Master of the Demon Emperor-Chapter 220 -
```
After eradicating Heaven of Great Demons, Su Yie received another opportunity to invite others, which was incredibly satisfying.
Meanwhile, under the enlightenment of the Black Tiger Emperor, Tai Su Sword Lord honestly handed over the resources necessary for joining the sect.
Su Yie secretly took pride in himself and thought, "It seems that the death of the Heaven of Great Demons has indeed intimidated him."
He didn’t use the subsequent invitation opportunity right away, as the resources for joining the sect didn’t have much impact on him.
The cultivation resource Tai Su Sword Lord handed over was named Divine Consciousness Technique, a cultivation technique for the Divine Soul. Su Yie found it uninteresting, but thought it could come in handy for practice in the future.
His soul was very strong, a fact pointed out by Xia Tianyi, Lu Ziwei, and the father of Li Huahun—which was also an important reason for his eidetic memory and highly acute comprehension.
After the death of Heaven of Great Demons, discussions within Emperor Su’s Sect revolved around Overlord Luo Fu and the Golden Crow Divine Race.
Empress of the Great Zhou: The day when the Demon Clan perishes is not far off.
Gui Chouxie: The Demon Emperors are simply too foolish.
Overlord Luo Fu: What do you mean by that?
Venerable Xuanyuan: Hahaha, Overlord Luo Fu, I advise you to switch allegiance to the Demon Lord; perhaps the Demon Lord can truly replace the Golden Crow Divine Race.
Tai Su Sword Lord: Bailing Demon Lord, huh? I admire him; he will surely achieve great things in the future. Read latest chapters at novelbuddy
Xiahou Jinxuan: Newbie, don’t flatter him—flatter me. I’m the real bigwig in Emperor Su’s Sect.
God of Slaughter Gong Sunqi: We could take this opportunity to seize the lands of the Demon Clan. Empress, why doesn’t Great Qin join forces with Great Zhou?
...
Seeing that Tai Su Sword Lord had such high regard for him, despite not knowing whether it was sincere or feigned, Su Yie felt gratified.
At the very least, it meant his fame had reached a certain height.
This young man is quite remarkable. I shall promote him well in the future.
Su Yie thought to himself, and immediately concentrated on cultivating, striving to reach a higher level in his cultivation.
In the following days, a wildfire broke out that had not been seen in a millennium, sweeping from the southern part of the Eastern Lands towards the central region, alarming many kingdoms, dynasties, and Demon Nations.
Various factions joined hands to extinguish the fire, and later it was revealed that the true cause of the blaze was the Golden Crow Divine Race.
The Golden Crow Divine Race was trying to hunt down Bailing Demon Lord, but ended up being counter-killed, and the True Sunflame spread across forests and lands.
Once the news broke, Bailing Demon Lord’s reputation soared while the Golden Crow Divine Race attracted countless curses.
Many monsters and cultivators were burned to death in the fire, and some kingdoms and Demon Nations were directly reduced to ashes. The True Sunflame was indeed too powerful, annihilating everything in its path.
"The Golden Crow Divine Race is a disaster; they must be exterminated!"
"Only Overlord Luo Fu remains out of the five Demon Emperors under Di Jun; the Demon Clan is doomed to decline."
"The Golden Crow is cruel and tyrannical; they must be exterminated!"
"I share this sentiment; the supreme beings of the Demon Clan should not be spared."
"But who can annihilate the Golden Crow Divine Race?"
A wave of public opinion emerged in the Central Region of the Eastern Lands, with voices from all tribes and kingdoms declaring their intent to topple the Golden Crow Divine Race.

The wildfire caused the hatred toward the Golden Crow Divine Race to instantly overshadow that towards Bailing Demon Lord.
It must be said that the Golden Crow Divine Race suffered a major blow this time—not only did they lose dozens of their kind, but they also angered the entire Eastern Lands.
Five days after the wildfire.
Great Qin declared war on Great Xia. The Emperor of Qin, in a furious statement, vowed to obliterate Great Xia within a century.
Great Xia was contemptuous, signaling their readiness for battle: If you want war, bring it on!
