A moment later, the Evil King Sect Leader walked into the main hall and bowed to Li Qing, “Greetings, Your Highness the Saint Son.”

This Evil King Sect Leader’s attitude was much more respectful. After all, their power was too weak. The strongest person right now was this fellow in front of him. He was only at the fifth level of the Void Realm.

Even Li Qing could easily defeat the Myriad Devil Sect, let alone defeat them.

However, although the Evil King Sect was weak, their foundation was very deep. They had some special things, which was why they had the chance to stand in front of Li Qing.

Although Li Qing recognized this fellow, he had never seen Li Qing before. He was also the one who had settled the grudges back then, so he was naturally unclear about the origins of some of the grudges.

So both sides are strangers.

“May I ask how to address the Evil King Sect Leader?” Li Qing asked.

“My surname is Wei.” The Evil King Sectlord only revealed his surname, but he did not say his name. This showed how cautious he was.

“Mr. Wei, what kind of cultivation method do you want to exchange for?”

“Among the supreme techniques of the Demon Ancestor, there is a technique called ‘World Devastating Demonic Light’. May I ask if I can exchange it for it?”

“Of course you can, but what does your Evil King Sect need this unique technique for?” Li Qing asked curiously.

“Naturally, it’s useful. The Holy Son doesn’t need to ask.”

Li Qing said, “Then what do you plan to use to exchange for this peerless technique?”

The Evil King sect leader said, “Before that, I want to clarify one thing. His Highness the Saint Son seems to have cultivated the True Spirit Nine Transformations. How did he obtain them?”

“Why are you asking?”

“Back then, I had a subordinate who brought along two of the Nine Transformations of the True Spirit to handle matters. However, he didn’t return. I wonder if this matter has anything to do with you?”

Li Qing frankly admitted, “That’s right, I killed him, and my True Spirit Nine Transformations were stolen at that time. What, are you here to seek justice?”

“I don’t dare. The Saint Son is powerful and has a high status. I’m far from being a match for him. Naturally, I don’t dare to complain.” The Evil King Sectlord immediately admitted defeat.

“Then why are you asking about this?”

The Evil King smiled and said, “The Saint Son has only cultivated two of the Nine Transformations of the True Spirit. I have more here. Do you want it?”

“Of course! Do you want to trade this for it?”

“Perhaps the only thing I can impress His Highness the Saint Son right now is the True Spirit Nine Transformations. Naturally, I can only bear to part with them. I intend to trade with His Highness the True Spirit Nine Transformations in exchange for the World Devastating Demonic Light. Is that satisfactory?”

“You want to exchange for the World Devastating Demonic Light with a single change? Aren’t you thinking too simply?” Li Qing sneered.

“A change isn’t enough? Then what do you want?”

“We need at least three changes! Otherwise, there’s no need to talk about it.” Li Qing waved his hand.

The Evil King Sect Master’s expression changed. He shook his head, “There are too many three changes. I can only give you two changes. If you agree, we can conclude the deal immediately!”

“I’ve already decided. I want three changes! Hand it over.” Li Qing said domineeringly.

The Evil King Sect Leader’s expression was extremely ugly. He said, “Li Qing, you’re going too far, aren’t you? No matter what, I can’t accept the three changes.”

“You have to think about it carefully.” Li Qing’s gaze was deep.

“There’s no need to think about it. I’m very disappointed with His Highness the Saint Son’s attitude. If you have the chance to come back in the future, you can only say goodbye now.” The Evil King Sect Leader cupped his hands and turned around to leave.

Rumble!

With a loud noise, he heard the door close, blocking the way. How could he get out?

“Li Qing, what do you mean?” The Evil King’s Sectlord roared angrily.

“It’s meaningless. Hand over those three transformations and I can let you go.” Li Qing’s expression was cold.

“Looks like you’re trying to sell it by force!” The Evil King Sectlord smiled angrily. “I’ve heard that Li Qing is a righteous person for a long time, but I didn’t expect that he would actually do such a shameless thing. He really knows people, knows faces, and doesn’t know hearts. Everyone has been tricked by you.”

“In terms of shamelessness, who in the world can compare to your Evil King Religion? Why should I say anything moral to evil people like you?” Li Qing was not angry at all.

