stood behind Su Chen.

Then, Emperor Qing suddenly spoke up: "Young Master Su, I have a request."

"Speak." Su Chen gave Emperor Qing a glance.

"I humbly ask Young Master Su to accept my daughter as your mount!" Emperor Qing spoke solemnly, his voice filled with earnest sincerity.

The instant he said this, the surrounding humans and demon beasts instinctively swallowed hard, alarmed!

A mount???!!!

Human Martial Cultivators had always enjoyed using demon beasts as mounts, especially flying demon beasts, which were incredibly popular.

But due to the Monster Beast Clan’s numerous powerhouses, their volatile temperaments, and their bloodthirsty nature, few human Martial Cultivators dared to actually use a demon beast as a mount. Only a handful of super-powerhouses have attempted it, and even then, they had only chosen beasts with inferior bloodlines. They would never dare to lay claim to one of the high-bloodline demon beasts.

Di Qiong was an Emperor Dragon!

A bloodline of unimaginable supremacy.

A terror that defied description.

Moreover, Di Qiong was the Little Princess of the Fierce Domain—the only daughter of the Beast Emperor.

This...

To use Di Qiong as a mount...

Uh... it’s beyond mythical.

The catch here? It was the Beast Emperor Qing himself making this request!

In the distance, Di Qiong, whose injuries had slightly healed, suddenly erupted with fury, agitation, and even lost self-control: "Imperial Father! No!!! Imperial Father! You cannot do this! Imperial Father..."

Di Qiong’s voice even carried hints of sobs, as though devastated.

A mount?

Even in death, she had never imagined her father would one day offer her to a human as a mount!

"Qiong’er, do not be stubborn. We still need to see if Young Master Su is even willing to accept you." Emperor Qing’s voice was firm as he gazed at his daughter, his tone leaving no room for argument.

He truly intended this for his daughter’s benefit.

Emperor Qing had lived for millions of years. What made him most formidable was not his strength, but his experience and insight.

Su Chen—merely twenty-four years old, possessing Ancestral Saint Realm Eighth Layer cultivation, yet capable of instantly defeating someone at Origin Domination Realm Seventh Layer! The implications of Su Chen’s future...

Emperor Qing even believed that should this Divine Martial apocalypse pass, Su Chen would have the potential to ascend to the Advanced Martial Plane and even the Grand Cosmos World.

The Emperor Dragon Clan, though noble and supreme, had also seen clansmen break through from Minor Thousand Worlds in the past.

This moment presented a rare opportunity to wager everything!

Why not gamble?

At face value, offering Di Qiong as Su Chen’s mount seemed humiliating. But if one day Su Chen broke through the Minor Thousand Worlds and became a titan in the Grand Cosmos World? Would being his mount then be considered shameful? No—it would be an honor.

Besides, even though the term "mount" might sound demeaning, in essence, she’d be spending the most time by Su Chen’s side. Di Qiong’s beauty was unmatched, hailed as the Fierce Domain’s number one beauty—by a wide margin. Emperor Qing firmly believed that over time, Di Qiong’s relationship with Su Chen could deepen further.

Moreover, compared to Su Chen’s other human women, being his mount—while unflattering in name—would afford his daughter the closest proximity to him. And proximity often mattered most.

Emperor Qing was a wizened old creature of millions of years. His vision and wisdom were far beyond what ordinary minds could fathom.
