Chapter 13 - The Terror of the Demon Emperor's Son! The Divine Dao Realm Shadow Guard!

Chapter 13  The Terror of the Demon Emperor’s Son! The Divine Dao Realm Shadow Guard!

“Jie jie jie…”

A burst of eerie laughter echoed in the air. Moments later, a new group of figures appeared from all directions. Leading them was an old man whose aura was unfathomably deep—clearly another expert at the Nether Sea Realm.

“Xuan Yin Old Freak!”

Elder Silvermoon and Elder Guizang’s faces turned grave upon seeing him. The man at the forefront was none other than the Lord of the Xuan Yin Sacred Sect.

The people following him were all elite experts of the Xuan Yin Sacred Sect.

“Xuan Yin Old Freak, you actually have the guts to show yourself?”

Elder Silvermoon said coldly.

“Why wouldn’t I dare?”

The Xuan Yin Sect Master grinned, “Young friend Ye Chen’s sect is in trouble, so I came to offer aid. What’s wrong with that?”

“You two sacred grounds joined forces to bully the Cangyun Dao Sect. Isn’t that a bit excessive?”

He was full of confidence. Even though he had to face the two great sacred grounds, their actual sect masters hadn’t come in person. With his strength, he was confident he could retreat safely.

The Xuan Yin Sect Master had high hopes for Ye Chen. The boy was remarkably talented—humble in origin, but his cultivation progress was astonishing. Ye Chen had once helped his daughter, an act the Sect Master never forgot.

But more importantly, it was for the future of the Xuan Yin Sacred Sect. In his view, Ye Chen would eventually soar to great heights if given time.

Forming a bond early with such a heaven-blessed genius could ensure a boundless future for the Xuan Yin Sect.

“Hehe.”

The Sect Master was brimming with confidence. With ample preparations and having allied with internal forces of the Cangyun Dao Sect, they were ready to handle the crisis.

“Dao Master of Cangyun, rest assured. We’ve come at your disciple’s invitation, just to help.”

He spoke with a smile.

But what met him were faces dark with fury.

Qin Canghai was on the verge of exploding.

Help?

The problem had already been resolved!

Now, by acting recklessly and killing disciples from Silvermoon Sacred Ground, they were throwing the Cangyun Dao Sect back into the fire!

And worse—Ye Chen had invited outsiders?

Even if the Demon Emperor’s Son hadn’t intervened, once the Xuan Yin Sect got involved, what next?

Without a Divine Path Realm expert in residence and already having offended the Wujin Demon Palace, wouldn’t the Cangyun Dao Sect eventually have to submit to the Xuan Yin Sacred Sect—and be devoured?

This wasn’t help. It was leading wolves into the house!

The more Qin Canghai thought about it, the angrier he got. Just then, Ye Chen spoke up.

“Master, the Cangyun Dao Sect is saved! There’s no need to get emotional—this is just what your disciple should do.”

He smiled, thinking it was the most charming smile ever. After all he’d done to rescue the sect from crisis, surely the entire sect would rally behind him, right?

Even Senior Sister Yingluo…

As Ye Chen sank into his fantasies…

A thunderous roar suddenly exploded.

“You foolish boy! You’ve harmed our Dao Sect!!”

Qin Canghai was livid.

His roar shook the entire sacred ground.

“Master, I…”

Ye Chen froze, completely confused.

“Kneel!”

“Do you even realize what you’ve done?”

“Our sect’s crisis had already been resolved by the Demon Emperor’s Son!”

“And now you go and kill disciples from Silvermoon Sacred Ground? Are you trying to restart the conflict?”

Qin Canghai was utterly furious.

“What?”

Ye Chen was dumbfounded.

Resolved?

How could that be?

He had clearly been told that the two sacred grounds were still oppressing the Cangyun Dao Sect, leaving them on the brink of collapse…

And Demon Emperor’s Son?

That name sparked a hint of dread in his heart.

At the same time, the Xuan Yin Sect Master heard those three words and felt his heart sink.

A deep sense of foreboding welled up within him. In the vast expanse of the Three Thousand Great Worlds, those who could be called “Emperor’s Son” were vanishingly rare.

Combined with the attitude of Elder Silvermoon and Elder Guizang, both wearing amused, half-smiling expressions…

As they approached, there wasn’t a trace of hostility—rather, it felt like they were watching a performance?

At that moment, a calm voice sounded behind them.

“Quite the lively gathering you have here.”

The crowd parted, and a figure in brocade robes slowly stepped forward. Su Ming’s brows seemed to glow faintly with divine light. His aura was otherworldly and ethereal.

Like a celestial being, he entered everyone’s sight. Walking beside him was the Cangyun Saintess—a perfect pair. The moment the Xuan Yin Sect Master saw this figure, his face changed drastically.

“Demon Emperor’s Son!”

Thud!

He fell to his knees instantly. His face turned pale as a buzz filled his head.

What was going on?

Why was the Demon Emperor’s Son here?

“Xuan Yin Sacred Sect, huh? Quite the reputation.”

Su Ming’s tone was calm, but his words made the Xuan Yin Sect Master tremble.

“How dare the Xuan Yin Sacred Sect!”

“The Emperor’s Son is here, yet you didn’t announce yourself and barged in with a group. Are you plotting against the Emperor’s Son?”

Elder Silvermoon barked sharply.

“I…”

The Sect Master was stunned.

He had no idea the Emperor’s Son was here!

Ye Chen had only told him two sacred grounds were taking action together—he had no idea this was authorized by the Wujin Demon Palace!

“Emperor’s Son, there must be some misunderstanding—I truly didn’t know you were here…”

The Xuan Yin Sect Master—a dignified Nether Sea Realm expert—was now trembling with fear, rushing to explain himself.

If he were accused of “plotting to assassinate the Emperor’s Son,” how could the Xuan Yin Sect possibly survive?

“Where is the Shadow Guard?”

Su Ming had no interest in his excuses and said coldly.

Whoosh!

Behind him, the air suddenly distorted as a vortex of light formed. A cloaked, black-robed figure stepped forward. As this figure appeared, a terrifying pressure descended over the entire Cangyun Dao Sect.

In an instant, everyone felt as though a mountain had crushed down on them, forcing them to bow. Whether it was the Dao Master, or the elders of Silvermoon and Guizang Sacred Grounds, all were drenched in sweat.

Shadow Guard!

The most elite and terrifying force of the Wujin Demon Palace!

It was said there were only ten in total, and each one was either at the peak of the Pathwalking Realm—or a Divine Dao level powerhouse!

They reported only to the Emperor himself and obeyed no one but him. Some were even specifically tasked with protecting the Demon Emperor’s Son. They had thought Su Ming only had his usual Demon Armor Guards with him on this trip.

Who would’ve expected he was carrying a Shadow Guard with him?
