Chapter 1556: Xu San Rises

Facing the hostility of the Demon Emperors, the three ancestors of the Qingtian Sacred Ground were filled with anger, but what could they do?

This was the Demon race, and to the Demon race, they were always outsiders.

In the end, it was the two ancestors of the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Ground who stepped forward, barely protecting the three.

At this time, the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Ground naturally couldn't let other Demon Emperors attack the three ancestors of the Qingtian Sacred Ground.

Otherwise, their Heavenly Dragon Sacred Ground would definitely fall into an extremely awkward situation again.

To put it bluntly, the current Heavenly Dragon Sacred Ground still needed the three ancestors of the Qingtian Sacred Ground.

As for whether the three would betray them, the two ancestors of the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Ground were not worried at all.

To put it bluntly, the three of them were now like stray dogs; besides the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Ground, where else could they go?

Returning to the human race was definitely impossible; the entire human race now viewed them as traitors.

And in the Demon race, besides the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Ground, they also had nowhere else to go.

Therefore, for the Qingtian Sacred Ground, they had no choice and could only be tightly bound to the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Ground.

This was also the reason why the two ancestors of the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Ground stepped forward to speak for the three.

"Fine, let's not talk about this for now. What's next? Should we continue with the plan?"

"Is your brain flooded with water? They already know the plan; acting now is just asking for death, isn't it?"

The Demon race was convinced that the Dao One Sect had seen through their plan.

However, if the Dao One Sect knew what they were thinking, they would definitely be confused.

What do we know? And what kind of plan do you even have?

The Demon Emperors finally chose to give up on continuing the plan. The Dao One Sect had destroyed the Demon race's offensive without even realizing it.

This was something probably no one had expected.

The Demon race on the front lines continued to flee in all directions, while the Dao One Sect had gone completely wild with killing.

Over the course of several days, the demon beasts outside the Ten Thousand Demon Pass either fled or died.

As for the Dao One Sect, they were earning a fortune.

Especially Xu Jie; when he returned to the Dao One Sect to register at the Task Hall, everyone present had a look of seeing a ghost.

Because this guy actually pulled the corpse of a Demon Emperor out of his spatial ring.

"This... are my eyes failing me? Xu Laosan killed a Demon Emperor?"

"It is a Demon Emperor, no doubt, but does Xu Laosan have the ability?"

Zhao Zhengping, Wan Xiang, Shen Xian, and other direct disciples looked at the corpse of the Weixiao Demon Emperor in disbelief.

How could it be? How could this Xu San kill a Demon Emperor? It was simply the biggest joke in the world.

Facing the shock of the crowd, Xu Jie said with a smile.

"Fellow brothers, please forgive me. I, Xu, just had a bit of good luck and luckily managed to kill a Demon Emperor."

Damn it, why is this guy so smug?

Looking at Xu Jie's smug appearance, Zhao Zhengping and the others gritted their teeth in hatred; this person really deserved a beating.

However, with Xu Jie's next sentence, Zhao Zhengping and the others were immediately stunned.

Xu Jie sighed and said with feigned helplessness.

"Sigh, I don't know if I can discuss it with Elder Ye Changqing. Although I couldn't capture this Demon Emperor alive, it is still a Demon Emperor ingredient after all. It would be great if I could get a chance to order a dish."

"Damn..."

Once these words were out, Zhao Zhengping and the others' eyes lit up. Although they knew Xu Jie was blatantly tempting them, they just couldn't resist such temptation.

The previous envy, jealousy, and hatred vanished in an instant. Shen Xian, who was quick-witted and thick-skinned, even went directly to Xu Jie's side, flattering him while massaging his shoulders and pounding his legs.

"Three, what are you saying? You and Elder Ye Changqing are like brothers, and now that you've slain a Demon Emperor ingredient, getting a chance to order a dish is just a matter of reaching out and grabbing it."

Facing Shen Xian's flattery, Xu Jie looked very satisfied.

"That does make some sense. In that case, if there is such an opportunity, I will definitely call you."

"Many thanks, Three."

Shen Xian had absolutely no psychological burden; as a scholar, knowing how to bend and stretch is the right path.

Their Literature Peak emphasizes being smooth and sophisticated.

"Bah, sycophant."

However, others didn't have Shen Xian's realization. Although they also wanted to eat, they couldn't do what Shen Xian did.

They could only look for opportunities in private.

After registering, Xu Jie hurried to the cafeteria.

Upon learning that Xu Jie had obtained a Demon Emperor ingredient, Ye Changqing was shocked. Is this guy this strong now?

After sensing carefully, that's not right; he's still at the Heavenly Human Realm cultivation base. Can he kill a Demon Emperor with this?

It wasn't until he heard Xu Jie recount the course of events that Ye Changqing understood; it turned out he had picked up a bargain.

But then Xu Jie begged Ye Changqing to give him a chance to order a dish.

Saying things like hunting a Demon Emperor isn't easy, not knowing if he'll have this chance again in his life, and that his last wish in this life is to eat a dish he ordered once more.

He said it so miserably, as if he were about to breathe his last in the next second.

Under Xu Jie's pestering and the fact that he really had hunted a Demon Emperor ingredient, Ye Changqing finally nodded and agreed.

With the chance to order a dish, for the next few days, Xu Jie had completely stood up.

Every day, a group of disciples surrounded him; the thick-skinned ones served tea and water, while the thin-skinned ones sent all sorts of things.

Elixirs, treasures, spirit fruits; they sent whatever they had.

For a time, Xu Jie finally felt what it was like to be sought after by thousands.

Under the flattery of many disciples, Xu Jie's life was quite comfortable.

Days passed, and as time went on, some disciples slowly realized something was wrong.

That is, it had already been half a month, and this Xu Jie still had no intention of eating the ordered dish.

Facing the attentiveness of many disciples, Xu Jie always had an expression of "you're not bad, I'll consider it."

In any case, he was just stringing them along.

"What's the situation with this Xu Laosan?"

Even Shen Xian couldn't hold it anymore and said with an ugly expression. Hearing this, Zhao Zhengping on the side sneered.

"Can't you see that? Xu San is stringing you along."

Huh???

That day, Shen Xian could no longer hold back and questioned Xu Jie.

"Xu Laosan, are you actually going to eat this meal or not? Are you saving it for the New Year?"

Facing Shen Xian's breakdown, Xu Jie leaned lazily on a recliner, with one disciple massaging his legs, one massaging his shoulders, and another specifically peeling spirit fruits.

As for Xu Jie, he glanced at Shen Xian nonchalantly and said unhurriedly.

"Shen Xian, I am very satisfied with your recent performance, but I don't like the tone you just used."

"Damn you, it's been over half a month; are you going to eat this meal or not?"

Seeing Xu Jie acting so arrogant, Shen Xian completely lost it and said through gritted teeth.

It had been nearly a month, and this guy still hadn't eaten the meal. Are you addicted to this, damn it?
