Yao Yue couldn't do anything about Liu Yan's death. He could only make up his mind to help Liu Yan fulfill his wish.
Yao Yue used his innate fire to cremate Liu Yan's body and stored his ashes in a jar. He planned to pass the ashes to his descendants when he went to Beiming City in the future.
The other two silently watched everything that Yao Yue was doing, their eyes flashing with a complicated look.
They had drunk the thousand-year spirit spring water and were in a better state of mind. They were thinking about what to do next.
"I can't tell you my identity, but if you can save me and bring me back to the Glorious Sun Dynasty, I'll give you ten yuan and a complete mid-grade King Skill," said the other person.
His voice was full of certainty, which also showed that his identity was extraordinary.
Yao Yue looked at the person in astonishment. He noticed that the person's clothes were damaged, but he could still tell that it was a King grade armor. Just from the armor alone, he was certain that the person was telling the truth.
"I've already said that I can save you, but I need to know your identities. I don't need those empty promises!" Yao Yue replied in a deep voice.
He needed to know their identities before he could consider saving them. Otherwise, they would spread the news that he was a Fiend, and he would be in big trouble.
"Alright, I'll tell you. I'm Zi Xuyao," said the person after a moment of silence.
"Zi Xuyao?
You … You're the old emperor of the dynasty, Zi Xuyao? "Yao Yue's eyes flashed with astonishment.
"That's right, I'm the emperor."
Zi Xuyao sighed. "Since you're one of my people, you should know that I'm the daughter of the emperor. You can save me without worry, right?"
"Old Emperor, weren't you in the palace?
Why are you here? "Yao Yue was puzzled.
Although he believed Zi Xuyao's words, he still didn't dare to believe them completely.
After all, who would have thought that the old emperor of the dynasty would become the pet of a Fiend?
"Alas, I can only blame myself for this matter. I wanted to take a step forward too much. I only wanted to extend my lifespan by a few years, but I ended up in this state!"
Zi Xu Yao sighed and said to Yao Yue, "Touch my waist, there is a token there that can prove my identity."
"Sorry for the offense!"
Yao Yue said and searched Zi Xu Yao's body. Sure enough, she found a token!
Yao Yue took the token in his hand and looked at it. The token was engraved with dragons and phoenixes, with a rising sun in the middle and the words' Imperial Token '. It was undoubtedly the Imperial Token of the Glorious Sun Emperor!
He was certain that this command medallion was not fake, because he had seen his grandfather Long Tianba with a similar command medallion. His grandfather's command medallion was given to him by the Old Emperor.
Yao Yue returned the medallion to Zi Xuyao's waist and said, "You really are the old emperor. Yao Yue will save you now."
Yao Yue did not show much fear. He just maintained his respect for the Old Emperor.
In this place, the Old Emperor was just a prisoner and a human pet. Yao Yue saved him because of his conscience, not because of his identity.
Moreover, he saved the Old Emperor, who would owe him a favor. Yao Yue might even need this favor in the future.
Yao Yue took the key and opened all the locks on the Old Emperor's body. At the same time, he gave the Old Emperor a thousand-year-old ginseng and told him to consume it to heal his injuries.
The Old Emperor's injuries were mainly his internal organs ruptured and his back was severely injured. The fact that he was able to survive until now was a testament to his strength. Any other Innate Yuan King would have died long ago.
The Old Emperor drank the thousand-year-old spiritual spring water and consumed the thousand-year-old ginseng. He then sat down cross-legged to heal his injuries.
Yao Yue was not worried that the Old Emperor would leave on his own after he recovered. There were countless Monster Kings here and it was impossible for him to kill his way out.
If he wanted to live, he would have to stay by Yao Yue's side.
At this moment, Yao Yue's gaze landed on the only woman in the room.
Yao Yue couldn't see the woman's face clearly, but her figure was very mature and charming. Ah Na was very graceful, so she should be a young married woman.
Her clothes were torn in many places, but fortunately, the important parts of her body were still covered. However, the skin that was exposed was tender and rosy, as if water would drip from it at any moment.
There was no trace of a Monster King's aura on her. It was obvious that her Yuan Sea was broken. There were obvious wounds on her lower abdomen.
There was also something stuffed in her mouth. The Monster King must have stopped her from killing herself by biting her tongue.
"Just kill me!" said the woman in a weak voice.
"If I can help you recover your strength, will you still want to kill me?" asked Yao Yue with a smile.
The woman's eyes lit up slightly, and her breathing quickened as she asked, "Can you really do it?"
"First, tell me who you are." Yao Yue did not answer the woman's question directly. Instead, he changed the topic.
"He Wei!" replied the woman.
"That's all?" asked Yao Yue.
"That's all!" replied the woman.
"Then forget it. I'll let you go. You know what's best for you!" said Yao Yue as he shrugged.
