Chapter 1350
"Ahhhhh!!!"
A miserable scream was emitted from Shi Zhixuan's mouth. Everyone heard this shrill scream and felt a chill throughout their bodies.
Although some felt that Shi Zhixuan was bringing this upon himself, not weighing his own strength before delusionally trying to seize the Evil Emperor Relic from the "Holy Emperor."
But conversely, the "Holy Emperor's" methods were perhaps a bit too cruel.
In the Demonic Sect, there was no lack of cruel methods, such as the Thousand-Mile Soul Lock, the Seven-Needle Spirit Control, and other evil arts.
But compared to the Yin-Yang Curse Seal that Eastern Lord Yanfei had planted on Shi Zhixuan at this moment, the Demonic Sect's evil arts were somewhat insignificant.
Simply because the target was Shi Zhixuan.
Shi Zhixuan might not be as strong as the "Holy Emperor," but based on the speed of his previous strike, it was enough to prove that the Evil King was still that Evil King. An Evil King possessing such strength could not even parry the Yin-Yang Curse Seal.
It was evident that if this Yin-Yang Curse Seal were planted on them, they would definitely be unable to endure it.
Thinking of this, the gazes everyone cast toward Su Xuan again could not help but hold a few more traces of awe.
Shi Zhixuan's wailing lasted for a long time, until his throat was hoarse, before the pain in his body slightly diminished and then disappeared.
(aiee)
After the pain completely disappeared, Shi Zhixuan's entire body was soaked with cold sweat.
He lay on the ground in a powerless state, unable to move.
"Hmph!"
Su Xuan glanced at Shi Zhixuan and did not say much more.
Then, he looked at the many Demonic Sect members again.
Everyone addressed him as Evil Emperor once more.
Although Shi Zhixuan had offended Su Xuan and been planted with the Yin-Yang Curse Seal, he was ultimately forgiven.
Even though he had suffered great torture because of the Yin-Yang Curse Seal, for Zhu Yuyan, this might have been an excellent opportunity to get rid of Shi Zhixuan, but in the end, out of caution, she still did not do so.
Simply because the Evil Emperor was still there, and the Eastern Lord was still there.
The Evil Emperor had just declared that he spared Shi Zhixuan; if she chose to strike and kill Shi Zhixuan at this time, she did not know if she would offend the Evil Emperor.
Zhu Yuyan knew that after Su Xuan became the master of the Demonic Sect and became the "Holy Emperor," the Yin Gui Sect had fallen into an unfavorable situation.
First, Heavenly Monarch Xi Ying and others supported her to serve as the Holy Sect leader, then Bian Bufan offended the "Holy Emperor" with his words, Xi Ying was killed by the Eastern Lord, and Bian Bufan was executed by the "Holy Emperor." She had rashly struck out at the "Holy Emperor," and although she was forgiven, the other party likely still had some opinions about the Yin Gui Sect in his heart.
At this time, she absolutely could not ruin the big picture because of personal grudges.
Let's just let Shi Zhixuan off for the time being.
Anyway, she had already learned from the "Holy Emperor" that Shi Zhixuan's body had defects. Since Shi Zhixuan had not yet recovered to his peak and could not seize the Evil Emperor Relic to resolve the hidden dangers in his body, she would always have a chance to get rid of Shi Zhixuan.
At the same time, temporarily serving Su Xuan as "Holy Emperor" was just Zhu Yuyan briefly following the general trend.
"You won't be able to be this Holy Emperor for long."
Zhu Yuyan thought to herself.
She knew exactly what kind of character the Demonic Sect people had. Perhaps at this moment, Su Xuan, relying on his powerful strength and the help of the Eastern Lord by his side, had temporarily subdued the many Demonic Sect members, making them serve him as the master of the Demonic Sect.
But in the end, this "Holy Emperor's" foundation was too weak.
He was not like Demon Commander Zhao Deyan, who was the Imperial Preceptor of Eastern Turkic and had the entire Eastern Turkic as his backing, nor was he like her, possessing the Yin Gui Sect with its vast influence. The rest of the True Transmission Dao—Pi Chen was the richest man in Luoyang, and the entire underground force of Luoyang was under his command; An Long was also a wealthy merchant with great energy in the Bashu region.
Heavenly Monarch Xi Ying's Emotion-Extinguishing Dao did not have much energy, but Xi Ying was already dead, so it was not worth mentioning.
Compared to these people and these forces, the only thing worth praising about this "Holy Emperor" was his extraordinary martial power.
Although martial power could solve many troubles, it did not mean it could solve everything; there were always some things that could not be achieved by individual power.
Night arrived as scheduled.
It was not suitable for the people of the Demonic Sect's two sects and six paths to all stay in Pi Chen's mansion.
However, they did not leave either.
The Demonic Sect had been passed down for hundreds of years in the world. Even though it was currently suppressed by the righteous path, it was a chaotic time, and the Demonic Sect had taken advantage of the situation to rise and develop a large force.
At this moment, they were scattered throughout Luoyang City.
Not a single person dared to leave Luoyang first.
After all, the Demonic Sect had just returned to unity and fallen under the "Holy Emperor's" command. If the Demonic Sect people all ran away the night after unifying during the day, it would be too disrespectful to the Holy Emperor.
The bright moon hung high. Su Xuan stood quietly in the courtyard, looking down at the flowers in the courtyard, and occasionally looking up to observe the bright moon and stars in the night sky.
A beauty dressed in pink robes walked slowly to Su Xuan's side, carrying tea.
"Lord Holy Emperor, the night is cold and windy, please have a cup of hot tea!"
The woman was Rong Jiaojiao, Pi Chen's daughter.
Her appearance was quite pretty, but the Ancestral Dao's true transmission emphasized dual cultivation and was not a righteous sect, so this Rong Jiaojiao only looked good on the outside; essentially, she was not a proper woman.
And Su Xuan knew that Rong Jiaojiao had another identity: she was a member of the Great Ming Venerable Sect.
She was not Pi Chen's daughter at all; the so-called daughter of Pi Chen was just an identity she used to cover herself. Pi Chen was an ally of the Great Ming Venerable Sect, and because of this, Rong Jiaojiao disguised herself as his daughter.
