Lu Changsheng spent a vast amount of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to temper the bodies of his disciples. The strength of Dugu Aotian's Demonic Ancestor Body now rivals that of a lower-grade Holy Artifact, making Elder Blood Bat's secret technique unable to harm Dugu Aotian in the slightest.
"Run!"
Seeing Elder Blood Bat killed, the remaining disciples of the Blood Sea Palace scattered like rats.
The people from the Valley of Thousand dicines finally breathed a sigh of relief. Discover more content at empire
"Thank you, er, thank you, hero, for your tily rescue."
Although the Valley Master of the Valley of Thousand dicines suspected that Dugu Aotian was also from the Demon Sects, Dugu Aotian had, after all, saved them, so he greeted him with a smile.
Dugu Aotian sheathed his Demon Sword. "Why did the Blood Sea Palace attack your Valley of Thousand dicines?"
"I am not sure myself. Our Valley of Thousand dicines has not offended the Blood Sea Palace, yet we were inexplicably attacked by them."
The Master of the Valley of Thousand dicines was himself puzzled.
"Since the matter here is resolved, I will take my leave."
Dugu Aotian was just passing by and happened to save the Valley of Thousand dicines along the way.
"Please wait, hero. You have shown great kindness to our Valley of Thousand dicines; please stay for a few more days so we can show our gratitude properly. Moreover, we have asked for reinforcents from the Yaochi Holy Land, and their people will arrive in a few days. If the Blood Sea Palace turns back midway, our Valley of Thousand dicines truly lacks the strength to cope with them..."
"I understand."
Dugu Aotian saw their sincerity and thus decided to stay at the Valley of Thousand dicines for a few days.
Three days later, several hundred people from the Yaochi Holy Land arrived, with the Valley Master of the Valley of Thousand dicines personally receiving them.
"We welco Holy Maiden."
The people from the Valley of Thousand dicines were extrely respectful, as the one leading the rescue team to the Valley of Thousand dicines was the Yaochi Holy Maiden!
The Holy Maiden was slender and her eyes were spirited and lively. However, her face was veiled, and the veil was actually a magical treasure that obscured her true appearance.
Elders from the Yaochi Holy Land were also present.
These Elders from the Yaochi emitted terrifying auras, with realms so deep they were unfathomable.
"Is it you?!"
This was Liu Yiyi's first mission leading a team for the Yaochi Holy Land. She had intended to maintain a dignified and serious deanor, upholding the noble status of a Holy Maiden, but to her surprise, she saw Dugu Aotian here and couldn't help but be delighted!
Dugu Aotian had left a profound impression on her.
Even though Dugu Aotian cultivated Demonic Arts, he never did anything evil.
Cultivating Demonic Arts without being eroded in his sense of righteousness was especially rare and precious.
"You are the Yaochi Holy Maiden?"
Dugu Aotian was also taken aback upon seeing Liu Yiyi.
This was the third ti he had encountered Liu Yiyi.
Although Lu Changsheng had long known about Liu Yiyi's identity as the Holy Maiden, he had never ntioned it, and this was the first ti Dugu Aotian knew of her identity.
In that case, Liu Yiyi and Lin Qinghan held similar status.
The accompanying Elders and disciples from the Yaochi Holy Land were all startled.
Their Holy Maiden actually knew soone from the Demon Sects?
An Elder cautioned, "Holy Maiden, you are inexperienced in the ways of the world. This person practices Demonic Cultivation and is most likely from the Demon Sects. It would be best not to get too close to him."
"My affairs are none of your concern."
Liu Yiyi knew that Dugu Aotian was no evildoer.
"So the hero Dugu knows the Yaochi Holy Maiden? That explains why you saved our Valley of Thousand dicines."
The Valley Master of the Valley of Thousand dicines suddenly realized.
"He saved the Valley of Thousand dicines?"
The people from the Yaochi Holy Land began to reconsider their impression of Dugu Aotian.
If not for Dugu Aotian, by the ti the people from the Yaochi Holy Land arrived, the Valley of Thousand dicines might have been reduced to ruins.
Liu Yiyi blinked, "Do you know why the Blood Sea Palace attacked the Valley of Thousand dicines?"
Dugu Aotian shook his head. "I just happened to co across the scene."
Liu Yiyi fell into thought. "The Blood Sea Palace has attacked several Sects affiliated with our Yaochi Holy Land one after another, but no one knows their purpose. So Great Experts have left their marks in their Sea of Consciousness. If we forcibly search their Minds, the marks will destroy their Divine Sense, turning them into mindless husks. Even if we capture mbers of the Blood Sea Palace, we gain nothing. Therefore, I plan to investigate nearby outposts of the Blood Sea Palace. Would you join my team?"
"I could, but given that the Blood Sea Palace dares to oppose your Yaochi Holy Land, this journey could be perilous. Are the people you brought with you strong enough?"
"You insolent boy, are you looking down on ?"
An old man carrying five Longswords, with a spirited and formidable presence, spoke with implicit authority.
He intentionally displayed his power, and his formidable aura moved mountains and shifted sands, creating an invisible wave hundreds of ters high that made the trees in the valley violently tremble!
The people of the Valley of Thousand dicines trembled, and their Valley Master was especially startled, "A Quasi-Emperor expert!"
The disciples of the Valley of Thousand dicines looked up in adoration, "As expected of the Yaochi Holy Land, a Quasi-Emperor accompanies the Holy Maiden."
"With a Quasi-Emperor expert investigating nearby outposts of the Blood Sea Palace, our Valley of Thousand dicines can finally rest easy."
"A Quasi-Emperor, I have never seen such an extraordinary expert in my life!"
"If only I could reach the Quasi-Emperor realm one day."
"You, a re Void Refinent Realm disciple, wish to beco a Quasi-Emperor? You'll likely only reach Earth Immortal at best."
The crowd from the Valley of Thousand dicines looked on with admiration and envy as the Quasi-Emperor from Yaochi Holy Land relished the attention.
As a Quasi-Emperor, he was lofty enough to look down on everyone present.
A Yaochi disciple proudly introduced to Dugu Aotian, "This is Tiancheng Daoist from our Holy Land. Who knows how many Demon Chiefs and Demon Kings have perished under his sword. With him and the Holy Maiden leading the team, annihilating an outpost of the Blood Sea Palace is easily achievable."
"..."
Dugu Aotian remained unimpressed.
Is he just a Quasi-Emperor?
Although Dugu Aotian's master, Lu Changsheng, was still a Daluo Golden Immortal, his combat power was comparable to a Quasi-Emperor's.