As the war between the two Holy Dynasties began, the presence of Bailing Demon Lord greatly diminished, so much so that no power sought to pursue him anymore.
They were either too frightened to act, or simply lacked the energy to do so.

Just like that, a month hurriedly passed.
Su Yie’s vast army had expanded to an enormous two million, including one hundred thousand from the Human Clan, most of whom were refugees that Su Yie took in along the way.
If one wished to establish a Demon Nation, a foundation of laborers was certainly needed.
Su Yie gave them a chance to live. They didn’t need to fight, only to contribute their labor. When taking them in, Su Yie was upfront about this, and the refugees accepted his offer without any opposition, even with a sense of gratitude.
"Passing through this forest is a range of continuous mountains, and beyond that lies the Endless Ocean. We can establish the Demon Nation here."
Xia Tianyi walked shoulder to shoulder with Su Yie at the front of the grand army, and he said this with a smile on his face.
Finally, they had arrived here.
On their way, how many hardships had they encountered?
It’s worth mentioning that the number of Divine Power Demon Kings under Su Yie had broken through to over a thousand, the number of Condensed Spirit Demon Kings had reached fifty, and there were as many as ten Demon Kings of the Astral Projection Realm.
This sort of lineup was more than enough to sweep through any kingdom or third-rate Demon Nation.
"This area is so desolate, are we really going to rely on ourselves?"
Su Yie asked with a frown, considering how much time and effort it would take to build a kingdom.
"Don’t worry, just follow the coast. There are kingdoms, Demon Nations everywhere, and they all trade with each other. The Endless Ocean is full of Spirit Ore, Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, even Magic Artifacts blown in by the sea. But there are also many dangers lurking, the Demon Beasts in the ocean are much stronger than those on land."
Xia Tianyi explained to Su Yie, his face wearing a nostalgic smile.
Once upon a time, he had his own story by the seaside.
Su Yie was also interested and hoped that what came next wouldn’t disappoint him.
Soon, he led the grand two-million-strong army out of the forest in a mighty procession, into the midst of the mountain range. From here, one could see the Endless Ocean through the gaps between the mountains.
In the distant sky, many terrifying giant birds circled, hunting for prey.
In the Ancient Wilderness, many creatures of limited Spiritual Wisdom survived on instinct alone, but by consuming the corpses of other Demon Beasts and breathing, over time, their strength became incredibly formidable. These creatures were collectively known as savage beasts, and, especially outside the Human and Demon Clans, there were as many of them as there were ants.
"Let’s establish the Demon Nation here. The mountains stretch on continuously. We can build the city at the base and watchtowers at the top. It’s better to stay away from the seaside in case we encounter violent storms, which would be catastrophic."
Su Yie contemplated aloud, his decision met with a nod of approval from Xia Tianyi.
That settled it. Su Yie ordered the Demon Army to disperse and occupy the surrounding barren mountains, to first demarcate their territory before making further plans.
"Rest for a while, then carry out the tasks previously assigned."
Su Yie turned to address a row of Demon Kings behind him.
On their journey here, he had already allocated tasks.
Some Demon Soldiers were tasked with cutting wood, others with moving stones, and various other tasks, all assigned in meticulous detail, as the journey through mountains and rivers was quite dull.
"From now on, this will be our home. What do you think we should call it?"
Nan Xiaopao sidled up to Su Yie, wrapping his arm and asked with a laugh.
Her eyes were full of longing and anticipation.
"You name it,"
Su Yie said as he pinched her cheek affectionately, his words brimming with indulgence.
Nan Xiaopao tilted her head, gazing over the rolling mountains before them, and softly suggested, "How about we call it Demon Court?"
Demon Court!
Su Yie raised an eyebrow and asked with surprise, "Why not name it after a Dynastic Kingdom?"
Hearing this, Nan Xiaopao made a face of disdain and said, "That’s so mundane!"
"Demon Court sounds great. It’s like the Heavenly Court from the myths, lofty and above all else, and we are building it for the Demons so it should be called the Demon Court."
Nan Xiaopao asserted confidently, feeling increasingly pleased with the name.