Without understanding this woman's background, Yao Yue couldn't put in a lot of effort to completely cure her!
Knowing the other party's body was the only way he could use it against the other party and not be afraid of the other party leaking his secret. Otherwise, if he were to reveal the fact that the other party was treated as a human pet, even the Xiantian Yuan King would not be able to withstand the scorn of the world!
"I'm from Cangxuan Palace!" said the woman just as Yao Yue was about to leave.
"What? You're from Cangxuan Palace?" exclaimed Yao Yue.
The woman nodded. "It's up to you whether you believe me or not." She paused for a moment before continuing, "If you can heal me, I'll repay you generously. I'll also forget everything I saw. If you can't heal me, kill me!"
Yao Yue hesitated for a moment before taking out the five-colored flower. "Consume it. It should be enough to heal you."
This was the second time he had heard the words' Cangxuan Palace '.
It was a legendary holy land, similar to the ten sovereign lands of the fiend race. It was home to the strongest Emperors of the human race.
Yao Yue could not understand how someone from the holy land had fallen to such a state. However, everyone had their own secrets, and he did not want to pry into them. He only hoped that the woman would remember his kindness today.
Perhaps one day, he would pay a visit to the holy land. At that time, she might even be able to help him.
However, he had used two spirit herbs in a row, which made him feel extremely pained.
"When you leave this place, I hope you'll remember to compensate me well!" Yao Yue thought to himself.
Yao Yue allowed them to recover. He was not worried that they would escape, so he went to the side and began his next breakthrough.
Yao Yue had only been a mid-grade Great Demon for half a month, but he was already preparing to break through to high-grade Great Demon.
This was all because he had absorbed ten origin stones, devoured a large amount of demon meat from Demon King Coldmoon, consumed a thousand-year-old Pinecrane Fruit, and consumed the monkey wine. These energies had already strengthened his demon core to the point where it was about to break through.
Just as he was about to break through, Xiao Liuzi's shout rang out not far away. "Smelly bat, how dare you ambush me? You're courting death!"
"You shameless monkey, how dare you insult this prince? I'll make sure you die a horrible death!" The Demonic Bat King sneered.
Yao Yue guessed that the Demonic Bat King was here to get back at him.
Yao Yue could only give up on breaking through and continue forward.
The Demonic Bat King had actually summoned a large number of Demonic Bats. There were at least several thousand of them, and each of them was at least at the Intermediate Demon realm. There were also quite a few Great Demons among them.
With such a terrifying army, the nearby Great Demons all retreated far away, not wanting to be implicated.
Apart from that, there were also two Demon Kings in human form behind the Demonic Bat King. Clearly, they were here to deal with the Old Monkey King and White Crane King.
"Bat Prince, what do you want? We have a friendly relationship with the Diamond Apes. If you treat us like this, the Diamond Apes will not let you off easily!" said the Old Monkey King.
"Heh, you want to use the Diamond Apes to pressure us?
You're too naive!
Hand over that shameless monkey, that eagle, and those three human pets, and I'll spare your lives. Otherwise, I'll suck your blood dry! "sneered the Demonic Bat King.
"You're going too far! Old monkey, scram! I'll let you know how powerful this Monkey King is!"
Xiao Liuzi had a prideful bloodline. How could he allow the Demonic Bat King to threaten him like this?
The Old Monkey King did not intend to hold back anymore. He said to the Demonic Bat King, "If you want to fight, then fight. I'm not a coward."
Then, he looked at White Crane King and said, "Old Crane, this has nothing to do with you. You should leave."
White Crane King shook his head and smiled. "Old Crane drank your wine, so he's your friend. How can I abandon my friend?"
"Good, very good. Today, all of you can die!"
Sneered the Demonic Bat King. He immediately ordered the two Demon Kings and the group of Demonic Bats to attack.
The Old Monkey King and White Crane King exchanged glances before releasing their high-grade Demon King auras at the same time, killing a large number of Demonic Bats.
"You two deal with those two old fellows. I'll kill this little monkey!"
The Demonic Bat King did not care about the deaths of the Demonic Bats. After shouting at the two Demon Kings, he charged at Xiao Liuzi.
Wielding a black trident, he transformed into a black bolt of lightning and attacked Xiao Liuzi.
The Demonic Bat King was a peak low-grade Demon King. Not only was he fast, but his attacks were also very powerful. Most importantly, he could let out a sinister smile that could frighten his opponents.
Xiao Liuzi spat out a mouthful of innate fire, forcing the Demonic Bat King to dodge. He then smashed his black rod at the Demonic Bat King.
The two young Demon Kings began to fight fiercely.
On the other hand, Yao Yue was attacked by many Demonic Bats. Their bloodthirsty fangs were aimed at him.
"Let's start a massacre tonight!
So what if you're from the imperial clan? "Yao Yue gritted his teeth and shouted.