“I, the Evil King Sect, do not think I have offended you. Instead, you stole our True Spirit Nine Transformations. Why are you so aggressive!”

“Haha, think carefully. Haven’t the Evil King Sect really offended me?” Li Qing laughed loudly.

“When did this happen?”

“You’re still pretending to be stupid. Back then, you wanted to steal my body and use it as a container for the Great Evil King. Not to mention you, the leader of the Evil King Sect, you actually didn’t know about this!”

“I really don’t know about this!” The Evil King Sect Master smiled bitterly. “Back then, even though I ordered to find a suitable container, the specific target I chose was not something I was operating. How could I know about this?”

“Enough, I don’t want to discuss this with you. Hand over the Three Transformations and let you go today. Otherwise, you will only be trapped here for the rest of your life!”

“Right now, there are only the two of us in this hall, right?” The Evil King Sectlord suddenly asked.

“That’s right, what do you want?”

“Since that’s the case, then I’ll capture you directly. Doesn’t this mean that you’ll obediently let me out?” The Evil King Sectlord revealed a sinister smile.

As he spoke, the evil aura on his body became more and more vigorous, transforming into Evil King Touches that shot towards Li Qing.

“Insignificant skill!” Li Qing snorted coldly.

It had to be said that many of the evil arts of the Evil King Sect were extremely terrifying. They were extremely evil, and people who did not know their background might be hit.

However, it would be foolish to think of resisting in the Myriad Devil Palace.

The battle did not cause too much waves. A moment later, the Evil King Sectlord was caught by Li Qing with a large hand and begged for mercy repeatedly.

“Either take out the True Spirit Three Transformations or die. Choose one. I don’t want to talk nonsense with you!” Li Qing’s tone became cold.

“Alright, I’ve lost today. I can only agree to your conditions.” The Evil King Sect Leader gritted his teeth. He was also someone who could bend and stretch, so he agreed without hesitation.

“Heavenly Roc Transformation, White Tiger Transformation, and Black Tortoise Transformation.” Li Qing said in a deep voice.

“If I hand it over, are you sure you’ll let me out? Don’t go back on your word and kill me!”

“Do you still have a chance to bargain in your current situation? The room I am willing to give you is already considered magnanimous. Otherwise, if I kill you directly, I will be able to find out the True Spirit Nine Transformations from your body!”

“Here you go!” The Evil King Sect Master threw out three books and flew in front of Li Qing.

Li Qing took it. After checking it for a while, he nodded in satisfaction, “Yes, it is indeed the Nine Transformations of the True Spirit! I am not a person who does not keep his word. Since you have produced something that satisfies me, I will honor my promise.”

He also took out the World Devastating Demonic Light and handed it over to the Evil King Sect Leader. Then, the door opened, allowing the other party to leave.

Not long after, Devil Master Yin Tianhong descended upon this place. An avatar projected out and smiled, “Have you finished negotiating with them?”

“That’s right, we’ve all reached a deal.”

“You can’t blame me for not informing you about this in advance, right?”

“Of course not. Ever since I joined the Myriad Devil Sect, I knew that there would be people who would covet the Demon Ancestor’s inheritance. No matter what, they wouldn’t be able to defend it. It would be better to take the initiative to hand it over so that there wouldn’t be too many enemies. The Demon Lord’s method was very correct. Not only did it solve my crisis perfectly, but it also allowed me to obtain a lot of benefits.”

“It would be great if you had such an idea.” Yin Tianhong nodded.

“The Diabolism Alliance was destroyed because of me just now. I wonder if this is appropriate?” Li Qing asked.

‘”It’s fine, you’re doing the right thing. If the Diabolism Alliance can’t be of use to me, then there’s no point in coming. You shattered that contract with one palm, which saved me a lot of trouble. However, your performance at that time made me look impressed. Being able to have such courage in front of so many experts was indeed influenced by the Demon Ancestor’s personality.”

“As long as it doesn’t cause any trouble to the Myriad Devil Sect, then there will be no problem.” Li Qing said.

