Master of the Demon Emperor-Chapter 720: Su Yie’s Elders [5th Update]
With the precedent set by Han Yuandao, no one in the Myriad Demon Court dared to divine the Imp Emperor's fortune.
"Demon Emperor, please quickly choose a name for the Imp Emperor,"
Noble Prince Shangxie urged, for without a name, how could the Myriad Demon Court make its announcement to the world?
Embroiled in anxiety, Su Yie wondered what name he should choose.
He couldn't be as casual as Nan Xiaopao's father had been.
"Call him Su Tianfeng."
Just then, a voice echoed in the hall.
"No!"
Su Yie instinctively refused, his past self was Qin Tianyun, and now to name his son Su Tianfeng, wouldn't that make them appear as peers by the names?
"No!"
Nan Xiaopao also rejected the idea. She was aware of Su Yie's identity as the son of the Heavenly Emperor, and to select such a name was greatly disrespectful. She did not want to see her husband's family belittling her from that moment on.
Wait a moment!
Both of them thought of something and instinctively looked around the hall.
Whose voice was that just now?
Noble Prince Shangxie, Shen Zixuan, Xiang Yu, and the others were all looking at each other with puzzled expressions.
Su Yie's Divine Sense swept through, but found no trace of anyone.
He appeared contemplative.
It felt like he had heard that voice somewhere before.
Hold on!
Wasn't that the voice of the woman who claimed to be his mother?
After a long silence, the owner of the voice did not come forth.
"Could there be another enemy?"
Noble Prince Shangxie asked anxiously, and upon hearing this, Han Hai immediately took out his Divine Weapon, ready for battle.
Su Yie gestured with his hand, saying, "Don't bother with her, she must be one of my elders."
Elders?
Upon hearing this, Nan Xiaopao instantly felt nervous.
The others exchanged glances. Su Yie's elders?
Wasn't Su Yie transformed from a mortal? Shouldn't his elders be mortals as well?
How could they fail to detect them?
Could it be that after becoming a god, Su Yie elevated them?
Shen Zixuan frowned deeply; she had accompanied Su Yie to Earth and knew that he had not found his parents yet.
However, since Su Yie had said this, it was not their place to inquire further.
In the following days, Su Yie and Nan Xiaopao thought of many names but failed to find one that satisfied them both.
On this day.
As Su Yie was deeply pondering, he suddenly felt a sharp jolt in his heart.
Instinctively, he swept his Divine Sense across the area.
He saw that in the extraterrestrial sky, deep in the stars, there appeared a cluster of meteorites.
On one of those meteorites stood a Stone Gate, its surface etched with strange patterns.
Su Yie's pupils contracted, and he disappeared from the hall in an instant.
After one breath's time.
He arrived in front of the Stone Gate, looking at it, his brows tightly knitted, he muttered to himself, "The Gate of the Great Dao?"
Instinctively, he took out the Demon Emperor Sword, readying himself for battle.
Why would the Gate of the Great Dao appear out of nowhere here?
Connecting this to the recent appearance of the meteor shower, could there be a connection?
Without hesitation, he threw the Demon Emperor Sword into the Gate, its blade piercing the interior of the Great Dao.
The Gate of the Great Dao shook violently but did not shatter.
It seemed to be the true Gate of the Great Dao indeed.
"Come on! You're too heartless!"
A voice of resentment came from within the Demon Emperor Sword, sounding utterly frustrated.
The Demon Emperor Sword quickly withdrew from the Gate of the Great Dao and returned to Su Yie's hand.
Su Yie paid it no heed, his gaze fixed on the Gate, his mind alert and lost in thought.
Unnatural events often signal trouble!
With a thought, he enveloped the Gate of the Great Dao with his sleeve and then transported himself beside Xia Tianyi.
Xia Tianyi had already returned to the Origin Plane to explore. When faced with Su Yie's arrival, he was quite surprised.
"What? Just had a child, not staying to keep them company?"
Xia Tianyi asked, currently, he was cultivating alone on a desolate planet.
