Becoming Great Emperor by Playing Game-Chapter 384: Who Is Truly the Demon?

"A person from the Demon Dao?" Chen Lan turned back in confusion.

He observed the situation outside with his own eyes, unaware that the one imprisoned was from the Demon Dao. Why should this concern them?

"Why rescue them?" Chen Lan asked indifferently. He wasn’t someone who meddled in affairs that brought him no benefit. Why would he undertake such an action?

"Because Lord Ye once said that if we encounter a demon in trouble, we should assist them to the best of our abilities," Li Chunqiu stated truthfully.

Chen Lan was taken aback. Did I say that?

He frowned slightly. Could it be that his first life was connected to the Demon Race?

Suddenly, his pupils contracted as he recalled the title from his first life, Celestial Domain Demon Emperor. It contained the word "Demon." Could it refer to the Demon Race?

He gazed out the window, deep in thought, and after a moment spoke solemnly, "But there are so many Taoist Saints. Can we really rescue this person from the Demon Dao from their grasp?"

For now, he was unsure of the opponent’s strength. If these three were comparable to Yang Jian, it would be a tough battle. If he used the Divine Bone, perhaps victory was possible, but he was not suited to use the Divine Bone.

He had only used it once in the upper realm, and it had already drawn Yu Chengdong and Mu Beixi. Fortunately, those two had a grudge against Ye Long. If they held a grudge against him, his identity would certainly be exposed.

He couldn’t expose his identity, no matter what. He hadn’t yet reached the strength to stand independently.

He knew that the enemies he had to face were not just Taoist Saints, but also the Dao Emperor!

"If the two from Luoyun Country don’t act, we can handle killing these three Taoist Saints." Li Chunqiu spoke with boldness. Merely three Taoist Saints, he could kill two of them alone, leaving the remaining one to Lord Ye.

"Hmm? Seems like we won’t have to make a move after all," Chen Lan suddenly said, leaving Li Chunqiu slightly stunned. He hurried to the window to look outside, and was immediately dumbfounded.

Only to see a young prodigy and an old man standing in the middle of the road, blocking the path of the convoy!

And those two were the same people who had been discovered by Chen Lan’s Divine Sense the previous day at the inn!

"Why are they acting?" Li Chunqiu asked in confusion.

Chen Lan said nothing, he was unsure as well.

...

"Who are you, dare you block our path? Know your place and move aside immediately!"

The old man on the back of the Golden-Winged Roc spoke coldly, his voice ancient and hoarse, as if he had a throat filled with century-old phlegm, making people uncomfortable.

The young man remained silent, drawing a silver sword and raising his head. His cold, sharp eyes stared fixedly at the young man on the back of the giant elephant.

"Liu Qinglian, release Elder She!"

In an instant, an aura erupted from the young man, rising to the skies, shaking the heavens and earth, revealing him to be a genuine Taoist Saint!

Upon hearing this, Liu Qinglian, the young man on the elephant, sneered disdainfully. He pushed aside the two beauties beside him without a second thought and stood up slowly, walking to the elephant’s head to look down at the young man and old man, speaking with a cold sneer:

"I was wondering who it was. Turns out it’s you, the Human Race traitor colluding with the Demon Dao. On the day I razed the Heaven-Connecting Palace, I knew you were still alive. I was thinking of sparing you, but you just walk into your own grave!"

As soon as he spoke, the surrounding crowd erupted in discussion.

"So it’s him, the Holy Son of the Heaven-Connecting Palace, Xu Yu. He still dares to come here? Truly not afraid of death."

"I’ve heard that the Heavenly Saint Heir from the Heaven-Connecting Palace was born with a Sacred Body, the Cyan Lotus Sword Immortal Body, and his Sword Intent reached the heavens. He attained the rank of Taoist Saint in just ten thousand years. To think he would become a traitor to the Human Race and associate with the Demon Dao!"

"Ha, he was born of the Demon Race. His father, the Sect Leader of the Heaven-Connecting Palace, married a Demon woman. A mixed-blood hybrid, that’s all."

"Such people deserve to die. It’s best to kill all the demons altogether!"

Listening to the surrounding discussions, Xu Yu gripped his sword tightly, veins popping as he shouted angrily, "Silence!"

A strike of Sword Qi was unleashed, shockingly cyan-colored, accompanied by strong Sword Intent. It shot towards the crowd, instantly annihilating a loud Great Emperor!

This sword strike frightened everyone into silence!

"Heh, demons deserve to die? The Demon Race never did anything wrong, yet you mercilessly exterminated tens of thousands of people from my sect, killed my parents, and brutally slaughtered my baby sister. You are the real demons!" Xu Yu sneered coldly, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Liu Qinglian.

Seeing this gaze, Liu Qinglian felt a shiver in his heart, feeling a little afraid. But quickly reminded himself that there was no need to fear such trash, especially with so many people around, he immediately regained confidence.

"The Demon Race has deserved death since ancient times. Have you forgotten your past deeds? Had it not been for your attempts to upset the world’s order, had you not nearly caused catastrophe leading to a world collapse, you wouldn’t have fallen to a state where everyone despises and wishes to kill you!" Liu Qinglian growled coldly, turning to the people behind him:

"Gentlemen, this person is here to spout nonsense. He aims to rescue someone from the Demon Dao. Kill him, there’s no need for words."

In an instant, Liu Qinglian’s figure flashed, appearing before Xu Yu, swinging his sword down, yet was swiftly blocked by the old man.

"Holy Son, let this old man handle him. You go rescue Elder She," the old man said calmly.

"Alright!" Xu Yu nodded heavily, darting out swiftly towards the location where the prisoner was held!

Just as he was about to slash open the cage with his sword, a massive palm struck down, blocking his path.

"Did you forget about us?" The lecherous man appeared before Xu Yu, playfully twirling the black hair on his mole with a sleazy grin, while holding a beauty in his arms, her face distorted with fear.

"Disgusting," Xu Yu cursed coldly. He didn’t expect this man to engage in battle while still holding onto a beauty. Truly a lecherous demon.

Yet what also surprised him was that prior to this, he had investigated the three individuals. Among them, this lecherous man was the strongest, the Sect Leader of the Tongdao Sect.

It was known that Tongdao Sect appeared to be a famed righteous sect, but every member inside was a vile person, especially the Sect Leader, who loved to engage in debauchery with the sect’s elders and disciples, and countless women had met tragic ends at their hands.

Despite this, they boast about exterminating all Demon Race individuals from the world; truly outrageous.

"What? You don’t like beauties?" the lecherous man laughed, striking out with a palm.

Xu Yu responded with Sword Qi but was utterly shocked by the man’s subsequent actions.

The man didn’t dodge the Sword Qi; instead, he threw the woman in his arms forward, and she was immediately sliced open by the Sword Qi, dying instantly!

"You!" Xu Yu was shocked beyond measure. He hadn’t expected the man to be so deranged, using his own woman to block the Sword Qi. Utterly depraved!

"Heh, and you say you’re not from the Demon Race? So ruthless, killing a beautiful woman just like that. Today, I shall act as heaven’s agent and kill you, demon!"
