On the border between Nanping Prefecture and the Hundred Thousand Mountains of Southern Xinjiang, Chen Yuan and Su Ziyue only stayed for a short time before leaving with the Immortal Slaughtering Sword.

The old fox had escaped, and Nangong Lie was forced to retreat. There was no point in waiting any longer, and there would even be considerable risks. If the Prince Zhennan detected something was amiss and returned, they wouldn't be able to withstand him in their current state.

After all, the strength of Prince Zhennan, Nangong Lie, far exceeded theirs. If they actually fought, they would only face defeat and death.

The same was true for the old fox. If he returned with the powerhouses of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan, it would be an extremely dangerous situation for Chen Yuan.

As for Jiang He, his Immortal Slaughtering Sword was taken by Chen Yuan, who planned to return to Praying Moon Mountain, where Jiang He would rejoin them.

The battle to rescue Su Ziyue was now completely over.

Looking back, it was no easy feat.

First, they encountered a Fox Clan Demon Saint, and relied on the primordial spirit divine ability, Void Stagnation, to turn defeat into victory. Then, they chased after him all the way, and at the most critical moment, they even encountered Prince Zhennan, Nangong Lie.

If Jiang He's Immortal Slaughtering Sword hadn't arrived in time, Chen Yuan's losses today would have been great.

However, while it was dangerous, the rewards were not small.

First of all, Su Ziyue was unharmed, and in a few days, she would be able to trigger the Tribulation of Desire Fire, and begin breaking through to Refine the Spirit, adding another force to the Dao Divine Palace.

Then, he severely injured a Demon Saint of the Demon Race, and skinned his fox hide.

Finally, he found another guy with Destiny, although he couldn't kill him for the time being, and couldn't kill him, he wasn't afraid of thieves stealing, but he was afraid of thieves thinking about it. He completely remembered the Destiny on Nangong Lie's body.

He also completely remembered today's enmity.

Even if there was no opportunity in the future, he would have to create an opportunity to kill this guy.

Also, this matter was beneficial to him. Nangong Lie didn't know that the Qilin Demon was him, but he knew that his enemy was Nangong Lie, which was like being hidden in the dark.

Moreover, Chen Yuan vaguely felt that Nangong Lie was a little strange.

He didn't kill a severely injured Celestial Fox Clan Demon Saint, but instead attacked him. Such a disposition was too different from Prince Zhennan who was stationed on the border. If it were King Beiliang, Wei Jinfeng, as long as there was an opportunity to weaken the strength of the Prairie Royal Court, he would definitely not miss it.

Based on this point alone, Chen Yuan completely remembered it.

His first meeting with Nangong Lie was etched in his heart!

Chen Yuan's return to Praying Moon Mountain was agreed upon with Su Ziyue, preparing to completely take down the Su family to work for him, which also made Chen Yuan sigh. Once a woman becomes ruthless, she shows no mercy at all.

However, there was indeed only one path in front of the Su family.

He knew the biggest secret of the Su family. Even if he didn't make a move, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan would no longer keep the Su family and would definitely find a way to detonate this pawn.

If Chen Yuan took the Su family members under his command, it would be considered saving them.

Perhaps, Su Ziyue had also anticipated this.

The Su family were human traitors, selling out many human interests and secretly transporting spiritual herbs unique to the Central Plains to the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan. But even without the Su family, there would be other families... Except for the upper echelons of the Su family, the Su family disciples below simply didn't know their identities.

It was impossible to keep them all. A batch had to be eliminated. The remaining people would use the rest of their lives to repent for their sins until... the new Su family members started anew.

Su Ziyue was one of the two highest-ranking people in the Su family, and she knew most of the Su family martial artists. Those with a conscience would be kept, and those who had truly harmed the interests of the human race, or had done anything evil, would be directly removed.

There could be no mercy on this point.

Keeping such people would only be a disaster, and who knows when they would collude with those demons again.

Chen Yuan and the others pursued quickly, and returned quickly as well. When they returned to Praying Moon Mountain, the Su family members below were still carrying out the rescue.

Many Su family martial arts masters were protecting the family.

Su Ziyue and Chen Yuan hid in the dark, silently observing everything about the Su family.

"What to do?"

Chen Yuan gave the choice to Su Ziyue.

