Chapter 275 - Breakthrough

Chapter 275: Breakthrough


The city Su Wen was currently in was a very small settlement of the Demon Race.


Everyone looked at Su Wen with reverence as he ate.


As a member of the Demonic Tribe…


In the eyes of the lower races, they were high and mighty.


The demon tribes were extremely xenophobic, hence their own tribes would only receive the best treatment.


Consequently, once something happened, it would be dealt with as an entire tribe.


However, it was impossible for every tribe to be gathered together. There were many branches that lived in various places.


Because the tribes were more diverse and their characteristics were more obvious, this kind of situation was naturally not surprising.


Su Wen was currently at an area under the rule of the Demonic Tribe. All of the powerful figures were from the Demonic Tribe.


After Su Wen had a simple meal, he left the restaurant.


He casually threw down a few Demon Stones. These were obtained from the Demon Race members who wanted to attack him along the way.


Along the way, Su Wen encountered several battles. It was obvious that compared to the human world, the people here were much more valiant.


It was much more chaotic and disorderly.


However, the situation in the city was slightly better.


Out of caution, Su Wen still changed his appearance and added a silver horn to his head.


After all, many demons knew his appearance right now!


When the Heaven Rank experts gathered to attack, Su Wen stood out to negotiate with the Demon Emperor. Su Wen didn’t know if those people remembered his appearance, but he wouldn’t gamble on it.


Most of the ordinary demons were also ordinary people. It was just that their bodies and talents were stronger.


Su Wen pondered as he walked through the city. Although he had Ni Hongxiao’s Sensory Star Disk, just relying on that thing was clearly not enough.


At the very least, he had to find a way to obtain information.


What if someone had seen Su Su before?


It was clearly not easy for him to gather information on his own.


“I have to get some manpower!”


Su Wen muttered to himself.


The good part about the Demon Realm was that it was not difficult to get manpower!


The slave trade was completely legal here. No one cared about it.


However, Su Wen… did not have any money!


Without money, he could not buy people. He had to think of other methods.


Just as he was thinking, Su Wen suddenly saw a large group of Demonic Tribe members walking over from afar.


Behind them were people with fair skin, white hair, and white eyes.


The White Demon Tribe. They were also one of the tribes in the Demon Race.


These people’s skin was as white as snow. It was as if they were suffering from leukemia.


“Make way, make way!”


There were people from the Demonic Tribe led the way, clearing the streets so it was easier for them to walk.


Su Wen also stood by the side of the road.


Looking at the despairing faces of the White Demon Tribe, he narrowed his eyes.


The surrounding discussions could also be heard.


“What happened?”


“You still don’t know? Didn’t His Majesty the Demon Emperor give the order to collect the patent fees? They have to give up 5% of their total transactions for patent fees. However, the White Demon Clan’s elders spoke rudely when they came to the city for a meeting. What sort of person is the City Lord? How could he care for them? He directly ordered people to destroy the White Demon Tribe’s encampment!”


“Sigh, the Lord Demon Emperor originally already took 20% of the Giant Strength Rats as tariffs, and now he added another 5%. We can’t blame everyone for being unhappy…”


“There’s nothing we can do about that! This isn’t what the Demon Emperor wants either. It’s all the work of that Exploiter Su from the human world. Our Demon Emperor has to bear half of the burden!”


Chu Xun was not stupid. Once the matter of the patent fee was exposed, many people would definitely be unhappy. After he returned, he immediately blamed it on Su Wen!


“Exploiter Su really deserves to die!”


“Not just that, his whole family should die!”


“Hey, hey, hey… What’s wrong with you? Help! You’re gonna kill me!”


A cold smile appeared on Su Wen’s face!


Son of a b*tch, it was fine if he was scolded in the Human Race, but even if he was scolded in the Demon Race, it did not mean that Su Wen would tolerate it.


Obviously, this small White Demon Tribe was the chicken that was being slaughtered to set an example for the monkeys.


The people of the Demon Realm were used to doing things freely, and tax increases were not popular. Many things would be met with resistance when they were implemented.


Su Wen sensed that most of the people escorting the White Demon Tribe were at the 5th or 6th Grade of Earth Rank. Some of the weaker ones were only at the Star Rank and were not considered too high.


But it was enough to deal with such a tribe.


There were also quite a few people involved in their escort.


In the City Lord Residence, a fatty with a golden horn on his forehead was smiling as the Demonic Tribe members brought the White Demon Tribe people in front of him.


