After quite some time, Situ Ye finally managed to compose himself.
However, the lost face was already unrecoverable.
He was now like a volcano on the verge of eruption.
Well, it had already erupted.
"The third round, fight me!"
"All of you, come at me together!"
But Situ Ye didn't look at anyone else, only at Su Luo, and with full rage, he unleashed a large-scale move, adjusting his state to the peak.
This was the strongest he could be without using his trump cards, obviously, he intended to thrash Su Luo.
This time, even Yin Youming had no objections. This wasn't Situ Ye taking personal revenge, but rather, the final round was always like this.
However, Situ Ye was originally supposed to hold back a bit, perhaps it would be a bit difficult against this group, but considering Situ Ye's strength, he should be able to handle it.
If he couldn't, then Yin Youming would step in.
After the duel, the one who performed the best would be chosen as one of the Seven Sons.
But now, it seemed that Situ Ye was truly enraged, and there was no reason to hold back.
Yin Youming sighed at the side, thinking that Situ Ye's restraint needed improvement.
But it was also a good opportunity to see what Su Luo was really made of.
Before anyone else could attack Situ Ye.
Situ Ye suddenly erupted with demonic energy, taking himself as the center, turning the energy into spears and launching them in all directions.
With one move, the entire arena was cleared.
Situ Ye took out his spear again, pointing it at Su Luo: "Now it's just us two. Defeat me, and you become one of the Seven Sons."
Su Luo had expected this, but so what.
"Put the spear away, it's pointless."
Su Luo had already arrived in front of him.
Situ Ye: ?
Su Luo slapped him across the face, knocking Situ Ye to the ground.
"I said I only had one slap, didn't take it before, now you've got it."
Situ Ye's burning face felt an unbearable humiliation. He tried to get up, but couldn't.
What was happening? Why couldn't he stand?
Su Luo asked Yin Youming: "Am I one of the Heavenly Demon Seven Sons now?"
Situ Ye continued to struggle.
Stand up, Situ Ye, you can do it, you're one of the Heavenly Demon Seven Sons!
Aaaaahhh!
But no matter how strong Situ Ye's will erupted, his body simply wouldn't respond, he couldn't move a muscle.
Yin Youming instead asked: "How did you do that?"
"Earlier, he ate something of mine, that's all."
Of course not. Su Luo had fully relied on raw strength, just hidden it well.
He could expose his strength, but not in an exaggerated manner.
Otherwise, there'd be countless interrogations, too troublesome.
He was afraid they'd use force on him, and if he ended up exterminating the entire Heavenly Demon Sect alone, what would Lin Xuan do?
Yin Youming considered whether to test Su Luo himself, but decided against it. Judging from Su Luo's previous performance, it was enough.
"Although it was a bit sneaky, from now on, you are one of the Seven Sons."
With Yin Youming's announcement, the selection came to an end.
"Since that's settled, my job is done. Goodbye, I should go back now."
Situ Ye couldn't understand why he couldn't move after just one slap, what kind of demonic art was this that Su Luo used!
But no matter how resentful he was, all he could do was watch Su Luo leave.
In the future, I will repay this humiliation twofold!
Situ Ye secretly swore.
......
Back at his residence, Yun was already there.
"You're back? Let me guess, should I now call you Su the Demon Lord?"
"That's right, your big brother has been promoted. Following me is your wisest choice."
"I know, so I prepared a gift in advance."
It was a high-quality reclining chair, similar to the one Su Luo usually used, but made with better materials.
Su Luo tried it out, finding it even more comfortable and praised, "You're quite good at this."
"That's what I should do."
Given how well Yun handled things, Su Luo felt a bit guilty for always taking advantage of her.
But rewards for subordinates? That was out of the question. Su Luo's approach to subordinates was purely using them and discarding them.
Xiao Pa, at the side, was dumbfounded. Seeing its master had already given a gift, it felt uneasy not giving one itself.
It first gave a resentful look at its master, such a thing was actually told to me in advance.
For a moment, Xiao Pa didn't know what to give.
Then, the halo on its head lit up.
Aha, I got it.
Xiao Pa came to Su Luo, offering its halo.
"What, want me to touch it?"
Su Luo touched the halo.
A miraculous power flowed from Xiao Pa.
After accepting it, Su Luo knew he could summon Xiao Pa unilaterally.
Xiao Pa proudly meowed.
Both you and your master are lazy, so in the future, summon me to fight.
It was clear that Xiao Pa had good intentions.
Not necessarily using it though.
"Is it okay for Xiao Pa to do this?"
"What's the problem? If you don't want to fight, just summon it."
"But then there's a question, if both me and Yun encounter danger at the same time, who will Xiao Pa save?"
Xiao Pa had never thought about this question, but now thinking about it, it seemed that no matter how it answered, it wouldn't be good.
It quickly pretended to be stupid, standing stiff as a log, Xiao Pa claimed not to understand your words.
"Of course, it's me. I don't matter."
Nangong Xiyun had what kind of strength, did she still need Xiao Pa to save her?
Su Luo also gave up, not making things difficult for them: "I was just kidding, I don't care either."
......
During alone time, Su Luo opened his diary.
[It has been some time since we returned from the Seven-Colored Secret Realm. Lin Xuan should have fully absorbed the harvest from the secret realm and increased his strength.]
[It's time to start a new plot.]
[This time, it's about the Beast Horde.]
[The Beast Horde has been active again recently.]
[First, the Beast Horde wreaked havoc and slaughtered indiscriminately, then the Heavenly Demon Sect caused trouble everywhere. The cultivation world has started to become chaotic.]
[But Lin Xuan is also growing rapidly.]
[This time, the Beast Horde is openly waging war against the Cloud Mist Sect, and the number is enormous.]
[The Cloud Mist Sect requested support. It's not that they can't handle it, but with support, it's undoubtedly the best choice, significantly reducing casualties.]
[As a friendly sect of the Cloud Mist Sect, the Seven Stars Sword Sect took the initiative, and Lin Xuan was the first to arrive at the scene.]
[Everyone knows that the Beast Horde doesn't fear death, the more they fight, the crazier they become.]
[But Lin Xuan is even more manic than the Beast Horde, fighting in a bold and unrestrained manner, yet not lacking in meticulousness.]
[Even surrounded by a large number of beasts, he can achieve countless kills, and it seems his stamina is boundless, extremely impressive.]
His battle stance instantly won the favor of many Cloud Mist Sect disciples, and even some high-ranking ones couldn't help but express their admiration.
[At this time, not only was Lin Xuan shining, but other Seven Stars Sword Sect members also began to perform.]
[Gu Anxin on-site directed people to collect broken weapons, starting to remelt them, fast speed, high quality, and with his special enchantments, it was highly effective against the beasts.]
[Once done, they were directly thrown into the battlefield.]
[Every throw always landed in the hands of those who needed them, the support capability was maxed out.]
[Zhuo Mingyuan, also inspired by Lin Xuan, stepped out of his shadow and started to excel again, his Rain Star Swordplay wreaking havoc.]
[Xie Feiran also broke through himself. Before Lin Xuan arrived, he was the number one at the Pure Martial Pagoda. With his cultivation level up, naturally, he became even stronger.]
[Li Siyi... never mind, she's changed too much, it's hard to tell how she'll perform. She should be good, last time I saw her, she had just barely reached the Gold Core stage, but she's also a genius, just far behind Lin Xuan.]