Su Ziyue was silent for a moment, then took out a sound transmission talisman and said,

"Ancestor, this is Ziyue. I am currently on Praying Moon Mountain. If you don't want the Su family to be completely destroyed, you must return within half an hour."

After saying that, she didn't give the Su family ancestor any other chance to reply and directly burned the sound transmission talisman.

"Will he come back?"

Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow. When they fought earlier, he had personally seen the Su family ancestor fleeing in a panic, definitely not someone with a tough backbone.

"Although the ancestor is shrewd, he still has feelings for the Su family. Don't worry." Su Ziyue sighed softly.

"What if he doesn't come back?"

"I'm still here. I can still control the Su family for you!" Su Ziyue said in a deep voice.

They had specifically returned, not just to subdue the Su family. To be honest, except for Su Ziyue, the Su family only had one remaining Refined Spirit ancestor, whom Chen Yuan could now destroy with a wave of his hand.

An old fox couldn't gain his trust.

But...

With the support of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan, the Su family had an extremely strong intelligence network and external forces in the southern states, especially in Southern Prefecture, which was very useful to Chen Yuan now.

It could also help him obtain spiritual herbs from Southern Xinjiang from channels other than the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan, which was very useful for Chen Yuan to control the south.

Therefore, after hearing Su Ziyue's persuasion, he agreed.

Chen Yuan took a deep breath when he heard this and didn't say much. He just reached out and hugged Su Ziyue. The sudden move made Su Ziyue stiffen. She looked up at Chen Yuan, but didn't say anything. She let out a breath and leaned into his arms.

......

......

Summit of Praying Moon Mountain.

Su Ziyue and Chen Yuan stood with their hands behind their backs, waiting for the return of the Su family ancestor. Half an hour had passed, but there was still no movement around.

Another quarter of an hour passed, and the void behind them rippled. Chen Yuan slowly turned around and saw the Su family ancestor holding a beast-headed crutch, looking wary.

"Ziyue..."

The Su family ancestor glanced at Chen Yuan, then quickly withdrew his gaze and hastily focused his eyes on Su Ziyue.

"Ancestor, you are late."

Su Ziyue said indifferently.

The Su family ancestor was silent for a moment, not answering the question, but asking: "...You asked me to come back... what else is there?"

"I already said it just now. If you don't come back, ancestor, the Su family will be completely destroyed today, cutting off the inheritance."

"You... you are also a member of the Su family!" The Su family ancestor frowned.

"Precisely because I am a member of the Su family, I have found a way out for the Su family. Working for the demon race will be exposed sooner or later. Once that happens, the Su family will be completely destroyed.

Ancestor, don't you really think that the promises of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan are real? Surely you've heard the saying, 'Those who are not of our race will have different intentions'?"

Su Ziyue asked in a condensed voice.

The Su family ancestor sighed upon hearing this:

"The Su family members have Fox Clan blood in their bodies. What can I do?"

"Break away from the Fox Clan, return to the human race, and I will guarantee the Su family's safety." Chen Yuan interjected appropriately.

"Who... exactly are you?"

The Su family ancestor looked up at Chen Yuan, seemingly not believing him.

"When the Su family completely submits, you will naturally know."

"Bai... how is that old fox now?"

The Su family ancestor changed the subject and asked instead.

A light flashed in Chen Yuan's hand, and a piece of top-grade white fox fur appeared in his hand. He smiled without saying a word, but the more he did so, the more it allowed the Su family ancestor to imagine.

Sure enough, the moment Chen Yuan took out the fox fur, the Su family ancestor's gaze instantly froze. He recognized this piece of fox fur as the one on Elder Bai's head.

Now that it had been skinned alive, its ending... seemed to have already been determined.

"Can I trust you?"

The Su family ancestor took a deep breath and lightly tapped the ground with his crutch.

Chen Yuan put his arm around Su Ziyue and said in a deep voice:

"Su Ziyue will be my official wife in the future. Do you think she can be trusted?"

Su Ziyue pursed her lips, didn't struggle, and defaulted on Chen Yuan's words.

"Ziyue..."

"Ancestor, don't worry. Ziyue is also a member of the Su family. With me here, the Su family will definitely be able to continue."

"Name your conditions..."

The Su family ancestor was silent for a moment and made a decision.

And currently, the most suitable choice in front of him was only this one.

Submission!

The Su family ancestor was a shrewd man and knew that it was absolutely impossible for this person to let go of the Su family so simply. There must be more purposes. He could only gamble now.