He walked past these people like he was reviewing his goods.


Behind him was a Demonic Tribe member with a silver horn on his forehead. He had a thin body and a flattering expression. “Lord, I’ve already brought everyone here. I’ve killed those who are too old and too young.”


“Not bad! Not bad!” The fatty’s face was full of smiles.


As he spoke, he stopped in front of a girl.


He smiled and said, “You are Bai Yuexi, right?”


This girl had snow-white skin, white pupils, white hair, a white colored beauty. She was not only exquisite, but also looked full of spirit.


She was also the daughter of the White Demon Tribe’s Patriarch, a famous beauty in several nearby cities.


Bai Yuexi looked at the fatty in front of her as hatred flashed in her eyes!


In the battle to exterminate her tribe, her brother and father had all died in battle!


And she had become a captive.


The fat city lord smiled and said, “I like your gaze. Send her to my room tonight!”


He laughed loudly, his flesh jigging with every tremble.


The hatred in Bai Yuexi’s eyes gradually gave way to despair.


She did not want to die, but neither did she want to accompany this damned fatty.


The fat city lord now turned to the others.


He rubbed his chin and said, “You White Demons are really liked by others. If I sell all of you one by one, I should be able to get quite a good price!”


With that said, he laughed maniacally once more.


He looked at Bai Yuexi and said with a lewd smile, “If you serve me well, I’ll leave you in the residence. Otherwise, I’ll chop you up and feed you to the dogs!”


His vicious words made Bai Yuexi tremble.


At this moment, the fatty City Lord suddenly saw a figure appear.


It was Su Wen. At this moment, he had unknowingly appeared in the courtyard.


“Who are you?” The fatty asked.


“Pfft!”


Su Wen remained silent, but the fat city lord’s head suddenly exploded!


Blood splattered everywhere.


Bai Yuexi’s face was sprayed with warm blood!


However, she felt extremely refreshed in his heart. After all, her enemy had been killed in front of her.


Everyone looked at Su Wen in shock.


The skinny Demonic Tribe cultivator behind the fat City Lord fell to his knees.


“My lord! Which lord are you in the tribe! Even if the City Lord has offended you, this lowly one has not!”


This Demonic Tribe member knew very well that in the Demon Realm, strength was everything. The City Lord was the strongest expert in this city.


His cultivation was at the pinnacle of the 9th Grade.


But from the looks of it, he was killed instantly by this man!


Then wasn’t this person at the Heaven Rank?


Whether it was the Human World or the Demon Realm, Heaven Rank experts had very high statuses.


This fellow was not stupid. He directly begged for mercy without any intention of resisting.


Su Wen shook his head slightly, ignoring the frightened aide.


The feeling of being unrestrained was very good. On this side, after one’s strength reached a certain level, many things became simple and direct.


Su Wen walked in front of the White Demons.


He casually said, “Submit! Or die!”


In a moment, everyone knelt down.


This included Bai Yuexi.


If they had the intention to die, they would not have been captured.


The desire to live was the purest and most innate instinct of all living beings.


Su Wen casually waved his hand and all the shackles on everyone were removed.


These people regained their freedom, but no one dared to move.


“You, as the commander, bring them and follow me!” Su Wen pointed at Bai Yuexi.


“Yes!”


Bai Yuexi did not know who Su Wen was.


However, Su Wen’s extreme strength made them unable to resist at all.


It was never unacceptable for ordinary demons to become slaves of high-level demons.


Su Wen glanced at the city lord who was lying on the ground and shook his head before turning around to leave.


The White Demons looked at each other before they followed him.


Soon, the news reached the upper echelons of the Demonic Tribe.


A city lord of a small city had been killed! It wasn’t a big deal, but the culprit was also a Demonic Tribe member, and likely a Heaven Rank expert. This was worthy of attention. After all, generally speaking, all Demonic Tribe Heaven Ranks had to listen to Chu Xun.


After hearing his subordinate’s report, Chu Xun said coldly, “A clansman has broken through to the Heaven Rank and dares to not submit to me. He even dares to kill his own clansmen! We can’t let this person off! Chu Yiming, go and get rid of him!”


After Chu Xun finished speaking, a rather delicate-looking man stood up and cupped his hands. “I will follow Royal Father’s orders. I will definitely kill him!”


Chu Yiming was Chu Xun’s fifth son. His talent was extraordinary. Although he was looked young, that was because he was already a 4th Grade Heaven Rank expert!