“The autonomy of this matter, all by yourself to deal with it. I won’t interfere too much in making deals with the various forces in Diabolism. However, you should also pay attention to a few points. If Blood Sea Devil Sect comes to trade with you, you can’t agree to it no matter what. The other is that every faction can only release one unique technique to them, so it won’t work if there are too many of them. “We need to firmly grasp the Demon Ancestor Inheritance in our hands. Only then can we order Diabolism to follow everything.”

“I will remember Devil Master Lord’s instructions.” Li Qing nodded.

“If there’s nothing important, then I’ll leave.”

“Wait, Devil Master Lord.” Li Qing immediately stopped him.

“Oh? What else do you have to say?”

“May I ask when I will be able to leave Myriad Devil Palace and go to the outside world?” Li Qing asked.

“What? It’s only been so short a time, and you can’t help but feel lonely anymore?”

“I just don’t think there’s a need to stay in the Myriad Devil Palace all the time. Cultivating here is similar to experiencing all kinds of tempering outside. In fact, it’s about the same for me.”

Yin Tianhong’s gaze was deep as he said indifferently, “Perhaps the most important thing is that the woman outside is worrying you, right?”

After a moment of silence, Li Qing frankly admitted, “That’s right, that’s my most important woman. I can’t leave her!”

“This is not a good thing. As the descendant of the Devil Ancestor, retaining such a fragile relationship will be the most fatal weakness in your life. I suggest you abandon that woman.”

Li Qing’s eyes narrowed as he slowly shook his head and said, “Impossible! I can’t abandon her for the rest of my life unless I die!”

‘”What you said makes me even more worried. It would be foolish to have a weak relationship, and you are even willing to die for a mere woman. This is the extreme of foolishness!”

“Do you have to abandon all your feelings if you want to be a member of Diabolism?” Li Qing asked.

“It’s not completely abandoned. It’s absolute. Life is more colorful with emotions. But if you get so deeply involved, it becomes a fatal weakness.”

Li Qing shook his head, “But the weakness you mentioned is the source of my motivation! Without her, my life would be meaningless!”

“You’re really stubborn. Forget it, I won’t persuade you anymore. If you experience more in the future, you’ll naturally see through the world and stop obsessing over this useless emotion.”

“Then I don’t know about my departure from Myriad Devil Palace…”

“You are Holy Son of the Devil, not a prisoner of my Myriad Devil Palace. I will not stop you whenever you want to leave.” As Yin Tianhong spoke, he took out a token and threw it in front of Li Qing.

“What is this?” Li Qing asked.

“A token to enter and exit the Myriad Devil Palace! With this token, you can leave the Myriad Devil Palace. If you want to return, you only need to activate the power within it. We will naturally welcome you in.”

“So that’s how it is! If this thing is lost, wouldn’t it be very dangerous? What if enemies use it to sneak in?”

“It’s useless to be taken by someone else, because if you want to leave Myriad Devil Palace, you still need to go through the entrance of the Sect Leader. When you want to enter, you also need to wait for the Sect Leader’s help. It’s not something that you can enter by yourself. You can only leave or enter if you are sure that it’s safe.”

“So that’s how it is. The Myriad Devil Sect, which has lasted for 100,000 years, indeed has strict rules and regulations.” Li Qing understood.

“Every Holy Son of the Devil will be in charge of an area after they leave. Demon Saint You Luo is in charge of the East China Sea, while Yan Motuo is in charge of the Northern Region. Since your woman lives in the Southern Region now, you should be the person in charge of the Southern Region in the future.” Yin Tianhong said.

“What does this person in charge need to do?”

“All of Myriad Devil Palace’s strongholds in the Southern Domain will be your subordinates! This is your rightful right. However, while enjoying your rights, you must also bear responsibility. The construction of the various strongholds in the Southern Domain will also be handled by you.”

“At the same time, if some parts of the Southern Domain are attacked by powerful enemies, you should also deal with them in a timely manner. If you don’t do a good job, you should be questioned!”

“Occasionally, we will also assign some tasks to you. Of course, you can also entrust this matter to your subordinates. In short, you can do it in the end!”

“There are still some general things that you will know when you experience them.”

“I understand. I will definitely live up to my responsibilities.” Li Qing said in a deep voice.

