Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

Chapter 191 Million Demon Beasts

"I submit, this king submits..."

Faced with the threat of death, Huang Bo made a very decisive choice to submit.

Xiao Yi then ceased his attack.

At this moment, Huang Bo was in an extremely miserable state, with almost no part of his body unharmed. His face was not just swollen and bruised; he had also broken dozens of bones throughout his body.

He was covered in wounds, with sword scars crisscrossing and blood flowing freely.

What's more, many of his wounds were seared, and the smell of cooked flesh filled the air.

With a face full of grievance, Huang Bo looked at Xiao Yi and muttered, "You, you humans are indeed the most terrifying creatures in this world!"

Xiao Yi rolled his eyes, "If you hadn't provoked me, would I have gone to Nanhuang to deal with you?"

"..."

After thinking it over, Huang Bo said with indignant resentment, "It's all Ge Zheng's fault, that old husband. Otherwise, I would still be in Nanhuang, leading my million demon beasts. How could I have ended up in such a plight?"

A million demon beasts?

Xiao Yi's eyes shone slightly.

He had always been lamenting that the Four Symbols Legion only relied on pills to temporarily improve the warriors' cultivation while enhancing their combat strength with equipment. They hadn't managed to assemble a powerful cavalry force. After all, in this world of martial artists, ordinary warhorses used as cavalry, if faced with elite troops like the Golden Crow Guards, would have minimal effect.

But what if he could have a million demon beasts as mounts?

When the million demon beast cavalry charge together, even the Golden Crow Guards would have to avoid their sharp edge, right?

Watching Xiao Yi's gleaming gaze fixed on himself, Huang Bo subconsciously shuddered, looking warily and asking, "What, what, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Yi rubbed his hands together and smiled with a grin, "Huang Bo, are you comfortable living in Nanhuang?"

"Huh?"

Huang Bo was taken aback and said with pride, "I am the lord of Nanhuang. With a million demon beasts under my command, I'm waited on hand and foot for food and lodging. How could it not be comfortable?"

"What do you eat? What do you wear? And where do you live?"

Xiao Yi pointed at him, "Are you talking about this poor quality yellow robe you're wearing? Is your food just roast meat? Don't tell me you live in a cave?"

Huang Bo: "..."

The physiques of demon beasts are much stronger than humans, but they are far inferior in terms of creativity.

Just as Xiao Yi said, he lived in a cave!

Xiao Yi tutted, "The august lord of Nanhuang actually still lives in a cave. If word of this got out, wouldn't people die laughing?"

"I, I..."

At a loss for words, Huang Bo could only say indignantly, "If not in a cave, where else could I live? We demon kind don't build cities..."

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's cooperate!"

"Cooperate?"

Huang Bo looked at Xiao Yi with a strange expression.

Xiao Yi nodded earnestly, "I'll have the king confer upon you the title of a Protectorate Divine Beast, a status equivalent to that of a noble in the Tianqing Kingdom. In due course, His Majesty will build a Beast King City for you near Nanhuang. Imagine having top human chefs prepare you lavish meals, top human tailors crafting you beautiful clothes, and living in a palace..."

Heaving! Heaving! Heaving!

Huang Bo's face turned red, and his breathing quickened.

The demon beast race was indeed very envious of human life.

Especially after he became capable of transforming, Huang Bo found himself adopting many human living habits.

If his life could truly be as Xiao Yi described, with a city built for him and servants to attend to his every need, the days would be blissful!

But...

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Huang Bo said with a trembling voice, "What would this king have to give in return?"

Xiao Yi squinted and said, "I plan to form a cavalry of a million monster beasts. All you need to do is let your million monster beasts cooperate with us and become the combat companions of my cavalry."

"Let my children be mounts? No, that won't do…" Huang Bo shook his head hurriedly.

Xiao Yi said, "Not as mounts, but as combat partners, and when the time comes, your children will also be rewarded for their merits and promoted nobly! Look at my clothes, soft in texture and luxuriously fashioned. You, as the ruler of Nanhuang and the majestic Beast King, what are you wearing?"

Huang Bo subconsciously tightened his yellow robe.

This clothing, which had once filled him with immense satisfaction, now seemed uglier the more he looked at it. It would be embarrassing to be seen in it!

Xiao Yi pressed on his advantage: "Look at what you're eating. Roasted meat without a hint of seasoning. Try this…"

He took out a stack of osmanthus cakes from the storage ring.

Huang Bo took a bite, his eyes squinting into slits, a look of satisfaction on his face.

Xiao Yi spoke leisurely: "This is just a dessert after dinner. The real delicacy is far more delicious than this! Imagine, in your Beast King City, lying in a luxurious palace under the sun, with a chef cooking various gourmet dishes by your side, a tailor custom making beautiful and noble garments for you..."

Thump!

Thump!

Huang Bo's heartbeat sped up, his gaze fixed on Xiao Yi, "Done! Isn't it just being a mount? I, the king, have decided. When you need them, I will bring my children right away!"

Xiao Yi's heart leapt with joy and he said, "Within half a month, have all the monster beasts arrive in Jing Mountain outside the capital, and they must travel through the wild mountains and rivers along the way, without revealing the news of the million monster beasts. Can you manage that?"

"No problem!"

Huang Bo patted his chest, his face showing a peculiar expression, "You're planning to ambush someone, aren't you?"

"Don't put it so crudely. It's just a strategic necessity!" said Xiao Yi.

Huang Bo rolled his eyes and said, "Then shall I return to Nanhuang now to bring the children over?"

Xiao Yi nodded and asked further, "By the way, you're not a Dharma Manifestation Realm beast, how can you transform?"

Huang Bo said, "I found a Transforming Herb in Nanhuang once, so I could transform early."

"Is there any more Transforming Herb in Nanhuang?" Xiao Yi asked.

Huang Bo shook his head and said, "No more. The Transforming Herb blooms once in a thousand years, and it takes another thousand years to mature. It's not so easy to come by!"

"Forget it!"

Xiao Yi waved his hand resignedly and took out a token to give to him, "When you bring the monster beast army to the capital, take this token to find Gu Junhe, and he will know how to arrange things for you!"

Find adventures on empire

"No problem!"

Huang Bo accepted the token, hesitating before he left, he asked, "You're just letting me go like this? Aren't you afraid I'll disappear and never return?"

Xiao Yi said indifferently, "If you disappeared, I guarantee that there would be no more monster beasts in Nanhuang. Even at the Ends of the Heaven, I would take your head!"

Seeing the Fire Qilin Sword in Xiao Yi's hand emitting flickering flames, Huang Bo shivered all over and said with an awkward smile, "Rest assured, am I the kind of person who reneges on a promise?"

Whoosh!

Huang Bo soared into the sky.

Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, thinking of the time when the two armies would face each other.

With a sudden appearance of a million monster beast cavalry on his side, sweeping through everything, what kind of scene would that be!

"With the addition of a million monster beast army, my Four Symbols Legion will truly be perfect!"

Xiao Yi took a long breath, already foreseeing the invincible scene of the Four Symbols Legion, and he unconsciously gripped the Fire Qilin Sword in his hand tighter.

But just then...

A shocking explosion came from afar, the ground shook and the mountains trembled, and a purple light column could be seen shooting up into the sky.

Wasn't that in the direction of the Tungsten Iron Mine?

Xiao Yi's expression changed dramatically, "Has something happened?"