The person who could kill Elder Bai was definitely not simple.

Chen Yuan was very satisfied with the Su family ancestor's sensible behavior and said indifferently:

"First, you must allow Ziyue to engrave a restriction in your primordial spirit for at least twenty years. Second, Ziyue will eliminate a batch of Su family members, and you will do it yourself, cleansing the entire Su family once.

Third, the Su family is a wing of the demon race, harming the interests of the human race, which is an unforgivable crime. Ninety percent of your family property must be turned over to repent for your sins.

Fourth, from now on, all the Su family's forces in the south will be handed over to Ziyue. As for you... just stay in the clan and retire."

With each condition Chen Yuan stated, the Su family ancestor's face became more and more unsightly. This was simply to completely hollow out the Su family and transfer all his power to Su Ziyue.

This would definitely be a major reshuffle for the Su family.

"Ziyue..."

The Su family ancestor turned his gaze to Su Ziyue, hoping she could say something fair. Su Ziyue: "This is what I proposed."

Su family ancestor: "......"

"This... is a bit too much, right? Cleansing the Su family is fine, submitting to you is also fine, but engraving a restriction and turning over ninety percent of our family property, isn't that..."

He wanted to bargain.

Chen Yuan directly interrupted him:

"From the moment you came back, the initiative was no longer in your hands. Moreover... do you think that without you, I wouldn't be able to control the Su family?

I don't trust you, and I don't trust the Su family. The restriction must be engraved, otherwise I can only send you on your way. Also, if it weren't for Ziyue pleading, just the Su family's actions alone would not be enough to atone for even ten deaths. Do you understand what I mean?"

"This..."

The Su family ancestor hesitated.

"Ancestor, this is the Su family's last chance. Only by completely reforming can there be a chance for rebirth. Since ancient times, humans and demons have been irreconcilable.

The Su family was indeed forced to, but it is also a sin to inquire about information and transport spiritual herbs for the Fox Clan. To have the current ending is already a stroke of good luck."

"How can you guarantee that the demon race's revenge won't fall on the Su family?" The Su family ancestor said in a deep voice.

He knew very well that once the Fox Clan spread the word about what the Su family had done over the years throughout the south, it would bring a disaster to the Su family. The heroes of the Central Plains would attack them in droves.

"First, kill a batch of Su family members and pretend, and then the remaining people will all leave Southern Prefecture. From now on, there will be no more Su clan of Praying Moon Mountain. Choose a place to re-establish the Su clan!"

"Where to go?"

"This... you will know later, ancestor."

The Su family ancestor closed his eyes, was silent for a long time, and finally nodded:

"Ziyue, from now on, you will be the patriarch of the Su family. I will retreat behind the scenes."

"Ancestor, you have made a wise choice."

"I hope so..."

Then, the Su family ancestor opened his mind, and Su Ziyue engraved a restriction on his primordial spirit. As long as he was not honest, a single thought could make him fall on the spot.

"These and their direct descendants of each branch family are the list of those to be eliminated. I hope you won't show mercy, ancestor, to avoid other troubles in the future." Su Ziyue threw a jade slip to the Su family ancestor.

Let him handle this matter personally, he was the real ruler of the Su family, and all the Su family's forces were in his control.

"I understand."

The Su family ancestor put away the jade slip, without even looking at it, because it was meaningless.

"Can you show your true face now?"

The Su family ancestor looked at the black-armored man in front of him with a look of doubt.

Chen Yuan nodded, and the scales on his body disappeared in an instant, revealing a handsome face, exuding an imposing aura that inspired awe, which made it clear that he had been in a high position for a long time.

When the Su family ancestor saw his true face, he instantly froze in place, his pupils shrinking deeply.

The Su family's power extended throughout the south, so they naturally knew something about Chen Yuan and had seen his detailed portraits. They were deeply impressed and recognized him at a glance.

He now understood why this person had the confidence to protect the Su family.

He bowed and saluted:

"Old man has met Marquis!"

"Su, go ahead and get busy."

Chen Yuan smiled indifferently.

The Su family ancestor nodded slightly, took a deep look at Su Ziyue, and didn't know when she had become acquainted with this notorious existence. From the looks of it, it seemed to have been for a while...

"Understood."

The Su family ancestor bowed and retreated.

