System's Super Sect-Chapter 734 - 729, Inevitable Trend, Demon Race Submits

A hundred-meter Flood Dragon, piercing through the clouds.

A fierce Flame Tiger, treading the earth.

Yet, even such overwhelming presence seemed somewhat superficial in front of Wen Ping, in front of the Condemner.

When the three Demons arrived, Xiang Ling, the Demon King of the Earth Race, immediately stood behind Shifeng.

Clearly, Xiang Ling of the Earth Race supported Shifeng.

While Jiang Xian of the Water Race stood behind Li Pass alongside the Demon King of the Sky Race, Tianwu.

Only Huaikong stood alone, with no one beside him.

Wen Ping noticed this but said nothing, merely contemplating how to make Huaikong the Demon Emperor once the Demon Race agreed to become a vassal.

Huaikong becoming the Demon Emperor was somewhat less convincing to the others.

As the throng of Demons assembled, Huaikong spoke.

"Since everyone is here, let’s begin."

The "voting session" officially commenced, with descendants of three Demon Empresses and the Demon Kings of three tribes gathered.

Before anyone made a statement, Shifeng took the lead.

Shifeng declared resolutely, "If the Demon Race wants to become stronger, we can no longer cling to this land. Now that the Human Race experts favor us, we must seize this opportunity. Today, the Human Race dares to invade the Demon Realm; tomorrow, they might directly reach the Demon Emperor Lake. By then, we will have nowhere to retreat!"

"Since the Demon Secret Realm is destroyed and the Demon Race has no inheritance, why not take a gamble like the Demon Emperor did." The burly man transformed from the Celestial Flame Tiger followed suit.

White Flood Dragon Jiang Xian responded angrily, "So that’s why you’re willing to be the dogs of the Human Race?"

"A Demon who dares to kill his own brothers and betray the Demon Race is capable of anything," Tianwu chimed in.

Seeing the argument rise, Wen Ping raised his hand to stop the Demons from speaking.

"I’m not here to listen to your squabbles. If you’re unhappy with each other, fight it out later. Right now, your Sect Leader only wants one opinion from you: whether or not you wish to become vassals of the Immortal Sect. Of course, let me clarify one thing first: becoming a vassal of my Immortal Sect allows you to receive much, but you must also give in equal measure."

Wen Ping surely wouldn’t treat vassals as allies.

What should be taken must still be taken.

White Crystal, celestial materials, these are abundant among the Demon Race; they can easily provide enough for the Immortal Sect’s building upgrades.

Huaikong followed up, "The predecessor behind Sect Leader Wen will help our entire Demon Race break the limits of our bloodline and open a path to greater power. All we need to do is submit. Once we submit, it means we can have the help of Earth Unrestricted experts. Everyone, what’s your decision? Please make it."

After Huaikong spoke, the Demons looked at each other, occasionally whispering.

Shifeng was still the first to cast a vote in agreement.

Naturally, Celestial Flame Tiger Xiang Ling followed.

Huaikong also raised his hand in agreement.

Out of the six votes, three were cast in favor.

Only Li Pass, Tianwu, and Jiang Xian remained unmoving.

At this moment, the Great Demons on the periphery also began to discuss, weighing the pros and cons.

Seeing this, Wen Ping knew a push was needed; just giving them hope was not enough—a vision of the future must be painted.

"Wait!"

Wen Ping’s sudden stop caused Shifeng and Huaikong to falter.

Li Pass and the others were puzzled too, but they pondered far more than Shifeng and the others.

Wen Ping glanced at all the Demons around, then continued, "Before the voting ends, I have one more statement to make. The Immortal Sect will become even stronger in the future; I hope when our sect emerges from the Heaven and Earth Lake, you will not be as weak as you are now. What the predecessor behind me offers is earth-shattering fortune; if you don’t dedicate yourselves to cultivation and drag down my Immortal Sect, I have the right to revoke your vassal status!"

Wen Ping knew those present were Great Demons who had lived for hundreds of years, sharp-minded. If he spoke of any visions of the future, they might not believe him.

So Wen Ping went against the norm.

Upon hearing Wen Ping’s words, Huaikong’s expression gradually turned serious.

He believed Wen Ping.

Because when he met Wen Ping earlier, the strongest in the Immortal Sect was merely at the Body Refining Realm, without the ability to make the Hundred Sects Alliance helpless.

Immediately, Huaikong promised, "Sect Leader Wen, rest assured, our Demon Race will certainly not drag down the Immortal Sect!"

The two Demons, Shifeng, nodded as well, promising to devote themselves to cultivation.

Seeing Wen Ping’s strong confidence, Li Pass’s heart began to waver too.

Becoming a vassal was already inevitable; with Shifeng’s trio nodding, if the three persisted further, the Black Wings man might have to take action.

"This king will certainly not drag down the Immortal Sect!"

After long hesitation, Li Pass finally led the agreement vote.

Though Jiang Xian and Tianwu were displeased, in the face of overwhelming trends, they could only choose to agree.

As all six Demons nodded, a prompt of task completion echoed in Wen Ping’s ear.

But now, Wen Ping had no time to claim the task reward, for all Demons were prostrating on the ground, chanting the words "Sect Leader Wen."

Vast heavens and earth.

Hundreds of thousands of Great Demons prostrating.

A hundred-meter giant tiger.

A kilometer-long giant python.

Even Wen Yan’s Flood Dragon was among them.

In the past, they only revered the Demon Emperor; today, there was an addition of Wen Ping.

At that very moment, an invisible force suddenly descended from the skies.

Boom!

It surged directly into Wen Ping’s body, then flowed towards the Meridian Gate.

Lower Realm of Mountain Suppression!

Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression!

Finally stabilizing at Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression!

"Hmm?"

Wen Ping was somewhat bewildered.

The system explained, "By gaining the submission of the Demon Race, you share in the Demon Race’s fortune. With fortune bestowed, naturally, your realm rises too."

Wen Ping exclaimed joyfully, "There’s actually such clarity?"

The system explained, "This benefit applies only when races submit."

"An unexpected delight... saved me a lot of time."

Wen Ping said and looked at the many members of the Demon Race around, joy emanating from his heart.

Wen Ping said, "Rise, all of you."

The demons rose!

The momentum was unparalleled, far surpassing the spectacle of a thousand armies clashing.

"Since the Demon Race has become vassals, henceforth you may freely enter and exit East Lake. Similarly, you can walk freely on any land of the Immortal Sect. But remember, as long as no one offends you on our land, you cannot offend others. If anyone breaks this rule, think about the consequences yourself..."

After speaking, Wen Ping looked at the demons.

The demons also stared intently at Wen Ping.

"Right, whatever happens within your Demon Race, this Sect Leader will not interfere. Everything will be decided by your new Demon Emperor!"

As soon as Wen Ping said this, Li Pass, Jiang Xian, and other demons all breathed a sigh of relief.

They were afraid of the Immortal Sect controlling them.

From now on, the Demon Race must obey the Immortal Sect.

"And the new Demon Emperor?"

Li Pass and Shifeng asked simultaneously.

Because both of them were comparable to Half-Step Earth Unrestricted experts.

Logically, the Demon Emperor should be one of them.

Wen Ping glanced up and down at the two demons, and Li Pass’s hearts tightened. They were both wondering who would be appointed as the Demon Emperor? But in the end, Wen Ping’s gaze settled on Huaikong, which left the two demons a bit confused, even unbelieving. "The new Demon Emperor... Huaikong, do you accept?"

"Me?"

Huaikong was stunned.

His strength was nowhere near that of any Great Demon present.

If it weren’t for the Demon Emperor’s bloodline, he wouldn’t even be qualified to stand here.

Why did Wen Ping choose him?

Wen Ping firmly said, "Yes, it’s you. From today, the position of Demon Emperor is yours."

"Why?" Before Huaikong could ask, Li Pass spoke up.

Li Pass looked at Huaikong, feeling dissatisfaction for the first time.

Of course, there was also doubt.

Wen Ping naturally didn’t want to explain, because he had his reasons; explaining would be incomprehensible to Li Pass.

Wen Ping said, "If you want to know why, come ask me after your strength surpasses Earth Unrestricted... Shifeng, the same goes for you."

Shifeng nodded, though he was unwilling in his heart, at this moment he didn’t dare say anything against it.

If nothing can be done, he could only console himself.

Letting Huaikong be the Demon Emperor, at least it’s better than letting Li Pass.

"Your Highness the Demon Emperor!"

"Your Highness the Demon Emperor!"

...

Suddenly, the roars of beasts and dragons echoed through the skies.

Even at a distance of a hundred miles, one could hear the commotion here.

The succeeding matters Wen Ping did not concern himself with, nor did he watch the scenes.

Wen Ping just opened the system map to find the section on vassal forces.

At this moment, the three nests of the Demon Race had already become affiliated territories of the Immortal Sect. Each lake had the power to build, but of course, there’s only one upper limit.

That is to say, if a new building is constructed at Demon Emperor Lake, the other two places cannot construct anything.

"Let’s go with Demon Emperor Lake then."

Demon Emperor Lake is close to East Lake, easy to manage, and easy to control.

Open the building list.

Wen Ping’s gaze locked onto the Demon Immortal Inheritance.

Today, upon closer inspection, Wen Ping realized it was a gigantic statue.

Several hundred feet tall, though a statue, it was lifelike.

Besides the absolutely beautiful face, Wen Ping first noticed the strange body — human upper half, snake lower half!

"Could this be the Lady Nuwa?"

Wen Ping was shocked.

The system responded, "Demon Race’s Nuwa. She is the Demon Ancestor of the Demon Immortal lineage!"

"It really is." Wen Ping didn’t know what to say.

Then, Wen Ping read the description of the building.

In simple terms, by worshiping in front of the Nuwa Statue, one could obtain the Demon Immortal inheritance.

Of course, there’s no limitation.

It could be the method of condensing a Demon Pill, or other Demon Immortal divine techniques.

However, the most basic building only has the inheritance of the Demon Pill condensation method.

At the end of the description, there is an interesting detail about the Nuwa Statue: it gives the purest inheritance to the first demon who kneels before it.

The specific inheritance wasn’t detailed, indicated as random, not constrained by the building level.

Needless to say, this first worship slot he would surely assign to Huaikong, after all, he is the Demon Emperor, and some special privilege must be given.

Then, Wen Ping began to consider where this Nuwa Statue should be erected.

Pondering over the map, Wen Ping decided to place it at the Demon Ancestor Cliff.

That place is now a wasteland, making it just right to erect the Nuwa Statue there.

After closing the system panel, Wen Ping looked at Huaikong.

At this moment, the worship for the new Demon Emperor had already concluded, and Huaikong’s impassioned speech was also nearing its end.

Once all this ended, Wen Ping had the intention to leave, but before doing so, he called Huaikong over and instructed: "Huaikong, from today on, the Demon Race will be managed by you. If there are any issues, you can come to East Lake to find me... And one more thing, tomorrow at midnight, go to the Demon Ancestor Cliff. The new inheritance of the Demon Emperor will rise there, and then, you must be the first to kneel with your Demon Body."

The latter sentence was secluded by Wen Ping using spiritual power to ensure only Huaikong could hear.