“I look forward to your performance. I hope you won’t disappoint me.” Yin Tianhong’s voice gradually dissipated.

After a moment of silence, Li Qing looked at the token in his hand and whispered to himself, “Ke’er, wait. I’ll be back soon.”

…

In the outside world, after more than a year, Xuan Ran was once again stirred up.

It was obvious that the news of Li Qing taking over the throne of Holy Son of the Devil had already spread to all the major powers in the world through various spies and spies.

Li Qing, the Demon Ancestor’s inheritor, actually didn’t die! This was not good news for most powers.

Especially those people who had chased after Li Qing, they were even more terrified, afraid that Li Qing would come to seek revenge.

Fortunately, they were also organized people, and they would basically seek the protection of major powers, so they didn’t have to worry too much about Li Qing rushing over.

If they were really stupid enough to directly charge forward, then it would be great if they could set up an ambush and catch a turtle in a jar.

“The Demon Ancestor’s inheritance was born. Could it be that Diabolism is really going to rise? I wonder where the Ancestor’s inheritance is?” Someone sighed.

“Most of the cultivation techniques cultivated by the great powers in this world are more or less the same as those cultivated by the Dao Sect back then. Although the true Dao Sect’s ultimate technique is no longer there, it has been passed down in another form.”

“That’s right. Our Righteous path has developed for 100,000 years. Could it be that we can’t defeat the rise of Diabolism? There have been several times in history when Diabolism flourished. Haven’t we also been annihilated by the Righteous path?”

‘”That’s ridiculous. Although the Righteous path has developed for 100,000 years, it doesn’t necessarily have much advantage over the ancient era. Basically, it is a step forward and a step backward. The final result is still the same as before.”

“That’s right. Although the Righteous path occupies the main territory, once we enter a peaceful period, we will fall into internal strife and consume our own strength. How much progress can we make if we continue like this?” Everyone was discussing.

…

Just as this news was stirring up waves in the world, the Southern Domain’s Cloud Continent was also thrown into chaos because of something else.

Because they were very far away from the Central Region, and there weren’t any forces directly connected to them, they didn’t know much about these things.

Only some well-informed forces would find out that the first place in the Central Region Martial Arts Convention was called Li Qing. Not long after, they were able to see through their identities and were surrounded by many forces.

The identity of the Demon Ancestor’s inheritor had also become a topic of discussion between them.

But that’s all.

The name Li Qing was still quite common in the world, and no one thought of it as referring to that young man back then.

What they didn’t know was that this peerless genius called Li Qing came from the Cloud Continent! Quite a few people had seen it before!

Unfortunately, those who had met Li Qing back then had basically forgotten about him. After all, he was just an ordinary martial artist. How could he deserve too much attention?

Even his appearance was almost forgotten, so how could he associate this aspect with the Demon Ancestor’s descendants?

Of course, some of the people from the Liu Clan, as well as the City Lord of Cloud Province, had already found out that Li Qing was still alive.

This was because Liu Ke’er had returned to the Liu Clan to find her parents and inform them that Li Qing was still alive.

However, she did not reveal Li Qing’s current identity. She only said that he had been adventuring in the Outer Realm these past few years, and the specific situation was not revealed at all.

After all, this was an earth-shattering event. No one knew if it would cause any trouble. It was better not to let them know and quietly be an ordinary person.

The Liu Clan had been under the protection of the City Lord of Cloud Province all these years, and they had lived quite peacefully. Not many people dared to bully them. This also made Liu Ke’er breathe a sigh of relief.

The Liu Clan was naturally overjoyed at Liu Ke’er’s return. The battle at the Eight Desolate Mountains had truly shocked the entire Cloud Continent.

Everyone thought they were dead!

The Yunzhou City Lord had been furious over the death of Elder Liu and the others, but it was a pity that his strength was inferior to others. Moreover, he had a large family and was bound by many restrictions. He was unable to seek revenge from the Eight Desolate Sect.

However, the tree wanted to calm down, and the wind didn’t stop. He didn’t want to cause trouble for the Eight Desolate Sect, but the Eight Desolate Sect wanted to cause trouble for him.