After he had gone far, Chen Yuan turned around again, standing on the top of Praying Moon Mountain with a calm gaze, overlooking the people below who were as small as ants, looking down on all living beings!

"After this battle, you should be able to be on the Supreme Ranking."

Su Ziyue suddenly said.

"Probably..."

Chen Yuan pursued the Demon Saint for thousands of miles. There were countless onlookers along the way. Thinking about it now, this news had probably spread to the outside world, and the situation of his Qilin Demon would probably spread as well.

With such a record, it was very likely that he would be on the Supreme Ranking!

The Human Ranking had 365 Hidden Dragons, corresponding to the number of the Zhou Tian.

The Earth Ranking had 72 Wind and Clouds, corresponding to the number of the Earth Fiends.

The Heaven Ranking had 36 Supremes, corresponding to the number of the Heavenly Stars.

But there were actually not many True Monarchs in the world, at least there were definitely not many on the surface. Most people could occupy a place on the Supreme Ranking, and he was no exception.

The only thing that was uncertain was whether the people of the Immortal Ascension Tower could discover that he was actually a member of the human race.

If they put the title of a Demon Saint of the Demon Race on him, his reputation for chasing the Demon Saint for thousands of miles would be gone. He had to actively reveal some information.

"Do you want to reveal your true identity?"

Su Ziyue continued to ask.

"Let's hide it for the time being..." If the identity of Marquis Wu'an, Chen Yuan, was exposed, it would definitely alert Jingtai, which would not be worth the loss at the moment.

However, he could first show off his face as the Qilin True Monarch. If he revealed his true identity later, it would be able to achieve unexpected results.

"Okay..."

......

......

The situation that Chen Yuan and Su Ziyue had guessed was basically true. In just one hour after the end of the battle, many forces in Southern Prefecture and even the south learned the results of this battle.

The Demon Saint of the Celestial Fox Clan was chased like a stray dog, with crumbling morale, causing a shock in the south.

And the most critical point they were concerned about was whether the person who chased the Demon Saint was a human powerhouse. If so, why was his body covered in scales and his head had horns?

If not, why did he pursue him relentlessly for thousands of miles?

Regarding this point, many people were discussing it, some said yes, and some said no, causing a great controversy. After that, a Heavenly Pill Grandmaster who happened to pass by near Praying Moon Mountain and saw the battle at the True Monarch level couldn't help but record the scene at that time with a treasure, which settled the matter.

Chen Yuan's public opinion means were not even needed.

The Immortal Ascension Tower, at a considerable cost, intercepted that segment of the image and sent it to the main tower. After the tower master and many experienced elders carefully judged it,

they identified the horned warrior as a human powerhouse!

As for his appearance, which was very different from that of the human race, it was also explained.

He was the Qilin Demon, which had been recorded in ancient books!

Any human martial artist who devoured and absorbed the blood of the different beast Fire Qilin would have a high probability of changing and possessing extremely powerful power, but in essence, it was only a change.

He was still human!

This determination immediately caused a great uproar.

As long as it was determined to be a human powerhouse, then it could be weighed and considered about this person's entry into the Supreme Ranking!

But this was later, so let's not mention it for now.

On the other side, Chen Yuan and Su Ziyue were still on the top of Praying Moon Mountain.

Su Ziyue, who had been silent for a long time, said in a deep voice:

"In a few days, I will start refining my spirit."

"You have a deep foundation, and you have been tempered by the fire of desire before, so it shouldn't be difficult to get through it." Chen Yuan comforted her.

"Answer me a question."

Su Ziyue looked at Chen Yuan very seriously.

"You say."

"Do you like me?"

Chen Yuan nodded:

"Of course, if I didn't like you, why would I come to Nanping Prefecture?"

"When did you start having bad thoughts about me?" Su Ziyue's eyes flickered, wanting to ask the bottom line to see if she was the first to be moved, or if this guy was the first to be moved.

"The second time you saved me in Ping'an County." Chen Yuan still remembered the situation at that time. At that time, the powerful Su Ziyue was no less than a fairy in front of him.

However, the gap between the two sides was too large, so he could only suppress these evil thoughts.

Later, his cultivation became higher and higher, and this idea gradually arose.

"Why?" Su Ziyue's mouth curled up, and a touch of joy couldn't help but arise in her heart.

Chen Yuan smiled indifferently:

"Just because you are too beautiful."

Su Ziyue: "???"