In Chu Xun’s opinion, this Heaven Rank expert who had suddenly appeared couldn’t be of too high a level! It was very likely that he had just broken through with the blessing of heaven and earth.


In reality, there were many such people during this period of time!


Both the demons and humans were the same.


The Heaven Earth Merit could greatly reduce one’s difficulty of breaking through to the Heaven Rank.


However, during this period of time, Su Wen had already headed in the direction of the Heavenly Fiend Clan.


According to what Wu Lie saw, the one who “abducted” Su Su was a Heavenly Fiend.


It was also the only clue Su Wen had.


Along the way, Su Wen asked these White Demon Tribe members to gather information.


It had to be said that with these hundreds of subordinates, the speed of gathering information was much faster.


“Lord Su… Who is that human child you mentioned?” Bai Yuexi asked as she massaged Su Wen.


Su Wen shook his head. “Don’t ask things that you shouldn’t!”


Bai Yuexi blushed when she saw Su Wen’s domineering expression.


Su Wen killing the City Lord could also be considered as taking revenge for her. Furthermore, Su Wen’s cultivation base was extremely high, so she already had some thoughts of her own…


In the devil race, the weak were prey to the strong. She knew very well that once she left Su Wen, she and her clansmen would not even be able to find a place to stand.


In comparison, this Lord Su was incomparably powerful. He was likely a Heaven Rank expert!


It was a normal occurrence for women to respect the strong in the Demon Race.


Her hand unconsciously strayed away from his shoulders.


“Eh?”


Su Wen frowned slightly.


He looked up at her and said coldly, “You better not provoke me.”


“Yes!”


Bai Yuexi regained her sense of propriety.


On the other side, Su Su was still riding on Halles’ neck.


“Little Ha, hurry up and fly. Why aren’t you working hard at all? Do you want to eat?” Su Su reprimanded.


Halles was speechless…


He tried his best to flap his wings and secretly made up his mind.


When I break through to the Heaven Rank one day, I’ll tear this girl apart and eat her!


A dignified descendant of the Heavenly Fiend Tribe’s royal family was being used as a mount by Su Su…


Standing on Halles, Su Su rushed deeper into the Demon Realm.


Compared to Su Wen who had to go around asking about her, her goal was extremely obvious.


At the same time, in the human world.


Chu He opened his eyes!


He had finally broken through.


Heaven Rank.


He had finally broken through to the Heaven Rank!


Suddenly, the door opened. The woman who had been chatting with Chu He last time appeared.


She had a face of smiles.


“You broke through?”


Chu He narrowed his eyes at her and said, “That’s right.”


During this period of time, the two of them had become much more familiar with each other. The woman’s name was Chen Taiyang.


Hmm, a very tacky name.


However, Chen Taiyang had some background as well. She was the Saintess of the Demon Sect of Yan Country. Now that all the Heaven Rank experts had left, she took the opportunity to enter the capital.


In the crowd, she sensed a rich demonic aura from Chu He. It was unprecedentedly intense.


If one were to describe why she could sense it…


It was simply because most of the Demon Sects in the human world cultivated the cultivation techniques left behind by the demons when they had once entered the human world.


This was also why there were no Heaven Rank experts from the Demon Sect.


The logic was simple. Once a Heaven Rank cultivator appeared in the Demon Sect, they would be surrounded and attacked by everyone.


To Chen Taiyang, she could sense a feeling she had never felt from Chu He. It was a feeling that made her want to kneel down and submit.


Therefore, she took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Chu He.


As the saying goes, men chase after women, separated by mountains, separated by water, separated by rooms, separated by betrothal gifts, separated by best friends, separated by their parents… There were too many things in between.


However, it was relatively easier for women to pursue men.


Especially… since Chu He wasn’t an experienced player.


He was a rookie who had never experienced relationships in his entire life.


Although he had followed Brother Jin to broaden his horizons, and had also discussed a lot with Zhao Rui in the Jade Water Clear Skies Sauna…


But that was only on the technical level.


On a deeper emotional level, that was a blind spot he had never been involved in.


Hence, after a while, their relationship changed.


Even Chen Taiyang knew that Chu He was about to break through to the Heaven Rank.


During this time, she had chatted with Chu He and learned that the Heaven Rank experts had all suddenly left.


Chen Taiyang was very happy!


In her opinion, she had bet on the correct side.


Chu He had become the number one expert in the current human world!


If there was only one Heaven Rank in the world, then Chen Taiyang’s idea was right.


