Ke Family’s Crown Prince stood as if struck by lightning, unable to fathom that such humiliating words could come from his dignified and majestic father’s mouth.
Indeed, he was the old fellow who could still keep his composure during the last massacre.
He found it hard to imagine what it would take to lure him out of the Dragon Lair and truly engage in a life-and-death battle with someone.
Aside from waiting for the old man to die a natural death, he seemed to have no other opportunity to inherit the Dragon Lair.
Nanyang Treasure Land.
Even as the entire Seven Sects immersed themselves in an excited atmosphere, Shen Yi still returned alone to the quiet hall.
In the eyes of other cultivators, it was the South Hong Seven Sons regaining their lost dignity, but to him, it was merely slaying a Mid Heavenly Realm Dragon Demon. With the Dragon King’s son still alive, there wasn’t much difference from before.
Such flashy stuff can’t kill anyone.
Shen Yi sat cross-legged, calming his previously turbulent emotions.
There had been no turn for the better regarding Lady Qinghua’s affair, but on the bright side, it had attracted most of the Immortal’s attention. Moreover, although the Immortal Position was not his, after all, it was Qinghua’s Demon Soul that had seized the Yin God originally.
But he could take control of that Golden Body at any time. On second thought, there seemed to be no difference.
He might also have the chance to glimpse the true form of the Immortal Court in advance and perhaps use it to aid his cultivation later on.
"Moreover, an Immortal Position that can be granted so easily can also be taken back at any time, which isn’t very interesting. It’s still more reassuring to rely on my own cultivation," Shen Yi mused with a raised eyebrow, taking out the dragon corpse as usual.
Having experienced this banquet, he had gained a greater understanding of Heavenly Realm cultivators. For example, Hall Master Ke Shisan, the strongest of them, was still a lot weaker than Ke Family’s Crown Prince, obviously remaining at the early stages of the Heavenly Realm.
This was precisely why Shen Yi was so determined to slay that demon.
As long as Ke Shisan advanced to the Mid Heavenly Realm, within the South Hong territory, except for the South Dragon King or a combined effort of the eldest sons from both the Ke and Qi families, no one could pose a life-threatening danger to him.
"But relying solely on the Town Stone is not a long-term solution," Shen Yi sighed softly, summoning Ke Shisan and infusing him with Blood River while falling into contemplation.
With the support of two Immortal Laws and five Dao Soldiers, his power was comparable to that of a cultivator in the early stages of the Heavenly Realm. Moreover, his foundation was relatively stable, not like the second prince, who had just broken through and was considered subpar.
If he could further deduce the two Immortal Laws, perhaps he could reach the power level of the Mid Heavenly Realm.
However, his own Boundary was the most troublesome part.
Shen Yi did have some ideas, likely related to the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, but as it involved Divine Skills, only by sending in Great Demons from the Unity Realm Stage could there be any significant change.
Where was he supposed to find so many Unity Realm Stage Great Demons?
One could tell from the sudden emergence of the reputation of the Ten Thousand Demon Hall that they weren’t fools; after being killed a couple of times, they would realize something was wrong. They wouldn’t just flee for their lives, they would actively present themselves for the taking.
Shen Yi shook his head, turning his attention to Ke Shisan before him.
The East Hall Master had absorbed all of the Blood River and consumed seven pieces of Demon Origin, yet still kept his eyes tightly closed.
"If you like playing dead, you can continue to do so in the Dao Palace at your leisure, and I’ll find a new Hall Master," Shen Yi said indifferently.
"Heh heh... This subordinate offers gratitude to my lord," Ke Shisan said sheepishly as he opened his eyes. In an instant, a fresh and robust aura spilled from him. With the help of the second prince, a Mid Heavenly Realm Dragon Demon, he unsurprisingly crossed the threshold that had been just a step away.
What was once a Return to Void Realm little Dragon Descendant had, in a short time, become a terrifying existence with power on par with the leading dragon sons of the two families.
But the East Hall Master’s face showed no joy, only fear.
His master had temporarily dealt with the trouble of the Southern Dragon Palace and captured so many Great Demons. His hands were undoubtedly very full.
With plenty of wealth and leisure, based on Ke Shisan’s understanding of his master, it was highly probable that his master would not choose to wander around, but rather...
The next moment, both Yue Tianji and Ke Shisan were forcibly pulled into the panel!
Shen Yi closed his eyes in turn, as the immense Demon Lifespan Years from the Ten Thousand Demon Hall frantically poured into Shenyue Zhenqingtian.
[In the first year, you, along with two Hall Masters, closely felt the treasure mountain within you, becoming more like a true Shen Yue. This Azure Sky had fully accepted your existence, and now, you could no longer resist harboring bad intentions towards it.]
