Chapter 303: The Demon Emperor, Chi Qin!
In that moment, the tall figure was secretly changing color, looking intently at Su Yi as if to try and discover something.
Suddenly, the gaze of this figure, who seemed to have sensed something, shifted to the side to Su Tian Que.
"Are you the Demon Emperor of this place?"
Su Tian Que opened his mouth and stared directly at the former. It seemed he wasn't affected by any kind of pressure when facing this Demon Emperor.
Looking at Su Tian Que, the figure asked, "Where are you from?"
"You wouldn't even know if I told you, who are you and what did you send those demon beasts to find us for?" Su Tian Que had an old-fashioned look, his fleshy wings on both sides pressed tightly against his body, arms crossed, and standing straight with his small head raised high, staring at the mighty being and asking.
"Others refer to me as Chi Qin."
The tall figure stared at Su Tian Que and Su Yi, looking back and forth.
"You…"
"Su Tian Que, don't be reckless!"
Before Su Tian Que had a chance to say anything, he was cut off by Su Yi. Su Yi bowed to the middle-aged man in front of him, who claimed to be Chi Qin, and said, "Greetings to the Demon Emperor!"
Su Tian Que muttered to himself quietly, but his voice was scarcely audible, "Demon Emperor? So what…"
Chi Qin's gaze fell on Su Yi. His tall figure was two heads taller than the average height of Su Yi's peers. "Are you the human who saved my child Chi Zu?"
"Exactly, it was only luck that helped us, nothing to boast about!"
Su Yi opened his mouth, although the invisible pressure in his body had been eliminated, the pressure from the surrounding space still existed, with a feeling that could not be felt through the air. Withstanding the pressure, he stood straight without wavering.
"Chi Zu has told me the whole thing. Looking at you, what he said was undoubtedly true, it shouldn't be a lie!"
Chi Qin opened his mouth, not knowing why, there seemed to be a hint of admiration in his red eyes, then he quietly looked at Su Yi and continued, "So, half a month ago, there was an earth-shattering battle outside this place. Some demon beasts saw that some humans had escaped; it should have been you guys, right?"
"…"
When Chi Qin said these words, Su Yi's heart suddenly tightened. In Su Tian Que's limpid eyes, there was a flash of light.
"Is it exposed?"
Su Yi's heart trembled. Could his secret be revealed?
When initially the descendants of the Divine Demonic Sect were obliterated, so many super strong people and Demon Sages waged such a shocking war. As guessed by Su Tian Que, it already drew the attention of the strong demon beasts, therefore the Demon Emperor ordered demon beasts to search for humans around.
Su Yi pondered, wondering what the purpose of Chi Qin's search for the Divine Demonic Sect was.
Su Yi and Su Tian Que had subtle changes in their expressions which were all seen by Chi Qin. He calmly said, "It appears that this big battle is indeed related to you all!"
Su Yi took a deep breath to himself, looked up, and stared at Chi Qin, saying, "I won't hide it from you, it is indeed related to us."
Su Tian Que opened his mouth and pressed close to Su Yi, with a hint of crimson light fluctuating in his eyes. "Are you also related to that big battle?"
Chi Qin gazed at Su Yi and Su Tian Que, his eyes shifting back and forth while his face remained expressionless, giving no indication of his thoughts.
"No need to be anxious, if I wanted to kill you all, you wouldn't be standing in front of me now!" After a moment, a smile appeared on Chi Qin's face as he said to Su Yi and Su Tian Que, "I just want to understand why there are strong people appearing in the Demon Woods, causing a big wave and alarming many powerful demon beasts. Everyone wants to know the reason, I wonder if you two can tell me something about it?"
When Su Yi heard the words, he looked at Chi Qin, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.
Subsequently, Su Yi informed Chi Qin of some information regarding the Divine Demonic Sect. The descendants of the Divine Demonic Sect had gone into hiding in the Demon Woods for many years, yet they were incessantly pursued by their vengeful enemies; most of the powerful ones were killed, and only a few youngsters managed to escape.
Su Yi knew that there was no need for him to hide anything; the news of the great battle would have already spread, and he estimated that the matters of the Divine Demonic Sect could not be hidden either. Chi Qin was looking for himself, so naturally he must have heard something. If he was trying to hide it now, then he would be making a blunder, and all he could do was to tell the truth and accept his fate.
Chi Qin gazed at Su Yi and nodded with a knowing look, "I see. The battle was extraordinary, each side composed of powerful individuals. I was wondering who could possibly cause such a great battle, but it turns out the Divine Demonic Sect is still active in the world!"
Su Yi was surprised that Chi Qin seemed to know about the existence of the Divine Demonic Sect.
"I've lived for thousands of years, so I've heard a lot of things. I have also heard about the Divine Demonic Sect, although not much. I only know that it was a major sect from long ago." Chi Qin spoke up.
"For thousands of years…"
Despite knowing that the world was vastly different from his past life, with many powerful people having long lifespans and some powerful demon species having even longer, Su Yi couldn't help but be shocked as the Demon Emperor stood before him; a man who claimed to have lived for thousands of years, yet still looking like he was in his middle age.
"Young man, you dare to come to see me alone, what is your identity in the Divine Demonic Sect?" Chi Qin looked at Su Yi with interest, the younger human made him feel an indescribable shock.
"To be honest, I'm the new sect leader of the Divine Demonic Sect."
Having arrived here, Su Yi also had plans; the future is yet to be known, so he asked Chi Qin, "The Demon Emperor, why do you want to find us?"
"This news has alarmed many powerful monsters, not just me. Many powerful demon beasts are now looking for you everywhere."
Chi Qin smiled and looked at Su Yi, saying, "It's no wonder you dare to come to find me; you are so young and ambitious. So you are the Sect Leader of the Divine Demonic Sect."
"They are all looking for…!"
Upon hearing Chi Qin's words, Su Yi felt tense in his heart.
Not only is the Demon Emperor looking for someone from Divine Demonic Sect, but there are also many powerful demon beasts around looking for the people from Divine Demonic Sect.
So, even if the Divine Demonic Sect's people managed to escape once, in these Demon Woods, the Divine Demonic Sect's disciples probably would not be able to get away very far and have no way to escape.
Su Yi's mood was heavy. This was the Demon Woods and he was powerless to do anything. With his own strength, he couldn't even protect himself, let alone protect the remaining disciples of the Divine Demonic Sect.