Su Yie directly took out The Gate of the Great Dao and said, "This thing appeared near the Ancient Wilderness. I've always felt it's not right."
As soon as he saw The Gate of the Great Dao, Xia Tianyi's eyelids twitched violently.
The sect of Emperor Su had originally arrived at the Origin Plane through The Gate of the Great Dao, but during that process, something spine-chilling had occurred.
"You mean Three Thousand Royal Power is causing trouble?"
Xia Tianyi asked with a frown, the matter of Su Yie offending the Three Thousand Royal Power was far from concluded.
However, the Three Thousand Royal Power should be unable to control The Gate of the Great Dao while inside The Gate of Misfortune.
Su Yie shook his head and said, "It's because the situation is unclear that I brought it here, to investigate."
Xia Tianyi was speechless, asking, "You're not afraid of dragging me into this?"
"If we die, we can be revived. What are you afraid of?" Su Yie said nonchalantly.
Xia Tianyi fell silent.
Soon, his attention shifted back to The Gate of the Great Dao.
The two circled around The Gate of the Great Dao, starting to investigate what was wrong with it.
After a while.
Xia Tianyi said, "Could it really be a coincidence?"
"Or perhaps, it was attracted by the space-time causality on you."
He had heard that entering The Gate of the Great Dao would contaminate one with causality that leads to an ill fate.
As for why it would be attracted to Su Yie, the reason wasn't hard to guess, as Su Yie had traveled through it more than once.
"Is that so?"
Su Yie was still very suspicious. Although the Karmic Tribulation Technique had already merged into the Great Celestial Devouring Technique, the ability to sense misfortune was still present.
Upon seeing The Gate of the Great Dao, he felt a strong sense of unease.
"Probably..."
Just as Xia Tianyi was about to reply,
at that moment, whoosh! The Gate of the Great Dao suddenly erupted with a terrifying suction force. Su Yie and Xia Tianyi hadn't managed to react before they were sucked into it.
The Gate of the Great Dao trembled thrice, then returned to calm.
After six breaths, it once again erupted with terrifying suction force, frantically absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.
Stars were being pulled in towards it, slowly approaching.
Whoosh!
A figure rushed over, stopping a kilometer away from The Gate of the Great Dao, unaffected by the suction force.
"Is that... the Gate of Origin Time?"
This person exclaimed in shock, his words filled with terror.
After speaking, he turned and ran, vanishing without a trace.
...
Su Yie was unable to see, only feeling his body being slammed repeatedly, the world spinning around him.
Fortunately, he had swiftly deployed the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su and was completely unharmed.
With a loud thud, he felt himself hit the ground. The surface below was dozens of times harder than the ground of the Ancient Wilderness. Then, he heard another sound of something crashing down.
It was probably Xia Tianyi.
Brother.
I'm sorry, I really dragged you into this.
Su Yie felt guilty in his heart. At this moment, his vision returned.
This was an immense world of thunder and lightning, the sky covered by thunderclouds, the earth stretching endlessly without any plants or water in sight.
He flew out from the bottom of the pit and found Xia Tianyi lying in a large pit hundreds of meters away.
At that moment, Xia Tianyi looked dirty and bloodied, appearing extremely wretched.
But since his body was not shattered to pieces, it meant the injuries were not too serious.
For someone with Xia Tianyi's level of cultivation, reconstituting the flesh was merely a matter of thought.
Xia Tianyi's injuries rapidly healed as he slowly stood up, his gaze turning towards Su Yie, eyes filled with resentment.
Su Yie, seeing this, averted his gaze and raised his voice to ask, "Where are we?"
Xia Tianyi rolled his eyes and replied, "Obviously inside The Gate of the Great Dao."
The Gate of the Great Dao housed countless space-time planes. What had just happened occurred too quickly, so swiftly that he was caught off guard and unable to teleport out.
Su Yie was different, relying on Emperor Su's Divine Outfit; he deliberately followed down, wanting to see what kind of plot was unfolding.