She asked excitedly, “Are you going to take revenge?”


Clearly, during this period of time, she learnt a lot more about Chu He.


Chu He nodded and said, “That’s right!”


Chen Taiyang’s eyes flashed with madness as he screamed, “That’s great! I knew that I had good judgment. Brother Chu He, you’re going to be an emperor! You have to make me an empress!”


Chu He shook his head and said, “I don’t plan on being an emperor.”


“Why?” Chen Taiyang was puzzled. “Isn’t it good to be an emperor? He’s above everyone else, and his words carry weight!”


Chu He said indifferently, “I just don’t like it. I want to find my Young Master!”


“No!” Chen Taiyang immediately objected. “You’re already a Heaven Rank expert. In fact, you’re the only Heaven Rank expert in the entire world. Why are you still insisting on being a guard?”


Chu He shook his head and said, “I was the happiest when I was a guard!”


“That won’t do either. Do you want your child to inherit your position and be a guard for life?” Chen Taiyang tried to persuade Chu He.


Indeed, Chu He fell silent.


Chen Taiyang encouraged again, “The Country of Yan is yours to begin with. They destroyed the Qi Country and took over your home. Isn’t it only right for you to ascend to the throne again?”


Chu He shook his head. “It’s not that easy… The Heaven Rank experts of Yan Country are all on Nine Nether Island. If I ascend to the throne, what do I do when they all return?”


Chen Taiyang did not think much of it. “I don’t think so. If they could come back, they would have done so long ago. At this moment, any one of them would be a great opportunity to unify the world. Why would they stay in Nine Nether Island?”


This woman kept persuading Chu He.


Chu He sighed and said, “We’ll talk about the details later! Before that, I want to kill all the descendants of the Yan Royal Family!”


Chu He didn’t hesitate at all in doing such a thing.


If his entire family was killed, he wouldn’t be so magnanimous as to only kill Emperor Yan.


Feeling the powerful Heaven Earth Origin Qi surging in his body, Chu He turned his attention to the Great Yan Royal Capital.


He would definitely be able to do what he failed to do last time.


Chu He flew towards Emperor Yan’s palace!


Kill the Yan Country’s royal family!


He stopped directly above the palace. With a sword in hand, he slashed down towards the palace!


The violent Sword Qi brought with it a wave of Heaven Earth Origin Qi as it ruthlessly pressed down!


However, to Chu He’s surprise, an angry roar came from the palace.


“Break!”


In the palace, a punch came out and forcefully met Chu He’s Sword Qi.


Boom!


A huge shock wave exploded above the palace!


In an instant, many places in the palace were suppressed by the violent Qi force.


The eunuchs and palace maids spat out blood and fell to the ground.


Even the palace roof was smashed open by the force of the punch.


The figure inside was revealed.


Emperor Yan stood proudly in front of his throne.


He was already a 9th Grade Earth Rank cultivator from the beginning.


This time, as the ruler of a country, he obtained a large amount of Heaven Earth Merit.


Unknowingly, he had managed to break through!


Chu He never expected the fellow in front of him to break through as well.


However, when Emperor Yan saw Chu He, he was also shocked!


“You’re not dead yet?”


He had a deep impression of Chu He.


Chu He sneered. “I didn’t expect you to have already broken through to the Heaven Rank. That’s good. You can die here today!”


As he spoke, vast demonic Qi surged as he swung his sword again!


The pitch-black Sword Qi was completely different from Chu He’s previous cultivation technique.


However, Chu He had to admit that the old fellow deep in his consciousness was right.


This cultivation technique was more suitable for him!


“You’re courting death!” Emperor Yan was fearless as he brazenly brandished his fist to meet the attack.


Their Yan Country’s royal family’s martial arts were not weak as well!


The battle began.


However, the location of this battle was something Emperor Yan did not want to fight in.


After exchanging several blows, the entire palace had already turned into ruins.


For ordinary people, a fight between Heaven Rank experts could destroy the heavens and sunder the earth.


Even if it came from just a little of their residual strength.


“Do you dare to fight me outside the city?”


Emperor Yan suddenly roared.


No matter what, this was where his family stayed, and also where he conducted his court affairs!


Chu He sneered. “Then pick a location. I’ll follow you!”


Chu He also disdained killing innocents, despite being a killer.


He indeed hated Emperor Yan and the Murong family, but he did not want to vent his anger on the commoners.


The two of them flew out of the city at the same time!
