Fate-Defying Demon Emperor
Chapter 927: Offering a Pillow When Sleep Arrives
In the Imperial Study Room, when Su Han arrived, there were already three people present.
Eunuch Sun waited outside for Su Han, while inside, the Flying Immortal Great Emperor and the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince were present.
At this moment, the Flying Immortal Great Emperor was still busily approving memorials, handling state affairs, while the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince observed and learned beside him.
The arrival of Su Han did not make them stop their activities; they continued handling state affairs.
To the Flying Immortal Great Emperor, Su Han was merely the demonic embryo of the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince, and naturally, there was no need to say more, while Su Han multi-tasked, controlling the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince and maintaining his own mind, without rushing to speak.
After a full three hours, the Flying Immortal Great Emperor finished the state affairs, put down the red brush, washed his hands, and took a cup of freshly brewed tea from Eunuch Sun.
“Crown Prince, the black demon they speak of should be your demonic embryo!”
The Flying Immortal Great Emperor ignored Su Han and instead spoke to the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince.
The Flying Immortal Great Emperor was no fool. Although the Flame Calamity Saint’s three suspicions had flaws, he knew that Su Han was indeed the demonic embryo of the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince, possessing a strong demonic nature, so becoming a demon cultivator was not surprising.
The only surprising thing was the saintly tribulation thunder, which is a punishment of the Heavenly Dao that many Imperial Sons and Daughters cannot attract, yet though the thunder is perilous, it also proved his innate talent.
This indicated that Su Han’s innate potential might be above that of the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince. However, Su Han had already become a demonic embryo, which was somewhat a pity, but the Flying Immortal Great Emperor did not regret it.
“Father Emperor, the black demon is indeed the demonic embryo. After entering the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land, I was with the demonic embryo!”
Su Han controlled the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince and spun a seamless lie.
This lie had been prepared by Su Han long ago and had been checked repeatedly for flaws, ensuring there were none before using it.
With the memory inheritance from many gods and demons, fabricating a lie was naturally effortless for Su Han. At this moment, saying it to the Flying Immortal Great Emperor, he had no suspicions, after all, he had never entered the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land and was not much knowledgeable about its inside.
“I had speculated at the time, which is why I severed one of the Flame Calamity Saint’s arms to prevent him from further entanglement. Although there is no direct evidence now, under the guidance of public opinion, your demonic embryo has still become the primary suspect.”
“You already know the news of the New Demon-Slaying Alliance, temporarily let the demonic embryo stay here, and do not go out, lest it be targeted.”
The Flying Immortal Great Emperor explained the reasoning behind that decisive strike.
If he hadn’t acted decisively, this matter might still entangle for some time, making it even more passive later. Although there were suspicions now, without evidence, they were just empty words, so the Flying Immortal Great Emperor was not afraid.
“Crown Prince, you rarely come out. In these two days, I will take you to court to meet the civil and military officials, lest you have secluded for too long and everyone forgets you.”
“Now that your demonic embryo has also broken through to the Saint Realm, three days from now, I will take you and the demonic embryo into the Myriad Virtual Realm to help you consolidate your connection with the demonic embryo and enhance the demonic embryo’s strength.”
The Flying Immortal Great Emperor had long planned this and now revealed his thoughts.
“Thank you, Father Emperor!”
The Heavenly Sword Crown Prince respectfully saluted, without any objection. As for Su Han, at this moment as the demonic embryo, he naturally had no authority to speak, and the Flying Immortal Great Emperor called him over only to take a closer look.
Unfortunately, Su Han’s thousand changes and transformations were too wondrous, even the Flying Immortal Great Emperor struggled to see through, especially since Su Han had incorporated some of his own characteristics after impersonating the Nineteenth Prince, making it even harder for the Flying Immortal Great Emperor to discern.
The Heavenly Sword Crown Prince was to continue learning with the Flying Immortal Great Emperor, so he permitted Su Han to leave the Imperial Study Room.
“Three days later, enter the Myriad Virtual Realm again!”
After returning to the Tianxing Hall, Su Han regained himself, his eyes shining with a pleasant glow.
Although the Myriad Virtual Realm was not as good as the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land, it was also a cultivation treasure land, and even the first holy ground in the hearts of countless sword cultivators.
This identity as the Nineteenth Prince, still primarily focusing on sword cultivation, now that he had broken through to the Saint Realm, he also needed stronger sword intent and swordsmanship.
Moreover, last time in the Myriad Virtual Realm, he only visited three opportunity sites, and there were many more opportunity sites and regions left unexplored, given the chance this time, he naturally wanted to explore thoroughly.
Furthermore, this time entering as the demonic embryo, led by the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince, it would be more convenient for Su Han, allowing him to explore the whole Myriad Virtual Realm, possibly gaining unexpected rewards.
“The Flying Immortal Great Emperor knowing my Black Demon identity is also good, as it allows him to shield me from more dangers. With such a big tree around, I won’t have much danger temporarily.”
Su Han knew that the Black Demon identity could fool others but not the Flying Immortal Great Emperor, who was convinced that he was the demonic embryo of the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince and understood his talent and potential.
When the Flying Immortal Great Emperor slashed toward the Flame Calamity Saint, Su Han had guessed it, but he was not worried because he knew the Flying Immortal Great Emperor currently stood on his side.
As long as his true identity was not exposed, even if he committed a grave mistake, the Flying Immortal Great Emperor would not be overly punitive, having the Heavenly Sword Crown Prince in front.
However, Su Han also understood that the more the Flying Immortal Great Emperor indulged him now, the deeper the hatred would be once the truth was revealed, but Su Han had no way back, he must tread this path to the end.
The only way to save himself is through efforts to become stronger; only by mastering immense power can he fear no threats, not even the Flying Immortal Great Emperor or Gods and Demons in front, Su Han dared to act.
“Pity I didn’t collect several Saint corpses, otherwise, through devouring and refining, I could probably break through again.”
Su Han lamented that in the ninth region, the Immortal Peach Tree killed many Saints, even the Tai Mountain King with quasi-Imperial power. If he had been bolder and rushed out to collect bodies, he might have reaped more.
Now, with no strong individuals to devour, merely relying on self-cultivation makes it tough to break through. This is one of the major traits of the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art.
However, the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land had ended, and he temporarily had no means to acquire Saint corpses, so breaking through realms had to be postponed until he exited the Myriad Virtual Realm, then figuring out ways against the New Demon-Slaying Alliance might yield substantial gains.
“Your Highness, Wei Wenzheng requests an audience!”
At this moment, a guard reported the visit of Wei Wenzheng from Wei Residence.
Wei Residence!
A glint flashed in Su Han’s eyes, instructing the guard to invite Wei Wenzheng in.
“Your Highness, my father invites you to the residence for a discussion; there’s an important matter to deliberate!”
Wei Wenzheng respectfully saluted and stated his purpose.
The Mysterious Great Sword Saint seeks me?
Seems the news from the Imperial Study Room has already spread, quite swiftly.
I was just troubled over breaking through, and unexpectedly, a solution appears with utmost timing!
