"They're coming on so aggressively, I bet they'll get a good scolding from the Grand Elder of the Human Emperor's Palace!"
"What era are we living in? How dare you act so arrogantly? So what if you're at the Tribulation Transcending Realm? What's so great about that?"
Not long after Yama landed, his gaze swept over the passing cultivators and fruit and vegetable farmers, and he vaguely sensed that something was amiss.
strangeness……
Why are they not only unafraid of me, but also dare to criticize me when I lead such a powerful army to the mortal realm?
"Hmph." Yama sneered, "It seems I haven't been to this realm for far too long. These ants don't even recognize me!"
Seeing Yama's arrogance, the surrounding crowd grew even louder in their discussions.
"Holy crap, who is this guy? He's got such a big mouth!"
"I don't know. It's better if we don't cause trouble. This is the doorstep of the Human Emperor's Palace. If he's here to cause trouble, the Human Emperor's Palace will send people to deal with him."
Seeing that the onlookers had calmed down a bit, Yama scoffed disdainfully.
He walked straight up to Ye Yixuan and asked indifferently, "Little girl, I have a few questions for you."
Ye Yixuan remained silent.
Yama couldn't see through Ye Yixuan's cultivation level; he only thought she was an ordinary person.
Ye Yixuan realized that Yama's cultivation was at the peak of the ninth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, only one step away from becoming a half-step True Immortal, and couldn't help but feel interested in playing with him.
"Please speak, my lord. I will tell you everything my daughter knows without reservation," Ye Yixuan said, bowing.
King Yama nodded, his voice filled with majesty as he asked, "I ask you, are you a person who lives in the City of the Human Emperor?"
Ye Yixuan lowered her head, her eyes darting around, and replied, "Yes, sir."
Yama glanced at the crowd of onlookers and noticed that many of them were at the Refinement of Void Realm or the Transformation of Spirit Realm. He frowned and pointed at the onlookers, asking, "Where are these people who are surrounding us?"
"They... are all people who came from all directions to serve the new emperor!"
"The new emperor?" Yama's voice was full of authority. "Is it that person named Su Nian?"
"That's right! It's him!" Ye Yixuan said, tears streaming down her face. "My lord, you may not know this, but since the new emperor Su Nian killed the old emperor, he has been indulging in debauchery and exploiting the common people! He insists on forcing all the strong people in the world to enter his imperial palace and become his subordinates. Because my town couldn't produce any decent strong people, he is forcing me to come to the imperial city and become his concubine..."
"Hmph! Outrageous!" Yama snorted. "Such wicked deeds disqualify him from being the new emperor!"
Meanwhile, Yama, the King of Hell, was secretly laughing to himself.
Su Nian, Su Nian, blame yourself for your bad character.
Now, even if I launch a full-scale attack on your Human Emperor City, I doubt Nantianmen would dare to say anything, right?
King Yama stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Since that's the case, you may follow me. Come with me to storm the Human Emperor City and capture the criminal Su Nian!"
"Yes, sir," Ye Yixuan said, bowing her head, and then obediently followed behind Yama.
Watching Yama take the initiative to attack the Human Emperor City, Ye Yixuan couldn't help but chuckle to herself.
When the troops arrived in front of the Emperor City, the disciples of the Emperor Palace responsible for guarding the city gate also came to the Emperor Palace to report the matter to Su Nian.
Upon hearing that Ye Yixuan had come with Yama, Qian Weiwei was the first to express her dissatisfaction, "Hmph! I told you long ago that this person couldn't be allowed to live! A guy like this, who only knows how to play tricks and schemes, will only become another treacherous immortal in the future!"
Su Nian didn't speak, but was thinking about something.
Seeing that Su Nian remained silent, Qian Weiwei continued, "In my opinion, since Ye Yixuan dares to stand with Yama, let's take this opportunity to kill her too! That way, she won't suddenly switch sides when the final battle comes! By then, it will be too late for us to back out!"
“Weiwei, it’s not that I don’t want to kill Ye Yixuan.” Su Nian slowly shook her head. “She is the only one who knows the weakness of the Ghost Immortal. If we kill her, it will be very difficult for us to win if we fight the Ghost Immortal head-on.”
"Our realm is no longer what it used to be. If we exert all our strength, we may not be no match for the Ghost Immortal!"
"Even if we can gather the power of the entire world and contend with the Ghost Immortal, we will only pay a heavy price. Until the very last moment, we still need to find several ways out."
Su Nian stood with her hands behind her back and said calmly, "Moreover, I don't think Ye Yixuan is that tactless. She is already at the half-step True Immortal realm. There's no reason for her to stand on the side of the Underworld at this time, unless she thinks she is confident in fighting against me."
"Let's observe first," Hong Jiuquan said. "Ye Yixuan is good at disguising herself. She might be deceiving Yama. As for whether she is loyal to us... why not let her fight Yama?"
"Let's go and see what she's up to."
Hong Jiuquan gave a soft "hmm".
Qian Weiwei pouted in dissatisfaction.
A moment later, the group arrived at the Human Emperor City.
Looking at the imposing thousand-strong army of Transcending Tribulation Realm warriors outside the city, Su Nian couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement.
"With such a large number of Tribulation Realm troops, only the Underworld, besides the Southern Heavenly Gate, has such resources."
Qian Muyu stroked his long white beard and said, "It is indeed awe-inspiring. If I had seen such a large army two months ago, I would probably have led my people to surrender immediately."
Qian Weiwei rolled her eyes. "You're such a spineless leader of the Illusion Demon Clan, aren't you?"
Qian Muyu chuckled, "Those who know when to yield are the heroes, ancestor."
Qian Weiwei rolled her eyes at Qian Muyu and didn't say anything more.
