Chapter 4979 The Old Demon's Cave

"Greetings, Lord Su Bai."

Upon seeing Su Bai, Yu Xian'er gave a slight bow, her manners impeccable, and her gentle smile made people feel very comfortable.

"No need to be polite."

Yu Xian'er said, "Master is at Tianxuan Immortal Tower. Please come and see him!"

"Do you know what it is?" Su Bai asked.

"It's related to a secret realm. Once you arrive, Master will explain in detail."

Su Bai nodded slightly, "Then let's go!"

Yu Xian'er led the way, guiding Su Bai to the Tianxuan Immortal Pavilion.

Su Bai stood with his hands behind his back, in a very good mood. He glanced at Yu Xian'er's back.

Although it was only her back view, she was like a fairy in a painting.

Su Bai could sense that Yu Xian'er's cultivation had become even stronger.

“Xian’er, when I first met you in front of your master, you were still a Saint-grade, but now you have reached the peak of the Divine-grade, right? You are only one step away from the Divine Realm.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Xian'er nodded gently, "Yes, sir. My master has provided me with a lot of help, otherwise my cultivation would not have improved so quickly."

In the vast Wanzhou Chamber of Commerce, most affairs were handled by Yu Xian'er on behalf of Fu Yunxiu.

Fu Yunxiu only makes decisions on some key and important matters. It can be said that Yu Xian'er is his right-hand woman in terms of the Wanzhou Chamber of Commerce.

As a result, Yu Xian'er had very little time to cultivate on her own, so it was reasonable for Fu Yunxiu to give her more help in her cultivation.

"I wonder how Mingya is doing now?" Su Bai asked curiously.

He thought of his disciple Mingya when he saw Yu Xian'er.

Mingya was the only person he brought out from the chaotic universe, and also his youngest disciple.

Although Mingya's cultivation level was already very high, in Su Bai's heart she was still a little girl, like his own daughter.

Before long, Su Bai and Yu Xian'er arrived at Tianxuan Immortal Pavilion, Tianxuan Terrace.

Fu Yunxiu was here, as were the Northern Sea Taoist, Feng Shenye, Blood Sea Sword Master, and Spirit Pivot Immortal Lord.

Su Bai glanced at them and then smiled, "Since everyone is here, it seems that the matter to be discussed today is quite complicated."

“It’s simple, but not simple either. It’s related to the Old Demon of Cangzhou,” Feng Shenye said, standing up.

"The old devil of Cangzhou?" Su Bai frowned slightly. "Has someone traced the cause of that old bastard's death back to us?"

Fu Yunxiu smiled and said, "That's not it. We handled the death of the Old Demon of Cangzhou cleanly, and we had an Immortal Realm giant erase the secrets of heaven for us, so they can't find out anything about us."

"It is the cave of the Old Demon of Cangzhou. It was discovered by a fellow Daoist at the peak of the Divine Realm, who invited powerful figures from all over the world to attack his cave and seize the Dao treasures within."

"As everyone knows, the Cangzhou Old Demon has lived for an extremely long time. Some immortal realm cultivators may not even be as old as him. Over these long years, the Cangzhou Old Demon has amassed countless riches, including but not limited to various magical artifacts, great techniques, and immortal medicines."

"His cave dwelling definitely contains a lot of resources, enough to support several God Realm experts, but the cave dwelling has extremely strong restrictions that he cannot break through, so he invited the world's strongest experts."

Hearing this, Su Bai was somewhat puzzled. "The Old Demon of Cangzhou is a member of the Demon Empire. Even if his dojo is discovered, would the Demon Empire easily allow outsiders to plunder it?"

Fu Yunxiu smiled and said, "That is indeed the case under normal circumstances, but you should know that the Old Demon of Cangzhou has too many karmic entanglements and grudges involved!"

"Now that he's dead, many who want revenge will target his descendants and his Daoist scriptures. The Demon Empire can suppress him, but it will provoke public outrage, so the Demon Empire won't directly and forcefully take over the Old Demon of Cangzhou."

Su Bai was somewhat surprised, "Isn't the Demon Empire always arrogant and domineering? Would they care about incurring public wrath?"

Fu Yunxiu chuckled, "In the past, we wouldn't have cared, but things are different now. The Taihuang Heavenly Court is hiding in the shadows and has already put considerable pressure on them, especially with the suppression of an Immortal Realm expert."

"If we provoke public anger again, it will be a very troublesome matter for the Demon Empire. Before the existence of the Taihuang Heavenly Court, everyone believed that the Demon Empire was invincible and that there was only one way to die if you opposed it."

"Things are different now. The existence of the Primordial Heavenly Court and its confrontation with the Demon Empire have shown the world the possibility of resisting the Demon Empire. The world has suffered under the Demon Kingdom for too long!"

Su Bai nodded, "I see."

That makes sense!

Just like a secular empire, where the emperor is incompetent and tyrannical, the people suffer immensely but can only suffer, unable to muster the will to resist. The secular emperor will not care about the common people.

However, if someone were to rise up and confront the emperor and his power, not seeking victory but merely demonstrating the ability to resist, then the people who have long suffered exploitation would surely rise up.

Although the common people are weak, if they can unite as one, their energy is enormous.

Only the Demon Empire would consider this aspect.

"What is the Demon Kingdom's attitude towards this matter?" Su Bai continued to ask.

Fu Yunxiu said, "The excavation of the Old Demon's cave in Cangzhou is not allowed for those at the Divine Realm level. However, each Divine Realm expert may bring one Extraordinary disciple with them to enter the Old Demon's cave."

"As for the final amount obtained, the Demon Empire will not interfere."

Su Bai scoffed, "This Demon Kingdom has quite the plan. In this way, they can use the death of the Old Demon of Cangzhou to quell the anger in some people's hearts, while they can also benefit greatly from it. The Demon Kingdom's Transcendent Realm experts must be much stronger than those outside."

“That’s exactly right.” Fu Yunxiu nodded. “I also plan to lead a group to participate in the excavation of this old demon’s cave. The five of us can each send one person at the Transcendent Realm. My choice is Xian’er.”

The Hokkaido Taoist said, "Although my disciple is not good enough, this is a good opportunity for him to gain experience."

Feng Shenye, Blood Sea Sword Master, and Spirit Pivot Immortal Lord also planned to send their respective disciples.

Fu Yunxiu looked at Su Bai and asked, "Su Bai, what about you? Do you have a suitable candidate? If Mingya is still alive and hasn't broken through to the Divine Realm, she would be a good choice."

Upon hearing this, both Ling Shu Immortal Lord and Blood Sea Sword Venerable nodded in agreement, showing a high level of approval for Ming Ya!

After all, Mingya was able to stand on equal footing with those in the Divine Realm even before she reached it!

Such a record is rare even in the entire universe!

However, even though Mingya wasn't there, Su Bai did have a suitable candidate.

Fu Yunxiu said, "Although the gods from all sides will not participate in the excavation of the old demon of Cangzhou's cave, there may be some clashes."

Su Bai said, "I think I have a good candidate here."

"Oh?" Fu Yunxiu cast a curious glance at her.

"Do you still remember Shen Yue?" Su Bai asked with a smile.

"Shen Yue, didn't that kid leave a long time ago?" Fu Yunxiu asked, somewhat surprised.
