Yi Chen knew very well that if he was treated as a demon, he would never have the chance to be with Yao Rui again.

Most people in the world regarded the Demon Clan as their enemy.

And Yao Tianrong had always despised him.

It was obvious that once Yao Tianrong determined that he was a demon, there would be a rift between him and Yao Rui forever!

So he could only explain desperately.

Chen Fengtao, Dou Yuanlong, Gong Chunhai, and the others looked at each other and shook their heads.

No matter what, the Divine Martial Academy wouldn’t recruit a demon.

Chen Fengtao sighed heavily. “You have the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword, which proves that you’re a person with boundless potential.”

“Unfortunately, we’re different people. We’re not on the same side. We won’t accept you.”

“Leave quickly, or Divine Martial Academy will definitely kill you with all our might!”

“I…” Yi Chen trembled and hurriedly put away the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword.” I can’t leave! ”

If he left, the fact that he was a demon would be confirmed.

He would never be able to join the Divine Martial Academy or become famous in North Mystic Heaven.

He would also lose his beloved Yao Rui forever. This was a consequence he couldn’t bear.

“Then don’t blame us for being ruthless!”

Chen Fengtao and the other two elders took out their Intrinsic Flying Swords and glared at Yi Chen.

They discovered that although the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword Yi Chen activated had the power of the Emperor Realm, Yi Chen’s strength wasn’t strong.

With their Supremacy Realm cultivation, it wasn’t difficult for them to forcefully resist the power of the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword and kill Yi Chen!

At the foot of the mountain, seeing that the Third Elder was about to attack, Yao Tianrong shook his head and sighed.

“So this kid has become a demon. He won’t escape calamity this time!”

The Divine Martial Academy was personally established by Empress Mystic Ice. There were many experts inside, so it was obvious.

He felt that no matter how powerful Yi Chen’s Demon Sword was, he wouldn’t be able to escape from the hands of the Divine Martial Academy.

Yao Rui heard all of this and her heart ached.

Why did things turn out like this?

Phew ~

Just as the atmosphere halfway up the mountain was tense, a beautiful purple light lit up the entire mountain.

Everyone looked up and saw a beautiful figure in purple standing in the air.

Beside her, a handsome young man in white carried four cute little girls and looked down at everyone.

“It’s Her Majesty and the Consort!”

Chen Fengtao and the others recognized Lin Xuan and Donghuang Ziyou at a glance.

They hurriedly jumped down from the Black-feathered Cloud Sparrow and knelt on the ground.

“Greetings, Your Majesty!”

“Greetings, Consort!”

On the mountainside and at the foot of the mountain, a total of more than a million people revealed looks of awe and knelt down in unison.

Everyone couldn’t hide their excitement.

They had never thought that they would one day see this peerlessly beautiful empress and her handsome husband with their own eyes.

Donghuang Ziyou looked down at Yi Chen and said, “Why do you insist on joining the Divine Martial Academy?”

In the hall, she sensed demonic aura soaring into the sky in front of her.

After releasing her spiritual sense, she heard Yi Chen, Chen Fengtao, and the others’ conversation and roughly understood what had happened.

Yi Chen said loudly, “Your Majesty, I have the ambition to fight on the battlefield and make contributions, and the Divine Martial Academy can help me achieve this.”

“In addition, I have someone I love. In order to marry her, I want to prove that I’m worthy of her through the Divine Martial Academy!”

Hearing this, Yao Rui couldn’t help but tremble at the foot of the mountain, and two tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Donghuang Ziyou’s expression softened slightly. “It sounds like you’re an ambitious and loyal person!”

Yi Chen hurriedly bowed his head. “My words carry no weight. I dare not receive such praise from Your Majesty!”

Donghuang Ziyou nodded lightly.

With her talent in cultivation and being at the peak of the Great Saint Realm, she could easily discover Yi Chen’s secret.

A shrewd look appeared in her extremely beautiful eyes.

“I can forcefully transform the Demon Sword Energy in your body to help you avoid the danger of transforming into a demon.”

“But this process will not only damage the power of the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword, but also cause heart-wrenching pain.”

“Are you willing to accept it?”

