Master of the Demon Emperor

"Who are you?"

Li Huahun stared at Qing Jushi expressionlessly, his words tinged with murderous intent.

He had just arrived and already someone was trying to send him away. Given his temperament, the fact that he hadn't immediately attacked was quite restrained.

Nan Xiaopao tugged at Su Yie and gave him a look that was both resentful and sorrowful, which made him feel very helpless.

"Demon Emperor, this person is full of murderous aura, an ominous and evil omen. Following him, you will meet no good end."

Qing Jushi urgently said to Su Yie in a frightened expression as if Li Huahun was terribly frightful.

Just then, Li Huahun appeared out of nowhere in front of him, his right hand shot out like lightning, grasping Qing Jushi's neck and lifting him above his head.

At this point, Qing Jushi could no longer speak; his entire face was turning red from being unable to breathe.

"Old man, if you spread falsehoods again, I will crush you."

Li Huahun stared into Qing Jushi's eyes and said coldly.

If it hadn't been for considering Su Yie, Qing Jushi would have been dead already.

Su Yie did not stop him, instead wanting to see if Li Huahun could force Qing Jushi to reveal his true power.

Unfortunately, Qing Jushi disappointed him.

Soon enough, Li Huahun let go of Qing Jushi. He didn't return to the Ant Queen's head but hovered in the air.

Qing Jushi coughed a few times and said bitterly, "I haven't been spreading falsehoods! I possess The Art of Foreseeing!"

Cold light flashed in Li Huahun's eyes, full of killing intent.

"Then what future do you see for him?"

Su Yie asked, considering that if Qing Jushi really was Emperor Qing Xiao, the predictions he made could very likely come true.

With a fearful glance at Li Huahun, Qing Jushi said cautiously, "I see him bathing the Ancient Wilderness in blood, clad in blood-stained clothes, laughing arrogantly, unstoppable by anyone in the world, slaughtering all beings, and wiping out every living creature in the Ancient Wilderness."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Su Yie, Nan Xiaopao, and Li Huahun all changed unnaturally.

What was most crucial was that Li Huahun fell into silence.

Su Yie frowned, seeing Li Huahun's reaction. Could it be that he indeed harbored the intent to massacre the Ancient Wilderness?

He had always felt something amiss when he saw Li Huahun in battle. Normally, Li Huahun seemed devoid of emotions and desires, able to stand still as a post, but once he entered into combat, he was crazier than anyone.

It was as if he was born to kill.

"You're not one of the Ancient Wilderness Seven Killers, are you?"

Nan Xiaopao asked coldly, given what Qing Jushi had said. If they were still in the Ancient Wilderness in the future, wouldn't they be killed by Li Huahun?

Li Huahun bowed his head and did not answer, creating an eerie atmosphere.

Qing Jushi looked at Li Huahun with a meaningful expression and said, "It's strange, I have been in the Ancient Wilderness for countless years and have never seen a fate like yours. Not just in the Ancient Wilderness, but your killing will extend to even higher planes."

"Who exactly are you?"

Confronted by Qing Jushi's pressing question, Li Huahun raised his head, his face coldly saying, "I am your father."

"You... "

Qing Jushi was so angered he almost exploded his lungs. When had Emperor Qing Xiao ever suffered such humiliation?

I will endure!

Once I regain my peak, the humiliation of today shall be returned tenfold!

I will make you call me your ancestor!

"Alright, let's continue on our way."

Su Yie waved his hand, not particularly concerned about what Qing Jushi had said.

Even if Li Huahun slaughters the entire world, he believed Li Huahun would not hurt him.

And so, the team gained a new member: Li Huahun.

Li Huahun did not disturb Su Yie and Nan Xiaopao but followed on another layer behind the Ant Queen, escorting them.

In the following period, Su Yie in the Emperor Su's Sect heard that Haotian Wuxiang began challenging the top experts of the Southern Wilderness, starting with the Demon Path, eager to restart the path of invincibility.

