Chapter 11  Su Ming’s Dominant Decree! A Single Sentence Shakes All! This Man Is Unfathomable!

“It must’ve just been an illusion. After all, this treasure hunt was incredibly fruitful!”

He shook his head and soon revealed a satisfied smile.

“I finally fully activated the Extreme Ice Divine Talisman, and I’ve broken through to the Tongyou Realm. I’m on the verge of stepping into the Dongxuan Realm.”

Ye Chen was inwardly overjoyed.

Aside from his rapid cultivation breakthrough, there was another thing that made him extremely excited—Cangyun Dao Sect was in crisis!

To ordinary sect disciples, a crisis was obviously bad news. But to Ye Chen, it was a golden opportunity to shine.

“Even though the ancestor has passed away, Cangyun Dao Sect still has its heritage. Their strength should not be underestimated…”

“If I can help the sect weather this storm, the Dao Lord will definitely see me in a new light, and the hearts of the sect members will naturally be drawn to me!”

Thinking of this, Ye Chen was full of anticipation.

Born in humble origins with no powerful background, he had to seize every chance to rise and rewrite his fate!

Moreover, a stunningly beautiful face lingered in his mind—one that wouldn’t fade. If he could rescue the sect from this disaster, his relationship with Senior Sister Yingluo might progress even further…

No, I can’t rush. Going back alone won’t do—I need reinforcements!

This thought made Ye Chen anxious.

After all, Cangyun Dao Sect was being attacked by two sacred lands. Though Ye Chen believed in his extraordinary talent, he knew he couldn’t solve this alone. Fortunately, he was a chosen genius blessed with destiny!

Several powerful factions had bet on him; even some ancient monsters favored him!

If he could rope in just two sacred lands or ancient families, they might just be able to handle the sect’s crisis.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Ye Chen took off in a flash in a certain direction—His heart surged with excitement, because soon, the name “Ye Chen” would shake the Three Thousand Great Worlds!

The Next Day – Cangyun Dao Sect

Su Ming arrived with Qin Yingluo, and countless eyes turned toward Qin Yingluo’s graceful figure, their expressions filled with ambiguity and complexity.

After all, Qin Yingluo had spent the entire night by the side of the Demon Emperor’s son. A lone man and woman—what happened didn’t need to be said.

Feeling the unspoken meanings in those gazes, Qin Yingluo opened her mouth but found nothing to say. Even if she explained, no one would believe her.

Strangely enough, she wasn’t particularly upset by their misunderstandings. Normally, she would have immediately clarified to stop gossip. But the events of last night completely changed how she viewed Su Ming. This man wasn’t the arrogant, domineering person Ye Chen had described.

With just a gesture, he could have made her a mere bed warmer, yet he didn’t touch her at all—and even passed down a Heaven-rank cultivation technique to her…

Thinking of this, Qin Yingluo was filled with mixed emotions.

“Emperor’s Son, fine wine and dishes are prepared in the main hall,” Qin Canghai respectfully reported.

“Mm.”

Su Ming responded casually.

They entered the main hall in a single file. Su Ming sat naturally at the head seat, while Qin Yingluo sat beside him like a handmaiden, serving wine and tea, appearing quite obedient.

This made the two girls beside the Demon Emperor’s son—Hongshu and Qingniao—pout with displeasure.

“Go summon the representatives from Silver Moon Sacred Land and Guizang Sacred Land.”

Su Ming took a sip and spoke lightly.

Qin Canghai was startled, then elated.

Was the Emperor’s Son going to stand up for them?

“At once!”

He quickly sent messengers.

Before long, cautious figures entered the hall— the elders and saints from both sacred lands.

“Greetings, Demon Emperor’s Son.”

The four bowed respectfully towards Su Ming.

“Sit,” Su Ming ordered.

“I summoned you for one thing:

Cangyun Dao Sect—I will protect it.”

That one statement—bold and decisive—left no room for doubt.

“This…”

The two sacred lands’ representatives hesitated.

The impulsive Silver Moon Saint wanted to object, but the elder beside him held him back.

At that moment, the elder looked deeply at Su Ming, eyes filled with awe.

“What is this? I can’t seem to see through him anymore!”

The elder was shocked. A master of the Minghai Realm with boundless divine sense, he had met Su Ming just the day before. Back then, Su Ming was deep and mysterious, but still within the elder’s grasp. Now, it was completely different.

Sitting at the head, Su Ming exuded an unshakable, mountain-like aura—his depth unfathomable!

Had he made an enormous breakthrough overnight?

Unbeknownst to the elder, the sect was protected by an isolation array, so he had no idea what had occurred during the night.

But he was filled with dread—This man is terrifying!

Was this really the same Demon Emperor’s son whose Primordial True Demon Heart had once fallen dormant?

In the past, Su Ming was somewhat famous in the Three Thousand Great Worlds, but far from being this powerful. Now it appeared he had merely been hiding his strength all along.

With that realization, the elder decisively chose to yield. They dared not go against the Wuji Demon Palace—it was better to cooperate and perhaps reap future rewards.