Yi Chen’s eyes revealed a hint of excitement and determination when he heard this.

“It’s my fortune that Your Majesty is willing to help!”

“As long as I don’t become a demon, I will die without regrets!”

He slammed his head on the ground and almost cried.

After leaving the Wind Spirit Sect, he accidentally fell into an abyss and picked up a powerful Demon Sword as well as a mental cultivation technique beside it.

This Demon Sword was the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword that had just been revealed.

As for the mental cultivation technique, it was the Immortal Demon Expiation Technique.

This mental cultivation technique could allow Yi Chen to become the successor of the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword. He could inherit the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword in his body and borrow the power of the Demon Sword.

As his cultivation level increased, he could also use this cultivation technique to transform the Demon Sword Energy in the Demon Sword into righteous sword energy to avoid the danger of being devoured by the Demon Sword.

Originally, he had already cultivated the Immortal Demon Expiation Technique to the third level and could use the Demon Sword Energy to raise his cultivation to the Spirit Stage Initial Phase.

Furthermore, he could use the power of the Demon Sword to hide his cultivation level so that people below the Emperor Realm couldn’t see his true cultivation level.

If not for Zhang Heng and the others causing trouble, he might have kept a low profile and joined the Divine Martial Academy to slowly improve himself.

But in the end, things didn’t go as planned.

Because of Zhang Heng and the others, he was pressured by Chen Fengtao and the other two Supremacy Realm elders at the same time, causing the Demon Sword Energy in his body to become uncontrollable.

Now, Donghuang Ziyou was willing to help him transform the Demon Sword Energy. To him, this was a great thing. How could he refuse?

“Yes.”

Donghuang Ziyou nodded lightly.

She had long read rumors about the Nine Tribulations Demon Lord in the Demon Palace of the Lifeless Kingdom and the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.

This person wasn’t a true demon.

His Nine Tribulations Demon Sword also contained the power of nine lightning tribulations, which were neither immortal nor demonic.

Therefore, as long as Donghuang Ziyou made a move, she could make the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword transform the Demon Sword Energy.

She waved her fair hand and a mysterious Purple Demon Art enveloped Yi Chen.

Then, Yi Chen felt his body being torn apart crazily. The pain was ten times worse than that of death.

However, Yi Chen knew that he had to do as he said when facing the empress!

He gritted his teeth. It was so painful that his blood vessels almost ruptured, but he didn’t even let out a wail.

Bang!

Purple light exploded.

A black light rushed out of Yi Chen’s body and quickly disappeared.

A green light lingered around Yi Chen’s body, making him look like a martial arts prodigy.

Sensing Yi Chen’s aura, Chen Fengtao and the others trembled.

“Peak Spirit Realm!”

“So the Demon Sword Energy can be transformed into righteous sword energy. Her Majesty is really an eye-opener!”

“Your Majesty is discerning and unbiased when it comes to talent. You’re really broad-minded!”

Everyone sighed with emotion.

If not for Donghuang Ziyou, Yi Chen probably would have strayed onto the demonic path and become despised by the world.

Yi Chen was even more grateful and kowtowed three times to Donghuang Ziyou. “Thank you, Your Majesty!”

He swore to himself that he would be loyal to North Mystic Heaven and repay Donghuang Ziyou’s kindness.

“Yi Chen!”

Before Yi Chen could get up, an extremely familiar voice sounded from behind.

Yi Chen turned around excitedly and saw Yao Rui flying towards him on a demon beast under Yao Tianrong’s protection.

After jumping down from the demon beast, Yao Rui excitedly ran towards Yi Chen.

Yao Tianrong was worried. “Rui’er, be careful. Don’t run too fast!”

Yi Chen went forward excitedly. “Rui’er, I succeeded!”

“Her Majesty helped me increase my cultivation level and prevented me from venturing into the demonic path. I’m a true martial artist now!”

As they spoke, the two of them had already touched each other and held each other’s hands happily.

Yao Rui smiled brightly. “I know! I know! I knew you could do it from the beginning!”

“Thank you, Rui’er!” Yi Chen was touched. “You gave me the determination to press forward. I’m lucky to have met you!”

With that, he hugged Yao Rui tightly.