Four days later.

Almost all the top experts of the Demon Path had been challenged by Haotian Wuxiang, except for Emperor Jiang Mo.

Haotian Wuxiang knew that Emperor Jiang Mo belonged to Emperor Su's Sect, so he dared not provoke him.

"Haotian Wuxiang is too strong!"

"Nonsense, he is legendary! Who in the Southern Wilderness can match him?"

"If Ru Yizi were to appear, he would definitely be able to defeat Haotian Wuxiang!"

"Supreme Dragon Shaking is also qualified, right?"

"It's said that Haotian Wuxiang suffered a setback in the Eastern Lands before he came to wreak havoc in our Southern Wilderness!"

In a short time, Haotian Wuxiang became famous in the Southern Wilderness, stepping over the bodies of extraordinary experts to rise to the top, making people exclaim. Could this person be one of the Ancient Wilderness Seven Killers?

"Hmph, if I ever meet Haotian Wuxiang, I will make him kneel before me!"

Li Huahun snorted coldly. He still remembered that Haotian Wuxiang had troubled Su Yie, and seeing the four characters of Haotian Wuxiang ignited fury in him.

"All talk, no action!"

Nan Xiaopao rolled her eyes and snorted disdainfully.

Even if Li Huahun became much stronger, he couldn't possibly catch up with Haotian Wuxiang so quickly.

"Haotian Wuxiang? The guy who claims to be a descendant of the Celestial Emperor?"

Qing Jushi gasped for breath while curiously asking.

This guy pretends not to be tired every day, and watching him not getting tired exhausted Su Yie and the others.

Su Yie nodded slightly; the next time he encountered Haotian Wuxiang, he would personally take him down.

Once that guy became stronger, he would definitely cause trouble for the Myriad Demon Court again.

"That youngster has a good temperament, able to endure loneliness and choose the path of being invincible for a hundred lifetimes, very much in the style of the White Emperor."

Qing Jushi praised, seemingly having a very good impression of Haotian Wuxiang.

"Who is the White Emperor?"

Su Yie asked, could he be a powerful being from the Extraterrestrial?

To this, Qing Jushi just shook his head and smiled, offering no answer.

Li Huahun glanced at him and snorted coldly, clearly disliking Qing Jushi.

"Alright, the Immortal Forbidden Zone is fast approaching. Be cautious hereafter, and trust no one. After entering the Immortal Forbidden Zone, even we need to keep watch over each other. Traveling together into the Immortal Forbidden Zone may be more dangerous; most beings that die there perish at the hands of their comrades. In desperate situations, vigilance toward one's companions relaxes, and that will be the moment when the flowers of death draw near."

Qing Jushi shifted the topic, causing Su Yie and the others to look at him again.

"Why do you say that?" Nan Xiaopao asked.

Qing Jushi pondered and said, "The Immortal Forbidden Zone is the most sinister place in the Ancient Wilderness. Inside, one might even encounter the Wronged Spirits of Ancient Great Emperors. Without vigilance, we could be possessed and harm others. Moreover, traveling together into the Immortal Forbidden Zone makes it even more dangerous. Most creatures that die there do so by the hands of their own companions. In extremity, when one lets down their guard against their companion, that will be when death draws close."

His eerie explanation made Nan Xiaopao's skin crawl.

Su Yie, however, was unconcerned; if pressed, they could teleport out, leaving Qing Jushi alone in the Immortal Forbidden Zone.

After about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, they leaped over the forests, and ahead was a seemingly endless desert, utterly desolate.

Upon reaching here, they encountered more creatures.

Looking around, they could see cultivators riding Flying Artifacts.

After another hundred li of flight, they saw a village situated in the desert with several dozen stone houses. The streets were bustling with numerous creatures moving about, and on closer inspection, many stalls formed what appeared to be a marketplace.

"Let's go down and gather some information first to see what evil beings have been active in the Immortal Forbidden Zone recently."

Qing Jushi said this and took the lead in diving down.
