Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Demon Emperor directly exploded in front of Ye Chen.
A surging pressure swept out.
Boom —
Instantly, Ye Chen’s subordinates were directly sent flying by the violent energy.
Endless True Qi surged out from Ye Chen’s body.
The True Qi saved all of Ye Chen’s subordinates.
What shocked Ye Chen was that he did not expect that the Demon Emperor would choose to self-destruct.
However, the fact that he chose to self-destruct meant that self-destruction was one of his methods, and the Demon Emperor was definitely still alive.
The Demon Emperor was so powerful. If there was still a glimmer of hope, he would not have chosen to self-destruct. Now that he chose to self-destruct, it meant that the Demon Emperor definitely had other methods.
But now, Ye Chen was not prepared to chase after him. He had to settle the human affairs first.
At this moment, the great demons had all retreated.
Ye Chen looked at Heavenly Demon City.
At this moment, Heavenly Demon City was in a mess.
There were ruins everywhere. Those buildings had been destroyed by the great demons.
On the ground, there was a huge crack.
He looked over and saw that many humans had died. They had just experienced the civil war and the great war between humans and demons. Therefore, many humans had died.
However, many great demons had also died. In the city, there were corpses of great demons.
At this moment, experts came to Ye Chen.
“Greetings, Sect Master!”
“Greetings, Alliance Master!”
“Greetings, Your Majesty!”
Every faction had their own form of address.
Although Ye Chen called himself the Human Emperor, they still had not changed their original form of address.
Ye Chen looked at everyone, his heart incomparably calm.
Although many people had died, Ye Chen knew that his goal should have been achieved. If the demi-humans had not interfered, Ye Chen would have had to forcefully suppress them.
But now, because of the attack of the demons, the human forces were united.
At this moment, Ye Chen spoke.
Ye Chen looked at everyone and said, “Thank you for your hard work.”
Everyone looked at Ye Chen, and Ye Chen continued, “I know that you must be very confused about my ident.i.ty. Since that’s the case, I’ll tell you everything!”
“My name is Ye Chen, and I’m the Human Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom. I’m also called Ye Qingfeng, and I’m the Alliance Master of your Righteous Path Alliance. At the same time, I’m also called Ye Gucheng, and I’m the Sect Master of your Heavenly Demon Sect!”
Everyone looked at Ye Chen in shock.
Even though Ye Chen had said it before, many people still could not believe it.
“Sect leader, what exactly is going on?” A Heavenly Demon Sect’s Transcending Tribulation Realm experts looked at Ye Chen and asked.
Ye Chen continued, “Alright, I’ll start from the beginning!”
“My name is Ye Chen, and I’m just a small cultivator from the Immortal Destiny Holy Land. Last year, I became a Transcending Tribulation Realm expert and began to travel around. By chance, I became the Sect Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect through a marriage tournament.
“However, I don’t wish for the Heavenly Demon Sect to go to war with the Righteous Path Alliance, and I became the Sect Master of the Righteous Path Alliance as the Grandmaster of the Immortal Destiny Holy Land.
“Later on, I inherited the Eastern Imperial Kingdom.
“In other words, your Sect Master, the Alliance Master, and the Emperor are all me!”
Ye Chen looked at everyone and said.
Everyone’s eyes were dull and filled with shock.
At this moment, Ye Chen continued, “Everyone has also seen that on this continent, other than us humans, there are also the demons.
“Moreover, the demi-humans are eyeing us covetously. As humans, we should unite and not engage in civil war.”
At this point, Ye Chen continued, “Do you know why, after becoming the Sect Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect, I still have to become the Alliance Master of the Righteous Path Alliance?”
When he said this, everyone was puzzled.
Other than a few experts, they all seemed to understand.
Grandmaster Void Sword looked at Ye Chen and nodded at Grandmaster Dao Kong.
“So the Alliance Master has ulterior motives!”
“However, this ulterior motive is for the development of our human race,” Grandmaster Dao Kong said.
“However, the Alliance Master is right. Whether it’s the Heavenly Demon Sect or the Righteous Path Alliance, we are all humans. The hatred between us is really insignificant compared to the demons.”
Ye Chen continued, “Because I am the Human Emperor, the Emperor of the human race. I want to lead the human race to prosperity.
“Therefore, I don’t want to see a civil war between the human race and the Heavenly Demon Sect. I have long known about the war between the demi-human race and the human race. I know that it’s only a matter of time before the demi-human race attacks.
“If we have a civil war, how can we fight against the demi-human race?”
“Therefore, I would like to ask if you are willing to put aside the animosity between the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Righteous Path Alliance and Fight for the human race together to resist the demi-human race?” Ye Chen asked as he looked at the humans on the ground.
At this moment, the humans were all looking at Ye Chen.
Whether it was the people from the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Righteous Path Alliance, or the people from the imperial court brought by the humans, all of them looked at Human Emperor Ye Chen.
“I’m willing!”
At this moment, a voice was heard.
A disciple from the Righteous Path Alliance spoke.
Following this voice, voices were heard one after another.
“We are willing as well.”
“We are willing!”
Immediately, the people from the Righteous Path Alliance and the Heavenly Demon Sect spoke out one by one.
However, there were still many people who were still hesitating.
Suddenly, someone looked at Ye Chen and said, “Sect Master, I was chased by the Righteous Path people before and that’s why I joined the Heavenly Demon Sect? Now that you want us to put aside our differences, can you guarantee that the people from the Righteous Path Alliance won’t chase after me?”
At this moment, Ye Chen looked toward the Righteous Path and asked indifferently, “Are you all willing to put aside your grudges from before?”
A Transcending Tribulation Realm expert from the Righteous Path Alliance nodded and said, “I’m willing. I believe in the Alliance Master!”
Ye Chen nodded, then, he looked toward everyone and said, “Since that’s the case, then from now on, there won’t be any Righteous Path or Demonic Path. Regardless of whether it’s the Righteous Path or the Heavenly Demon Sect, they will all belong to my Eastern Imperial Kingdom. I will set the laws governing the cultivation world. If anyone violates them, I will use the situation of the law to punish all of you.”
“Of course, if it’s a personal grudge, I won’t ask!” Ye Chen said.
Ye Chen knew that it was very difficult to use the law to restrict immortal cultivators.
The difficult thing was that there were not that many law enforcers.
However, for the sake of the human race, he had to do this.
If he did not resolve the grudge between the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Righteous Path Alliance, then the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Righteous Path Alliance would probably continue to fight each other.
At that time, the demons would have an opportunity to take advantage of it.
However, the personal feuds between cultivators would be left to them to resolve. He could not interfere, nor could he interfere.
After Ye Chen finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement.
Although there were also many people who were unwilling, under such circ.u.mstances, they could only do so.
If there was another civil war, they would probably be completely exterminated by the demons!
